When your best is not enough!

“Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;” Isaiah 54:2 KJV

When your best is not enough, it is exciting to know that your strength can be increased and your capacity can be enlarged. However, the best news is that you can replace your best with God’s best, and you can exchange your strength with God’s strength. In the realm of men, capacity building is through training and learning. In the kingdom, we wait on God to renew our strength and enlarge our capacity.

“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31

“How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.” Acts 10:38

Take responsibility for your enlargement and increase. Pray as if you will never learn. Learn as if you will never pray. When you pray, don’t seek things; seek God. When God shows up, you will have things. Ask God to anoint you and to give you His wisdom and favor.

You shall increase on every side, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, replace my strength with Your strength, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

Invest your time wisely!

 “See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise but understanding what the will of the Lord is.” Ephesians 5:15-17KJV

Time is a currency that you must invest and not waste. The bible says that the way you use your time will determine whether you are wise or a fool. Basically, you must understand what the will of God is and invest your time to do it. If you do, you can never waste time or be a fool. The most foolish thing a man can do is waste time on things that are not the will of God for him. I believe strongly that you will not be a fool if you invest the early hour every day to seek the Lord and His will for your life.

“O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.” Psalms 63:1-2

“And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.” Mark 1:35

Your greatest need is the wisdom, favor, and power of God.  You will really be a wise man if you invest time to get God’s wisdom, favor, and power. This is because if you do, you will not be struggling for what most men struggle for. This was the secret of our Lord Jesus Christ. He would rise up early in the morning to pray, so the day was always fruitful, profitable and productive.

May you be wise in the use of time, in Jesus’ name.

 Prayer for today: Oh God, give me Your wisdom, favour, and power, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

You are gods! 3

“And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.” 2 Kings 2:9KJV

In the realm of men, we learn to become, but in the realm of the spirit, we receive to become (Exodus 31:1–5, 1 Samuel 10:6, 2 Kings 2:15, Acts 1:8, Daniel 5:10–12). If you want to manifest on earth as a god, you must receive the Spirit of God upon your life. You must also receive a word from the Lord. Elisha knew that there was a spirit that was upon Elijah that made him do all that he did. He demanded that the double portion of Elijah's spirit rest on him. Position yourself to receive from God to become a god.

“If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;” John 10:35

“And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.” Luke 24:49

You must tarry in God’s presence until you receive from Him. This is the secret of supernatural life. This is the secret to living like a god on earth. In the realm of men, people invest time to learn to become, so it is in the realm of the spirit, you must invest time to receive. God says you will find Him if you seek Him with the whole of your heart. You must follow those who, through faith and patience, inherit the promise.

May you receive the fullness of God’s Spirit and power, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, anoint me with the Holy Spirit and power, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

You are gods! 2

 “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” Genesis 1:26 KJV

Man was created in God’s image to have dominion on earth. He was created to be the god of this world. One of the ways Adam showed the dominion he had was that he was able to name all animals. This is evidence of operating at the frequency of God’s wisdom on earth. However, Adam lost this position when he succumbed to the deceit of the devil and sought to be “who he was already-a god” by doubting and consequently disobeying God. Then satan became the god of this world and even started boasting about it (Luke 4:6).

“And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.” Genesis 3:4-5

“In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” 2 Corinthians 4:4

Adam was the god of this world before he fell and lost the position to the devil. Jesus came to restore us to that position by bringing us the Word and the Spirit. If you receive a word from God and the fullness of the Holy Spirit, you ascend into the position of a god and do what only gods do on earth.

May you take back your spiritual authority, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, let me become Your sanctuary and Your dominion, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

You are gods! 1

 “I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.” Psalms 82:6 KJV

The revelation that Jesus brought to us was that we are gods as children of the most high God. If you don’t live like a god on earth, you will live and die like a mere man. And if that happens, you have fallen short of your divine destiny.  This means it is important for you to know and experience living like a god on earth. This is the mystery of being on top of all the challenges in this world and fulfilling the purpose of God for our lives. It is normal to have challenges; what is not normal is for challenges to have you.

