Psalms_118-24: This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it

We ought to give one full day

To God, the good and kind

Other days bring the tear drops

Thou wipes the tears away

Thou art a day of gladness

I love thy happy morn.

Hallowed Day and Holy

There is no work today

We will suspend our labour

Until tomorrow’s day

How beautiful and how bright

Thou blessed day of rest

Other days speak of troubles

But thou give hope of rest.

Hallowed Day and Holy

Hear how the Church bell says

Give one day to thy Maker

Who gave to you six days,

We shall take leave of labour

To go and worship there

Both we and all our dear friends

On to the house of prayer.

Hallowed Day and Holy

Thy hour delights me so

A taste of heaven you give us

Like that eternal rest

Lord. let me be partaker

Of rest beyond the grave

To sing and serve Thee ever

With all Thy saints above

The Lord’s own hallowed day of

rest

O day most beautiful and

bright:

A day given to us by God

For us, a day to rest therein.

Six days He provided for us

To do all that we have to do;

The seventh day He set aside,

It is God’s hallowed day of rest.

Let us forsake our vain pursuits

Our daily duties for six days,

Our work today, let hallowed be,

Because the day belongs to

God.

Strength from above enerves us well

For service in the house of God;

Let us sing a joyful anthem,

On the Lord’s day; this early morn.

Very early in the morning

On the Lord’s hallowed day of rest

Let us raise a joyful chorus

And let us lift our hearts to pray

May The Grace The Lord Jesus Christ, And The Love Of God, And The Fellowship Of The Holy Spirit Be With You All. Amen!

Depend Absolutely On God Knowing That Without Him You Can Do Nothing

Posted on May 25, 2015 by Prayer

Psalms_23-5: Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

“….As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.”

1 Kings 17:1 (KJV)

By the declaration of one mortal man, there was no rain, no abundance and no prosperity. And there was famine all over the land. But Elijah’s case was different. Although there was famine in the land, it was minus Elijah. He was sustained by a raven that brought him bread and meat daily until the brook dried up. That is the God you serve!

When you are connected to El-Shaddai, you cannot be stranded. He is the All Sufficient One. Even when the brook eventually dried up God moved His servant Elijah to Zarephath to be sustained by a poor widow. God demonstrated once again that He is the All Sufficient One. In the very place where there was scarcity, He brought abundance.

One of the decisions you must take as a believer is to get your priorities right. First and foremost learn to depend absolutely on God. We live in a time when everything is failing. There is practically nothing you can rely on today. Money is failing! Human projections and postulations are failing. You must, therefore, focus totally and depend absolutely on God knowing that without Him you can do nothing. You need to stop trying to make things happen by yourself or look up to other people to fix things for you. Understand that it is only what God does, that will last.

I therefore challenge you not only to know this multi-faceted God for yourself but to ensure you stay connected to Him. This is vitally important if you must experience the glory that is to come. Beloved, the scriptures must be fulfilled, so understand that it will get darker in the world but God does not expect you to get confused or caught unguarded. Yes it will get darker in the world but be assured that God will throw His weight behind those who trust in Him.

Stand Hot And On Fire For God

Posted on May 25, 2015 by Prayer

Ephesians_2-8: For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

“By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went”.

Hebrews 11:8 (KJV)

Have you ever wondered why Abraham walked with God in a way no other person did? No doubt, Abraham caught a revelation that this God was different from all the other little gods he was used to. Abraham must have asked himself; why would a Holy God choose to call me out of an idolatrous background? Don’t forget that it was God who initiated the move. It was God’s idea from the very beginning.

Beloved, it is not about what you do or about your love for God. It is really knowing the love of God for you, which He demonstrated in Christ. The love of God to us is so deep that many people have not come to terms with it. That is why there is a lot of struggle. Think of it. If you understand the love that stooped so low when you were nothing and picked you up. The love that reached out to you even when you did not know it existed. When you realize how much God loves you like Abraham realised, the struggle comes to an end. The song writer said it is so high, I can’t get over it, so deep, I can’t get under it, so wide I can’t get around it, Oh wonderful love. When you comprehend just about 10% of this love, you will realise how much God is willing to do for you, and you will enter into His rest. Your assignment is to walk in His love and know that He will take care of all that concerns you.

