Be Available And Willing For Inspiration

One of the things I do once I receive inspiration from God is that I suspend everything I was doing before the inspiration came and write down the inspiration. You need to see my countenance anytime I miss an inspiration, totally unappealing. Sometimes it's better to skip breakfast, lunch and dinner than to let an inspiration escape from my mind. I've sat down for six hours just to write everything God was inspiring within me. Many people have wondered how I've managed to write so much in a short time, well, it's because God knows I'm available to Him.

Does God know you're available to Him? I was heading to church one Sunday when I suddenly received an inspiration from God. He wanted me to write it within 10 minutes and post it to my platforms. I could almost tell that someone out there needed that message. I developed the inspiration within those 10 minutes and posted it. Before that day ended, I got a comment from someone who exclaimed that what I posted was her word. A week before the outburst of the discord on tithing in 2017, God inspired me to write a book titled "The Tithe is Not Enough". Many who read the book experienced great financial shifts in their lives.

Considering the depth that was deposited within that book, I knew I wasn't qualified to write a book like that. So, I had to ask God why He made me write a book like that. Surprisingly, He responded saying, "because you're available". Gift without availability won't take you far in life. You may have all the gifts of men, but if you make yourself unavailable, there'd be very little you can accomplish. One of the ways you can know a man who is available to be used by God is the position of his heart towards the things of God. Moses lived a comfortable life in Pharaoh's palace, yet he was uncomfortable all through his stay.

The comfort in the palace was uncomfortable for him because His heart was with God's people. His heart was constantly on the liberation of God's people. He advocated for them as much as he could, even till he accidentally killed an Egyptian guard. Though that incident made Moses run away from Egypt, but his heart didn't run away from the people of Israel. His life as a son of Pharaoh and his life as the runaway had no difference, his heart was out for God. That was how he was able to sense the burning bush. He wasn't the only one that walked through that path, but he was probably the only one whose heart was available for God to use.

Availability isn't necessarily the absence of work; it's the presence of a heart for the things of God. I can get really busy, but God knows I'm available for Him. And that's why He won't hesitate to tell me things He'd like to say to His people. Before now, I'd need to ask Him in prayers for what to write, but today, even before I ask, He speaks to me. Availability reduces your supplication time. There are those who are looking for God, but there are those who God goes to meet. Is it not in your Bible that God went down to Adam in the cool of the day to commune with him? God also branched to inform Abraham on His plan to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah.

Just imagine God coming to visit you. While some people are praying to God for jobs and business breakthroughs, God gave Adam a job by asking Him to name all the animals. And afterwards, he paid him with a wife. Adam didn't pray; he was just available. It's painful to know that many things we engage so much rigor to get only require an available heart. Matt 6:33 tells us to seek God's kingdom first, and every other thing shall be added to us. Believers should enjoy addition of things, not struggle for things.
