COME UP HIGHER.

The Lord our God said to us in Horeb...You have dwelt long enough on this mountain. Turn and take up your journey and go to the hill country of the Amorites and to all their neighbours in the hill country, in the lowland, in the South and on the coast, the land of the Canaanites and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates. Behold, I have set the land before you. Go in and take possession of the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob to give them and to their descendants after them.........................Life in God is deep and inexhaustible. In God, the journey of life has no end neither does it has boundaries. The dynamic life that God has for you is high in height, deep in depth, broad in breadth and long in length. No one can fully exhaust the totality of the life that God has in store for him/her. As you are celebrating the testimony of a good life, God is saying that there is still a better life in store for you.As you are celebrating a better life, God is saying you have not seen the BEST that He has in store for you. Unfortunately, many people today are stucked at a particular level of life that is far below the level God intends for them to have. In the first instance, many people never anticipated that they will get to the kind of levels they are in life so instead of believing God for the next level that He has in store for them per time which is far better than the old level, they become stucked in the old level and never aspire to move higher. God had a plan of moving the children of Israel from the Egypt of bondage and slavery to the Canaan of freedom, abundance and all-round rest. On their way to Canaan, they encountered some challenges because to get to the next level of fullness in God, you will encounter challenges on the way. Instead of believing God for the fortitude to overcome those challenges, the Israelites wanted to go back to their old life. They wanted to cancel God`s next level of freedom and abundance for them while going back to the old level of servitude and slavery because of the free fruits they enjoyed in Egypt. While in the wilderness also on their way to Canaan, they did not co-operate with God to overcome their challenges to get to the next level of the fullness God had in store for them but they resulted into murmuring and complaining and they were on the same spot for uncountable number of years while Canaan was staring at them on the face. God told them that they had dwelt in the wilderness for so long and that if they could take the courage to overcome all the challenges on their way from the wilderness to Canaan with His available help, they will surely possess Canaan thereby moving on to the next level of their life. The summary of my message to you today is that in God, there are limitless levels of abundant and overflowing fullness of life and it is His pleasure/desire/will for you to move from one level to another. Each level of fullness is laden with challenges/giants which you must fight and overcome to get to the next level. Once you fight those giants and challenges with the backing of the Almighty God, you will move to the next level of your life. Complacency is the enemy of divine progress. Never give in to complacency. Never be satisfied with where you are in God as there are greater heights awaiting you if only you will not give in to complacency. A wise man said and I quote...``show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure``. God is saying to you today that...You have stayed on that old spot for a long time...come up higher as I have a better life for you than the old spot that you have stayed for years. God wants you to come up higher in your Spiritual walk and experiences with Him. He wants you to come up higher in your ministry, career, relationships, family/home and in all your endeavours/work of your hands. I see you changing levels in God from one level of glory to another as you embrace responsibility to fight complacency and the giants that decorates each next level in Jesus precious name. Remember that the path of the just is like a shinning light that shines brighter and brighter until the perfect day. There is no end to the brightness and luminance of the just. Also, a perfect door of opportunities and breakthroughs are open unto us but there are many adversaries to contend and fight with but in God, we are more than Conquerors. Shalom!