Let me, however, add that the fact that God has spoken to you about a greater dimension of His glory does not mean the devil will fall down and play dead. No! He will attempt to contradict what God said through contrary situations and challenges. But you must stand on the word. Resist him and he will flee from you. Don’t lose faith. Stand hot and on fire for God. Embrace commitment over convenience. Let the devil know that you are not slowing down neither are you giving in. Stand firm and see the salvation of God.

I declare that you will not remain where you have always been because a change is coming to you. You will break loose from everything that had hitherto hindered you. Your rising begins now! You will win in the competitions of life. Head or tail you cannot lose.

When last did God come down to see what you are building?

Posted on May 25, 2015 by Prayer

Hebrews_11-6: But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him

“And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded”.

Genesis 11:4-5 (KJV)

In Genesis 11, a group of people came together and decided to build a tower that would reach unto heaven and they began to build. God had to come down to look at the tower. What they were building was so significant and so powerful that it caught God’s attention. And God said something very interesting, “Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. When last did God come down to see what you are building. This people were building a city and a tower and they desired that it would reach unto heaven. Heaven stood at attention and said look lets go and see what they are up to.

When last did you build something or were engaged in anything that heaven had to stop and say look lets go and check that guy out. When last did you sing or pray or give that it caught heaven’s attention. It is not every praying that catches heavens attention. It is not every singing that catches heaven’s attention. And it is not every giving that catches heaven’s attention. It is not every sacrifice and not every commitment. There are commitments and there are commitments. There is giving and there is giving. There is singing and there is singing.

Child of God, when last were you involved in anything that heaven had to stop? Heaven stopped for these men. You too can catch heaven’s attention today. Set you mind on Christ. Set your mind on the Word. Imagine great things. Accomplish great things. I declare to you that your effort will catch heaven’s attention today. Heaven will stand still for you and you will rejoice in Jesus name.

You Are A Product Of Your Thought Pattern. What you continually think on will eventually manifest. It is just a matter of time.

Posted on May 25, 2015 by Prayer

Jeremiah_29-11: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end

“And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do”.

Genesis 11:6 (KJV)

What type of mind do you have? The bible tells us in the book of Proverbs 23:7, that as a man thinketh in his heart so is he. In other words, you are a product of your thought pattern. You cannot go above your thought pattern. If you believe in your thinking that you cannot, you will not. If you believe in your thought pattern that things are working against you, then that’s what will happen to you and that’s what that scripture is saying.

If you believe you will die a poor man that is what will happen to you. If you believe you will not get married and that it is too late for you; that is what is going to happen. If you believe in your mind that you are not going to have a baby, you will go without a baby. Because as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. What you continually think on will eventually manifest. It is just a matter of time.

In Genesis 11, a group of people came together and decided to build a tower God had to come down to look at the tower. What they were building was so significant and so powerful that it caught God’s attention (vs 5). And God said something very interesting which also applies to us. “and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do (Vs 6). God himself is saying that what they have imagined to do; they cannot be stopped. What they have agreed that they want to do and are single minded about; nothing can stop them. God himself had to stop them otherwise they would have done it. Why? As a man thinketh in his heart so is he.

The greatest thing that should happen to you after your salvation is for you to have a renewed mind. Your mind has to be renewed. You must develop the mind of Christ. The mind of the anointed one and His anointing. The problem of majority of people in the church is that they are saved but carrying the mind of the world. Your ability to float and stand above the challenges of life is predicated on what you do with your mind. You can be saved, be a candidate of heaven but still live a defeated life here on earth. So many church folks have been defeated because they refused to develop the mind of Christ.

Get in the Word today. Stay in the Word and develop the mind of Christ and you will watch every mountain bow before you in Jesus name.

Keep Running YOUR RACE. God is going to surprise the world.

