THINKING ON GOD’S WORD (THE BIBLE) IS MUCH MORE THAN
POSITIVE THINKING. BUILD YOUR LIFE ON JESUS CHRIST.

Finally, brethren,
whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are
just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever
things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise,
think on these things (Philippians 4:8)

The things listed in this scripture are by no means
exhaustive. Paul only wanted us to have the idea of the kind of things God’s
children should think or meditate on. Some people think positively according to
the teachings of intellectual men rather than according to the Bible. That’s
not correct!

You have to understand that nothing else can put you over in
life except God’s Word. Thinking on God’s Word (The Bible) is much more than
positive thinking.  The Bible says,
through knowledge shall the just be put over, that is, delivered into their
inheritance (Proverbs 11:9). I want you to realize this is not talking about
knowledge of science or philosophy; this refers to revelation knowledge, which
the Holy Spirit imparts to you as you study God’s Word. Man can only give you
his philosophy; his wisdom never works.

It’s a shame to find how people respect men who have acquired
a lot of money and become famous, but forget what really matters. True life is
only in the Word of God; you must realize that! Don’t build your life on some
philosopher; build your life on Jesus Christ and His Living Word – The Bible.
God’s Word gives life. Think on it. Let it fill your thoughts morning, noon and
night. Whatever things are pure, just, honest, lovely, of good report, full of
praise and virtue are what you should think on I don’t think there’s anything
in all of creation that can be truer, more just , more honest, lovelier and of
better report than the Word of God. It’s actually an exhortation to think on
His Word. Spend time daily to think on God’s Word. Your words and actions are a
function of your thinking. If you think right, you will talk right and you will
surely live right!

Whenever you find yourself in a challenging situation,
instead of thinking on the problem and magnifying it, simply get hold of God’s
Word and begin to think and meditate on it! As you reflect upon God’s Word, there’ll
be a transformation, a metamorphosis, a transfiguration that will bring about a
solution and a permanent change in your life.

PRAYER

Lord, Your Word is in
my heart and in my mouth, I meditate upon it day and night and thereby make my
way prosperous, in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

You are God’s peculiar treasure, please know your worth, value in Christ Jesus

You are God’s peculiar treasure, please know your worth in
CHRIST JESUS

“I hate myself”.
“There is nothing good in me.” Have you ever met folks who talk this way?
Such people sometime wouldn’t even look at themselves in the mirror anymore.  It’s a pity that many people don’t know their
worth. It’s your responsibility to know what you’re worth; to discover the
treasure God has placed in you, and use it to beautify your life.

The Bible says, “For
we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath
before ordained that we should walk in them” (Ephesians 2:10). So you see,
you’re God’s best and He wants you to discover the treasures He has deposited
in you. He gave you the necessary material which is the Word so you can live in
glory.

It’s your responsibility to discover your worth by studying
the Bible. If you could only look inward and use the Bible to build yourself
up, you’ll always value yourself. The Word – the Bible is your mirror: “But we all, with open face beholding as in
a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to
glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Corinthians 3:18).

As you discover your worth, you’ll also discover God’s
purpose for your life. You’re valuable to Him that’s why He placed you on earth
to affect the lives of many in this world. You have to acknowledge what He has
deposited in you and walk in the light of it.

CONFESSION

I know who I am. I am
conscious of the life of Christ in me and I know I can do all things, through
Christ that strengthens me. I am His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto
good works and God’s eternal glory, Amen!

my life. I receive eternal life into my spirit and according to Romans 10:9, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth
the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from
the dead, thou shalt be saved,” I am saved; I am born-again; I am a child
of God! I now have Christ dwelling in me, and greater is He that is in me than
he that is in the world! (1 John 4:4). I now walk in the consciousness of my
new life in Christ Jesus. Hallelujah!

If you have just said this prayer with me CONGRATULATIONS! You are now a child
of God.

You are now seated above all principality and power and
might and dominion, and every name that is named (failure, poverty, sickness, infirmities,
limitations, lack, diseases, fear)not only in this age but also in that which
is to come with Christ Jesus Our personal Lord and Saviour.  Amen! (Ephesians 1:15-23)

Receive power to succeed in every area of your life. Study your
Bible diligently and meditate in it day and night (Joshua 1:8).

