TOPIC: GOD OF DIVERSE WAYS 7: His Ways Higher Than Ours

Memory Verse: Is. 43:15-16
“15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, The Creator of Israel, your King.” 
16 Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea And a path through the mighty waters.”

Bible Reading: Is. 55:8-9
“8 “For My thoughts  are not your thoughts,  Nor are your ways My ways,” says the LORD.  9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways,  And My thoughts than your thoughts.”
Today, being the final day on this topic, “GOD OF DIVERSE WAYS”, I will like us to know that, His ways are always far better than our planned ways. No matter how we strategize, our ways can’t be better than His Ways. He is the way maker, any way He doesn’t create can’t be made. So, His ways are far better than our ways. I see God making a way for you where you least expected and where you expected it in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.
He made a way to sustain the widow of Zarephat, when her last meal was all she had. She sacrificed the meal to open a ware house of food for herself. Before God makes a way you have a commitment to make. When you are committed to God with whatever He requests from you, you are compelling God to open a way beyond your expectation. Before God opens a way beyond your request He will always demand for your most valued treasure, your last meal, your Isaac, your faith, your time and your “you”. When you are ready to give Him what He asks, you are ready for a higher way of blessing. What are you laying at His feet to make that high way of miracle? This month, He will make a way for you, He will do beyond your expectations in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.
We desire to hear your testimonies and feedback. Kindly share with your love once also. The Lord bless you all in Jesus Precious name, Amen. Have a fruitful weekend ahead.

TOPIC: GOD OF DIVERSE WAYS 6:  The God That Calls Men

Memory Verse: Is. 43:15-16
“15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, The Creator of Israel, your King.” 
16 Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea And a path through the mighty waters.”

Bible Reading: Romans 8:30
“30  Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.”
Diverse way working God calls men into His service. He searches for who will serve in different capacity. He calls men in different ways. He called some into ministry assignment- Fivefold Ministry, some to the works of business. He called some to singing ministry, some into ‘help’ ministry and many more. God doesn’t call Christians to be just pulpit pastor, rural area pastor or  Church planting alone. Many are called by God to win soul through their gifts, kind acts and many more.
He called Abraham to leave his native land to foreign land, and all generation are traceable to Abraham  but he wasn’t called as a pastor.
He called Moses to lead the Israelite out of Egypt and He was successful in His calling. The Exodus can’t be complete without Moses’ name.
Joshua was also called, He was chosen because of his commitment to Moses and he led the Children of Israel to the promise land.
Samson was called to be a prophet from the womb unlike any of the leaders  mentioned earlier. He wasn’t a pastor nor an Evangelist but He fulfilled the calling of God upon His life regardless of his fall.
David was also called by God through his service to his father and the use of his gift. He served his father faithfully by taking care of the sheep, then he took advantage of the time to build on his talent. These two qualities attracted him to God, thereby, he was called by God. 
He called Jeremiah to be a prophet right from the womb. He called Elisha, a successful man in his calling as a business man to take over as a prophetic ministry from Elijah.
Nehemiah received the call of God through his passion for the city of God. He was successful in his calling also. 
Job was called to be wealthy, a man whose influence cut across the east. He was found righteous despite not being a Pastor or Reverend.
Every soul has the calling of God upon them. The calling  may differ from one another. He calls us into the same ministry of winning soul but with different area and specialty. Not being a pastor doesn’t mean you are not called. Not preaching, going for morning cry, or standing by the pulpit is not a prove that you are not called. God doesn’t call audible like the past, He put a burden In your heart to long for like Nehemiah. He calls through that gift that is special to you alone. God of diverse ways called everyone of us into different aspect of Christianity. Have you discovered yours? Locate it and fulfill your calling.

TOPIC: GOD OF DIVERSE WAYS 5: Mighty Man In Battle

Memory Verse: Is. 43:15-16
“15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, The Creator of Israel, your King.” 
16 Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea And a path through the mighty waters.”

