YOUR BLESSING IS LOCKED IN YOUR INSTRUCTION

Every blessing is always first preceded by an instruction. Our God is a God of order and organisation. That is why He does not look at faces but adherence to His instructions and principle. In Gen 12:1..."Now the Lord had said to Abram: Get out of your COUNTRY, from your FAMILY, and from your FATHER'S HOUSE to a land that I will show you". Please note in the first sentence that Abram is not just receiving this instruction for the first time; "Now the Lord had said to Abram". How many times have you received instruction but you refused to make a move? The greatest undoing of man is flouting instructions. Until you make a move, God will not move! He's waiting for you to move.

Also, the 3 major things that holds men down are; his country, his family and his fathers house. The greatest enemy of man is that of his household. God is a personal God and He wants to meet with you as an individual but for so long you've allowed the sentimentality of where you are and the people you are with to hold you down. You are too attached to your root but God is saying until there is a separation there is no lifting. God had been calling Abram but he was held down by the love of country, family and father's house whereas God want to make a nation out of him.

Friend, what do you have in your hand today that you can't give up? Until you detach yourself from some people in your family and circle of friends you can't receive the promises of God for your life. God is calling on you today to give up and give in to Him!

It is time to listen to that inner voice in you. The spirit of God is reinforcing the fact that it is time for your exodus to the promise land. Would you listen to the voice of God today?

Cry unto God today; Father, I am ready!

Shalom!
