“The Good Will Of The God Of The Burning Bush”

Deuteronomy 33:1 (KJV)
And for the precious things of the earth and fulness thereof,
and for THE GOOD WiLL OF HiM THAT DWELT iN THE BUSH:
let the blessing come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the
top of the head of him that was separated from his brethren.

Have you ever heard folks talk about “good will”? In business, it denotes a good relationship between a business owner and his clients. Good will also exist between nations. Good will is an attitude of kindness, friendliness and benevolence.

Many folks have risen in life, business, on the job and other areas, because of the good will of people that came into their lives. Oh, how we need this influence! It is a force that folks should earnestly desire to have function in their life.

God is the God of GOOD WiLL. He is GOOD WiLL expressed. He is Kind, Friendly, and Benevolent. Did you know that one meaning of GRACE is God’s Willingness to use His Power on our behalf? Willingness is GOOD WiLL in manifestation.

I may have power or ability to help. I may even have influence to change a course; but may not be willing to use it for somebody. When somebody exercises his will to help us in a matter, then he is showing us grace or favour. This is what “good will’ is all about.

Let’s read our text from other Translations so we can get the depth of this prophetic pronouncements that Moses was making over Joseph.

Deuteronomy 33:16 (NiV)
with the best gifts of the earth and its fullness and the
FAVOR OF HiM WHO DWELT iN THE BURNiNG BUSH.
Let all these rest on the head of Joseph, on the brow of the prince among his brothers.

Deuteronomy 33:16 (BBE)
The good things of the earth and all its wealth, the
GOOD PLEASURE OF HiM WHO WAS SEEN iN THE BURNiNG TREE:
may they come on the head of Joseph, on the head of him who was prince among his brothers.

Deuteronomy 33:16 (MSG)
The best of Earth's exuberant gifts, THE SMiLE OF THE BURNiNG-BUSH DWELLER.
All this on the head of Joseph, on the brow of the consecrated one among his brothers.
Deuteronomy 33:16 (BBE)

You will notice from the Versions I quoted that The Good Will also means
- FAVOUR;
- GOOD PLEASURE; and,
- SMiLE.

I pray that somebody reading this will catch the revelation that the Lord is bringing forth today on. There is a Blessing in Christ called “The Good Will of The God of the Burning Bush”. It was by this Blessing that Moses became who and what he was.

We get excited when we read about Joseph; how he eventually rose to prominence in Egypt (a strange land). He was such a mighty force that ALL Egypt was literally ruled by his will! He determined the economy, politics, and wealth of the land, and even beyond Egypt.

How could a “slave boy”, and a “prisoner” rise to that height in a foreign land? Hope you know that this was a guy that was conspired against by his brothers, was declared missing by them, lies were told on his head, he had precious gifts stolen from him, just name it, and Joseph had it all.

How would you feel to see folks you “helped to rise” later “forget” you? Do you know how it feels to see those you “sacrificed” for treat you as though you are a low profile? At a time in his life, it appeared as though the vision he had would never become.

Do you know what it means to be thrown into a dungeon and sharing stuffs with condemned criminals, being punished for a crime you never committed? Joseph was being “tried by the Word of the Lord”, but after all these ugly times, “his Word came”, and the “King sent for him”.

Folks, I speak to you now in the Spirit of Prophecy, no matter what is coming against you, no matter the storms, the lies, betrayal by friends, rejection by family and loved ones, and the harshness of the economy, there is an answer for you. There is a way out. A breakthrough is around the corner. All you need to have an “undeniable testimony” in life is “The Good Will of The God of The Burning Bush!”

Joseph slept one night a “prisoner”, but the next morning, he became a “prime minister” in the land of his shame, yea, in the very “presence of his enemies”. How could that have happened? Well, the answer is “The Good Will of The God of The Burning Bush” Hallelujah!

