GRACE

Genesis 1:1-2
Genesis 1:14-18

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep and the spirit of God was hovering over the waters.

And God said, ‘Let there be light and there was light.

The aforementioned was the order of things in the period when God created the heavens and the earth.

However when God said, “Let there be light and there was light the order of things or rather the status quo was disrupted.

And the moment the status –quo was disrupted then chaos was introduced on the face of the earth.

Chaos is the disruption of the status-quo.

The disruption of the status-quo is the change in the known order of life.

The moment God said, “Let there be light and there was light, life as it was known or rather the order of life as it was known was thrown into a disruption.

Every now and then God is getting ready to do what he has never done before he introduces chaos in the place of order.

And when this happens order is substituted for chaos and chaos comes in the place of order.

What you have known as order ceases to be the moment God introduces chaos with the purpose of rising up a new standard and a new ways of doing things.

In Genesis chapter 1:14-18 God said,” Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the nigh, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth. And it was so.

God made two great lights-the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night.He also made the stars.

God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from the darkness.
And God saw that it was good.

In critical analysis and observation Genesis chapter 1:14-18 institutionalizes a new world order far different from the era of Genesis 1:1-2 where the earth was formless and empty.

A new era that was hitherto ushered in by chaos and the disruption of order.

Every now and then God is about to introduce a new order of life he uses chaos as the harbinger.

God has the ability to introduce a problem on the face of the earth that he alone can solve.

In order to remind the world that he alone is sovereign and that his face is worthy to be sought by everything that has got breath.

God has the propensity to disarm the world of its knowledge and intelligence as much as its power using a global catastrophe that he alone has an answer to.

The number 5 is symbolic of an institution and an embodiment of the grace of God as well as the hand of God.

Wherever the hand of God is there also is the favor of God.

Wherever the hand of God is there also is the revelation of God.

Wherever the hand of God is there also is the gift of God.

Wherever the hand of God is there also is the opportunity to have the wisdom and the knowledge of God.

Wherever the hand of God is there also the grace of God.

The whole world seems to be going through a major catastrophe at present with the going on corona virus pandemic and all the major cities of the world are on lock down.

Hamlets and subways that were hitherto filled with people are now deserted because everyone seems to be social distancing and in self-quarantine.

There is fear of the unknown gripping the world population because of a pandemic that is void of a cure.

Scientists and the most brilliant of researchers are all perplexed at the spread and rate at which the virus is spreading and killing populations.

Presently the entire global medical field is fighting a losing battle even though we believe the battle shall be eventually won.

But to say the least what does this all mean?

God is doing a new thing and introducing a new way of life and the present chaos is only an usher of the new wave of divine grace that God is going to out-pour upon the face of the earth.

This grace will be the definition of business unusual.

The way the world operated before this chaos came into our midst is going to be no more.

A new way of doing things in the world has come upon as and the institution of that new era is the grace of God.

If the grace of God is defined as unmerited favor then the favor of God is going to increase in the world as much as the very presence of God almighty.

Thus social distancing is not only designed by man to flatten the curve of the present virus but it’s an occasion for self-purification in the event of meeting God on a level we have never met him before.

THE SIMPLICITY OF GOD

Matthew 19:26
Psalms 136:1
Hebrew 4:16
Genesis 1:28


In the simplicity of God we understand that the hand of God has never shortened nor grew weary at any one time.

God has decreed the functionality and the propensity of the sun, the moon, the stars and all the galaxies and sat back to watch how every decree plays out.

The obedience of those that God has issued a decree upon to function according to the will of God is in the effectiveness with which they execute the decree.

And this effective functionality of those that have been decreed upon underscores the pleasures of the Almighty God.

According to God-history there was a divine decree that man ought to be fruitful, and increase in number; replenish the earth and subdue it.

Thus in executing this decree man is considered obedient to the will of God and the obedience of mankind towards the decree of God underscores the pleasures of the Almighty God.

God is simple because he issues a clarion call that everyone should come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find help in the time of need.

Consequently we give thanks to the Lord for his good and his mercy endures forever no matter how far away your character may be from God whence you go boldly to the throne of grace there is no doubt that your will receive the mercy of God .

And it’s the mercy of God that fosters and facilitates repentance as much as the turning away from one’s evil and corrupt ways.

God is slow to anger and quick to forgive our corruption and evil deeds and therein is registered his simplicity.

Indeed and in fact God does not have room for impossibilities cause it’s decreed in Matthew 19:26 when Jesus looked at them and said,” with man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.

Imagine how God almighty uses a pandemic to cast the entire population of the world into a period of consecration.

