It must take faith!

 “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 11:6 KJV

If what you are facing, or the vision God has placed in your heart, can only be accomplished by faith, rejoice. It is evidence that your life is aligned with what pleases God (Hebrews 11:6). Those who walk with God are often led into assignments beyond human strength, where obedience to His instruction and trust in His promises become essential (1 Samuel 30:6–8; 2 Kings 5:1–14). In God’s kingdom, faith is not optional; it is our way of life. “The just shall live by faith” (Romans 1:17), we are “justified by faith” (Romans 5:1), and saved “by grace through faith” (Ephesians 2:8–9). What requires faith invites God’s power, for He delights in revealing His strength through human weakness (Zechariah 4:6; 2 Corinthians 12:9).

Therefore, do not pursue goals that require no dependence on God, and do not run from challenges because they seem larger than your ability. Faith is the victory that overcomes the world (1 John 5:4), as seen when David faced Goliath (1 Samuel 17) and when Gideon embraced God’s call despite his limitations (Judges 6:12–16). Remain steadfast in every season; offer God quality praise and worship, declare His promises, ask for His wisdom, and rely on His strength. As you persist in faith, expect the supernatural, for faith creates the atmosphere where God turns impossibilities into testimonies and challenges into platforms for His glory.

Prophetic Word: I declare that your faith will not fail. As you choose to trust God beyond what you can see or understand, He will reward you openly. Every challenge before you shall become a testimony of God’s power. Grace is released to strengthen you, and divine help will locate you. You will move from faith to faith and from victory to victory; and the hand of God will be evident in all you do, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Prayer: Father, I choose to trust You completely. I reject fear, doubt, and self-reliance. I receive grace to walk by faith, obey Your instructions, and stand firmly on Your promises. Strengthen me by Your Spirit, help me to praise You in every season, and lead me into victory according to Your will. I declare that my life will please You, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Put God first!

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33 KJV

The supernatural life is real, but it is reserved for those who deliberately put God first. Supernatural provision, divine help, protection, lifting, and intervention are released to those who make God their highest priority. When you place Him above every other pursuit, you position yourself for uncommon breakthroughs. You must treasure His word more than food, comfort, or ambition (Job 23:12; Joshua 1:8). Like Mary, who chose the better part, learn to sit at His feet and receive instruction rather than be distracted by many things (Luke 10:41- 42).

Putting God first means giving priority to fellowship with Him, through worship, prayer, obedience, and study of the Scriptures. As you honor Him with your time, resources, and devotion, He takes responsibility for your life (Proverbs 3:9; Psalms 1:1–3). When God occupies first place, fear and worry lose their power over you, and peace becomes your daily experience (Philippians 4:6). Those who truly seek Him never lack direction, strength, or victory. If you desire a life of consistent triumph, learn to order your life around God. Make Him first in your decisions, plans, relationships, and pursuits. When He becomes your priority, every other thing will fall into divine order.

Prophetic Word: I declare that as you commit to putting God first, every need in your life shall be supernaturally supplied. The Lord will lift you above struggles and cause His favor to distinguish you. Doors of opportunity, provision, and advancement will open to you as you honor Him. From today, you will live a life of divine order, peace, and overflowing blessings in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Prayer: Father, I repent for every way I have placed other things before You. I choose today to seek You first in all I do. Help me to love Your word, prioritize Your presence, and walk in obedience. Order my steps and add all that I need according to Your promise. I receive grace to put You first always, in Jesus’ name. Amen. 

Gates are Personalities!

“Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.” Psalms 24:7 KJV

In the realm of the spirit, gates are not just physical barriers; they are personalities that respond to authority and to the spoken word. When you understand this truth, you will refuse to remain stranded before any gate meant to open for you. Many of the great blessings of life are protected by gates, but no gate can resist a believer who knows his identity and walks in divine authority (Matthew 16:18). As you speak in faith, gates begin to shift and yield. I declare that the gates of marriage, opportunity, and favor are opening for you this season. As Peter experienced in Acts 12:10, doors that seemed impossible will open on their own accord. The gates of wealth and new beginnings are also opening before you (Isaiah 45:1–3).

