How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God; this is the gate of heaven.

– Gen 28:17

A divine appointment is a moment in time orchestrated by God for you to encounter Him or a circumstance set up by the Holy Spirit. It is a miracle moment, much like when Jacob entered a Divine Appointment.

Sometimes, a divine appointment is unexpected. It’s only during or afterwards that you become aware of its significance. Jacob, lying on the hard ground at night, had a dream. He saw a staircase from Heaven to Earth, with angels travelling up and down. Above the stairs stood God Almighty, revealing Jacob’s identity, purpose, and destiny. When he woke, he realized, “This place is not what I thought.” He had stumbled into a Divine appointment.

Divine appointments often happen when you are at the end of your capability. It’s the grace of God, saying, “Where you are—this place, this moment, this season in your life: I am with you.” Enter into your Divine Appointment of complete restoration.

You may have ended up somewhere unexpected, in a dry or challenging place. God says, “This is your place of divine appointment.” Whether it’s in ministry, business, job, marriage, etc., that seems difficult and turbulent, your encounter with God can turn your place of distress into a place of wonder.

When God interrupts darkness with His glory, your heart will turn towards Him in worship. Anticipate and expect your divine appointment as God is giving you the grace to rename your location (Exodus 15:25) from bitterness to sweetness, from barrenness to fruitfulness, and from poverty to prosperity.

This is your place of divine appointment. God is in your location! May you enter into divine appointments for wonders from now until the end of this year with the oil of finishing in the name of Jesus.