The nation of Egypt was once the most powerful nation on the face of the earth and the pharaoh was the most powerful individual across the parameters of the earth.

The pharaoh was so revered to the degree that he was considered a god.

However when God wanted to prove to the Egyptians and the pharaoh that he is the God of all power and all might he consecrated Moses for 40yrs.

Preparing him for usage in the event of subduing the gods of the Egyptians and to also prove to Pharaoh that there is an almighty God above the gods of the Egyptians.

2020 is a very special year because it’s the year of divine consecration.

When you add 2020 you get 40 and 40 is the number of divine consecration (and divine appointment) in preparation for the showcasing and displaying of the glory of God on a level unbeknownst.

When God was getting ready to display his glory in salvation and the power of redemption of mankind from the corruption of sin, he consecrated Jesus the son of David (the son of man) for 40 days and nights preparing him to be the lamb that takes away the sins of mankind.


In this period in time God is using his simplicity to consecrate the population of the world.

Drawing the population of the world unto the throne of grace to obtain mercy so as to prepare the population of the world for a rare display of his glory and power upon the face of earth.

Every now and then God is going to do a mighty and glorious wonder upon the face of the earth in a specific time in history he does use the most simplicity of things as a platform and launching pad for his great work.

God is never in the complexity but he is always in the simplicity.

The entire world is presently on tip-toe anticipation waiting to see the glory of the almighty God like never before but its launch pad is in the simplicity of God that is underlined in totally surrendering one’s trust and faith in God.

CONSECRATION

Exodus 3:1-22
Matthew 4:1-11

In preparation for the will of God to be made manifest through the one God has called, chosen and anointed, they has got to be a process to be endured called consecration.

Many times than not consecration has been erroneous perceived as an event but it far be it from an event but rather a process.

Moses endured the wilderness for 40yrs tending the sheep of his father in law Jethro but all this time God was taking him through the process of consecration.

And the reason why Moses had to endure 40yrs of Consecration in the wilderness was so that God would prepare him to deliver the children of Israel out of the bondage they were suffering in Egypt.


It had to take 40yrs of consecration because Moses had spent 40yrs in Egypt as a first class citizen and it needed 40yrs to flash all the corruption of Egypt out of the disposition and out of the spirit of Moses.

So that he can be used of God to carry out a mission designed of God to deliver the children of Israel out of bondage.

In analyzing and considering the different stages or rather the different circumstances in which God takes us through the process of consecration you will find out that these stages and circumstances surrounding the process of consecration are not conducive to natural existence.

According to theologians and historians Moses spent 40yrs in the wilderness with only but a few bare essentials to survive on.

Bare essentials that were not actually conducive to natural existence.

One of the most important lessons to be learnt in the process of consecration is that God trains us to overcome nature and the things that nature throws in our way.

This is crucial because consecration prepares us to be used of God so as to overcome nature and to subject nature to the will of God in a given space and in a given period of time.

It took Jesus Christ 40 days and nights of fasting to be able to endure the process of consecration and when he returned from the process of consecration, he was able to subject the will of nature to the will of God Almighty.

In the process of consecration sometimes it gets lonely and really dark and once it gets dark separation occurs and when separation occurs then graduation comes into your life.

At the graduation stage of consecration the quality of your life drastically takes on a new form.

The choices that you make begin to seem foreign and unique to the former choices that you made before the process of consecration.

When Jesus went to be baptized by John the Baptist he came from his father’s carpentry shop but immediately after being baptized he went to the wilderness to endure the process of consecration and immediately the process was done Jesus did not go back to his father’s carpentry shop but he went in a different direction as he was led by the spirit of God.

Ultimately consecration is a process that is designed by God to change the very map of your life and indeed the direction of your life as much as the routine of your life.

In the process of consecration self-reflection and divine reflection embrace each other so that a new ideology comes to form into your life.

Without forgetting that consecration is also occasion for purity,cleansing and holiness.

In the era of corona virus people resorted to social distancing but in actual sense it was God drawing the globe to himself since the worship centers of that day were drawing masses to churches for the idea of collecting funds so that the leaders of those worship center may enrich themselves all the more.

The focus was never on God but on accumulation of material possessions hence when social distancing was the only effective measure to curb corona virus throngs of people in the population of the world were perpetually forced into a period of self –reflection and divine reflection where the focus was only on God and not material possession.

Those that were marketing healing as a tool to draw masses to their self-founded worship centers were left with nothing to market because there before the world was a global pandemic that they would not claim to heal and hence they were forced to close their worship centers.

