AS YOU CROSS OVER INTO YEAR 2010 - TRUTH TO LIVE BY AND TO PRACTICE

LESSONS FROM THE LIFE OF ZACHARIAS
LUKE 1: 5-25

1. USE SHAMGAR PRINICPLE TO DEAL WITH THE IMPOSSIBLE AND EVER REFUSE TO LET THE IMPOSSIBLE INTIMIDATE YOU.

REMEMBER SHAMGAR PRINCIPLE (LAW) - "DO WHAT YOU CAN WITH WHAT YOU HAVE WHERE YOU ARE." - JUDGES 3:31.

ALWAYS KEEP IN MIND - JER. 32:27 & MAL. 3:6 AND REMEMBER THE BALANCE MATT. 19:26 AND LUKE 19:26.


2. YOUR FAITH DOES NOT MOVE ANY MOUNTAIN - IT IS RATHER YOUR FAITH IN WHAT YOU SPEAK OR SAY THAT CAUSES THE VERY WORD OF GOD TO MOVE ANY MOUNTAIN.

THEREFORE, KEEP SPEAKING WORDS THAT ALIGN WITH HIS WILL - GOD IS PLANNING AND DOING SOMETHING BEYOND YOUR FAITH - JER. 29:11.


3. GOD DOES NOT NEED YOUR FAITH TO MOVE - HE IS ABSOLUTELY AND ALTOGETHER SOVEREIGN. YOU ONLY NEED TO ANCHOR YOUR FAITH IN HIS WORD (BELIEVE HIM AND BELIEVE HIS PROPHET) TO MOVE HIM TO ACTION.

HENCE, EVEN WHEN YOUR FAITH STOPS WORKING, GOD WILL USE THE ELEMENT CALLED 'TIME' AS LONG AS IN FAITH YOU ARE WAITING ON HIM. (HAB. 2:3)


4. STOP LOOKING BACK AND AROUND. LEARN TO FACE YOUR TOMORROW WITHOUT THE FEARS OF YESTERDAY - MATT. 6: 25-34.


5. MAN MUST COOPERATE WITH GOD BY OBEYING A DIVINE INSTRUCTION TO RECIEVE A MIRACLE. MAGIC ACTS WITHOUT MAN'S WILL OR COOPERATION BUT NOT MIRACLE.

REMEMBER GOD DID NOT BLESS THE LIKES OF ABRAHAM AND ZACHARIAS VIA THEIR REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS BUT BY HIS RESSURECTION POWER WHEN THEY OBEYED AND PERFORMED THE INSTRUCTION ON FRUITFULNESS GIVEN TO THEM.

6. NOTHING CAN STOP YOUR MIRACLE WHEN IT IS DUE. DUE MIRACLE IS SO POWERFUL SUCH THAT YOU MUST REAP YOUR HARVEST IN DUE TIME AND NOTHING CAN CHANGE IT.


7. WHEN ALL APPEAR TO BE TOO LATE - REMEMBER:

A) NEVER FORGET THAT THINGS CAN STILL CHANGE IN A DAY IF YOU DON'T GIVE UP.

B) YOUR DELAY HAS TO DO WITH DIVINE APPOINTMENT IF YOU ARE TRUELY HIS CHILD.

C) YOUR DELAY OFTEN IS THE PATH GOD IS USING TO TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE WHOLLY OR PARTIALLY.

HENCE, THERE IS AN APPOINTED TIME FOR YOU TO BE HEALED, DELIVERED, RECOVERED, GIVEN AN OPEN DOOR, GET A MASSIVE CATCH ON YOUR NET - AS LONG AS YOU SURRENDER IN BY FAITH IN HOPE.
