DIVINE VISITATION

“Then the angel of the lord appeared to him, standing on the right side of the altar of incense. And when Zachariah saw him, he was troubled and fear fell upon him. But the angel said to him. Do not be afraid, Zachariah for your prayer is heard and your wife Elisabeth will bear you a son and you shall call him John. And you will have joy and gladness and many will rejoice at his birth” (Luke.1:11-14)

God is never late .There is a time and a season for the accomplishment of his divine plan and counsel for those he loves. There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the Heaven and in God’s own time, He makes all things beautiful.

Zachariah and Elisabeth were devoted, committed, blameless, righteous servants of the Lord, yet they were barren. Their situation was hopeless because the Bible says “they were well advanced in years”. They have long passed the age of childbearing by human standard. But a day came that God remembered Zachariah and Elisabeth and decided to pay them a visit. When God pays his children a visit, it is for the fulfilment of the long awaited promise and the performance of His special miracle on their behalf. When Joseph was about to die, he told the children of Israel in Egypt that God will surely visit them, and in the fullness of time, He visited them by first visiting Moses in the wilderness through the burning bush, the ultimate result of this was deliverance and divine fulfilment of his covenant for them to be established in what he promised their father Abraham.

To you in this season God is going to pay you a visit, spend time with you for social reasons. He will especially bring joy to your family by fulfilling his promises concerning your family as he did for Zachariah. God will also visit in a professional capacity to enhance your business career, ministry, academic, vocation e.t.c. His visitation is giving your life a complete change of direction and destiny.

God is working out a miracle for you in this season that will bring you gladness, and joy and many will rejoice at your breakthroughs; healing, promotion, deliverance, blessing in Jesus name.

All of God’s promises concerning you will be established even if you are still in doubt like Zachariah and Sarah. Sarah laughed and doubted God when she was told, she will bring forth the promised child) (Gen.18:12-13). Her unbelief did not stop God from accomplishing His purpose for Abraham. God’s mercy and favour prevailed over Sarah’s sin of unbelief. It is my prayer that whatsoever is the shortfall in your life that will not allow Him to bless you in your time of visitation, may his mercy prevail in Jesus name. The Lord’s favour took care of Sarah and Elisabeth’s disgrace among the people, so shall it be done to you in this season too. The long awaited miracle is to fulfil God’s divine purpose. This is your season of favour; God will definitely show you mercy. You will enjoy the fullness of the Holy Spirit power to accomplish for what He has longed planned for you. As you ask the question like Mary when she received the message from angel Gabriel at Christ’s birth “how shall it be?” the response from Heaven to you now is that the Holy Spirit will come upon you, the power of the Most High will overshadow you. You will give birth to a miracle that you, and all around, as well as nations will know it is of God. God will perfect the process of His miracle for you, will visit you, and make your life colourful and beautiful in this New Year.
