Covenant walk

PREPARED PLACE

“And the Lord appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of: Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father;”Genesis 26:2-3.

The covenant is for all, the secrets are shown to some for distinction. While all could subscribe to the covenant, the level of commitment delivers the secret of living. Some may term this as divine partiality but what’s the use of the secret to one who won’t heed to the instruction.

Isaac heard and heeded the covenant word to enter his prepared place. The secret of God leads from the confusing place to the prepared places in life. This is the secret that transforms wanderers to wonders, slaves to signs. Without the covenant secret, living is common and uninteresting.

Covenant location is the secret to fruitful and fulfilled living. Every tree grows best where it is planted by God, not where it is wished by men.

“Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold:and the Lord blessed him. And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great: For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants:and the Philistines envied him.”Genesis 26:12-14.

The place of planting is the prepared place for maximum productivity. God does not lead backwards, he leads forward always. Instead of going down to Egypt, Isaac went forward, became great and grew astronomically. From the shame of a community and wanderer, Isaac became the envy of a nation in one year walking by one covenant secret.

It’s important to remember that prosperity is by the covenant, not the location. The covenant prospers anything and anyone that dwells in his appointed place. Those that follow covenant instructions see hear and become what others cannot become by their obedience of faith.

Leave good behind, become the envy of your world; prepared places await.

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit:for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.”1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

Prayer:

 Thank you Father for the wonders of the covenant that turns the confused to their prepared place in life for distinction. This is my portion and heritage by redemption in the name of Jesus.

COVENANT PLACE

“And the Lord appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of: Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father;”Genesis 26:2-3.

There’s a place called your place in the covenant; personal and specific. The covenant works everywhere but there’s a place for your portion to be delivered. The tree grows best where it is planted by God, not where it is wished by men.

Abraham was under the commandment to leave and go to another country but Isaac was commanded to go to another city instead of another country. He was also under commandment not to go to Egypt the world capital at the time.

Where you live and work matters in the covenant, following divine instructions or the word of God to you make the covenant signs and wonders possible. Your covenant place delivers your covenant portion for wonderful living.

“The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.”Psalms 16:5-6.

It’s important to know where your portion and inheritance is located. It is in God the source of every good resource and your lot in life. The same covenant-keeping God has prepared the portion of your heritage in the covenant place. This is the secret kept for you to discover the things prepared for you and the place appointed to you.

The grass might look greener on the other side but your heritage awaits you at the prepared place. The prepared place and the pleasant places are one and the same. The prepared place is the preferred place where all things are readily awaiting your discovery; covenant place indeed.

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit:for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.”1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

Prayer:

I am delighted father that your love has prepared a place and a heritage for me. The portion of my inheritance is in you, the covenant delivers them by your direction for my distinction in Jesus name.

COVENANT SIGNATURE

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit:for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.”1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

The testimony of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is still relevant in our generation. They are being told over and over again by all and sundry. God however has prepared greater things for his children, after the order of Abraham. Simply put, the seed of Abraham are destined to be greater than Abraham.

The covenant is prepared for manifestation in every generation, the next generation is greater and better than the former. The covenant makes news, new things are the covenant signature or the written word of God. Unimaginable, unthinkable, awe-inspiring and wonders without numbers.

The covenant secret is the deep things of God for a shining life on the earth.

“And, behold, the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir. And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them:and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.”Genesis 15:4-5.

The word of God is his bond, his secret, his conclusion and the beginning of every new thing.  When God speaks, new things happen! Covenant signature. When the word of God is received by the seed of Abraham, their stars shine. There are results that are outstanding, out of this world, what eyes have not seen or signs, and what ears have not heard or wonders become the norm.

The covenant does not command common bit uncommon things; signs and wonders. Every living sign and wonder bears the signature of the covenant. The word from God turns the seed of Abraham to stars living as signs and wonders on the earth.

This is the covenant signature.

“Which doeth great things past finding out; yea, and wonders without number. Lo, he goeth by me, and I see him not: he passeth on also, but I perceive him not. Behold, he taketh away, who can hinder him? who will say unto him, What doest thou?”Job 9:10-12.

Prayer

Thank God for the covenant secret that make signs form sighs and wonders from wanderers. Every covenant word has this turnaround signature In the name of Jesus.

LIVING STAR

“And, behold, the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir. And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them:and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.”Genesis 15:4-5.

