*TOPIC: BELIEVING GOD FOR THE MIRACULOUS.*(Series 2)

*Scripture Reading:* 2 King 7:1-2

*"Then Elisha said, “Hear the word of the Lord. Thus says the Lord, ‘Tomorrow about this time a measure of finely-milled flour will sell for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, at the gate of Samaria." Then the royal officer on whose arm the king leaned answered the man of God and said, “If the Lord should make windows in heaven [for the rain], could this thing take place?” Elisha said, “Behold, you will see it with your own eyes, but [because you doubt] you will not eat of it.”*(AMP)

Continuation from where I stopped yesterday. Out of the four types of Miracles named yesterday, I want to focus more on the provisional aspect. We found the account in 2 Kings 6 of when the Syrians had surrounded Samaria and cut off all its supplies, the people of the city were starving to death to a level of eating their children one after another. *In the midst of this crisis, Elisha said by the Spirit of God, "Tomorrow at this time, you can find anything you want."* In a miraculous act of provision, God used four lepers to plunder the enemy's camp and take everything they needed - silver, gold, food and clothing and the news spread to the town.

Jesus also began and ended His ministry on the earth with provisional miracles. At the wedding feast in Cana, He turned water into wine(John 2:1-11). Multiplying the loaves and the fish was a provisional miracle(Matthew 14:15-20). Jesus' last provision miracle before His ascension took place after He arose from the dead.

He was on the shore, watching Peter and some others fishing, when he called out to Peter, "Throw your net out the other side." When Peter did as he was told, his net caught enough fish(John 21:1-12). Divine intervention prospered Peter's business tremendously, causing him to recognize the Lord immediately.

I discovered that God always performs provisional miracles first, before He performs the physical miracles even right from Genesis. He always make a provision for His children at all time. And that's the reason why you will not end this year in shame because the Lord Jesus will make a way for you out of no way in Jesus Christ name. Amen! To be continue tomorrow morning by God's Grace. Good morning and do have a great day, peace.

*Prayer point:* Oh God of provisional Miracles, visit me and turn the situation around to favor me even at this present situation in Jesus Christ name. Amen!

Burna Boy responded to criticisms after reports emerged that Burkina Faso’s leader Captain Ibrahim Traoré rejected his proposal to hold a free concert for the West African nation.

Online reports last week indicated that Burna Boy planned to stage a free concert in Burkina Faso to demonstrate his goodwill. President Traoré reportedly turned down the offer by explaining Burkina Faso required focused attention instead of distractions.

Social media responses to the Grammy-winning artist were mixed after news broke because some users mocked him for what they considered a public snub.

Burna Boy took to his social media platform to confront his critics who showed disbelief at the negative reception his intentions received.

I declared at the free Burkina Faso show proposal and although many supported it some fools surprisingly launched unbelievable negative remarks which shocked me.

He directly attacked those who spoke ill of him saying they had no authority to judge his behaviors or motives.

Burna Boy responded by saying those people lack any right to mention his name since they only contribute to the world through stupid comments or talking into their cheap ring light and phone.

The artist defended his humanitarian and charitable achievements across Africa by stating he does not need to justify his chosen work to anyone.

Although I receive no personal benefit from others and owe nothing to anyone yet this has never stopped me from achieving great work. My integrity is unquestionable. If you said anything negative then burn in hell,” he added.
