Text: 1 Samuel 16:11 (KJV)
And Samuel said unto
Jesse, Are here all thy children? And he said, There remaineth yet the
youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said unto Jesse, Send
and fetch him: for we will not sit down till he come hither.
One of the
greatest privilege we have from God is that when it is our set time, distance
can never be a barrier to our next
levels. That so-called distance turns around to become an advantage
and this is something we should be thankful for. In our text of today, David
was far in the field when the
servant of God, Samuel came to anoint the one chosen by God. But the good
news is, his location not withstanding but since he was chosen by God,
they had to send someone to fetch him. He was in the bush, all of his brethren and Samuel had to wait (even with a standing ovation) until David came. Psalms 78:70- He
chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds. Friends, when God choose you, he relocates you from
that sheepfold to an elevated end. This
testimony is coming our wayin Jesus name. The truth is that David was in his
training process and he did not give up there as his routine was until his hurried anointing day. Beloved, your year has finally come. He did that assignment given to him
wholeheartedly and God saw his efforts and anointed him as he separated him from the sheepfold. So I urge you not to give
up in that assignment, because it is leading you to your anointing.
That bush
experience you might be going through is actually prepared by God and He is
doing that so that you can come out fully equipped for your honour.Psalms 23:5- Thou preparest a table before
me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup
runneth over. God saw that David was prepared enough and He anointed him to
rule over His people; when David was doing that assignment, he never knew that
the Lord had chosen him as the new King, so be patient. Frankly speaking, we do
not know what God has or is planning until He reveals it to us, but I encourage
you to see that your God given task and experience
as a stepping stone or a training ground to your blessing and never forget to
praise Him in that experience. Also, never forget that this anointing is for glory and not shame. Your oil is in excess,
so endure that bush experience because YOUR
SET TIME IS THIS YEAR IN JESUS NAME
PRAYER POINTS:
1. Oh Lord, wherever I have been
forgotten, may 2022 year be my set season that will speedily bring me out, in Jesus
name.
2. Father, please strengthen me to
go through my process, so that I can arrive at my anointing, in Jesus name.
Action Quote:Do you know that God is clearing and rejecting others for
your anointing and promotion?
Thanks and God bless
