"Why Hunger?"
TOPIC: WHY HUNGER?
Memorize:
My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips: Psalm 63:5
Read: Proverbs 19:23-24
19:23 The fear of the Lord tendeth to life: and he that hath it shall abide satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil.
19:24 A slothful man hideth his hand in his bosom, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.
MESSAGE:
One of our benefits as the sheep of the Great Shepherd is the assurance of provision. If you are a sheep of Jesus, you will definitely be fed and hunger will be alien to you. Psalm 37:3 says,
“Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.”
If God has promised that we shall be fed, why then are some of us hungry and even starving today? Several factors are responsible for this, first of which is that some people erroneously mistaken poverty for righteousness and wealth or sinfulness. Some people have chosen to be poor so as to make Heaven. This is a fallacy! Do you know that so many poor people on earth, after suffering here, end up in Hell, whereas many believing Christians who were rich on earth continue to swim in eternal riches in Heaven? The choice is yours. Do not choose what will destroy but what will deliver you. Abraham was rich on earth, died and continued to live in God’s abundance in Heaven. What is your choice? If you are still holding onto such negative beliefs or stereotypes, then you need to have a change of mindset.
Also, some believers are hungry today because they have violated God’s financial principles. For instance, if you are not faithfully paying your tithe, you are inviting devourers to drive you into hunger. If you fail to pay your first fruits, you will be giving the enemy legal grounds to contest your job, open doors or breakthrough, and this could lead to hunger. Similarly, when you eat up the seeds you are meant to sow after every provision that comes to you, you will lose the harvest that could keep you from starving tomorrow. Some believers are in hunger as a result of reckless spending. They want to spend everything they have in one day. If you eat up a month’s provision in one week, you may have to spend the remaining weeks in hunger. In addition, some believers do not really trust God but in the quality of their certificate, wisdom, knowledge and skill. This attitude has resulted in God stepping aside from their affairs in order to make them realise how little they can achieve by their limited strength. Hence, such people have ended up in disappointment and lack. Beyond this, others are in hunger because of laziness, as they have refused to take up opportunities to gather wealth. Lack and poverty may also be as a result of satanic manipulation and control. Are you hungry? Is it caused by your actions or inactions? Arise and put things in order today and turn away from hunger and lack!
Key Point
The Child of a billionaire cannot be starving for what to eat. You are the child of the richest person in the universe. You should not lack any good thing.
BEFORE YOU SLEEP:
BE CAUTIOUS.
We live in a time when Predators parade around like prey, placing themselves in the path of the unsuspecting to be"caught" so they can run their games. The scenario usually plays out 1 of 3 Ways:
1. The "Unsuspecting" catches the predator thinking he/she has caught a prey and ends up becoming a huge prey.
2. The "Unsuspecting" flirts with danger but becomes wise to the Set-Up before its too late.
3. The "Unsuspecting" is not as unsuspecting as he/she was thought to be, had proper boundaries in place and was able to avoid the Predator's trap.
Be Careful as you relate with People. People are not always who you think they are. The wrong relationship you entered into unsuspectingly is a huge disaster and its devastation is REAL !
Hope this is clear?
Goodnight.
