BLESSING
AND LOCATION
MEMORISE
He
raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;
Psalm 113:7
READ
Numbers 11:24-29
24 And Moses
went out, and told the people the words of the LORD, and gathered the seventy
men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tabernacle.
25 And the
LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that was upon
him, and gave it unto the seventy elders: and it came to pass, that, when the
spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease.
26 But there
remained two of the men in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the
name of the other Medad: and the spirit rested upon them; and they were of them
that were written, but went not out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied in
the camp.
27 And there
ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the
camp.
28 And Joshua
the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his young men, answered and said,
My lord Moses, forbid them.
29 And Moses
said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the LORD'S people
were prophets, and that the LORD would put his spirit upon them!
MESSAGE
Do you know that prayer gives specific directions
for your blessings to locate you? This it does in addition to compelling your
unwilling helpers and making things happen for you in situations of despair.
People lose their blessings when their desired packages do not meet them where
God expects them to be. This story was told of some women who had been trusting
God for the fruit of the womb. When God decided to answer them, an angel was
sent by God to bring them their babies. On arrival at the church, the angel
began to give each of them their babies. But on that day, a particular sister
who was one of them failed to show up in church. The angel looked for her
everywhere within the church but could not find her, so the angel returned with
her baby. The truth is: distance is not a limitation in the spiritual realm. It
is also not as if the angel could not search for her wherever she was on the
face of the earth. It is just that certain blessings are meant to locate you at
a particular place.
God has specific places where specific blessings
would be delivered to you. The day God chooses to mention the cases of some
people in order to put an end to a nagging problem, they would give reasons for
not attending a meeting like our monthly Holy Ghost service. In receiving your
blessing, you must be at the right place at the right time. In Acts 9:10-18,
because Saul prayed, his helper was given specific details regarding where to
deliver his help. His blessing was directed by prayer and so it could not but
locate him. Sometimes some blessings come with no names attached. This means
that anyone who can first key into it becomes its owner. However, when you
pray, even when there are blessings with no names attached, your name will be
attached to it and it will surely locate you. If you know how to pray, your
location may not be too important as your blessing will definitely locate you
where you are. Eldad and Medad must have been praying a lot for their blessing
to have reached them even outside the tabernacle (Numbers 11:24-29).

POINT
Prayer is a bridge that connects your
blessing to your location.
