Topic : Never Try To Control God.

Memory Verse :Isaiah 45:25. I, the Lord, will rescue all the descendants of Jacob, and they will give me praise.

Bible Reading : Isaiah 45:22-24. GNB. Key Verse : v23.

“Turn to me now and be saved, people all over the world! I am the only God there is. My promise is true, and it will not be changed. I solemnly promise by all that I am: Everyone will come and kneel before me and vow to be loyal to me. “They will say that only through me are victory and strength to be found; but all who hate me will suffer disgrace.

Cyrus was a heathen king of Persia who was in God’s plan for the people of Israel. God raised him and made great because he had something he wanted to use him to achieve in the life of his people; that is to rebuild walls of Jerusalem. “The Lord has chosen Cyrus to be king! He has appointed him to conquer nations;  he sends him to strip kings of their power; the Lord will open the gates of cities for him. To Cyrus the Lord says, “I myself will prepare your way, levelling mountains and hills. I will break down bronze gates and smash their iron bars. I will give you treasures from dark, secret places; then you will know that I am the Lord,  and that the God of Israel has called you by name. I appoint you to help my servant Israel, the people that I have chosen. I have given you great honour, although you do not know me.” Isaiah 45:1-4.

We need to know today in the first place that God can always decide to use anyone he pleases to fulfill his purpose in our lives or the lives of his people. Because he created all things and all things he created serves his purpose. He knows how to make each and every one of them comply with his purpose, even in their ignorance. He was telling Cyrus here that it is true that you don’t know me, I am going to empower and make you great because I know that your greatness will be used to serve my purpose. That is the reason God is sovereign and therefore unquestionable in his ways. “I am the one who made the earth and created the human race to live there. By my power I stretched out the heavens; I control the sun, the moon, and the stars. I myself have stirred Cyrus to action to fulfil my purpose and put things right. I will straighten every road that he travels. He will rebuild my city, Jerusalem, and set my captive people free. No one has hired him or bribed him to do this.” The Lord Almighty has spoken.” Isaiah 45:12-13.

On a very important and last note for today, understand that God can decide to use any man to bless ir reach out to you. Victory in battles of life comes only from the Lord and he can always decide to deliver same through any man as a channel. Therefore we have no right to tell God whom he must use for us. When we are dealing with God, we therefore have to allow him take the lead, just like in the case of Peter and Cornelius. Peter was looking at tradition of men and pattern, but God was out for a new move of the Holy Spirit over the Gentiles who was seen before that time as outsiders in God’s plan. The result they got by obeying the voice of the Spirit shocked everyone that attended that heavenly ordained meeting in the house of Cornelius with Peter. “While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit came down on all those who were listening to his message. The Jewish believers who had come from Joppa with Peter were amazed that God had poured out his gift of the Holy Spirit on the Gentiles also. For they heard them speaking in strange tongues and praising God’s greatness. Peter spoke up:” Acts 10:44-46.

Prayer : Thank you Father God because you are sovereign. Thank you because you can empower and use anyone to achieve your purpose in my life and situation as it pleases you. Help me also to recognise and accept men you are sending into my life to bless me in Jesus wonderful name….. Amen 🙏🏿.

Yearly Bible Reading : John 16:5-33.
