ISAIAH 6:1
_"In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple."_
Many a time we are wondering why aren't we encountering the supernatural? We might be praying, fasting, reading the Word of God , and everything that the Word commands us to but somewhere we are missing the mark. And if prophet Isaiah who had already been prophesying until he realised this then what about us beloved?
Who has become the king of our life? When we know that God alone is the king and should be the king of our life but who is it and what is it that we have made the king of our life today, in other words, what or who has taken pre-eminence in our life?
Let's examine our hearts and try to evaluate and then try to evacuate whatever it is that's taken dominion in our hearts. For dominion is a king. What is it that's occupying our mind so much that unbeknown we are meditating on it day and night rather the Word and God.
Husband, wife, children, money, property, lover, problems of life or illegitimate thoughts of greed, lust, manipulation, procrastination and such as these, what is it that is controlling your soul and has relegated the position of God in your life? I'm not saying that family ,relations and money is bad but when these things start consuming our time and energy then it's putting us on the pedestal of enormity with God.
James 4:4
"whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God."
When we put our mind and hearts in things that are not God, we are by default shifted in the state of carnality or wordliness and thereby we stand as fornicators before God , for this is how we are known according to James 4:4.
We all have a plethora of issues in life, and it's alright to be concerned about them but contemplating about them and being overwhelmed by them means treating those things like a king for it is to a king only that attention is paid to and our soul is engaged day and night.
But unless these idols that are dominating us like a king die we cannot see the true face and nature of God. We cannot realise what God wants us to do, which direction to take, how to fulfill our assignment and purpose.
Let's recognise the king of our life and ask for God's help to put it to death so we can see the Lord our God.
PRAYER:
HOLY SPIRIT POINT OUR ATTENTION TO EVERY UZZIAH OF OUR LIFE SO THAT WE CAN SEE YOU. HAVE MERCY ON US O LORD AND FORGIVE US FOR THE IDOLS THAT WE HAVE BEEN TREATING AS KING UNTIL NOW . FATHER TODAY BREAK ALL THOSE THINGS FROM OUR LIFE AND CLEAN OUR HEARTS IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME WE PRAY.
AMEN!!!
