Eyes Of God

EYES OF GOD< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Psalm 33:13-22

 

Pray that the eyes of the Lord which run to and fro through out the whole world will locate you in this month. They will locate with you with a favorable visitation. When God remembers, it is always with favor. Also when He visits, it is always with salvation. In all of His remembrance there is visitation. Do you remember the children of < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Israel in the house of bondage (Egypt)? After over four hundred years, God remembered them and He visited them with salvation. Exodus 12:36, ÒAnd the LORD had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they granted them what they requested. Thus they plundered the Egyptians.Ó In addition to favor, He brought them out and saved them at the Red Sea that could have covered them so they could not recover. The eye of God is all that you need this month to be able to go out and come every day. Luke 1:50, ÒAnd His eyes is on those who fear Him from generation to generation.Ó Psalm 33:18, ÒBehold the eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him on those who hope in His mercy.Ó Rest assured that what you need this month are the Eyes of God which is also the mercy of God and multitudes of protection from His throne will save you. It is left for you to ask Him and He will answer. God will have mercy in Jesus name.

Backward

BACKWARD< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Genesis 19:17-26, Jeremiah 7:21-28

 

Obeying GodÕs command is the only way to go forward; disobeying His command is the way backward. Jeremiah 7:23, ÒBut this is what I commanded them, saying, Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be My people. And walk in all the ways that I have commanded you that it may be well with you.Ó His way is His commandment; His commandment is His way. Have you found out lately that your going is like going the backward way instead of upward way? God is not an incomplete God neither is He an inconsistent God. He that started a good thing for you will bring it to an expected end. Philippians 1:6, ÒBeing confident of this very thing, that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.Ó Take a moment and search where you have wronged and where you have to enter a backward way. Have you searched and found out if you have taken to the dictates of your heart? Jeremiah 7:24, ÒYet they did not obey or incline their ear, but followed the counsels and the dictates of their evil hearts, and went backward and not forward.Ó Does the verse sound familiar to your hearing? It is left for you to seek answer and correction in the pages of the word of God. There is clarity in the fact that backward going is the way of death; forward going is the way of life. Sad that < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>LotÕs wife is not around. She would have been in the best position to highlight what going backward is all about for your understanding. It is not only when you turn and take a step back that you have entered a backward journey but when you begin to look back you have also taken a backward step. Ask LotÕs wife. Take to the word of God and it will take you forward not backward.

Way To Canaan

WAY TO CANAAN< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Exodus 33:12-17

 

There are giants on the way to < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Canaan; they are agents for the enemy and they do nothing but wait for your derailment. God has placed you in the right track, but the enemy wants to derail you. On the way to Canaan, you cannot and should not just take to any way because any way will not lead you to any-where. Despite GodÕs calling of Moses as the shepherd to lead His sheep out of bondage of over four hundred years, he could not make any move without asking for His way. He did not assume any as a right way. Moses always asked God for direction. Exodus 33:13, ÒNow therefore, I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in your sight. And consider that this nation is Your people.Ó With MosesÕ requirement, it is evident that in the way of God, there is: Ability to know God, and there is also the grace of God. The way of God is the way of going up from where you are now. He has brought you out of the house of bondage in attempt to take you to the Promise Land for your inheritance. When He brought you out, he also put all in place for you to get to the promise land. All you have to do is endure the challenges of the giants along the way. When you begin to fail in hearing Him, you have entered the way of termination. Exodus 33:14, ÒAnd He said, ÔMy Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.ÕÓ The word of God is God and His word is His presence. When you spend time in His word, His word will have a place in you. You will be in the right placement in your journey to the promise land. 

Pursueant

PURSUEANT< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Exodus 14:1-9

 

Despite all the miracles and the demonstration of GodÕs hand before the eyes of Pharaoh and his people, they could not release the children of < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Israel to a permanent freedom. They let the children of Israel go because of the heaviness of GodÕs hand upon their land. Releasing the Israelites, the Egyptians turned around and began to pursue them. After all the years that God had brought you out of all that represented Egypt, Egypt has not taken a step back behind you; Egypt is still pursuing you just like it was for the children of Israel. The agent of Egypt (house of bondage) is closely behind you in an attempt to terminate the calling and divine schedule of God in your life. For the children of Israel, Pharaoh pursued them. He could not let go; he wanted to take them back as slaves. Are you in that situation? Do not to stop your cry unto God when you find the agent of bondage right behind you. The children of Israel cried, and God heard. Joshua 24:6-7, ÒSo they cried out to the Lord; and He put darkness between you and the Egyptians, brought the sea upon them, and covered them. And your eyes saw what I did in Egeypt. Then you dwelt in the wilderness a long time.Ó Concerning the representative of Egypt keeping you from your total freedom from the bondage of spiritual stagnation, sickness, financial breakthrough, and marriage problem, God will put darkness between you and that Egypt. Sea will come upon them not just to get them wet, but to cover them so that Egypt will not rise again concerning all that concerns you. It is well in Jesus name.

Order Or Disorder

ORDER OR DISORDER< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Exodus 13:17-22; Acts 9:1-9

 

Where there is no order, there is disorder. Where there is disorder, death displays itself.

2 Kings 20:1-2, ÒIn those days Hezekiah was sick and near death. And Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, went to him, Ôthus says the Lord: set your house in order, for you shall die, and not live.ÕÓ God is a God of order and that is why He expects the life of His creation to be in order. There is none that God called who does not have an order of how to respond in His calling. Has the Lord entrusted you for His assignment? Yes, He must have entrusted you with an assignment and each of His assignments have its order in the pages of His word. It does not matter how small it may look, believe it that God expects you to operate in an order that compliments His word. In any area of your life where order is expected be it your house, your marriage, or in your assigned journey, God will lead you, and you will not fail. When Apostle Paul was on his way to < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Damascus, he heard the calling of the Lord and he received order. Acts 9: 6, ÒSo he, trembling and astonished, said ÒLord, what do You want me to do? Then the Lord said to him, ÔArise and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.ÕÓ  When God brought the children of Israel out of bondage of over four hundred years, they journeyed in order. Exodus 13:18, ÒSo God led the people around by way of the wilderness of the Red Sea. And the children of Israel went up in orderly ranks out of the land of Egypt Orderliness is vital in the journey of life and it is to occupy in every area of life. Are you having orderliness in all area of GodÕs calling for your life? The way out of bondage, captivity, sudden and untimely death is walking in order of the word of God. When you walk in order, He will lead you.
