Topic: It Will Last
SCRIPTURE: I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him. Ecclesiastes 3:14
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Your freedom by Jesus Christ is an irreversible action.
One of the essential features of the Power of God is durability in effect. That is to say whatever God does is long lasting and can stand the test of time. That is why we can confidently say that the Power of God is durable in effect (Ecclesiastes 3:14). This also implies that the Power of God produces lasting results in the lives of people as well as on nations. Our anchor Scripture confirms the durability of God’s Power, and this is corroborated by John 8:36, “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed”. That is, you are irreversibly free. Your freedom by Jesus Christ is an irreversible action.
I came to the Lord first in 1979 and rededicated my life to God on the 12th of May, 1986. Some of my old friends with whom I used to hang around together said: “We give you six weeks, and you will join us again.” At that time, I was in the higher institution, and we were about to write a major examination. That was the time I rededicated my life to God and joined campus fellowship. So, one of them said that maybe it was the fear of the examination that made me give my life to Christ; another one said that maybe I saw a girl in the fellowship, and I was trying to go after her. They said that I would join them after six weeks, but 34 years after, the “six weeks” has not come, and will never come. This is because whatever God does is durable.
When people see how God moves in our lives, things happening effortlessly, God building the Glory Dome in the Lord’s Garden for Himself and people trooping to church en mass, they say that “such things don’t last; let’s give them time.” But it is lasting, and it shall continue to last because God did it by His power.
Beloved, don’t be afraid for your future; if it was God who did that thing for you, it will last. Don’t be afraid for your healing or deliverance; if God healed or delivered you, it will last. No devil can bring that infirmity, affliction or bondage back. Don’t be afraid for your marriage, if God ordained it, it will last.
Remember this: Your freedom by Jesus Christ is an irreversible action.
