My Notes

The Journey Elijah was a Man of God and God did wonders through his life. He called for the famine for 3 years. He stood against 850 prophets and took them down single handedly. Elijah was focused on bringing back Israel back to God. But life events caused for him to sidetrack. Verse: 1 Kings 19:9 9 “There he came to a cave, where he spent the night. But the Lord said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”” This side track was caused by the voice of threat. Jezebel threatened to take his life. But God’s voice came in time for a course correction.  Elijah’s journey took him through Journey of Despair. Journey to God Journey to Victory Journey of Despair There are Godly voices and un-godly voices. And the voices never stop. We live in the world of information. But the voice we pay attention to, is the one that determines our destiny. Sadly Elijah gave his attention t the Jezebel’s voice.  Verse: Proverbs 14:12 12 “There is a path before each person that seems right, but it e...

The Day of the Lord There are several references to the Day of the Lord. And it has different consequences for different people. So some it will be a day of judgement… and to others it will be the day of redemption.  Verse: Zechariah 14:1 1 “Watch, for the day of the Lord is coming when your possessions will be plundered right in front of you!” The Day of the Lord will be a revelation of who the Lord is…. He is the Lamb and the Lion at the same time. There is fearful gentleness associated with God. So it is important to make peace with God. Verse: Psalm 2:12 12 “Submit to God’s royal son, or he will become angry, and you will be destroyed in the midst of all your activities— for his anger flares up in an instant. But what joy for all who take refuge in him!” The Day of the Lord - End of the Day of Man What does they Day of the Lord mean? If there is a day associated to a person, it means that it is special for that concerned person. So the Day of the Lord is the end of the Day of M...

 Prisoners on Hope Zechariah was written in the time of Bablylonian Captivity. The people were afraid to come back to Jerusalem. And in the midst of despair, the chapter 9 of Zechariah talks of the first coming of Jesus.... the coming hope. Zechariah is urging people to have hope and drawing a picture of being shackled to Hope.... as prisoners of hope.   Verse: Zechariah 9:9-12 9 Rejoice, O people of Zion![d] Shout in triumph, O people of Jerusalem! Look, your king is coming to you. He is righteous and victorious,[e] yet he is humble, riding on a donkey—riding on a donkey’s colt. 10 I will remove the battle chariots from Israel[f] and the warhorses from Jerusalem. I will destroy all the weapons used in battle, and your king will bring peace to the nations. His realm will stretch from sea to sea and from the Euphrates River[g] to the ends of the earth.[h] 11 Because of the covenant I made with you, sealed with blood, I will free your prisoners from death in a waterless dun...

"God was planning to move and I happen to be there" CS Spurgeon The central question that Ezekiel 37 pivtos on us: "Son of Man can these bones live?" What did the prophet answer? He did not say, of course by faith it is possible The prophet's answer was not presumptuous, but: "O Lord God, You know" What was he saying "Lord, if you declare they will live, they will live. If you say they will not live, they will not live" You are sovereign over all! God revealed these Three dimensions of Revival Revival is God's work Revival happens in God...
