Calvary Pointers Morning Showers 07 September 2023 Devotional by Reverend Ajisafe Opeyemi - The Battle That Is Not Yours
The Battle That Is Not Yours
2 Kings 23:29,30 - In his days Pharaohnechoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates: and king Josiah went against him; and he slew him at Megiddo, when he had seen him. And his servants carried him in a chariot dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulchre. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father's stead.
Josiah was a very good king of Judah. He became king at a tender age of eight and he did what was right in the right of the Lord throughout his years of rule.
He was used by God to stamp out idolatry. He renovated the temple of God and restored all the festivals that God commanded the Israelites. In 2 Kings 23:25 - And like unto him was there no king before him, that turned to the Lord with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him.
There was no connection whatsoever between this battle and the assignment God has given Josiah. He just went out of his way and got involved, and that was how he died, in a battle that was completely not his.
Beware of uncommanded assignments. They will waste your time and resources, and they can waste your life. If God has not given you that assignment, then you have no business with it, because you will have no reward for it.
Stay within the confine of God's assignment for your life. Face your own life, your own assignment, your own destiny; leave what does not concern you and it shall be well with you.
Remember, you do not have more than twenty four hours in a day. Invest them wisely into your God-given assignment.
Learn to mind your own business and do that judiciously.
Beloved, I wish you a glorious new week. May you experience Fruitfulness in Jesus name.
