GOD will compel them!



"Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me. But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD, and went down to Joppa; and he found a ship going to
Tarshish: so he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with
them unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD" (Jonah 1:1-3).

The city of Nineveh was in problem. She had sinned greatly and God was angry. The wrath of God was advancing. Judgment was
about to fall. But even so, God was merciful, not willing that any should perish, but
that all should come to repentance and be saved. And so, He sent a deliverer to bring the people a message of hope, his name, prophet Jonah. The plan was that when the Ninevites hear the message from God,
they turn from their evil ways and God would bless rather than punish them.
But God's messenger ordained to bring help to Nineveh turned the other way and ran away from the assignment. Many times, we
experience delayed response to our prayers, not because God is unwilling to
answer us but because the human agents that should be involved refuse to align themselves with God’s programme or agenda.
Here, God was ready to help the Ninevites, but the man God considered fit for the job ran away.
I pray and prophesy, my God shall discipline every reluctant messenger assigned to bring you help. In the same way that God visited Jonah, the helper of your joy that is dragging his feet shall be heavily
visited today. Just as God compelled Jonah to deliver to Nineveh, so shall the Lord compel the helpers of your destiny to deliver without further delay in Jesus Christ's name. The angel of God shall push
those that needs to be pushed, pull those who needs pulling, and force those who must be forced to ensure that the help you
require is delivered. I decree that your Jonah shall be made to abandon the
voyage to Tarshish and hurry to you heaven sent assistance.
But I must warn you. As you say "Amen" with excitement, you must understand that the word of God is a double edged sword;
it will cut both ways. This means that if you also have been sent to bless another person and you are delaying to deliver for whatever reason, get ready to be disciplined by God. For you never can tell, maybe that other person might also be reading this message or a similar message, and is perhaps saying a more passionate "Amen", louder and better than yours!
