Step Out With Femi Monehin

“Elijah said to her… make a little bread for me first then use what’s left to prepare a meal for yourself and your son… So she did as Elijah said, and… there was always enough flour and olive oil left in the containers, just as the Lord had promised…” 
- 1 Kings 17:13,15-16.

It is one thing to believe in the supernatural, it is another thing to be open to the supernatural. It is one thing to have the supernatural at arm’s length, it is another thing to embrace the supernatural. Do you desire to be open to the supernatural but you are wondering how to go about it? To be open to the supernatural, you must know two things.

#1. Miracles happen outside of your comfort zone. The first thing you have to understand is that the miraculous happens outside of your comfort zone. Miracles do not happen in your comfort zone. Imagine your comfort zone is zone A. that is where you do life and have achieved a comfortable rhythm and routine. Guess what? Miracles do not happen there. Miracles happen in zone Z, outside of your comfort zone.

So for you to get the miracles that you want, you have to come out of your comfort zone. It could be in something as simple as rhythm. Take fasting for instance; do you know that it is possible to fast in your comfort zone? You are fasting and nothing is even moving, you are not feeling anything. In fact, your physical body is not even feeling the fast. Some people say that it is when they fast their belly comes out. The truth is you have not really started fasting. It is when you push out of your comfort zone that miracles happen. By God’s grace, I fast a lot and it is easy if you fast a lot to fast in your comfort zone. But I always ensure that I push myself out of my comfort zone. Why? Simple, because I know that is where the miracles happen.

With praying it is the same thing. God wants you to pray. You have to pray out of your comfort zone; that is where the miracles happen. There are seasons in church where we have vigils every single day and some people have called it crazy. News flash, your bed is your comfort zone and miracles do not happen there. Miracles happen outside your comfort zone. You cannot keep doing the same thing over and over and expect a different result. It does not make sense. Miracles happen outside of your comfort zone.

Prayer [song]: Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders. Let me walk upon the water wherever You would call me. Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander. And my faith will be made stronger in the Presence of my Savior. Amen!

His Channels

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...

THEME: RETREAT TO REFRESH READ: Matt. 11:25-30 When some musicians want to release great songs, they retreat to secluded places where they can reflect, meditate and create. Some choose places overlooking the vast oceans, some choose where there are waterfalls, and some choose places with thick forestations.  As they observe the beauty of nature, the swift moves and songs of the soaring birds, the colourful flowering vegetations, the serene beaches and the unending waves of the nearby waters, they capture inspiration that helps them develop the hit songs they have been longing for. I met one of the world’s renowned musicians in Atlanta, USA a few years ago where journalist surrounded him and were asking what he had come to do and why his beards had grown so much. He said that his last album did not perform well enough and he was incubating another one he wanted to release that would perform better. He said that he needed to pull away from the Noise of New York and California ...

THEME: MAKE ROOM FOR GOD 2Corinthians 1-9 You should not be among the many that are living without the precious things God promised.The LORD Jesus Christ said in John 16:24" Until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full. In making plans for your life and your future,stop focusing attention on only what you think you can do and what your resources can carry. You will be limiting God by so doing.When you plan for only what you can achieve by your personal efforts,you exclude God's grace and weary yourself with much toiling and energy exertion.Instead,you should make room for God in every plan you make. Plan to grow bigger and better in every unfolding phase of your life. When you plan for bigger things than your known resources can carry,do so with clear understanding that only God will help you to attain your desires.This understanding drives you to your knees.As you consistently pray and hold unto God,miracle are birthed...
