Open Heaven of Tuesday 24th September 2013. CHECK THIS BALANCE Memorise: Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men. Proverbs 22:29 Read: Proverbs 22:29 Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men. Proverbs 22:29 Bible in one year: Isaiah 58-60 Message To fly as an eagle, you need to balance anointing with holiness. Each wing cannot do with the other. Why? Without holiness, anointing is like a machine gun in the hand of a mad man. Samson had anointing but lack holiness and it led to his untimely death. Also, some people want victory over the battle confronting them but they are not ready to pay the price. James 4:7 says, “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you”. They say first thing first. It is after you submit that the victory will come. Some people do not want to submit to authority and yet they want to command the devil and expect him to obey. It is not possible because a bird does not fly with one wing. In the same vein, many people want breakthrough in their finances. They pray, fast and attend breakthrough programmes but even though they know what Malachi 3:10 says, they are not prepared to obey. How then will the breakthroughs come? If you satisfy God’s conditions, He will surely keep to His own side of bargain. In addition, promotion works hand in hand with diligence. Proverbs 22:29 says, “Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.” Many Christians want to prosper or become great without necessarily working hard. Some are praying and fasting for prosperity but do not want to work. They are so selective of jobs that they prefer to stay idle or jobless until they get their choice job. But God does not often work that way. God is no magician but a miracle worker. He rewards those who take up the little and do their best. If Joseph had said he will not serve in any lesser capacity than what his dream had depicted, he would never have realised that dream. Some people are stuck between where they are and their destiny because they refuse to accept the available ‘small’ opportunities. Stop limiting yourself! God watches our attitudes. It is your faithfulness in the ‘little’ that will make way for the bigger doors. If you are too selective, your real problem may be pride or laziness, and God hates lazy bones. KEY POINT When you work hard, let your confidence still be in God, otherwise you could be disappointed.
