Proverbs 4:18 ‘But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.’

DAILY READING; John 20:19-31; 2 Chronicles 32; Psalm 88

There is a velocity that can be given to an object so that when it goes up, it goes so fast that it escapes the pull of gravity on the earth. This is what is called escape velocity.
In science ‘escape velocity’ is the speed an object needs to break away or escape from the gravitational pull of the planet earth. Basically, it means going higher and higher until totally escaping the gravity on the earth.
It is through such great force that rockets are launched into space. If you see a rocket leaving the earth to go into space, you will notice it requires a very huge kick-start in order to leave the surface of the earth. For a spacecraft to leave the earth’s surface it requires a speed of 7 miles per second or about 25,000 miles per hour to leave the earth without ever falling back to the surface of the earth.
Because the force of gravity pulls everything downward therefore for any object to go up into space, it needs great speed and a huge amount of energy to escape this pull of gravity.

We can learn a spiritual lesson from this. It is God’s will for us to soar high and make continuous and appreciable advancement in every area of our lives. But there is a spirit of stagnation that exerts a satanic hold upon people and keeps them from going up in life. A man may start out making great strides in business or career, but at a point everything seems to become stagnant and his progress gradually comes to a standstill despite all the labour and efforts. This is a major cause of frustration in many lives and it is only by the exercise of great power that we can overcome.

Psalm 66:3 says “Through the greatness of thy power shall thy enemy submit themselves unto thee.”

To fly high, the power pulling us up, has to be greater than the force trying to push us down.
The greater the power at work in you, the faster you can move forward and escape the forces of stagnation.

Proverbs 4:18 says that the path of the just is as the shining light, that shines more and more unto the perfect day. “More and more” implies ever-increasing motion or advancement.

Since the entrance of God’s Word is what gives light, we therefore need to keep connecting to the light of the Word in order to keep making rapid progress.
Through study of the Word and an effectual prayer life, we will become truly unstoppable.

In Acts 6:4 the disciples declared “But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.” This was the secret of their overcoming the great Jewish oppositions against their ministry and experiencing constant eruptions of miracles, signs and wonders!

Likewise, as we commit to a lifestyle of diligent study of the Word, prayer and praise, surely, we will overcome every hinderance and soar to our glorious high places in life.

PRAYER: Lord, Please grant me a renewed desire for Your Word, prayers and praise, so that I can be empowered to enjoy speedy progress and divine acceleration and ascend to the great heights You have ordained for me in Jesus Name.