Thus God proving that he alone has power and in order to draw global attention to his very essence all he need is a pandemic of global proportion so as to perpetually set the world into a season of consecration that the world was hitherto not prepared for.

This is vital and critical because in the aftermath of this global pandemic called corona virus God will show off his glory in the world like never before cause the period of consecration ushered in by the pandemic would have purified and cleansed the world in preparation for the glory of God like never before.

DO NOT RUN AWAY

Exodus 3:1-6


When God calls you to walk with him, he has also called you to a place of holiness.

The place of holiness is a place of receiving divine revelation.

And the place of divine revelation is a place that human sensual perception perceives as the place of trouble, suffering, confusion and challenges as much as a place of minimal or bare essentials.

It’s no surprise then that when God calls us unto himself and to walk with him then he must first off-shed and off load us of unworthiness.

The off-shedding and off-loading that God does after he has called us to walk with in him in the place of divine revelation as much as in the place of holiness is and appears as if it’s a place of suffering to the canal mindset.

But indeed and in-fact, it’s all we need to walk and to talk to God in his holy presence.

Moses spent 40yrs at the back of the desert living a lifestyle of minimal and bare essentials but what Moses did not realize was that even though the place that he was living was of minimal and bare essentials; it was both divine and holy.

It was both divine and holy in that Moses needed to be at the back of the desert for 40yrs being shaped by the experiences at the back of the desert in preparation of the divine assignment that God had pre-dated for him for the beginning of time.

And when the nith degree of the divine revelation in his life came to its fullness, a fire in the bush appeared unto Moses because God had found it fit to give Moses marching orders into his divine assignment.

The fire in the bush experience scared Moses in that he thought of running away, but if Moses runs away then that means he is going to be running away from his divine assignment.

And the experience that Moses wants to run away from is the very same experience that Moses needs to be able to receive a manual on how is it that he is going to carry out his assignment in God.

It’s in this moment in time that Moses should stand his ground even though he is tremendously in freight ( in fear) because this is a crucial moment in his life.

Everything is about to change in this very moment in time and Moses should not run away even though everything in him tells him to run away.


All the 40yrs of struggle and trouble that Moses has been made subject to are getting ready to make sense in this experience of the fire in the bush.
It’s a troubling and stressful scene but it’s what Moses needs for his life to go to the next level in the glory, honor and power of God.

I am talking now to the countless of you who have been called of God and to walk with God but struggle and trouble as much as fear wants to make you run away but I implore unto you not run away from the presence of God.

And because struggle and trouble have refused to let go out of your life , now you want to run away from the presence of the most high God.
However, what you don’t understand and realize is that the place that you want to run away from is a holy ground.

It’s a holy ground because it’s a place where God has set you up so as to receive divine revelation and direction in order for you to fulfill the mandate of God upon the face of the earth.

God is getting ready to give you marching orders into your next course in life thus the struggles and troubles plus the confusion that are round you should not make you run away from the presence of God Almighty.

The unique and sudden persuasion that; you have towards God is indicative of the fact that God is calling you for an assignment that he himself designed for you before the foundations of time.

2020-A Special, and a Unique Divine Appointment

Luke 2:22-40


If we are to consider any given year as a period then we can confidently argue and state that 2020 is going to be a special and a unique divine period.

It is a special and a unique divine period of appointment not for a position of assignment and not an occasion to receive matching order or instructions.

However, it is a special and a unique divine period of a two kinds of prophetic fulfillment.

The first kind of prophetic fulfillment is the fulfillment of divine promise and the second kind of fulfillment is the fulfillment of the will of God.

The promise of God is born out of how man responds to the call of God.

However, the will of God is God's initiative towards humankind.

In this period, God will order your footsteps and position you into encountering and coming into contact with his will and his promise towards your life so as that you may bear witness.

In the book of Luke 2:28 we meet a righteous and devout man by the names of Simon and a woman by the names of prophetess Anna.

Both Simon and prophetess Anna operate under the influence of the spirit of the Almighty God.

And by virtue of the fact that they influenced by the spirit of Almighty they divinely find themselves setup for an appointment with the Lord Jesus Christ the savior when he is only 40 days old in the temple of Jerusalem.

This appointment and meeting is special, unique and divine because it is supposed to represent the nation of Israel and the nations of the gentiles.

In the meeting, Simon encounters Jesus Christ the savior in his infancy and immediately bears witness to the fulfillment of the promise God.

For Simon had a promise from God pressed upon his life that he will not die till he bears witness to the messiah and redemption of Israel, the light of revelation to the gentiles and the glory of God to Israel.

