GOD'S DECISION CANNOT BE NULLIFIED BY THE DEVIL 1

“For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.”
2 Corinthians 1:20 (NKJV)

• If God says Yes, the devil or his demons cannot say No.

  • If the devil is having a field day in someone's life or affairs, the person may have not gotten to know God's mandate for his or her life.
  • Some ascribe power to the devil as if he is a creator. The devil is a creature, a created being, not a creator; he does not know all things, and he is not all powerful.
  • If someone is not fulfilling, the person should check or consider these:

(I) God's PURPOSE
If you do not understand God's purpose for your life as a believer, the devil may use every means to frustrate you.

  • If you are not doing what God has purposed you to do on earth, the devil would make things difficult for you.
  • If someone is in another person's assignment or field, such may not experience fulfilment.
  • Get to know God's purpose for your life. God's purpose is discovered by seeking God's face for it.

“Then I set my face toward the Lord God to make request by prayer and supplications, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes.”
Daniel 9:3 (NKJV)

  • For you to ask and receive direction from God, you must have a working relationship with Him. Your relationship with God will lead to fellowship, communion, with Him.
  • You establish a relationship with God by being born again, and build communion, fellowship, with Him through conversational prayers and meditation in the Word of God (Romans 10:9,10; Joshua 1:8).
  • If you walk in close fellowship with God, you will know His purpose for your life.
  • God paints pictures of what He wants to do in our Lives or what he has for us, in our hearts.
  • As you pray and converse with God, watch your thoughts, the pictures you have in your mind are the things He wants you to do.
    What your spirit receives from the Holy Spirit on the inside of you, would be placed on your mind.
  • Note: As you know God's purpose, you need to get to know the exact plan, which is called vision.
    Someone may be called into ministry work, which is God's purpose, however, such need to know what he or she is called to do exactly.

(II) COVENANT Relationship

  • Build your relationship with God to reach a covenant level; that is, you grow in your walk with God to the point of Him established a covenant with you.
  • Some only walk with God, relate with Him, with their mouth and they relate with Him because of what they want from Him. Your relationship with God should go beyond what you want to receive from Him (Ezekiel 33:31).
  • For a relationship to be deep, the parties involved must contribute to it.
  • Your relationship with God must cost you something, you must be ready to sacrifice things on your own part: you do not come only to receive all the time, without anything to give, or contribute to grow or build the relationship.
  • If you are willing to sacrifice things that are precious to you for God, He will establish a covenant with you.
  1. “But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ.
  2. Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ.”
    Philippians 3:7,8 (NKJV)
  • God MAY demand things which are precious to you in order to cut a covenant with you (Genesis 22:1-18).

(III) SEED-FAITH Principle

  • Law of sowing and reaping is one of the cardinal laws on earth.

“While the earth remains, SEEDTIME and HARVEST, cold and heat, winter and summer, and day and night shall not cease.”
Genesis 8:22 (NKJV)

  • Everything on earth revolves around this law—sowing and reaping. We live to give when we stop giving we start dying.
  • Everything we do is a seed that will germinate and bring forth fruits for harvest. In this law, harvest is always more than the seed sown—what you sow.
  • You must be seed conscious in your relationship with God.
    To receive what God has for you, you must release what you have in your hands, for God to release what He has in His hands for you.
  • If you have a solitary maize in your hand, for it to multiply, you have to sow it in the soil, and allow it to germinate and bring forth fruit for harvest.
    Remember, what you keep with you will ever be the highest, however, if you sow it, it becomes the least and you have a great harvest in return.

• MEDITATE on these scriptures:

“Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man SOWS, that he will also REAP."
Galatians 6:7 (NKJV)

“But this I say: He who SOWS SPARINGLY will also REAP SPARINGLY, and he who SOWS BOUNTIFULLY will also REAP BOUNTIFULLY.”
2 Corinthians 9:6 (NKJV)

“There is one who SCATTERS yet INCREASES more; And there is one who withholds more than is right, But it leads to poverty.”
Proverbs 11:24 (NKJV)

• You will not fail in Jesus' name.
Peace!
