Don’t do it without me, Oh God!

“Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.” Isaiah 6:8

Oh Lord, as You move in this generation, let me be Your vessel—don’t do it without me! Could this be your heart cry? Most of us do not know that just as we need God to fulfil our destiny, He also need us for His plan on earth. Just as Isaiah responded, "Here am I; send me," (Isaiah 6:8), you must stand ready, willing to be used for God's purposes. When we commit our lives to God's work, He does not just use us; He blesses and establishes us. In the same way He called Moses from the burning bush (Exodus 3:4), Samuel in the temple (1 Samuel 3:10), and Gideon from the threshing floor (Judges 6:12-14), God is calling on you to make me you a part of His mighty plans. Ask Him to use you to impact this generation. When you become a willing instrument in the hands of God, some challenges will naturally fizzle away..

You remember what Jesus did with the donkey, bound and unknown. He released the tied donkey for His purpose (Luke 19:30-34) and turned it from obscurity to glory, bring it out of limitations holding it back and placing it where He needed it. God can do the same with Your life. You can be an apostle in the market place or an intercessor who stands in the gap (Ezekiel 22:30) and join in the great harvest. You can be part of  those who will bring God's message of salvation and hope to a hurting world. You can also be a financier just like the women who were available to put down fund for the ministry of Jesus (Luke 8:2-3). In any case you can be God's hands, God's voice, God's heart in this world. May your heart echo the cry of Habakkuk, waiting and watching to see what God will say and what assignment He has for you (Habakkuk 2:1).

Prophetic word: The Lord is stirring up a generation that will carry His glory and His purposes in these last days, and He is calling you to be a part of this movement. The Spirit of God says, "I am looking for those who are fully surrendered, those who will answer, ‘Here am I, send me!’ As you align yourself with My heart and My ways, I will take you from obscurity and place you in divine assignments that will bring transformation and light to those in darkness. Fear not, for My grace and provision will follow you. I am equipping you with strength, wisdom, and anointing to fulfill My purposes. In areas where you have felt unseen and overlooked, I am now bringing you into the fullness of My calling for your life. Be ready, be watchful, for I am preparing to do a new thing through you—don’t miss it! Stay yielded, and I will reveal to you the path of life.”

Prayer: Father, I thank You for Your calling and for the plans You have to use me for Your purposes in this generation. I ask, Lord, that You make my heart fully surrendered to You. Let nothing hold me back from following You wholeheartedly and being a part of Your end-time harvest. Anoint me afresh, Lord, and equip me with wisdom, courage, and strength to step into the assignments You have prepared for me. Open my ears to hear Your voice and my eyes to see where You are leading. Lord, if there is any area of my life tied down by fear, doubt, or distraction, release me as You released the donkey, bringing me into the fullness of Your purpose. Don’t do it without me, Lord—let me walk in step with You. Use me to bring Your light and love to those who need it most, for Your glory alone. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Don’t do it without God!

“Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.” John 15:4

Every step you take without Him is like a branch trying to bear fruit without the vine. God’s presence is essential for strength, guidance, and true success, as illustrated by Jesus’ words in John 15:4. Like a vine gives life to its branches, so does God empower and sustain us in every endeavor. Moses understood this dependency deeply. When God called him to lead Israel through the wilderness, Moses refused to move forward without God’s presence, saying in Exodus 33:15, “If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.” He knew that without God, their journey would be futile.

The Bible offers many examples of what happens when people sought God’s guidance and those who didn’t. When Joshua led Israel against the city of Ai without seeking God’s direction, Israel suffered a humbling defeat (Joshua 7). They underestimated the enemy and overlooked sin within their own ranks, which only God could have revealed. In contrast, David always consulted God before every battle, and his reliance on God ensured his victories (1 Samuel 23:2, 2 Samuel 5:19). Even Elijah, empowered by God, outran a chariot (1 Kings 18:46). The power of partnering with God is unmatched. Through daily fellowship with Him, we gain wisdom, strength, and clarity beyond our human ability. So, no matter the size of the challenge, remember that with God’s presence, victory is always certain.

Prophetic word: Do not go alone, for My presence shall be your strength and guide. In this season, I am calling you to deeper dependence on Me, to a place where your plans are no longer based on your own understanding but are established by My Spirit. Even in what appears small or insignificant, I am the source of your victory. Just as I led Israel, just as I went before David, I am going before you now to prepare the way, to bring down obstacles, and to release blessings that only come through My hand. I am your strength and shield; stay close to Me, and I will turn every battle into a victory, every obstacle into an opportunity, and every fear into faith. You will move forward, not in your own might but empowered by My Spirit.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, we come before You, acknowledging that without You, we are nothing. Thank You for being our strength, our wisdom, and our guide. We surrender every plan, every decision, and every struggle into Your hands. Help us to abide in You daily, to seek Your presence in all things, and to trust You fully. May Your Spirit lead us, and may Your power rest upon us in every challenge we face. Father, grant us the humility to consult You and the courage to follow where You lead. Surround us with Your presence, go before us, and let Your hand be upon us. In every situation, great or small, let us not move without Your direction. We declare that You are our victory and our foundation. In Jesus' mighty name, Amen.

Your deliverance is sure!

“Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.” Psalms 34:19KJV

The righteous is the one who stands on the word of God. If you stand on God’s word, God shall deliver you from all your afflictions. God’s word is surer than anything in this world. God is true and every man is a liar including all the facts that are against you (Romans 3:4). No matter be the case, declare God’s word only. Don’t complain, don’t murmur, and don’t speak against yourself. You will be standing at the end of it all (Matthew 7:24-25).

God's deliverance is both sure and complete. He didn’t leave the three Hebrew boys, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, to perish in the fiery furnace, but instead walked with them through the fire, ensuring they were unharmed (Daniel 3:25-27). Just as Jesus calmed the storm for His disciples and delivered them from fear and danger (Mark 4:39), He will calm the storms in your life. He is unchanging and reliable. Trust that He sees your struggles and will bring you through them all, turning them into a powerful testimony. In Jesus’ name, your victory is certain.

Prophetic word: I see the struggles you’re going through, the weight of what has come against you, but know this: I am your Deliverer, and I am near. Just as I brought victory to those who trusted in Me, I will bring victory to you. I am breaking the chains, lifting the burdens, and making a way where there seems to be no way. Stand firm and keep your eyes on Me, for I am working in ways you do not yet see. I am aligning circumstances, shifting obstacles, and preparing blessings beyond what you can imagine. Do not fear; I am with you, and you will come out of this stronger, with a testimony that will glorify My name.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your promises and Your faithful love. I stand on Your word that says You deliver Your people from all their troubles. Today, I surrender every burden, every challenge, and every fear into Your hands. I trust that You are working powerfully on my behalf, breaking every chain and clearing every path. Let Your peace fill my heart, and let Your strength rise within me. I declare by faith that my deliverance is at hand, and I will see Your salvation in every area of my life. Thank You, Lord, for the victory that is mine in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Against all odds!

