GOD’S VISITATION

“…And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land…” EXODUS 3:8

“…whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace” LUKE 1:78-79

 

God on a mission means business. The visitation of God changes the position of a man or a people for good. God doesn’t just turn up for no reason, He always comes for a purpose, and always accomplishes the purpose by which He came for “For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it” ISAIAH 55:10-11. You wait on God for so long, and then one day He turns up. What a moment that will be! Like I said before, it is for a particular reason. He either visits the iniquity of people upon them and execute judgement, or return and leave behind a blessing (JOEL 2:14). Whatever the reason is, it will be accomplished, but for your sake, i pray that it may be for a blessing, and that the blessing may be accomplished.

Samuel the Prophet was sent on a mission by God to Bethlehem to a man named Jesse, to anoint one of his sons as the next king of Israel because He had rejected Saul. The elders of Bethlehem upon seeing Samuel trembled and asked him, comest thou in peace? (1 SAMUEL 16:4). Samuel being God’s Prophet was His spokesperson, and also had a delegated authority from The Most High to act on His behalf. The elders therefore seeing Samuel present was like having a visitation from God and they trembled. They knew it was either for blessing or something else and had no doubt that whatever the purpose of the visitation, it will be accomplished. To their relief, the visitation was that of peace, and God left behind a blessing in the form of one of their own, a young man called David, being sanctified and anointed as king of Israel. The visitation of God’s blessing upon men is described by Zechariah as the dayspring or as other versions put it, the sunrise. The sun rises daily from the east and sets at the west not without a reason. The energy of the sun is a blessing to our solar system, it gives life to our solar system. The sun is important to us the same way breath is vital for survival. God visiting His people in the land of Egypt was a breath of fresh air. Their yokes were broken, and years of arduous servitude was ended. Whatever your situation is, I urge you to hold on and pray to God without giving up because you are on His radar. His mission to you lingers not, and when He comes down, He shall accomplish and leave behind a blessing.

I pray that The Most High God answers you in time of your need, that He visits you and give you peace. It is my prayer that the dayspring from on high visits you and guide your feet in the way of peace. When He begins, may He make a full end. In The Name that is above all names, Jesus Christ, Son of The Living God. Amen and Amen!