And lastly, don’t forget the fellowship of the Saints; prayerfully
find and belong to a Bible – faith believing Church and watch God fulfil all
His Word concerning You!

Congratulations!!!!

ONCE GOD ANOINTS YOU WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT NOTHING CAN STOP
YOU!

Once God anoints you with the Holy Spirit nothing can stop
you anymore. The anointing maybe unseen and unheard, nevertheless you can see
what the anointing does.

The anointing is the power of the Holy Spirit that rests on
a man. It brings the glory of God upon your life and gives you direction in
life. When that anointing rests on you. It’ll change you from an ordinary man
to a supernatural being: “And it shall
come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy
shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed
because of the anointing” (Isaiah 10:27).

The anointing imparts authority to your words and brings
grace into your life causing you to walk in divine favour. Things just fall
into place for you; failure, poverty and defeat become separated from you. This
is why the Bible says, “….all things work
together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according
to His purpose” (Romans 8:28).

When you receive that anointing upon your life, no weapon
fashioned against you shall prosper. If you would receive the anointing of God
into your life, you’ll only see progress. The Bible says, “But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more
and more unto the perfect day” (Proverbs 4:18). There are no ups and down
for the man that walks in the anointing of the Holy Spirit. You don’t have
failure today, success tomorrow and then failure. Rather, you success shines
brighter and brighter to the perfect day; you just keep moving forward, making
progress unto perfection.

These are the kind of things the anointing of the Holy
Spirit will do for you.

PRAYER

Dear Father, my heart
is open to see the revelations of Your Word. Let Your Spirit reveal the many
hidden treasures and benefit residing in me by virtue of Your anointing upon my
life, in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

God loves partnership

Prosperity is spiritual, progress in life is spiritual as
well and these two don’t happen by chance or by coincidence. You prosper and
make progress when you’re connected with God; that divine contact is all you
need. One of the ways to make this contact or connection is through
partnership.

God loves partnership. In fact, He designed partnership. He
initiated the first partnership ever recorded, in the Garden of Eden, when He
created man to have dominion over the rest of His creation. We’re still in
partnership with Him today. Romans 8:17 says that He has made us joint heirs
together with Christ and He further called us “…..partakers of the divine
nature….” 2 Peter 1:4.

“God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of His Son Jesus Christ Our
Lord” (1 Corinthians 1:9).in other words, God has called us into partnership
with His Son, Jesus Christ. You can’t produce results in Christ until you’re
conscious of this partnership: The Bible says in 1 John 1:3, “….and truly our fellowship
is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.”

Make yourself relevant in reaching not only those in your
immediate environment but also the whole world for Jesus Christ. Take advantage
of the several God – given opportunities through partnership to participate in
world evangelization. Learn to join forces with others to make greater impact
in the world with the gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ, more than you could ever
make as an individual.

PRAYER

Father, I thank You
for counting me faithful to call me into partnership with Your Son, Jesus
Christ. Guide my mind I pray, so I can see the different opportunities that
you’ve made available to partake  of Your
grace in partnership, in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

When your spirit is aglow with the power of God, you’ll be able to influence people around you

Posted on by

To glow means to radiate light or heat or both. The Bible
tells us that there’s a spiritual glow about the children of God. That radiance
of divine energy is sparked off by the presence of the Holy Spirit and can be
seen on the believer. This means, you’re not empty for there’s power inside
you; you actually radiate some divine energy from within you into your world.

When your spirit is aglow with the power of God you’ll be
able to influence people around you for Jesus. However, one of the devil’s
strategies is to neutralize that radiance of the Spirit. He’ll stop at nothing
until he has dowsed your fire and stopped your influence in your environment. Since
he couldn’t stop you from coming to Christ, he’ll work to ensure you join the
“Silent Majority”. The “silent majority” are those who wouldn’t use the tools
God gave them to exercise control over their lives by the Word. As a result,
their lives are easily controlled by circumstances or situations.

“Never lag in zeal (and) in earnest endeavour, be aglow
(and) burning with the Spirit serving the Lord”. (Romans 12:11 AMP). In other
words, do not become languid and dull.  This
is the way some Christians are today. They’re uninterested in spiritual
activities. Such folks have no zeal; they are spiritless. Now, that doesn’t
mean they don’t have the Holy Spirit. Rather, it means they’re without
spiritual fervour. A child of God must not be that way.

