KING OF < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>EGYPT< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Exodus 2:23-25, 3:1-10

They were in bondage for years and years and their calling to God was not a characterized one. It could have been that they were hiding the pain or they were suffering with a smile. Also, it could have been that they could not see where God wanted them to see. As a result of the death of the King of Egypt, the story of the Israelites changed. Exodus 2:23, ÒNow it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out: and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.Ó The point here is, pray to God that anything, situation or any person that is representing King of Egypt (King of Bondage), should die a permanent death in your land. When the king of Egypt died in the land where the children of Israel have been in bondage, they were able to see the need to groan and cry for freedom. You need to be freed into GodÕs service, but with bondage that has been keeping you down, you remain stagnated. When the king died, the children of Israel moved God with a characterized call–a call that made God to act. Exodus 2:25, ÒAnd God looked upon the children of Israel and God acknowledge them.Ó GodÕs acknowledgement is all that will terminate your entire struggle from bondageÑeven bondage from over four hundred years. Ask God that whatever has taken reign over your life, whatever is not of God, whatever is representing the king of Egypt should die just as it was for the children of Israel.

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

Psalm 119:1-16

Psalm 119:1-2, ÒBlessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD! Blessed are those who keep His testimonies, who seek Him with the whole heart!Ó When you begin to see that God is there, that He is a living God, how you believe in Him will take you beyond human understanding. It is the will of God for His children to grow. John 6:40, ÒAnd this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.Ó Can you see Him as being there for you and living? What you see you will seek, what you seek you will keep, what you keep you will heed. When you heed what you have seen in His word, you will be deep in Him. Faith comes by hearing (Romans < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>10:17). Also, faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1). Whenever your hearing becomes seeing, awareness of being guided and being led by GodÕs direction will begin to reign and rule in your life. The level of your walk with God is not limited. It is also not achieved by determination; it is by the grace of God. Personalize God as yours (David did), then begin to see Him as being there for you always. God will instruct and teach you in the way you should go; He will guide you with His eye (Psalm 32:8). It is all about God directing you.

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

1 Kings < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>7:12-22

At every prayer meeting, you are the loudest; there is no prayer group in town that you do not participate in. You wonder why it seems your prayer is not being answered. Are you someone that does not have to travel across to every prayer session and yet your prayer seems to be hitting the roof? The word of God is true and amen. He has never lied and he will never lie. His words are what He says it will be. 2 Chronicles 7:14, ÒIf my people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.Ó God wants to hear your prayer, but your pride has formed a cloud of denial for your prayer. Turning away from wickedness cannot be achieved because pride is having a place in your life. Can you now see why you need the Spirit of God to break into your life so you can make your prayer life a power house? God is a merciful God, and when you go back to Him, cry to Him for help and ask for a divine intervention that will help your prayer life. God meant what He said and until pride is permanently washed off from your life, you will not be clean enough to approach the ground where God answers prayer. You wonder why you asked for some things and get it despite your pride and wicked ways? God is longsuffering and He wants to continue to give you chances for redemption. It is time for you to move from the bottom of Prayer Mountain to the top. Ask God to take away every garment of pride and decorate you with garments of humility. 

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

Mark 5:25-34

Despite her sickness, her disease, and every kind of limitation, she could not be held back from getting her healing. She had a name, but being identified by her problem became her portion. She was not called by her name but by her disease. The woman with the issue of blood was not by accident, it was by act of faith. She had an issue of the blood for twelve years. Physicians, rather than help, put her through suffering, spent all she had, and made her sickness worse. God is the healing healer and nothing is difficult for Him to do. In your helplessness, what are you hearing? Which name are they calling you? What is it that people are communicating to you about your sickness? The woman with the issue of blood heard right and acted right for her to be healed. Mark 5:27, ÒWhen she heard about Jesus, she came behind Him in the crowd and touched His garment.Ó All she needed to do was to hear about Jesus. She did not question the power of God, nor wait to be pleaded to about seeking Jesus. She broke through a thronging crowd and touched Jesus from behind. Mark < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>5:28-29, ÒFor she said, ÔIf only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well. Immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the affliction.ÕÓ Today, be careful of what you hear or who you listen to. There is hope for you if you will begin to listen to Jesus. Ignore the thronging crowd, move and touch Him, He will heal your sickness.

PATIENCE IN WAITING< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Isaiah 64:1-6,

Is there any area of life where you are trusting God for a miracle? If you do not have any, there will be a time coming where you will have a need to wait on Him with patience. Patience is what it takes to wait on God. It is one thing to know there is a need for patience in waiting, it is another to actually experience waiting on God for a need. You that have a need for waiting, trust God and He will deliver; He is also the God of the eleventh hour. That is, He will show up when it seems that there is no way out so that you can appreciate Him enough to elevate His Holy name at the top of your heart. God knows you have a need to bring before Him, and He will wait for you to take your need to Him. Taking your need is the demonstration you recognize you have a living God. Isaiah 30:18, ÒTherefore the LORD will wait, that He may be gracious to you; and therefore He will be exalted, that He may have mercy on you. For the LORD is a God of justice; blessed are those who wait for Him.Ó What do you expect of a jealous God? The answer is, give Him an unfailing attention. He gets your attention in your waiting because where there is jealousy, there will be love. He is a loving God. Wait on Him, do not give up. Get patience and He will attend to your need at the best possible hour. The Prophet Isaiah testifies that He is God who acts for those that wait on Him. (Isaiah 64:4). Be patient in your waiting, He will not fail; He will act on your behalf.