Folks, as I share with you, the Sweet Presence of the Lord is all around me! RECEiVE GRACE to LAUGH, in Jesus Name! Yea, ‘The Good Will of The God of The Burning Bush”.

- A LiFT is coming for you!

- I see your DELAYED PROMOTiON being ANNOUCED!

- You are RECEiViNG a GOOD REPORT from your doctors!

- If you are in a foreign land, hear the Spirit of Prophecy speak to you: YOUR LONG AWAiTED PAPERS and DOCUMENTS are out! You will not be DEPORTED!

Moses was “blessing” “Joseph” by the encounter he had with God at the Burning Bush. Mind you, Moses was on his “death bed” as it were, and he was pouring out himself by prophetic blessings upon the tribes of Israel. When he got to the tribe of Joseph, he then began to reflect on the very first encounter he had with the Lord which took place at the “Burning Bush”

Once, he was a refugee, an outlaw, declared wanted by Pharaoh. His life was falling apart, he just killed somebody in an attempt to do the “Will of God” And he had started a new life at this time, just to forget yesterday with its failures.

He’s eighty now; the best and vital part of his life has been lived, but no relevant achievement. So, he might as well resign to fate and wait for the undertaker. He gave up on life and himself, but “The God of The Burning Bush” did not give up on him!

One day while he was minding his own business, and hustling for survival, this Awesome God showed in a “Burning Bush”, smiled on him, and the rest is history.

Now here is Moses, blessing the tribe of Joseph under the influence of “The God of The Burning Bush”. He said to Joseph, “ what LiFTED me UP from being a NON ENTiTY, and gave me INFLUNCE in Egypt, and what made my life significant, the SAME will REST UPON YOUR HEAD!...God, my God, Who SMiLED on me at the Burning Bush, the SAME will SMiLE on you, and by His FAVOR, you will RiSE…”

Friends, I come to you today with that same blessing. All we need to be anything in life and destiny is “The Good Will of The God of The Burning Bush” And in Christ, we have access to this blessing. IT’S A NEW DAY FOR YOU!

 I BLESS YOU TODAY:

-  Your LAND shall YiELD her iNCREASE!

- The BEST that the EARTH shall PRODUCE this YEAR, 2013, shall be your PORTiON!

- WHATEVER GOOD THiNGS the SUN, MOON, and the STARS have, shall be OFFERED you

- The RiVERS, STREAMS, and SEAS will GiVE to you ABUNDANTLY!

- You will be SUSTAiNED by the BLESSiNG of the BREASTS and the WOMB!

- ARROWS of HATRED SHOT at you will not PREVAiL!

Congratulations!

“Nothing Will Stop Me!”

Philemon 1:10 (KJV)
I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, WHOM I HAVE BEGOTTEN iN MY BONDS

I find this particular Scripture interesting and very revealing also. I see light in these precious words of the great servant of God, Paul, the apostle.  In another version, he says,” My request is for my child Onesimus, THE CHiLD OF MY CHAiNS,” (BBE).

Paul said that Onesimus was the “child of his chains”. In other words, “I gave birth to you (spiritually speaking), while I was in PRiSON…” The New King James Version says,” I appeal to you for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten WHiLE IN MY CHAiNS,”


It’s clear from these different translations that Paul was not in a good condition when Onesimus was converted. Onesimus was not born again in a crusade or revival meeting that Paul was ministering in as a guest speaker. Paul was not in a crusade; he was in prison!

There were times in his life when Paul had “great” moments preaching, when the sailing was smooth; no boisterous winds or the likes. Everything was just cool and nice. But this time around, the situation was not sweet. He was locked up, bound in chains, and surrounded by soldiers.

It wasn’t a sweet moment for Paul. At face value, one would think that nothing much would happen. How in the world could Paul have “given birth” to Onesimus, when the condition was not perfect?

Did you know that very many times, when we read about some Bible characters and the great works they did, we erroneously conclude that they had it all smooth and easy.

