Prophetic Word
When the children of Israel cried out to the LORD, the LORD raised up a deliverer for the children of Israel, who delivered them: Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother. (Judges 3:9)
Have you ever heard of a man named Othniel?
Most probably not.
He was Caleb's nephew. When the people of Israel went into the Promised Land, they were victorious through the courageous efforts of Joshua and Caleb. As this generation grew older, a new generation began to emerge. Israel again fell into sin by worshiping idols. The anger of the Lord burned against Israel and He allowed them once more to be enslaved by their enemies. However, the people again cried out to the Lord and God heard them.
Whenever God's people cry out to the Lord, He hears them when they are truly repentant. He responds by raising up those whom He has prepared for such a time as this. Every soldier looks forward to the day when he can use the training he has received. God had been preparing a nephew for such a time as this. He had the same Spirit as his uncle, Caleb.
The Spirit of the Lord came upon him, so that he became Israel's judge and went to war. The Lord gave Cushan-Rishathaim king of Aram into the hands of Othniel, who overpowered him. So the land had peace for forty years, until Othniel son of Kenaz died. (Judges 3: 10-11)
Don't see yourself as rejected, broken and good for nothing. It could be, God has been preparing you for a time when you will be called upon to deliver God's people or help them in some manner.
Today you may be a “no-name” but when the Spirit of the Lord comes upon you, you will become a totally different person. Pray earnestly that God's Spirit may rest upon you.
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me for He has anointed me to preach the Gospel to the poor; He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
Note: Tomorrow is Pastor Michael’s birthday.
Could you please fast and pray for him and his family so that the LORD would empower him to fulfil his call faithfully? This would be a great gift.
Confession
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me for He has anointed me to preach the Gospel to the poor; He has sent me to heal the broken hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
I am called to do great exploits, for the Spirit of glory rests upon me in Jesus' Name Amen.