If you are standing before a gate today, do not be afraid or discouraged. Recognize that you carry God-given authority and speak boldly to the gate (2 Corinthians 4:13; Job 22:28). No gate, be it financial, spiritual, marital, or career-related, can withstand the power of faith-filled declarations. When you operate in revelational knowledge and the power of the Holy Spirit, even the gates of hell will not prevail against you.

Prophetic Word: I decree that every stubborn gate before you begins to lift now. Gates of delay, limitation, and frustration are opening by the authority in the name of Jesus Christ. The Lord is granting you access to new levels of blessing and breakthrough. From today, no closed door will be able to resist you in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Prayer: Father, I thank You for the authority You have given me in Christ Jesus. I speak to every gate before me, be lifted and open now. Grant me boldness to declare Your word without fear, and let every barrier give way to Your glory. I receive divine access and supernatural breakthroughs in Jesus’ name. Amen. 

Words of Power

 “Now go! I will be with you as you speak, and I will instruct you in what to say.” Exodus 4:12 NLT

Victory in life and destiny requires speaking the right words at the right time. In the kingdom of God, our words are not ordinary; they are carriers of divine power (1 Corinthians 2:4–6). We speak with confidence because God’s presence goes with us, and He places His wisdom upon our lips (1 Samuel 17:45-47). When we speak in alignment with His will, no opposition can successfully resist our words (Luke 21:15). God empowers His children with utterance and authority to confront every challenge. Whatever assignment or situation stands before you, remember that you are not alone. Ask for His presence and His word, and He will give you what to say and the grace to prevail. With God’s instruction in your mouth, every battle becomes winnable.

Invest time in seeking God until you become conscious of His presence and you are in tune with His instruction. Trust Him to fill your mouth with words of life, courage, and victory (Psalm 81:10).

Prophetic Word: I decree that your words are seasoned with divine wisdom and power. The Lord will put the right words in your mouth at every critical moment. Your voice will carry authority, and no adversary will be able to stand against what you declare. As you speak by faith, doors will open, and victories will manifest in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Father, fill my mouth with Your words and guide my speech by Your Spirit. Let my words carry power, wisdom, and life. Grant me boldness to speak rightly in every situation, and let my declarations bring victory and glory to Your name, in Jesus’ name. Amen. 

The Power of the Spirit

“And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about.” Luke 4:14 KJV

If Jesus Himself returned in the power of the Spirit, can anyone truly live as an effective Christian without that same power? (Acts 1:8). The power of the Spirit is not reserved only for pulpit ministry; it is the divine enablement every believer needs to fulfill God’s purpose and destiny (Luke 24:49). This empowerment lifts a person beyond natural limitations and ordinary abilities (Numbers 11:16–17; Genesis 2:7; Exodus 31:3; Daniel 5:11). Through the Spirit, weaknesses are turned into strength, impossibilities become possible, and ordinary lives are transformed into testimonies of God’s greatness.

Desire the infilling of the Holy Spirit daily and remain yielded to His leading (Ephesians 5:18; Romans 8:14). Walk in obedience to His promptings and depend on His strength in all things (Galatians 5:16; Isaiah 40:29–31). As you do, the power of the Spirit will rest upon you and make your life a living testimony of God’s glory.

Prophetic Word: I decree that the power of the Holy Spirit rests mightily upon you. You are strengthened beyond your natural ability, and you walk in boldness, wisdom, and divine effectiveness. Every limitation in your life is broken by the power of the Spirit. You are empowered to fulfill your destiny and to prevail in all things, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: My Father and my God, I acknowledge my need for the power of the Holy Spirit. Fill me afresh and empower me to live beyond my natural ability. Let Your Spirit guide me, strengthen me, and enable me to fulfill my destiny with boldness and impact, in Jesus’ name. Amen. 

The Power of His Presence!

 “And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.” Exodus 33:14 KJV

There is a power that makes every opposition irrelevant, no matter how fierce or intimidating they appear (1 Samuel 17:45–47; 2 Chronicles 20; 2 Kings 19). This same power causes you to dominate in every situation and circumstance (Acts 7:9–10; Exodus 14:13–21). It positions you in a place of rest, even in the midst of battles and storms (Exodus 33:14). That power is the presence of God. When His presence is with you, your efforts become fruitful, your steps are ordered, and your life produces an undeniable impact (Acts 10:38). The presence of God distinguishes you, strengthens you, and makes you victorious where others struggle.

