Oxygen is a gas that we breathe on Earth, but high up in the atmosphere, oxygen takes on another form to become ozone, a natural sunscreen that protects the earth. When oxygen interacts with sunlight in the stratosphere, Ozone is created. The ozone layer acts as an invisible shield and protects us from harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun which can cause sunburns, cataracts, and skin cancer.
However in the 1970s and 80s, Scientists discovered that the ozone layer over the earth was being destroyed by human beings. This was due to the invention of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and similar chemicals used in aerosol sprays, foams, air conditioners, and refrigerators.
When these chemicals accumulate on high clouds in the stratosphere, they destroyed ozone molecules leading to a “hole” in the ozone layer over the South Pole. What it meant was that people living in this region were no longer protected from the harmful UV rays of the sun, leading to the surge of different kinds of diseases.
To stop this, scientists worked together with lawmakers across the globe to halt production of the destructive chemicals creating a hole in the ozone layer. This treaty was called the Montreal Protocol.
The implementation of this treaty has eventually led to reduction in the destruction of the Ozone layer. However scientists say that it will still take at least 100 years for the ozone layer to fully recover. They believe that by 2070, the ozone layer would be able to heal to what it looked like in the 1970s.

Just like the protective shield of the ozone layer around the earth, spiritually also, there is an invisible shield that protects believers on the earth. This is the shield of the precious Blood of Jesus.

In the book of Exodus, the Blood effectively protected the Israelites from the plagues of Egypt. Through the blood applied to the doorposts, while the plague raged in Egypt, God kept His people safe under the covering of the blood. [Exodus 12:13]

In the same way, today, the Blood of Jesus continues to protect us from every plague on the earth. As we daily plead the Blood, it acts as a shield around us and our household.

However, through spiritual carelessness, we could do things that can remove the divine covering of the Blood.

Ecclesiastes 10:8 says that whosoever breaks an hedge, a serpent shall bite him .
Any believer who steps outside the protective hedge of the Blood, will be bitten and afflicted by the enemy.
We therefore need to constantly ensure we do not break the hedge of protection around us through sin.
Especially in these end-times, you cannot afford to give any room to the devil to access your life.
To enjoy the divine covering of the Blood, we must be careful to live in purity and holiness and walk in obedience to God’s Word.
The Blood is our hope of protection in these evil last days. It shields us from the arrows of the wicked that fly by day and night. It protects us from sickness, spells, enchantments, and every manipulation of the wicked. Indeed the Blood of Christ is ever sufficient to cover and protect us from all harm, no matter what may be going on in the world.
Let us therefore continually ensure that we do not tamper with this seal of divine protection around our lives and around our families. It is risky and dangerous to do so at this time when the enemy is prowling about looking for whom to devour. By God’s grace we shall never fall victims.
As we commit to daily walking in line with God’s will, we will surely enjoy divine immunity and abide secure under the precious covering of the Blood of Jesus.

PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for the Blood of Jesus that constantly shields me from the evil in the world. Please grant me the grace to always walk in Your will so that I will never break this hedge of protection in Jesus Name.

Romans 8:19 ‘For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.’

DAILY READING; Matthew 4; Exodus 25-27; Proverbs 12

In 2019, a viral video surfaced on the internet that showed how a woman saved passengers from a plane crash by delaying the flight through her prayers.
According to online reports, the Cayman Airways flight KX620 from Grand Cayman to Kingston, Jamaica was delayed about an hour and 15 minutes by the woman who burst into prayers after boarding the plane.
Just minutes before take-off., this woman kept praying and screaming, “Jesus! Jesus!
She went up and down the aisle, declaring “Hallelujah” and speaking in tongues. In the background some other passengers also joined in her prayers.
When Flight attendants failed to get her to stop praying after several attempts, the woman was later forcefully removed from the aircraft.
All these happenings delayed the flight by almost 2 hours. When the pilot eventually proceeded on the journey and the plane took off into the air, the ground crew noticed smoke and electric sparks coming from one of the engines.
Immediately the captain was contacted and he had to turn back and return to the airport. The captain later admitted that had the woman not caused the delay with her prayers, they could have flown off with a faulty engine and possibly suffered a plane crash in mid-air. The captain said he believed the woman was God-sent to save them from a terrible disaster.

