OUR DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL BOOKLET FOR CHAMPIONS
DATE: WEDNESDAY 4TH MARCH, 2020
TOPIC: WHY STORMS ARE NAMED AFTER PEOPLE
BASIC SCRIPTURE: (DANIEL 6:3-17)
I have wondered why terrible storms are named after men and women! The National Weather Service was mimicking the habit of naval meteorologists, who named the storms after women, much as ships at sea were traditionally named for women.
In 1978–1979, the system was revised again to include both female and male hurricane names. THAT MEANS STORMS ARE NAMED AFTER PEOPLE! Wow! We have past, terrible storms named KATRINA, BARRY, GAJA, FANI, DENNIS, ODISHA, IRMA, etc.
The International National Hurricane Center has released names of 2020 stormsas Arthur, Bertha, Cristobal, Dolly, Edouard, Fay, Gonzalo, Hanna, Isaias, Josephine, Kyle, Laura, Marco, Nana, Omar, Paulette, Rene, Sally, Teddy, Vicky and Wilfred.
Ah! I can even see Josephine, Laura, Vicky, Isaiah, Nana, etc, there! Watch out for these names this year! But what the Holy Ghost wants you to know is that INDEED, MOST OF THE STORMS YOU WILL ENCOUNTER WILL COME FROM PEOPLE!
No wonder William Blake opined: “It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend.” Joseph’s brothers were the cause of his storms! King Saul pursued David all through most of his youthful days! Men killed Jesus!
Judas betrayed Him! Abraham was scorned by LOT! Moses was ENVIED by Miriam. The friends of Daniel were the reason for his storms. Indeed, a man’s enemies are not plants or animals! A man’s enemies are members of his own house! Watch and pray this year! Trust nobody!
I remember Caitlyn Siehl: “Do not fall in love with people like me. I will take you to museums, and parks, and monuments, and kiss you in every beautiful place, so that you can never go back to them without tasting me like blood in your mouth.
I will destroy you in the most beautiful way possible.
And when I leave you will finally understand why storms are named after people.” Did you get that? Storms are named after people! People are desperately wicked! The heart of man is bloody! Those you trust will betray you! Refuse to be bitter or scared as you pray that in 2020, you will meet men and women who will be SHELTERS against the STORMS OF LIFE!
BEST EASTER GIFT: Help a Soul daily! Give out the next ADULT ODM and CHILDREN ODM editions as SPECIAL Easter gifts.
ODM WHEREVER YOU GO! ODM MOBILE APP IS FINALLY OUT! It contains 8 Languages! Wow!
PRAYER POINTS: Take any song of worship as led.
1. Pray over today’s word as led now.
2. I shall not put my eyes on men this year! Decree that in 2020, you will not be a victim of men.
3. Lord, shake away men or women who will cause irreversible storms for my life, family and ministry.
4. Lord, send me STORM SHELTERS this year. Connect me to unforgettable helpers in Jesus name.
5. Pray about today seriously as led now.
