ECCLESIASTES 2:1-11
King Solomon who had tested everything good on earth is
telling me and you that they are all vanity upon vanity. There is nothing new
under the Sun today which King Solomon has not experienced during his life
time. Whatever position we are occupying today, somebody had once occupied such
position. So there is nothing new under the sun which sons of men have not
experienced in the past.
Looking at the Global challenges and situation of things,
the world is changing with innovation and creative events that bring about
civilization and changes in the society. All these things had common events
with what happened in the days old. Civilization comes and civilization goes,
life continues. As people are born daily, in the same manner people dies as
well. God had not created any to be poor but circumstance of destiny is of a
making process. Some destinies tell at the beginning while others speak volume
in the end. But better is the end of a matter than the beginning.
ECCLESIASTES 7:8
(8) Better is the end of a
matter than its beginning
Better
to be patient than to be haughty in spirit”
That is the scoring point of every destiny. The beginning
does not count but what counts is the end. How did He end up? Your end speaks
volumes than beginning. People mocks the beginning because they are short
sighted by nature to see the destination. But it is only a man of Holy Ghost
can fathom the end with the eyes of the spirit which is in the head.
ECCLESIASTES 2:14
(14) “The wise one has his eyes in the head, but
the
Stupid one is walking
in darkness. I have also
Come to realize that
there is one outcome that
Befalls all of them”
Super ferrous destiny is end of discussion. It begins with
tattered and battered jingles, awkward to imagine and confusing to men. At the
middle of phase, it builds a hedge of protection and calls for safety of His
subject. At the semi-quarter of the phase, the pronouncement of the destiny
begins and attracts announcement. And the announcement is indefinite. Now this is
the climax of destiny and it continues to increase in speaking volumes till the
end. And that is called divine.
The futility is the ideology of experience irrespective of
obstacles encountered that made it the futile race. I grumble because after His
achievement he could not carry them to his grave yard but left it to and
undisciplined and non-challant heir to manage the sweat of a great Hero and
King of Israel. Is that not vanity? It is vanity to the end.
ECCLESIASTES 5:13
(13) “There is a great tragedy that I have seen
under the
Sun: riches that were hoarded by
their owner to his
Own harm.
(14) Those riches were lost because of
disastrous venture
And when he becomes a father to a
son, he has nothing
Left in his possession
(15) Just as one came from his mother’s womb,
naked he will
Go away, just as he came. And he
cannot carry away
Anything for all his hard work
(16) This too is a great tragedy: Exactly as he
came, so he
Will go away; and what profit is
there to the one who
Keeps working hard for the wind?”
God is calling on His own people today to leave a life of
sacrifice through obedient to the gospel of truth about our lord Jesus Christ.
Believe in that name and lead a life full of Holy Ghost which has great
compensation and reward in the end. King David, King Solomon and other Kings in
Israel did not have the opportunity to receive the Holy Ghost. But I and you
are opportune to encounter such a great force and power that travails even in
the Den of Lions. I t was with Daniel in His Days.
DANIEL 5:12
(12) “For as an excellent spirit, and knowledge,
and understanding
Interpreting of dreams and showing
of hard sentences,
And dissolving of every doubts, were
found in the same
Daniel, whom the King named
Beltshazzar: now let Daniel
be called and he will show the
interpretation”
That is Holy Ghost in Operation; you can only conquer
futility or vanity by the power of the Holy Ghost. This was the only man that
does not Joke with prayers to the extent that his opponent used it against him
and he was thrown in to the Den of Lions. And God intervened.
DANIEL 6:3
(3) “Now Daniel
was distinguishing himself over other
high officials and Satraps, for there was
an
extraordinary spirit in Him, and
the King intended
to elevate him over the entire kingdom”
DANIEL 6:10
(1)
“ But
as soon as Daniel knew that the decree had
Been signed, he went to his house
which had the
Windows his roof chamber open
toward Jerusalem.
And three times a day he got down
on his knees and
Prayed and offered praise before
his God, as he had
Regularly does prior to this”
This is why Prayer is
synonymous to evangelism; this two brings down God’s presence in one’s life.
What people fights most is the source of strength to your destiny. When they
discover the source of your strength they can do anything to stop you from that
direction. It happened to Samson, they used Delilah to discover his source of
strength and curbed it, it also happened to Daniel,. They discover that His
source of Strength was prayer ; they nearly killed him on trying to curb it.
Jesus came with the gospel of peace and they trying to curb it made Him the
King of King and The lord of lords. Now what is your source of strength Guard
it with Jealousy even on to death. Because that where your morning Sunshine
will arise.
REVELATION 12:11
(2)
“And
They overcame him by the blood of the lamb
And by the word of their
testimony; and they loved
Not their lives unto the death”
Now, what is our testimony and what should it be?
MARK 16:15
(15) “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the
world
And preach the gospel to every
creature.
(16) He that believeth and is baptized shall be
saved;
But he that believeth not shall be
damned.
(17) And these signs shall follow them that
believe;
In my name shall they cast out
devils; they shall
Speak with new tongues
(18) They shall take up serpents, and if they
drink any
Deadly things, it shall not hurt
them; they shall
Lay hand on the sick and they shall
recover”
The testimony alone which is the preaching the good news
command signs and wonders. The signs and wonders that follow the good news is
to confirm to those that believes that this is the truth. Just as we said
earlier that prayer and evangelism brings down God’s power of Holy Ghost. And
this will solve the problem of vanity in one’s life.