Posted on May 25, 2015 by Prayer

Isaiah_41-13-1: For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee

“And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward:”

Exodus 14:15 (KJV)

Hebrews_4-16: Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. .God’s Throne Of Grace

Looking back is a mark of defeat. When you look up God himself will show you His salvation. When you look ahead of you, you will move towards your goal and you will realise your destiny. God told Abraham, Look up from where you are. Do not bother about the situation you are in. Look northward, southward, eastward, westward. As far as your eyes can see will I give to you. There is so much in the land that you are looking at. Lot may have taken what looks better but let me tell you there is so much underground.

Psalms_28-7: The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

Do you know that the same land that Abraham took is the present Saudi Arabia today with all the wealth therein? As at that time there was no visible oil wells there. But God who gave it saw beyond the sand he knew there were wells there. You are loaded. Go forward! Stop looking behind. There is nothing behind. Move ahead. Move on. They shut the door against you, go forward. Someone disappointed you, go forward. I have not seen a person who is involved in a race looking back and running at the same time who will get there first. Keep running, that’s what God said.

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. (Psalms 1:1-3). You see when you became a child of God you were automatically born into royalty there are things that are automatically yours by virtue of the seed you carry. They are yours.

God is going to surprise the world. The last time I read my bible it says unto principalities and powers will be made known by the church the manifold wisdom of God (Ephesians 3:10). God is going to demonstrate his wisdom through the church. That is why the world is getting darker. That is why they are running ahead and we seem to be behind. Get ready. Time is going to be compressed and you will overtake them. A little that you will do would produce plenty, just a little effort. You will break-forth to the left, break-forth to the right; break-forth to the front and expand in every area.

Is It Lawful For Someone To Get Married To His Or Her Cousin?

Posted on May 25, 2015 by Prayer

Is It Lawful For Someone To Get Married To His Or Her Cousin?

A Fan of mine sent in this question and wants me to answer him with Bible references. And I am throwing it to the whole world. Please is it lawful for someone to get married to his or her cousin. He is in a dilemma, please let us help him out.

God Bless You As You Do So, In Christ Jesus! Amen!

Is It Lawful For Someone To Get Married To His Or Her Cousin?

Biblical Concept On Marriage

Calvary greetings to you and your family in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. I’m a great fan of you. I love what you do and I pray for more grace of God in your life and the life of your family. Please I have a question is it Lawful for someone to get married to his or her cousin. The relationship is very distant (the grandfather of the Woman is a younger brother to the man’s Grandmother and the father of the man is a cousin to the father of the woman i.e 1st cousin While the children of the first cousin are the once that intend to get married) please I really need a clear answer to this question because there are examples of people that were married from their family. Eleazar’s daughters each married first cousins, as they were instructed ( 1 Chronicles 23:22).

See below

Forbidden Marriages Scripture

Between parents and children –Leviticus 18:7-8

Between stepparents and stepchildren- Leviticus 18:8, 17

With your paternal or maternal aunt-Leviticus 18:12-13

With your uncle or aunt –Leviticus 18:14

Between brother and sister and half-brother and half-sister-Leviticus 18:9

Between stepbrothers and stepsisters-Leviticus 18:11

With your daughter-in-law –Leviticus 18:15

With your sister-in-law –Leviticus 18:16

With your granddaughter –Leviticus 18:10

With your step-granddaughter –Leviticus 18:17

However, it’s important to remember that many laws do condemn this type of marriage and Christians are commanded to “Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well. For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men” (1 Peter 2:13-15, See also Romans 13:1-2). Please give biblical evidence of your answer.

Thanks

Yours Fan

God Is Committed To Bringing To Pass Every Promise He Has Made Concerning You. No One Has Ever Served God And Gone Away Empty Handed

Posted on May 24, 2015 by Prayer

Hebrews_6-10: For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister, God Cares

“Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)”

Hebrews 10:23 (KJV)

I know that you may still have unanswered questions in your heart about why this and that thing has not happened yet, but I want to remind you that the God you serve is still faithful, just and righteous. The scriptures in Psalms 36:6 declare that His righteousness is like the great mountains which cannot be moved. God is committed to bringing to pass every promise He has made concerning you. You can indeed stake your life on what He has said and not see shame. No one has ever served God and gone away empty handed. Men may have laughed at you, mocked or ridiculed you but I encourage you to hang in there because it is the dawn of a new day. I encourage you to expect great things to happen to you. Remember that expectation is the mother of miracles, so don’t cancel yourself out. It may be tough out there in the world, but for you it will be different. You may not know how or when, but I can assure you that He will do it in your life.

