HOW A LAST CAN SUPERNATURALLY BECOME FIRST ? – Apostle Yvan CASTANOU

How a Last Can Supernaturally Become First

Listen to me carefully: nothing in life is set in stone! The first ones today can become last, and the last ones, those no one notices, those whom everyone despises, can find themselves propelled to the top of the list by the very hand of God.

How is this possible? How does God take a person whose story seemed predetermined and place them in a position of influence, power, and impact? This divine mystery is revealed in Mark 10:28-31:

No one who has left house, brothers, sisters, father, mother, children, or fields for my sake and for the gospel, will fail to receive a hundred times as much… (Mark 10:28-31)

The truth is right there! God has a protocol to elevate those who choose to fully dedicate themselves to His cause. He has a method for changing positions and overturning rankings. If you are thirsty for radical change, for a divine repositioning, then get ready: God wants to take you from obscurity to light. Do you want to know how? Stay focused and let yourself be led by this revelation.

The Secret of Divine Elevation: Serving the Priority of God’s Government

Do you know why some people remain stagnant while others accelerate supernaturally? Because they have understood one essential thing: elevation comes from God, not men, and God lifts up those who dedicate themselves to His priorities!

If you want to see heaven open over your life, start discerning what the Father wants and align yourself accordingly.

Look at the example of earthly governments. When a state sets a national priority, all funding, all subsidies, all opportunities are poured in that direction. Those who discern these priorities and align with them become the beneficiaries of the government’s resources.

Companies that understood the world was shifting to electric vehicles became market leaders. While others were stuck in the old model, Tesla—a company that didn’t even exist in the automotive industry just a few years ago—became a reference ahead of giants like Renault and Nissan! Why? Because they adopted the government’s vision.

It’s the same with God! The heavenly government has one absolute priority: the salvation of souls and the strengthening of believers. And God funds, supports, propels, and elevates those who align with this priority.

In other words, if you want heaven to back you up, if you want divine resources to pursue you, if you want God’s light to illuminate your path, start making the salvation and strengthening of souls your personal mission.

Divine Rewards: A Hundredfold on Earth and in Eternity

Something must break within you today: God PAYS! He never leaves His workers without wages. The reason many people do not see divine blessing is because they are not activating the right keys.

…whoever has left because of me and the Gospel will receive a hundred times as much… (Mark 10:29-30)

Many read this passage without truly understanding it. They think it is symbolic, but no! It is a tangible promise.

Look around you: how many people have left their comfort to follow God and ended up ruined? No one!

But look at those who abandoned God for their own ambition—they always end up collapsing under the pressure of the world’s system.

Jesus does not only promise a reward in heaven, He speaks of TANGIBLE blessings on earth: houses, brothers, sisters, children, fields—all in abundance!

Make no mistake: there will be persecution. Jealous people will talk, they will criticize, but they will not be able to stop what God has decided to do in your life.

If you want to see the difference, start taking the affairs of the kingdom seriously.

Stop looking at your own comfort, engage fully in the salvation and strengthening of souls. It is within this mission that finances will pursue you, that divine connections will be added to you, and that divine opportunities will open before you.

God’s Strategy: The Temple and the Houses

Do you want to know why some churches collapse while others explode? Because there is divine wisdom for the expansion of the kingdom.

They were “every day devoted to meeting in the temple and in houses.” (Acts 2:46)

That’s the key! God has ordained that His Church be built upon two pillars: large gatherings in the temple and small meetings in homes.

This is not a human tactic; it is a divine decree!

Now look at your own life: are you just a Sunday consumer, or have you integrated God’s model? Impact families, these house churches, are the answer to establishing lasting growth.

How to Go from Last to First

Where do you stand today? Are you unnoticed, unknown, lost in the crowd? Rest assured, this will not last.

If you rise with the mindset of God’s servant, if you accept to pay the price, then the time has come for God to adjust your ranking.

The last will become first, and the first who neglected God’s will shall become obsolete.

Look at history! Names of simple believers, unknown evangelists, despised preachers at the start, were propelled into unimaginable spheres of influence.

Do you want to see the same thing happen in your life? STOP trying to be first by your own means, ALIGN YOURSELF with God’s plans!

Let’s Pray Together

Father, I refuse to be a spectator in a generation that is dying without You. Today, I choose to answer Your call and dedicate myself entirely to Your kingdom.
Lord, make me an instrument. Open my eyes to the souls around me and grant me wisdom and strategy to strengthen them and lead them to You.
Father, I believe in Your divine rewards. I will not do this for money, but I thank You in advance for the hundredfold You have promised to those who fully commit.