“So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.” 1 Samuel 17:50KJV

God has shown His power to deliver His people time and again, even when situations seemed impossible. When the Israelites stood trapped between the Red Sea and Pharaoh's advancing army, God told Moses to lift his staff, and He miraculously parted the waters, making a way where there was no way (Exodus 14:21-22). Against all odds, they walked through on dry ground. Similarly, the walls of Jericho fell flat not because of Israel’s strength but because they obeyed God’s unusual instruction to march and shout (Joshua 6:20). God’s power to bring victory is not limited by human logic or circumstances. Just like David, who overcame the giant Goliath with only a sling and a stone, we are reminded that it is our faith in God—not our tools or abilities—that brings us through against all odds.

Believing God transforms our perspective and strengthens us to hold fast to His promises, no matter the situation. Abraham, against all odds, believed that God would fulfill His promise of making him the father of many nations, despite his old age and Sarah’s barrenness (Romans 4:18-21). When Paul faced a deadly storm at sea, he told the crew, “I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me” (Acts 27:25). God’s faithfulness remains unshaken by adversity, and His word is true despite any obstacle. Trust Him, and against all odds, you will see His promise fulfilled in your life. Whether it’s in health, finances, relationships, or dreams, God is working to bring you to an expected end (Jeremiah 29:11). So stand firm, for your story is changing against all odds in Jesus' name.

Prophetic word: Do not be afraid or discouraged by the obstacles before you, for I am with you, and I am greater than any opposition you face. Just as I was with David against Goliath, Moses at the Red Sea, and Paul in the storm, I am with you to bring you through victorious. Stand firm in your faith, for I am shifting situations in your favor and bringing forth a breakthrough. Against all odds, I am lifting you up, restoring you, and fulfilling My promises to you. Trust in Me completely, for I have already secured your victory.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of faith and gratitude. We thank You for Your faithfulness and for the assurance that You are with us even in the face of the impossible. Lord, strengthen us to stand firm, to believe in Your promises, and to trust Your timing. We pray for courage, like David, to face our giants with confidence in You. We declare that, against all odds, we are victorious in Jesus’ name. Every mountain before us will move, every storm will cease, and every promise You’ve made will come to pass. Thank You, Lord, for turning situations around and bringing us to the expected end You have planned. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.

Weep no more!

“For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee.” Isaiah 30:19KJV

I do not know what has brought tears to your eyes but hear the word from the Lord: weep no more. The origin of your tears and sorrows shall dry up. God is meeting you at the point of your need. He is gracious to you and answers your prayers. This is because, as a child of God, you dwell in the spiritual Zion where weeping and mourning are not allowed. In Luke 7:12, A widow who had lost her husband also lost her only son. On the way to the burial, they met the only one who wiped away tears, Jesus, the anointed one. There was no previous relationship with Him, yet Jesus told her weep no more and commanded the dead son to come alive. How much more you that you are a joint heir with Him, having been received into the family of the beloved through His death and resurrection.

Consider the story of Hannah in 1 Samuel 1:10-20. In deep anguish, she wept bitterly before the Lord, praying for a child. In response to her heartfelt cry, God remembered her and blessed her with Samuel, transforming her sorrow into joy. As He answered Hannah, the Lord will answer you and turn your tears into testimony. Throughout His ministry, Jesus brought comfort to the broken-hearted (Luke 4:18). In John 11, when Lazarus died, Mary and Martha wept in sorrow, but Jesus, moved by their grief, demonstrated His power over death and brought Lazarus back to life. Jesus understands our sorrows and responds compassionately, transforming our grief into joy, even today.

Prophetic word: My child, the season of sorrow and despair is ending, and I am bringing a new dawn of joy, restoration, and peace into your life. I have heard every cry, seen every tear, and felt every pain in your heart. Even in the moments when you felt most alone, I was there, holding you, waiting to bring you into a time of rejoicing. I am the God who restores and redeems, and I am causing every broken area in your life to be renewed. Just as I restored joy to the widow at Nain, so am I restoring joy to you. Know that I am with you, and I am answering the deep cries of your heart. Trust in Me, for I am doing a new thing; I am making a way where there seemed to be none, and I am turning your mourning into dancing. Prepare for joy, for your weeping season is over, and you shall see My goodness in the land of the living.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I stand on the promise that You will wipe away every tear. I pray that Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, will fill my heart and mind. Lord, bring comfort to every source of sorrow, and let the roots of despair be uprooted completely by Your love and power. You are the God who turns ashes into beauty and mourning into joy; I ask that You transform every sorrowful situation in my life into a testimony of Your faithfulness. Release Your joy over me and let hope arise, filling me with a renewed sense of purpose and peace. May I see Your hand at work and feel Your presence in my life, knowing that You are a loving Father who never fails. Thank You for answering my prayers and for the assurance that my weeping has come to an end. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Battles of the tongue!

“No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.” Isaiah 54:17 KJV

A tongue is a weapon, and spiritual battles are won by engaging the tongue correctly. The scripture reminds us of the importance of using the tongue wisely and assertively. Most battles that people go through are battles of the tongue.  Isaiah 54:17 assures us that no weapon, including the weapon of the tongue, will prosper against God’s people. When faced with judgments or curses issued against us, we must respond with the authority given by God, just as David did in 1 Samuel 17:42-47 when he spoke against Goliath’s curses. David’s words were not mere talk; they were declarations of faith that brought victory. Similarly, Proverbs 18:21 teaches that “death and life are in the power of the tongue,” affirming that our words can alter spiritual realities. We can choose to speak life over our circumstances and renounce words spoken in opposition to God’s plan for us. By declaring God’s word, we engage in the spiritual warfare that transforms situations and silences accusations.

The tongue can carry blessings or curses, depending on how we wield it (Numbers 22:7, 23:20). Balaam, for instance, was commissioned to curse Israel but instead found himself blessing them, demonstrating that the power of the tongue, under divine authority, is unstoppable. Our words should be backed by the anointing and power of God (Isaiah 61:1) so that when we speak, it carries fire, as in Jeremiah 5:14. Speaking God’s word is a crucial weapon against the enemy (Isaiah 50:4) and declaring scriptures strengthens our position in spiritual warfare. As we engage the tongue in this way—blessing, declaring, and speaking God’s word—we align ourselves with His promises and overcome every negative judgment spoken against us.

