Topic: Your Atmosphere, A Reflection Of Who You Belong To [Monday February 5, 2018]
Scripture: And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually. 2 Kings 4:9
Thought For The Day: Holiness is perceivable, character is discernible and spirituality is feel-able.
Sometime ago, we were in a car shop in New Jersey, U.S.A. and a man who is a Liberian-American saw me and asked me with much certainty, ‘Are you a pastor? I said, how do you know? He said, ‘It is written all over you.’ I have had such an experience on different occasions. So, what you carry or who you belong to is perceivable or discernible.
On another occasion, my wife and I were in an aircraft and an evil spirit in someone began to manifest violently immediately he saw me. I looked into his eyes and he began to utter some meaningless things. The devil in him was tormented by the Presence of God in me.
Beloved, when you belong to God, people perceive it when they see you. In our text, 2 Kings 4:9, the woman from Shunem said, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually. She did not sit down to discuss with the man of God but every time he passed by, there was something about him that was unmistakeable. So, holiness is perceivable, character is discernible and spirituality is feel-able. When you are spiritual, you know and those who know you can attest to it.
There are people, when you see them, what you perceive is seduction. For instance, some women are not yet dressed until their cleavage is exposed. That is seduction.
Beloved, surrender your life completely to God. Let Him own you and let His ownership of you reflect on your character and appearance, and God will exempt you from what is confronting the world.
Remember This: Holiness is perceivable, character is discernible and spirituality is feel-able.
