Topic: WONDERFUL RECOVERY – Part 2

Scripture Reading: “And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.” Joel 2:25.

Scripture Reading: 2 Kings 6:1-7.

EXPOSITION:

Lost and waste are never the wish of God for man. It is the devil, our enemy, that specializes in stealing, killing and destroying all that is good. In contrast, God specializes in wonders and restoration of destinies. Helping men recovering their destinies is His pleasure. It is written, “But as one was cutting down a tree, the iron ax head fell into the water; and he cried out and said, "Alas, master! For it was borrowed." “So the man of God said, "Where did it fall?" And he showed him the place. So he cut off a stick, and threw it in there; and he made the iron float. Therefore he said, "Pick it up for yourself." So he reached out his hand and took it.” 2 Kings 6:5-7. But before recovery can take place, there are things to put in order:

1. Discover who you are. They remembered they borrowed the axe. Examine your life. Are you who you should be or enemy have taken away what belong to you? Remember, "while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. (Matt. 13:25).

2. Cry out at the right time. “Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:”Isaiah 55:6. 

3. Cry out to the right helper - God Almighty, not idols or men who could not be of help. The sons of the prophet cried to Elisha their master. “Seek the LORD, and ye shall live;” Amos 5:6.

4. Discover what you have lost and probably when it got lost. “So the man of God said, "Where did it fall?" And he showed him the place.” 2 Kings 6:6.

Prayer Point: 

1. Father, help me to discover myself and do the needful  so as to experience your wonders in my life.

2. Lord, make my life a sample of your glory.
