FAITH CAPSULE: God is still in position to be extending hand of deliverance from destruction.

Genesis 19

At the time of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah because of wickedness, two angels came to the land. Lot saw the angels and decided to host the angels overnight. As a result of hosting the angels, he struggled with the wicked ones of the land that wanted to know the angels carnally. Wicked of Sodom and Gomorrah persisted to break into Lot’s house as Lot resisted the wicked. The angels decided to pull Lot into the house from the hands of the wicked ones. The bible recorded scene between Lot, the wicked ones and the two angels, “And they said, “Stand back!” Then they said, “This one came in to stay here, and he keeps acting as a judge; now we will deal worse with you than with them.” So they pressed hard against the man Lot, and came near to break down the door.  But the men reached out their hands and pulled Lot into the house with them, and shut the door. And they struck the men who were at the doorway of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they became weary trying to find the door.” (Genesis 19:9-11) This year, pray that the hand of God will be in position to be pulling you into safety from every land that is marked for destruction. God is still in position to be extending hand of deliverance from destruction.
As Lot was pulled to safety from destruction by the angels, he was also delivered by the angels from lingering so as not to become a victim of destruction. Genesis 19:15-16 stated, “When the morning dawned, the angels urged Lot to hurry, saying, “Arise, take your wife and your two daughters who are here, lest you be consumed in the punishment of the city.”  And while he lingered, the men took hold of his hand, his wife’s hand, and the hands of his two daughters, the Lord being merciful to him, and they brought him out and set him outside the city.
Ask God for His mercy to be pulling you and to be bringing you out where lingering is set to hold man down for inevitable destruction. This year, plead for God’s consistent mercy to deliver you from every of your inconsistency before God. God is a living God; a merciful God and the hand of God is not too short to deliver. Ask for the same hand that delivered the children of Israel from the bondage of over four hundred years in Egypt. The agents of wickedness against the life of Lot became blinded. Blindness is what will make wicked agency become weary and unable to locate you. God’s hand answered for Lot and He will answer on your behalf. Devote to your desire and God will deposit your desire.

Prayer for today: Ask God for the hand of God to have His upon you as your director in this wicked world.
