Seeds of Destiny 4 January 2026 | SOD DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE
I read a story some time ago about a man, a born-again child of God. He had bronchopneumonia that progressed into a serious respiratory crisis. He was on hospital bed battling for life while on oxygen support.
He said a point came where it looked like he was choking and gasping for breath. So, he pulled off the oxygen mask so that he could have fresh air. At this point, his muscles were gone, and his lungs collapsed. He said he used his last breath to run towards the nurses’ station, and screamed at them, “Please, I need breath!” That was the only thing he could say. The next thing, he saw his spirit leave his body as if he was going to eternity. The nurses tried to resuscitate him. They did cardiopulmonary resuscitation, gave him intravenous drip, but nothing was working. The doctors were left wondering what to do next.
But then something strange happened: Suddenly, he saw himself in eternity and heard the Voice of the Lord asking him, “The life that I gave you, is this how long you want to live in the world?” The Lord also added, “The choice is yours.” Then he answered, “Lord, this cannot be how long I want to live. There are many things you have told me to do that I have not yet done. This is not what I want, except you want me to go, but as for me, this is not what I want.” Then God told him, “You have what you want: Go back!
Immediately, a bright light hit his body, and one of his hands started moving, and then his legs followed. The doctors screamed, “He is moving! There is life!” That was how he came to life. What happened? He made a choice to live at the junction of the earth and eternity, and his choice prevailed over the wishes and devices of the enemy.
Beloved, the devil is not omnipotent. He cannot do whatever he wants with your life. Under God, you have a choice in the matter. You are not at the mercy of the devil; the devil is powerless over your life unless you empower him with sin, fear and ignorance.
Luke 10:19 says,
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Now, let me show you another way to read that scripture; this will deepen your understanding of the scripture. This is how to read it: Go after the devil, break his head, destroy his works, and proceed without consequence.
Beloved, there is enough power in you to function as if the devil does not exist. Know who you are and live it out, so you don’t become a victim in the hands of whom you are meant to crush.
REMEMBER THIS: There is enough power in you to function as if the devil does not exist.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Determine to stand your ground; you can choose to live and succeed.
2. Consistently declare the Word of God to yourself to stir up the power of God in you against the agenda of the enemy.
3. Refuse to believe the suggestions of the devil; believe what God says concerning you, no matter the situation you find yourself.
PRAYER:
Lord, thank You for Your Word to me today. I must live and fulfil my days and destiny on earth. The agenda of the enemy against my life is frustrated, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
