TOPIC: FATHER, LEAD ME BACK TO YOU: Go Back To Him (7)
MEMORY VERSE:
Psalms 51:11-12
“11. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.”
“12. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.”
BIBLE READING:
1 Kings 19:15-16.
“15. And the LORD said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus: and when thou comest, anoint Hazael to be king over Syria:”
“16. And Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel: and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abelmeholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy room.”
Thinking Point:
Nothing is as wasteful as poor time management and fruitless labour. When God leads, there’s no wastage.”
Today, it’s my prayer that every wasted time, resources, effort and seasons will be restore back in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.
Elijah travelled on foot for forty days and forty night, and was told to go back to where he came from, that’s another forty days and forty night journey, why? All because he put God aside before the journey. That journey of yours wouldn’t have been so tedious if you had involved God. If you have controlled that fear you would have gotten to your location long enough. Now, you have to go back the same way you came but this time around not for full resources. Elijah was to go back to anoint his replacement for not involving God initially. Oh, you are thinking of the shame of going back?
I once heard a true life story of a lady who went to a night club for the first time some days to her engagement and ended up getting drunk and was impregnated. She never knew until the day of engagement when her in-law observed that she was pregnant and the engagement was cut off. Sixteen years later they got marriage again, why? Since they went their separate ways, their lives were frustrating. What they would have settled and moved on took them sixteen wasted year before they came l together. Don’t be afraid to turn back. No amount of wrong steps can lead you back to the right step until you turn back. Go back to your call. Go back to that assignment, that marriage, that work you left due to pride and arrogance, it’s time to humble yourself and go back. God is saying go back to where you came from and put things right. Where and what do you need to work on? Forty days into the wildernesses wasn’t a small journey but it worth going back.
Good Day and God bless you.
