SUPERNATURAL TURNAROUND

Something is said to be ‘supernatural’ when it can be “attributed to some force beyond scientific understanding or the laws of nature” A turnaround on the other hand is “an abrupt or unexpected change, especially one that results in a more favourable situation”.

Supernatural turnaround, therefore, is a divine encounter where God reverses someone’s circumstances abruptly, turning the negative into positive, and shifting one’s thoughts and life to a new direction beyond any scientific explanation.

This exhortation is focussed on God’s ability to reverse negative circumstances in life. God does supernatural turnarounds. The Bible is filled with supernatural turnaround stories—in the lives of individuals, a group of people, a city, a nation, even a whole generation—all can experience a supernatural turnaround.

You could be in the place right now where you are positioned to be next-in-line for a supernatural turnaround in your life, health, finances, relationships, business, and lots more.

“When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream. Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them. The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.” (Psalm 126:1-3.The above scripture is a testimony from the Psalmist and other captives. The worst was in view and God gave them a turn-around. It was beyond their imagination. Did the children of Israel ever imagine that the Red Sea would be a path for their deliverance? That turnaround experience was sudden; they were amazed, and they were surprised. In fact, we can say that they were confused because it was too sudden, so it was like a dream to them—too good to be true; but it was true. A divine turn-around brings an overwhelming joy beyond description. When it comes, it certainly is like a dream. It is wonderful.

Another example can be found in 2 Kings 7:1-9, 18. This scripture is a testimony of God’s ability to reverse any negative experience in someone’s life. Here is a story of a nation going through terrible times of famine—food was nowhere to be found. The people not only resorted to feeding on doves’ dungs, but also some of the women started boiling their children to eat. Things where really bad for them. It was at the peak of this circumstance that Elisha “the Prophet” made a declaration that was not only mind-boggling but also seemed ridiculous. He said:

“Hear the word of the Lord, thus said the Lord, tomorrow about this time a seah of flour shall be sold for a shekel and two measures of barely for a shekel in the gate of Samaria” (2 Kings 7:1 NKJV).

The rest is history. The scripture says “And it came to pass as the man of God had spoken to the king…” (2 King 7:18). The tide changed for the entire nation of Samaria as they were suddenly lunched into unprecedented abundance. One moment, they were in a desperate situation, like many of us; the next moment, they were dwelling in an unimaginable miracle. Whenever you are down to nothing, God is up to something. Man’s extremity is God’s opportunity to magnify His name. This is what is called Supernatural Turnaround.

Similarly, in 2 Kings 7:3-10, there were these four lepers—outcast of the society, banished to live outside the gate because of their situation, neglected, and forgotten like many of us—but always remember that “when you are down to nothing, God is up to something”. The Bible tells us in verse 5 that at twilight (which is in the evening), they made a decision as to whether they should remain in their old position or move forward (as many of us also contemplate). They made a decision to move forward and by dawn a new thing began in their lives. Those who were outcasts became celebrities; those who had nothing, had so much that after their deposits were full they had to invite a whole nation to come and be a part of the blessing. I decree to as many readers of this article who have been neglected and forgotten like outcasts that there shall be a sudden turnaround in your life and you will become a blessing to those who thought you will amount to nothing in Jesus name.

Joseph is a classic example of how God can turn the greatest adversities in life into promotion. He was sold into slavery, and worse still, from slavery into the prison. Pharaoh dreamt one night, his sleep was troubled; in the morning Joseph was brought hastily from prison to become the prime minister of Egypt. Joseph endured a season for 13 years, and in 24 hours, he got a turnaround miracle! My God shall turn your demotion into promotion in Jesus name.

What do we say of David who was called from the field where he was looking after sheep and anointed to be the King of Israel? David was forgotten in the field when Samuel asked Jesse to present his children; all his seven brothers were presented, but David was not remembered. It is my sincere prayer that that though the world has forgotten you today, but God will remember you and He will send for you to come and occupy the position He has prepared for you in Jesus name.

In 2 Kings 25:29, we find the story of King Jehoiachin. For 37 years he was wearing prison garments. Just imagine a King wearing prison garments for 37 years! Maybe you are now in a lowly position compared to your past life, don’t worry, your story will soon change in the name of Jesus. In one day, the story of King Jehoiachin changed and the prison garments were changed by a royal order! He stopped living an ordinary life; the Bible says that bread was continuously placed before him all the days of his life with a continual allowance throughout the remaining days of his life. I pray for you, the reader of this article that whatever represents prison or evil garments on your body and in your life will soon be replaced by the garments of Royalty in Jesus name.

Another scriptural experience is that of Peter in Luke 5. This is a professional fisherman who came out to fish but toiled all through the night without catching a fish, only for the Master to show him where he should throw his net. This he did and his experience turned from frustration and emptiness to abundance and joy overwhelming. May you experience net-breaking breakthroughs and mouth-opening testimonies in Jesus name.

