Hallelujah! We now live in a time when all our debts to God have been cancelled and all the things the devil stole from us have been returned.
OUR DEBTS HAVE BEEN CANCELLED
Luke 4:19, “To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.”
LUKE 4:16-30
This scripture had been written prophetically by the prophet Isaiah about 650 years prior to this time. It was read in Jewish synagogues thousands of times. But the one this verse was speaking of had never spoken it before. With this pronouncement, Jesus began the year of Jubilee.
The Year of Jubilee was described in Leviticus 25. It was a year when everyone left their fields unworked and kept a sabbath unto the Lord. The Lord gave the people a miraculous provision the year before this jubilee started that sustained them for three years until their crops could once again be harvested.
This jubilee was different than the other sabbatical years in that every debt was cancelled. All property was returned to its original owner and anyone who had been sold into slavery was set free. It was a year of new beginnings.
Jesus proclaimed a spiritual jubilee. We now live in a time when all our debts to God have been cancelled and all the things the devil stole from us have been returned. Even our slavery to the devil has come to an end through the redemptive work of our Lord Jesus Christ. This is a time for rejoicing.
Jesus is our jubilee.
May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

Romans_8-18:For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life
Fill yourself with the Word & promises of God.
Proverbs 4:23 “Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life.”
When you are facing problems and frustrations in your life; it is so easy to start to criticize God and wonder if He really cares for you. It is during times like these that you need to guard your heart and not allow doubt and fear to enter. Fill yourself with the Word and promises of God so that when the difficult times come your heart is filled with God’s truth and His plan for that situation and challenge.
May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

Philippians_4-7: And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus
My eyes are focused and clear. I can see exactly what God is calling me to do
Ephesians_1-3. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
Ephesians 1:18, Good News Translation (GNT)
18 I ask that your minds may be opened to see His light, so that you will know what is the hope to which He has called you, how rich are the wonderful blessings He promises His people
In Ephesians 1, the Apostle Paul described the spirit of wisdom and revelation as the “eyes of your understanding being enlightened.” The spirit of wisdom and revelation makes it possible for us to see the mystery or unseen realities of our redemption.
Ephesians_2-10-3: For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them
In Christ we have been launched into heavenly places to be able to clearly see God’s plans and purposes. When the spirit of wisdom launches us into orbit for a closer view or clearer picture, we can then see what God sees!
CONFESSION: My eyes are focused and clear. I can see exactly what God is calling me to do. I am grasping the immensity of this glorious way of life He has for Christians!
May God Bless Nigeria, America And Israel And Take Care Of Us; May God Make His Face Shine Upon Us, And Be Gracious To Us; May The Lord Lift Up His Countenance Upon Us, And Give Us Peace, In Jesus Christ Name, We Pray! Amen!
May The Grace The Lord Jesus Christ, And The Love Of God, And The Fellowship Of The Holy Spirit Be With You All. Amen!
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. —Psalm 46:1
One of my new friends is a mom whose 21-year-old daughter died suddenly in 2009, which sent her reeling. She told me, “I feel like an outcast from the normal world. I feel crushed and my soul is in so much pain.”
Indeed the losses that visit us can knock us off our feet—whether a death in the family, a child who walks away from God and family, or a physical or mental setback.
Yet what I’ve discovered is something musician Jeremy Camp made clear in a song he wrote after the death of his wife in 2001: When you are knocked off your feet by life’s difficulties, remember that “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble” (Ps. 46:1). That’s reason enough to get back up again. Camp described his struggle in the song called “Understand.” He asked, “Why don’t I get back on my feet again?” And he recognized that he could because “I know You understand it all.”
When trouble knocks us down, we can look up. God is there. He understands and cares. It’s not easy, but we can trust Him to help us get back on our feet again. —Dave Branon
Lift up your eyes, despairing one, The Lord your help will be; You have a friend in heaven who cheers, And calms the troubled sea. —Anon.
There is no place where earth’s sorrows are felt more than in heaven.
May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

