Are you an Orphan?

[The Glory Unveiled]

I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. [ John 14:18 NIV ]

Adam and Eve abandoned humanity to the care of the devil. However, God, out of His abundant love, adopted us into His family. Psalm 27:10 states, “Though my father and mother forsake me, the LORD will receive me.” God has received us into His family and will not forsake us. When Jesus executed our adoption transaction through His life and death, He had to return to the Father. In John 14, He reassures us that He will not leave us as orphans and promises to come to us. Subsequently, He sends a different personality—the Holy Spirit. This implies that the Holy Spirit is Jesus coming to us, our Parent on earth. Recognizing the Holy Spirit’s ministry and role in our lives actualizes His parenting reality. Regrettably, there are many orphaned Christians among us, living without acknowledging the Holy Spirit’s influence. You don’t have to be an orphan anymore. Free yourself from wandering and making life choices on your own. Let the Holy Spirit help, guide and direct you, as is His ministry. Jesus is coming to you through the Holy Spirit; embrace Him and allow His influence in every sphere of your life. Let Him assist you—aren’t you tired of navigating life alone, tired of the struggles and stress? Let the Holy Spirit lead and parent you henceforth.

Prayer_Bead: Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for Your presence in my life through the minsitry of the Holy Spirit. Thank you for helping me.

Deep and hidden things

[The Glory Unveiled]

But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. [ 1 Corinthians 2:10 KJV ]

Humans are limited in many ways. This limitation is supposed to be a blessing in disguise, providing us the opportunity to trust the one who is limitless—God. A blind person can walk on a narrow bridge without falling into the water underneath if they follow the lead of someone who sees. The seeing person becomes their eyes, allowing them to navigate the bridge without challenges. The same analogy applies to our relationship with God. It is possible to know all things, see the end from the beginning, and plan for events months and years in advance when we trust the all-knowing One. He becomes our guide, enabling us to walk in faith without needing to see or accomplish the impossible on our own. As God takes action, we experience it by following and obeying Him. Our anchor text begins with a statement of fact: “Eyes have not seen, ears have not heard, neither has the heart conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him.” Then, it continues, almost contradicting the earlier statement, by saying that God has revealed these things to us by His Spirit. Here, we find a crack in the initial statement that believers can exploit. No one can know what God has prepared for themselves or others, nor the deep things of God. The only entity aware of it all is the Spirit of God. Because we have the Spirit of God and maintain a living relationship with Him, we can glimpse into the mind of God. This exception is reserved for the Spirit of God and those who submit to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. If you aim to transcend the natural limitations of life, submit to the Holy Spirit and follow His lead.

Prayer_Bead: Heavenly Father, thank you for Your Spirit in me. I live a supernatural life as I align with His leading and guidance.

The complete toolkit

[The Glory Unveiled]

“That is why you need to get God’s full armour. Then on the day of evil, you will be able to stand strong. And when you have finished the whole fight, you will still be standing.” [ Ephesians‬ ‭6‬:‭13‬ ‭ERV‬‬ ]

An armour is meant to protect the bearer. However, poorly worn armour can lead to the bearer’s downfall. When David faced Goliath in battle, Saul offered his personal armour for David to use. Unfortunately, David couldn’t even move in it (1 Samuel 17:39). This means that the armour, intended to protect him, became an impediment to his movement and battle skills. Goliath met his demise because he lacked head armour thinking he was the best fighter and no soldier could get to his head. But he was wrong. Every battle requires specific armour tailored to its type. While each crisis demands unique strategies, there’s a universal solution for all crises: “the whole armor of God.” Regrettably, some believers don’t wear the complete armour of God. Instead, they wear select pieces, convinced they understand the situation and only need those specific pieces. The full armour is designed for all-around protection; omitting any piece leaves us vulnerable in the area it was meant to protect. It’s akin to having a toolkit but not using or lacking the skills to use the tools. Your inability to use the tools is not a condemnation of the tools but of yourself. This is the reason we are encouraged to put on the full armour of God through our obedience and alignment with the word of God. So that we can stand on the evil day—the day of tears, pains, challenges and temptations.

Prayer_Bead: Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for crafting an armour for my complete safety and peace. I put it on daily through my obedience to your word. In Jesus’ name.

Our super-intercessor

[The Glory Unveiled]

“And in a similar way, the Holy Spirit takes hold of us in our human frailty to empower us in our weakness. For example, at times we don’t even know how to pray, or know the best things to ask for. But the Holy Spirit rises up within us to super-intercede on our behalf, pleading to God with emotional sighs too deep for words.” [ Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭26‬ ‭TPT‬‬ ]

If there is one common trait among all humans, it is human frailty. Despite our outward strength, beneath the surface lies a burden of weakness. God intentionally instilled this need in us so that we may yearn for His assistance. Whatever we lack, God is abundant in—especially strength. When we turn to Him for help, His empowerment transforms our weaknesses into apparent strength. Consider Adam and Eve; their symbolic nakedness, representing weakness, is covered by God’s glory, making them appear strong. However, when they chose disobedience, relying on themselves, they realized their nakedness (utter weakness). It is God’s strength that conceals our weaknesses, as illustrated in the preceding text. At times, our human weaknesses may leave us unsure of what to pray for. In such moments, the Holy Spirit rises within us to super-intercede, overriding our feeble words and presenting His own to the Father on our behalf. Just imagine the remarkable results when God prays for you. Would you not prefer to rejoice in the intercessions of the Holy Spirit and embrace your weaknesses as they create opportunities? The apostle Paul, in 2 Corinthians 12:9, expresses his willingness to glory in his infirmities, allowing the power of Christ to rest upon him. Though you may be weak, your vulnerabilities can serve as occasions for the glory of God to rest upon you.

Prayer_Bead: Heavenly Father, thank you for how much you love me. Thank you for Your Holy Spirit in me and His ministry.

Wisdom_Quote: Your weakness can be a package of opportunity or a baggage of death.

God is calling out

[The Glory Unveiled]

Again the LORD called, “Samuel!” And Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, “Here I am; you called me.”
“My son,” Eli said, “I did not call; go back and lie down.” [ 1 Samuel 3:6 NIV ]

God is always calling on us, one way or the other. Our inability to hear Him is not an issue of God’s refusal to call to us. It is a matter of not being able to recognize the voice of God when He calls. If not for the guidance of Eli, Samuel would have thought that God never spoke to him or called out to him. It is the same with many of us who feel God does not talk to us. Samuel didn’t know the voice of God and so, he would think that God never spoke to him. God usually speaks in His house. Samuel was in the house of God when God called out to him. And we are the house of God, Bethel, the conduit of God to earth. We are Heaven’s medium of communication and relationship with the earth. As a result of who we are to heaven, we need not only to learn to hear from God but to position ourselves well for the communication to take place. Samuel was positioned right but he didn’t know the voice of God. Both requirements are important for heaven to communicate and for us to hear and respond. Could it be that God is calling out to you, maybe to initiate a relationship but you’re unable to recognize His voice? Could it be that you are not familiar with the beckoning of God? And that you might be going to the wrong people instead of God? God is drawing our attention to Himself today, be still and know that He is God.

Prayer_Bead: Dear Lord, thank you for calling out to me and creating opportunities for me to commune with you.