Don’t ever become spiritually inert among people with whom
you live or work. It’s compulsory for every believer in Christ to be aglow in
the spirit. Regularly do a self – check or self – appraisal to determine the
level of your zeal for you can actually tell whether or not you’re aglow in the
spirit. “Don’t burn out; keep yourselves
fuelled and aflame. Be alert servants of the Master” (Romans 12:11 MSG).
You must maintain your spiritual fervency and keep your spirit aglow at all
times.

PRAYER

Dear Father, I stir
my spirit up as I pray in other tongues. I am energized and my spirit is aglow
with the anointing and your grace. Amen!

Holy Spirit is With You Forever

And I will pray the Father, and He
shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you forever (John
14:16).

Some Christians
think the Holy Spirit sometimes goes on a break, or takes a recess just because
at such times they didn’t “feel” His presence. You don’t have to “feel” God to
know that He’s with you. Rather, you ought to know that He’s with you always,
because the Word says so. Jesus said, “…….and,
lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen” (Matthew
28:20). He didn’t say, “I’m with you only
when you can “feel” that I am.” Many have reduced their experience of Christianity
to the carnal realm of feeling, and that’s so wrong, for we walk by faith and
not by sensory perceptions (2 Corinthians 5:7).

But you
might want to ask, “What if someone, having received the Holy Spirit at the New
Birth, backslides and feels that the Holy Spirit has left him or her, is this
just a feeling or was the Holy Spirit actually frustrated with all the sin in
such a person?” Well, God is not a man (Numbers 23:19), and He doesn’t act like
some earthly parents who wouldn’t relate with their kids for doing something
wrong. Sadly, this is the poor perception of God that some folks have.

That you did
something wrong won’t make the Holy Spirit leave you. Remember, you weren’t
made right with God because of your own righteousness; it came because God gave
you His righteousness. Thus, His presence with you isn’t dependent on what you
did right or wrong, or the way you feel. His presence is dependent on His
infallible Word; because of His love! That’s the reason He’ll never leave you
nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5).

Read again
the words of Jesus in our opening verse, He said”And I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter,
that He may abide with you forever” (John 14:16). God the Father, through
the Holy Spirit abides with you forever, not sometimes. Don’t consider what
your feelings tell you. As long as you haven’t wilfully rejected Christ and His
sacrifice of salvation for you on the Cross, the Holy Spirit cannot and will
not leave you!

Even when
you err and start feeling as though the Holy Spirit has left you, it’s still
the Holy Spirit who guides you unto repentance, proving His presence with you
even at such times. If He left you, you could never return to Him! But He
wouldn’t, for He’s with you to fulfil His ministry in your life, till Jesus
comes. Hallelujah!

PRAYER

PRECIOUS LORD, I THANK
YOU FOR THE RICH FELLOWSHIP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WHICH I ENJOY LAVISHLY TODAY,
AND FOREVER. WHAT JOY TO KNOW THAT I’M ORDAINED INTO THIS WONDERFUL UNION AND
FELLOWSHIP WITH YOU FOR ETERNITY! AMEN!

Faith, Hope and Love

Posted on by

And now abideth faith, hope, love,
these three, but the greatest of these is love (1 Corinthians 13:13)

Faith, Hope
and Love are the three creative principles of the human spirit. They are also
abiding principles, as indicated in our opening verse. This means that when all
else fail, these tree principles will remain; they’ll never pass away.

Animals
don’t have and can’t exhibit these principles, for they are qualities of the
human spirit. They are factors that help us understand and appreciate the
yearnings of the human nature. They help explain why we are the way we are, and
why we do things the way we do. When you get to understand faith, hope, and
love, you’ll understand yourself much better and also understand things about
God that you never knew.

Like all
laws, these three principles of faith, hope, and love don’t function on their
own; they must be applied or acted upon. Faith, hope and love are in your
spirit, but that doesn’t mean they are going to work on their own. You’re the
one to make a choice to act your faith, to always be hopeful towards God and to
walk in love.

With your
faith, you can do anything (Matthew 17:20): then, Romans 5:5 tells us, that
hope never disappoints.

The reason
hope doesn’t disappoints is that the love of God is shed abroad in our heart by
the Holy Spirit (Romans 5:5). Love in your heart gives life to your faith, for
the Bible says faith works by Love (Galatians 5:6). When you activate these
three principles in your life, you’ll be extraordinarily productive.

