Bible Reading: Numbers 11: 24-25
Memory Verse: And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him. So the people of Israel obeyed him and did as the LORD had commanded Moses. Deuteronomy 34:9 (ESV)
…Continued from yesterday. Millions of people trooped in for the crusade and thousands of souls were rescued from the kingdom of darkness into light. There was a fresh release upon the life of Reinhard Bonnke as a result of the crusade. After the crusade in Ibadan, Reinhard Bonnke went to Ghana and had over 800,000 people in attendance. Reinhard Bonnke started making plans to come to Nigeria again but this time it will be on the platform of Christ for All Nations (CfAN). His plans worked out, he came and the crusade was successful.
This was how the ministry door was opened to Reinhard Bonnke in Nigeria through Archbishop Idahosa. The Archbishop was also instrumental in bringing to pass the prophecy of Kenneth Copeland upon his ministry. At a certain point in our life, we all need God to show us that appointed person that will open doors in our life in form of destiny helper!
Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke didn’t reach out to Benson Idahosa, but it was God that directed Archbishop Idahosa to call Bonnke which subsequently opened the nation of Nigeria unto him. You see, that is how God favours people. You don’t need to find them, they will find you! Pray today that God should cause your destiny helpers to locate you!
Lessons
1. Our different methodology as ministers shouldn’t cause for divergence, rather it should keep us in awe of the various ways God works with each of His vessels in the same body.
2. Never despise anyone especially the fathers of faith. They are custodians of ancient mantles. They may be obsolete in their methodology, but they are custodians of transgenerational heritages. If you refuse to receive what they carry due to your pride, sentiment or arrogance, you may never rise to their level talkless of surpassing them. The performance of the Bible verse, “The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former.” (Haggai 2:9a KJV) is hinged on this predicate.
3. Somebody must announce you. You can respect yourself but you cannot honour yourself. Grace flows from a vessel of higher concentration to a vessel of lower concentration (Hebrews 7:7).
Quote: Everyone agrees a person who gives a blessing is greater than the one who receives the blessing – Hebrews 7:7 (CEV)
Prophetic Decree: You will not miss the vessel sent to enlarge your coast and further fulfill your destiny, in Jesus name.
Prayer Focus
1. Thank you Lord for revealing to me how you lift men.
2. O Lord arise, connect me to the vessel sent for my enlargement, in Jesus name.
3. On the day of my impartation, I shall not be found wanting in Jesus name
4. I receive sensitivity of times and seasons, in Jesus name.
5. I receive grace to tolerate my destiny announcer, in Jesus name.
