2013: Prophetic Word to the Church in Nigeria (Part 4 of 4)
JUDGEMENT ON THE UNGODLY
“But it [the wrath of
the Lord] shall hail, coming down overpoweringly on the forest [the army of the
Assyrians], and the capital city shall be utterly humbled and laid
prostrate.” (Isaiah 32:19)
Though the blessing of the Lord is reserved for the sons of
the Kingdom, those who align themselves with evil to do evil will know the
wrath of God. Can we escape the turbulence and rumour of war? The Lord knows. (Let
the heart of the wise consider and take action). Nonetheless, the One who is
mighty in battle will fight for His own and for the oppressed of the land. His
anger will burn upon those who have delighted themselves in evil and the slain
of the sons of men. Besides, the places that are called “secure” will not be
spared and the defence of the lofty will be brought low. Pray for the “capital
city”, the place where much battle will rage in the coming times. Be assured, those
who make the Lord their refuge and trust will only see the reward of the wicked;
they shall not partake of their lot.
THE APPOINTED TIME TO SOW
“Happy and fortunate
are you who cast your seed upon all waters [when the river overflows its banks;
for the seed will sink into the mud and when the waters subside, the plant will
spring up; you will find it after many days and reap an abundant harvest], you
who safely send forth the ox and the donkey [to range freely].” (Isaiah 32:20)
This is not the time to quit in fear because of the
trembling that shall be felt in the earth. It is the time to discern opportunities
that match our prophetic destiny. It is time to step out and sow seed in
earnest expectation. The journey into the Promised Land is always made when the
river overflows its banks. If God’s people will scale through to the other side
of their purpose and destiny, they would need to hear the voice of God’s
instructions and sow in the place that He commands. That idea, that dream; that
vision, that commission; NOW is the time step out in faith - led by the Spirit,
empowered by His grace and leaning on the everlasting arms. For when the rising
waters subside, the seeds sown will remain in the earth; they will no longer
remain a solitary seed, but will come back after many days as an abundant
harvest. Those who sow nothing now will reap nothing when the time comes.
This is also a jubilee season for those who bear the burdens
of the house of the Lord. They shall “range freely” in their lands and be
exceedingly fruitful.
Blessed are those who take these words to heart, ponder upon
them and act accordingly.

I like your Humility in Christ Jesus in your Final Admonition and how you started the write up in part 1. how we need this attribute of Jesus in churches.
To Jesus be Praise.