PRAYER

Dear Father, I thank You for granting
me understanding of faith, hope and love; I function today with these higher
principles of the kingdom, and declare that they’re producing positive
supernatural results as I put them to work
in my life, in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

Enjoy Your God’s Given Life.

When your
alarm clock goes off in the morning do you wish you could just stay in bed? Do
your struggles and responsibilities weigh you down with frustration, boredom or
hopeless? If these sentiments describe the way you feel about life, then you
are not enjoying the fullness of life that Christ offers. He is not only our
saviour but also our burden-bearer. God wants you to have a much better life –
one that you enjoy! God will give you the ability to enjoy life, no matter what.

Here’s how you can enjoy your life

Notice God’s
gifts and thank Him for them. Make it a daily practice to thank God for each
new day when you wake up from bed.

Throughout
the day, keep your mind on the good things in your life for which you’re
grateful. Don’t forget to acknowledge basic blessings such as your ability to
breathe, eat or smile.

Turn your
worries into prayers. Whenever a worry enters your mind, find a promise of God
that responds to it and turn it into prayer point. Know that worry can’t accomplish
anything good, but faith in the LORD has great power, since nothing is
impossible with God!

Be specific
as you share your concern with God and trust Him to answer your prayers in the
right way at the right time.

Look for
fulfilment in the right place. Stop looking for true and lasting satisfaction
in the wrong places, such as through your work, personal pleasure or
accumulation of knowledge or material possessions. Realize that only God can
provide the fulfilment you seek. Make a strong relationship with Him your top
priority.

Prayer: Lord, I celebrate your
goodness in my life and thank You for Your mercies! Amen!

Psalm 63:1-11.

And whatever ye do in word or deed,
do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by
Him. (Colossians 3:17).

The Lord
Jesus was born to be man’s legal representative to God, so He could bear the
penalty for sin on his behalf. He took upon Him the form of a servant and was
made in the likeness of men (Philippians 2:7). All that He did in the cause of
His earthly ministry was in man’s stead – as our substitute. Jesus knew His
mission as man’s representative and took every turn to emphasize it. He referred
to Himself as the “Son of Man”. He wanted everyone to know He was man’s representative.

When Jesus
died on the cross, we died on the cross with Him; and when He was buried we
were buried with Him; because He represented us; He died in our place, in our
name. so when God raised Him up in triumph over satan and sin, in the mind of
justice, we were raised up together with Him: “But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved
us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by
grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together
in heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 2:4-6).

As one who’s
born again, you’ve been called into the victory – life, where you reign and
rule over life’s circumstances through Christ. The life, glory and name of
Jesus now belong to you; therefore you’re to live in, and do all things in the
Name of Jesus as read in our opening verse. To live in the Name of Jesus Christ
is to live in victory over life’s challenges.

No demon,
sickness or disease can destroy or hinder anyone who has come to apprehend the
victory wrought for us through the death, burial and resurrection of our Lord
Jesus Christ. I urge you, therefore, to dare believe the Word, and face your
endeavours today with the mindset of a champion, knowing that you have the
victory in the Name of Jesus Christ!

PRAYER

DEAR FATHER, I THANK
YOU FOR GIVING ME THE POWER OF ATTORNEY TO USE AND LIVE IN THE NAME OF JESUS
CHRIST. I GO FORTH TODAY WITH JOY, KNOWING THAT I’VE GOT VICTORY IN THE NAME OF
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AMEN!

Holy Spirit Will Help You Pray The Perfect Will Of God

Likewise the Spirit
also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we
ought: but the Spirit Itself maketh intercession for us with groaning which
cannot be uttered (Romans 8:26)

Some people
become so overwhelmed by their problems that they find it difficult to pray. As
a child of God, you should never find yourself in such a situation. But if that’s
where you are, I want you to know the Holy Spirit can help you out of the
quagmire.

When everything
around you is going the wrong direction and you don’t know what to do anymore,
the Holy Spirit is there to help you. Romans 8:26 says, “…….God’s Spirit is
right alongside helping us along. If we don’t know how or what to pray, it
doesn’t matter. He (The Holy Spirit) does our praying in and for us…..” (MSG).

