The Objective II

By

“Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint”  Prov.29:18  [ESV]

I am a student of military campaigns and warfare in history. The study of great military campaigns has revealed universal principles crucial for every battlefield victory. Guess what? These principles are rooted in the Bible. These great generals throughout history actually learned the principles of war from the Bible and there are twelve of them. God has a lot to teach us about how to effect total victory in our lives through these principles. It does not matter whether you are a business person, an entrepreneur, a solopreneur, a freelancer, a professional, or a stay-at-home mom. These principles will save your life. In fact, these principles will give you victory as you deploy them, in the Mighty Name of Jesus.

We will kick off this season with the Principle of the Objective. Every war is propagated by an objective. Unfortunately, not many people engage with an objective. A lot of people engage just hoping that it will turn out well. But we see in Scripture that that is not how God deals. God always starts with the end in mind. He always starts with an objective.

Before God made man, He said let us make man in our image after our likeness. He did the design before He began to form man. “Where there is no vision, the people perish” Prov.29:18 [KJV]. Where there is no objective the people perish. What is the vision? What is the objective? Without vision people perish. I have said this repeatedly- he that has no plan will always succumb to he that has a plan. You can take it across board; in a marriage for instance, the man has no plan for his wife and the wife has no plan to keep the husband happy. A little “choo-choo” [young girl] outside has a plan to keep that husband happy. Guess who will win? I am not prophesying evil but it is important for us know the truth.

He that has a plan will always prevail! What is your plan to keep your wife super loved? What is your plan to keep your husband extremely happy, to make him feel like a king in his house and make him totally satisfied in all areas? What is your plan? If you do not have a plan, someone else has a plan and he that has a plan will always prevail.

Prayer: Father, I pray that I will not perish in any area of my life this year because I will set objectives and You Lord will crown me with victory, in Jesus Name

His Channels

By
Rom.1:20 For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God [with emphasis]. So far we have examined three channels God uses to speak to us. If you are not reading your Bible consistently, if you are not listening to messages over and over again, and if you are not accountable to other believers, you do not have believers that are speaking into your life, you have already missed three main channels God speaks through. Channel #4: God speaks to us through His Creation. Ps.19:1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. 2 Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. 3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. 4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world [with emphasis]. God’s cre...

Setting Prisoners Free

By
Our Daily Bread Devotional 4th October, 2016 Read: Psalm 146 Bible in a Year: Isaiah 20-22; Ephesians 6 The Lord sets prisoners free. (Psalm 146:7) When my wife and I visited the National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force near Savannah, Georgia, we were especially moved by the prisoner-of-war exhibit, with its re-creation of a German prisoner-of-war camp’s barracks. Marlene’s dad, Jim, served in the Eighth Air Force, the “Mighty Eighth,” as they flew missions over Europe during World War II. During the war, the Eighth Air Force suffered over 47,000 injuries and more than 26,000 deaths. Jim was one of those shot down and held as a prisoner of war. As we walked through the exhibit, we recalled Jim telling about the absolute joy he and his fellow prisoners felt the day they were set free. God’s care for the oppressed and liberation of the imprisoned are declared in Psalm 146. The psalmist describes the one who “upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the ...

Not For Destruction

By
DCLM Daily Manna October 19th, 2016 Text: 2 Corinthians 10:1-11 Key Verse: “For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed” (2 Corinthians 10:8). Lord Acton was not wrong when he said: “Power corrupts, but absolute power corrupts absolutely”. In our society, we often see the reckless use of power by those who are privileged to be vested with power to serve the people. Instead of exercising the power for the benefits of the common man who they are expected to serve and defend, they turn the power to an object of oppression with which they victimize and oppress the poor. Paul consciously reminded himself and his congregation that the authority the Lord has given him and his team was not for the destruction of the people but for their edification. Even in the face of obvious provocation by the people, ministers must not turn around to use their authority to vex the pe...