                                                                                                                                  
No, they didn't just have an easy time all through. They had challenges just as we do. There were rough times; trials, tests, and temptations. Paul even said that there were moments in which they gave up on life! They lost hope.

2 Corinthians 1:8 (KJV)
For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of OUR TROUBLE which came to us in Asia, THAT WE WERE PRESSED out of measure, above strength, iNSOMUCH THAT WE DESPAiRED EVEN OF LiFE:

Wait a minute! I thought Paul was a great man of faith? Did you notice he said, “Our trouble”? How come a “faith preacher” is talking about having”trouble”? He said there was pressure on them; they were “weighed down” exceedingly; and they came to a point where they gave up and thought the end had finally come.

I've taken a little extra time to explain some of these things so you can know that these Bible folks were human as we are, and they had situations too that were ugly, yet they won! The odds were against them, but in spite of it all, they succeeded.

Paul was in chains, bound in a prison, yet Onesimus was “born”. The negative flow of things could not STOP Paul. He went ahead, advanced, despite oppositions. NOTHiNG could STOP Paul, he was fruitful. If Paul could not be stopped, NOTHiNG WiLL STOP YOU this season.

You will be FRUiTFUL ; you will be PRODUCTiVE, you will ARRiVE, and you will GET THERE, NO MATTER what Hell is doing around you. Your FRUiTFULNESS isn't limited to when the weather is “clear”. The external flow of things should not stop you from “giving birth”.

Paul was in chains, yet Onesimus was born. The Oil of God upon your life is too FERTiLE to be BARREN! You will fulfill that ministry. That business will see the light of the day. We can’t stop these “troubles” from coming; but one thing is prophetically sure: the HARDER they COME, the HARDER they FALL! We will advance, because we are UNSTOPABLE!

Make up your mind that these pressures will not STOP your FRUiTFULNESS. The harsh economic condition will not STOP you from building that house. You are a “covenant child”. The “Word of Promise” is backing you. Your prophecies are too alive to be killed by the agents of darkness!

Let Pharaoh deal “wisely” with us by holding dark meetings to destroy us. Let him set “task masters” over us to “afflict” us with burdens, but anyhow, anyhow, we will “increase, we will multiply, and we will possess”. Hallelujah!

Genesis 1:28 (KJV)
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, BE FRUiTFUL, AND MULTiPLY, and replenish the earth…

You have been blessed from the beginning. The enemy has come too late. A pronouncement of good will has been made over your life. Your FRUiTFULNESS is sure and non negotiable.  These unwholesome situations cannot STOP you.

You don’t need to wait till everything calms down. Your greatest breakthrough is right inside this ugly condition you are in now. Did you know that a major part of Paul’s epistles were written in prison? Your external circumstance may not be smooth, but NOTHiNG CAN NEGATiVELY AFFECT THE WORD OF GOD.

Don’t mystify your troubles. The Lord is only training you through it all. Your BEST is about to COME FORTH by this OPPOSiTiON. In the language of Bishop Erasmus Nosa Oleghe, I dare say to you that you are being “energized by oppositions”. Your greatest testimony is coming. Get ready for the NEXT LEVEL of FRUiTFULNESS.

I believe that the Lord is speaking to you through this message today. Take a look at that “chain” in your life once more and say to it, “Chains, you may be on me; your assignment is to STOP me and HiNDER me from FRUiTFULNESS. But I REFUSE to let you be. Your PURPOSE and iNTENTiONS against me are PERMANENTLY DAMAGED! I will PUSH THROUGH. Nothing, and absolutely NOTHiNG CAN STOP ME!”

Friends, rise up from that low position you are in, and see the potentials in you waiting to manifest! The Lord is still with you. What He did when the “south wind blew softly”; He can still do now that a “tempestuous wind” is blowing!

Now DECLARE THESE IN THE SPiRiT OF FAiTH:

- From the TOP of my HEAD to the SOLES of my FEET, I DECLARE with my MOUTH, that my LiFE is SUPERABUNDANTLY FRUiTFUL!

