SET ON DIVINE SPEED & BREAK EARTHLY SPEED LIMITS!

So, Ahab rode a horse and someone called Elijah overtook him?! Does not sound new, but I was wondering...

The horse a king will ride upon is not an average speed horse; should be something with amazing speed. So, I decided to find out some stuff.

There are different breeds of horses with different amazing speeds. One breed, the ‘thorough bred race horse’ can run at 49 km/hr. Then comes the ‘quarterhorse’ smashing an amazing 76 km/hr. Some of these horses can hit 13.6 metres/secs. Infact, one horse called ‘Secretariat’, the great race horse hit a world record of 16.764metres/secs.

Now, if I should attempt to literally extrapolate things; Usain bolt’s record is at 9.58 secs for 100metres. If the horse above were to run 100 metres, it should cover it in say 6 secs. It means that there are amazing horses with amazing speeds...and I believe King Ahab would have ridden on one of the best and fastest horses; horses that could beat the fastest man on earth presently. To imagine that King Ahab was ridding upon one of the best horses in his kingdom and was outrun by a man with just two (2) legs is interesting.

Elijah; he rose from the place of intense and fervent prayers; he was far behind King Ahab who was ridding upon a royal horse presumably of heightened speed. Ahab began that journey long before Elijah, but when God set Elijah in motion, he overtook Ahab.

“And the hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel” (1 Kings 18:46).

This is divine speed! It makes overtaking allowed in this kingdom. It does not really matter who started first, it is who takes first (in the end). Many may appear to have gone ahead and you are still “held up” in God’s presence, waiting upon Him. But when God says it is time for you to be glorified and set forth into manifestation, you will overtake those who seem to have gone ahead, and no demon or witch can stop you. That is the moment you become like a stone that no one dares attempt to stop, victimized, intimidate or frustrate...it is not everybody that can be victimized!

“And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder” (Matthew 21:44)

You are that stone! The stone which perhaps was hitherto rejected by the builders and despised by men...but “The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes” (Matthew 21:42). You are manifesting God’s glory and at the same time unstoppable. Indeed, the glory itself is a defence (Isaiah 4:5d).

Now, look at this; Jesus is the Chief Corner Stone, “Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone” (Ephesians 2:20). And the word says ‘We are corner stones.’ When we learn to wait upon God patiently and faithfully in the place of prayers, the word and fasting, and our lives as ‘corner stones’ is defined by the Chief Corner Stones Himself, then no satan can stop us.

Remember, Elijah rose from the place of prayer and he overtook. He did not rise from the place of addicted movie watching, or excessive sleep, or persistent gists, or from sin...he rose from prayer and he was unstoppable. I think this man called Elijah should be the world record holder for athletics because he outran royal horse with a royal man (Ahab). I just believe, it does not matter the big names ahead of us, in God’s strength and His timing, we shall overtake!

“And David enquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all” (1 Samuel 30:8)

THOSE WHO OPERATE ON DIVINE SPEED WILL BREAK EARTHLY SPEED LIMITS; NOTHING CAN STOP THEM

Go ahead and overtake...God is working inside of you! Maranatha...He is coming so soon.
