Wisdom For The Day Devotional 24 August 2022 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – You Will Get There
TOPIC: You Will Get There (TREM Devotional 24 August 2022)
“Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:” Philippians 1:6 (KJV)
MESSAGE:
One of the things you must establish in your spirit is that life is never a straight line. Live is filled with oxymorons, paradoxes, detours, digressions and at times roadblocks and bumps. You must settle that. It is not just a straight line.
Power is not only positive! Power is always a combination of positive and negative. You must settle that in your heart too. There is a devil loosed on earth and he is still very active.
Jesus, the other day said “the thief cometh not but for to steal, to kill and to destroy. But thank God He has come to give us life and life more abundantly.
The fact that you are in the will of God does not in any way grant you immunity from satanic attack.
The fact that you are in the will of God does not separate you from satanic oppression and diverse kind of attacks in different areas of life. Whoever told you that you can just arrive on the global scene without a fight, and the devil will play dead, has lied to you. The fact that God has His protective arms on you makes you a target. But the devil is a liar! He cannot stop God’s plan and purpose for your life.
You are not an accident of birth. Ever before you were born, God has already ordained great and mighty things for your life. Right where you are, even in your conditions, the plans of God towards you have not changed. Let the devil summersault several times, God’s colorful destiny for your life shall be established. Christ in you is the confident expectation of glory. Glory is your portion. And I know you will get there! God will grant you grace to navigate through the banana pills of life. You will not be stopped!
