By Apostle Alex Adusei Agyemang

And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar. And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land, which I shall tell thee of: Genesis 26:1-2KJV

There are Christians who make decisions based on their senses. Where to stay, invest and work are all decided by sensory information and sometimes the desire to copy others.

They make decisions based on what the world tells them. There are even some who think they have a secured future because they live in a country with a buoyant economy. Do you know what tomorrow holds? There are others who think they cant make it because of where they find themselves.

You are not secured because you live in America or Europe, neither are you disadvantaged because you stay in Africa. You are a child of the blessing hence your security is in being where God wants you.

There was a famine and drought in Gerar in the days of Isaac, he wanted to go down to Egypt, a buoyant economy at the time but God asked Isaac to stay in the place of famine. This was where God was going to bless him. There are Christians who are not prospering just because they are in the wrong place. For some Christians, you may have to move to where God intends before that grace will work to secure you a job.

The most important thing in life is to be in God’s place, not where you want to be. If Isaac was to go to Egypt, the blessing won’t work. He had to stay in Gerar, God’s place so to prosper. This same grace will work for some in Egypt but not Isaac. He had to be in God’s place for him to prosper.

As long as you are not in God’s place, all you will produce will be of the flesh. The supernatural will only work when you are in God’s place. There is God’s place for every Christian to shine, find yours.

He says, “Woe to the obstinate children, “declares the LORD,“to those who carry out plans that are not mine, forming an alliance, but not by my Spirit, heaping sin upon sin; who go down to Egypt without consulting me; who look for help to Pharaoh’s protection, to Egypt’s shade for refuge…….Isaiah 30:1-2NIV”

What alliances have you forged that are not of God? The place you are, did you move there after consulting God or is that just a decision you yourself made?

God bless you!
