DIVINE CHAMPION II - 18/02/2014

DIVINE CHAMPION II - 18/02/2014

Yesterday’s message was titled “DIVINE CHAMPION II”. Today’s message continues the series and is titled“DIVINE CHAMPION III” as given by Pastor E. A. Adeboye in Open Heavens Devotional (Adeboye, 2014). In today’s message, we have been asked to memorise Psalm 51:61  “Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom" 
” and read Daniel 2:20-21. The Bible in one year reading for today has been taken from Isaiah 52:1-56:8 and Psalm 40:11-17

Quoted below is today's message for our usual discussion

"The divine champion is one that is made wise by God I (Daniel 2:20-21). Wisdom can be defined as having the fear of God. As a matter of fact, the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. Also, it is the correct application of knowledge. This knowledge itself must be the right and pure knowledge. In this context therefore, wisdom is the substance by which a solution is proffered to problems and unpleasant situations or experiences of men, individuals, institutions, organisations and nations. Wisdom makes way for progress and success. Daniel as a divine champion largely gained stardom by presenting solutions to the puzzles of kings. These came by God revealing to him the meaning of mysterious dreams and the strange handwriting on the wall during the reign of one of these kings. As you become a divine champion, God would graciously reveal to you the cause of people's problems so that you may help them out in Jesus‘ Name. As a professional in your area of specialisation, the Lord will show you secrets of outstanding breakthroughs for new products, ideas and principles for alleviating people's sufferings, hardships and sorrows in Jesus‘ Name. As a leader, ajudge, magistrate, king, community head, governor or president, the God that gave Solomon wisdom and deep insights will honour you with the same for right adjudication and administration in your domain in Jesus‘ Name.

Remember however that the divine champion is God's representative; hence the special abilities he has are meant to bless men and honour God. It is in this light that God backed Samuel and Elijah up (1 Samuel 3:19, 2 Kings 1:9- 12). The divine champion is also one that is loved and sustained by God, as was the case with Elijah. Supernaturally, Elijah was provided with food at the Brook Cherith and was fed by God through a widow at Zarephath during a period of famine in the land (1 Kings 17:3-9). God sees to it that the divine champion '5 needs are met, whatever it takes. Get occupied with God and His business, please Him like Elijah and your needs will become His needs and you can be sure that you would not have to struggle like others do to make ends meet. Even blessings you do not crave for would come around you. "

We have been asked to pray as follows: "Father, make me a solution provider in my generation."

I pray that God will give us the wisdom that will cause us our light to shine as solution provides in Jesus Name, Amen. God bless you richly  for your contribution to this forum, amen.

  1. " the special abilities he has are meant to bless men and honour God. " The release of the special abilities of a Champion are founded on profound love of and for humanity. They are also to serve God's praise and Glory ALONE! Many potential champions have dimed their calling and voided their marks by not noting these solemn truths.

    1. There exists a sharp diametric contrast between the "stars" of the world and the "stars" (divine champions) of the Lord. Whereas the worldly crave for and bask in the praise and honour from men, the divine remains in obscurity, promptly giving all honour to the Giver of all gifts, avoiding any share in His rightful credit. Consider John the baptist and the mindset of the Lord himself:

      John 3:30 He must increase, but I must decrease.


      John 5:44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?

  3. To remain a Devine champion forever, one must work in wisdom. The fear of God is the only generator for this kind of wisdom.
    Saul lost his divine championship to sin. Samson lost it to sin. Demas lost it to sin. 2 Tim. 4:10
    To sustain Devine championship you need to stay connected to God.