Bible Reading: Ps 24:7-8
“7 Lift up your heads, O you gates! And be lifted up, you everlasting doors!  And the King of glory shall come in.
8 Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty,
The LORD mighty in battle.”
God of diverse ways is the  Man of War, Mighty Man in Battle. He has never failed for once because no one can face Him in war. He is Superior  to all. He specializes in vengeance for His children. No one ever fought against His children and prevailed because He is the Mighty man in battle. He fight in diverse ways also. He stands in for His children when their enemies try to take advantage of them. Let us check how He has showed Himself as a Mighty man on behalf of His children.
He fought the Amalekites for the Israelite. In Exo. 17:8-13, the Lord use Moses’s hand to defeat their enemies. Aaron and Hur lifted the hand of Moses up while Joshua was using His sword and they defeated the Amalekites.
In Joshua 6:20-21, the Israelite fell the wall of Jericho through a great shout, and God perfected the battle for His Children. The wall fell down flat and the Israelite defeated the Jericho citizen.
In 2 Chronicles 20, the people of Judah face three different countries who came against them in battle, and they sang songs of Praise till their enemies destroyed one another with their weapon.
God will fight for you but according to the way He had predestined it. He fights in a way that will glorify Him. He will do it in a way you won’t be able to understand than to give Him the glory. He has the greatest strategies. He is fighting your battle to victory. Just let Him handle it, He is the God of vengeance, He will stand and win the war for you in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.

TOPIC: GOD OF DIVERSE WAYS 4: My Healer – Jehovah Rapha

Memory Verse: Is. 43:15-16
“15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, The Creator of Israel, your King.” 
16 Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea And a path through the mighty waters.”

Bible Reading: Jeremiah 17:14
“14 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed;  Save me, and I shall be saved, For You are my praise.”
Diverse ways healing God heals everyone who believes and follows His ways. He uses His healing, sometimes, to win souls to Himself. His healing also come in different ways, built in faith, has His blessings comes through many many ways. Every knowledge comes through God the Jehovah Rapha. 
When King Hezekiah was sick and close to death, God sent Isaiah back to him to apply a “lumb of figs” to the boil for healing, that is herbs treatment, 
2 Kings 20:7, 
“7 Then Isaiah said, “Take a lump of figs.” So they  took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered. “
When Moses was to heal the bitter water, God instructed him to drop a tree in the water, 
Exo. 15:25, “So he cried out to the LORD, and  the LORD showed him a tree. When he cast it  into the waters, the waters were made sweet. …” That is God still using herbs for treatment.
Prophet Elisha healed a barren land and bad water with salt, 2 Kings 2:20-22. The same Elisha healed Naaman through river of Jordan, that’s healing through water.
During the dispensation of Jesus, He healed in many ways, through spoken words, Lk. 17:12-16, through laying on of hands Matt. 8:1-3, Lk. 7:11-15. God has many ways to healing.
Many felt it’s a sin to take drugs for healing, God can work through any means to attend to His children’s healing. When your faith holds on to God, He can heal you through His word, through His touch, through His servant, through drugs and through science. IVF shouldn’t have been able to produce children if God doesn’t heal barrenness through it. Tablets, capsules, injection and many other herbal drinks shouldn’t have been able to cure any sickness. God heals in many ways depending on how He decide to heal you.
He won’t heal you the way He healed others, No, your sickness may be the same but He will attend to you in a different way to gain Glory to Himself. Stop sitting on your sick  position, seek for advice to receive your healing. Atimes, herbals cure diabetes, ulcer and other sicknesses faster than drugs in the hospital. I pray you receive wisdom this morning in Jesus Mighty name for your healing, Amen.

TOPIC: GOD OF DIVERSE WAYS 3: All Sufficient God

Memory Verse: Is. 43:15-16
“15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, The Creator of Israel, your King.” 
16 Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea And a path through the mighty waters.”

Bible Reading: Philippians 4:19
 “19 And my God shall  supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
As we all know that our God, is the supplier of everything. He blesses whoever He chooses to bless and lift from poverty to wealth. He is the All Sufficient God – The El-Shaddia. He blesses everyone in different way as he desires. He has been blessing His children since the beginning of the world and He’s never run out of idea of blessing.
In the Garden of Eden, He blessed the first Man and Woman He created. He made everything available for them, despite being sent out of the Garden God’s Blessings was still with them.
He blessed Abraham in a different way by directing him to a foreign land and He accumulated wealth and became great, Gen. 20:14-18.
Isaac was also blessed in a foreign land through hard work. He went into farming when the indigenes will not utilize what they had, and He became great that He was envied. Gen. 26:12-14.
Joseph was made a rich man and a prime minister in a foreign land. Listen, there’s no where God can’t bless you. He is the God of diverse way.
David was blessed through the victory over Goliath. He enjoyed the provision of the Lord. Every where he ran to, He was blessed even from the Philistines. God can bless you through your enemy, through your friend, through strangers, through your spouse, your children might be the source of your blessing. He won’t bless you the way He blesses others. Just focus on God for His blessings. Trusting in man can make you wait long. Make God your focus and your blessings will locate you in a miraculous way. The Lord will command His blessing to locate you in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.