Prophetic word: "I have anointed your tongue with the power to speak life, declare victory, and break every word spoken against you in judgment. Stand firm, for I have placed My words in your mouth, and no curse, accusation, or false judgment will prosper over you. Just as I strengthened David to face Goliath, so I have empowered you to face every challenge with confidence. Your words, aligned with My Spirit, will tear down strongholds and build a path to victory. I am your shield, and every tongue that rises against you in judgment shall be silenced. Declare My promises boldly, for I am with you, and I have already given you victory."

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You for the power You have placed in my tongue. I ask for Your anointing upon my words that they may carry the authority to destroy every stronghold and silence every accusation raised against me. Lord, let my tongue be a weapon of righteousness, declaring Your word with fire and faith. I rebuke every negative word, every curse, and every lie that has been spoken over my life, and I release Your blessings and promises over my life. Father, strengthen me to use my words to speak life, hope, and truth. Help me stand confidently in the knowledge that no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and may Your Spirit guide every word I speak. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Fear not

“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” Isaiah 41:10 KJV

Fear not, for God has promised to be with you, strengthen and help you. It does not matter if what is confronting you seems bigger than you; God has promised to be with you, and He is bigger than all. In Joshua 1:9, God commanded Joshua, "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." The promises God made to His people back then remain true for you today. Stand firm and trust that He will make a way through every challenge. I sense a change of season for you; don’t be afraid of any opposition.

Fear may try to grip your heart; don’t give room to it, but remember that God’s love is perfect and casts out all fear (1 John 4:18). David, a young shepherd facing the giant Goliath, declared his confidence in the Lord when he said, “The Lord who rescued me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will rescue me from the hand of this Philistine” (1 Samuel 17:37). He did not allow fear to dominate him. Still, he stood firm in faith, and God delivered him. The same God who was with David is with you now. Trust in His word, believe in His promises and go forward in boldness. As you prepare to enter this new season, know that He goes before you, strengthening and upholding you.

Prophetic word: “Fear not, for I am with you, and My hand will uphold you through every season. What lies before you may seem uncertain, but I have gone ahead of you to prepare the way. This year, I will give you strength beyond measure and peace that surpasses understanding. The challenges you face will become stepping stones to greater faith and victory. Trust Me, for I am your God, the One who commands the wind and calms the storm. Do not be discouraged, for I am releasing a new grace upon you—an anointing for breakthrough, an anointing to overcome. Believe My promises, and you will see My faithfulness manifest in ways beyond your imagination. In your weakness, I am your strength, and in your uncertainty, I am your assurance. Fear not, for I am making a way for you.”

Prayer: Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your faithfulness and for the assurance that You are always with us. We surrender our fears and doubts to You, asking that Your perfect love would cast out every fear from our hearts. Strengthen us, Lord, to walk by faith and not by sight, trusting fully in Your promises. Let Your peace guard our minds and hearts as we step into the new year. We pray for fresh courage, boldness, and a spirit of unwavering trust in Your word. Father, let this be a season of breakthroughs and divine intervention. As we place our lives in Your hands, let every obstacle turn into an opportunity for Your glory to shine through. We declare victory in every area of our lives and thank You for the miracles and testimonies ahead. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

The complete story

“Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;” Colossians 2:14KJV

Something was written against you, but that is not the complete story.  The complete story is that what was written against you was taken out of the way at Calvary. At Calvary, Jesus took upon Himself all that the law condemned us for, erasing our sins and liberating us from every charge. No accusation can bind us because Jesus has cleared our record, fulfilling Isaiah 1:18, where God says, "Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow." The power of Christ’s sacrifice removes every obstacle, giving us the freedom to live in the righteousness and victory He has provided. Please, don't allow what has been taken out to stagnate you. This is the time of spiritual legislation (Isaiah 41:21).

This freedom calls for active faith and spiritual authority. As believers, we have the responsibility to stand firm in the victory Christ has won and reject anything that would attempt to hinder us. Isaiah 41:21 encourages us to "present our case" to God, reminding Him of His promises. In the same spirit as Paul when he appealed to Caesar in Acts 25:11, we can approach our Heavenly Father, appealing to His justice and mercy through Christ's sacrifice. Let us boldly "come to the throne of grace" (Hebrews 4:16) and declare that our story is one of freedom, grace, and victory. Jesus has won it all for us; therefore, we live not in condemnation but in the power of His resurrection (Romans 8:1). Enforce the finished work of Christ, claiming your new life and purpose in Him.

Prophetic word: The Lord declares to you today that your past is no longer an obstacle. What was once written against you, every accusation, every failure, and every shame, has been removed by the blood of Jesus. No longer will these things have power over your life, for He has blotted them out and nailed them to His cross. The Lord says, "Step into the freedom I have given you. Do not look back or let the shadows of yesterday define you. I am doing a new thing in your life (Isaiah 43:18-19), breaking every chain that held you captive." This is your time to move forward in faith, to see doors open that no one can shut, and to live in the fullness of the victory I have secured for you. Walk confidently in your purpose, for I have rewritten your story with My grace and favor.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You for the powerful, liberating work of the cross. Thank You, Jesus, for blotting out every ordinance written against me and removing every accusation that stood in my way. I receive Your victory over every area of my life, and I declare that nothing from my past will hold me back. Lord, I ask that You strengthen my spirit to walk boldly in the freedom You have given me. Fill me with courage to claim the promises and victories You have prepared for me. Help me to see myself as You see me—redeemed, forgiven, and empowered to fulfill my purpose. In Jesus' name, I come against every hindrance and every fear, and I proclaim that I am a new creation in You. May Your Spirit guide me daily as I live out this victorious life. Amen.

Speak as if you already have it!

“(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.”Romans 4:17 KJV

The principle of “speaking as if you have it” turns around seemingly impossible situations, transforming obstacles into opportunities for God's glory. Believers speak as if it is done (2 Cor 4:13). When we speak in faith, we align our words with God's promises and operate as though His word is already fulfilled. Romans 4:17 tells us that God “calleth those things which be not as though they were,” demonstrating that faith is rooted in declaring God's truth even before it becomes visible. In Mark 11:23-24, Jesus emphasized the power of speaking faith-filled words, saying that if we believe in our heart and speak without doubt, we can move mountains. Like Abraham, who was called "the father of many nations," even when he had no child, we must declare God's promises as realities, trusting in His timing and power.

