Our text is taken from the books of ext: John 3:7-8 and 1 Corinthians 4:9.
In John 3, Jesus was talking to Nicodemus. Now, Jesus thoroughly dealt with this man in spite of the knowledge the man claimed he had. In fact, the Man of Galilee got the man thoroughly confused.
The Lord said those who are born of the Spirit are like the wind. God made the apostles a spectacle: something people watch in wonder, they look at them in wonder.
===> Say: Lord, make me a divine phenomenon.
When you become a divine phenomenon, you become a mystery. A mystery is:
– a secret
– something that baffles people
– something that is perplexing
– something that is strange
– something that cannot be explained
– something that is beyond the power to explain.
We need to become mysterious men and women. Whether you and I like it or not, we are living in a very mysterious world and there are terrible things and mysterious things happening around us all the time. So, if you want to live in a mysterious world, and you want to survive in a mysterious world, you too must become mysterious.
You cannot expect to live here as a natural man, and you expect to succeed and be an overcomer. This is why unbelievers who do not know Jesus, go to receive strange powers to fortify themselves because they know they are in strange places. They know they are living in a mysterious world and because they do not know that there is a higher mystery, they subject themselves to the satanic mystery.
It is amazing the kind of things that people do. Our world is full of mysteries and it takes mysteries to tackle mysteries. You must live a mysterious life to overcome the mysterious circumstances of this life in which we are in.
You must become a divine phenomenon. You must come to a time in your life when human beings do not understand you anymore, where human beings find it difficult to decode you.
“The wind bloweth where it listeth…” You just hear the sound of that wind, you do not know from where it is coming, you do not know where it is going to. “…so is everyone who is born of the Spirit”. So, we are supposed to be as mysterious as the wind. It takes a mysterious approach to have a mysterious triumph or victory in this current world.
===> I can see somebody here this morning, within the next 24 hours, you shall receive a mysterious miracle in the name of Jesus!
===> Within the next 24 hours, what you have battled for 10 years will collapse immediately in the name of Jesus.
“The wind bloweth where it listeth”. The wind is moving air. The wind is a bulldozer. The wind is invisible. You cannot catch it. You cannot see it. But the wind has cleansing power. The wind is one of the most powerful forces on the surface of the earth. That is the thing the Bible compares us to. That is why I am talking about wind.
The wind:
– is independent in motion.
– has penetrating power
– is completely unpredictable, you cannot predict the wind. When the wind starts in the air, those in the air know that wind is blowing.
If you are inside the plane when the wind starts, you will know. If you are on the sea and the wind starts, you will know. But the thing is this; believers are supposed to be like the wind.
– has a voice
– moves wherever it wants. It has no material shape. You cannot say it is like this or that.
– is an unseen force. So our lives are supposed to be as mysterious as that wind.
===> I am going to prophesy upon somebody now, that all those powers that are gathered against you, conspiring against you, the wind of the fire of God shall blow them away in the name of Jesus.
Say: Lord, make me a divine phenomenon by the power in the blood of Jesus.
When you become that divine phenomenon when men begin to look down on you, it is then your sun that begins to shine. When men say you are finished, it is then you will rise and overshadow them. When men say it is over for you, it is then your stars begin to spring forth because you are as mysterious as the wind; and because you are as mysterious as the wind, every exit from something becomes an entry into a better one for you.
All the anti-success calculations they are making against your life will just backfire.
When you become a divine phenomenon, every loss becomes again in disguise because you are as mysterious as the wind.
Because you are as mysterious as the wind when your miracle starts, people will think it is a problem, and what others call problems become promotions for you.
Read your Bible and read it very well. The children of Israel were crying in bondage. By the time God would begin to answer their prayer for deliverance, He did not go to start destroying the Egyptians, no. He started with a burning bush. What is the relationship between a burning bush and people who are in bondage? That is the mystery of God. Men who understand this mystery know how to move.
===> I pray that the Lord will give you illogical testimonies. The Lord will turn every mess, every rubbish in your life to a divine message in the name of Jesus.
===> Any form of crying will become a crown in the name of Jesus.
===> All the aggressive attacks against you will become stepping stones to breakthroughs. The Lord will lift you beyond explanations in the name of Jesus.
The prayers we are going to start praying just now are the type that you should get ready for gossips, envy, criticism because once you become a divine phenomenon, you become a gossip title.
They gossiped about Daniel because Daniel was beyond explanation. They said, “what kind of person is this one?” Like the wind, they could not decode Daniel.
===> Like the wind, they will not decode you. They cannot explain you. You become a divine phenomenon, a divine film show, a divine spectacle.
I want you to understand this morning, what the Bible is telling us. We need to make God our friend. We need to befriend the Holy Spirit. We need to key into the mysterious power of God. “The wind bloweth where it listeth, thou hearest the sound thereof but canst not tell whether it goeth or cometh. So is every one that is born of the Spirit”.
This morning, we are going to pray some prayers now on making you a divine phenomenon.