Christian Courtship By Pastor E A Adeboye Memorise: Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge. Hebrews 13:4 Read: Ephesians 4:14-15 4:14 That we henceforth be no more children, … Continue reading →
Mark 1:37, “And when they had found him, they said unto him, All [men] seek for thee.”
MK. 1:35-39; LK. 4:42-44
This is an amazing statement. Jesus’ ministry was only a few months old and the masses of people were already seeking him out.
This is even more astonishing when you realize that Jesus had not used any of the conventional methods of publicity. In fact, Jesus had already rejected publicity during His first ministry in Jerusalem (Jn. 2:24-25). There was no natural explanation for Jesus’ success.
God is the one who promoted Jesus. And He used supernatural means to do it. It was not the slick techniques of Madison Avenue that brought the crowds–it was the awesome manifestation of God’s power.
Just the day before, Jesus had cast the demon out of a man at the synagogue in Capernaum (Mk. 1:21-28). This caused the whole city to gather at Peter’s house and Jesus healed every one of them (Lk. 4:40).
Jesus’ display of the miraculous power of God was the spark that the Holy Spirit used to light a fire in the hearts of these people. Jesus had this power because of His intimate relationship with His father. It is no accident that He was praying while all men were seeking Him.
As you seek to touch others with the new life that you’ve found in Christ, let God confirm His Word with the miraculous manifestations of His power through you

Romans_12-2: And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God
The secret things belong unto the Lord Our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law (Deuteronomy 29:29)
One Bible character who had access to great revelations through the help of the Holy Spirit was Ezekiel.
The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones, Ezekiel 37:1
The children of Israel at this point in time were groaning under Babylonian captivity. They saw themselves as withered away and having no hope (Ezekiel 37:11). It took Ezekiel’s being in the Spirit, and connecting with the Holy Spirit to discover what God had in store for them; to help them see that captivity was not their end but rather God was going to restore them back to the Promised Land (Ezekiel 37:12-14). Our God is the Custodian of secrets. However, there are some of His secret we need for our benefit as well as for the benefit of our loved ones, church members, etc. until we through our spirit man link up with the Holy Spirit, we may be denied such revelations. May you not be denied the secrets you need to enter your destiny in Jesus Christ Name! Amen! This explains why it is good to go into God’s presence on Sunday morning fasting. Also, it is very beneficial to pray in the spirit at least one or two hours daily. How often are you in spirit?
As a Christian, you choose either to walk in the spirit or in the flesh (carnal). The spiritual growth of a carnal Christian is pegged, except the fellow decide to deal with the flesh. As long as you allow or tolerate carnality in your life, you may not be able to access deep spiritual truths that can change your life and that of others. Galatians 5:17 says the flesh and the spirit are in opposition. To walk in the spirit, discipline the flesh. Your flesh craves for pleasure and loves to be indulged in things contrary to the spirit. Deny it! The extent of your spiritual ascent is determined by the degree to which you deny or subdue your flesh. To successfully keep your flesh under like Paul, you must be prepared to cooperate with The Holy Spirit. Screen what you see, read or watch. Destroy any lust breeding material such as in tapes, CDs, DVDs, printed materials, internet, etc. deliberately choose the television programmes you watch. Hear no evil, touch no evil and see no evil.
Every divine secret you need to know but you fail to get will cause you regrets. Ask God for the revelation of every secret you need to know now!
May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!
The saddest love story in the bible is the story of King David and Michal King Saul’s Daughter.
Twice it was mentioned how much Michal loved David.
In 1 Samuel 18:20 it was explicitly mentioned that Michal loved David
“Now Saul’s daughter Michal loved David, and when they told Saul about it, it pleased him.”
1 Samuel 18:28 “When Saul realized that the Lord was with David and that his daughter Michal loved him.”
In 1 Samuel 19:11-17 Michal risked her life to save the life of her husband David which further demonstrated her love and devotion to David.
Nowhere Was It Mentioned That David Loved Michal or Reciprocated The Love!
But three times in the same Bible, we are told that David and Jonathan loved each other.
1 Samuel 18:1-3: Jonathan, Saul’s son, formed a covenant with David, and their souls were knit together. Jonathan loved David as himself (1 Samuel 18:3).
1 Samuel 20:17: Jonathan made David promise again, “because he loved him as he loved his own soul.”
2 Samuel 1:26: David’s lament over Saul and Jonathan mentions their strong bond, stating, “Your love to me was more wonderful than the love of women.”
In all these things Michal died childless because in 2 Samuel 6:16, 20-23 she criticized her husband!
Men = LOVE!
Women = HONOR
If your husband is not loving you, report him to GOD his maker! But your hands and heart must be clean first.
2 Corinthians 10:6 says “And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete.”
Thank You Jesus,
Salvation Prayer