A lot of
people make wrong choices because they are ignorant of the Lord’s Will. God knows
exactly what you require. He also knows that you can unwittingly make wrong
choices or even ask amiss when you pray. The Bible says The Holy Spirit can
help you in that weakness. The Holy Spirit will help you pray when you don’t
know what to say or how to say it; He’ll give you the right words to say and
help you present your request before the Lord. The Bible says, “For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue
speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in
the Spirit he speaketh mysteries” (1 Corinthians 14:2). Whenever you pray
in other tongues, it’s the Holy Spirit that gives you utterance.

God also
knows there could be times when words become difficult to utter; you’re totally
at loss for words. The Holy Spirit can help you present your request at such
times as well. “How?” you may want to ask. By “……making prayer out of our
wordless sighs, our aching groans” (Romans 8:26 MSG). Isn’t God so caring and
loving! He has you covered; He didn’t leave any situation out.

Therefore,
it makes no difference how terrible your situation is, The Holy Spirit is
always there, directing your steps and helping you through it all. He is your
Advocate.

PRAYER

DEAR HOLY SPIRIT, I
THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME WORDS BY WHICH TO COMMUNICATE DIRECTLY WITH MY HEAVENLY
FATHER. AS I PRAY IN OTHER TONGUES, I YIELD MY VOCAL ORGANS TO YOU AND ASK THAT
YOU FILL IT WITH WORDS OF PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING TO THE LORD FOR HIS MIGHTY
WORKS IN MY LIFE, IN JESUS CHRIST NAME, AMEN!

You Are Established To Shine In Zion.

Jesus is considered by scholars such as Weber to be an example of a charismatic religious leader. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

THEY THAT TRUST IN THE
LORD SHALL BE AS MOUNT ZION, WHICH CANNOT BE REMOVED, BUT ABIDETH FOREVER
(PSALM 125:1).

As a child
of God, you dwell in Zion. That’s the city of your habitation, and you’ve been
planted there to shine. In Psalm 1:3, the Bible talks about the man whose
delight is in the Word and meditates on it day and night: “…….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”.

This verse
of Scripture is talking about the saints; that’s you. You’re like the tree
planted by the rivers of water; you’re bringing forth your fruit in season, and
your leaves shall not wither. Anything you do; whatever you’re connected with,
shall prosper. What a blessing this is! That’s another way of letting you know
that you’ve been established to shine in Zion. You’ve been ordained to prosper,
experience divine health, succeed and excel in every area of your life.
Hallelujah!

But this is
not so for the ungodly (non – Christians) – they are like the chaff blown away
by the wind; therefore, are unable to stand in the judgment and their ways end
in destruction (Psalm 1:4-6). The judgment the psalmist is talking about here
is not the great judgment of the bye–and–bye; he’s referring to the winds of
opposition. In other words, when contrary winds blow, the ungodly will not
stand.

You are like
Mount Zion and have been established on the Rock, Christ Jesus. He is the Rock
of your salvation as well as your success, prosperity and divine health.
Therefore, you’ll forever remain unshakable in the face of adversities and oppositions,
for you’ve been plucked out of the miry clay of fear, defeat and death, and
established to experience eternal glory, victory, peace and prosperity. You’ve
been established to be fruitful and productive, and shine all the days of your
life.

PRAYER

DEAR FATHER IN HEAVEN,
I’M SO GRATEFUL TO YOU FOR ESTABLISHING ME IN THE PATH OF PROSPERITY, SUCCESS,
HEALTH, PEACE AND JOY. AS I DELIGHT MYSELF IN YOU, I ASK THAT YOU CAUSE MY LIFE
TO BLOSSOM IN AN EVER INCREASING MEASURE AS I MAKE YOUR WORD MY STAY AND
MEDITATION ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE, IN JESUS CHRIST NAME, AMEN!

Do you know
that you are the light in your world?
The Lord Jesus Christ wasn’t kidding when He said, “Ye are the light of
the world…..” (Matthew 5:14); He meant every word He said.

What is
light? Light is that which makes manifest; it gives direction and shows the
way. Also light brings fulfilment and joy. This is why He gave you the
responsibility of teaching the people of the world the way to live (Matthew
28:19). What a calling, what an honour, what a commission!