“The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed, Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked. And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men. And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.” Acts 14:9-12

“Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.” Acts 28:6

In the area where I come from, people worship deities. These are gods and goddesses that have demanded worship and sacrifices from human beings. I discovered that these deities were human beings that lived before but dedicated themselves to satan and his demons, who possessed them. Beloved, we are in a world invaded by spirits. You must allow the Holy Spirit to possess you so that you can live like a god on earth.

May you receive divine authority to live like a god on earth, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, let me walk in the fullness of wisdom and power on earth, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

You are of God!

 “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” 1 John 4:4

There are three revelations about people who have come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. The first is that you are God’s. The second is that you are of God. The third is that you are a god. I shared with you yesterday that you are God's. Let us talk about the truth that you are of God. This means you come from God. You are part of God. You proceed from God. God lives in you. As a result of this truth, you can behave like God, handle things like God, and be an overcomer in all situations.

“What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?” Romans 8:31

“The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.” John 3:8

This revelation has implications. The first implication of this is that there is nothing that comes against you that can defeat you. Secondly, your results in life do not depend on your weakness or your strength, but on your ability to appropriate the strength of God that lives in you. Thirdly, you can handle all things as if it were God handling them. Lastly, you don’t have to walk in fear, doubt, and worry, but have a firm belief that all things will end well.

May you walk in this truth always, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, let Your part in me manifest in every situation I find myself in, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

Whose are you?

“And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord, Israel is my son, even my firstborn: And I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me: and if thou refuse to let him go, behold, I will slay thy son, even thy firstborn.” Exodus 4:22-23 KJV

Remember the son or daughter of whom you are! This will make a lot of difference in the way you respond to any situation. If you are a covenant child of God, He will be jealous over you, deliver you and help you. He told Pharoah, Israel is my firstborn; let him go. Whose you are is more important than who you are. The outcome of whatever challenges you are facing does not depend on the size of the challenge, nor does it depend on your strength. It is determined by who owns you and your knowledge of what He can do.

“For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,” Acts 27:23.

“And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!” Luke 15:17.

Paul was talking confidently about the Angel of God, whose He was, because he knew that it would be as he was told: None of them would die because of the storm. You too will make it because you are a covenant child of God. The turnaround happened in the life of the prodigal son when he realized that his father had abundance. How could he be suffering hunger when whose he was, had more than enough? He simply went back to his father and his story changed. Beloved, if you belong to God and you are sure of it, you cannot lose the battle. The Lord our God, whose we are, is able and will help us in times of need and challenge.

 You are more than conquerors in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, arise and demonstrate your Fatherhood in my life, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

Peace in this tempestuous world

Know what you are dealing with 4

 “Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.” 1 Timothy 4:16 KJV

In the last three days, I have shown us that we are dealing with satan who is behind all attacks. He used deception, ignorance, and men against us. Today, I want to reveal to you that you are dealing with yourself. Yes, yourself. You can be your own greatest enemy, and you can also be your own greatest support. Satan cannot succeed against you if you have conquered yourself and do what you are supposed to do at the time you are supposed to do it. Conquering yourself means you are not lazy, you are disciplined, you are focused, and you are teachable. And in spiritual matters, it means you are not in covenant with the devil, but you activate your covenant with God through fellowship, obedience and sacrifice.

“He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.” Proverbs 25:29

“This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.” Galatians 5:16-17

If you take heed to yourself and build yourself spiritually and physically, satan will always be defeated, whether he sends people or attacks by himself. You must tell your body what to do, not the other way around. The battle within you is greater than that without you because the flesh is always insisting that things must be done in it's own way. If you win the battle within, you will always win the battle without.

You have the victory in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: I receive the Word and the Spirit to be who God wants me to be, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name

Know what you are dealing with 3

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12KJV

One of the greatest deceits of satan is to make you think that you are dealing with human beings. No, human beings are not really your enemies; however, they can be instruments through whom satan attacks you. In all cases of attacks, you are dealing with satan in the form of his demons, who have borrowed human beings as vehicles of operation. You must learn to exercise your authority over the demons behind the scenes.

