DIVINE VISITATIONS

*[[Zep 2:7]] *… for the LORD their God shall visit them, and turn away their captivity.

There’s something about the visitation of God that brings divine turn-around in the lives of His people. Many times in the Old Testament, God visited His people and wrought amazing wonders in their midst. In Genesis, God visited Abraham and His wife conceived at an old age *(Gen 21:1).

These divine visitations are always accompanied by signs and wonders. Some have said that since the Christian is born again and has God’s indwelling presence, he doesn’t need divine visitation. Such people contend that there’s no need for VISITATIONS if there’s PRESENCE.

This position is, however, not always right. You see, divine visitation is not the absence of divine presence but rather the aiding of a manifested presence. Also, divine visitation is not about God Himself visiting you; angelic interventions are divine visitations too.

Even though God lives in you, there are things you can’t do because of your limitations in the flesh. For example, you can’t be in two places at the same time. Jesus needed angelic intervention to be strengthened *(Luk 22:43). After His resurrection, an angel had to roll away the stone at the tomb *(Mat 28:2). Peter needed angelic assistance to free him from chains in prison *(Acts 12:7). An angel opened prison doors and freed the apostles of old *(Acts 5:19). Paul needed angelic aid to preserve his life and those on-board with him when their shipwrecked *(Acts 27:23).

In our opening text, the bible says the LORD your God “shall visit you and turn your captivity around.” This is your moment for divine visitations. Your captivity is turning around. The limitations you had are leaving you NOW! Angels are released on your behalf! Only believe!

Prayer:
Father, I thank you for your goodness. I receive divine visitations this week. I declare that the impossible will be accomplished in my life this week. All things are working for me now. Angels are working for me now. Thank you, Jesus.