Prioritize daily fellowship with God and seek Him sincerely (Matthew 6:9–11; Isaiah 40:31; Acts 4:13). Pursue Him with all your heart and without delay (Jeremiah 29:13; Isaiah 55:6). Walk in obedience to His instructions and live by faith (Isaiah 1:19; Hebrews 11:6). As you do these, His presence becomes your constant companion and your guaranteed advantage.

Prophetic Word: I decree that the presence of God goes before you and surrounds you on every side. Every challenge before you bows to the power of His presence. You walk in rest, victory, and divine favor. His presence distinguishes you and causes you to prevail in all things, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: My Father and my God, I desire Your presence above all else. Draw me closer to You and help me to seek You wholeheartedly. Let Your presence guide my steps, give me rest, and empower me to live a life of impact and victory, in Jesus’ name. Amen. 

Knowledge births power!

“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 11:32 KJV

Power is the product of sound knowledge; you are also bold when you know. You cannot walk in power beyond the level of your knowledge of God. Those who genuinely know their God are strengthened and positioned for exploits. Revelational knowledge of God’s Word empowers you to function with divine authority on the earth (John 10:35). God is a covenant-keeping God (Deuteronomy 7:9). When you understand His covenant and walk in alignment with it, you step into a realm where no power can successfully overpower you. Knowledge of God brings peace, alignment, and elevation, positioning you for divine intervention and supernatural increase (Job 22:21–29). A life that is rooted in covenant knowledge becomes untouchable for the forces of darkness.

Invest daily in fellowshipping with God and His word. Ask for power from on high day and night unti you believe you have it (Luke 18:1,7, Mark 11:24).

Prophetic Word: I decree that your knowledge of God increases mightily. Fresh revelation is released upon you, and strength rises within your spirit. By divine understanding, you will do exploits that glorify God and silence opposition. You walk in wisdom, authority, and power, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Father, make me hungry and thirsty to know you more. Help me to walk faithfully in Your covenant, and let my life reflect exploits that bring You glory. I receive wisdom, strength, and divine authority in Jesus’ name. Amen. 

Power, a game changer!

“And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power.” Mark 9:1KJV

Your destiny is not fulfilled by wishes or intentions; it is enforced by power. The manifestation of God’s purpose in your life is like establishing one kingdom over another, and such a takeover requires power. Stagnation cannot hold you when power is at work. Death itself cannot terminate your assignment when divine power is released. When you grow in power, you must see a visible upward shift in your life.

Esau was told clearly that only by power would his status change (Genesis 27:40). Jesus, fully aware of the demands of destiny, commanded His disciples to wait until they were endued with power (Acts 1:8; Luke 24:49). It does not matter what your past experiences have been; what matters is what power is about to produce in your life. Power is the ultimate game changer. Those who wait upon the Lord are renewed, strengthened, and elevated into new realms of effectiveness (Isaiah 40:31). When you carry divine power, your life becomes a testimony of God’s reality, just as the early church astonished their world through spiritual authority and boldness (Acts 4:13). You must stay with God until power becomes your lifestyle, because it is power that births the fulfilment of destiny and the purpose of God in your life.

Prophetic Word: I decree that fresh power is released upon your life. Every limitation assigned to your destiny is broken. You rise into new dimensions of strength, boldness, clarity, and effectiveness. Your calling is activated, your purpose accelerates, and your life becomes a living proof of God’s power, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Father, clothe me with power from on high. I receive divine strength for my assignment. Let every weakness be swallowed up by your power. I step into new levels of grace, authority, and effectiveness. My destiny shall not fail, my purpose shall not be delayed, and my life shall glorify You, in Jesus’ name. Amen.  

Exercise your authority!

“The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.” Matthew 8:8-9 KJV

You must rise in dominion and activate the authority God has already placed in your spirit. You were not created to negotiate with darkness but to command it. Where there is divine authority, there must be divine enforcement. The centurion understood that spiritual results respond to spoken authority, not physical presence, not struggle, but the Word spoken in faith.

You carry power over serpents, scorpions, and all the works of darkness (Luke 10:19). You are authorized to decree, to declare, and to command results (Job 22:28; Matthew 16:19). Whatever challenges your finances, your health, your peace, your household, or your future must bow when you take your place in authority. The enemy only advances where authority is not enforced. This is the hour to stand in charge of your territory without fear, for God has not given you the spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). Even hell and death respond when a believer exercises dominion in Christ.

