God make thee as Ephraim
“And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.” Genesis 48:20 (KJV)
In Genesis 48 Joseph just set out purely to see his dying father and routinely took along with him his two sons Manasseh and Ephraim.
However, destiny awaited Ephraim that day for he was supernaturally favored and placed before his senior brother Manasseh.
As you diligently go about God’s assignment for your life today God’s supernatural favor of upliftment that HE had purposed to bless you with before the foundations of the world will come to pass in your life today in Jesus name.
As the day started there was no extraordinary indication that double fruitfulness was awaiting Ephraim that day, even Joseph who took the two sons to Israel for the blessings had no foreknowledge of what is going to happen.
Suddenly as Israel reached out to bless the two sons he placed his right hand on Ephraim’s head and even when Joseph tried to correct him he refused. “And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations.” Genesis 48:19 KJV)
Praise God today for HE has determined to bring to pass into your life the double accelerated blessings ordained for you before the foundations of the world.
Trust Him to distinguish and make you outstanding before your peers in Jesus name.
The day stated ordinarily for David too, he was diligently tending to the sheep and protecting them as he usually did, but a message came that the Prophet Samuel and the rest of his family were all standing up waiting for him. It was when he got there that he was anointed King of Israel.
God has some Great Blessings HE had purposed for you before the foundations of the world confess it and praise Him for them to be manifested in your life as you daily diligently do your life’s assignment.
God make thee as Ephraim.
Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted
“And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses; there is a noise of war in the camp. And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear.” Exodus 32: 17-18 (KJV)
Joshua heard the noise coming from the camp of the Israelites and immediately concluded that it was the noise of war. However, Moses who had been in the presence of God knew directly from God that it was not war but a compromised, corrupted noise of betrayal and deception.
Do you hastily come to a conclusion like Joshua based on your knowledge and experience rather than hearing from God directly?
The best way to operate from is to speak and act from the knowledge of the All-seeing Most High God, who not only knows all but, sees all.
The noise that you hear from you and your initial judgment based on your fears; facts and experience may not be accurate.
Thank God that through Christ we are seated within the heavenly places and in a much more comfortable position than Moses was with God on the mountain we can through the power of the Holy Spirit know precisely what is happening.
Joshua found out the correct information from Mosses, and you will think Joshua will never conclude hastily again in his life but he did still when the Gibeonites deceived him and the elders of Israel in Joshua 9.
God did not write Joshua off for making that same mistake again so why are you not forgiving yourselves for making that same mistake again.Don’t also totally condemn that brother or sister for making a mistake.If God can forgive, forget and give another opportunity so you can do so too Christ Jesus helping you.
Joshua sincerely repented and learned from the lessons and successfully led the children of Israel into the Promised Land. You too can learn and genuinely turn away your mistakes and go and sin no more.
What noise is around you today? Honestly depend and discern with the Holy Spirit to know what it is not only all about but also equally receive from God the Word and the Wisdom to apply to the situation.
Is there no balm in Gilead? “
Is there no balm in Gilead?
“Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?” Jeremiah 8:22 (KJV)
Our risen Lord Jesus Christ who we again reminded ourselves of HIS resurrection is the Balm of Gilead that has the capacity, ability and the willingness to solve every challenge you may face in life.
Yes, there is a balm in Gilead that can heal you of any of life’s ailment that appears challenging to you.
There is no need for you to say during the day that you belong to Jesus and at night you are consulting other powers to assist you.
Jesus Christ alone is your sufficiency.
Don’t be deceived into joining any other medium or group to help you attain success outside the all-conquering name of Jesus.
Others may be doing it, and they seem to be making it. It is self-deception.
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6 (KJV)
As you seek HIM first and wholeheartedly Trust HIM all the things you need will surely follow.
Be careful of the mixed multitudes that are into other ways of making it but still uses the church or fellowship as a cover.For instance, yoga meditation is not the same as the Bible meditation. Any appearance of discipline outside of Christ may appear good but it is not of God.
Elijah was from Tishbe in Gilead. He challenged the children of Israel to stop oscillating between God and Baal.
Choose the true living God today.
“That we henceforth are no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;” Ephesians 4:14
