KINGDOM CITIZEN'S JOURNEY-THE NATION OF ISRAEL EXAMPLE

In the book of Exodus, the children of Israelite took off in the full glare of the Enemy that had swore to keep them in slavery. Even though the Egyptians don’t like it, they just had to ask them to go. Not only that they had to ask them to leave, they gave the Israelis gifts of gold and other valuables. Now, that is hard to swallow. The Egyptians were forced to allow the Israelite leave after every of their first born child had died as a result of their refusal to let Israel leave, and yet, they shower Israel with gifts? Well, that is a Kingdom citizen’s journey for you. 

Once you take off as commanded, God will make even your enemy to provide for that journey. You need not sneak around once ordered by God to carry out an assignment. Trust Him to protect and provide for you while you go about His Kingdom business on earth.

Your Enemies Will Pursue You

The children of Israel had not gone far before the Egyptians realised what has happen. They had let go the slaves that had all the while build and tend other menial jobs. They either bring them back or do these jobs themselves. Soon enough, they pursued and caught up with them, but of course, the Lord would not allow His chosen nation on assignment be attacked by the Egyptians because they were not mentally and physically ready then to fight the Egyptians. So, God protected them with Pillar of fire and cloud.

Now, you may take off with fanfare, things may be going on smoothly. But suddenly, everything may come crashing down on you. You will begin to wonder and remember what you were probably told; “that lady is not your wife, she is sick, she comes from a wicked family, you don’t have what it takes to start and run a business, your business partner of many years may run with you money or a banker runs away with part of your business capital and then, you begin to feel that the end has come for you. No, that is very far from the end, the end is the Promised Land; the fulfillment of your destiny

Remember the prophecy concerning Paul’s journey to Israel and Rome? He was certain at some point that he was going to be killed, but God delivered him. Also, the children of Israel came to the red sea on their way to the Promised Land, when they saw the Egyptians chasing after them, they thought that that was the end of their journey. They began to complain against Moses, God heard their complaints, came down and make a way where there seem to be no way; and they worked through the red sea on a dry ground.

What you need is to stay right on cause, because God will provide a way right through that problem. If you run away from it, you could be running away from your destiny. God will surely protect you as you takeoff for his assignment and the fulfillment of your destiny in Jesus name.