Prophetic Word: I decree that every power resisting your progress submits to your authority in Christ. Every chain over your life, your family, your finances, and your destiny is broken. The voice of the enemy is silenced, and the will of God prevails in every area of your life. From today, you walk in command, dominion, and unstoppable victory, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: I break the power of the devil over that which belongs to me. Satan, lose your hold over my portion. I break the power of hell and death over my body, soul, and spirit. Let the power of God be at work in every area of my life, in my family, business, career, and ministry in Jesus’ name.  

Deal with the root!

“And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.” Matthew 3:10 KJV

This is your year of the power of God, and the Lord is calling you to deal decisively with the root of every unwanted fruit in your life. Wherever there is a fruit, there is a tree; and wherever there is a tree, there is a root. As long as the root remains, the fruit will continue. But when the root is confronted and destroyed, the tree cannot survive (Job 14:7–9).

Today, by divine authority, you are empowered to confront the foundations of infirmity, limitation, stagnation, poverty, near-success syndrome, and every hidden resistance to your destiny. Lay the axe to the root through the spoken Word and the fire of the Holy Ghost. What you confront spiritually today shall lose its hold permanently. Even the tragedy of Abiathar reminds us that unresolved roots can override loyalty, destiny, and years of service (1 Kings 2:27; 1 Samuel 22:18–20; 1 Samuel 2:31–33). This season, you shall not be a victim of inherited battles or hidden foundations.

Prophetic Word: I decree that every voice speaking against your life from the root is silenced by the power of God. Every evil foundation is uprooted. You shall not see evil this year and beyond. Your destiny is secured, your progress is unstoppable, and your future is preserved, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: My Father and my God, I receive divine authority to confront every negative root in my life. By the power of Your Word and the fire of the Holy Ghost, I lay the axe to every tree that has produced evil fruit in my destiny. Let every evil foundation be destroyed, and let my life bring forth only good fruit according to Your will. I step into liberty, victory, and lasting transformation in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.

This is your day!

“This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24 KJV

This day is a deliberate creation of God. Today carries divine intention, heavenly assignment, and prophetic fulfillment. It is your day of joy, your day of victory, your day of manifestation, and your day of divine intervention. When God makes a day, He programs it with purpose, favour, and progress. No power of darkness has authority over what God has ordained (Isaiah 14:27; Proverbs 19:21).

Every promise attached to your destiny finds expression in today. The Lord shall order your steps into prepared blessings, and your lines shall fall unto you in pleasant places (Psalm 16:6; Proverbs 3:6). This day is loaded with good news, breakthroughs, and divine alignment. Refuse silence; speak your expectations and announce your victory (2 Kings 7:9; Numbers 14:28; Job 38:12). As you speak, the atmosphere shifts, and destiny responds.

Prophetic Word: I decree that today shall answer to you with gladness, favour, and good news. Every negative expectation is overturned, and every divine promise finds fulfillment. Your steps are ordered, your path is cleared, and your testimony is established. This day shall work for you and not against you, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: My Father and my God, I receive this day as Your gift of favour and victory. I align my spirit with Your purpose for today. Let every moment carry divine impact, and let every step release fulfilment. I rejoice in advance for the good You have ordained for me, and I walk boldly into my breakthrough, in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.

Necessity of Power

“Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.” Psalms 66:3 KJV

The only language the enemy understands is power (1 Samuel 11; 1 Samuel 17; 2 Kings 19). Where power is absent, harassment becomes constant; oppression becomes normal; bondage becomes routine; and destiny is endangered (Genesis 27:40; Judges 16:20–21). Most of the battles people face, whether spiritual, emotional, physical, or circumstantial, are rooted in one fundamental problem: powerlessness (1 Samuel 17:51; 2 Kings 7:6). The enemy exploits weakness, but he submits to power. When a man rises in divine power, his enemies lose authority over him.

Yet, no believer is meant to live powerless. You are endued with power through the Holy Spirit and through the revelation of Jesus Christ (Acts 1:8; 1 Corinthians 1:24). Heaven has already deposited the resources of dominion inside you. Therefore, I exhort you: walk in power, speak in power, act in power, and enforce your victory. Let your life become a demonstration of divine authority, causing your enemies to bow and your destiny to advance (Luke 10:19).

