This is our year of walking and basking in God’s glory, and the book of Isaiah 60:1-2 says you should arise and shine for your light is come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon you; it doesn’t matter the gross darkness all around, it doesn’t matter the story or calamity, or situation in the country, the Lord is risen concerning your life and you are surely going to arise and shine in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
Today I will be sharing briefly with you the keys to walking and basking in God’s glory
We know that keys are very important, without keys access to a place is denied, it doesn’t matter how big the size of a door is, once you have the key, you will gain access.
Also, you know a key is usually smaller in size when compared to a door, keys look quite insignificant but as soon as you insert it into the right door, it will open.
The material used in making the door also does not matter, whether iron, bronze or any other strong product, as soon as you slot in the right key, the door will be opened to you.
This is why I know that as you use these keys in your walk with God in the year 2024, your life will never remain the same in Jesus name.
It doesn’t matter where you are this day, because it is your season to walk and bask in God’s glory, that location and situation must yield in your favor in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
It doesn’t matter how barren or forsaken the land you inhabit is, the Lord shall cause it to yield great harvest for you in Jesus name.
I know this because Deuteronomy 11:24 says wherever the sole of your feet shall touch, you shall inherit it in Jesus name.
Also, Just as Isaac sowed in the time of famine yet reaped hundred folds, it doesn’t matter the situation in your environment or country, because you are a child of God and as children of God, we are operating under heavenly economy, and the Word of God says: “With God all things are possible, you shall indeed arise and shine greatly in Jesus mighty name (Genesis 26:12, Matthew 19:26)
So you should know that it doesn’t matter the limitations on your way, as the Word of God has gone ahead of you, in this year, you need to believe the Word of the Lord, because the Word of God can never fail and it will never fail concerning your life in Jesus name (2 Chronicles 20:20-24)
The Lord is doing a new thing in your life in Jesus name.
There’s another example in the bible, Abraham in Genesis 13:8-11 gave his cousin Lot, the liberty to choose one between two lands which he will inhabit and dwell, so Lot looked around and picked a place (out of his human thinking), that he felt was good, but at the end the place ended up in destruction. (Genesis 19:1-29)
Abraham on the other hand took the land that was not looking so good, because he had confidence in the God he served, he was confident that Yahweh is able to turn situations around for his good, (Romans 8:28), he also knew that he was a mobile carrier of God’s presence, so he was not disturbed about the nature of the land he chose.
At the end, Abraham prospered in the land and in his life journey greatly and so shall it be for you too in this year in Jesus name
Keys To Walking And Basking In Glory
1. Adequate Nutrition; Just as it is important for a mother to give her new born baby adequate milk, we also need adequate spiritual nutrition to walk and bask in glory (1 Peter 2:20).
To be adequately fed as a believer, is to have the strong knowledge of the Word of God
And to grow well, you need to desire the sincere milk of the Word of God
It is the Word of God that will serve as your weapon against the works of the devil
The Word of God will also empower you to stand and confront every situation in life.
As David stood and conquered Goliath you also need the knowledge of the Word of God to stand and conquer your fears and adversaries (Joshua 1:8)
2. You Need The Presence Of The Holy spirit: Living your life according to the will of the Holy Spirit is also very important because his presence and daily guidance will help in preventing you from danger bringing you into your rest.
3. Avoid the seven times servant report: 1 Kings 18:42-46 tells us about prophet Elijah who went to Mount Carmel after declaring that there would be abundance of rain, he sent his servant to find out what was happening, and the servant kept coming back to say that there was nothing happening, no sign of rain, yet Elijah pressed on in prayers,until the seventh time when he said he saw something that seemed like a finger.
Like Prophet Elijah you also must not be moved by the negative circumstances around you, do not be moved by the evil reports and results given to you by the experts, rather hold on to what the Word of God says and stand on it till you see positive results
Just like David encouraged himself in the Lord in Ziglag and asked for the ephod so as to know what God is saying, you also must avoid discouragements instead seek the counsel of God in the face of challenges and indeed, you shall pursue overtake and recover all in the (1 Samuel 30:7)
“The Word of God is enough to create anything you want to see in life”
4. Praise God
Psalm 67:6
“Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us.”
Make praising God your daily habit till it becomes your lifestyle, and as you praise God wherever you are, you shall experience increase in every area of your life in Jesus mighty name