Indeed God works in mysterious ways.
While they were trying to get rid of this woman, they did not know she was an agent of deliverance sent to preserve that flight from destruction.
When Joseph’s brothers were trying to get rid of him, they did not know he had been sent by God to preserve their destinies.

As children of God we are sent into the world for the preservation of many destinies.

Jesus said, we are the salt of the earth. The two main functions of salt are preservation and adding taste. Indeed salt has been used for centuries to dry and preserve foods.
Being the salt of the earth means we are designed to preserve humanity from decadence and destruction.
When Paul was on a ship going to Rome, the entire passengers on the ship were preserved because of him.
Just as Paul’s presence in the ship attracted God’s divine hand that protected the other passengers, for our sakes, those connected to us will be preserved.
Interestingly, saltwater can generate electricity and thereby produce light. No wonder Jesus also said we are the light of the world.
Being the light of the world, means we are beacons that shine God’s light into the world to lead men out of darkness.
In the gross darkness of these end-times, there are cries of oppression as humanity groans in pain, looking for deliverance and emancipation from their predicaments.
Indeed the whole creation is groaning and travailing in pain together until now, waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God.
As believers in these end-times, we have been born for such a time as this. We have been sent into this generation by divine design to preserve lives.
Therefore we need to assume spiritual responsibility and pay the spiritual price of deeply seeking God so as to manifest His power for the rescue of mankind.
Through the greatness of God’s power manifesting through us, all God’s enemies will be subdued and men will be rescued from the oppressions of darkness.
This is God’s plan for the end-time Church. Let us therefore rightly position ourselves through diligent study of the Word, fervent prayers and passionate worship to be part of this glorious army who will be the salt of the earth and the light of the world.

PRAYER: Lord, please whatever You are doing in this season, may I never miss out on it. Please help me to be spiritually sensitive to Your every leading, so that I can take my place in Your great army in these last days in Jesus Name.

In 1912 an American medical missionary named Dr. William Leslie went to live and minister to the tribal people in a remote corner of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. After 17 years of his labour there seemed to be no tangible result. And so he returned back to the U.S, very discouraged, believing he had failed to make an impact for Christ in his mission. He died nine years after his return.
But in 2010, a team from Tom Cox World Ministries made a shocking and sensational discovery. They found a network of Churches hidden like glittering diamonds in the dense jungle area where Dr. Leslie had ministered almost a hundred years before.
When they got in there, they found a network of reproducing churches throughout the jungle scattered across 34 miles. Each village had its own gospel choir, they wrote their own songs and would have sing-offs from village to village. They even found a 1000-seat stone “cathedral” in one of the villages.
They were baffled about how these remote people could have received the Gospel, until they heard the story of a missionary who had first brought the Gospel to their village. On further investigation, the team discovered that it was Dr. William Leslie.
Dr. Leslie had travelled through the jungle, spreading the Gospel and started the first organized educational system in these villages. Though at the time, his labour had seemed to be fruitless, yet the good seeds he had sown had over the years germinated into these flourishing interior churches.
Because he didn’t see any immediate results, Dr. Leslie had left, feeling discouraged and believing that he had failed in his mission of 17 years. Yet, today, the legacy he left is huge and flourishing network of Churches that is greatly blessing the people in that region.