Throughout scripture, God's people demonstrated the power of faith declarations. David boldly spoke of his victory over Goliath before the battle even began (1 Samuel 17:46), and his words aligned with God's purpose, bringing triumph. Caleb, when faced with opposition, declared, “Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it” (Numbers 13:30), refusing to allow doubt to enter his heart. Likewise, in the middle of a fierce storm, Paul assured those with him, “Be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but of the ship” (Acts 27:25), speaking life and hope amid fear. Let us also speak as if God’s promises are already fulfilled, declaring His victory, provision, and deliverance in every area of our lives.

Prophetic word: The Lord is calling you to step out and speak boldly as though His promises are already yours. He is reminding you that His word never returns void; it will accomplish what He sends it to do (Isaiah 55:11). This is a season of manifesting the unseen by faith. Even now, God is shifting things in your favor, moving behind the scenes to bring His promises to pass. As you speak His word, heaven is aligning with your declarations, and doors that seemed closed are opening. He is empowering you to see beyond the natural and to call forth what He has promised as though it is already done. Like Abraham, you are called to believe beyond what you see, for He who promised is faithful. Embrace this season, speak with authority, and prepare to witness the fulfillment of His promises in ways that exceed your expectations.

Prayer: Father, I thank You for Your unfailing promises and the power of Your word. I stand in faith, speaking as though Your promises have already been fulfilled in my life. Lord, give me the courage to declare victory over every battle, to speak life where death seems to be, and to see with eyes of faith (Mark 5:36). I declare that every obstacle in my path is removed, and I walk into Your promises with boldness. Holy Spirit, remind me of Your word daily, helping me to speak it with conviction and expectancy. Let my faith rise like David before Goliath, like Caleb ready to possess the land, and like Paul who trusted in Your protection amid the storm. Thank You, Father, that as I declare Your word, You are faithful to bring it to pass. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Attitude is everything! 2

“While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:18KJV

Your attitude plays a crucial role in overcoming challenges. Your attitude must reveal faith and trust in God’s promises. The Bible teaches us to focus on the unseen, eternal truths rather than on temporary circumstances (2 Corinthians 4:18). Consider the story of David when he faced Goliath (1 Samuel 17:45). Despite Goliath’s intimidating size and reputation, David’s attitude of faith was unwavering. He focused not on the giant before him but on God’s power to deliver him. David declared, “I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts,” with this faith, he conquered Goliath. His attitude of confidence in God’s unseen strength transformed the situation, proving that a heart set on God can overcome any visible challenge.

Similarly, the woman with the issue of blood in Mark 5:28 displayed an attitude of faith. She believed that merely touching Jesus' garment would bring her healing. This unseen conviction drove her bold action, and her faith made her whole. Like her, we are called to focus on what is unseen—faith and God’s promises—rather than visible obstacles. By meditating on scriptures (Joshua 1:8, Romans 10:17) and keeping our hearts aligned with God’s truth, we can maintain a strong attitude that triumphs over temporary situations. No matter what you’re facing, remember that with the right attitude rooted in faith, all things are possible.

Prophetic word: “Do not be moved by what you see, for I am working in ways beyond your understanding. Your faith and attitude this season are making way for breakthroughs you have not yet imagined. Though the situation may appear difficult, I am building resilience and strength within you. As you focus on My promises and keep your thoughts aligned with My Word, you are opening doors no one can shut. Just as I transformed the situations of David, the Shunammite woman, and the woman with the issue of blood, I will change your circumstances. Stand firm in faith, for I am with you, and I am turning things around for your good. Believe in what I am about to do, for this is a season of shifting and divine intervention.”

Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for reminding me that my attitude rooted in faith is more powerful than any situation I face. I ask for the strength to keep my eyes on Your promises and not on the challenges around me. Help me to believe beyond what I see, and to hold onto Your Word in my heart. Lord, I declare that as I walk in faith, my life aligns with Your divine plans, and every obstacle is transformed into a testimony. I release every doubt, fear, and worry into Your hands. I trust that You are working all things together for my good and that, as I stay focused on You, I will see victory. In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.

Attitude is everything! 1

 “While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:18KJV

Your attitude is indeed more important than any circumstance you face. Make sure you align your attitude with God’s unseen, unchanging promises. If you do, your circumstances will soon change to match the unseen promises of God. As Hebrews 11:1 says, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." This faith is more powerful than any visible reality and enables you to look beyond the temporary to the eternal. When faced with the impossible, like Abraham and Sarah waiting for a child in their old age, they didn’t stagger at God’s promise. Instead, they held a steadfast attitude of belief, which brought God’s promise to fruition (Romans 4:20-21). Their unwavering attitude allowed them to receive what was humanly impossible.

Remember that your attitude shapes your outcomes and attracts God's intervention. When Jairus faced the devastating news that his daughter had died, Jesus told him, “Do not be afraid; only believe” (Mark 5:36). Jairus's decision to trust, rather than yield to despair, led to a miraculous resurrection. Similarly, in 2 Kings 4, the Shunammite woman declared, “It is well,” despite her grief, because she believed in God’s power to restore. Like her, focus on the unseen promises of God and hold firm to a positive, faith-filled attitude, knowing that with God, every fact is subject to change. As you meditate on His word (Joshua 1:8) and renew your mind daily (Romans 12:2), you’ll see the truth of His promises unfold, transforming even the most difficult situations.

Prophetic word: "Lift your eyes above the temporary trials and set your heart on My promises. I am the One who sees beyond what is seen, who calls things that are not as though they are (Romans 4:17). My plans for you are good, and My thoughts towards you are peace (Jeremiah 29:11). Do not let your heart be troubled by the circumstances that appear insurmountable, for I am working behind the scenes to bring forth victory. As you hold onto faith and a steadfast spirit, I will turn every impossibility into a testimony. Just as I revived the dead and called life from barren places, I will bring you restoration, provision, and new beginnings. Keep your attitude fixed on My Word, for it is the anchor that will hold you steady and bring forth My power in your life. Watch as I turn things around in ways that will leave you in awe of My glory.”

Prayer: Father, I thank You for Your Word, which is a firm foundation and unshakable truth. I pray for the grace to keep my heart and mind anchored in Your promises, to lift my eyes above the circumstances, and see with the eyes of faith. Lord, renew my spirit and help me to stand firm, trusting You to make a way where there seems to be none. Just as You resurrected Jairus's daughter, restore anything lost or broken in my life. Give me the courage to declare, “It is well,” knowing that You are faithful and Your timing is perfect. Lord, let my attitude of faith draw Your power and make room for Your miraculous intervention. I surrender every challenge into Your hands, and I declare that I will see Your goodness in the land of the living. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Reaching out to Jesus

“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Hebrews 11:6KJV

God is always faithful in honoring those who reach out to Him with unwavering belief. The Scripture shows how He responds to hearts full of faith and earnest seeking. In Mark 5:28, the woman with the issue of blood, despite the crowd and her weakness, reached out, believing that a single touch of Jesus' garment would heal her. And indeed, her faith was rewarded instantly with wholeness. Similarly, in Mark 2:3-5, four friends, driven by faith and compassion, broke through a roof to lower their paralyzed friend into Jesus' presence, and Jesus responded by healing and forgiving. These acts of faith demonstrate that when we are intentional and determined to reach out to Jesus, we open the door to His miraculous power and mercy.

