Your 'daughter' is not dead

“….’The child isn’t dead, she is only asleep” Mk 5:39.
New Living Translation

Jairus’ daughter was sick. He went to get Jesus to
heal her but before Jesus came, the girl was
physically dead. People gathered and pretended to be
sympathizing with Jairus. But when Jesus arrived, He
told them a statement which did not come as a result
of physical observation but spiritual insight. The
response of the sympathizer revealed that they were
pretenders and they were actually happy that the girl
was dead. But the Lord came in, spoke the word and the
dead girl came alive.

May be you are presently in Jairus shoes in your job,
marriage, career, business, finance or Ministry. You
prayed seriously when things started going bad and it
seems presently that it has grown so worst that there
is no hope of survival. And people are already doing
‘sympathizer drama’ for you. Hear the word of the Lord
“ Your ‘daughter’ is not dead,” you will have her back
alive. That marriage, career, business, ministry will
come back alive. There will be restoration. Your dry
bone shall rise again. Your hair shall grow again.
Begin to look at that your ‘daughter’ with the eye of
the word of God and not physical eyes. For the Bible
says: “….For the troubles we see will soon be over…”
2Cor 4:18 New Living Translation.

What made Jairus daughter to come back to life was
that Jesus came in and spoke the word. It is the same
key that will turn your situation around. I called the
keys, The Spirit and The Word. It was the Spirit and
the Word that gave shape to this formless earth. Every
miracle happens when the Spirit moves and the Word is
spoken.
This is what you are going to do:
1. Ask the Spirit to move over your ‘daughter’
2. Speak the Word to ‘her’ Speak it until it happens.
Just the same way dry bones responded to the voice of
Ezekiel, the same way Jairus daughter responded to the
word of the Lord Jesus. Your own ‘daughter’ will
respond to your word.
I ask the Spirit of God to move over your marriage,
business, career, ministry and finances. I command a
total restoration in the name of Jesus.
Have a nice day.

The Speaking Life

“There was a believer in Joppa named Tabitha (which in Greek is Dorcas). She was always doing kind things for others and helping the poor” Act 9:36 New Living Translation.

You life can only continue to speak through lives that you have changed and impacted.

A Chinese proverb says “If you want one year of prosperity, grow grain. If you want ten years of prosperity grow trees. If you want one hundred years prosperity, grow people”

I was in an uncle’s burial last Saturday. The Pastor asked the people who this man sponsored to stand up and come forward. It surprised me that more than 50 people came out, they were wearing the same dress. This people don’t bear the name of the man but yet he fed them and sent them to school. I told someone sitting beside me that this man did not die but lives on. His life shall continue to speak through those lives he touched.

Beloved, what are you doing with what God has blessed you. Your financial, material and spiritual involvement in someone’s life can change that life forever.

I challenge you to grow people, the reward will last forever.

Unknown Commitments

“And all the people yelled back, “We will take responsibility for his death – we and our children!” Mathew 27: 25 (New Living Translation).

I pray for you that every yoke of unknown commitments over your life be broken in Jesus name.

A Pastor told us the story of one of his members who unknown to her before her birth had been committed to the idol of her father’s house. The commitment was that if the baby was a boy, he would become the priest of the idol but if it was a girl, she would marry the priest of the idol. The baby turned out to be a girl and consequently at the age of 39, no man has ever asked her hand in marriage. Thank God because the Lady was set free by the power that is in the name of Jesus and today she is happily married.

The Jews committed themselves and their children to the death of Jesus Christ. The consequence is still in their midst today despite the fact that the death of Jesus is God’s design to save the world.

Are you going through strange experiences, troubles or difficulties as a result of commitments made on your behalf by your parents or ancestors? The power in the name of Jesus will set you free. Read Col 2:14-15 and pray this prayer point: I cancel every unknown commitment and covenant working against my life with the blood of Jesus in Jesus name.

It is well with you.

Hearing God

“And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers” John 10:5.

If you are not hearing God, then He is a stranger to you.

God can choose to speak to you through any means. You cannot decide the way God would speak to you but you must be having consistent fellowship with him to hear and know His voice. If He is a stranger to you despite the fact that you are born again, you cannot know His voice.

Most husbands and wives can recognize the voice of their spouses even among the crowd. It was not like that before they got married. But as a result of dwelling together, they became familiar with one another.

Beloved, are you spending time daily with God? Don’t be too busy to fellowship personally with Him because your ability to hear and know His voice depends on this.

Remain blessed.
