DIVINE RESTORATION
2 Samuel 9:1-7 "David asked, "Is there anyone still left of the house of Saul to whom I can show kindness for Jonathan’s sake?"
2 Now there was a servant of Saul’s household named Ziba. They called him to appear before David, and the king said to him, "Are you Ziba?"
"Your servant," he replied.
3 The king asked, "Is there no one still left of the house of Saul to whom I can show God’s kindness?"
Ziba answered the king, "There is still a son of Jonathan; he is crippled in both feet."
4 "Where is he?" the king asked.
Ziba answered, "He is at the house of Makir son of Ammiel in Lo Debar."
5 So King David had him brought from Lo Debar, from the house of Makir son of Ammiel.
6 When Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, he bowed down to pay him honor.
David said, "Mephibosheth!"
"Your servant," he replied.
7 "Don’t be afraid," David said to him, "for I will surely show you kindness for the sake of your father Jonathan. I will restore to you all the land that belonged to your grandfather Saul, and you will always eat at my table." (NIV)
Before i continue this message i like you to take this prayers:
1. Oh Lord open the book of remembrance for me in the name of Jesus.
2. Any Power of darkness holding my blessings be frustrated in the name of Jesus
What happen to Mephibosheth can also be found in many Christians life today. Saul and Jonathan die in one day leaving their son who can not walk. To extend that he is no longer in his father’s house, it is a sad story to hear that a son of a former king is experience such a bitter situation.
Mephibosheth has lost is honour as a son of former king. Saul was like a formal president of this days who has ruled for many years and under normally circumstance, he kindred suppose to enjoy the benefit of a formal president. Many may ask this question "has God not rejected him as King" yes God has rejected him as a king but He did to reject his family for what rightful belong to them. Saul has pay for his disobedient to God through death. The devil is taken advantage of that circumstances to torment Saul’s family.
I pray for you Every Power taking of advantage of your family circumstance to torment your life, i command that power to be frustrated in the Name of JESUS.
Many of us have lost our position and we need to cry out for divine Restoration, because God has promise restoration. I don’t want know what you have lost in the pasts, but what I am saying is that the Lord will restore back to your rightful position in the name of Jesus.
Pray this prayer: My divine helper located me by Fire in the Name of Jesus.
When you careful look the the relationship between David and Johnathan it was like a blood brother relationship, they were very close to the extend that Johnathan started revealing his father (Saul) secret to David what a close relationship but after the death of the Johnathan and Saul, King David forget He best friend Son for years until that faithful day the God decided to remember Mephibosheth. You need God intervention I need God intervention. Take this prayer with determination: Oh God my father intervene in my situation today in the name of Jesus"
You may ask this question what is restoration:
1. It is when God divinely turn you captivities around
2. It is when God lift you up
3. It is when God give you for an exchange
4. It is when God open the book of remembrance for you.
What to do for God to restore You
1. Kill your pride
2. Pray restoration prayers
3. Repent from you sins
4. Have faith for restoration
In conclusion when God decide to restore you no power can stop it, He will begin to trouble those that is concern. That was what happen to Mephibosheth, because David was troubled and He said He there any let in the house of Saul that i may show him kindness for Johnathan sake. It was not from Him, it was God divine arrangement. I pray may the Lord trouble those that are suppose to show you kindness in the name of Jesus.
i pray that the Lord restore you back to your rightful position in the name of Jesus.
God bless you.