God’s promise to reveal Himself to those who seek Him wholeheartedly is echoed in Jeremiah 29:13: “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” This is an invitation to know Him more deeply, as He rewards those who pursue Him with a genuine desire. When we ask for divine revelation and wisdom, we are blessed with insight and the authority that comes from knowing Christ, as mentioned in Matthew 16:16-19. Seek His guidance and power in every area of life, trusting He will respond and reward your faith. Just as He did for those who came to Him with expectancy, He will meet you in your place of need and reward you with His presence, healing, and provision.

Prophetic word: The Lord says, "Do not let doubt or discouragement keep you from reaching out to Me. Just as I responded to those who sought Me with faith and determination, I am ready to respond to you. I always draw near to those who draw near to Me, who will not let anything hinder their faith. I am the God who rewards the diligent and turns persistence into results. As you seek Me with your whole heart, I will reveal Myself in new ways, unveiling My power and wisdom in your life. Reach out boldly; I have prepared breakthroughs, healing, and wisdom to strengthen and sustain you. Let faith be the fuel that drives you forward, for I am here, ready to meet every need, bless, and make whole."

Prayer: Father, I thank You for being a rewarder to those who diligently seek You. Today, I come before You in faith, asking that You reward me with Your presence and power. Lord, just as the woman touched Your garment in faith, I reach out to You, asking for healing, provision, and wisdom in every area of my life. Help me to remove every doubt, every barrier that keeps me from You, and fill me with a heart that seeks You wholeheartedly. I pray for Your presence to fill my life, bringing clarity where there is confusion, strength where there is weakness, and peace where there is unrest. Thank You, Lord, for Your promises and Your unfailing love. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Identity matters

“And he stood and cried unto the armies of Israel, and said unto them, Why are ye come out to set your battle in array? am not I a Philistine, and ye servants to Saul? choose you a man for you, and let him come down to me.” 1 Samuel 17:8KJV

Identity is a powerful theme woven throughout the Bible, revealing how understanding who we are in God shapes our purpose and strength. When Goliath confronted Israel, he attempted to redefine their identity, calling them “servants of Saul” rather than the army of the living God. For forty days, the Israelites were paralyzed by fear until David, grounded in his identity as God’s servant, arrived. David’s courage was rooted not in his physical strength but in his understanding of who he was and whose he was. He boldly declared Goliath to be an “uncircumcised Philistine” who dared to defy the army of God (1 Samuel 17:36), turning the narrative around and reminding Israel of their true identity. Knowing that we belong to God shifts our perspective, and we can face any challenge, knowing that our strength comes from Him.

Throughout Scripture, God reminds His people of their identity. He told Jeremiah not to call himself “just a child” but to go wherever God sent him and speak with His authority (Jeremiah 1:7). Jesus, too, emphasized the importance of identity when He asked His disciples, “Who do you say I am?” Peter’s response, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God” (Matthew 16:15-16), was revealed by God. This revelation was foundational, demonstrating that true identity comes from divine insight rather than human labels. As believers, our identity is anchored in the truth of who God says we are: overcomers, conquerors, and beloved children. This divine revelation empowers us to rise above any obstacle, secure in the knowledge that God has already declared our victory. So, remember who you are in Christ, and let that truth define your path and purpose.

Prophetic word: The Lord says, "Beloved, I have called you by name, and you are mine. Do not let the voices of fear or doubt define who you are. I am the One who has set you apart, anointed you, and equipped you for every battle. Just as David knew his strength was not in armor but in My power, so too will you stand in the face of giants, unshaken. I have given you authority over every obstacle, every hindrance, and every lie that tries to shake your identity. Remember, you are not just anyone—you are My chosen one, crafted for My purpose and called to overcome. Fear not, for I am with you. Stand firm, My beloved; victory is yours."

Prayer: Heavenly Father, we come before You, recognizing that our identity is in You and You alone. Thank You for calling us Your children and for the authority You’ve given us as heirs of Your kingdom. We declare that no weapon formed against us shall prosper, and no voice of the enemy shall prevail over the truth of who we are in Christ. Lord, open our eyes to see ourselves as You see us—more than conquerors, overcomers, and beloved in Your sight. Strengthen us to stand against any challenge or lie that attempts to redefine us. Like David, may we stand with boldness, knowing our strength comes from You. We pray for divine revelation to guide our paths, for clarity in our purpose, and for courage to walk confidently in the identity You have given us. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.

Wind of Change

“And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.” Genesis 1:2-3KJV

From the very beginning, God showed us the power of the Spirit and the Word in creating change. In Genesis 1:2-3, we see that the earth was empty, dark, and without form—until the Spirit of God moved over the waters and the Word was spoken, bringing forth light. This divine combination of the Spirit’s presence and God’s spoken Word transformed chaos into order and brought life and beauty where there was once emptiness. Jesus echoed this principle in John 3:5, describing the transformative experience of being born of the Spirit and water, signifying that true change in our lives comes when the Spirit and the Word work together. Isaiah prophesied about the power of the Spirit in Isaiah 32:15, revealing that when the Spirit is poured upon us, barren places become fruitful, and what was once empty and lifeless flourishes abundantly.

The power of change through the Word is beautifully illustrated in Ezekiel 37, where Ezekiel prophesied to dry bones, and by the power of the Spirit, they rose into a mighty army. Similarly, when Peter declared healing to the lame man at the gate called Beautiful in Acts 3, the Spirit of God moved, and the man leaped to his feet. These examples reveal that the Spirit and the Word are unstoppable forces for change. When we invite the Spirit to rest upon us and declare God’s Word over our lives and situations, transformation must follow. This is your season for change, your time for divine manifestation. Open your heart, let the Spirit flow, and speak the Word in faith—watch as God’s wind of change brings life and breakthrough in every area of your life, in Jesus’ name.