There was a woman with an issue of blood for 12 years, but when she heard about Jesus she knew the power of God could turn it around (Mark 5:25-34). There was a woman with a spirit of infirmity for 18 years, but the power of God was still able to turn it around (Luke 13:11-13). There was a man with a condition for 38 years and when Jesus saw him, He knew that he had been in that condition for a long time. Did Jesus give up on helping him because he was in that condition for so long? No, the power of God was still able to turn it around

Naaman in 2 Kings 5 is another example—a military commander who was a leper; but at the instruction of a man of God, he experienced a turnaround from being a leper to having the smooth and radiant flesh of a little child, as the scripture says:

“Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.” (2 King 5:14)

The list is endless! The scripture is filled with men and women who enjoyed God’s supernatural turnaround blessings in their various negative experiences. Some are in the class of Hezekiah who had his death sentence turned into increased life scan.“In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live. Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying, I beseech thee, O LORD, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore. And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying, Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the LORD. And I will add unto thy days fifteen years.” (2 King 20:1-6).

Beloved,See God as your turnaround-specialist. There are experts in business who come into a company and whip that company into shape, saving it from disaster and loss. THAT’S THE GOD WHO LIVES IN YOU. He turns mourning into rejoicing (Psalm 30:11); turns darkness to light; turns the curse into a blessing, etc.

Expectation is the womb of manifestation. Ephesians 3:20. Expect turn-arounds

KEYS TO SUPERNATURAL TURNAROUND

1. Violent Faith. Violet faith usually create a platform for divine attention which leads to supernatural tun around. Every situation is reversible by faith. The bible says if you belief you shall see the glory of God.

 We saw this in the woman with the issue of blood. She told herself “if only I could touch the hem of His garment, I will be made whole”—and that became her experience. Another example can be found in the four friends of the man that suffered from paralysis—they broke the roof of the house where Jesus was teaching so that they could get His attention—and their friend was healed! It takes a radical and violent faith like that to see God intervene with supernatural turnarounds.

2. Aggressive prayers: prayer is a divine prescription for every human affliction or unpleasant situations. A man of God once said ” a turn to God in prayer is what turns destiny around” it is never your time to experience turnaround until when you turn to God in prayer. Prayer changes stories and indeed destiny In the book of 1 Chronicles,A man called Jabez meaning sorrow activated the power of prayer by calling the God of Israel to turn his life around from sorrow to joy, from pain to gain and from curses to unimaginable blessings. Jabaz indeed experienced supernatural turnaround. Prayer works for the likes of Hannah 1samuel 1:18, Daniel, etc.

3. High praise: high praise is a convenant platform for supernatural turn around.Praise God makes God do the impossible in your situation and brings about turn around in terms of signs and wonders Exodus 15:11 – Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? Make praise a lifestyle; miracles will become common for you.You can praise your way out of penury into plenty, out of sickness into health, and out of smallness into greatness. E.g paul and silas, King Jehoshaphat and the people of Judah.

4.Engage the Scriptures. Find Scriptural references that promise the miracle you are believing God for, and obey the instructions therein. Psalm 138:2 says that God exalts His Word more than His name. And all the promises in His Word are yes, and amen! (2 Corinthians 1:20)

5. Obedience:: Obedience is the ultimate hallmark of a believer. The evidence of our belief is in our obedience to the injunctions and instructions of God, our Father. There would be no sense in saying you believe in God if you would not take His advice. If you have really handed yourself over to Him, then it must follow that you are trying to obey Him. Unfortunately, lots of Christians are shut out of their breakthrough simply because they wouldn’t obey.Again and again in the Bible, we see cases of common men being launched into the realm of supernatural turnaround by a simple act of obedience.. Peter. Yes, he was a professional fisher man. Yes, he understood the tips and tricks of fishing… But there came a night when he did all he knew to do but he caught nothing. Moments later, Jesus used his boat to preach and afterwards gave him an instruction which would sound foolish to any professional fisherman. Part of him didn’t think that Jesus’s instruction was worth following; the other part of him understood that “if he obeys, he doesn’t have anything to lose.” So in Luke 5:5, he said “Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless AT THY WORD, I will let down the net”

  Similarly,. At a wedding in Cana Galilee —the wine finished! Mary ran to Jesus to tell Him. Initially, Jesus was indifferent—but Mary wasn’t. She gave the servants an instruction that should, in fact, be our life-guiding principle. She said to them “…whatsoever he saith unto you, do it” (John 2:5). And because the servants obeyed, a better wine was provided in abundance, and joy filled the atmosphere.

6. Living a Consecrated Life. Joseph enjoyed God’s supernatural turnaround in due time because he had proven himself to be a consecrated believer. When Potiphar’s wife lured him to sleep with her, he said “how shall I do this great wickedness and sin against God?”

 7. Declare authoritatively. Demand a turnaround by commanding all obstacles to move out of the way. As a child of God, you are a king, and “Where the word of a king is, there is power” (Ecclesiastes 8:4).

In conclusion, understand that the God that wrought countless supernatural turnarounds in the Bible is still the same—yesterday, today and forever. He shall surely intervene in your matter, too as you begin to apply these principles. You are next-in-line for a supernatural turnaround in the name  of Jesus.