Many times, we miss out on God’s best because we became impatient with the process that birthed the promise.
And some of the times we feel the need to give up, may actually have been when we were closest to our victory.
In carrying out God’s assignment for our lives, various situations will attempt to knock us down. But we must refuse to stay down and keep rising and moving in the direction of our call.
As you stay faithful, you will indeed be fruitful. Your persistence will soon wear down every resistance.
Don’t become discouraged because you did not see victory or progress today. Be persistent in your zeal and efforts to obey God’s Will. No matter the opposition, maintain your position.
The truth is that you are never a failure until you quit.
Often times we may be confronted with situations that make it look as if our labor has all been in vain.
However, as a believer, you have to have faith in God’s promise that says you shall not build, and another inhabit; you shall not plant, and another eat: God says you shall long enjoy the work of your hands and you shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; [Isaiah 65:22-23]
When you are in right relationship and position with God, you can always trust the fulfillment of His Word.
Do not let the enemy, your own thoughts, or anyone else tell you anything different. Refuse to be wearied in well doing because in due season you shall surely reap, as you stay connected to God through faith.
To see the manifestation of the fruit of our labours, we must believe that whatever we go through, it is all working together for our good. In every situation, we must continually bless the Lord and keep His praise always on our lips.
As we draw close to the end of this year, some people may feel tempted to become weary because they have not yet seen the kind of results they had hoped for. But then never forget that we serve the God of 11th hour miracles.
God is going to surprise you. You may have been digging since the beginning of this year, but suddenly God will cause you to strike gold. God will exceed your expectations and amaze you with His wonders. You’ll see amazing favor, health and increase as God causes His blessings to flow towards you. But the secret is never to give up. Keep trusting God in all situations. Surely, if you don’t quit, you will eventually win.

PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for the grace and strength to keep pressing forward in every situation. As I refuse to give up, surely, by Your grace I shall soon see a manifestation of my own portion of the wonder agenda in Jesus Name.

“I Love to Tell the Story” is a well-known hymn which was written as a poem by an English evangelist, Katherine Hankey.
Hankey wrote this hymn during a serious spell of sickness while on a mission in Africa.
Reading through her hymn one would never suspect the great battles she fought over her health. But despite the numerous challenges she faced, she decided to continually give God worthy praise. She refused to focus on the problems but rather focused on God’s promises of healing and deliverance.
Katherine Hankey was born in 1834, the daughter of a wealthy English banker. Early in life Katherine caught the evangelical passion from her father and she began organizing Sunday School classes for rich and poor throughout London.
When Katherine was only thirty years of age, she experienced a serious illness. During the long period of recovery from the sickness she wrote a lengthy poem on the life of Christ.
Later that same year, while still recovering from her sickbed, she completed the second part of her poem on the life of Christ. From these verses came the text for “I Love to Tell the Story,”
Being musically inclined, Kathrin also composed her own tunes for these two texts. Her hymns became a blessing to many people.
She sought to glorify God and bring joy to others in any way she could. She ensured that all of the royalties received from these hymns were directed to a foreign mission projects to preach the Gospel and help the poor.

It is interesting that Katherine Hankey wrote a song of such beauty and blessing at a time of suffering.
Katherine Hankey, had every reason to have focused on her health challenges and remained depressed. However, she chose to give God praise instead, and today the world is blessed with a beautiful hymn as a result.
Often times, we may have a good reason to feel down and discouraged, but we have to make a decision not to follow our feelings. Depression will only give room to the oppression of the enemy.
The ‘sacrifice of praise’ is praising God even when our circumstances dictate the contrary.

Hebrews 13:15 says ‘By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name’

We don’t just praise God when it feels good, looks good, or benefits us in some way. We offer praise, “continually.”
As I Thessalonians 5:18 says “In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”

The truth is that in life’s journey sometimes you may have to pass through some valleys before you can get to your mountaintop. A valley is defined as a depression. When you come to those places of depression in your journey, despite the circumstances you have to continue giving God praise because praise is what activates God’s favor and causes things to turn around for you. And though you may sometimes walk through the valley of the shadow of death, never forget that ahead, God has prepared a table for you, and your cup is about to run over. But you have to stay in praise in other to see the harvest God has promised you.
Don’t give in to negative emotions and allow them to keep you from God’s blessings and promotion. Fix your eyes on Jesus and not on the negativity. Choose to live each day in God’s peace, by spending time in His Word until joy is imparted into your heart. Then maintain an atmosphere of joy around you by continually giving God thanks. As you do so, you will see amazing signs and wonders begin to take place in your life because God is fearful in praises.

