Our Daily Manna October 24, 2017: ODM devotional – Stop The Haste! Let Things Happen!

Topic: Stop The Haste! Let Things Happen! [Tuesday, October 24, 2017]

Basic Scripture: Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

Welcome to today’s devotional encounter with He that is the Chief inventor, the Genesis, the Author, the Convener, the Sustainer and the Finisher or your destiny!

The Holy Ghost is reminding you that no matter how your year 2017 has been, to everything there is a reason and a time to every purpose (Verse 1 in today’s basic text). Whether you are depressed, weep, murmur, complain or use every physical effort at your disposal, I want you to know that until your time for a miracle is up, you are wasting your time. If you don’t have your expectation fulfilled yet, be patient. Don’t fight God secretly in your heart! His calendar for you is on course.

This is the last quarter of this year! Many have died since the year began! That the devil could not kill you and you are alive to be reading this write-up shows that you will be celebrated on this earth, because when there is life, there is hope! Someone said, “The haste of a fool is the slowest thing in the world.”Worry and haste slows down every dream and opens the door for failure and shame!

Never make the mistake of comparing yourself to the people that are ahead of you already. Don’t forget that even the formal Head of Microsoft Corporation, Mr. Bill Gates (also the official richest man in the world today with a personal fortune of over 86 billion dollars), said it took him 26 years when he had a desire/vision , to place a computer on every desk in most homes. He said that the road had been rough and many times, he had felt like switching jobs. But within a quarter of a century, most homes in the developed countries can boast of a computer.

Even though the developing countries are not ‘set free’ yet, he believes his vision is not in vain. Please no matter how it takes, wait! Life is lived in seasons. Your own time for breakthrough is nearer than you think. Premature victory is dangerous! Remember that destiny is an adventure you have to keep pace with. Never forget that the greatest killer of dreams is haste: The desire to reach out for things before the divinely appointed time. Please understand that: There is a time to make things happen and a time to let things happen. Heaven has a great plan for you! Wait! Look up! You will never end up in shame!

Prayer Points: Take this song: Because He lives…

1. Lord of my times and seasons, I wait upon you! I shall not be ashamed (Pray this point seriously).

2. Spirit of self-pity, comparison and haste, loose my family and me and go now in Jesus name!

3. Ask for the grace to wait concerning … (Mention any battle or problem confronting you). Pray about today now!
