THE TRUTH ABOUT DIVINE MANTLE

SCRIPTURE: And the Lord said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons. – 1 Samuel 16:1 
 
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Divine mandates are losable.
 
One of the established realities of life is that God’s people may fail but God’s purpose never fails. In our anchor Scripture, we see that the failure of Saul did not mean the failure of God’s agenda for Israel. God seemed to have said: “I have rejected Saul but I have an alternative plan” (Samuel 16:1 paraphrased). God raised David to fulfil His agenda for Israel. God may discard people but He never discards purpose.
 
So, when one person starts messing up with God’s plan, another person is warming up to fulfil the same plan.
 
It has been confirmed that God has a defined plan for everyone on earth (Jeremiah 1:5). Maybe God has a plan for you to be an apostolic voice, a prophetic voice, a teaching voice, a pastoral voice, a governmental political voice or a voice in the business and financial sector in your generation, etc. 
 
You must make up your mind to hold unto it because it is losable. Divine mandates are losable; Divine mantles are inheritable by others (Rev. 3:11), but that will not be your portion, in Jesus’ Name. But the truth is: no one has an exclusive ownership of Divine purpose. So, ARISE AND FULFIL DESTINY!
 
Remember this: Divine mandates are losable.
 
ASSIGNMENT (S):
1. Ask God for mercy, if you are still delaying in carrying out God’s instructions for your life.
2. Determine to urgently run with any vision God has given you.
3. Determine to overlook setbacks so you can make impact.
 
PRAYER: LORD, I receive the grace to run with every vision You have given me. Help me to fulfil my purpose on earth, O LORD, in Jesus’ Name.
