POSITIVE SURPRISES
SCRIPTURE: “But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him” – 1 Corinthians 2:9
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: To exist without God is to exist without surprises: To be independent of God is to be insufficient of positive surprises.
A Surprise is an unexpected or astonishing event that happens without someone’s expectation, something very astounding to them.
God is a God of positive surprises. Surprises are His natural operations and realm. That is why, to exist without God is to exist without surprises. To be independent of God is to be deficient of positive surprises.
Divine Surprises are God’s wondrous, amazing and unbelievable happenings that are beyond human comprehension and apprehension. Those things which are highly impossible to man tend to be very much possible with God.
For instance, God can make a woman who has passed the age of childbearing (menopause) able to give birth again, as it was in the case of Sarah (Genesis 21:1-2).
God can also turn a donkey into a prophet. Incredible! (Numbers 22:26-30). God opened the mouth of Balaam’s Donkey to give him a prophetic rebuke and advice. That is called a Positive surprise!
Beloved, I give you one key to experiencing positive surprises:
That key is HAVING TRUST IN GOD.
Trust in God is an unconditional commitment and dedication to Him. This is the point where one says, ‘With or without a husband, a job or money, I will still serve God.’
Indeed, trust in God is that realm where nothing is able to change your position or heart for God.
So, the realm of positive surprises is not a mirage; it is real. It is not mystical but practical if you will not waver in your TRUST for God.
Remember this: To exist without God is to exist without surprises; to be independent of God is to be deficient of positive surprises.
ASSIGNMENT (S):
1. Carefully go through the message again in the course of the day
2. Doggedly determine to trust God with all your heart regardless of any condition.
FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: POSITIVE SURPRISES.
PRAYER: LORD, I ask for the Grace to trust You even when I cannot trace You. I demand, O LORD, that You give me a definite positive surprise today that will silence the enemy, in Jesus’ Name.