PRAYER; Lord, I thank You for indeed You are the God of wonders. Please help me to maintain a praise-full lifestyle, no matter what comes my way. I know that indeed You are too faithful to ever fail me in Jesus Name,

During Idi Amins reign of terror in Uganda, one of the people that were visited by Amin’s secret police was an Anglican pastor named Reverend George Lukwiya. Amidst Idi Amin’s plot to destroy Christians in Uganda, this pastor refused to bow to his tyranny.
One day, Amin’s secret police picked him up, saying that he had made an attempt to assassinate the President.
It was a ridiculous charge. There was no basis to it, yet they took him to their headquarters where they began beating him, demanding for a confession. Though the Pastor had nothing to confess, they tortured him and threw him into a room with 60 other prisoners. For three months the Pastor languished in this horror chamber. Every day, one of the men in the room would either die or be murdered.
They were barley given water or food and would starve for days. Reverend George Lukwiya, in his distress continued to cry out to God for deliverance. Eventually, Idi Amin’s government was toppled and he and his army fled the country.
Reverend George was one of the few survivors who emerged alive from Idi Amin’s torture chamber. After many months of suffering, he was finally released and returned back home where he continued serving God.

We may never be faced with such extreme life threatening choices, but as believers in these last days we need to be prepared to stand for our faith no matter the pressures.
No matter what comes your way, through Christ, you can always overcome.
As a Christian, your decision to serve God will attract attacks from the forces of hell, the enemy will often bring fiery trials and temptations as a way of discouraging you or making you give up. But in every situation, always be sure that God is able to fight for you and deliver you.

Psalm 34:19-20 says ‘Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken..’

In every temptation, God will surely make a way of escape for you.
When Peter was locked up in prison to be killed the following day, guarded by soldiers there seemed to be no way of escape. Yet, despite the tight security, an angel came right into the prison and brought him out.

Indeed there’s no situation too tight for God to bring you out from. God can break open prison doors and break you out of any captivity. God can close the mouth of lions, move mountains and cause walls of Jericho to fall for your sake.
Therefore anytime you are faced with impossible battles, never give in to fear, just keep your eyes on the Lord. Fill your heart with faith through study of God’s Word and keep praising God in the face of the raging storm.
As you continue to stand in faith, God will arise and cause your enemies to scatter. They will come through one way but flee seven ways before you.

If perhaps today, you are passing through a ‘trial of fire’, God has promised in Isaiah 43, that when we go through the fire He will be with us. When God is with you, the fire isn’t going to consume you; rather it’s going to refine you and make you better.
Indeed though we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, we shall fear no evil, when God is with us.
Certainly, as we committedly serve God in this season, He will fight our battles and deliver us from every evil plot and gang-up of the wicked in Jesus Name.

PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for always being my ever present help in every time of need. No matter what I may face in life, I know indeed that You will always give me the victory in Jesus Name.

Bruce Olson was one of the most daring missionaries that ever lived.
He was born into a wealthy family, however, after he got born again, his parents became concerned about his Christian zeal and passion. In 1959, when he was nineteen years old, Bruce Olson felt God calling him to bring the Gospel to a stone-age tribe in the jungles of South America.
When he told his wealthy parents his intention to obey the call, they were furious and accused him and the Church he attended of being brainless “holy rollers.”
His parents were angered because Bruce was already a . linguist genius, fluent in Hebrew, Greek, Latin, Sanskrit, and other languages. Their original plan was for him to become a language professor in an American University. Going to the jungle of South America was absurd.
However, Bruce remained determined to obey God.
With little money, he left his home in Minnesota to travel into the interior of South American jungles.
Bruce had no missionary training, no financial support, no knowledge of the languages he needed, and when he arrived in Caracas, no one met him. Missionaries who earlier promised help had changed their minds. They disapproved of his lack of denominational credentials. He was abandoned and penniless, yet God’s Presence surrounded him as he began his evangelistic work among the primitive tribes.
Through God’s help this nineteen year old boy became the first missionary to visit the savage Motolone Indian tribe and survive. He succeeded where older missionaries did not. Bruce Olson went on to become one of the greatest missionaries in modern history.