While in the same meeting, prophetess Anna encounters Jesus Christ the savior in his infancy and bears witness to the fulfillment of the will of God.

Henceforth the meeting with the Jesus Christ the savior meant two things for both Simon and prophetess Anna.

For Simon it was the bearing of witness to the fulfillment of the promise of God.

While to prophetess Anna, it was the bearing of witness to will of God.

In other wards in the period of 2020 they is going to be several opportunities for you to bear witness to the fulfillment of divine promise as made unto you by God; as much a period to bear witness to the fulfillment of the will of God for your life.

At 40 days old, Jesus also known as the infant God in that particular moment in time entered into the temple of the Almighty in Jerusalem (center of global religious affairs), being ushered by mother Mary and Joseph.

Immediately upon entering the temple of the Almighty God in Jerusalem the 40 days old, Jesus draws the attention of Simon (a devout righteous man) and an elder in the temple.

As if that was not enough, the 40 days old Jesus draws the attention of prophetess Ann (who has been fasting and praying, day and night for several decades around about the temple of Almighty God in Jerusalem.

When the 40 days old Jesus enters the temple of the Almighty God in Jerusalem two things happen: Simone enters into the promise of God while prophetess Ann enters into the will of God for her life.

Prophetess Ann is considered the only prophetess in the New testament simple because he experienced a prophetic encounter upon meeting the 40 days old Jesus.

Conversely, in the period of 2020, which equates to number 40 you will enter the promises of God upon your life as much as the will of God Almighty for your life.

After rotating around in the wilderness for 40 years, the nation of Jesus entered the Promised Land.

After 40 days and nights on the top of mountain, Sinai Moses received the 10 commandments immediately after experiencing a special and a unique divine appointment with God.

After fasting for 40 days and nights in the desert, Jesus entered and started to operate his divine assignment.

After 40 years at the back of the desert, Moses experienced a special and a unique divine appointment with God in the event of the burning bush.

Henceforth in regards to the aforementioned in the period of 2020 you will have a special and a unique divine appointment that will usher you into a place where you will bear witness to the fulfillment of the promises of God in your life in as much as the will of God for your life.

In the period of 2020 you will understand that the reason why you been through too much yet you have not lost your life is entirely based on the fact that God gave you a revelation.

In addition, the revelation had to be-fulfilled despite the tremendous odds that are against you.

Nothing has the propensity to destroy your life before the revelation and the promise of God upon your life has been-fulfilled.

In the period of 2020, the revelation of God rested upon your life shall manifest.

The preservation of your life has been by revelation and the promise of God in your life.

However, in 2020 your life will be preserved and sustained by the manifestation, and fulfillment; of the revelation, and the promise of God upon your life.


The testimony of what God will do for you in 2020 will be a revelation and a light to them that are non- believers and glory to them that are called the people and the children of God.

Restitution

psalm 126:1-3

1 When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion,it was as if we were dreaming.2 Then our mouths were filled with laughter and our tongues with joyful songs. Then the nations said, “The Lord has done spectacular things for them.”

Luke 6:38

Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.”



In an attempt to fully understand the meaning behind the term restitution you can execute intellectual liberty by breaking the term into two words namely: Rest and institution; a combination of which renders the term restitution.

What is rest?

Rest is a both a psychological and spiritual state of being that is void or missing of pressure, tension, regret, remorse, pain, sorrow, sadness, misery, lack, bitterness, hate, truth , understanding, knowledge and discontentment.

And a psychological and spiritual state of being that is full of joy, peace, comfort, confidence, trust, contentment and thankfulness.

What is an institution?

An institution is a physical state of being that is made up of tangible and practical means of value and particles of value addition and increased value.

Hence with the aforementioned definitions restitution can be known as an institution of rest or a rest institution.

An institution of rest or a rest institution can be termed as physical, spiritual, and psychological state of being full of joy and several means of value addition and increased value.

The attempt or rather the effort of adding and increasing the value of an idea or even an individual is called institutionalizing.

Institutionalization is a process that requires and demands for practical and tangible establishments and measures to be built around an idea as much as an individual.

Once a constructed building is established upon a previously empty plot of land then the plot of land that was previously void of a house or a constructed building becomes institutionalized.

It's institutionalized because practical and tangible increased value has been put upon it in order to guarantee rest.

Restoration is the gaining of another level of value after losing a previously existing level of value.

Restoration can be defined as the gaining of two levels of value after having lost one level of value.

Conversely restitution is a term that intellectually, spiritually and psychologically labors to define that which is beyond restoration.

