The destiny of my nation

"My nation." I refer to the United Kingdom here, for God's word encourages us to adopt the nation of our residence as a place of inheritance (UK is the land of my birth anyway). The destiny of Great Britain as a spiritual leader in the community of nations is under threat. Something drastic must happen to restore God's purpose for this island.

I believe God has not finished with Britain. We have a major role to play in the consummation of God's programme in the earth. In order to occupy our place effectively, the Spirit and power of Elijah must now break forth amongst us and lead us back to the One and only true God. Enough of religion, let us usher in the kingdom of the Most High!

Father, Great Britain belongs to you! Receive her as your inheritance and let your glory fill the land as the waters cover the sea!

The destiny of nations

Our commission from Christ requires us to take responsibility for the destiny of nations and not just the destiny of people. As we seek the kingdom of God in our nation of calling, surely the people in the nation will be impacted by the righteousness of the kingdom. However, if we only seek to reach people, the nation may still end up in ruin, especially if the people are not taught to express their faith everywhere in the nation.

We are to disciple all nations and bring the rule of God to bear on society. Tall order, but not impossible with the power and authority of God in us. For this purpose, a drastic shift is taking place in many sections of the church. We need to see things in a different way to how we have always seen things. We need a perspective that is all-inclusive and not subjective. We need to exercise the rule of Christ even in the midst of His enemies.

Let us arise, take the destiny of our nations into our hands and see what the Lord will do through us. With God, nothing shall be impossible!

Father, I arise!

The new focus of Pastor Sunday's ministry is the reformation of the global church. Through God, he wants to see a total shift in the way we do church - from egocentric objectives to Christ-centred pursuits. And the objective of Christ is to reap the harvest of the earth and deliver the kingdoms of this world to God.

This is the mandate of the church - to disciple all nations with the principles of rigtheousness; to present all nations to God as an offering acceptable to Him. Pastor Sunday is achieving this in Ukraine. Now, he wants to pass on what he has learnt to 10,000 churches in America and 100,000 around the world. You can get more information about Churchshift from www.churchshift.org.

Let us get into the flow of God's final move upon the earth. Let us all "shift" and finish God's work upon the earth.

Lord, count me as one of the number!

Overcoming discouragement

Our calling in God is an upward call. A successful venture will require constant victory over discouragment. Though the enemy of faith throws all sorts of things to stop the advancing believer, God's soldier must keep on pressing in and on.

Here's some wise counsel:

You are destined to soar
But if you cannot soar, run
If you cannot run, walk
If you cannot walk, crawl
By all means and whatever happens, keep on moving
By all means and whatever happens, do not compromise

The Lord will bring you to HIS destination ordained for you.

Father, thank you for the Holy Spirit who keeps us focused at all times on the purpose for which you have called. Whatever happens, O Lord, I will keep on going for you. Amen!

One year on!

Exactly a year today, we stepped out in obedience to God to start His Kingdom Outreach. Oh the joy of obedience! I am grateful to God for the grace to launch into the deep. I am also grateful for the results so far.

One year on, I can see wisdom of God in operation. Our first year was a year of planting, a year of laying foundation. This next year, starting today, is our year of learning, a year of the first fruit. As we begin to take responsibility for different aspects of society, God is going to teach us many things in a practical way. We are convinced London will never remain the same.

I will not write a report of all the happenings, only to say that it is better to obey God than to offer a thousand sacrifices. God's instructions not only link us to our destiny and His supply, they are our lifeline on the path of righteousness. Through the voice of His leading, we now have a level of momentum that will cause many things to begin to happen. All for the glory and praise of His name.

Father, I cannot thank You enough for all that You have done in and through me this past year. Oh Lord receive my thanks and accept the offering of my life. May all I do be for the futherance of Your kingdom here on earth. Amen.
