He Rules, He Decides, But Let The Watchers Arise!
The Nigerian political landscape has been busiest in the past weeks, culminating in the presidential election that is almost concluded, as it relates to collation and eventual announcement!
It is also understandable that the entire populace is divided among the four top contestants in their choice of who should be there. I am not here to support any candidate but to provide some guidance at such times as this!
The speculation is also that there has been rigging and that INEC is compromised.
For believers, I have one scripture for you this morning and I will point out a few things.
First, read the following Scripture in KJV, Amplified and The Message Translation.
Dan 4:17 (KJV)
This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.
Dan 4:17 (AMPC)
This sentence is by the decree of the [heavenly] watchers and the decision is by the word of the holy ones, to the intent that the living may know that the Most High [God] rules the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whomever He will and sets over it the humblest and lowliest of men.
Dan 4:17 (MSG)
The angels announce this decree, the holy watchmen bring this sentence, So that everyone living will know that the High God rules human kingdoms. He arranges kingdom affairs however he wishes, and makes leaders out of losers.
He Rules, He Decides, But Let The Watchers Arise!
So we can see the following:
1. There is an announcement from heaven of who should be the President. The announcement of heaven might be different from the announcement on earth!
2. There is a part for the watchers to play and it is never too late. This role is an unending intercession, as watchers.
In fact, the Message Translation says the angels announce, but the watchers bring the sentence to reality!
3. All will know at the end that God rules in the affairs of this nation, regardless of any anomaly that is playing out.
4. God will eventually give this presidency to whom He will. No man, I repeat, no mortal man will subvert the will of God if THE WATCHERS play their role!
5. God can make leaders out of losers! That one is deep. See it above in The Message Translation!
So my dear people, let’s continue to intercede. We are called to be intercessors, not interlocutors.
Let’s do our job as watchers and leave the rest to God.
He Rules, He Decides, But Let The Watchers Arise!
My name is Dunamis Tunde Okunowo!
Be blessed on this day!
