TOPIC: Prophet Samuel’s Challenge To Israel (Seeds Of Destiny 3 March 2024)

SCRIPTURE: Behold, here I am: witness against me before the Lord, and before his anointed: whose ox have I taken? or whose ass have I taken? or whom have I defrauded? whom have I oppressed? or of whose hand have I received any bribe to blind mine eyes therewith? and I will restore it you. And they said, Thou hast not defrauded us, nor oppressed us, neither hast thou taken ought of any man’s hand. 1 Samuel 12:3, 4

 

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The boldness of your financial integrity guarantees the solidity of your future.

Seeds Of Destiny For Today 2024 MESSAGE:

In Scripture, we understand that Prophet Samuel was one prophet who was mightily used of God. He had such a strong prophetic accuracy that the Bible records that none of his words fell to the ground. This means, every word he spoke came to pass.

Prophet Samuel was the one who anointed King Saul and King David and brought them to limelight. He bore the burden of God and that of the nation of Israel in his time.

Now, one secret of Prophet Samuel was his upright living. Samuel was so holy and upright that he threw up a challenge to the whole congregation of Israel one day.

What was the challenge?

1 Samuel 12:3, 4, says:
Behold, here I am: witness against me before the Lord, and before his anointed: whose ox have I taken? or whose ass have I taken? or whom have I defrauded? whom have I oppressed? or of whose hand have I received any bribe to blind mine eyes therewith? and I will restore it you. And they said, Thou hast not defrauded us, nor oppressed us, neither hast thou taken ought of any man’s hand.

In essence, Samuel seemed to be challenging the whole assembly of the people of Israel that anyone among them who felt he had cheated him or her should openly walk forward and say it, but there was none.

What a challenge!
What integrity of life!
What a boldness and audacity of uprightness!
What a cleanliness and purity of life!

That was Prophet Samuel’s challenge to the children of Israel.
Like Prophet Samuel, the boldness of your integrity is the guarantee for the solidity of your future and destiny.

The boldness of your financial integrity guarantees the solidity of your future.
