Take a time of separation, a quiet time for you and for God.
by Pastor Emeka Ogaraku (Akaraka)
Abram and Lot Separate
There is a time of separation, a quiet time for you and for God. There is a time of prayer and
meditation. There is a time for the separation between your soul and your spirit and even
between bones and marrow. The separation of Lot and Abraham was one of the human
weights we usually carry which hinders the receipt of Gods vision and massage. Our focus is
easily manned and distracted with the human wait of wife, husband, children and the societal
desires that sometimes we lose completely our focus; but today, as you are reading this little
piece, you are being freed from the course of the flesh. Your spirit takes up the helm of your
affair. Amen. Shout Hallelujah.
There is a season for sowing seeds, planting and weeding and there is a time of harvest and
reaping and earning time. There is a time for warfare and fasting and supplication and a time
of yielding, praise and warship Genesis 13:1-18 (NIV)
Genesis 13: 1-18
Abram and Lot Separate
Genesis 13: 1-18---1 So Abram went up from Egypt to the Negev, with his wife and
everything he had, and Lot went with him. 2 Abram had become very wealthy in livestock and
in silver and gold. 3 From the Negev he went from place to place until he came to Bethel, to
the place between Bethel and Ai where his tent had been earlier 4 and where he had first built
an altar. There Abram called on the name of the LORD. 5 Now Lot, who was moving about
with Abram, also had flocks and herds and tents. 6 But the land could not support them while
they stayed together, for their possessions were so great that they were not able to stay
together. 7 And quarreling arose between Abram's herdsmen and the herdsmen of Lot. The
Canaanites and Perizzites were also living in the land at that time. 8 So Abram said to Lot,
"Let's not have any quarreling between you and me, or between your herdsmen and mine, for
we are brothers. 9 Is not the whole land before you? Let's part company. If you go to the left,
I'll go to the right; if you go to the right, I'll go to the left." 10 Lot looked up and saw that the
whole plain of the Jordan was well watered, like the garden of the LORD, like the land of
Egypt, toward Zoar. (This was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.) 11 So Lot
chose for himself the whole plain of the Jordan and set out toward the east. The two men
parted company: 12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, while Lot lived among the cities of the
plain and pitched his tents near Sodom. 13 Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were
sinning greatly against the LORD. 14 The LORD said to Abram after Lot had parted from him,
"Lift up your eyes from where you are and look north and south, east and west. 15 All the land
that you see I will give to you and your offspring forever. 16 I will make your offspring like
the dust of the earth, so that if anyone could count the dust, then your offspring could be
counted. 17 Go, walk through the length and breadth of the land, for I am giving it to you." 18
So Abram moved his tents and went to live near the great trees of Mamre at Hebron, where he
built an altar to the LORD.
To receive you have to do some things:
1. There Abram called on the name of the LORD; “Those who know the Lord shall be
strong and do great exploits”
2. But the land could not support them while they stayed together, for their possessions
were so great that they were not able to stay together.
3. quarreling arose between Abram's herdsmen and the herdsmen of Lot: quarrelling is
not a problem it is only a sign that you need a new horizon
4. Is not the whole land before you? Let's part company: In Gods vine yard, there are
limitless opportunities, look up and see the stars and the sand shores, uncountable or.
5. Let's part company: Part peacefully and comfortably; let’s part company. If you go to
the left, I'll go to the right; if you go to the right, I'll go to the left."
6. So Lot chose for himself the whole plain of the Jordan and set out toward the east :Do
not be greedy and take a better part of the land
7. Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD:
where ever there is plenty, fruitfulness, prosperity, there are enemies, remember the
Garden of Eden.
8. "Lift up your eyes from where you are and look north and south, east and west. 15 All
the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring forever: humble and
submissive choice in the honour of God and peace are always rewarded by God
9. Go, walk through the length and breadth of the land, for I am giving it to you." All
intentional lose for the name of God are paid for judiciously and plentifully
The healthy time of separation is the time of the spiritual explosion of gifts: Prophetic
Connection, Personal Life revival Spiritual insight and anointing, a time of Personal
counsel/Advisory.
A Time of separation connects you to your awaiting MIRACLE; To your DESTINY; To your
awaiting fulfillment, To your awaiting revived FUTURE; To your awaiting GRACE.
May it be so in your live and our lives? Amen. by Pastor Emeka Ogaraku (Akaraka)