Prophetic word: The Spirit of the Lord is stirring over your life, preparing to bring forth a profound transformation. This is your season of divine alignment and breakthrough, for the Lord is breathing His Spirit and His Word into the very areas that have been barren, dry, or lifeless. Just as the Spirit moved over the waters at the beginning of creation, He is now moving over every empty place in your life, filling it with light, order, and purpose. The Lord says, “Fear not, for I am with you. The wilderness shall be turned into a fruitful field, and that which has seemed impossible shall flourish in My name. I am raising you up as a testimony of My power to change lives and situations. Speak My Word boldly, for My Spirit is upon you to bring forth life, healing, and restoration.”

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your mighty power to bring change through the Spirit and the Word. I come before You, seeking Your Spirit to rest upon every part of my life that needs transformation. Let Your breath fill me, Lord, and let Your Word speak life into every dry place. Just as You spoke light into darkness, speak clarity, direction, and renewal into my circumstances. I ask for supernatural breakthroughs and manifestations in Jesus’ name. Lord, stir up the wind of change over me and my loved ones, and let the fruitfulness of Your Spirit abound. I declare that this is my season of divine change, and I receive it with faith and expectation. In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.

God loves you!

“He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?” Romans 8:327KJV

God’s love for you is boundless and unchanging, demonstrated supremely in the gift of His Son, Jesus Christ. Romans 8:32 reminds us that if God did not withhold even His beloved Son, He will certainly meet every need in your life. John 3:16 further declares, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” This love is not merely words but a commitment that God will always be with you, supplying strength, wisdom, and every provision you need.

God desires to give you His kingdom and all that sustains life and godliness (Luke 12:32, 2 Peter 1:3). He has prepared blessings beyond measure. As you seek His kingdom first, all other things will be added to you (Matthew 6:33). The kingdom of God comes with power and wisdom, which He reveals through Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 1:24), who He has given us as an expression of His love. May the Lord grant you a deeper revelation of Jesus so that you may walk in the fullness of His wisdom and power, manifesting His love to those around you. Embrace His love, for in it you find everything you need—peace, joy, and the strength to overcome all challenges in Jesus' name.

Prophetic word: The Lord says to you today, "I have loved you with an everlasting love, and I am drawing you closer to Me with unfailing kindness (Jeremiah 31:3). Fear not, for My love surrounds you, and I have already given you the greatest gift of all—My Son. There is no need that I cannot meet, no problem I cannot solve. As you walk in My wisdom and seek first My kingdom, I will open doors that no man can shut and pour out blessings that overflow. I will equip you with My power and My presence, and My Spirit will guide you into all truth (John 16:13). Trust in My love, for I am with you always, and I am working all things together for your good. You are My beloved, chosen, and precious in My sight. Go forth with confidence, for My love will be your shield and your strength."

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your overwhelming love, which You have shown by giving me Your Son. I pray for a fresh revelation of Your love and power in my life. Let me feel the depth and the height of Your love that surpasses all understanding (Ephesians 3:18-19). Lord, as I seek Your kingdom, I ask that every need in my life be met according to Your riches in glory. Let wisdom and power flow through me as I embrace the kingdom life You’ve called me to. Holy Spirit, guide me daily and make me a testimony of God’s love among all people. Help me to walk in divine favor, protected and strengthened by Your love. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Engaging the Holy Spirit

“Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.” John 16:7KJV

Engaging with the Holy Spirit is essential for a fulfilling Christian life, as Jesus himself emphasized in John 16:7. Jesus promised that when He departed, He would send the Holy Spirit to guide, comfort, and empower us. The Holy Spirit is not a distant, impersonal force; He is the third person of the Trinity who comes to dwell within us, bringing the very presence of God into our lives. As we see in Acts 2:4, when the disciples were filled with the Holy Spirit, they spoke with boldness and transformed the world around them. This same Spirit who empowered the early church is available to us today, offering guidance (John 16:13), strength (Ephesians 3:16), and wisdom in every situation. Just as He descended upon Mary, bringing divine power for the miraculous birth of Jesus (Luke 1:35), He is able to transform our lives and enable us to accomplish what we could never achieve on our own.

The Holy Spirit not only empowers but also equips us with gifts and character traits that reflect God's nature (1 Corinthians 12:7-11, Galatians 5:22-23). In Romans 8:26–27, we are reminded that He intercedes for us, helping us pray when words fail. Like a divine tutor, He brings God's Word to our minds, reminding us of truth and teaching us as we need it (John 14:26). When we lean on the Holy Spirit, He produces His fruit within us, shaping our character to reflect Jesus. As we yield to Him, we become more sensitive to His leading and open to His empowerment, living as Christ’s representatives in this world with love, power, and sound judgment. So, let us invite the Holy Spirit into every area of our lives, allowing Him to shape our actions, words, and thoughts for God’s glory.

Prophetic word: The Holy Spirit is drawing you closer to His presence in this season, unveiling new depths of God’s love, wisdom, and power in your life. He is leading you into a time of divine empowerment and revelation, where your understanding of His Word will deepen, and you will discern His voice with clarity. As you yield to His guidance, you will begin to walk in a new level of authority and peace, overcoming challenges that once seemed insurmountable. Doors that were previously closed will open, and opportunities aligned with your destiny will be revealed. The Spirit of God is upon you, bringing comfort, strength, and wisdom. Fear not, for He is with you, equipping you to fulfill every purpose He has placed within you. Embrace this time of transformation, for His power will flow through you to impact those around you, bringing hope, healing, and restoration.

Prayer: Holy Spirit, we invite You into every corner of our hearts and lives today. We acknowledge that without You, we can do nothing, and so we surrender ourselves to Your leading. Fill us anew with Your power, wisdom, and love. We pray for a fresh outpouring of Your Spirit so that we may be equipped to walk boldly in the path You have set before us. Remind us of Your Word, teach us to discern Your voice, and guide us into all truth. Help us to bear Your fruit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—so that our lives may reflect Christ in all we do. Strengthen us, Holy Spirit, to stand firm in faith and carry out our God-given assignments with courage and grace. We thank You, Comforter, Teacher, and Guide, for Your unfailing presence. In Jesus' name, Amen.

You are breaking through!

“And the three mighty men BRAKE THROUGH the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: nevertheless he would not drink thereof, but poured it out unto the Lord.” 2 Samuel 23:16 KJV

Beloved, as October draws to a close, I decree you are breaking through every hindrance and claiming your inheritance in Jesus' name. Breakthrough moments were pivotal in the Scriptures—they marked victories over formidable barriers. Just as the mighty men in 2 Samuel 23:16 broke through enemy lines to fetch water for David, so shall you overcome every resistance that seeks to hinder your blessings. And just as they brought that water back as an offering to the Lord, let your breakthroughs testify to God’s power and your dedication to Him.