The Power Of Communion by Pastor Dony McGuire & Dr. Paul Graden
Last month, Dr. Paul Graden brought us a wonderful teaching at our Sunday Worship Celebration on the concepts and power of communion. He shared a somewhat lost principle of the early church, in that they shared communion daily, often multiple times a day, in their homes with those who were coming into “the faith” as well as those who were already in “the faith.” I’ve taken some of his teachings and broken them down in an attempt to awaken us to some fresh realities about this all-important ordinance of our faith.
In that time, communion typically took place prior to a meal and was preceded by a “blessing,” much like Jesus blessed the bread before He broke it at the Last Supper. The apostles devoted themselves to this (Acts 2:42). They did this daily in homes (Acts 2:46). We see the Apostle Paul practicing this also (Acts 20:11).
It wasn’t until Rome took over the church in 313 AD that communion was restricted to the church and the requirement for a priest to administer it started. Interestingly enough, they allowed the “blessing” to remain at home, which we now call “grace.” Before Rome banned communion at home, there were hardly any records of sick or infirmed people in the church. The only reason a “Christian” suffered illness was because they did not understand what communion was really about. This is clearly recorded in 1 Cor 11:28-32.
The church had been instructed to walk in love (1 Cor 13), but they had failed to repent to one another. Thus, some were receiving communion in an unworthy manner. The result was that many were weak and sick, and many died. All because they did not discern the Lord’s Body! The Corinthians missed Paul’s point. We can learn from their misjudgment and heed Paul’s advice by understanding what communion is about and starting off by judging ourselves first, bringing our failings to God, repenting, receiving forgiveness and moving forward.
Communion is paralleled with the Israelites preparation for the Exodus. They slaughtered a lamb and its blood was applied to the doorpost to protect the firstborn son from death. This was a typology of Jesus’ blood that would protect us from death, as He promised us eternal life if we partake of communion (John 6:53-54). Then the Israelites were instructed to eat the flesh of the lamb. The next morning, millions of them left Egypt and not a single one of them were sick or feeble! They continued taking communion daily by eating of the “manna” (bread) that was supernaturally provided by God.
Similarly, Jesus instructs us to eat of His flesh and drink His blood (John 6:53-54). In verse 56, Jesus promises that, when we do this, we will continually dwell in Him. Luke described the promise a little differently by describing our dwelling in Him as having our spiritual eyes opened (Luke 24:30-35).
We should keep in mind that communion is not a “magic pill”; it must be combined with faith (Hebrews 11:6). It is a symbol of God’s covenant with us.
God’s grace is allowing us this glimpse “under the hood” through the science of quantum physics. Quantum physics has been called the “Science of Heaven Invading Earth.” The best part is that God’s grace is communicating this complex message in terms that we all can understand. Quantum physicists have discovered so much information that relates to this–too much to briefly share here. But here are a couple of things to chew on:
1. Our DNA produces Bio-Photons, which they describe as a ball of light inside of us and an aura of light particles outside of us. They are controlled by our thoughts and emotions and have the ability to change our molecular structure. So, when we partake of communion, we ingest the bread and juice. Our bodies begin to absorb the elements into our cells and bloodstream. In faith, we believe that the bread and juice become the blood and the body of our Lord Jesus Christ when we partake of these elements. If we can wrap our minds around our faith, then we have to take this a step further and realize this also introduces the very DNA of God into our bodies and changes our DNA to His. When this happens, diseases are healed and wholeness comes. So we should do this daily, and/or as often as we will, and mix it with our faith.