The last time I checked the scriptures, I saw that Esther, though, a slave girl, rose to the position of a queen in a foreign country. Think about it! It had never happened before. It was a new thing. God was at work in her life. Grace was speaking for her and the king had no choice than to choose her from among the whole lot. That same grace will single you out for favour. The scripture also tells us that David, though an ordinary shepherd boy was catapulted by the grace of God to the throne of Israel. It had never happened before for the last child in a family to ascend to the throne. What is that saying to you? Understand that God can turn around your situation overnight. It may never have happened in your family before, but that is what makes Him God. David was the least in his family but when it comes to God, He is at liberty to bless whom He chooses to bless.

Everyone around you may be failing, but that is not your portion. You are different! Beloved, you have heard the testimonies of others; let me also assure you that we will hear yours also.

Your Morning Of Joy Has Come. The Lord Has Chosen To Remember You. Get Set For Your Miracle Because It Shall Surely Come

Posted on May 24, 2015 by Prayer

Proverbs_10-22: The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it

“Therefore thy gates shall be open continually they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring unto thee the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought.”

Isaiah 60:11 (KJV)

Beloved, oftentimes we feel that God is too slow in coming through with His word. Many times we even feel God does not bother about how we feel, let alone do something about our situation. The result is that we cancel ourselves out from ever receiving from Him. Today, I want to give you an assurance from God’s word that He is still committed to bringing to pass every word He has spoken concerning your life. His word to you today is that your gates shall be open continually. Gates represent the place of authority where far reaching decisions are taken. Gates also represent access to and from a city. For as long as the gates to a city are open, you can be sure that socio-economic activities would never cease. In like manner understand that for as long as your gates are open, the forces {substance, resources, wealth, tribute and allegiance} of the Gentiles and their kings would come to you in Jesus name.

Yes, it may appear long, but like the Psalmist said, weeping may endure through the night but joy comes in the morning. Your morning of joy has come. The Lord has chosen to remember you. Get set for your miracle because it shall surely come. The Gentiles and the sons of all those that afflicted you, shall come bowing down before you. Your gates have been thrown open. So get ready for you shall be sustained with the riches from afar. You will no longer work like an elephant and eat like an ant. There shall be no more empty barrel for you. The days of barely making it are over in your life. The Lord your God will increase you and you will possess the West and the South.

Child of God, get ready for wealth transfer; for you will suck the milk of the gentiles and you will suck the breast of kings. The miracles that hitherto looked impossible are about to become the order of the day in your life. Indeed, those things that you have put on the shelf and termed impossible, are the very things that God would bring to pass that you might know that He is God. Every desire of your heart shall be granted. You will not be denied. I challenge you today to believe God for the impossible. God is not a man to lie neither is He the son of man to repent. What He has said He would do in your life will surely come to pass.

How Much Do You Love God? How Much Are You Willing To Sacrifice Just To Show You Love Him? God Is Calling Every Believer To A Life Of Sacrifice

Posted on May 24, 2015 by Prayer

Matthew_22-37-3: Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind

“He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.”

John 21:16 (KJV)

The kingdom of God is not a game of convenience think of it. Somebody paid the price with His own blood. It is not something you play with or handle with kid’s gloves. It is serious business. God is calling every believer to a life of sacrifice. I challenge you today to go out of your way to serve God with all your heart, whether it is convenient or not. He deserves the best because He gave you His best; JESUS. The question you should ask yourself sincerely is; how much do I really love Him?

Remember that the scriptures say in John 3:16 “for God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son.” Child of God, there is no way you can demonstrate love without giving something. When God was to show us how much he loved us, He gave His only Son to die for our sins. Thank God for this great love. Otherwise, where would you be today? In the same way, God wants you to spread His love to the world. If you truly love Jesus, then show it. Show it in your service to Him. Show it in evangelism. Show it as you lead your group. Show it in your relationship with your fellow members. Many times we pay lip serve to loving God. We claim to love God but we do not show His love to those around us. You cannot say you love God, if you do not show His love to your world.