 “Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee. But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.” Matthew 16:22-23

“And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying: The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation. And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.” Acts 16:16-18

If Peter, who was in close contact with Jesus, could be used by satan to say something, you should know that not all words spoken by men are from them. Some of them allow satan to possess them so that they can harm you. They became scorpions and serpents because they had yielded to demons (Luke 10:19). The damsel possessed by the spirit of divination was grieving the spirit of Paul. The good news is that you have authority to bind them and cast them out.

You have authority in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: I bind every contrary spirit using men against me, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name. 

Know what you are dealing with 2

“Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, HATH GOD SAID, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?” Genesis 3:1 KJV (emphasis mine)

Yesterday, I brought to light the fact that satan will try to either withhold information from you or twist information for you. This is about what God has said. All battles and challenges of life depend on what side you are on with respect to what God said. Satan does not want you to hear God. If you have heard God, satan wants you to doubt the word or disobey the word. He knows he cannot do anything against you if you abide by the word.

“Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.” Matthew 7:24-25

“The sower soweth the word. And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.” Mark 4:14-15

Trouble comes to all, including Christians, but you are not vulnerable until you doubt God’s word. No matter what you are going through, all you need is a word from the Lord. Satan does not have an advantage over you if you can hear God and believe Him. Spend time with God to know His voice. Be hungry for His word. His word is food indeed.                

May you hear God in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, let Your word be alive in my life, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

Know what you are dealing with 1

"The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10 KJV

You are a triune being. You are a spirit; you live in a body, and you have a soul. Any of these can be attacked. It is important for you to know what you are dealing with so that you can protect your body, soul, and spirit. You have one principal enemy, who is satan, although he tries to use many instruments against you. His major activity is to steal, kill and destroy. His major strategy is that of deception and lies. The major battle ground within you is in your soul. The good news is that Jesus has come to give you life and victory over all battles of life.

“And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Thessalonians 5:23

“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.” John 8:44

The primary attack you may suffer is basically about information that is withheld from you or twisted for you. This is the attack of ignorance and lies. Satan uses what people don’t know against them and paints lies as truth. Your deliverance is based on receiving and accepting of truth. Jesus said, you shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free. Study the scriptures to know who you are and your inheritance in Christ Jesus. This is the foundation of winning faith in all battles. Pray for you to have an understanding of God's word and to know the secret of your enemy.

May God sanctify your spirit, soul, and body in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: I flush the seed of the enemy out of soul, and I receive the light of God’s word into my soul, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

The Spirit of Faith

 “We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;” 2 Corinthians 4:13KJV

Are you feeling weak or inadequate? Are you feeling as if you have failed and don't know what to do? I have good news for you: connect to the Spirit of Faith, and your story shall change. This was the Spirit that was in Caleb that made him believe God for the promised land.  This was the Spirit that entered David, brought him out of obscurity, and gave him the boldness to face Goliath. This is the Spirit that possessed all overcomers and winners in life and in destiny (1John 5:4).

“But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it.” Numbers 14:24

 “Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.” 1 Samuel 16:13

 The Spirit of faith is what you receive when you have an encounter with God. The Spirit of faith works by believing God’s word and declaring it. You can receive the Spirit of faith by getting anointed. You can receive the Spirit of faith through fasting and prayer. You can receive the Spirit of faith by meditating on God’s word. You can also receive the Spirit by walking with people who have the Spirit of faith. No matter what you are going through, ask God to give you the Spirit of faith.

Let the Spirit of Faith possess you in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Let the Spirit of Faith possess me, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

More than five senses

 “And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.” 2 Kings 6:17KJV

I shared with us yesterday about the invasion of our world by the spirt-world. The implication of this is that the five senses are not enough. You need the spiritual senses to take care of the happenings in and around you. All that your physical eyes can see are not all that are available to see. All that your physical ears can hear are not all that are available to hear. You must have an opened eyes and ears to handle destiny issues. Your spiritual senses must be active for you to deal with situation.

“Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was sore troubled for this thing; and he called his servants, and said unto them, Will ye not shew me which of us is for the king of Israel?  And one of his servants said, None, my lord, O king: but Elisha, the prophet that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in thy bedchamber.” 2 Kings 6:11-12KJV

“And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.” Luke 24:31KJV

One of the products of not sensing correctly is fear. Gehaz was afraid when he could not see the whole picture. He could only see the enemy but could not see what God has done. You have got to have your spiritual senses active so that you can have the detail of what is going on. That is when you can do the right thing. God’s wisdom is available to those who can connect with Him and see exactly the way He would see things. 

May your spiritual senses be active in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God reveal things to me through Your Holy Spirit, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

The spirit-world in the man-world

 “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12KJV

There is an invasion of the man-world by the spirit-world. You are not neutral. You are either influenced by the dark spirit world or the light spirit world. The spirit personalities from the dark spirit world that have invaded a man’s world are behind his negative behaviors and afflictions. The best way to respond to this is to admit the Holy Spirit into your life and align with Him for your destiny.

“Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?” Romans 6:16KJV

“In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” 2 Corinthians 4:4KJV

When a man rejects the Gospel, he is under the influence of the dark spirit world. Unfortunately, he will be held responsible. This is the reason why we should persuade men through the power of the Holy Spirit (2 Cor 5:11). When you see a man misbehave, he is manifesting the personality that is influencing him. As a believer in Christ, you must be possessed by the Holy Spirit, and then you can deal with the influence and affliction of the dark world. 

May you be anointed by the Holy Spirit in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Holy Spirit possess me, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

The spirit-world in the man-world

Taking authority

“Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Luke 10:19 KJV

One of the indicators that you have accepted the victory given to you by Jesus Christ is the use of the authority He gave you. I cannot emphasize enough the fact that you cannot keep quiet when dealing with the enemy. You must speak like a king, because that is what you are if you are a believer in Christ Jesus. The only way you can exercise the authority given to you is by making a bold declaration. This is why we talk to sickness, and it leaves, and we talk to demons and they leave. We have the authority.

“Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest thou?” Ecclesiastes 8:4KJV

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.” Revelation 5:9-10KJV

Let me tell you this: it is “normal” for anyone who carries something to be attacked; what is not normal is to keep quiet when the enemy is attacking you. It is also normal to fight for your potion; although we do not war after the flesh, we take authority. You grow in authority when you begin to use it. The battle you are facing now is your opportunity to take authority. 

You have victory in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: I take authority over serpents and scorpions and over the power of the enemy, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

Deliverance from self

“Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin. Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:” Romans 6:6-8 KJV

If you are full of yourself, you cannot be full of the Holy Ghost. Stop standing in the way of God to help you. Stop pursuing your own agenda; submit your own agenda to God’s agenda. God does not anoint the "living." He only anoints the “dead.” You must be dead to self and alive to God if you desire all of God in this world. If you desire to be anointed by God, you cannot live in unbelief, unforgiveness, or deliberate sin. Ask God to deliver you from yourself.

 “I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.”  1 Corinthians 15:31KJV

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20 KJV

The message of redemption cannot be complete without the message of “death.” Jesus died for us so that we might live. When He died, our old nature also died with Him, so that we can now live a new life. If you die to self, you will be delivered from the sickness, diseases, and afflictions of the enemy.  

May you be delivered in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, deliver me from myself, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

 “And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.” Hebrews 9:15KJV

God’s packages are delivered through the vehicle of His covenant. This is so significant that even the Bible is a book of covenants, old and new. This is why the easiest way to enjoy God’s blessings is to understand the written word of God and walk in the wisdom and faith that the Bible provides. This is the meaning of “keeping God’s covenant.” God is always committed to His own part of the covenant.

“My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.”  Psalms 89:34KJV

“But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.” Hebrews 8:6 KJV

Attached to every covenant is God’s word. Jesus Christ, the Word became flesh, is the WORD attached to the new covenant. This is why it is superior to all other covenants. If you have a personal revelation of the principles and person of Jesus Christ, you will walk in the new covenant and all its provisions. The new covenants deal with sin, contrary covenants, curses, poverty, infirmity and every other issue that sin gave access to in our lives.