- My PROPHECiES are CATCHiNG UP with me, and my NCREASE is iNCREASiNG!

- That which is POTENTiAL in me will NOT DiE UNREALiZED, in Jesus Name!

- There is FRESH OiL upon my HEAD; I am SWiFT as the EAGLES and STRONG as the LiON!

- The UNCTiON upon me is causing me to be FRUiFUL in ALL AREAS of LiFE!

- In Jesus Name, I AM A BOUGH, even A FRUiTFUL BOUGH  by a SPRiNG! 

“…With The Help of The Lord…”

Genesis 4:1 (KJV)
And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and
bare Cain, and said, I HAVE GOTTEN A MAN FROM THE LORD.

In another Translation, the Bible says,” And the man knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man WiTH [THE HELP OF] JEHOVAH. (ASV)

Our God is a God of Mercies and Compassion. Even when we fail and are undeserving of His HELP, He has a way of coming through for us. I sense in my spirit that there is somebody reading this now that is about to see the Lord move for them in an amazing way.

 You are not presently expecting God to HELP you in this situation, because somehow you caused it, but the Lord impresses in my spirit to tell you that HELP from the Lord is coming your way! A divine surprise is about to hit you! God is always a HELPER and He will help you in this circumstance.

A blessing is coming, and it will totally turn your life right side up. I see you weeping for JOY! This HELP from the Lord will be TOO MUCH for you! Be EXPECTANT. Your expectation will provoke the move of God in your direction this season.

From our text, we can see Eve testifying to God’s goodness. She was experiencing God in an awesome way. The Lord was showing her Mercy and Love. Her life was encountering Divine Assistance. A pleasant surprise was on in her life!

Adam and Eve were having their first “childbearing” experience. This “birth” was so smooth and easy. Satan probably had been whispering lies to them, especially to Eve that she won’t make it in this pregnancy.

You will recall that before now, they missed it. Adam and Eve blew it! They sinned against the Lord, and a “curse” was pronounced on them. Satan went into action thinking to frustrate them and destroy God’s plan for their life.

The enemy waited for Eve the day she was to bring forth her first child; Satan’s plan was to cause weeping and tears; he probably wanted to make null and void the testimony of the Lord in their life. Satan wanted to get at God!

Eve had fears. They have failed God. “Will God be there for me in this child birth”, she probably thought.
 Maybe her feelings were negative; there were no “signs” that God would be there for them. She thought she would go through it alone; she was continually under condemnation.

Folks, don’t blame Eve. If you were in her shoes, you will have the same feelings. Even now, some of you are battling with thoughts of condemnation; you can see areas in your life where you’ve missed it. Again and again, you’ve failed God.

You are not even expecting anything to happen. You are in tears now. Confusion seems to overwhelm you. Can I make it? Will God show up for me? How can this happen seeing I know not a man? Am I sure that God will still HELP me?

Beloved, these are your thoughts. These are the things going on in your mind. The enemy is showing you defeat upon defeat. Your dreams lately have been scary. The doctor’s report on your case has not been encouraging. Yes, the odds are against you.

But I bring you the Word of the Lord today. The Lord says,”HELP IS ON YOUR WAY” The Lord is going to give you a pleasant surprise. You will make it against all odds. Satan will not write the last chapter of your life. Those who are waiting to see you fail will wait in vain! I see a BiG BREAKTHROUGH coming your way! Hallelujah.

Eve said, “With the HELP of the Lord”. Yes, she gave birth with the HELP of the Lord. The Lord was there for her in GRACE. She called the name of that child Cain. Did you know that Cain is not a bad name? We think the name, Cain, is “evil” because of the nature of the man that bore that name.