Prophetic Word: I decree that every form of spiritual weakness is broken from your life. You shall arise in divine power and operate in supernatural authority. The Lord will clothe you with might, and your enemies shall submit themselves unto you. Your days of harassment are over. You shall walk in victory, dominion, and distinction, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: My Father and my God, I receive Your power afresh today. I reject every form of weakness, fear, and spiritual slumber. Endue me with divine authority by Your Spirit. Let my life be a manifestation of Your power for the praise of Your name, now and always, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Power of God in you! 5

“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Romans 12:2 KJV

There is a mindset that sustains the manifestation of the power of God in you and through you. If you desire to dominate in this life, your mind cannot be patterned after the systems of this world. You must embrace a mind that is aligned with the Word of God. You are called to live from divine consciousness, fully persuaded of who you are in Christ and of the immeasurable resources that have been deposited in you through Him (Colossians 2:10; Ephesians 1:18–19).

Through Christ, you are not powerless. You have been vested with authority in His Name and empowered by the Holy Spirit to rule and reign in this life (Luke 10:19; 2 Timothy 1:7). You are God’s dominion; you are His holy dwelling place (Psalm 114:2; 1 Corinthians 6:19). Your words are not empty, they carry divine force to shift circumstances (Mark 11:23). You can walk upon impossibilities (Matthew 14:29). You are fully equipped with the strength of Christ to do all things (Philippians 4:13). Therefore, I challenge you to deliberately renew your mind with the truth of God’s Word. Reject every limitation imposed by the world’s thinking. Align your thoughts with heaven’s realities, and you will begin to live out the good, acceptable, and perfect will of God in unmistakable ways (Romans 12:2; Joshua 1:8). As your mind is transformed, your life will become the platform upon which God’s power is consistently displayed.

Prophetic Word: I decree that your mind is renewed and aligned with divine truth. Every mindset of limitation, fear, and defeat is uprooted from your life. You shall walk in authority, clarity, and dominion. Your thoughts shall produce victory, your words shall carry power, and your life shall demonstrate the excellence of God’s will. You are rising into the fullness of your identity in Christ, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: My Father and my God, I submit my mind to Your Word. I reject every pattern of this world and receive the transformation of Your truth. Renew my thoughts, align my desires with Your will, and establish Your dominion in my life. Let my mind become the channel through which Your power is revealed daily. I declare that I live from divine understanding and victorious consciousness, for the glory of Your name, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Power of God in you! 4

“For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure:” Philippians 2:13 KJV

Your true status is not your age or your academic qualifications, but how much of God can be demonstrated in your life and through you (1 Samuel 17:45-47, Luke 2:52). What impact can you make among men through the power of God that is in you? If your boast is not in God, then you are a weak Christian. Paul said in Philippians 4:13, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” It was written about Jesus in Acts 10:38, “… for God was with Him” It was written about Joseph in Genesis 39:2, “And the Lord was with Joseph….” The presence of the Lord was the source of their extraordinary influence, victory, and distinction.

Therefore, I challenge you: consecrate yourself wholly unto God. Seek Him with all your heart, with an expectation that His power will be revealed in you and through you in this season (Isaiah 55:6–7; Jeremiah 29:13; Romans 12:1–2). As you yield yourself completely to Him, your life will become a living evidence of His presence and ability.

Prophetic Word: I decree that you shall not live an ordinary life. The presence of God shall be tangibly evident in all that you do. The power of God in you shall distinguish you, elevate you, and make you a vessel of impact in your generation. Men shall see the hand of God upon you and glorify Him, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: My Father and my God, I yield myself wholly unto You. I consecrate my life, my plans, and my future into Your hands. Let Your power be fully revealed in me and through me. Cause my life to reflect Your presence and glory. Make me a living testimony of Your might, for the praise of Your name, now and always, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Power of God in you! 3

 “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure:” Philippians 2:13 KJV

We continue to establish from Scripture that the power of God is actively resident within every believer. This divine power flows most freely when our lives are aligned with what brings pleasure to Him. Today, we consider another dimension of His good pleasure, the pleasure of knowing God. It pleases God when you know Him (Psalm 27:1, Daniel 11:32). There exists a realm where your plan becomes His plan, and your purpose becomes His purpose (John 15:7). This realm is accessed through revelational knowledge of His person (John 10:35). When a believer enters this realm, the power of God flows naturally and effortlessly.