May you walk in the provision of the new covenant in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, deal with rebellion in my heart and restore me into your covenant, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

God is not difficult

A package from the Lord 2

 “And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.” Ezekiel 36:27KJV

God’s package is delivered through His Spirit. When the Holy Ghost comes upon you, you behave like God. A man will always behave like the spirit that is upon him. When you are struggling to do something, you have not received the spirit that makes it happen. No one can successfully live a Christian life without the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the seal of God upon you. You can become a master of an art, a business, a career or a ministry by receiving an impartation of the spirit.

“See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah: And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.”  Exodus 31:2-5KJV

“And the Spirit of the Lord will come upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man.” 1 Samuel 10:6 KJV

 God is willing to give you the gift of the Spirit (Luke 11:13). God wants you to be His witness on earth; you must seek Him and get baptized in the Holy Spirit and power (Acts 1:8). Let God anoint you and bless you. It also takes power to inherit the promises (Luke 24:49). God’s ability is produced in any man through His indwelling Spirit.

May you be anointed by the Holy Ghost in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, endue me with power from on high, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

A package from the Lord 1

“Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee. Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart.” Job 22:22-23KJV

Yesterday, I shared with us that we are receivers and that we must receive from the Lord to make fruitful and positive deliveries of our lives and destiny. Today, I want to share with you that God’s delivery to us comes as a package. They are packaged in His word and in His Spirit. His blessing, anointing, favor, wisdom and power are packaged in His Word and His Spirit. The key to this package is fellowship; you must acquaint yourself with Him. Spend time daily alone with Him, ask Him to send you His word, and baptize you in His Holy Spirit. Do it until you receive this package, and you will walk in the wisdom and power of God.

“Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.”  Philippians 4:6 KJV

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.” Joshua 1:8 KJV

You are properly concerned with many issues of life right now. Sincerely speaking, you don’t need to. But you surely need to receive His package for you to be well equipped to handle the issues of life and fit into the divine assignment for your life. Why should you worry about hunger when you can simply eat to kill the hunger? You are actually worried about the things of this world because you are hungry. Eat the word daily until you are satisfied! (Job 22:22–28, Matthew 4:4, Psalms 107:20, Psalm 119:130, John 10:35, Matthew 6:25–33).

May the word of the Lord come to you in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, empower me to be who You want me to be, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name. 

We are receivers!

 “John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.” John 3:27KJV

One thing you must understand about human beings, including yourself, is that we are receivers first before we become givers, although it is giving that multiplies us.  You must receive training to deliver results in any field of endeavor. This is why organizations train you to deliver. You must receive from the Lord if you desire to fulfill your destiny. We receive to become; we become to impart others. You must hunger for the blessing, the anointing, the favor, and the wisdom of God in your life.

“Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.”  James 4:2-3KJV

“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.” Matthew 7:7-8KJV

I know a lot of us want changes in our lives.  If you understand this message, you will know how to get the change you desire. You must position yourself to receive from the Lord, and you don’t have to worry about the change. Change will come when you receive. The problem is that a lot of us do not know what we really need (Acts 3:1–6). Ask God to reveal to you what your destiny needs.

May you receive from the Lord in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, fill me with Your wisdom and power, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

The boldness in righteousness

 “The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.” Proverbs 28:1KJV

You know the kind of boldness you display when you know your job very well. This is a picture of the boldness you will display if you know God and walk in His will. Righteousness is standing on God’s word. The boldness of a righteous man is likened to the boldness of a lion. In fact, we, Christians, belong to a lion tribe; the lion of the tribe of Judah is our Senior Brother. The best thing you can do for your life and destiny is to know God’s word and walk in it. Righteousness is inputed to us through the knowledge of Jesus Christ; the Word became flesh Himself. Our righteousness is covenant-based.

“And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.”  Daniel 11:32KJV

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” genesis 1:26KJV

Pray until you hear God and gain access into the mystery of His word. This is how to access boldness in righteousness. You become unshakable and immovable in all situations. You take charge even in the midst of your enemies. This is the gain of true righteousness. It is a life of dominion.

May you walk in boldness in Jesus’ name.

Prayer for today: Holy Ghost, help me to hear You clearly and to understand and walk in the Word, in Jesus’ name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.
