READ: 1SAMUEL2:1-10
There are
times in life when you need a change of location in order to experience a
breather. A change of location may be what you need in order to step into your
miracle. You may need to break new grounds if you must experience professional
fulfillment. Here are times when some people have experienced the greatest
breakthroughs by moving into a new environment, or accepting a new challenge.
You may ask, “How can I change my location?” With God’s help, it is possible
for you to change your location. It is possible for God to take someone from
the dunghill and put him or her on the throne. 1 Samuel 2:7-8 says: “The
LORD makes poor and makes rich; He brings low and lifts up. He raises the poor
from the dust and lifts the beggar from the ash heap, to set them among princes
and make them inherit the throne of glory.” I prefer the throne to the
dunghill. It is time to change location from the dunghill to the throne. In
Samuel 16:11-12, David was in the jungle looking after the sheep when, one day,
God came for him and he had a change of location. It was dramatic. His father
never thought he could become a king. He was ordained a king and God worked it
out for the reigning king to invite him to the palace, without knowing that he
was inviting his successor. In Exodus 3:1-12, the Bible tells us the story of
Moses. The Bible tells us that he was at the backside of a desert, a forgotten
40-year-old fugitive. Everybody had written him off, even he himself. The
Almighty God picked him up from there and changed his location; he became a
leader of a nation. In 1 Kings 18:17-20, for three and a half years, Elijah was
running from Ahab; God changed his situation and he became the commander of an
army. In Psalm 113:7-9, the Bible says, “He raises the poor out of the dust, and lifts
the needyout of the ash heap, that He may seat him with princes-with the
princes of His people.” The Almighty God is able to change your
location if you allow Him. He can take you from the congregation of the dead
and put you in the Church of the first-born. He can take you from the society
of ‘dogs’ (Matthew 15:21-26) and transfer you to the fellowship of sons (John
1:11-12).
MEMORIZE:
PSALM62:11 –God has spoken once, twice I have heard this: that power belongs to
God.
