TUE. 26 MAY 2026
THEME: THE RISING STARS.
📖 1 Corinthians 2:9-10
[9] But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
[10] But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
MESSAGE.
We are in the dispensation of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit Himself searches all things. We have too many people who are aspiring to be great in life and ministry. These men are doing everything possible so that they can carry revival power.
Before you were born, God knew you. He knows the assignment you are to fulfill on earth. He knows your capacity and your abilities. Just like a mango fruit never forces itself to be an orange, so also you must not force yourself to operate outside your divine assignment.
The Holy Spirit searches the heart, intentions, and sacrifice. He also takes note of your obedience to God's instructions and the men He puts above you. How humble are you? Can God and your leaders testify of your character, hunger, and sacrifice?
No matter how desperately an arrogant and proud man tries to walk in the anointing, he cannot be used by God. The anointing is for the humble in heart—men who are never in competition with anyone but are focused on their assignments.
Every star knows that the secret of rising to the top is obedience to God's instructions and men. Prayer and fasting are just part of it. So many people fast and pray to be used mightily by God, but they are disappointed. Your hunger is not enough for God to use you; He checks your intentions.
If you have a pure intention, God is committed to raising you up.
COUNSEL OF THE DAY
1 Every act of sacrifice brings you to the point of reference.
2 The content of your heart determines what you can contend for.
3 Men who are broken are lifted.
PRAYERS
O Lord, I receive the grace to be humble and sacrificial in all I do, in Jesus' name. Amen.
