Wisdom For The Day Devotional 16 December 2024 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – Submit Yourself To Process
TOPIC: Submit Yourself To Process (TREM Devotional 16 December 2024)
“And the Lord answered me, and said, write the vision, and make it plain upon the tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end, it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” Habakkuk 2:2-3 (KJV)
MESSAGE:
Vision is like a goal or dream in life. It is a vivid imaginative conception or anticipation. It is seeing into the future about your destiny and the goal that God has purposed and designed for you. When you see it, then you begin to work towards it. That is God’s design. I have found out that a lot of people abort what God has purposed, planned, designed and packaged for them from the beginning because they fail to go through the process. They try to sidetrack the process.
Beloved, there is a process. The goal is already a foregone conclusion! But God’s plan is that when you finally arrive there, His Glory is revealed. Glory has weight. And so if the structure is not prepared for the glory, the structure will destroy the glory. So, God wants to prepare the structure. Right now, you think that you are going through difficulties, but it is part of the process. What is process? A process is a systematic series of actions directed to some end. A continuous action, operation or series of changes occurs in a definite manner. It is an action of going forward. Right where you are now, what you call a problem propels you forward, for nothing works against the believer.
Gold and diamond cannot be marketed until processed when mined in the raw state. Crude oil will not be as valuable as it should be until it goes through the process. God, at times, allows us to go through these processes. You are being processed right now for where you are going so you can attain the height that God has ordained.