TOPIC: GOD OF DIVERSE WAYS 1: Way Maker.

Memory Verse: Is. 43:15-16
“15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, The Creator of Israel, your King.” 
16 Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea And a path through the mighty waters.”

Bible Reading: Jeremiah 32:17
“17 ‘Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, You have made the heavens  and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You.”
God of diverse way will work out your case in Jesus Mighty name, Amen. He has never lack different ways in handling His children’s case. Studying women with delayed in pregnancy from the word of God. The first was mother Sarah. She was married to father Abraham but couldn’t bear a child. God silenced barrenness through the Generosity of Abraham to the three Angels Gen. 18 and 21. 
The second was Rebecca, wife of Isaac . After several attempts without pregnancy, the husband prayed to God and God ended barrenness through the prayer of Isaac, Gen. 25:21-23.
The third woman was Hannah. After been mocked and reproached by Peninnah continually, she went to God with vow and her barrenness ended through vow that produce Prophet, (Samuel) 1 Samuel 1.
Manoah and His wife in the book of Judges 13. The act and way of life of both attracted God to bless them with the child, Samson. Remember, without holiness no one can see the Lord, the consistent Holy life of this couple put an end to their barrenness.
Lastly, Zachariah and Elizabeth in the book of Luke 1. Zachariah was an aged man without a child from his aged wife. But His service and prayer ended barrenness and gave them John the Baptist. He was found at the point of duty despite His childlessness.
I don’t know that situation in your life that you’ve been suggesting to God his He should handle it. God doesn’t repeat His ways. He changes the way He handle issues. Stop running to those who helped others to receive help from them. God of diverse way is whom you should run to. When He visit you in an unusual way, that’s what is called miracle. May you experience it this week in Jesus Mighty name, Amen. God of diverse way is working out your way, just follow Him with your Faith.

TOPIC: GOD OF DIVERSE WAYS 1: Way Maker.

Memory Verse: Is. 43:15-16
“15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, The Creator of Israel, your King.” 
16 Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea And a path through the mighty waters.”

Bible Reading: Is. 43:18-19.
“18 “Do not remember the former things,  Nor consider the things of old.
19 Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert.
One Big and Mighty act of God is the ability to work in diverse ways, to handle the same challenges in diverse ways, to heal the same sickness using different means, this is the God we serve. The creator and controller of everything. He is the Most Righteous, Most Glorious, the Ancient of Days and the Unquestionable God, we Worship you Father.
When He made the way on the red sea, He told Moses to use His rod and the waters stood like wall, and  dry land appeared. The children of Israel walked on dry land, Ex. 14:19-22. 
When they got to Jordan, God instructed Joshua, the Priest, bearing the ark of Covenant, should step in the river first, and when they did, the river stood still, rivers were failed and cut off from their source, dry land appeared, and the children of Israel walked on dry land, Joshua 3:14-17.
When Elijah and Elisha got to the same Jordan, it was Elijah’s mantle that God used in parting Jordan, to and fro, the same day, 2 Kings 2:8-14.
Why didn’t God use staff for the Red sea, and Jordan in the day of Joshua and Elijah? Because He has multiple ways of handling issues, He doesn’t repeat His act. He is God of many ways. He said I will make road in the wilderness, didn’t He did that in the days of Israelite? For Forty Years, they walked and created path for their selves. 
This week, God of diverse way will attend to your issues, He will make a way in the wilderness for you, man will question your miracle and God will prove Himself in your life in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

Week 37, Day 7 
Saturday, 18th September 2021.
 
TOPIC: GET UP AND MOVE ON 7. Forget The Fall And Focus On God

Memory Verse: Micah 7:8
“8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me.”