No, Cain is a good name. It was a name borne out of a supernatural encounter that the parents had. It was a name that came by inspiration. This name, Cain, is prophetic. It means acquired, possession, or that which is produced

Did you notice the way Eve spoke when Cain was born? She exclaimed saying, “I have GOTTEN a man FROM the Lord.” Take note of the words gotten. It means to procreate, beget, and bear.  Eve saw God HELPiNG her in this situation. It was not just herself alone. It was by the Hand of God upon her life.

Friends, HELP IS ON THE WAY for you! God, Who surprised Eve, will surprise you. There is never a time in which God will not HELP. There is a limit to what your hands can give you. Eve said, “I have acquired a man by the HELP of the Lord”. Connect with that same GRACE this season. Don’t cut off from the supply of GRACE that Heaven is releasing to us this season.

- The HELP of the Lord shall MANiFEST for you in that PROJECT!

- The UNCTiON to ACQUiRE comes UPON you NOW!

- PLEASANT SURPRiSES will be your testimonies this season!

- That BREAKTHROUGH you are EXPECTiNG will come!

- You will MAKE IT!

DON’T’ GiVE UP!

Genesis 1:1-3 (KJV)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth

And THE EARTH WAS WiTHOUT FORM, AND VOiD; AND DARKNESS WAS UPON THE
 FACE OF THE DEEP. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

AND GOD SAiD, Let there be light: and there was light.

Wait a minute!

It’s seems as though God had begun to fail right from the beginning! Did you read the Words of Scripture? It says, “And the earth was WiTHOUT FORM, AND VOiD; AND DARKNESS WAS UPON THE FACE OF THE DEEP.”

This seems to be a picture of defeat. But can God be defeated? If God can’t be defeated, how come the Earth He made had a problem? How come the Earth was “without form”? What about the void? When something is void, it means empty. Was this how God made the Earth?

I really do not feel that darkness is a good picture. There is something wrong somewhere; we need an explanation! Well, the Lord didn't make the Earth like this. What we see going on here is a satanic interruption of a beautiful environment.

Everything was in a perfect shape in the beginning. Genesis chapter one verse one reveals the original Earth as the Lord created it. This perfect condition continued for a long, long time; ages upon ages, till Satan rebelled against the Throne of Almighty God in Heaven, and he was expelled from that place of Glory!

It was not easy for him to accept this “quit notice”. He knew how it was when He was in Glory. In anger, he then began to disrupt the things that God created on Earth; this was the reason for the Earth becoming “without form and void”; this was the reason for the” darkness upon the face of the deep”

It’s amazing to know that even God faced a challenging situation right in the beginning. This was enough reason to make God GiVE UP! Even today, the Lord has enough reasons to GiVE UP on the world! The condition of the world presently is alarming; things are definitely not in shape at face value.  World events are discouraging; yet the Lord has not GiVEN UP on the world!

The Lord is carrying the weight of the world upon His Shoulders; even if the Lord wants to GiVE UP now on the world, we will give Him “credit”; He has done His best! But Jehovah has refused to GiVE UP! There is no reason strong enough for Him to do it. It is against His constitution to GiVE UP- He has a High an unequalled Victorious attitude, hallelujah!

                           QUiTTERS DON’T WiN and WiNNERS DON’T QUiT.

Did you know that it was easy for the Lord Jesus to GiVE UP on Peter? You know as well as I do that Peter severally demonstrated inconsistencies. What about Saul of Tarsus? The Lord never GiVES UP on people. He will not GiVE UP on you, so DON’T GiVE UP on you either, no matter what you see going on around you or you don’t like.

God Isn’t A Quitter. He never GiVES UP on folks, why should you? In spite of peoples’ frailties, He still believes in them. Your spouse may have some flaws or weakness, just make up your mind to still believe in them anyhow; DON’T QUiT that marriage, because the sweetness can still come back!

Genesis 1:3 (KJV)
AND GOD SAiD, Let there be light: and there was light.

You will recall that we said earlier that there was chaos at a time in God’s Earth. That was an Earth that was designed in beauty and order. Darkness was everywhere; the Lord had a big issue on hand, but instead of GiViNG UP, God “SPOKE UP”!