Jesus
announced to the people that He is the Light of the world (John 8:12). You are
the light of the world today, in the same sense as Jesus was the light of the
world in His day. If you are a student, you are the light of your school. If
you are a businessman, you are the light of your industry. If you are a
policeman, you are the light of the service. If you are a soldier, you are the
light of the army.

Jesus has
made you the light of the world! When you understand this truth, it’ll put
springs in your steps. There can be no darkness in your life anymore for you
are the light of the world. Sickness, poverty, discouragement and death are no
longer part of your life. There’s something special about you. You’re unique
and different; you’re a shining light. Begin to walk in this reality today.

CONFESSION

I’VE FOUND MY PLACE.
I’VE DISCOVERED WHO I AM – THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. I AM SHINING FOR JESUS
CHRIST TODAY! I WILL NEVER WALK IN DARKNESS. I WILL NEVER WALK IN CONFUSION OR
DEFEAT BUT IN VICTORY, IN JESUS CHRIST NAME, AMEN!

AND I WILL ASK THE
FATHER, AND HE WILL GIVE YOU ANOTHER COMFORTER (CONUNSELLOR, HELPER,
INTERCESSOR, ADVOCATE, STRENGTHENER, AND STANDBY), THAT HE MAY REMAIN WITH YOU
FOREVER (JOHN 14:16 AMP).

The Holy
Spirit wants you to know that He is your Helper. Therefore, you don’t have to
face any difficult situation alone. Three Hebrew boys; Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego
were thrown into the fiery furnace, but they were unhurt because they weren’t
alone. There was a fourth man with them in the fire. That fourth man was the
Helper amidst the trouble and He is the Holy Ghost.

The Holy
Spirit is your spiritual Helper and He can do much more than your mind can
fathom (Ephesians 3:20). He can help you out of any situation. He’s your
Standby. He’s always there for you at anytime of the day; for He neither
slumbers nor sleeps (Psalm 121:4).

Though the
fire raged, yet, the fire had no power over the bodies of the three Hebrew
boys, “….nor was a hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed,
nor the smell of fire had passed on them” (Daniel 3:27). I want you to realize
that the Holy Ghost wasn’t just standing like a monument; rather, He was
already working ever before the boys were thrown into the fiery furnace.

If you’re
going through fire right now; it may be in your finances, body, academics,
marriage or business, I want you to know God has big plans for you and He’s
already working on it. He has given you the “super-duper” Holy Ghost as your
Helper. Instead of seeking man’s help, turn your attention to Him and trust Him
for He never fails. He’s saying to you today, “when you go through deep waters
and great trouble, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of
difficulty, you will not drown! When you walk through the fire of oppression,
you will not be burned up – the flames will not consume you” (Isaiah 43:2 TLB).
Trust Him and He’ll bring you out of that trouble.

PRAYER

DEAR FATHER, I THANK
YOU FOR THE GIFT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT; HE’S MY COUNSELLOR, HELPER, INTERCESSOR, ADVOCATE,
STRENGTHENER, AND STANDBY. STRENGTHEN MY HEART AND STIR UP COURAGE WITHIN ME I
PRAY; THAT I MAY SET MY FOCUS ON HIM ALONE IN SPITE OF THE SITUATION AROUND ME,
IN JESUS CHRIST NAME, AMEN!

With God all things are possible

Has someone ever told you “That’s absolutely impossible; there’s no way you can get that done!” You looked at them with fire in your eyes and said, “Impossible? What do you mean ‘Impossible?’” I’m sure that’s the same way the Lord Jesus looked at His disciples when they told Him, “Lord, that’s absolutely impossible, where are we going to get food to feed all these people!” They suggested to Him to send away the people that had been with Him in the wilderness three days, listening to Him teach and preach the gospel of the Kingdom. They couldn’t see the possibility of Jesus feeding such a great multitude. As far as they were concerned, it just couldn’t happen.

“Are we going to send them away hungry?” Jesus asked them.

“What in the world does He expect us to do?” they wondered at Him. Then to let Him see just how impossible it was, they told Him, “Well, there’s a little boy here with his lunch of three loaves and two fishes.”

Then Jesus said, “Alright, now bring that boy’s lunch here to me”

You know the rest of the story. Jesus fed five thousand men, excluding women and children (totalling twelve to fifteen thousand people), with three loaves of bread and two fishes! That’s not all; there were twelve basketful of leftovers!

