OUR DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL BOOKLET FOR CHAMPIONS
DATE: TUESDAY 11TH FEBRUARY, 2020
TOPIC: THE CONQUERED ELEPHANTS! I CANNOT BE CAGED!
BASIC SCRIPTURE: (JOSHUA 14:1-15)
There is the popular story of the elephants which were only tied by little rope around their legs that was tied to a stake in the ground. These animals could easily pull out the stake and trample on everyone in the crowd.
But shockingly, this never happened. The elephants were as calm as frozen sea in winter! I was so amazed by this and had to find out why they did not escape. The trainer in charge of handling these elephants explained why these huge elephants looked tamed and conquered:
“When they are young, we tie a chain around their legs and attach it to a concrete block that was anchored deep into the ground and for the first few months, they will struggle and struggle to get loose from the chain. Over the next few months of pulling on the chain, they realize it is useless because they are never going to get free.
As soon as the elephant gives up the struggle, we then replace it with just a normal cord (rope) tied to the stake. At that point, the elephants assume they are still being held by the mighty chain and they will not attempt to escape.” Wow! Now do the elephants have the ability to break loose and be free? Of course, they can! You and I know that they can be free, but the elephants don’t know!
Amazing! Most people are just like these elephants they have been told through the battles of life and through their past experiences that there are things they could do and there are things they could not do! In short, LIFE HAS CREATED LIMITS FOR THOUSANDS! But the Holy Ghost wants you to know that YOU ARE BIGGER THAN YOU ARE!
Yes! THERE ARE HIDDEN TALENTS IN YOU YET TO BE DISCOVERED! YOU ARE LIKE A SLEEPING GIANT! YOU HAVE ABILITIES that can still shake this world because there is a HIDDEN HERO in you!
Through today’s devotional, command that every rope or EXCUSE, challenging your ELEVATION, must dry up!
Man up and be bold! Dare more than you have ever done! Age cannot stop you! Like CALEB, dream bigger dreams at your age! DON'T DIE BEFORE YOU DIE! Listen: The HELL you make for yourself is still HELL!

Song 1: When The Morning Comes
1. Trials dark on ev’ry hand,
and we cannot understand
All the ways that God would lead us
To that blessed Promised Land;
But He’ll guide us with His eye,
and we’ll follow till we die;
We will understand it better by and by.
Refrain:
By and by when the morning comes,
When the saints of God are gathered home,
We will tell the story how we’ve overcome;
We will understand it better by and by.
2. Oft our cherished plans have failed,
disappointments have prevailed,
and we’ve wandered in the darkness,
Heavy-hearted and alone;
But we’re trusting in the Lord,
and according to His Word,
We will understand it better by and by.
3. Temptations, hidden snares
often take us unawares.
And our hearts are made to bleed
for some thoughtless word or deed
And we wonder why the test
when we try to do our best,
We will understand it better by and by
