TOPIC: GOD TURNS SITUATIONS AROUND
MEMORISE : The ark of the LORD remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months. And the LORD blessed Obed-Edom and all his household (2 Samuel 6:11).
READ: 2 Samuel 6:1-12
[1]. Again David gathered all the choice men of Israel, thirty thousand.
[2]. And David arose and went with all the people who were with him from Baale Judah to bring up from there the ark of God, whose name is called by the Name, the Lord of Hosts, who dwells between the cherubim.
[3]. So they set the ark of God on a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was on the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart.
[4]. And they brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was on the hill, accompanying the ark of God; and Ahio went before the ark.
[5]. Then David and all the house of Israel played music before the Lord on all kinds of instruments of fir wood, on harps, on stringed instruments, on tambourines, on sistrums, and on cymbals.
[6]. And when they came to Nachon’s threshing floor, Uzzah put out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen stumbled.
[7]. Then the anger of the Lord was aroused against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by the ark of God.
[8]. And David became angry because of the Lord’s outbreak against Uzzah; and he called the name of the place Perez Uzzah to this day.
[9]. David was afraid of the Lord that day; and he said, “How can the ark of the Lord come to me?”
[10]. So David would not move the ark of the Lord with him into the City of David; but David took it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
[11]. The ark of the Lord remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months. And the Lord blessed Obed-Edom and all his household.
[12]. Now it was told King David, saying, “The Lord has blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God.” So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with gladness.
EXPOSITION
It takes 9 months for a pregnant woman to deliver her baby. It takes the elephant 18 to 20 months to do the same. It takes a lion 180 days to deliver cubs. For the hippopotamus, it is after 240 days while sharks need 11 to 12 months to deliver. It took Jabez just 5 prayer points to change his story positively (1 Chro. 4:9-10). The unchangeable Changer is not limited by time and space, because He is the Creator of the universe. He is changing your story now. God is blessing you with blessings that will outlive your generation and restore what you have lost. His grace can change your name and status. It only takes three months for God to turn your story around. Believe it, cling to it, and confess it to yourself. The lepers received their healing immediately (Matt. 8:3), and Lazarus came out of the grave immediately (Jn. 11:44). It is time for you to come out of sickness and chains. Believe it and receive it now! God is present in your house and ready to bless you with His Ark. Accept Him now and experience the joy of salvation in your household. Are you saved? This is the greatest ark of God that can bless you.
PRAYER POINTS
1. I pray that my heart and home will be under the guidance and protection of the Lord Jesus as my Lord and Saviour, in Jesus' name.
2. Lord Jesus, lask that the Ark of the Holy Spirit fills my household till eternity.
3. Pray for the Authority of Christ Apostolic Church, our Fathers the President, General Superintendent, General Evangelist, General Secretary, Finance Director and Director of Missions as directed by God's spirit.