The early church walked in this dimension of power: the shadow of Peter healed the sick (Acts 5:15), handkerchiefs from Paul carried divine power (Acts 19:12), and even deadly venom lost its effect on the Apostle (Acts 28:3–6). These were the product of lives saturated with the knowledge of God. Therefore, seek Him. Know Him. Grow in your intimacy with Him. As you do, His power will become your daily experience, operating in and through your life for His glory.

Prophetic Word: I decree that the eyes of your understanding are enlightened. You shall know God deeply and walk in supernatural strength. As you grow in the knowledge of Him, the power of God shall flow through your life effortlessly, producing signs, wonders, and undeniable evidence of His presence, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: My Father and my God, draw me deeper into the knowledge of Your person. Open my eyes to know You as You truly are. Let my heart burn with hunger for intimacy with You. As I grow in the revelation of who You are, let Your power be released in and through my life for Your glory, now and always, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Power of God in you! 2

“For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure:” Philippians 2:13 KJV

I will continue to combine our text with Ephesians 3:20. These scriptures confirm that the power of God is actively at work in every believer. This divine power becomes most evident when our lives are aligned with what pleases Him. This morning, we examine another dimension of “His good pleasure.” The second “good pleasure” of God I want us to consider is His purpose. When you position yourself at the centre of God’s plan and purpose for your life, you experience the power of God working both in you and through you.

The three Hebrew youths declared in Daniel 3:16–18, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace… But if not… we will not serve thy gods.” They knew that God was able, but they also understood that His power is always released in harmony with His divine purpose. The power of God is released when the purpose of God is being fulfilled (Revelation 4:11). Even Jesus ministered strictly within divine assignment. He went only to those whom God had purposed to visit (Luke 4:25–27). Fortunately, God has a good plan and purpose for each of us (Jeremiah 29:11). Please seek to discover His purpose for your life. Walk in it. There, the power of God will find full expression in your life.

Prophetic Word: I decree that you are aligned with the divine purpose of God. As you walk in His plan, the power of God shall be made manifest in your life, bringing direction, preservation, and fulfillment, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: O Lord my God, reveal Your purpose for my life with clarity. Order my steps into Your perfect will. Empower me to walk boldly in my divine assignment, and let Your power be made evident in everything I do, now and always, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Power of God in you! 1

“For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure:” Philippians 2:13 KJV

I will be combining our text with Ephesians 3:20 to deal with the subject of the power of God in you. Ephesians 3:20 says, “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.” Both texts confirmed that the power of God is at work in every believer. The power can generate both willingness and obedience in us if we align ourselves with His good pleasure. Also, our testimony depends on the extent to which we allow His power to work in us, not really on our asking and thinking, as important as they are. So let us examine “His good pleasure.”

The first “good pleasure” I want us to examine is faith. Hebrews 11:6 says, “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.” If you have faith in God (Mark 11:22-24), you are positioning yourself to experience the power of God in you and through you (Matthew 17:19-20, Acts 14:9-10). If you can hear God and act upon His word, the power of God will work in you more than what you are capable of (John 2:5, Luke 5:4-6).

Prophetic Word: I decree that your life is pleasing unto God, and you shall experience the manifestation of His power in every area of your life, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: O Lord my God, draw me closer to You. Create in me a deep hunger for Your presence and power. Plant unshakable faith within me, that I may experience the fullness of Your power in every area of my life this year and beyond, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

If you are willing…

“If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:” Isaiah 1:19 KJV

Our text reveals that harvest is a product of willingness joined with obedience. Willingness alone is not enough; obedience is the force that activates the promise. God has already made provision for abundance in the land (Ecclesiastes 5:9), but only those who obey will access it. Jesus illustrated this truth in the parable of the two sons (Matthew 21:28 31): one was willing but not obedient, the other was obedient and did his father’s will. Scripture records that the one who did the father’s will was approved.