The truth is that when God is with you no matter how disadvantaged you may be, you will surely succeed against all odds.

Sometimes when God gives us an assignment, it may appear as if we are the least qualified for the task
When God told Moses to go and deliver the people of Israel, Moses felt inadequate especially because of his stutter. When God told Jeremiah that he was going to be a prophet to the nations, Jeremiah told God, ‘ I can’t do it. I’m too young.’
Like Jeremiah and Moses, we may worry about our limitations, but the Faithful One that called us is able to do His will through us. What is more important is for us to be rightly positioned spiritually for the flow of God’s Spirit.

In a very real sense none of us is ever qualified to do God’s work..
Success in ministry is not about our ability, it’s about our availability. When we are willing to follow God and obey His call, God will work through us to accomplish His divine agenda.
It is not about our strength, it is about the grace of God that works in us.
You may not have enough money, enough education, or human support, but what matters to God is that you have the right heart.
When you have a heart that desires to please God, and you make yourself available, He will work in and through you to accomplish His wonders on the earth.
It is God who works in us both to will and to do of His good pleasure.

When we give God the throne of our heart, He will secure for us a throne on the earth. When we are lost in His will, He will be lost in our welfare.
Therefore today, no matter the overwhelming odds, keep your focus on God’s divine power and ability.
As we keep blessing the Lord at all times and remain obedient to His Word, surely, He will bypass every limitations to work amazing wonders through us in this season..

PRAYER: Lord, please help me to stop worrying about my limitations.. Help me to see indeed that through Christ I can do all things in Jesus Name. .

From the book ‘With Signs Following’ by Stanley H. Frodsham, comes the remarkable story of a believer in Chile, named Arturo Espinoza who miraculously survived a deadly attack of tuberculosis. This man was in the last stages of the disease and doctors had told him he could not live more than five days. Instead of going to lie down in bed and wait to die, Arturo decided to use his last strength to keep serving God. He immediately went to an open-air meeting and preached revival on the street corner.
Later that night, he went to his Church, knelt at the altar and told the Lord he was not going to give up till God healed him. While he was on his knees, another brother in the church that night had a vision and saw an angel with a basin in one hand, a surgical instrument in the other who approached Arturo as he knelt at the altar, opened up his back, took out the diseased lung and put in two new lungs.
When Arturo arose from his knees at the altar he realized that he was completely healed.
He later went back to his doctor who had previously examined him. The doctor was astonished to examine him and find that the lungs were perfectly well, with no trace of tuberculosis. Ten other doctors who also examined Arturo pronounced him absolutely well.
Months later, now in perfect health, Arturo was used by the Lord to start a Church in Chile where he continued to serve God with renewed zeal and strength.

When we focus on serving God, He removes sicknesses from us and ensures we fulfill the number of our days. [Exodus 23:25-26]
In Luke 10:17-19, after the disciples returned from their preaching assignment, they told Jesus that the devils were subject unto them through His Name
This shows that serving God and winning souls puts us in dominion over the enemy and over every demonic affliction.

When we work to bring glory to God and advance His kingdom, God will likewise put His glory on us and advance our lives.
What we sow is what we reap. The Bible says that there is joy in Heaven over one sinner that repents, therefore as we cause rejoicing in Heaven through winning souls, God also ensures that we reap a harvest of joy on the earth.
He removes every source of sorrow and tears and ensures we are surrounded with joy and rejoicing.

