Jesus calls John ''more than a prophet.”— Gospel of Matthew 11:9
______________
Why? He revealed God to humanity. His role was not to tell people their secrets or problems in their houses but to Reveal the Creator to its creation.

Revealing Him makes you greater.

And the hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel._1Kgs.18.46
__________________
In common sense, there is what we term as impossibilities. Ahab travelled via horse while Elijah ran by foot but Elijah got ahead of Ahab to Jezreel.

You may be competing with people who have humongous abilities & godfathers. But,

I speak Devine speed upon you. It shall be a discussion everywhere. They will ask, " how did you reach here? You shall tell them the hand of the Lord was upon me."

The impossible can be possible with God.

Going to heaven is purely what Jesus did for you not by your works.

For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place._Jer.29.10
____________
When Israel got captured to captivity, they thought it is over. No hope left. But God in the midst of such a challenge he spoke hope. That after the expiration of 70yrs, he shall bring them out.

Every problem you are in today, believe it has the expiration date.

For a long time, we have missed out on the light on this verse. After that the sons of sceva were wounded by a possessed man, the bible goes on to let us know that the name of the lord was magnifiedby this act.

"And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified._Acts.19.17"

I used to think that God's name is praised and revered only when we cast demons out. Little did I know that even when the demon overcomes our energy, still the name of the Lord must be praised.

In the verse above, the devil thought he had victory, but his victory over sons of sceva also became a reason why the name of the Lord (not devil's name) has to be magnified.

Both in our lowest moment, in our defeat and in our victory still God must be glorified.

Hezekiah removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan._2 Kings 18:4
_____________________
While in the wilderness,God instructed Moses to make a bronze snake. Whoever that was to look at could recover from any illness. As time went by, this image caught all the attention of Israelites until the Israelites began to worship it and not God almighty. God had to instruct Hezekiah to pull down such an image to bring idolatry to an end.

Which is this thing that you have exalted above the knowledge of Christ?

Pray: I bring down every stronghold that exalts itself above the knowledge of Christ in my life, my marriage & my christian walk in Jesus name.

Many times as believers when we read about prophet Enoch's walk with God, our assumption is that he was sin free. But that is wrong thinking. What Enoch did that guaranteed him holiness is to keep his life next to the holy life.

If a man is in Christ Jesus he is a new creation and the old is gone. There is no day in this life and the life to come that men can be righteous. What we ought to do is to seek after His righteousness and automatically counted righteous.

Enoch dramatized what can happen to you reading. If following Christ becomes your focus, you will enter into the realm of the immortal men.

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends._John 15:13
_________________
Dear ladies and gentlemen. This kind of love can never be found in humans. Stop stressing yourself to find it in women or men. It can only be found in one; Christ Jesus.

He laid His life down for you so that you stop living an inferior life. Pick up the life of Jesus & personalize it. Trade with it, teach with it, even as a preacher use it to perform signs and wonders.
Do not let the loo life of God keep lying on the floor.

Have you ever pleaded with God to take away a particular struggle, only to be met with silence? Like Paul, you may have prayed and fasted, believing that deliverance would be the proof of your faith. But instead, God whispers something deeper: “My grace is sufficient for thee” (2 Corinthians 12:9).
Sometimes, victory doesn’t come through the removal of the problem, but through the realisation that the grace to endure it has already been placed within you.
When you meet people who have survived deep tragedy yet still keep their faith and lift their hands in worship, honour them. Don’t measure faith by the absence of suffering. Often, greater pain and heavier trials are signs of a greater measure of grace.
God may shelter you not because you are more favoured, but because He knows you don't carry sufficient grace to endure certain trials without falling away from Him.There’s no shame in that ,but it does shift our perspective.

Never assume that quiet endurance reflects weak faith. True strength isn’t shown by how many storms you’ve avoided, but by how many you’ve survived and still stood firm.

"You have no right to someone's pocket. You have your own hands, Work!"_Emmanuel makandiwa

You have tried everything and it has failed. My advice, try prayer and go back to the everything that was misbehaving before. You will post your testimony in the comment section.

The whole Bible is full of war. The war between spirits; God and Satan. Both Spirits use vessels(man) to gain victory. God is in the business of restoring us to our original state b4 the fall whereas the devil fights hard to maintain his stolen victory. But who will win? He already won at Calvary.
