SAY YES TO GOD’S PROMISES

“Whatever God has promised gets stamped with the Yes of Jesus. In him, this is what we preach and pray, the great Amen, God’s Yes and our Yes together, gloriously evident.”  2 Corinthians 1:20 (MSG)You will be shocked how many believers fall for opposition. Beloved, why will you pack up and say it’s not going to work and then you leave what God gave to you just because you are faced with opposition? According to the scriptures, Jesus has already said yes to all the promises of God. Our own part is to say amen and take our stand. Jesus has said yes to divine health! He has said yes to prosperity! He has said yes to victory! He has said yes to the fruit of the womb! He has said yes to husband or wife! He has said yes to the car you desire!  He has said yes to that building! He has said yes for the anointing! He has said yes for growth and yes for peace. The issue is what are you saying to yourself?Rahab said to herself, I may have lived my life as a prostitute, but I won’t die this way. She refused to die a prostitute in Jericho. No one gave her a chance. But she said ‘No! She broke into the lineage of Jesus Christ because she said no to prostitution. Ruth said no to idol worship!  She and Orpah would have had books written of them but no one remembers Orpah. But everyone knows about Ruth because she dared to say no.  She said no when it doesn’t look like it. All around her was crying go back to Moab because there is nothing to look forward to. But she refused, insisting that she cannot worship idol. She ended up breaking into the lineage of Jesus because she dared to say no to what the devil is offering her.I come to declare to you by the authority of heaven that your story will change. Whatever you have cried over in the past is terminated today. What you thought that you have lost is coming back to you.Further Reading: Ruth 1:8-18; Mathew 1:1-6; 2 Corinthians 1:20-21; Hebrews 11:30-31Daily Bible Reading: Morning- Isaiah 1-2; Evening- Galatians 5