Kingdom service attracts God’s blessings and His blessings make rich and adds no sorrow.
Indeed serving God is the master key to a life of sweat-less triumph.
Our love for God and our service in His Kingdom, is key to all that we need in life.

Job 36:11 says ‘If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.’

God’s wonders and miraculous provisions are reserved for those who love and serve Him.
As the year draws to a close, perhaps there are things that may seem to be threatening your joy and peace of mind.
Why not roll over those cares to the Lord and focus rather on seeking Him first, so that He can take care of everything else.
It doesn’t matter what the medical reports or financial statement may say, as you sow seeds of service into God’s kingdom, you will harvest Abundance of His blessings.
Certainly, as we hunger to see revival in the lives of men, God will surely bring revival to every area of our lives. He will cause every dry bone or dead organs to come alive and give us victory on every side.

PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for the grace to serve tirelessly in Your kingdom, for I know that You are indeed a rewarder of them that diligently seek You. I indeed praise You today for victory in every area of my life in Jesus Name.

Cyber attacks have been on the increase as hackers use malicious software to scramble and steal organizations’ computer data.
On May 7, 2021, Colonial Pipeline, an American oil pipeline, suffered a ransomware cyberattack from a Russia-based criminal group called the ‘DarkSide’. The company had to pay $4.4 million to unlock its IT systems after the cyber attack forced it to shut down a critical fuel pipeline.
Although the Justice Department was able to trace and recover much of Colonial Pipeline’s ransom payment, that is not usually the norm.
Today many companies are forced to pay great ransom to Cyber criminals to stop them from shutting down their operations.
Cyber attacks, which was previously seen as a nuisance is fast becoming a national security problem as cybercriminals target key parts of a country’s infrastructure.
Therefore to make devastating cyberattacks less likely, governments and businesses have to find ways to secure their systems from outside intruders. A key security measure is ensuring their cybersecurity staff receive more training and education, to keep them up to date on the latest threats and defense strategies, in other to hold off major cyberattacks.

Just as it takes superior knowledge to halt cyber attacks, it takes in-depth knowledge of God’s Word to overcome spiritual attacks. To outsmart the enemy, you need to increase in your level of knowledge and revelation.
The enemy only takes advantage of people’s ignorance to oppress them. But when you know the truth you shall be set free.
Knowledge is our ticket to victory. It guarantees our dominion over the forces of wickedness. It is the master key which unlocks every door to triumph.
Ignorance is what makes people to become cheap victims
Redemption has re-positioned us for eternal victory over every afflictions of the enemy but it takes spiritual understanding for us to appropriate the full benefits of our redemptive package.

In 1989, the U.S. launched a surprise invasion into Panama to dethrone General Manuel Noriega. About 24,000 American troops fought in the invasion, called “Operation Just Cause.”
In the score of battles that were fought, some soldiers lost their lives. One of them was Roy Dennis Brown Jr.
Shortly before he was killed, Roy had written a letter to his mum, which said ″If you’re reading this letter, then you already know that something has happened to me. Tell everyone in the family and all my friends that I love them all and that my death was for a good cause,″ Brown wrote. ″Get over my death and continue for success in your life.″
Though he didn’t post this letter and kept it in his belongings, his prediction came to pass.
Roy Brown was killed on December 20 1989. During the invasion, in the confusion of the early-morning gunfire, which was erupting from all sides, Roy Dennis Brown Jr. was shot by “friendly fire”. He was killed mistakenly by his own troops, the U.S. Army .
His letter, found by an officer who gathered Brown’s belongings from his locker, was hand-delivered to his family a few days later.