Every seed of Abraham is destined to be a star but this is not automatic. Many wonder why some seeds are not living like stars, it’s for lack of light. Light unveils, reveals and rekindles the secrets of God for a shining life. You’re not going to become a star, you are a star at birth shining by lights of discovery.

Isaac and Jacob did not automatically enjoy the heritage of the covenant  God made with their father Abraham until the secret was unveiled to them. Eyes that see, ears that hear and a speaking mouth are covenant needs for unveiling divine secrets. Isaac was on his way to Egypt frustrated and despondent in famine and drought when he found the secret. Jacob was a slave in the house of Laban before he encountered the secret of God. The secret turned a slave to a star and a wanderer to a wonder.

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit:for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.”1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

The secret of God is not given to groups but to a person or an individual. Taking personal responsibility gives access to the secret to living like a star. A son is given, a star is born by an encounter with the secret of God. Your present situation is the beginning, your destination is determined by the discovery of divine secrets.

Coming in contact with Christ enrols into the school of redemption, having the light of life unveils the secret to a lighted life. It’s your turn to see instead of just looking, to hear instead of listening, to obtain instead of feeling the heritage of redemption.

Redemption is not for the reduction but the elevation and distinction of man. Christ gives the light of life, the secrets become revealed for a lighted life.

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us:for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”Galatians 3:13-14.

Prayer:

Thank you father for bringing me into the lighted life by the secret of God. I am no longer a slave, not a wanderer but a star and a wonder in the name of Jesus

ACCESS NOT TICKETS

“What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose. His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth. The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.” Psalms 25:12-14.

Every person has a secret, whatever is not common knowledge to all is your secret. It is the understanding, knowledge or concept behind your actions. It is the deep things about you that lead to paths you take or the steps preferred.

God has a secret, it’s only shown to a few; you can be one of them. Many have asked frequently how they could become one of the custodians of the secret of God. That is easy, the covenant is the secret of God to all generations of men. The fear of God is a prequalification for subscription into the school of divine secrets.

These are not hidden from us but for us in Christ Jesus the Lord.

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit:for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.”1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

The word of God is the custodian of the secret of God, the Holy Spirit give access to divine secrets. Learning is good, certificates abound but the Holy Spirit give access not tickets to the deep things of God. Many are collecting tickets but lack access to the secret or deep things of God. Those with the secret dwell at ease and inherit the earth.

Struggles end, frustrations are turned to celebration by the secret of God. The covenant is God’s secret code for greatness and prosperity on the earth. The Holy Spirit gives inspiration by the word of God and access to the secret of God.

This understanding is not new, Job knew it, no wonder he became the greatest of his time. It’s your turn for greatness by the same secret.

“But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.”Job 32:8.

“When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness; As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle;”Job 29:3-4.

Prayer:

Dear father, thank you for showing me the difference between tickets and access to excellence. That which is from above is above all. That gives me access to excess in life by the same Christ Jesus.

OBSCURITY TO PROSPERITY

“When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness; As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle; When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;”Job 29:3-5.

While I was younger, I was taught the virtues of hard work and handiwork. Meritocracy was the norm, the first persons in every class were rewarded with a token, some of which are still useful today.

There was no shortcut to excellence but hard work and handiwork. The secret of God compliments these two virtues by working smart. The covenant is not mystical nor magically but the secret of God distinguishes everyone that receives them. The trade secret to every human endeavour, career and business is unveiled by the covenant.

Job became the greatest man in the east by the secret of God, he saw a path through the dark places of life. There’s never a good time to take the right step, the person with the secret knows the right time to take the next step.

“Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold:and the Lord blessed him. And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great: For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants:and the Philistines envied him.”Genesis 26:12-14.

Isaac sowed at the time that most of his contemporaries were discouraged, despondent and dejected. The secret of God made him to sow at a time most people thought it was hopeless and useless based on available facts. Many of the residents were busy watching the clouds and the weather channels for the right time to sow. Those with the secret sow at the best time for a great harvest in life. It’s time to walk through the dark places of life by the secret of God.

The secret of God is all it takes to become great in life irrespective of the career, business or endeavour. The secret is the way out of obscurity to prosperity. Those that work smart never lack great results by the covenant.

“But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”Psalms 1:2-3.