When obedience is present, divine power is released. Chains are broken, provision is made available, and doors are opened (2 Corinthians 10:6; Job 36:11,15; 1 Kings 17:13–14; 1 Samuel 15:23; John 2:5; Luke 5:5). Obedience turns divine promises into physical experiences. The good of the land is an inheritance waiting for your obedience. Please seek to know the will of God for your life, receive His instruction, and pursue it without compromise. This is your access key for this season.

Prophetic Word: I decree that you shall be both willing and obedient, and you shall eat the good of the land this year and beyond, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Father, I thank You because the profit of the earth belongs to all. Grant me the grace to walk in joyful obedience so I may fully access my inheritance this year, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

God makes men willing!

“Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.” Psalm 110:3 KJV

Our text declares that willingness is a product of God’s power. God has the ability to touch the hearts of men to rise in support of His purpose in your life. He stirred the hearts of valiant men to follow Saul (1 Samuel 10:26). He commanded a widow to sustain Elijah during a famine (1 Kings 17:9). He moved faithful women to minister to Jesus from their substance (Luke 8:2–3). The same God can also restrain men from harming you (Psalm 105:14–15; Genesis 31:29), He can even make your enemy be at peace with you (Proverbs 16:7, Genesis 33:1-4). When His power is at work in your life, fire loses its ability to burn you (Daniel 3:25), and lions lose their appetite for your flesh (Daniel 6:22). Where divine power reigns, natural laws bow, and people are favorably disposed towards you (Exodus 3:21).

In this new year and beyond, you can expect God to use men for you by allowing His power to be at work in you and through you (2 Chronicles 26:15).  

Prophetic Word: I decree that you shall be marvellously helped and highly favored this year in Jesus' name.

Prayer: Father, I thank You because this is the day of Your power. Let people favor me and rise to help me this year, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

You must be willing!

“Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.” Psalm 110:3 KJV

I would like to borrow some words from Charles Spurgeon this morning. He wrote concerning our text, “God's people are to be a willing people. We can tell who are the children by the fact that they are willing. I preach to many of you times without number. I tell you of hell; I bid you flee from it; I tell you of Christ; I bid you look to him, but you are unwilling to do so. What do I conclude from that? Either that the day of God's power has not yet come, or that you are not God's people.”

He further wrote, “I think this word applies not only to their being willing to be saved, but willing to work after they are saved. God loves his people's services, because they do them voluntarily. Voluntaryism is the essence of the gospel. Willing people are those whom God delights to have as his servants. He would not have slaves to grace his throne, but free men, who, with gladness and joy, should be willing in the day of his power.

My conclusion is that we are in the day of God’s power. You, as a people of God, must be willing to get saved if you are not already and willing to work for the Lord if you have not yet been doing so.  

Prophetic Word: I declare that the power of God is at work in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure in Jesus' name.

Prayer: Father, I thank You because this is the day of Your power. I trust you with my life, do whatever you like with my life, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

The enemy, an advantage!

“The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies. Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.” Psalm 110:1-3 KJV

The presence of the enemy is not your disadvantage; it is your advantage when you are properly seated. Power is released from a seating position. When you are seated with Christ, your environment no longer defines your outcome; your position with Him does. That is why Scripture declares that you will rule in the midst of your enemies. Not after they are gone. In the midst of them.

David proclaimed in Psalms 23:5, “Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.” Your enemies become spectators of your victory. They watch you eat, increase, and advance. They are powerless to stop you because you carry the anointing of God. The Lord Himself places a boundary around your destiny and declares in Psalms 105:14-15, “Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.” When you learn to sit with the Lord, the enemy becomes your proof, your platform, and your promotion. Learn from Jesus, who typically spent the early hours of the day in prayer (Mark 1:35) and observe how you can take advantage of your enemy, no matter how strong they are.

Prophetic Word: I declare that every opposition assigned to delay you shall become the stage upon which God displays His power in your life. Your enemies shall witness your elevation, your peace, your overflow, and your dominion. You will not struggle for victory; you will demonstrate it. In Jesus’ mighty name.

Prayer: Father, I thank You that through Christ I am seated in heavenly places. Today I receive fresh strength, divine wisdom, and supernatural boldness. I decree that every enemy becomes a testimony of Your power in my life. Let Your anointing distinguish me, protect me, and elevate me. I rule in the midst of opposition, and I walk in victory, in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.
