YIELDING TO THE HOLY GHOST IN THESE TIMES

NEVER REJOICE OVER ANYONE'S DOWNFALL
 Proverbs 24:17-18

Never rejoice over the downfall of anybody because God can get angry and turn on you.  Be warned. The word enemy can be anyone who has made you angry or someone who just had a misfortune and you are happy or glad over it. God detests it.

SUBMIT TO CONSTITUTED AUTHORITY
Romans 13:1-4- do not resist those who are set as authorities over you because it is God that has set them there. We are light, we must not promote illegality. We ought to be true examples of the kingdom. Don’t be among those who cut corners. Don’t go about travelling when the government or laws of the land has set a law against such movement. The reason we have been powerless as believers is because we have not stuck to the principles of God’s word. These times are too dangerous for us to be involved in any form of illegality. God is light, transparent and holy, that is what we must be. The fact that you are doing something and getting results doesn’t mean it is right, it is only right when it is based on the principles of God’s word. So even if those who are set as authority over you are the ones breaking the law, you must insist on the truth and the law that has been laid. Never join anyone to defraud the government. Let’s stop all illegality in order not to give room to satan to operate. Be warned. Stay with God and stay true to His word.

YIELDING TO THE HOLY GHOST IN THESE TIMES

We have established that COVID-19 is darkness, a plague, a pestilence. And the only answer to darkness is LIGHT. COVID-19 has no respect for anybody whether big or small. No one is in charge. There is no CURE as yet. It doesn’t matter how dark it is, LIGHT is still superior.  All we have been doing thus far is charging up ourselves and exhorting one another but the battle is still staring us in the face. We are not confrontational in the battle. The battle is not physical but spiritual. The darker it is, the more relevant LIGHT should be. The intensity of the LIGHT must be such that it can subdue the darkness.

From Genesis chapter 1-10, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light…”  The earth lost shape because of the darkness at that time, and where we are now is exactly the state the earth was at that time. Things are out of course and there's darkness.

There can be no meaningful development in any place without LIGHT. Everything on the earth right now is scattered. The darkness was upon the face of the deep until the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the deep. As believers, we are too quick to act. Virtually every principle of the kingdom in the bible played out in Genesis 1& 2. One characteristic of God is patience but we are too quick to move and to speak. We are in the fast lane. Everyone is giving their opinion on what they are clueless about. When God faced the same crisis, He didn’t just delve in to give a solution, He brooded first, His Spirit moved upon the face of the deep and God said: “let there be light”. When Jesus was told that His friend Lazarus was dead, He didn’t just get up and go to raise him. He had to wait for the word before He moved.

Isaiah 50:4-“The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned”.

Right now on the earth,  Who knows exactly  the mind of God? It is THE HOLY SPIRIT! God did not call forth light until He had gotten a release from the Spirit. Where we are right now,  if we do not defer to the Holy Ghost corporately and personally, we will not be able to come out of this chaotic situation. Rather, we may become victims. There’s a way someone will call forth light by the Spirit and another will call forth light without the Spirit, they are not the same. There’s a word hanging during this season of plague and after, which we must download and birth in order to live. The Light must be given birth to, and that can only come when we yield to the Holy Ghost. Until the word comes from the Spirit, the weariness will continue. Let us get back to the Holy Spirit. We must not be agitated, let us defer to the Holy Spirit. These are the days of Spirit for spirit. It can’t happen in the flesh. This darkness has taken away everything from us. The only thing it has not taken is GOD. We must Labour to find that word otherwise this weariness/ darkness will continue. It is only when we find it that we can navigate through - “For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ”. Phil 1:19

Prayer
Lord, I surrender to You
