DEAR CHILD OF GOD: DON’T GO DOWN TO EGYPT!

DEAR CHILD OF GOD: DON’T GO DOWN TO EGYPT!

“Now there was a FAMINE (ECONOMIC CRISIS) in the land [of Canaan], besides the previous FAMINE that had occurred in the days of Abraham. So Isaac went to Gerar, to Abimelech king of the Philistines. 2 The Lord appeared to him and said, “DO NOT GO DOWN TO EGYPT; stay in the land of which I will tell you . . .” Genesis 26:1-16.

No matter how DEADEN and DARKEN your situation or circumstances are, or the FAMINE – ECONOMIC CRISIS – in your life, you need to know, you are a COVENANT child and you don’t need to be bewildered to let anything make you GO DOWN TO EGYPT or learn of their ways as in the world systems as govern by satan and cohorts, in order for you to MAKE things easier in your doing life and to live godly. Inform yourself that you ARE in the world, but NOT of the world ways of doing life to live godly at the same. For you ARE of God and the GREATER GOD lives in you as it’s written:

“YOU ARE OF GOD, little children, and have OVERCOME them: BECAUSE GREATER IS HE THAT IS IN YOU, THAN HE THAT IS IN THE WORLD. 5 THEY ARE OF THE WORLD: therefore speak they of the WORLD, and the WORLD heareth them. 6 WE ARE OF GOD: he that KNOWETH God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error” 1 John 4:4-6.

“For WHATSOEVER IS BORN of God OVERCOMETH THE WORLD: and this is the VICTORY THAT OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, EVEN OUR FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5.

 Therefore, by the enabling GRACE and the POWER of the GREATER one inside you, you can confront your situation, that is to say, that MOUNTAIN or VALLEY or ROUGH places or CROOKED roads of your life can be overcome triumphantly. This is by pondering on God’s WORD – that is, MEDITATING, on the covenant WILL of God  in your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus on that subject MATTER concerning you; and this is based on your believe and faith on the WORD, as led by the Blessed Holy Spirit, in order to make and ensure your way to the PROSPERITY and GOOD SUCCESS in God’s PURPOSE for you – Joshua 1:8-9; 3 John 2; Psalms 37:25; Psalms 35:27; Psalms 1:1-3.

Upon the knowledge and understanding in SCRIPTURAL context of God’s WORD to ENSURE you become in God in Christ Jesus, I can say to you today, to be STRONG and very COURAGEOUS in the Lord because your VICTORY and TRIUMPH is a certainty. It is your right in grace in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead as says in Joshua 1:1-9 and Isaiah 40:3-5 and 1 John 5:3-5.

In the scriptural context of Genesis 26:1-16, EGYPT stands for one’s STATE of – unbelief, backsliding, famine, economic crisis, hunger, joblessness, hopelessness, faithlessness, lovelessness, setbacks, failures, pain, hurt, depression, the unbeliever acts of doing life and such like. And, as a child of God, it thus means, that you don’t need to FAKE it to make and achieve greatness in LIFE and GODLINESS. Therefore, DARE TO BELIEVE in God’s WORD and act upon it in the FAITH, and you will BECOME as the covenant Isaac BECAME when he act on his covenant will of God’s WORD concerning him when the opportunity to act on God’s WORD shows up to deal with the economic crisis that almost bewildered him.

If you are on the RED LIGHT of life, please stop and take a purse, take time to ponder on the WORD of grace and patiently wait through the AMBER LIGHT until the GREEN LIGHT of FAITH shows up – then go and BECOME as you are LED of God by the Holy Spirit in His WORD accordingly – Genesis 26:12-16.

It’s wishes and PRAYERS for you today, that you may experience the BLESSEDNESS of God in times of your challenges in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For God, who commanded the LIGHT TO SHINE OUT OF DARKNESS, hath SHINED IN OUR HEARTS, to Give The Light Of The Knowledge of the glory of God in the FACE of Jesus Christ” 2 Corinthians 4:6.

“Now there was a FAMINE (ECONOMIC CRISIS) in the land [of Canaan], besides the previous FAMINE that had occurred in the days of Abraham. So Isaac went to Gerar, to Abimelech king of the Philistines. 2 The Lord APPEARED to him and said, “DO NOT GO DOWN TO EGYPT; stay in the land of which I will tell you. 3 Live temporarily [as a resident] in this land and I will be with you and will BLESS and FAVOR you, for I will give all these lands to you and to your descendants, and I will ESTABLISH and carry out the oath which I swore to Abraham your father. 4 I will make your descendants MULTIPLY as the stars of the heavens, and will give to your descendants all these lands; and by your descendants shall all the nations of the earth be BLESSED, 5 because Abraham LISTENED to and OBEYED My voice and [consistently] kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws.” . . . 12 Then Isaac PLANTED [seed] in that land [as a farmer] and REAPED in the same year a hundred times [as much as he had planted], and the Lord BLESSED and FAVORED him. 13 And the man [Isaac] BECAME great and gained more and more until he BECAME very wealthy and extremely distinguished; 14 he OWNED flocks and herds and a great household [with a number of servants], and the Philistines ENVIED him. 15 Now all the wells which his father’s servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines stopped up by filling them with dirt. 16 Then Abimelech said to Isaac, “Go away from here, because you are far too powerful for us.” 17 So Isaac left that region and camped in the Valley of Gerar, and settled there” Genesis 26:1-5, 12-16 Amplified.

“And this is the CONFIDENCE that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to HIS WILL, he heareth us: 15 and if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him” 1 John 5:14-15.

“CAST NOT AWAY THEREFORE YOUR CONFIDENCE, which hath great recompence of reward. 36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. 37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. 38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. 39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul” Hebrews 10:35-39.

“BE STRONG AND OF A GOOD COURAGE: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them. 7 Only be thou STRONG AND VERY COURAGEOUS, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest. 8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. 9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest” Joshua 1:6-9.

“He shall DELIVER thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee. 20 IN FAMINE HE SHALL REDEEM THEE FROM DEATH: AND IN WAR FROM THE POWER OF THE SWORD. 21 Thou shalt be HID from the SCOURGE of the TONGUE: neither shalt thou be AFRAID OF DESTRUCTION when it cometh.  22 At DESTRUCTION and FAMINE thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou be afraid of the BEASTS of the earth. 23 For thou shalt be in LEAGUE with the stones of the field: and the BEASTS of the field shall be at peace with thee” Job 5:19-23.

“Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; 19 to DELIVER their soul from death, and to keep them ALIVE IN FAMINE. 20 Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield” Psalms 33:18-20.

“. . . The Lord knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever. 19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: AND IN THE DAYS OF FAMINE THEY SHALL BE SATISFIED . . . 23 The STEPS OF A GOOD MAN ARE ORDERED BY THE LORD: AND HE DELIGHTETH IN HIS WAY. 24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand” Psalms 37:18-19, 23-24.

“The VOICE of him that crieth in the WILDERNESS, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, MAKE STRAIGHT IN THE DESERT A HIGHWAY for our God. 4 EVERY VALLEY shall be EXALTED, and EVERY MOUNTAIN and HILL shall be MADE LOW: and the CROOKED shall be MADE STRAIGHT, and the ROUGH PLACES PLAIN: 5 and the GLORY of the Lord shall be REVEALED, and ALL FLESH shall see it together: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it” Isaiah 40:3-5.