2. Scientists tell us that we literally phase in and out of this physical world 3,500 times per minute. Where are we when we phase out? Ephesians 2:6 tells us that we are seated with Christ in heavenly places. Imagine the simple act of taking communion “by faith” opening our spiritual eyes and allowing us to become aware that we live in heaven and earth simultaneously! Then we will see and hear God clearly and wonderfully. Then we will do as Jesus did and only say what the Father says and do what we see the Father doing (John 5:19).
Yes, I understand how complex these thoughts might seem in context to the way some of us were raised, and I also understand many of us were led to believe quantum physicists and scientists were on the opposite side of the spectrum when it comes to the separation of the church and the world. But many of today’s quantum physicists and scientists are believers also and are looking for answers as to why many in the church seem to be powerless, sick and diseased.
We can accept the words of Jesus “by faith” and believe that when we partake of the elements of communion “by faith,” then we’re ingesting His flesh and His blood into our bodies. I also believe it’s within our ability to comprehend this and then understand because He is God’s Son, we become partakers of the DNA of His Father who is also our Father!!!
WOW!!!
For that reason, I am asking that our church family enter into a season of taking communion daily. Believing that when we do this by faith, we are becoming partakers of the very life of God. No sickness or disease can exist where the life of God exists. It’s our opportunity to step into a new realm of understanding knowing that God the Father is not afraid to share His very life with all of His children.
I am so thankful for the grace of God allowing me to partake of His supernatural Kingdom today and effect the world around me in a powerful way for Jesus. My prayer is that you will join me and we will build a unified church as we truly become the Body of Christ.
May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!
Matthew_18-20: For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them
We sometimes wonder where God is during the storms of life, in all the troubles of the world. Where is God? Why doesn’t He stop the evil? The Bible assures us that God will abolish evil when Christ returns. Someday He will come with shouts of acclamation, and there will be a joyous reunion of all those who have trusted in Him.
Jesus did not tell us when He is coming back. He said we were not to speculate. “No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father” (Matthew 24:36). The sixth chapter of Revelation gives a strikingly detailed portrait of the end times, but no one knows when these things will occur except the Father in heaven.
May The Good Lord Save Nigeria And Israel From All Our Enemies And Prosper Us Beyond Our Imaginations, In Jesus Christ Mighty Name We Pray, Amen!
John_5-28: Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
“He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: He that cometh from heaven is above all” John 3:31
The text says that He that is from above is above all. The “He” refers to Jesus, He came from above and so He is above all. But since we are born again it refers to us also. When you gave your life to Christ, you entered into a relationship that catapulted you from the realm of failure to the realm of success for where Jesus is, is where you are also, because you are in Christ.
Jesus said except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God (John 3:3). Also except a man be born of the water and the Spirit he cannot enter the Kingdom of God (John 3:5). By the new Birth every believer is In Christ. The Bible goes on to say that if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation (2 Cor. 5:17). Yes your physical body does not change, but the real you does, your real you, your spirit man becomes new.
If you are in Christ, you are automatically where He is. He is above Satan and his cohorts. He is above sin, sickness, disease, poverty, death, depression, frustration, deception etc. that means that you, the believer, is above them too. Put on that mentality and rise above Satan’s intimidation and deception. You are born from above and so you are above all. Declare it three times to yourself with your eyes closed: “I am from above and so I am above all” Paint the imagination; see yourself above that challenge and it will come to pass – you have what you see.