Think of it! When last did you go through your wardrobe to look for very good clothes to bless someone with? When last did you enter a boutique to get a gift for someone who cannot afford it? When the festive seasons are approaching have you ever thought of how to ensure a family has a meal on their table? Are you just consumed with yourself, me, myself and I? Your love for God is also evident in your worship. When we talk about worship, I am not talking about singing slowly. The quality of your worship in songs, in offerings, in tithes all goes to show how much you love God. You cannot claim to love God and keep your money away from Him. No, your love for God must be total.

I encourage you to take a moment and think about the question today: how much do you love God? How much are you willing to sacrifice just to show you love Him? If there are areas that indict you, make amends today and love Him totally and completely. Let God depend on you in season and out of season. As you do that, He will certainly come through for you. I bless you.

God Does Not Want Fair Weather Christians

Posted on May 24, 2015 by Prayer

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends

“… Neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the LORD my God of that which doth cost me nothing…”

2 Samuel 24:24 (KJV)

As we climax the age you would also begin to observe that the love for self would gradually increase to the extent that people would slow down in their commitment to the things of God. Today I want to ask you a few questions. Please be very honest with yourself. What is your driving force for service to God? Is it convenience or conviction? Can God truly depend on you to serve Him whether it is convenient or not?

Some people serve God only when it is convenient. In other words, they say to themselves; now that I have a spouse, child, or dream job, I can now serve God. On the other hand, once it is no longer convenient, I stop serving God. When everything is working well and on target, I will serve God. I will serve God when the going is good. I will serve God as long as the testimonies keep rolling in. I call such people fair weather- Christians.

There is another group of fair weather Christians who serve God just to solve a challenge in their lives. When praying for a life-partner, a job, a child or a business breakthrough, they are ready to do anything, even keep vigils every single night in a week. But the moment they get the answer, off they go. Is it not an irony that the blessing they were praying for becomes the reason why they are no longer available to God? You hear things like: it is because of the demands of the job or the child cries ever so often so I cannot leave him/her in the house alone, so I stay back. Or worse still you hear those in business tell you how the business meetings they scheduled clashed with the assignment that they have in church and guess which one gives way; the church.

Beloved, if you are in this category, I come today to encourage you to make a U-turn for the better. God does not want fair-weather Christians. You are either for Him or against Him. You cannot sit on the fence. You either serve God totally and unreservedly or you forget it. Learn from David. He got an offer to sacrifice to God but he looked at the offer and said, “I will not offer to God that which will cost me nothing“. Beloved, your service to God must go beyond convenience; or else it is not acceptable.

God Is Able To Do Exceedingly Abundantly Above All For You. Trust In Him! He Has Never Failed, And He Will Not Fail Now

Posted on May 24, 2015 by Prayer

“And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.”

I kings 17:13 (KJV)

2-Timothy_1-7-1: For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind

Oftentimes, believers refuse to go the extra mile because of the fear of tomorrow. We are not too sure if God will come to our rescue when we need Him most, and so we hold back what we know we should give. The fear of giving her last and not having anything left to fall back on almost made the widow of Zarephath to hold back. Beloved, you need to understand that in the days we live in, except God helps you, the economy of the nation cannot sustain you. You need to walk in the revelation that if God does not keep you, your bank account certainly cannot keep you. You operate by the economy of Heaven and not by the economy of the world. God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all for you. Trust in Him! He has never failed, and He will not fail now.

Another interesting feature of the story of the widow in 1 King 17 is the fact that the devil came around to steal her joy. The woman’s only son fell ill and died. The widow cried out and said, “What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? Art thou come unto me to call my sins to remembrance and to slay my son?” You know that is exactly how we react when we meet with challenges. The devil jumps on your shoulder and lies to you that God has forsaken you in spite of all your giving and sacrifice. He suggests to you that you should hold back after-all you are not the only person in church. Beloved, that is the voice of the enemy and you must refuse to hold back. In verse 19, the Prophet of God said to the widow: “give me thy son”. And he took the boy from her, carried him into a loft where he abode and laid him upon his own bed and prayed. The scripture says that God heard the voice of Elijah and the soul of the child came to him again and he revived. He took the child and handed him over to his mother: and Elijah said, “see thy son liveth.” Beloved, that woman’s sacrifice and giving spoke for her. Imagine what would have happened if she had held back during that recession? Child of God, if that widow woman’s seed spoke for her, your seed, sacrifice and commitment will also speak for you.