Remember the persistent friends in Mark 2:4 who, unable to reach Jesus due to the crowd, uncovered the roof and lowered their friend. Their breakthrough came through faith, determination, and action. When you face insurmountable barriers, like the Red Sea or the walls of Jericho, know that divine instructions, faith-filled prayers, and unwavering obedience will secure your breakthrough. The Lord promises strength and courage to persevere, and as you press on, God’s favor will turn your persistence into an abundant harvest. May you be empowered to keep pushing forward and be assured that every obstacle gives way to victory in Jesus' mighty name. I see greater testimonies unfolding as this year rounds off, in Jesus' name. Amen.

Prophetic word: I declare over you today that every barrier between you and your purpose is removed. Just as the mighty men broke through the host of the Philistines, so shall you break through every resistance that has stood in your path. This season, the walls of limitation are coming down, and doors that were once closed to you are opening in Jesus’ name. God is sending divine help and alignment to bring forth every promise He has spoken over your life. Just as the paralytic's friends uncovered the roof to reach Jesus, your faith makes way for miraculous access. You are rising above obstacles, and the Lord is crowning your year with testimonies of breakthrough, favor, and overflow.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your Word that speaks life, strength, and breakthrough into every circumstance. I declare that every obstacle is broken down by Your mighty power in Jesus’ name. Lord, grant me the wisdom, strength, and faith to persevere until I see Your promises fulfilled in my life. I pray for divine intervention, that as I seek You and follow Your lead, every wall of Jericho in my life will fall. May my life testify to Your faithfulness, and may every breakthrough be a testament to Your glory. Lord, fill my heart with hope, resilience, and joy as I receive the fulfillment of every promise. Thank You, Lord, for making a way where there seems to be none. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Don’t keep quiet!

“When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.” Psalm 32:3KJV

When you find yourself facing opposition or trials, remember that silence allows the adversary to strengthen his hold. Scripture shows us that speaking forth God’s promises activates His power in our lives. David boldly declared victory over Goliath, proclaiming, “I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts” (1 Samuel 17:45). Like David, who spoke with faith before the battle even began, we too must declare victory over sickness, financial struggles, and spiritual attacks. Keeping silent may cause inner turmoil, as Psalm 32:3 says, “When I kept silence, my bones waxed old.” Let your words be instruments of warfare, bringing down strongholds and canceling the enemy's plans.

Isaiah reminds us, “No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper” (Isaiah 54:17). This promise is unlocked through our declarations of faith. Jesus said in Mark 11:23 that if we speak to our mountain and do not doubt, it will be cast into the sea. Beloved, don’t hold back—speak your healing, speak your freedom, and speak your victory. The same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead is within you, empowering every word you declare in faith. Just as Ezekiel spoke life into dry bones (Ezekiel 37), continue to speak until your circumstances align with God’s promises. Keep declaring boldly until every "Goliath" falls in Jesus' name.

Prophetic word: Beloved, the Lord says, “Lift up your voice and do not be silent, for I am with you in every battle. I am the God who goes before you, breaking down barriers and destroying chains. Your words, spoken in faith, are weapons in My hand, for I have given you authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19). Do not be afraid of the opposition, for I have called you victorious. Speak forth My promises, and watch as I perform miracles and bring transformation in every area of your life. Even now, I am shifting things on your behalf, aligning you with My plans. Keep declaring, keep believing, for every word you release in faith is a seed that will bear fruit in its season. Stand strong, and do not relent. Your deliverance is now.”

Prayer: Lord Almighty, thank You for the authority You have given me in Jesus' name. I stand on Your promises today and declare that no weapon formed against me shall prosper. I speak against every force of darkness, every spirit of affliction, and every obstacle in my path. In the name of Jesus, I call forth healing, breakthrough, and provision. I declare that every mountain of difficulty in my life is removed, and every valley is raised. Thank You, Father, that as I speak Your word, it does not return void but accomplishes everything You have sent it to do. Strengthen me, Lord, to keep speaking in faith until I see Your promises fulfilled in my life. I declare victory, peace, and joy, for I know that You are fighting on my behalf. In Jesus' mighty name, Amen.

Build your strength in God!

“If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.” Genesis 50:20 KJV

The answer to any adversity is divine enablement and empowerment. If we are in this world, adversity will come (Job 14:1). However, there is a place of rest amid a world of adversities (Hebrews 4:2, Matthew 7:24-25). When you have power (strength) with God, you prevail in any circumstance (Philippians 4:13, Genesis 32:28). I have known from the scriptures that all battles are decided in my favor if I have God’s backing, no matter the strength and the weapons of the opposition (1 Samuel 17). The most important things in my life are the favor (with God and man), wisdom, and the power of God (Luke 2:52). All this is available through fellowship, hearing God’s voice, receiving His Spirit, and walking in obedience. Once you know what you need to do and do it, God will surely do what He needs to do (Hebrews 13:5); consequently, all adversities lose power.

This week will be stress-free for you in Jesus’ name (Exodus 33:14).

Prophetic word: The Lord says, “I am fortifying you with My strength. Though the storms may rise and challenges press on every side, know that I am with you, and My strength is made perfect in your weakness. I am turning what the enemy meant for harm into good, and I am positioning you for breakthrough and victory. Stand firm, for the battle belongs to Me, and I am your defender. Like Joseph, you may have faced betrayal, and like David, you may have encountered giants, but I am empowering you to overcome. Lean on Me, abide in My presence, and walk in obedience. For I am lifting you above your adversaries and making you a testimony of My faithfulness. You will look back on these days and see My hand guiding and strengthening you every step of the way.”

Prayer: Father, I thank You for Your unfailing strength and for being my strong tower and refuge. I pray that You fill me with Your divine power and strengthen me to stand firm in every challenge. Like David, help me to see every battle as Yours, not mine, and to trust in Your ability to deliver me. Lord, I pray that You would transform every adversity into a testimony of Your grace and power. Give me the courage to walk in obedience, the wisdom to discern Your guidance, and the faith to trust in You. May I grow in favor with You and man, and may Your Spirit empower me to fulfill every purpose You have set before me. In Jesus’ name, I declare victory over every trial, and I stand assured that You are working all things together for my good. Amen.

God will turn it around!

“But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.” Genesis 50:20 KJV

God has a plan for you, and His plans are good (Jeremiah 29:11).  The enemy also has a plan, but his plans are evil (Psalms 21:11). However, God will turn the enemy's plans around for your good. If you believe, say amen. The plan of God shall prevail in your life whether the enemy likes it or not. Romans 8:28 says, “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” Perhaps what you are currently experiencing is not too good and contrary to what you expect. You may be thinking that the enemy's plan is winning. Change your thinking. God's plans will swallow the enemy's plans in your life. The enemy thought he was winning against Jesus until the game changed, and he discovered that he had lost the keys of hell and death (1 Cor. 2:8, Rev 1:18). In Genesis 50:20, Joseph told his brothers, "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives." Joseph’s story reflects that no matter how bleak a situation may appear, God’s plan still unfolds for a greater purpose.

