SCRIPTURE READING: John 5: 1-14 (KJV)
1 After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
3 In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
4 For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
5 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
7 The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.
8 Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
9 And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
10 The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
11 He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.
12 Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?
13 And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.
14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
FOCUS VERSE:
“The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.” (John 5: 7)

In our Focal Scripture, the man at the pool of Bethesda gave Jesus one of the reasons why he remained at the pool. He told Jesus how he had tried to get into the pool when an Angel stirred the water, but someone else always got there before him. Impliedly, there was a challenge of speed in the life of that man. He was simply too slow to hit his target. He lacked the speed needed to compete with others at the pool of Bethesda.
Friend, I pray for you: may the Lord baptize you with divine speed. May your feet be strengthened to run ahead of your competitors. May your feet receive strength to move ahead of those who are already ahead of you. May you receive strength to move faster and gain your results with speed. May you receive might in your inner man to prevail over every delay that has kept you where you are. May your feet receive divine speed.
The power of delay is broken forever in your life. The season of slow movements, is over. Your progress will no longer be slow. Your results will no longer come slowly. Your advancement will no longer be slow. Your miracles will no longer come slowly. Your breaking forth will not be slow. Your greatness will not come slowly. Your resources will not come slowly. Your results will not come slowly. The season of slow movements is over.
Get set: in this new season, it will be said that everything in your life is happening fast and at the same time. Your good news will come in quick succession. Your life will move to the speed lane. In this season, you will overtake those who previously overtook you. The same way the hand of the Lord was on Elijah and he ran ahead of Ahab, you will run ahead of those ahead of you. Stagnation has been replaced with divine speed.
Welcome to your new season of divine speed. Welcome to a new season where your life will no longer be on the slow lane.
Psalm 18: 33 says: “He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet, and setteth me upon my high places.”
DECLARATION: I walk in divine speed; no more delays, in Jesus’ name!
