Word For The 44th Week Of 2018

Topic: Witnesses, Leaders and Commanders

Text: Isaiah 55:4 Behold, I have given him [for] a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.

Like I have always said, the times and season should dictate the posture of believers. In the bible days, the Jews have few iron equipments which is used for farming during the times of peace and for weapons during the times of war.

So, when there is a trumpet sound for war, they quickly take their farming equipments to the smith to change it to weapons of war. Imagine a person who didn't hear the trumpet sound of war. The battle will meet him unprepared as all he would have will be farming equipments and not weapons.

During the last weekend, I attended a program tagged Issachar Gathering. Issachar is a type of the believer that understands the times and season and also knows what to do. I attended the meeting to know what God is saying to us at this time. One important habit we must be doing in this last days is listening to true prophets consistently.

The program was tagged Witnesses, Leaders and Commanders which was taken from Isaiah 55:4, but I am studying the book of Joshua presently and the LORD showed me witnesses, leaders and commanders from the fifth chapter. Check to see too.

The minister for the program said the LORD will have him to teach on THE REST OF GOD. Apparently, I see the LORD telling us that as we move in to take the territories in our spheres of influence, we must know that He is the One who leads us on as our provider and keeper.

The LORD seems to have seen the anxiety of our heart and sends His word to us to rest on His blessing and not our own ability to do things. I can go on and on, but to conclude, I believe that the Lord is saying to us at this time to rest in His ability to bring to pass His counsel for our lives and our nation. You can get the message from the website of WaterGate Church, Ota, Ogun state, Nigeria.

Scriptures like Isaiah 46:5-10, Proverbs 3:5-6 and Psalms 2 and 37 comes to bare at this time. I urge you to check them and believe that the Lord is in charge!

Have a great week

Prophetic Perspective: Israel vs Iran

The middle east situation between Israel and Palestine is a very complex one that can be viewed from many sides. Whichever perspective you choose, there will always be an unresolved issue. It is exactly a year that Hamas, a terrorist group in Palestine, dealt the biggest blow ever to the Israeli state, killing over 1000 Jews and abducting about 251. It sent a shock wave round the world. The October 7, 2023 attacks kick-started a war that has escalated to involve Lebanon, Syria, Qatar and Iran. Israel has gone all out attacking Palestine in a wave that many world leaders have been cautioning them to consider the civilians. ORIGIN OF THE WAR The origin of the war in the middle east can be traced back to the 1920s when Britain, in conjunction with the Arabs defeated the Ottoman military in Jerusalem and took the city as a colony of the British royalty.  It wasn't long before the British decided to release the land to the Arabs that fought alongside them. But, there was another set of ...

Nigeria In The Bible

As we approach another celebration of the independence of the nation Nigeria, I will like us to know some things about this nation that the LORD has shown me. If a man wants to know the details of God's will for his life, he would need to read the things that have been written or said about him by God. Prophecy is one of the ways that the will of God can be known. Prophecy is voicing God's will. This same principle applies to territories as territories also have a will established by God for them to fulfill. In the scriptures, we see details of many nations that existed in that time. Nations like Israel, Egypt, Syria, Edom, Philistine, Babylon and in the new testament, we saw countries like Italy and Spain which still exists till today. Most of the nations that were mentioned in the old testament bear a new name today. There were some nations mentioned in the old testament, but their names were not specified. God, through the prophets spoke about the destiny of some na...

Shameful Calling?

After my last story about David, the official bastard. I got a call from someone, a lady and she said "Olanrewaju, can you please share my story on your blog? It would encourage your readers". After considering it, I decided to hear it first, but after I heard her story, I knew it would be perfect for you! I interviewed her and this is what I got: Olanrewaju: Can you please share your story with me? My New Friend: I will tell you about my life before I got married. I was a very modest lady who attracted praises from her parents, respect from the church members, admiration from the young men and of course, envy from some sisters. However, I remained humble, purposeful and pure. Even the pastor used me as an example as he was preaching one of his long sermons. Olanrewaju (thinking): That's a wonderful rƩsumƩ! My New Friend: I got engaged to a young man in our church. He was God-fearing and he loved me with the whole of his heart. We had our introduction in a mod...