Four things you must remember. First, you belong to the family of God (Ephesians 2:11-13), and as such, you are no longer under the enemy's dominion. Second, you must believe that God has a good plan for you and expect His plan to be fulfilled in your life. The third thing is that you call upon Him; He said he would listen when you pray (Jeremiah 29:12). The last thing is to declare, “I believe I receive” until you see the manifestation of your expectations (Mark 11:24).

Prophetic word: The Lord says, "I am the God of perfect plans, and I have designed a future for you that no enemy can thwart. Trust that even the present challenges are only stepping stones towards your divine destiny. I am refining, molding, and shaping you for greater things. The doors that seemed closed will soon open, and what was lost will be restored in greater measure. Do not be afraid; I am with you, guiding you into a future filled with hope and victory. I will fulfill every promise, and you will see My faithfulness in the land of the living. Your story is not finished; it is about to turn for good, and you will testify of My glory."

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your unwavering love and for the plans You have for my life. I surrender my fears, worries, and all that seems uncertain to You, knowing that You hold every moment in Your hands. Lord, strengthen my faith to see beyond my present circumstances and to believe in the future You have promised. I declare that Your plans for me are good and that You are leading me toward a blessed and prosperous end. Silence every voice of doubt, and let my heart be anchored in Your promises. Lord, guide my steps, open the doors that need to be opened, and close the ones that do not align with Your purpose. I trust that I will see the fullness of Your promises come to pass. In Jesus' mighty name, I pray. Amen.

It can be uprooted!

“But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.” Matthew 15:13 KJV

If it is not planted by God, it can be uprooted. If it can be seen, it is subject to change (2 Cor 4:18). If it was done by the enemy, it could be destroyed (1 John 3:8). Even if you don’t want it, it can be changed (2 Kings 20:1-5). Through prayer, faith, wise choices, and a generous heart, we align with God’s will, allowing Him to bring about the change we seek. When we root ourselves in Him, there is no situation—planted by the enemy or arising from circumstances—that He cannot change or uproot for His glory and our good. I am happy to announce that the enemy has no final say in your life.

Beloved, insist on the desired change; don’t give up (Luke 18:1-7). Be violent in your spirit; physical violence is not permitted, but spiritual violence is (Matthew 11:12). Don’t stop until you receive your testimony. Prayers do not fail; only the people who give up fail. God does not fail; only the unfaithful fail. Sacrificial giving can turn things around for you. Your harvest is coming (Gal 6:9), and your reward is nearer and closer to you than you think (Romans 10:8-9).

Prophetic word: The Lord is saying to you, "Fear not, for I am your strength and sustainer. Every seed of affliction, doubt, or fear not planted by My hand shall be uprooted from your life. You are not bound by the works of the enemy or by circumstances that seem immovable. I am the God who breaks chains and moves mountains, turning around every plot and scheme for your good. Even that which seems deeply rooted will be overturned by My power. Walk in faith, for what is seen is temporary, and what I am doing in you is eternal. Be still and know that I am the God who uproots, restores, and plants anew."

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I come before You in faith, acknowledging that You are the ultimate gardener of my life. I surrender every situation, every worry, and every fear to You. In the name of Jesus, I ask that You uproot every ungodly seed and break every stronghold of the enemy. Replace what the enemy meant for harm with Your peace, joy, and purpose. I declare Your will be done in my life and over every aspect that concerns me. I thank You, Lord, that You are with me, guiding me, and working all things together for my good. In Jesus' mighty name, Amen.

Deeper with God

“He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.” Psalm 103:7 KJV

The depth of your relationship with God determines what He reveals to you. What He reveals to you determines how much of His grace and power you can carry. He said concerning Abraham, “Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do” (Genesis 18:17). A shallow relationship desires to receive what God has, while a deeper relationship longs to know and receive God Himself. Moses desired to know God's ways and to have an intimate understanding of His nature, and this separated him from the crowd. Many people today are content with witnessing God's acts—His blessings, miracles, and provision—but only a few seek a deeper relationship that craves to understand His ways. As Jesus taught in Matthew 6:33, “Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” When we seek God for who He is, His acts will naturally follow.

Having access to God's secrets and knowing His ways bring about lasting dominion, prosperity, and peace. Job said, “As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle” (Job 29:4). Job's life was marked by divine wisdom and blessing because of this intimacy with God. Similarly, Daniel could interpret dreams and mysteries because of his deep connection with God, a connection that granted him access to divine secrets (Daniel 2:19, 5:12, 6:22). I encourage you to seek God’s ways and desire a deeper experience with Him. When you know His secrets and walk in them, you won’t have to worry about the benefits of the kingdom—they will follow you. Remember, “You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart” (Jeremiah 29:13). Seek Him and experience the fullness of His presence.

Prophetic word: The Lord is calling you to go deeper in your relationship with Him. In this season, He is inviting you to move beyond seeking His hand and to seek His heart. Just as He revealed His ways to Moses and His acts to the children of Israel, He desires to show you more than just His miracles—He wants to reveal His very nature to you. As you pursue Him with all your heart, you will begin to unlock the mysteries of heaven, and He will pour out divine wisdom, guidance, and favor upon you. The secrets of God, the deep treasures of His wisdom, are reserved for those who earnestly seek Him. You are stepping into a new level of intimacy with God, and in this place, you will experience His provision, His peace, and His supernatural power like never before. The Lord says, "I am drawing you into a deeper relationship with Me; do not fear. As you press into Me, I will reveal Myself to you in greater ways, and My glory will fill your life.

 

Prayer: Father, in the name of Jesus, I thank You for this word that calls us into deeper intimacy with You. I pray that You would stir up a holy hunger within us to know Your ways and not just Your acts. Help us to seek You above all else, to desire Your presence, and to understand the deep things of Your heart. Lord, just as You revealed Your secrets to Moses, Job, and Daniel, we ask that You would open our spiritual eyes and ears to hear from You and walk in divine revelation. Let us experience Your presence in a fresh and profound way. May we walk in Your wisdom, dominion, and supernatural grace as we surrender to You completely. Father, lead us into this new season with boldness, knowing that as we seek You first, everything else will fall into place. We thank You, Lord, for the breakthroughs, blessings, and divine encounters that await us as we step into deeper relationships with You. In Jesus' mighty name, Amen.
