GOD’S OBLIGATION; THE TEST FOR PROMOTION

ISAIAH 40:1-END
ECCLESIASTES 1:1-END
ISAIAH 60:1-END

Our God is a God of innovation and development. Today God has promised to enlarge your boarders, you are not meant to be stagnant. God has created you to dominate where ever the sole of your feet tramples. So your dominion begins where your sufferings end because you must suffer with Christ, so you can reign with him. Today God is taking you in to another phase of your destiny. Prosperity is knocking at the door, look! No matter how you twist it, Christianity is incomplete when one has not attained prosperity; this is where God pays you for every labor of love you rendered both in secret and open towards expansion of his kingdom.

The kingdom prosperity comes by grace, which is what one does not merits and he inherits at the end of the day. So God is telling you that today is that day, which your chapter for a new phase of life in Christ has already opened.
ISAIAH 60:1
(1)                   “Arise, shine, for thy light is come, and the glory
of the lord is reason upon thee
(2)                   For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth
And gross darkness the people: but the lord shall
arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon
thee,

God must always do what he has promised to do for his people despite the obstacles, but are you prepared to receive those blessings? God cannot just hand resources into your hands without getting you ready to handle those resources. God will start by handing you little resources to see how you utilize it, some people cannot pay their tithe from the little income they receive in labor and yet they are expecting promotion and greater money from God. Look, you cannot eat your cake and have it again. Tithing is your obligation to God not your human right. Your obligation here means your responsibility or duty to God. So when you don’t meet up with God’s obligations you will be severely punished, just as government punishes those that does not pay their tax, in the same manner divine servants of God will always fight and scatter those that does not meet up with God’s obligations like tithe, offerings and Vows. So God test his servants in this regard to get them ready for the  bigger blessings.
DEAUTRONOMY 23:21
(21)      “If you make a vow to the lord your God,
            Do not be slow about paying it. For the lord
            Your God will  surely require it of you
Otherwise, it will be a sin on your part”


Vow becomes obligation that is not compulsory, God also specifies that you better don’t vow than that you vow and not fulfill the vow. This is another test just as tithing. When you make a vow to God and don’t pay your vow; God cannot trust you with true riches.
ECCLESIASTES 5:4
(4)        “Whenever you make a vow to God, do not delay to pay it,
            For he finds no pleasure in stupid ones. What you vow, pay
(5)        Better for you not to vow than to vow and not pay
(6)        Do not allow your mouth to cause you to sin, and do not
            Say before the angel that it was a mistake
            Why make the true God indignant over what you say
            So that he has to destroy the works of your hands”

Every of God’s obligation you fulfill prepares your ground for greater achievement in life. Just as tithing rebukes devourers, vows bring God’s intervention in every critical condition or situation to give the victim the best out of life.
PSAL M 50:14
(14)      “Offer thanksgiving as your sacrifice to God
            and pay your vow to most high
(15)      Call on me in the time of distress I will rescue you
            and you will glorify my name”

So as you are about to enter a new phase of life, God expects you to fulfill your obligation towards him and then your human right in the kingdom of God will never be infringed upon. Also today God is preparing you for a greater height in destiny. God is about to open a door that no man can close except your ignorant and Him God who open that door can close it by Himself.
ISAIAH 60:5
(5)        “At that time you will see and become radiant
            and your heart will throb and overflow
            because the wealth of the sea will be directed
to you
The resources of the nations will come to you”

Today arise to your responsibility towards God, for your manifestation of God’s glory is at hand for people to see and glorify God.
