FAITH CAPSULE: It is too early to give up expectation of your manifestation.

Psalm 121

Engage a new day by lifting up your eyes to God not to an expectation that is yet to manifest. Be lifting up your eyes to God. God testified in His word, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.”(Jeremiah 29:11) Absolutely, our God that is of good thoughts is definitely a good God with no iota of evil towards His creation. God is God that remembers with favor and visit with salvation. “Then God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the animals that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided.” (Genesis 8:1) As a believer, be assured that you are already on a fertile land regardless of evil plantation in this wicked land of world.
Serving God is to remain focus continually in serving God regardless of any challenge. Serving God is not convenient but it is a commitment that demands no interruption but continuation.
Lifting up eyes to God is the evidence of serving God and to know waiting on God. The Psalmist testified in Psalm 121:1-2, “I will lift up my eyes to the hills from whence comes my help? My help comes from the LORD Who made heaven and earth.” The testimony of the Psalmist is a revelation that is worthy of meditating for expectation.
Are you looking up to God for help or are you looking up because others are looking up?
Psalm 34:5 buttressed, “They looked up unto Him and were radiant, and their faces were not ashamed.” In lifting up eyes to God at this time of the year is assurance that the emptiness of your hands shall not bring you to shame. It is too early to give up expectation of your manifestation but keep lifting up your eyes to God.
Why do you look away from above? There is only one God and He is the One that is above all. The Word of God encourages, “Look to Me, and be saved, all you ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other.” (Isaiah 45:22) Without doubt, looking up unto God is a thoughtful and mindful approach. Jacob, while on his way after moving from Laban, wrestled with an angel and he gave the testimony of his encounter in Genesis 32:30, “So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: “For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.” Jacob’s testimony is saying that when man looks up to God preservation over man’s life journey is undeniable.
Today, if you begin to live responsibly in response to the word of God you are yet to live your potential on the face of earth.

Prayer for today: Ask for the grace to live to the fulfillment of your destiny to the glory of God.