I prophesy that your seed will speak for you in every area of your life. You will not lack. You will not go away empty handed. You will not be stranded. For every sacrifice you have made and are still making, my God will fill your mouth with testimonies and show you a token for good. I bless you.

A Net Breaking Miracle

Posted on May 24, 2015 by Prayer

Proverbs_10-22: The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it

“And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by Elijah.”

1 Kings 17:16 (KJV)

As we climax the age, people are going to think and care more about themselves much more than they think about God and the things of the Kingdom. I come to challenge you today not to hold back from God. Don’t cut back on your service to God. Refuse to cut back on your giving even in difficult times because it is when things are difficult that you really need God to come through for you.

We are told in 1 Kings 17 that the widow of Zarephath was about to hold back because of the recession in the land, but somehow she had the common sense to obey the prompting of God’s servant. She had planned to cook what she had left, eat with her son and die. You see, keeping what she had was the natural thing to do, but thank God she didn’t, because by the word of the prophet that agenda of death was terminated.

Also in Luke 5 we are told that Simon Peter and his team of fishermen were also in a sort of recession when Jesus came to ask for the use of their boat. They were washing their nets after they had toiled all night and caught nothing. That was certainly not a good time for them to lend out their boat. They were tired and frustrated, and yet Jesus placed a demand on them. The natural thing to do, would have been to tell Jesus to go elsewhere but they did not. Peter allowed Jesus use his boat to preach. At the end of the preaching, Jesus asked him to launch out into the deep and let down his nets for a draught. He came up with a net breaking miracle.

Beloved, there is no way you give to God and go away empty handed. In fact there is nothing you invest in the Kingdom that goes unrewarded. It is a surety that when you give of your time and resources to the Kingdom, God will reward you. It is time to look away from your circumstances, frustrations and release for the Kingdom. Rather than eat her last meal with her son, the widow of Zarephath sowed her last food. Rather than die as she thought, she had enough to eat and spare all through the famine. I prophesy that your seed will speak for you in every area of your life. You will not lack. You will not go away empty handed.

God Who Brought You This Far Is More Than Able To Take You Through To The End And Even Beyond

Posted on May 24, 2015 by Prayer

James_1-12-1: Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him

“And being fully persuaded that, what He had promised, He was able also to perform.”

Romans 4:21 (KJV)

Your business, job or finances may not be at the level that you desire right now, but do you realize that you are also not where you used to be? If God brought you to where you are now, then know it that He is obligated to take you to the next level of your life, but you have to judge Him faithful. You must believe that His promises over your life will come to pass. When He made that promise to you, it was not to pull punches. He meant what He said. Your responsibility therefore is to believe the promise. Receive it and thank Him for the fulfillment.

I encourage you to stand firm in faith and in the place of prayers. Do not stop until you see the manifestation of everything you have believed God for. Oftentimes God will allow all flesh to be silent, so that no one will take His glory. So stop looking at impossibilities. Do not let the enemy garage you with fear because fear is a torment and one of devil’s age-long tricks of robbing people of their blessings. He who brought you this far is more than able to take you through to the end and even beyond. Be rest assured that God who made promises to you will remember you and do for you as He has said. Look at the life of Abraham. When everything was hopeless, Abraham believed anyway. He decided to live, not on the basis of what he saw he couldn’t do but on what God said he would do. Child of God it is not about you but about God who has spoken. Abraham didn’t focus on his age and say, “It’s hopeless nor did he survey Sarah’s decades of infertility and give up. He also didn’t tiptoe around God’s promise asking cautiously sceptical questions. Rather he plunged into the promise and came up strong. Being sure that God would make good what he had said.

God will continually watch over His word in your life to perform it. Indeed your story will change. Your gates shall be open continually. They shall not be shut day and night. God will cause you to laugh and show you a token of His goodness. I will hear your testimony, Amen!