Bible Reading: Hebrews 12:1-2
“1 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so  great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight,  and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross,  despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
If every great men and women will focus on their fall, none will be great as they are today. Donnie McClukin once said in the lyrics of his song, 
“We fall down, and we get up,
We fall down, and we get up,
We fall down, and we get up,
For a saint is just a sinner who falls down,
And get up.”
When you focus on what people will say when you get up, you will never rise. I’ve heard of persons who were raped and also children born as products of rape, rejected by friend but today, they’ve made it and are still standing because they face the beat. There are men of God who missed it in life in time pass, even in ministry, but turned back to God and they are making waves for God. Forget what people will say, do, or how they will look at you, just forge ahead.
The book of Hebrew said, we have a host of witness watching us, these should be our focus not the world around us. Lay aside those negative reasons that can stop you from raising. Make Jesus your focus. Forget those who has written you off.  Look up to Jesus who still believes in you. You are meant for the top. You can’t turn back now, it’s too late to quit. Think of when you started the race, remember what you’ve gone through. Think of the promises of God ahead. It’s worth moving forward. The host of Heaven are counting on you. Jesus is counting on you. Don’t give up now. Make Jesus your focus not your criticizers. Listen to God, He still cares about you. I see you rising again In Jesus Mighty name, Amen.

TOPIC: GET UP AND MOVE ON 6. You Are Coming Out Renewed

Memory Verse: Micah 7:8
“8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me.”

Bible Reading: Daniel 11:35
“35 And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end; because it is still for the appointed time.”
God always make situations to work in His favour. Those dark and bad situations can still reveal the glory of God. In any situation you find yourself, there is always something positive about it but until you go through you might not be able to detect it. He uses every condition that happens to both, the righteous and unrighteous to win soul. Your situation is a lesson for someone far or near to draw them closer to God.
Our Bible reading said, when the righteous falls, it is to refine them, purify them and draw them closer to Himself. From every tribulation, challenges, and falls, there is a lesson to hold on to. When King Nebuchadnezzar fell from human to animal, it was to teach him about pride. God wanted him to drop the mentality of “I did it all alone.” After the fall, he was more humble than ever before. That backsliding of yours is for your good, to rebuild, and remold you. To make you become the real you He designed.
As you are rising, identify what to drop in your life and what to pick up. Try and get what God is telling to you change as you are getting up. Don’t focus too much on how you fell but focus on why you fell and correct it. Every temptation that befall us is traceable to our ways of life, what we neglect to work on. God is ready to refine you, to purify and make you whiter. Identity what should rise with you as you are getting up. By the power in the name of Jesus, may we understand better what God is saying about our situations in Jesus precious name, Amen.

TOPIC: GET UP AND MOVE ON 5. Multiple Rising For the Righteous

Memory Verse: Micah 7:8
“8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me.”

Bible Reading: Prov. 24:15-16
“15 Do not lie in wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; Do not plunder his resting place;
16 For a righteous man may fall seven times, And rise again, But the wicked shall fall by calamity.”
As a righteous one, falling may happen many times in the race of life. Things may be good for a while and changes in the next second. The acts of the righteous man attract envy, create enmity which brings both spiritual and physical attacks to the righteous. Some of these attacks may lead to falling or losses but one thing is sure, the righteous will always overcome and stand tall. Job was a good example of a righteous man who went through a lot as a result of the devil’s wickedness. But at the end of it all, He came out on top, victories and in multiplication. 
King Solomon said, for a righteous man “MAY” falls seven times, it’s under may be, but the truth is this, he will rise again. If he falls countless times, the number may be more than seven, he will always rise again. It’s only the wicked that is meant to fall and never rise again. The righteous are meant to always be above, you will rise  again in Jesus Mighty name.
I don’t know how you fell, why you fell or through whom you fell, but this I know, as long as you are righteous, you will surely rise again. I decree a lifting for you  today, all that you need to rise, above that sickness, above that delay, above that child issue, above marriage issues, depression, suppression and opposition be release to you in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen. Every power, human, spirit, authority, agent, that will not let you rise, I speak against them in the precious name of Jesus to bow in Jesus Mighty Name, your rising begin in Jesus name, the needed help present itself to you, Arise and move, for your strength in increases in Jesus wonderful name, Amen and Amen.
Take the step of faith and get up.
