DIVINE ORDER

Monday June 27th 2022

Genesis 3:8 And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.

As long as Adam and Eve kept in the presence of God and His voice their top priority, everything flowed according to divine order.

As long as Adam and Eve were in proper alignment with God and put Him first in everything they did, the earth listened. Everything God put under them obeyed them as long as they stayed in divine order (Genesis 2:15).

Genesis 3:4 Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

Lucifer displaced God from His rightful place in the heart of man and divine order was violated. This was the beginning of man's predicament: creation began to rebel against man (Genesis 3:15-19).

Every time divine order is violated; not adhered to, the enemy racks havoc, and people are exposed to demonic operations and attacks. 

James 4:7...Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

You can't resist and fight the enemy in your strength but it is through submission to God, that we set our lives in proper alignment and divine order comes into play. 

Our submission should not be an event but a lifestyle so that we can constantly ward off the attacks of the enemy against our lives. 

1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.

Regardless of living in an enemy's territory, increase in wickedness, etc, our only defense and victory is in our submission. 

When the Holy Spirit is given His rightful place, we will draw authority and powers from heaven and creation will submit to us. That business, career, or whatever you are involved in will obey you.  

Matthew 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

When we give God His rightful place in our lives, all these things shall be added to us because creation gravitates towards its creator. 

Crown Him Lord and God over your life, not only in words but in your thoughts, imaginations, behavior, etc and you will see the power that will flow out of your prayer, seeking, praise and worship.

1 Samuel 16:7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

Remember, God does not look at lip service but your heart. Is your heart in your prayers, song, worship, giving, or blessing?