Prayer:

Thank you father for the secret that turns obscurity to prosperity by the covenant. Your word is the secret to access divine secret for working smart in Jesus name.

LIFE SECRETS

“When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness; As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle; When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;”Job 29:3-5.

There are times and seasons it seems like everything comes to a halt, ideas, initiatives, solutions seem to be far from us. It’s like a world at a standstill and the next big idea seems unreachable; breakdowns abound more than breakthroughs. Times like this call for sober and sombre reflection as the way forward is not in view.

It’s amazing to know that the earth keeps moving irrespective of personal, individual, community or national stagnation. In every darkness light is a necessity, it lights up your life.

Seeing what others cannot see, comprehension instead of confusion is the purpose of light for life. The secret of God keeps covenant partners on the move when the whole world comes to a standstill. The covenant gives light to every darkness and terminates stagnation.

“But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”Psalms 1:2-3.

The word of God is the charge d’affaires on the earth. The covenant word comes as instruction, guide or direction. The secrets of God is the ticket to making a difference and being distinguished in life.

Every breakdown is turned into a breakthrough in every human endeavour. Stagnation persists until one with the secret shows up. Become the solution, the change-maker, the trader in divine secrets by the covenant. The covenant is God’s template or manual of operation, his word is the covenant language.

Covenant connection gives access to life secrets without measure.

“What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose. His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth. The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.”Psalms 25:12-14.

Prayer:

Thank you father for the covenant of blessing delivered as life secrets to practitioners. This is my ticket to escape stagnation and frustration in the name of Jesus.

UNCHANGED

“While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.”Genesis 8:22

There are some corporations, companies and industries that have lasted over a century or the period of one hundred years and are still being highly rated. Many of the frontline companies or corporations today are very young and many young people will not notice this situation.

What happened to the older corporations, why could they not stand the test of time? These are questions that only a few minds can comprehend or consider. Some of the companies that held sway in the ’60s and ’70s are nowhere to be found today.

Change seems to be the only constant, the changer remains unchanged. The covenant-keeping God changes everything but remains unchanged. The covenant is the template for every enduring change on the earth. The covenant is the greatest force at work on the earth, it holds all the fabric together.

“When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness; As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle; When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;”Job 29:3-5.

The covenant makes the difference by working out smart solutions. The cutting edge solutions to real-life problems are the covenant secrets. Things and time change but the edge to be distinguished are accessed by the covenant.

God is not only at the beginning and end but is in the middle or in between. The covenant fathers were the leaders of change with the help of the unchanging God. Beginning with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to Job, David, Daniel and the prophets.

The covenant secrets are the ticket to work change with the unchanging God and not be changed. One generation speaks to another, the seeds are turned to stars by the secrets of God; the everlasting covenant.

“What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose. His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth. The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.”Psalms 25:12-14

Prayer:

Thank you father for showing me the secrets of life and times for distinction in every age and generation. Your unchanging hand makes everything to change in my Favour in the name of Jesus Christ.

COVENANT SECRETS

“I said, Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom. But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding. Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.”Job 32:7-9.

Respect for the older or elders is an African traditional and social virtue.  Greetings, honour and regard are one of the things that make us village champions.

Wisdom is an expectation from the aged, this is not always the case. The oldest is sometimes thought to be wisest but Job has a contrary opinion. Some have lived all their lives in foolishness, being old therefore will not make them wise suddenly.

The covenant gives age-appropriate wisdom to become the solution provider in every generation. The wisdom of the ancient and the modern are combined to grant divine wisdom. The covenant is divine wisdom for earthly living.

“When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness; As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle; When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;”Job 29:3-5.

Job became the greatest man in the east trading divine secrets. The secret of God renews your youth, ageless and timeless.

Covenant secrets are the difference maker between seeds and stars. Many are running with the old wisdom and of the age for current realities to their disappointment. The covenant grant secrets from above for extraordinary living in contemporary times. The covenant is the timeless and ageless wisdom from the almighty, ancient and modern God to man. This is the wisdom that sets the pace and makes an eternal difference.

The covenant is the secret master card for an extraordinary earthly lifestyle.

“But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”Psalms 1:2-3.

Prayer:

Thank you father for the secrets of the covenant that makes for distinguished living on earth. The secrets of God makes all the difference. The covenant is my ticket to triumph by the same Christ Jesus.