We can do likewise. We have this same ability to SPEAK UP. Yes we can CALL THOSE THiNGS THAT BE NOT as THOUGH THEY ARE! This is the way to victory in these challenging times. We should be SPEAKiNG UP.

The Word of God should continually be our CONFESSiON. When men are cast down and are about GiViNG UP, our talk should be, “ There is a LiFTiNG UP” Hallelujah.

Don’t GiVE UP on that situation; go BEYOND it and tell the Devil that he is a BiG, BiG LiAR! When God began to SPEAK UP, then a restoration started. Light came, and darkness and confusion departed. Now, say to yourself,” I will not GiVE UP; instead I will SPEAK UP…”

Make these DECLARATiONS over your Life and Destiny:

- This PRESENT UGL Y SiTUATiON will not DESTROY me, in Jesus Name!

- I do not have a COVENANT with DARKNESS; therefore, I shall WALK in the LiGHT!

- In the Name of the Lord Jesus, the FORCES of hell cannot PUT MY LIFE (you can put anything in here) on HOLD!

- I am a WiNNER, and not a LOSER! To LOSE is FOREiGN to my NATURE; therefore I REJECT every suggestion to LOSE, in Jesus Name!

 - My LiFE and DESTiNY will not END at this LEVEL

- I am GOiNG HiGHER, yes, I AM!

Epignosis: There Is A Due Season

There Is A Due Season

Galatians 6:9 (KJV)
And let us not be weary in well doing: FOR iN DUE SEASON we shall reap, if we faint not.

Galatians 6:9 (Bible in Basic English)
And let us not get tired of well-doing; FOR AT THE RiGHT TiME we will get in the grain, if we do not give way to weariness

If only we knew that there is an end, we will not allow the enemy stop us at the wrong “bus stops”. Yes, there are “wrong” bus stops on the highway of life and destiny, and many are stopping at these satanic bus stops.

When the Bible talks about an “end”, it’s saying to us in prophetic terms that where you are now is not the FiNAL PLACE; you are still on the journey. There is a PLACE WHERE your FULL GLORY will MANiFEST, and your TESTiMONY shall be HEARD.

What many folks have not realized is that the Lord is constantly thinking the end. In His dealings and activities with us, He always has the end in view. He is the Originator of this journey of destiny. He has the blueprint to your life.

Your life is like a book, there are chapters and pages. An ideal book has preface; introduction, acknowledgement, etc. God is the Author of the book of your life and destiny. He knows what He has written concerning us.

Should we find ourselves at certain times in our life where we see ourselves “fainting’’ or in dismay, let’s not conclude too quickly that “it’s all over”. No, no, no! It can’t be over till God blows the whistle! He is the real Umpire in the race of life.

That time of fainting is just a chapter to the book of your life; it’s not an indication that the book has ended. There are yet more glorious chapters ahead. Just keep at it, beat the odds and get to the end.

There is an immediate and an ultimate in destiny. The immediate is your present time; it is this time of pain, confusion, heart breaking circumstances etc. The immediate is the place where men are “mocking” you and are making all nasty statements about you.

Yes, this is the place of rejection and neglect; it’s the place where shame almost swallowed you. Very many times when we are in our “immediate moments”, many think we have missed God or have sinned terribly!

The “immediate moments” in this book of destiny can be painful. At such times if you are into ministry, you will believe you were never called or that you went “too soon” into ministry. The “immediate seasons” are seasons where you have too many questions without answers!

But this season is not forever; it’s just as it sounds, the “immediate”. It is about now; today. But it is not THE END. The ultimate is THE END. The “ultimate” is the destination. It is the PLACE of FULL MANiFESTATiON of GRACE and GLORY.

This is the place where men will say finally, “show me your God!” This is where Jehovah is taking you to. You will get there, in Jesus Precious Name
