“Samuel grew up. God was with him, and Samuel’s prophetic record was flawless. 20 Everyone in Israel, from Dan in the north to Beersheba in the south, recognized that Samuel was the real thing — a true prophet of God. 21 God continued to show up at Shiloh, revealed through his word to Samuel at Shiloh” 1 Sam 3:19-21 MSG
When a man or woman have an authentic calling from the Lord coupled with the zeal and diligence required for upward movement, you will see them growing and maturing spiritually. God’s authentic Presence will be visible in their lives and tangible glory of God will envelope them. Emmanuel [God with us] will be chaperoning all their moves and they will be so led by the Spirit of God such that none of their declarations, teaching, prophesying or display of the power of God shall be without heavens authentication.
Depending on the grace and gifts of God upon their lives their display of healing, teaching, preaching, prophesying, deliverance and so on shall be flawless for God is working with them with signs and wonders following their declaration of the Gospel Good-News. They will be recognized like Samuel as the real thing!
God will continue to showcase His works through them as the undiluted, unpolluted, ever sharp and potent word full of revelation knowledge and great wisdom will be flowing out of their mouth like rivers.
IN this season that unadulterated, precious and sharp shooting WORD of God is scarce and hard to encounter, such Men and Women will be carriers and DIVINE ORACLE!
Like the days of Jesus Christ…their listeners will be saying…What a WORD is this! He is not speaking like others! Fire and ecstatic utterances flowing through him or her is demolishing the powers that be and undeniable miracles, signs and wonders are being wrought through them!
God will continue to show Himself to the people of God by using these men or women of God whose walk with God is impeccable and who are always striving to please the Master. Such have no hidden agenda, lust after the people’s money, prophe-lying, pompous, walking in the flesh or carnal minded [not earthly minded]. They just want to please the Master and do whatever He tells them to do!
“And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread. And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I PERCEIVE that this is AN HOLY MAN OF GOD, which passeth by us continually. Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither. 2 Kings 4:8-10
Such servants of the Most high will have testimony that they are HOLY MEN OF GOD; You will be so surprised to truly hear the perception of the people you shepherd about you; the people know you! By their fruit of the Spirit we shall know them. It is not in your impeccable preaching or your oratory power, IT IS THE FRUIT OF CHRIST LIKENESS THAT YOU BEAR!
The exuberant fragrance of holiness, righteousness, piousness, integrity and willingness to obey every directives of the LORD will be exhuming from the inner man of HOLY MEN such that even unbelievers will KNOW beyond a shadow of a doubt that these are true humble servants of God.
Such men will not have to do any cajoling before their every need are supplied. They will not have to raise unnecessary funds nor use the Church funds for personal use. God will supply all their need according to HIS RICHES IN GLORY by Christ Jesus. Did Elisha print any seed envelope? Did he speak to the woman for offering? Did he ask for a condominium in Florida or a duplex in Dubai?
We are to be building the LIVES of men to meet the standard of God…
Every other thing is minor!
When true servants of God qualifies for such things as per his work and walk before God, God raised up men to supply those needs without any struggle. What happens in the days of old when rich folks like Lydia the purple seller will be entreating men of God like Paul to stay in her house? What about the word of the Lord that said seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all other things shall be added unto you?
I beseech you by the mercy of God, let your priority change from today. Seek the Lord while He may be found. Devote yourself totally to doing those things that pleases the Master. Read, study, meditate and do the WORD of God and surely, slowly and steadfastly you will have good success and prosper both physically and spiritually speaking!
Be ye imitators of Christ!
