2020 My Year Of Greatness
Contributed by Pastor Amos Dele Dada on Jun 10, 2020 (message contributor)
Summary: The Lord says Y2020 is our year of Greatness!!!! I pray that this prophecy shall come to pass in your life. Let’s look at three bible characters Abraham, Moses and Joshua whom God promised greatness as we proceed in this message:
Now go back and see him implement that revelation in Gen 30:37-42. He was strategic. It is clear Jacob became rich because he took hold of the promises of God and ran with it by being industrious. There is no short course or route to greatness, no drive-through. I listen recently to Ali Baba the Internet giant of China he expressed, ‘industry’ as his path. I watched Dangote being interview by Mo Ibrahim he spoke about, ‘industry’. Ask Bill Gates, talk to Mark Zuckerberg you will hear the same thing. There is no ‘sweat-less’ success, it is only by “sweat-fulness”. To prepare what you are reading now took hours of sleeplessness! Roll up your sleeves in the year 2020 and lets us get to the greatness that God has earmarked for us by doing the right thing!
6. Other Factors: . Time will fail me to deal in detail with other factors that will enhance your greatness. But I must tell you that corrupt and sharp practices will not take you to greatness, it might give you sudden wealth, but it will only lead you to sorrow and jail. Don’t keep wrong company. Don’t do shady business, embrace holiness, righteousness, integrity, godliness and be prayerful-that is what is called godly character. Be patient. Good things are not rushed. Because they prophesied greatness to you today does not mean you will be great today. There is something called process and timing! Visions don’t speak at the beginning they speak at the end. Be a person of great vision. Be an eagle, be focused. Great people make mistakes but don’t get hung up on their mistakes. They do not allow their mistakes to define them, they learn from them and move on. Every great person failed at one point, they learnt from their failures and progressed. Stop making enemies of every person you come in contact with. Human beings are your greatest asset. Rather value people. Men are God’s method and yours. Whatever God wants to do he finds people to do it, don’t drive away your divine helper. Some people’s helpers are their spouses and they have punched them away! Watch your mouth, how you talk to people matters. Respect begets respect. Three categories of people will define you depending how you relate with them, your superiors, peers and subordinates. Greatness comes in small doses!
From My Heart To YOU
In my flight from Ottawa to Florida a short vacation, the Lord told me - great people don’t do things casually. They are totally committed. Look at people like Elisha. Even when Elijah kept discouraging him. He kept pushing and pursuing his goal - tap the anointing for commitment! You may need a new paradigm shift to your church and your spiritual life generally this year if you really desire to be great! You may need to engage yourself in specific ways and specific roles and projects. Greatness is not achieved by taking a walk. It is by engaging in real work for the Master. See men like Daniel, Shederack Meshac and Abdenego. If according to 3John 2, prosperity is predicated on spirituality then I will advise you to change ‘your spiritual approach to life” Get serious with reading the word of God, pray, fast, and don’t ignore the earlier counsel offered you in this piece. There is more to life than just eating, whinning and complaining!