You know, God fed the children of Israel in the wilderness all through the time they were there and He never complained once to anyone of shortage! When you read your Bible properly, you’ll realize the import of this. You may have thought manna only fell on the Israelites’ camp a few days. Wrong! For forty years that they were in the wilderness, God fed the children of Israel every day with manna from heaven. That may be impossible for men to do but, with our God, that’s just what He specializes in.

CONFESSION

I serve the God with whom all things are possible, and because I believe in Him, all things are possible with me too. My God supplies all my needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus and I live in success, abundance, prosperity and health, Amen!

Your prosperity is in your mouth

Your mouth is
not for talking and eating only. The Bible shows us that your mouth is what
charts your course in life. You need to know that your future is in your mouth.
Your prosperity, your health, your success, victory, progress and promotion in
life are in your mouth. That’s on the positive. In the same way, on the
negative, the sickness, failure, poverty, disease, lack, frustrations and fear
that people experience in their lives are the result of what they say with
their mouth.

Nothing happens
in your life except that which you’ve voiced with your own mouth. So, whether
or not you’re going to have a glorious, prosperous, victorious and successful
future is dependent on what you say. The Bible says, “Death and life are in the
power of the tongue.” Everything that’s going to happen to you in your future
is going to be based on what you say with your mouth today.

Never talk
sickness; talk health all the time. You may be asking. “What about when I feel
the symptoms of sickness?” Yes! Symptoms are lying vanities according to the
Bible; they’re not real; only God’s Word is real and true concerning your
health. So, when you declare health instead of sickness, that’s what you’ll
have. In the same way, don’t talk poverty, talk wealth! All the money you need
in this world is in your mouth! Everything you’ll ever require to live in the
great life of glory that God has ordained for you is right in your mouth.

Therefore use
your mouth right! Speak the right words; never talk yourself down. Speak words
of prosperity, health, and life. That’s the language of the king. Every day,
when you wake up, declare who you are. You’re a success, a victor, a more than
conqueror. Learn to speak the right word – God’s Word about yourself every day.
PRAYER

Father, I thank You for
teaching me to order my tongue to speak the right things only. I realize the
power of my words therefore I choose to speak only that which is consistent
with Your Word and Will concerning my life in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

You are the saviour of the masses.

Jesus is considered by scholars such as Weber ...

IF YOU LIVED ON THE
WORLD’S TERMS, THE WORLD WOULD LOVE YOU AS ONE OF ITS OWN. BUT SINCE I PICKED
YOU TO LIVE ON GOD’S TERMS AND NO LONGER ON THE WORLD’S TERM, THE WORLD IS
GOING TO HATE YOU. (JOHN 15:19 MSG)

Most people
think of what their country can do for them and not what they can do for their
country. Such people are known as the masses. “I don’t understand why we have
bad roads in our country; there is no water and electricity” or “The Government
is not doing enough” they say. You’ll always hear them complain and grumble.

As a child
of God, it’s important you realize that you don’t belong to the masses. The Lord
Jesus testified concerning us that we are not of the masses. You were called out of the masses to save the masses. The moment you
start thinking or talking like the masses, it means you’ve already classed
yourself with them, and society will be more than willing to treat you as such.

When Jesus
brings His Word to you, He locates you among the masses and saves your soul. He
then gives you the Holy Ghost, which automatically separates you from the
masses, to become a saviour of
the masses. Become challenged by the pain and suffering of the other people. When
you see those in need, don’t say, “why doesn’t the government help them”;
rather, think of what you can do to help. Ask yourself, “What can I do?” for
you can do a lot. The Bible shows us that throughout Joseph’s ordeal and pain
which he suffered in the hands of his siblings and boss, he never stopped
helping. This attitude distinguished him from other people and brought him before
Pharaoh. Through his wisdom, the Egyptian empire was preserved during the
famine (Genesis 41:55). Be a helper today; God is counting on you.

You’re the
solution to the problems of the suffering masses of the world. If you would
only become help – conscious, supply to you will never be a problem, God will
channel His grace towards you and you’ll be able to help more and more people
in need. You must distinguish yourself by your way of thinking.

CONFESSION

I am not of the world. I am a citizen
of Zion, called to be a saviour and a solution to the cries of the masses all
over the world. I wake up to my responsibility today, and I declare that my
ability to help others increases everyday in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!
