“The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley…” (Ezekiel 37: 1)That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.The hand of the Lord was upon Ezekiel, and it carried him in the Spirit of the Lord, and set him down in the midst of a valley. The hand of the Lord did not carelessly throw Ezekiel into the valley; the hand of the Lord set him down. The word ‘set’ means ‘to keep in a specified position’. So the hand of the Lord positioned Ezekiel where He wanted Ezekiel to be. The Lord strategically positioned Ezekiel.Friend, hear me as I hear the Lord: the time for your strategic positioning has come. The Lord positions you strategically in your generation. The Lord positions you upon the mountain of relevance and influence. The Lord positions you in the place of visibility. The Lord positions you in the realm of power and glory. The Lord positions you in the place where the destinies of men are decided.Ezekiel was kept in a position that helped him to behold the dry bones in the valley. He was kept in a position that helped him to exercise influence whilst in the valley. Hear me as I hear the Lord: you are positioned in the place where you can exercise influence and power. God is planting your feet in places that will help you to fulfill your destiny. God is positioning you in the place where your greatness will find expression.Every attack against the position where God has placed you, today, I decree, let the attacks by broken to pieces. Let every enemy that is struggling for your position be swept away. Let every conspiracy against your strategic positioning be scattered by the power of God. Let every satanic plot to displace you from where God has placed you, be brought to nothing.God is positioning you where you will be seen and favoured; God is positioning you where you will not be overlooked.Psalm 113: 7-8 says: “7. He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill; 8. That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.”Declare With Me: I am strategically positioned; I will not be displaced in destiny, in Jesus’ name!Follow on Instagram @jerry_ezeFollow on Twitter @jerrystreams
