Dunamis Seeds Of Destiny 22 July 2024 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche| What You Demand, Not What You Deserve
TOPIC: What You Demand, Not What You Deserve (Seeds Of Destiny 22 July 2024)
SCRIPTURE: And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. Matthew 11:12
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: It takes spiritual aggression to experience physical possession.
Spiritual aggressiveness is a necessity for victory and triumph in life. It takes spiritual aggressiveness to experience physical possession.
You must refuse to be timid in the spirit. Never sit down and watch whatever the devil throws at you.
Life does not give you what you deserve, but what you demand. You may say, “I deserve to be married. I deserve to have a big destiny. I deserve to have a flourishing business. I deserve to be a graduate.
I deserve to have children” No! It does not work like that. Life gives you what you demand, and not what you deserve.
You don’t get what you deserve; you get what you demand.
Look at Joseph. He had a vision for thirteen years but his vision could not come to pass. He interpreted the dreams of others, but his dream was left un-interpreted for thirteen solid years. But despite that, he never gave up. He kept interpreting other people’s dreams until his own vision and dream saw the light of day.
What about David? He had the oil to be king on his head, yet, the throne was not vacant. He had been anointed to be king but the throne was still occupied. The oil was on his head for about thirteen to seventeen years, but he held on until the throne was vacated.
Beloved, if you make up your mind to persist in doing what you have been doing, the devil will give up what is yours.
You take your possession by the force of demand, aggression and violence in the Spirit.
You need the baptism of the spirit of violence to succeed in life.
Remember this: It takes spiritual aggression to experience physical possession.
ASSIGNMENT:
Make up your mind to be spiritually aggressive to possess your inheritance physically.
Refuse to maintain spiritual gentility and timidity.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You baptize me with a fighter’s spirit. Help me never to lose my portion and possession in life through spiritual gentility and timidity, Lord in Jesus’ Name.
QUOTE: We do not deserve more than what we have. God, in His wisdom, knows that what we have now is good for now. And as we appreciate Him, He will move us to the next level. Culled from the book, “21 Foolish Things People Do” by Dr Paul Enenche.
DAILY READING: Isaiah 22-24
AMAZING FACT: The brain uses more energy than the rest of the organs where only 20% of the energy is reserved for the rest of the body.
PROPHETIC WORD (DECLARATION): Receive the fresh baptism of spiritual violence and aggression, LORD, in Jesus’ Name.
