In 1908 at the age of 17, Aimee Semple Mcpherson married a Scottish evangelist named Robert Semple. She followed him to China where they began to serve as missionaries. Sadly, Robert died soon after their arrival in China, leaving Aimee pregnant and penniless. After the birth of her child, Aimee’s mother had to send her money to travel back to the U.S. With all that had happened to her, Aimee became disillusioned and for months afterwards her spiritual life declined.
Later, Aimee remarried and tried to forget her divine call. However, in 1913; at 23 years old, she became ill and was rushed to the hospital with appendicitis. While at the hospital, her condition continued to deteriorate until a hospital attendant came to move her into a room set apart for the dying. At her point of death, when she could barely breathe, Aimee heard a nurse say, “She’s going.” At that moment Aimee heard another voice, a Heavenly voice saying :”Now will you go?” She understood it to be God asking her to choose between going into eternity or going into ministry. At that point she yielded to fully serve God in the ministry. As soon as she made the choice, instantly, her pain was gone, her breathing eased, and she soon regained her strength.
Aimee arose from the death bed to begin again her ministry. Within a decade, her ministry became globally known.
She founded the Foursquare Gospel Church and is celebrated today as one of the most significant revivalists of the early twentieth century.
Though Aimee had walked away from her ministry and was at the point of death yet when she repented God revived her to manifest greater glory in ministry. God is so faithful that whenever we repent and return to Him we experience.Haggai 2:9 which says “the glory of the latter house shall be greater than of the former.”
This is why we should never write off ourselves.
No matter how far we stray, God is still able to revive us and use us mightily in His Kingdom. While it may be tempting to ignore our call and live like the world, as believers our life only has meaning and significance when it is centered around kingdom service. Therefore it’s important that we diligently pursue our divine call.
A servant of God is not necessarily someone in full time ministry but someone in full time obedience to God and His Word.
When you genuinely love God, you want to spend and be spent for God. And you can’t give yourself wholly and not experience God fully. Indeed you can’t be truly sold out to God and not stand out on the earth
The truth is that sometimes the reason why things are not working could be because we are not working for God. Your experience in life is not about your circumstances, it is basically about your covenant positioning.
Kingdom service attracts the Blessings of God; it is when we serve God that He blesses our bread and water and takes away sicknesses from us. (Ex. 23:25)
To experience the invasion of God’s glory, we must decide to pay the required price of spiritual responsibility.
This year, service to God must be our distinguishing identity because that will be the pathway to experience invreasing levels of glory in our lives.
PRAYER
Father, I come before You today to receive the grace to serve You with greater fervency.. Please help me to do what is spiritually required of me in order to experience Your glory invasion throughout this year in Jesus’ Name
