READ: PSALM
113:5-8
The Lord
can take you from a dunghill and place you on the throne. He has done this for
many. This year the Lord will take you to the throne. Joshua was a servant of
Moses. He was unknown. When the Lord told him he was going to succeed Moses, he
thought he was dreaming. ‘How could a servant suddenly become the President of
a nation?’ He asked. He kept resisting the offer until he had to accept it by
force. Why did God pick Joshua?
“And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had laid his hands upon him; and the children of Israel hearkened to him, and did as the LORD commanded Moses.” (Deuteronomy 34:9).
One day Moses laid hands on his servant Joshua and transferred the Holy Spirit into him. From that moment dramatic things began to occur which eventually culminated in his arrival on the throne. In Genesis 2:7, after God formed man with ordinary dust, He breathed into the dust and man became a living soul. When the Holy Spirit comes into business He will take it from ordinary to extra-ordinary. If all you sell is water and the Holy Spirit comes into it, your water will be the one everybody will be craving. If the Holy Spirit is active in your church it does not matter how remote the place is; thousands will come there because of Him.
Philip who was only a Deacon serving food to widows and washing the dishes in the early church had an encounter with the Holy Spirit through which he brought joy to a whole city (Acts 8:5-8). He later went to Samaria and all the demons fled. Through him, the Gospel eventually came to Africa. The Lord can take you from the place nothingness to a height of glory. He also did it for T.L. Osborne who was the eleventh out of twelve children of same parents. He was what you will call an unwanted child, an accidental birth. But when the Holy Spirit came into his life he became a famous world Evangelist. The Lord is looking for those He will use. Will you accept Him today?
