Seeds of Destiny 23 August 2024 Devotional MESSAGE:
Our God is a jealous God; He does not want us to look up to any man or worship any other god besides Him. Those who look up to God never go down in shame.
Looking away from man, and looking up only to God is a fundamental principle for accessing supernatural provision. Many people downplay this principle and consequently, they struggle in life.
You access divine provisions when you come to a point where your faith is only in God, not in the government, or in any system of the world.
Psalm 34:5 says,
They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.
When you look unto God, light would come from Him to you; when you look unto God, your burden would be lifted.
This was what Abraham did. In Genesis Chapter 14, Abraham said unto the king of Sodom, that he (Abraham) had lifted up his hand unto the Lord, the Most High God, the possessor of heaven and earth, that he would not take from the king, a thread, even to a shoe latchet, lest the king should say that he had made him rich.
In other words, Abraham was boldly declaring that he was not looking unto man, but unto God.
You see, God is a jealous God; when you look unto man, you rob yourself of access to divine provisions.
In the beginning of our ministry, we declared our stand in looking only unto God. This is because the agenda of God is too big for one person to sponsor. As we continue to look unto God, He has never disappointed us as a Ministry.
Many times, when we said there is no individual that is behind what God is doing in our Ministry, some people get angry. But that is okay, because we are not willing give God’s Glory to anyone.
Please, make up your mind to look away from men; focus your gaze on God so you can access His provisions.
Remember this: Looking away from man, and looking up only to God is a fundamental principle for accessing supernatural provision.
ASSIGNMENT:
1. Refuse to lean on the arm of the flesh for your survival and provision on earth.
2. Only look up to God for your sustenance in life.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You deliver me from any temptation of looking unto men. I receive the grace to look up to You, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