Thoughts and expectations are powerful. What a man believes is what he receives. As a man thinks in his heart so is he.
It is important that we guard our minds with all diligence and be carefully over the kind of thoughts and utterances we allow.
Our expectations should always be according to the Word of God.
No matter how bad, desperate or hopeless any situation, do not conclude when God had not yet concluded.
There is no situation God cannot turn around. No matter how hopeless any condition, God can still give you a change of story. But it all starts within your mind. The key to experiencing a change of story is by renewing our minds through God’s Word. Indeed when our heart is filled with the Word, we will begin to see new possibilities and have the faith to believe for greater things.

The end we expect is what we are given.

This is why we should never give in to self-defeating thoughts.
God’s capacity to do far exceeds our capacity of asking. Whatever we can believe, we can receive from Him. And whatever we can conceive, we can achieve by His grace.
Anything and everything is possible through our faith in God’s divine abilities.
As we remain expectant in this year of wonders, surely, as far as our eyes can see, shall be given unto us.

PRAYER:
Lord please help me to stretch the limits of my faith. I know indeed You can do exceedingly abundantly above all I could ever ask or imagine. Please help me to keep thinking in line with Your Word so that I can experience Your wonders in Jesus Name.

Proverbs 28:20 ‘A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.’

DAILY READING; Hebrews 10:19-39; Exodus 11:1-12:51; Proverbs 4

Robert William “R.W.” Schambach was a bold, powerful, revival preacher. For fifty years he conducted evangelistic crusades that touched many lives around the world.
However the power and anointing upon his ministry came through serving under a well-known powerful evangelist named A.A. Allen.
In the 1950’s, Schambach was already pastoring a church when he became intrigued by the outstanding miracles he saw in the crusades held by evangelist A.A Allen.
As he regularly attended these crusades, he became acquainted with A.A Allen, who invited him to become a part of his ministry team.
Schambach chose to submit to A.A. Allen and so left everything else and began to faithfully serve under his ministry. He apprenticed with A. A. Allen for five years, traveling throughout the U S, helping with the crusades, preaching in some services, and doing the advance work.
Finally, Schambach felt God calling him to begin his own ministry. With Allen’s blessings he left and later founded 4 tent churches in large cities and began his popular radio program, ‘The Voice of Power’.
Schambach’s later ministry was far greater than his earlier ministry. His preaching was filled with power and mighty signs and wonders. He was eventually used by God to preach all over the world and his television program greatly impacted people in over 200 nations.

When Schambach was faithful in serving under A.A Allen, God gave him a better and greater ministry.
Indeed when God can trust us to be faithful in the ordinary, He will take us to the extraordinary.
Our faithfulness in the little things will determine our fruitfulness in great things.

Proverbs 28:20 says ‘A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.’

Sometimes, people want to make haste and rush to get to the topmost positions in life. While the race to be a leader is crowded, the few who emerge as winners are those who have proven to be faithful servants.
Being faithful in the ordinary is a vital part of every true leader’s character curriculum.
In the world today, many are on a career path, but few are on a character path. Many want the stars but not the scars.
As believers, there is a process God often passes us through before we can see His promises manifest.
David was anointed to be the king as a young man, yet God sent him back to serve in the shepherds fields. He had a king’s anointing, yet he was taking care of sheep.
If David had not passed the test of being faithful in the routine, he would never have gotten to the throne.
We have to be spiritually sensitive to know where God has placed us per time. Once you know you are where God has ordained for you, though it may seem ordinary, continue to serve faithfully and give your best.
As you remain faithful in the little where God has put you now, it is only a matter of time before you will be entrusted with much.
We can become frustrated because we know we have more in us, but we’re not seeing it happen. But if you are in a place of obscurity, always keep it in mind that God is preparing you for something greater.
In the hidden place, you’re being prepared for where God is taking you. Your character is being developed. Your spiritual muscles are getting stronger. And when you are through with your preparation it will be time for your manifestation.
Indeed as we continue to serve faithfully where we are, in due time, God’s rewards will ultimately locate us.

PRAYER: Lord, please help me to be faithful in serving You where I am right now. As I seek You first in everything, surely in due season, I shall be elevated to the great and glorious place You have ordained for me in Jesus Name.
