Indeed, there's a great lesson to learn from what transpired at yesterday's U.S election and today's result.

I woke up with a shock and questions at the result of today's U.S election--because I receive quite a contrary message from two of our members dreams.

Then, I asked the lord, why would you reveal to your children that the one you said was going to win lost, and the one that you said was going to lose eventually won the election?


And the lord answered me with this answers :

• I am full of mystery,i do as I wish and nobody can question my authority. And if I so will I can turn my favour against the unfavoured and anger against the favoured one.

I told you, even on this plantform sometimes ago who was going to win Nigeria election and it came to pass, isn't it?


• The lord also referred me to the book of :

Genesis 3:22:

And the LORD God said, "The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.

That is I have given mankind the power to choose either " evil or good" for that power has been bestowed on man and that is why there is " Hell and Heaven ". Light" and darkness " life or Death" Salvation or Captivity" Christ or Devil" Victory or Affliction"....

Indeed the lord won't take that privilede away from man : the power to choose, either the lord's will for a nation or that of man


• Further more the lord took me to the of :
The power of choice/people against the lord's will :

Give Us a King!

4 Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah,

5 And said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.

6 But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD.

7 And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.

8 According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.

9 Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.

10 And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king.

11 And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots.

12 And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.

13 And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.

14 And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.

15 And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.

16 And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.

17 He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants.

18 And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.

19 Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;

20 That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.

21 And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the LORD.

22 And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go ye every man unto his city.

Indeed, Saul was never God's choice. Just like the winner of U.S election wasn't the lord's will or choice as revealed yesterday. But the lord, having given man the power of choice let them have their way,to elect their choice candidate.

Now, weren't Americans or those who were concerned or voted aware of trump threats and strong words during U.S election campaign-- yet they still make him their choice just like after the lord warned the chidren of istreal of going against is will and insisting on a king : Saul and the destruction that would follow?

In essence, God has given us power of choice and rule define our destiny.
Truly, if God willed and the choice is solely on God is choice would have won according to the revelation but know that God honour his " words" more than his name"?

Now, everything that happened before and during Saul rulership has indeed been unfolded before us. The prophesy of the bible has once against been fulfilled.

But my prayer for the citizens of united states, the immigrants, visitors especially the blacks and the world at large is the trump doesn't fulfil his threats or these strong policy he vowed to fulfil during electoral compaign. Nigeria, blacks, Russian come to mind and world war 4 as some has predicted is he wins.

I pray that the case of America won't be like that of the children of istrael that insisted on having a particular king despite the fact that they were warned and the danger ahead was revealed and glaring before them : threats.


Hmmm..

I pray that this one won't be the case.

God bless the world and may he continue to reign forever...

History is full of example of how nations and individuals are free to change their destiny.

Thanks pastor for this. I just couldn't believe it myself, not one person I know believed this happened. But I just need to find out, what to make of the scripture in Romans 13:1 Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which is from God. The authorities that exist have been appointed by God

Does this mean even though the Lord had another person in mind but He still endorses this one anyway? Like he did with Saul even though He wasn't originally in His plans?

[ebankole]

Yes!

People have made their choice and yes, at times people's choice is God's choice.

And yes,God speaks through man hence the bible say :

Genesis 3:22:

And the LORD God said, "The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil.

Now,the fact here is whether he was God's choice or not the voice of the people is still the lord's choice. So yes, the lord has spoken through the people by given them their own choice(God can't take that away from man). And now that the choice has been made the followers must submit to the authority of the chosen/their choice according to the law which that lord command us ,and I quote :

Romans 13:1 Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which is from God. The authorities that exist have been appointed by God

Note : Saul was never the lord chosen one or choice in the first place but he became one automatically, eventually because he was people's choice. And God can't change his words hence, he instructed the children of Israel so submit to Saul authority :

22 And the LORD said to Samuel,Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go ye every man unto his city.

Now should we say, Saul was the lord's choice in the first place? Ofcourse, NO. But whoever the people choose automatically become the lord choice.

And that is why the bible say :

◄ Matthew 7:7 ►
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

If you are not still clear do not hesitate to ask more questions.

But to be honest with you what transpired two days was a mystery and there is a very strange message the lord was trying to pass.

The lord consciously,deliberate caused the wise, even some powerful men of God to appear foolish.

I repeat, Clinton was initially the lord's choice but changed his mind at the last minute. Infact, trump was loosing at the beginning and the gap was quite high.
But who dare question the lord authority? Who?
