The God of Christians

“Now it came to pass, in the morning watch, that the Lord looked down upon the army of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and cloud, and He troubled the army of the Egyptians. And He took off their chariot wheels, so that they drove them with difficulty; and the Egyptians said, “Let us flee from the face of Israel, for the Lord fights for them against the Egyptians.” Exodus 14:24-25

The God of the Christians is known to be powerful enough to uproot any power, weapon, institution that goes against His people. The Egyptians in our text were experienced in war, had weapons and capable fighters but when they went against the seemingly weak Israel, the God of Christians caused them to be defeated before Israel. Similar stories abound in the scriptures: David Killed Goliath 1 Samuel 17; Hezekiah defeated Sennarcherib and his 185,000 soldiers 2Kings 19; and Jehoshaphat defeated three great nations that came against him 2 Chronicles 20. When Saul was using the weapon of the state to persecute Christians, the God of the Christians arrested him on the road to Damascus Acts 9. I remember several years ago when I used to assist a Pastor in a “small” church in Ibadan, Nigeria. People of strange religions who were landlords in the area wanted to persecute and uproot the church. They employed the weapons of witchcraft, physical attacks and landlords power to go against our “small” church. We reported them to the God of the Christians and they were subdued before us; the church is standing today. The only time the Christians can suffer in the hand of the enemy is if the Christians themselves are against their God or refuse to cry unto Him for help.

Now when we voted for them, we did not consider their religion, but now they want to use the weapon of the state that we gave to them to persecute us and impose strange religion on our lands. Many Christians have already been displaced and churches burnt and destroyed.  Beloved, it is time we call upon our God to fight for us. If we keep quiet, Nigeria will go back to Egypt. We don’t need to carry physical weapons but we need to activate our spiritual weapons. All physical evidence are subject to spiritual authority which we carry.  2 Corinthians 10: 3-5.

All I am asking you to do is to raise a prayer altar in your homes and your churches against the power persecuting Christians in Nigeria. Take the following prayer points:

That the God of Christians should pass through Nigeria and uproot all personalities, associations, establishments and authorities that want to impose strange religion on Nigeria.

That every wisdom, understanding, and counsel against Christians in Nigeria should be frustrated. Proverbs 21:30

That our God should arise and His enemies in Nigeria be scattered.

That God should visit Nigeria with a new revival of His power and glory.

That all Christians that are presently suffering as a result of physical attacks should be comforted by His miracle power.

ALL IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME.

You are blessed.

Four Foods for Destiny fulfilment

“But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’” Mathew 4:4

Power to live and fulfill destiny is in your “intake.” We all know that a man can die or have kwashiorkor if he does not eat balanced diet. Man is a triune being (1 Thessalonians 5:23), he is a spirit, having a soul and living in a body; and each of these forms of man must be well fed for you to fulfill your destiny

Nutrition: This is the food of the body. Eat well, if you don’t take care of your body, the spirit will leave. However don’t be carried away by food, a lot of people are heavy weight physically but feather weight spiritually and in their mind. Such people turn to be mediocre and failures in life. Man shall not live by bread alone.

Information: Information is the food of the mind, if you are not informed, you will surely be deformed. Ignorance is expensive and deadly. Be informed. When you don’t know, you will be wearied despite your physical strength. Ecclesiastes 10:15

Revelation: Revelation is the food of the spirit. To have revelation is to have power to take. To have revelation is to be empowered to dominate. Revelation is having access to the secret of God Job 29:4. That was what made Job, Daniel, Joseph to excel in life; that is what Jesus said the church needs to beat hell hands down (Mathew 16:17-19). You will surely need it to fulfill destiny.

Impartation: Things that make life to work are not tangible but feasible. They are blessing, wisdom, favour, grace and anointing. Each of these can be imparted. If you lack any of these, life will be stressful and destiny fulfillment will be hard. Spend time with God, attend church fellowship where God is, and connect to men of grace, wisdom and power. 1 Samuel 16:13

Beloved, you are more than this; go for these four things to make news on earth. God bless you.

 

From zero to hero

The king sent and released him, the ruler of peoples set him free. He made him master of his household, ruler over all he possessed” Psalm 105:20-21

Your story can and will change if you know what to do. May be you are struggling at zero level  or you can’t even explain your level, I have good news for you: God specializes in making somebody out of nobody, He did it for Joseph in Psalm 105:20-21, He will do it for you.  Let me share with you four things you should do if you want God to make you an hero out of the zero situation you have found or put yourself now:

Seek God, “But as for me, I would seek God, And to God I would commit my cause—Who does great things, and unsearchable, Marvelous things without number. He gives rain on the earth, And sends waters on the fields. He sets on high those who are lowly, And those who mourn are lifted to safety.”  God will use man for you but stop looking for men, look for God with the whole of your heart Jeremiah 29:13. If you are really serious about changing your level, you must find God first Mathew 6:33. He is the only one who does marvelous things, who  sets on high those who are lowly. He is the one who can command anyone to help you 1Kings 17:9. I suggest you spend at least three hours daily with God,  praising God, reading the bible and praying. I have listed seven prayer points to change your level at the end of this article.

Whatever your hand finds to do, do it well

. Don’t do crime even if you have to go hungry. Don’t say any work is too small or demeaning. Joseph was first the Midianites slave, then Potiphar servant, and then a prisoner before he became prime minister. “Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the realm of the dead

where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.” Ecclesiastes 9:10

Develop yourself. There is no future for anyone who does not have a skill. Go and learn a skill, a job or a business. Better still go to school. In your most lowly time, don’t forget you need to be prepared so as to use the opportunity that comes your way. Somebody says success is when preparation meets opportunity. Woe is that man who is not ready when opportunity comes. “Then one of the servants answered and said, “Look, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, who is skillful in playing, a mighty man of valor, a man of war, prudent in speech, and a handsome person; and the Lord is with him.” 1 Samuel 16:18

Go after your heart desire. If you need a job, apply; if you need a contract, find out how to go about it and go for it. Don’t sit down watching TV, jesting or backbiting around. What you don’t pursue you don’t deserve. “And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where He was. So when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying” mark 2:4. Break through into the fulfillment of your dream in Jesus name.

Beloved, you are not permitted to remain on this level, it is time for the Lion in you to roar. It is time for the hero in you to manifest. Take these steps and see things working for you
