Rising Above Your Roots To The Top

Text: Isaiah 6:1-5

This is a day to cry seriously unto the heavenlies. The process of self discovery may be very tough but it is rewarding; so that you do not become a round peg in a square hole.

In Isaiah 6, we read the story of Isaiah.

Isaiah 6:1-5 (KJV) says: “In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.”

For the first time, Isaiah saw himself, he knew who he was, and his life changed. He would have died in that place as a palace prophet, but eventually he became the messianic prophet, because of all books in the Old Testament, it is in the book of Isaiah you find the gospel of Jesus so clearly preached.

It is in that book you find “All we like sheep have gone astray, and we have turned every man to his own way”. It is in that book you find “For unto us a Son is born, unto us a Son is given…..” It is in that book you find “He himself born our infirmities…..” He was a messianic prophet but he would have died as a palace prophet.

Here’s a story of a young man called Isa. He was the youngest boy in his family. He grew up knowing troubles. He grew up not knowing what is called success. He noticed that he hated women right from his young age. This continued until he became 40 years.

Things were really rough. It was at this age that he came across a message like this and he prayed “Lord I want to know who I am, I want know what is going on in my life, I want to understand myself.” As he went out that day, he saw this big woman by the door with more than two breasts and they were so long and touching the ground.

He was scared and wanted to run away but the creature spoke and said “Isa, my husband.” He asked “Me your husband? I do not know you.” She said” go and ask your father.” Isa ran quickly to where the father was and told him what he saw. To his amazement, the father said “you saw her?” His father was very sad.

He said that all his days, he had been praying to see that woman who their grandfather talked to them about, that she was the goddess of the family, and that he had never seen her, but Isa was seeing her now. But then, Isa was in trouble.

When he started praying, he now recognised that the real Isa was married in the spirit realm to a wife with breasts touching the ground. He started crying for deliverance until breakthrough came. This is a day to cry to the heavens to discover who you are. It was after this revelation he began to discover himself.

Some breakthroughs will not come until you discover who you are. Sisters need to pray really hard here today because evil spirits have more than a common interest in women.

Any woman befriending the woman is making a huge mistake. War has been declared against the devil and the woman right from the book of Genesis. The devil cannot be the friend of any woman. He hates women with perfect hatred and demons can go to unimaginable extents to carry out their evil interest in women.

Satan targeted women in garden of Eden, but if you notice what God said, in the plan of redemption, it was the seed of the woman, not the man that would bruise the head of the serpent. So, any woman living a holy life gives Satan nightmares. Satan’s agenda is for women is to push them from pillar to post, push them around, make them prostitutes, to make them become useless.

I pray for all women today: if you have unconsciously or consciously formed a covenant with the devil, by the power in the blood of Jesus, let that covenant be broken, in the name of Jesus.

There is no greater discovery than the discovery of oneself. Once you discover yourself, you have made a very big discovery. It is possible to be born again, sanctified, spirit-filled and a pastor and still not know who you are. The most horrible form of ignorance is when a person is ignorant of himself.

Until you discover who you are, you can really never achieve your greatest goal. When two people who do not know who they are get married, there will be confusion. Many dead or living people by divine arithmetic never showed up.

They are there but really not there. They are present but absent. They arrived on earth but did not show up. And the enemy is very happy when a person is just living on earth but does not know why he is
