TRUSTING
THE ARM OF FLESH? – Saturday November 19th2016
Memorise:
Who art thou, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel, thou shalt become a plain:
And he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace,
grace unto it. Zachariah 4:7
Read: 2nd Chronicles
32:1-7 (KJV)
1 After
these things, and the establishment thereof, Sennacherib king of Assyria came,
and entered into Judah, and encamped against the fenced cities, and thought to
win them for himself.
2 And when Hezekiah saw that
Sennacherib was come, and that he was purposed to fight against Jerusalem,
3 He took counsel with his princes and
his mighty men to stop the waters of the fountains which were without the city:
and they did help him.
4 So there was gathered much people
together, who stopped all the fountains, and the brook that ran through the
midst of the land, saying, Why should the kings of Assyria come, and find much
water?
5 Also he strengthened himself, and
built up all the wall that was broken, and raised it up to the towers, and
another wall without, and repaired Millo in the city of David, and made darts
and shields in abundance.
6 And he set captains of war over the
people, and gathered them together to him in the street of the gate of the
city, and spake comfortably to them, saying,
7 Be strong and courageous, be not
afraid nor dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor for all the multitude that is
with him: for there be more with us than with him:

MESSAGE
There is
nothing you want to become in life that you cannot be, when you leave your life
in the hands of the Almighty God.There is nothing you want to achieve in life that you cannot achieve
through the help of God. Man is limited; therefore there is a limit to how far
he can help you. With God on your side, there is no mountain that cannot become
a plain. Coming across a mountain already reveals to you that you need God’s
support. Most times, when God wants to give you a testimony that will cause men
to marvel, He wraps it up in a mountain and presents it to you. At such times,
you don’t focus on the problem, but on the one who can solve the problem. Open
Heavens Saturday 19 November 2016:-Trusting the arm of flesh? David
did not focus on Goliath and his size, he instead focused on the God of Israel
and the rest is history.
Those who
put their trust in flesh will never have peace. They are never sure of what
will happen to them next. You can live in peace when you know that the Lord is
by your side no matter what happens. With God on your side, you can look into
your glorious future and walk into it as a victor. There will be battles, but
with the Almighty God on your side, you are already a victor. After I became
the General Overseer, there were mountains I could never have imagined as
plains. There were storms and battles, but in the midst of these events, I
enjoyed God’s backing because He was the one who called me. This is why I pity
those who put their trust in the arm of flesh. The man you are looking at today
may be dead tomorrow, but there is a God in Heaven who never dies. The
politician you look up to may lose the election tomorrow but there is a God who
makes kings. He is the one who pulls one down and lifts the others. If you want
to experience a permanent turnaround in your life, you have to cry to the
Almighty God concerning that unpleasant situation and you will see help coming
your way.
Do you
desire to move from being mocked to being celebrated? Then turn to God. Do you
want to operate in the miraculous? Turn to God. Have you been ignored and
people are trying to push you out of relevance? Cry to God. 19 November 2016
Open Heavens. Have people written you off as ‘never can succeed’? Cry to Jesus
and you will see God arise to attend to your case. With God on your side, those
arms of flesh who told you that without them you won’t make it will be the ones
to ask you “WHO DID IT?” And you will be able to confidently reply them by
saying “JESUS, OH MY GOD, WOW!”
Key
point
When
Jesus is your root, you can never be uprooted by the devil.
