Isaiah 43:18-21 KJV — Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. [19] Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
[20] The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen. [21] This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
God is making a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert; the former things have passed away and He is doing new things.
Before it starts, he declares to;
- Create expectations
- Build faith
- Inspire positive actions
This is the time to get ready and strategically position yourself in His divine agenda for the end times.
As we celebrate Easter, let us reflect on the divine agenda for the end-times. The Lord has declared that He is doing a new thing. The Bible says behold “I do a new thing! I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert!” God is about to do a new thing that will create new possibilities and blessings. He will make a way where there seems to be no way and rivers of refreshing in deserts.
It is time to be part of God’s grand agenda. CATCH the vision, get ready to OVERCOME obstacles, and to REACH for the mark. Forget those things which are behind and press on towards the mark of the high calling.
Where there is no vision the people perish; because even distractions look like opportunities to them. It is time to tell your soul that God will make a way where there seems to be no way! He will create rivers in the desert and make a way in the wilderness.
This is the time to;
- GROW deep roots in God
- PREACH the gospel around the world
- INFLUENCE territories with your light. See Matthew 5:13-15
- OCCUPY till He comes through strategic trading
There is a shift in the atmosphere and in these last days, we must strive to;
GROW deep roots in God
There is so much work of service to be done and the only way to get it done is to GROW deep roots in God. If the work of world missions can be done, then we must be perfected to serve in the church (See Ephesians 4:10-16). Our church must mature to the point that each assembly can continue without the active involvement of their apostle. We must be able to take charge and own the church, until our man of God can move on to other places. Apostle Paul was able to plant churches all around the territory because the church could continue without him.
PREACH the gospel around the world
Reaching the world with the Gospel. Global evangelism is high on God’s agenda. God wants to reach the unreached and preach the gospel to all nations (See Mark 16:15-20, Matthew 28:18-20, John 14:12-14). If any man believes in Christ, he will do the works of Christ and even greater works.
INFLUENCE territories with light
In Matthew 5:13-15, He lights candles and strategically positions them to shine and give light to the household. You must catch the fire, flourish where you are planted, and influence territories! This is the will of God. You are the salt of the earth and the light of the world!
CREATE wealth through strategic trading
Christianity must go beyond coming to fellowship to bind the devil, and going home to beg from his children. Through strategic trading, we must take over the wealth of the nations.
Listen! No matter how educated or wealthy, or powerful or intelligent you are, if you are not involved in these four things, you are far from what God is doing.
As we celebrate Easter, may you reflect these things: CATCH the vision, OVERCOME obstacles, and REACH for the mark.
Stay blessed