Upon hearing the news of the empty tomb, Peter and John ran to see for themselves. Peter confronted the evidence, but he was confused. At that instant, he must have been angrier than ever. He must have surmised that the enemies of Jesus who had dared to crucify Him, had now taken the body for who knew what purpose!
John quietly looked around. He noticed that the grave clothes were totally unlike those of Lazarus, which had been just a pile of stinking rags by the time Martha had finished unwrapping him. These grave clothes were lying, not as though someone had removed them from the body, but as though the body were still inside! The face cloth was situated where the face would have been, with the few inches of the neck separating it from the rest of the shroud. As he studied the evidence, it must have gradually dawned on him that the grave clothes looked like an empty cocoon! They looked as though the body had just evaporated up through them! Then John knew! (John 20:8). The body hadn’t evaporated. Jesus had risen from the dead!
Blessings
May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

God cannot disappoint you, His faithfulness is forever sure. Hope and Faithfulness
Hope links with the future. Moreover, there is a link between hope and God because He is the One who controls tomorrow. Anyone in charge of tomorrow is definitely able to uphold hope.
Revelation 1:8 says, “I am Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the Ending, says the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, The Almighty”.
Hope is linked with tomorrow and God is the One who holds tomorrow. Do not let any man deceive you: no man holds tomorrow except God. This is why James warns against boasting about tomorrow while acknowledging that we need God – the one in control of tomorrow – to enter into tomorrow of our dreams (James 4:13-16). Many who bragged about tomorrow never lived to see it.
Another way God is linked with hope is through His faithfulness. Deuteronomy 7:9 says, “Know therefore that the LORD thy God, He is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that loves Him and keep His commandments to a thousand generations.”
God is extremely faithful. The quality of His faithfulness in keeping promises and agreements is unparalleled. There are some people around us who make simple promises that they can easily fulfil yet, they fail to fulfil them because they lack the discipline in faithfulness.
Putting all your hope in an unfaithful man can lead to great embarrassment and loss when the fellow suddenly disappoints you at a crucial time.
God cannot disappoint you! Numbers 23:19 says, “God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath He said, and shall He not do it? Or hath He spoken, and shall He not make it good?”
God doesn’t only keep covenants but He is the greatest covenant keeper as He can fulfil His promise to an individual or a family for up to a thousand generations!
What a wonderful God we serve!
May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

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
The challenges you face today is directly related to the joy you will experience in the future.
When the storms of life hit, we are often tempted to run for cover. When they continue indefinitely, we struggle to find encouragement. When the rain and the wind gather strength until they turn into what seems to be a hurricane, we find ourselves saying, “I can’t do this any longer,” the truth is this: we can’t, but God can.
He is the only One who can help us victoriously fight through the battles of life. Nothing can provide the type of strength that He provides, especially when we feel overwhelmed and discouraged. He stands beside us, and He never retreats.
Daniel never worried about being cast into the lion’s den. He knew that the Lord would provide the help and protection he needed to make it through the night. Some of the people who read these words are fighting a battle with a life-threatening disease. It is an unseen enemy from a human standpoint but not from God’s. He knows exactly what we are facing and how it is affecting our lives.
There is an incredible sense of peace that comes from learning how to rest in the Lord and allow Him to take care of your troubles. This does not mean that you abandon the fight and just give up trying. It means that you shift the focus of your effort from yourself to God. This is where the true victory is gained.
The apostle Paul faced many life-threatening situations. At one point, he debated whether it was better to ask God to allow him to go home to heaven where he would have unending peace and glory in the presence of Christ or to continue living the earthly life God had given him. Paul chose the latter. As much as he longed to see the Lord in heaven, he loved having the opportunity here to tell others about God’s unending, unconditional love and forgiveness.
The challenges you face today is directly related to the joy you will experience in the future.

“Then said Jesus unto them again, verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.” John 10:7, 11
Throughout the Bible, particularly the New Testament, God used things that we can readily identify with to speak to us the deep mystery of the Kingdom. Jesus used the everyday things around to teach very deep truths that every believer ought to know. He knew that if you can just catch a glimpse of what He is saying, you will be more effective ministers of the Gospel.
Look at our text again; do you understand the full import of what Jesus was saying? If you truly understand our text for today, you will have no reason to fear anything in life. Let me break it down a little – The sheepfold is a place where the sheep are kept safe. There is an opening into this place through which the sheep is herded in. The good shepherd then sleeps right across that opening in the night. The implication is whenever danger comes the enemy had to first contend with the shepherd before entering the sheepfold. Now you can understand it better when Jesus says He is the door to the sheepfold and the good shepherd.
This means that the good shepherd guarantees the supply of all my needs and he, who is the door to the sheepfold, also guarantees my protection from any evil. Hallelujah! So I can say without any shadow of fear that nothing shall by any means hurt me. The same is true for you, if only you will believe. Beloved, you have no reason to fear.
