TOPIC: PROGRESS WITH SPEED
Pst. E.A Adeboye, The General Overseer(RCCG)
Memorise:
Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the
snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.Psalm 124:7
1 A
Song of degrees. When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like
them that dream.
2
Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing:
then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for
them.
3
The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.
4
Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.
Message:
Promotion can come to you through either
human or divine assistance. The assisted state of progress attained through
this promotion moves you to a level where you are not supposed to be. The
greatest promotion of all is that which transforms a sinner into a saint. This
is only made possible through divine assistance. Because man could not attain
this spiritual promotion by his own efforts, God came in to help us. This
season, the Lord will assist you and move you to a level you are not qualified
to occupy in Jesus' Name.
Beyond the assisted state of progress is
the accelerated state of progress. This is progress of the unusual kind. It
defies time, expectations and protocol. Under the influence of this state of
progress, you could be at the bottom now and find yourself at the very top
moments later. David experienced this type of progress in 1 Samuel 16:11-13. He
was just watching over his father's sheep and goats in the fields when a
messenger came and told him he was urgently needed at home. "What
for?", he asked. The messenger's reply was "I don't know, but we have
a visitor - a man, I think he is a prophet, and he asked for you to come right
away." As soon as he got home, God told the prophet, "This is the
fellow, anoint him now." Samuel asked David to kneel before his brethren,
and he anointed him. By the time the boy got up, he was already a king. One
moment he was a shepherd boy, and at the next, he was a king. That is
accelerated progress!
At the registry on the day of my wedding,
we could not but notice what was happening around us. A particular girl was
dressed up to be wedded, but she waited endlessly for the bridegroom, not
knowing he had absconded. She almost went berserk, but she eventually survived
the disappointment. Not long after, she was married to a soldier. Unknown to
her, the man who jilted her also joined the army. One day, there was a military
coup, and the husband of this girl became a governor. Meanwhile, the boy who
jilted her was assigned as a subordinate to her husband, the governor. So,
anytime this girl was to enter the car, her former husband-to-be had to open
the door for her. This season, God will overlook time, protocol and the
arrangement of men in order to accelerate your promotion! Your progress shall
receive divine speed in Jesus' Name.
Prayer Point:
Father, by divine speed, move me, my family
and members of my local assembly to the very top in Jesus' Name.
