Look up! There is still a way.

We sometimes find ourselves stranded at a junction in life with no hope of breakthrough, it may even seem like every door is shut against us, we have tried so many options but all to no avail, we have sought for help from men but they all seem to be bothered about their own personal challenges, but the goodnews is that there is always a way out, if only you don't give up, all you have to do is to look up to God.

Thomas Edison tried hundreds of times to create an electric bulb but all to no avail, yet he never gave up. He never considered himself as a failure, he only saw the failed experiments as ways by which the process was not meant to work, he kept on pushing until there was a breakthrough.

A wise man said ''To experience breakthrough, you have to keep breaking till you are through''

 The story of the sick man in the scriptures that was so sick to the extent that he needed his friends to carry him from one spot to the other seeking for solution gave a better explanation.



Mark 2:2-4
And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive [them], no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them.

And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was:

And when they had broken [it] up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.(KJV)

When they got to the house where Jesus Christ was teaching, the friends began to look for ways into the room just to have an audience with Jesus. They begged and begged, even wanted to pay if possible to get inside but no one gave them listening ear. In fact at the point of begging, some of the people standing by the door might have fought with his friends because of their disturbance. They tried all they could to get inside but all to no avail, then they looked up and made an entrance through the roof.                                                           
                                                                      
Anytime you get stranded or there seems to be no way out for you, just look up to God in heaven, there you will always find a way.

When they got in, the Bible said Jesus saw their faith and after few conversations, Jesus healed him.  

Then the Holy Spirit asked me that when the man was healed and was going out of the house, where did he pass through, that is, the man came in on a stretcher through the roof, but did he go out through that same roof? I said No, he would have gone out through the door. The Holy Spirit said ‘’Was it not that same door that few minutes ago, people said there was no way? Was it not that same door that looked like Mission impossible few minutes ago?

 By the change of story God is granting you in this few remaining months of this year, every locked door against you shall be opened up for you in Jesus name. Whatever place you have struggled to enter, the God of heaven will grant you wisdom and favour,  and every mountain on your path shall be removed in Jesus name?

The second question the Holy Spirit asked me was, when the man gets to the door, would he have begged the people to give him space to go out like he did when he was coming in? I said No, he would not even need to talk, people would have naturally gave him space plus a standing and clapping ovation?

By authority of Heaven, everyone that stood against your progress, shall all gather to celebrate your testimonies in Jesus mighty name (Amen).

Thirdly, how would all those people at the back that looked down on him when he was about to be brought in, the people that were even fighting with his friends, how would they have reacted now that he has been healed? I said, all of them would either come to apologize or they will just have to go and hide their faces in shame.

Everyone that has mocked you, everyone that has assumed that your challenges in life would be permanent, everyone that says you won’t amount to anything in life, by the end of this year, those people will either come and apologize or go and hide in shame when they see you coming in Jesus name (Amen).

Fourthly, after he was healed and got outside, do you think Jesus would have continued with the teaching amidst the noise and jubilations from the people? No, Jesus would have ended the session because many people would have even followed the man as he was going home. It would have been an End of discussion testimony.

The same people that gathered to gossip you shall be the same to gather and help you share your testimonies in Jesus name.

All those people that always look the other way whenever you stay be the road side, the people that always silence their phone whenever you call them, the ones that are always sleeping anytime you visit them, the Organizations that says you are not qualified to work with them, that man that says you are not in the class of women he can marry, the women that says your salary is too small to even buy their makeup, as you faithfully follow the commandments of God and have faith in Him, all those people shall begin to look for you and celebrate you, all those locked doors shall be opened up, the God of wonders shall give you a complete turnaround change of story, people you don’t know shall help you share your testimonies, in the presence of all those mocking you, you shall stand to rejoice, all those that has looked down on you shall begin to hide their faces in shame in Jesus mighty name. Amen!

I do not have an idea of what you might be passing through today, but i can assure you that as long as you put your focus on God, as long as you don't give up, as long as you have a positive mindset, as long as you can still look up to heaven, you will surely smile at last.

We are waiting to hear your testimonies.

Remain ever blessed !
