TEXT: PSALMS 48:1-14.
The real Estate Agents Mantra is “location, location, location. It is the number one rule in real Estate. You can buy the right home but in the wrong location. The city of God, Jerusalem is on Mount Zion, Psalm 76, 84, 87, 122 and 132. Zion was a fortress of the Jebusites before King David captured it. Zion is on mount Moriah where Abraham offered his son Isaac, Zion is when king Solomon built the temple. Zion is Jerusalem the city of the Great King.
God cares about location.
Each one of us is either, “In Adam” or “in Christ”. Your location makes all the difference in the world, more over it makes all the difference in the in Eternity. The late Lord Harold Samuel, a real Estate tycoon in Britain coined the Expression. “There are three things that matter in property: location, Location, location. Location determines value where real Estate is concerned. We will all spend Eternity in one of two places, Heaven or Hell-(Luke 16:19-31).
There are destructive locations and there are safe locations spiritually in terms of destiny. This message is for those who need to be relocated from where the enemy has pushed them. Every man or woman is in a particular position in the spirit realm at every given time. Every man has a location, your location determines your possession. 99 of success is based on correct location and the major cause of failure too is as a result of wrong location. Talent alone can not move a life forward; other things are needed as well. Intelligence alone cannot move your life forward. A person can be talented but be an absolute fool.
The problem of Adam and Eve was location after they had eaten of the forbidden fruit and God could not find them at the right location.
God asked Adam “Adam, Adam, where are you?” Adam, Adam where is your location?
Spiritually Adam had shifted location, despite the fact that Adam was still in the garden. It is possible for someone to be in a location of wastage.
It is a great tragedy for a man to be wasted because of wrong location. In Jeremiah 51:1 “Thus saith the Lord “Behold I will raise up against Babylon and against them that dwell in the midst of them rise up against me, a destroying wind”.
Sometimes the wicked dies and the righteous is also swept away in the flood that was sent against the wicked.
There are many innocent citizens whose lives have been surfed out by what is called “stray bullets”. Innocent people die accidentally.
God said He was going to send a destroying wind which would claim both the Babylonians and those who dwell in their midst.
The Innocent victims died because of their location amongst the wicked.
Crossfire operations catch those that are involved and those who have no idea of what is happening.
Jonathan died despite a covenant with David, because he went to war together with King Saul his father. King Saul was already under a curse.
Today winds of destruction are sweeping the world destroying the wicked and the righteous who dwell in the midst of the wicked. Only those who dwell in the shadow of the Almighty are safe-(Psalm 91:1-5).
In Egypt, those who were not located in homes that were under the blood of the lambs their first born children both man and animals died.
Let us learn:-
THOSE WHO ARE WRONGLY LOCATED.
- The Almost there:
- The first group of people in the house of God who are wrongly located are the “Almost there people.”
- These are people who are very near yet very far from the Kingdom of God.
- People in dark regions.
- These are people who don’t take advantage of the light around them.
- They know they have familiar spirits but they would seek deliverance.
- They know they have witchcraft spirit but they are not taking any steps to be free-(Matthew 4:12-16).
- Such people get into crossfire of the Almighty.
- Those who sit at the back.
- In the house of God, there people who like the back seats.
- They don’t like involvement, they sit on the fence to spectate what is happening.
- They don’t want to be bothered by anything, they are ready to run away if there is a commotion.
- Those who sit in the veranda.
- They don’t like entering in the church.
- They claim there are no seats for them inside, it is too hot inside.
- Veranda Christians are a major problem they get swept away in the winds of destruction.
- Church Nannies.
- They come to church to play with children.
- Some of them have no children of their own, but they play with stray children.
- While the service is going on, they are busy playing with the children.
- They did not get to hear the word of God, it is a destructive location to be.
- Perpetual late comers.
- They come when the praise and worship is ended.
- They are careful to keep appointments with their friends or business partners and never get late to their place of work. To them God’s house is secondary.
- Perpetual late comers are serving another god. They are in destructive locations.
- Strange Pastors associates.
- They are close to pastors but not born again.
- They are close to the truth but the truth (Jesus) is not in them.
- They carry the bag of the pastor, they carry his briefcase or Bible but they don’t carry the bag of the Holy Spirit their lives.
- They are like closed bottles in the midst of the Ocean.
- Although they are in the midst of the ocean, no water can get inside them.
- They are in a destructive location, they are like Gehazi and Judas Escariot very close yet too far from salvation.
- For all these mislocated people the message from Christ is-(Matthew 3:10)
- Do not allow God to cut you off. God wants you to bring forth fruit of repentance.
- Psalm 71:3 “Be thou my strong habitation (location) where unto I may continually resort; thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress.”
- This verse means, if I am inside a vehicle, He gives commandment to that vehicle to save me.
- If I am in the Airplane, He commands the Airplane to save me.
- If I am in a boat in the sea, God gives the boat, the captain and the crew to save me.
- If someone food poisons me, the poison is commanded to save me and not hurt me.
- This commandment is not given for those in wrong locations.
- Once your location is wrong and the Almighty cannot find you, you will be wasted.
- If you are in the wrong location you will be wasted.
- Once you are wrongly located, God cannot find you where you are supposed to be, blessings will not come to you.
- Peter was located wrongly, they tried to fish all night, catching nothing. Jesus Christ relocated them.
- Jonah mislocated himself to Tarshish.
- Make sure you are in the right location.
THE POWER OF LOCATION-(Genesis 1:3)
- In the journey of life, the issue of location is very vital.
- God had to relocate Abraham from UR to Canaan (Gen 12:1-3)
- The secret of Abraham’s life had to do with location. Your location will determine how far and how fast you move in life.
- One of the keys to success in life is being at the right place, at the right time, with right people.
- Your location will determine the kind of people, friends you keep, the type of people you associate with, the type of friends you keep.
- Location will determine who your children will marry, the kind of in-laws you will have.
- The environment you where born, the type of primary school, college, will determine and contribute to your destiny.
- When you miss your location your destiny could be missed.
CONCLUSION – PRAYER.
- Anointing of bad location upon my life, die In Jesus Name.
- My Father, deliver me from wastage, in the Name of Jesus Christ.
- Dark authorities assigned to waste my life and calling-Scatter now In the Name of Jesus Christ.
- My Father, relocate me to the place of usefulness-In the Name of Jesus Christ.
- Father give me the power to be at the right place at the right time, with the right people- In Jesus Name.
