GOD WILL OVERTURN 1
26 TAKE off your jeweled crown,” the Lord God says. “The old order changes. Now the poor are exalted and the rich brought very low.
27 I WILL OVERTURN, OVERTURN, OVERTURN THE KINGDOM, so that even the new order that emerges will not succeed UNTIL THE MAN APPEARS WHO HAS A RIGHT TO IT. AND I WILL GIVE IT ALL TO HIM."
Ezekiel 21:26-27 (the Living Bible)
27 I WILL OVERTURN, OVERTURN, OVERTURN IT! This also shall be no more, UNTIL HE COME WHOSE RIGHT IT IS; AND I WILL GIVE IT TO HIM."
Ezekiel 21:26,27 (DARBY)
• God will keep changing things until It gets to you who It actually belongs.
- What He had in plan for you as an individual believer might look evasive, but God will keep changing things until It gets to you Who It belongs.
- Albeit, If whatever God intended for you would actually get to you, you would have to patiently wait on Him. Allow Him to take the lead of your life.
- There is order in God's Kingdom, and timing in whatever to do for every individual believer. You have gotten to be on the queue before it can be your turn. Those who cannot join the queue, who are not patient to wait on God for the right time, or agree with God's pattern and timing, it would not be their turn.
- Those who look for shortcuts, who wants to cut corners, would not get their turn. God will keep changing things, taking you through different circumstances, challenges, before It would finally be the right time for you to take the place He had prepared for you.
- If you joined the queue, wait patiently on God, it would soon be your turn—your time of manifestation would come (Luke 1:80).
- There is haste in the world. If you wanted to walk with God, you had to be patient—God is not in a hurry. You do not rush to God when you have a need or problem, you walk with God consistently before it could be your turn for lifting or promotion. He does things progressively and systematically!
- When you are due for whatever blessing you are craving, you would not be denied. Your time will come and you would not miss it in Jesus' name.
• Why it is never some people's turn
I. Inability to give all to God.
A PART or portion of some believers' life is surrendered to Him, and not all. They still want to hold on to certain aspects of their lives—they want to control those areas they have not yielded to God. They would not want God to interfere with such areas of their lives.
II. Lacking in communion or genuine intimacy with God.
SOMEONE who is lacking in communion or intimacy with God would not claim to be waiting on God for his or her turn. SUCH a believer is on his or her own, doing their own will, and living according to the dictates of their flesh. It might never be such a person's turn, because he or she is not walking according to God's plan or Will for their lives.
THE plan or Will of God for one's life is known through communion or intimacy with God.
III. Lack of prayers.
PRAYER is a sign of trust, being dependent on God. The believer who prays nearly on everything, is an expectant believer, who's trust and hope are on God.
SO, If prayer is lacking, It means the person is not waiting on God and such should not expect that It would be his or her turn—because he or she is not expecting anything in the first place.
IV. Lacking in patience.
PATIENCE and endurance are placed together, they work hand in hand or pari passu, at an equal rate or pace. THEY work together and you cannot have one without the other—they work equably. Thus, whoever would walk with God would have these qualities or attributes—patience and endurance. LACKING in them would prompt you to go ahead of God and muddle up His plans for your life. Thus, when God's order is disrupted or muddled up, It would be a mirage to claim to be waiting for His arrival or fulfilment of supposed whatever.
V. Lack of total obedience. This could also make it never be a believer's turn. OBEDIENCE to God's instructions or commands would speed up or accelerate the Fulfilment of whatever He intended to do in someone's life.
IN addition to it, godly counsel or wisdom gleaned from the materials of proven and seasoned ministers of God. ESTHER did follow the instructions given her by those who could be considered her mentor and instructor. The instructions given her by Mordecai, her cousin (Esther 2:20), and the ones given her by the king's Chamberlain (Esther 2:15), were followed through.
DO not try to get things done by yourself without considering some good counsel offered by some people whom God has strategically surrounded you with—those whom you are divinely connected with or planted around your life. If you are due for a lifting, you definitely would not be denied!
• You will not fail in Jesus' name.
- Should there be any sickness in your body, I declare your healing and total freedom from It in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
- The hold is completely broken and It will never come up again in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
Peace!

STEPS TO SALVATION
• Take notice of this:
IF you are yet to take the step of salvation, that is, yet to be born-again, do it now, tomorrow might be too late (2 Corinthians 6:1,2; Hebrews 3:7,8,15).
a. Acknowledge that you are a sinner and confess your Sins (1 John 1:9); And ask Jesus Christ to come into your life (Revelation 3:20).
b. Confess that you believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord, and that you confess it with your mouth, Thus, you accept Him As your Lord and Saviour (Romans 10:9,10).
c. Ask that He will write your name in the Book of Life (Philippians 4:3; Revelation 3:8).
- If you took the steps As highlighted above, It means you are saved—born-again. Join a Word based church in your area and Town or city, and be part of whatever they are doing there. Peace!
