Laying Claim To The Promises Of God

If Daniel didn’t get up and declare that the prophecy on freedom should come to pass, the captivity would have continued to perpetuity. Same as Moses – Israel was meant to be in captivity in Egypt for 400 years, stayed for 430 years until Moses took action.

Joel 2:28-30 was manifested by the apostles from Acts 2 starting with when the apostles *actively* waited on the Holy Spirit that Jesus had promised.

Your captivity will continue until you get fed up.

How are we expecting to be divine partners with God when our heart postures and pursuits are the same as everyone else’s. We HAVE to be, and act differently – counterliving, non-conforming. It is pointless to _just_ live (get born, grow, grow old and die). Not with all the prophecies that are hanging on us, waiting for be fulfilled.

Refuse to live a life that has no significance.

John 1:12 – those who believe are given the power to be children of God, born of the blood and the will of God. That’s a big differentiator right there. And the significance of this has to be manifested in our lives.

We’re heirs of His Kingdom – the reason the devil (an angel) hates you is because God elevated humans (a lower being than the angels) to be heirs of His kingdom – and this is a big, big deal.

Normally, humans are very weak and defenceless but God keeps and protects us because we have a significance… which we have to achieve.

Do not settle for anything less than what He created us for.

You were not created for anything less than changing the world.

In summary

– Don’t conform.
– The posture in your heart should be to disrupt the order.
– Demand divine encounters – relentlessly pursue to see God’s manifestation in your day.
– There’s a great move of God on earth and we are the ones to perpetrate it.
– Do not defer fulfillment of God’s purpose to another time or another generation. It has to be fulfilled in your day.
– There are several _ordinary_ men and women who decided to change the world. What extraordinary thing are you actively pursuing?

So, what must be fulfilled in your day? What are you living for? Get tired of the ordinary and normal. Change the world.