Restitution is the gaining of that which is much more than restoration.

Additionally restitution attempts to define a situation of having lost one level of value and then you gain much more than 100 levels of value.

If you did not lose anything then you can't be poised to gain any form of restitution.

For everything that you lost and for everyone who walked out of your life and for everyone who mishandled, mistreated you and compromised your goodness and kindness God is giving you the gift of restitution.

The gift of restitution ensures that you gain much more than what you think you lost.

Once the gift of restitution comes in your life then you will discover that whoever walked out of your life was of less value.

They had to walk out of your life that you may discover how less of value they are and how your life is of high value.

As a result of the gift of restitution in life you realize that whatever material things that you lost where not as expensive in value as what you about to gain.

Cheap and of less value were the people who walked out of your life.

They needed to walk away and abandon you even though you were good to them because they were too cheap to see your value in their life.

God is going to cause everyone who thought you lost something of value to come by in order to make them understand you did not lose anything but instead you gained much more.

The spirit of regret and remorseful-ness is arresting everyone who walked out of your life as they realize that you of more value than they previously thought and that if they knew better they would not have compromised you and ill-treated you.

In the bible it declares that "when the lord restored the captivity of Zion we looked as those that dream....."

However when the gift of restitution comes into your life every one that denied you an opportunity, a platform and a decent way of life will look and behold you as though they in a dream that torments during day time.

Them that walked away from you because they did not see your value will live in regret because of the gift of restitution that God has bestowed upon your life this day.

Far From my Last Breath

Luke 23:46
Then Jesus called out in a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commit My Spirit." And when He had said this, He breathed His last.


There is a goal and an objective for which God inserted his breath of wind /air within the circumference of your body and physical entity.

The goal and objective for which my body carries around the breath of God on my inside is not without a time frame.

For as much as every goal & purpose has got a timeline so is the breath of God with a timeline in my body.

There is an assignment for me to carry out in the earth but I can only carry out the assignment with the facilitation of the breath of God.

As long as the assignment, the goal for which I find myself in the earth has not been fulfilled then am still far from my last breath.

In the event that he had finished his goal upon the face of the earth, Jesus gave up the ghost.

Conversely, after Jesus' assignment and goal was accomplishment in the earth, Jesus breathed his last breath underpinning it with the declarations “it’s finished.

Indeed and in fact you were introduced upon the earth to achieve a goal on behalf of God.

It’s not your goal but rather its God’s goal for your life in the earth.

The goal of God for your life upon the earth is the assignment of your life on the earth and that goal is the goal of your very existence.

Without that goal then your life is void of meaning.

The meaning of your life is in your capacity to fully recognize and appreciate the goal of your very existence cause without understanding the goal of your existence then life ceases to matter.

Life is nothing but a poor player that struts back and forth, like a story told by an idiot full of fury but signifying nothing.

The aforementioned is true every now and then you find your life at a place with no goal and no objective in alignment to the existence of your breath for the life of you.

The goal of Jesus' life was to reconcile mankind to God through death.

Thus when he breathed his last on that hill of Calvary 2019 years ago it only met that the goal of his life was accomplished.

As long as you fully aware of your goal and the very purpose of the breath of God on the inside of you then you always be far from your breath till the day you accomplish your divine goal upon the earth.

The threats against your life may all together come against you in full throttle but since you in the realms of your life's goal then you going to overcome by the grace of God.

God's hand is always rested upon the life of an individual who has discovered his goal and divine purposes in life.

The hand of God is rested upon that individual to keep, to protect and to cover.

If there is a anything to be said about the hand of God then it’s that it represents the favor, and the Grace, the gift, the revelatory experience from God, the divine opportunities that God sets before a man who has discovered his divine goal in God Almighty.

And finally the hand of God represents the mercy of God that endures for every.

Consequently, when the hand of God is rested upon my life I am far from my last breath because the favour of God is my portion.

Once the favour of God is laid upon my life then I can attract and draw all the necessary tools I need to succeed in life.

The hand of God is upon my life that is why the mercy of God is with me to ensure am far from my last breath before I fulfill the mandate of God Almighty upon your life.

The mercy God will ensure that you endure all things that threaten your life and the prosperity of the same.

With no doubt you far from your last breath because God’s hand is with you and the gift of God is with you to bring you before greatness.

Indeed and in fact when the hand of God is with you and on your life the grace of God is fighting on your life's behalf to make sure you conquer.

The hand of God to be over your life means that divine opportunities from God will be your guidance so that you tap into the incredible.
