The seven spirits of God: STRENGTH || Job 22:21-29
It’s very important to understand your purpose and assignment in such a time as this. Our purpose and assignment (as a ministry) in this time is to strengthen the body of Christ and to let people know that the devil won’t win and he is on the run, that’s why we are creating both the presence of God and alters in our homes. Purpose is for a life time, the day you were born, and the bible clearly says, “God knew you before you were born” [Jeremiah 1:5].
Assignment is a mission. God will never give you a mission until you’re prepared. The purpose of God in the life of Job, Job was a holy man that is purpose; he was upright, feared God and shunned evil and because of that, this man was rich [Job 1:2].
Most religious people think that when you serve God, you become a begger but am here to tell you that I am a believer. The scripture says, “and these signs shall follow those that believe” [Mark 16:17]; when you are a believer, signs shall follow you.
Indicators will follow you. Signs are indicators; “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” Healing of the land is an indicator that God’s people are turning away from their wicked ways, they are praying.
There are signs that follow your condition; the bible tells us about Job, the man was holy, which is the first thing it talks about. Job 1:1 reads, “There was a man in the land of Uz,” he wasn’t the only man in Uz but he was the only one of his kind. “…whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.” Verse 2, “And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters.”
Now they are telling you the benefits of his character/ nature, the benefit of what he had become in God. Beloved, time has come for people to know of who you’re in God and why you are prosperous, intelligent, clever, and rich, why your children are successful, why you’re blessed, strong and why you have the glory of God. “His substance also was seven thousand sheep”, number seven was already in his life, and if not seven, three. “…and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east” [Job 1:3]. People are gonna look to you and wonder what kind of man you are, because we cannot associate with the Creator and we end up being void.
One of the things that is gonna bless you is to know purpose; “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth but the earth was without form, and void” [Genesis 1:1-2]; nothing associates with God or God associates can remain void. The devil may knock you down but once you are connected and associated with the Creator, when He speaks it happens and comes to pass.
You can’t associate with this God Almighty and you stay empty headed, handed and pocketed, you cannot! The earth had to come back to its fulness because where God is; in His presence there’s fulness of joy [Psalms 16:11]. Get ready child of God, we are not associated with religion, mankind or demons but we are associated with Jehovah Almighty, the maker of heaven and earth, the One who raises the dead, the One who has the power and the life, the One who is a miracle worker and something good is about to happen to you.
It’s time for you to associate with God, and that’s what Job 22:21 says, “Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.” Acquaint means come closer to Him even though He is not your friend as He was to Abraham; make Him your friend, get closer to Him and be at peace that good will come to you.
Speak it into your house; good is coming to me and that is the purpose for your life. Verse 23 says, “If thou return to the Almighty:” 2 Chronicles 7:14 states, “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn…;” Many of us return to religious but it’s time to return to God. Verse 23 continues, “…thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles.” God is building you, He will use the seven spirits to build you up; you will be powerful, wise, strong, honorable, glorious and blessed. God is breaking this and putting in this because He is building you.
Verse 26 says, “For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God.” Some of you have not been appeasing to God because you were not associated to Him; get this, you cannot be with God, associate with Him and remain the same. I declare, people are about to look at you and glorify God. Today I read about Job and I glorify God.
Verse 28 reads, “Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.” Child of God, in your purpose, you’re allowed to taste; you will taste of His goodness, wonders and joy. And the moment you taste, you cannot let go. Remember, you began as an acquaintance with God (coming to church once in a while, reading the bible in a while), you are now so divine that you’re using His power and strength to make things to happen. Verse 29 says, “When [men] are cast down, then thou shalt say, [There is] lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.” Today, you’re receiving one of the seven spirits of God called STRENGTH. There is lifting in your life in the name of Jesus; you shall not go down but God shall save you.
As Job was the greatest among the men of the East, so shall you be the greatest among men in your family. May God shade His love on you, and I ask you to give Him a chance to work in you such that His purposes may be revealed in your life. What are His purposes for you? Let God work His purposes in you; you are the clay; He gets you out of the clay and turns you into a vessel.
Friends allow me to end here and I believe this message about purpose has blessed you. Don’t miss our E-Miracle Overnight every Friday starting at 9PM [EAT].
