You can turn it into a testimony!

“And it shall turn to you for a testimony.” Luke 21:13 KJV

When you look at your challenges, always see a potential testimony. This is because Jesus said it, and you believe it. So, refuse to worry; instead, do what the Word of God instructs: Speak to it (Mark 11:23), Pray about it (Philippians 4:6), Act on what God tells you to do (John 2:5), Never doubt His promises (James 1:6). If you ever feel intimidated by your situation, read Psalm 20 aloud. Keep doing what you should do until your testimony appears, because it will.

"Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us." Romans 8:37 (KJV)

In all things, not some, you are more than a conqueror. The victory is already won for you; all you need is faith and patience to see it manifest (Hebrews 6:12, 1 John 5:4, 2 Peter 1:5-7). Your testimony is now in Jesus' name!

Prophetic Word: I prophesy that this is your week of remarkable testimony, in Jesus’ name!

Prayer: I claim victory over every challenging situation in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Is there not a cause?

“And David said, What have I now done? Is there not a cause?” 1 Samuel 17:29 KJV

When David spoke these words, he was not merely defending himself from his brothers’ misunderstanding; he was affirming his sense of purpose. Every challenge in life, every battle you face, carries a divine reason. There is a cause, even if you cannot see it yet. I encourage you to look for the godly reason behind every event. Your interpretation of your situation determines your response and outcome. The way you see it is powerful, but the way God sees it is supreme. You must see it the way God sees it. Romans 8:28 reminds us that “all things work together for good to them that love God.” Even when things appear confusing or painful, God is weaving a purpose through it all.

"Now the Lord had told Samuel the previous day, "About this time tomorrow, I will send you a man from the land of Benjamin. Anoint him to be the leader of my people, Israel..." 1 Samuel 9:15-16 (New Living)

Saul’s lost donkeys seemed like a random misfortune, yet it was God’s setup for his divine appointment. What looked like a frustrating errand was actually a pathway to destiny. In the same way, what appears as delay, loss, or hardship in your life may be God’s method of positioning you for something greater. There is a reason, and it is good!

Prophetic Word: I decree that the outcome of your present challenge shall be positive and good, in Jesus’ name. What was meant to weary you will work for you; what was meant to break you will build you, in Jesus’ name

Prayer: Oh God, show me something concerning what I am passing through. Open my eyes to see Your purpose and align me with Your will. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Laws of Access 5

“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.” Ephesians 3:20 KJV

As we conclude the teaching on the laws of access, let me share with you one of the greatest habits that can open any door: the habit of praying through and thinking through. Nothing manifests in your physical life unless it has first been conceived in your spirit and mind. The door you have not accessed in your spirit and in your thoughts cannot open to you in the physical. Every breakthrough begins with a vision within.

Our text reveals that we can generate divine power to open any door by engaging two actions: asking and thinking. Psalm 2:8, “Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.” Jeremiah 33:3, “Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.” Proverbs 23:7a, “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he.” Philippians 4:8, “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true… think on these things.”

When you pray and think, you see, and what you see, you can access. As God said to Jeremiah, “Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it” (Jeremiah 1:12), and to Abraham, “Lift up now thine eyes… for all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it” (Genesis 13:14–15).

Prophetic Word: I prophesy over you that as you begin to ask and think in alignment with the word of God, you will see the impossible and achieve the impossible, in Jesus’ name

Prayer: Oh God, give me a breakthrough destiny. Let the power to pray through and think through rest upon me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Laws of Access 4

“The labour of the foolish wearieth every one of them, because he knoweth not how to go to the city.” Ecclesiastes 10:15 KJV

Ignorance and inaction both limit access. It is not enough to have opportunities; you must also know how to enter and sustain them. Wisdom and understanding are the twin keys of access, yet among all kinds of wisdom, only divine wisdom unlocks every door. James 3:15–17 identifies four dimensions of wisdom: Common sense – born of experience and exposure; Intellectual wisdom – acquired through study; Satanic wisdom – manipulative and deceptive, acquired through contact with evil spirits; Divine wisdom – pure, peaceable, and full of mercy, acquired through contact with the Holy Spirit and the Word of God.  

Divine wisdom is the master key. It opens doors that strength, education, or influence cannot. Joseph’s story illustrates this: his gift of interpretation opened a door before Pharaoh, but it was his wise counsel that kept it open (Genesis 41:39). Wisdom gains access and preserves it.

“And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.” Isaiah 30:21

“Thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.” Isaiah 48:17

Your advantage as a child of God is that you have unhindered access to the wisdom of God. This means you can have any access related to God's call on your life if you choose to take it.

Prophetic Word: I decree that every barrier before you collapses by divine wisdom. You are advancing forcefully by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Oh God, teach me what to do, and lead me in the right path for Your glory. Let Your wisdom open every door of destiny before me, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Laws of Access 3

“Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.” Psalm 24:7-8 KJV

What authority can you wield in the presence of a gate that denies you access? Think of these: Moses stretched out his rod, and the Red Sea parted, giving access to the Israelites (Exodus 14:21–22); Samson arose at midnight, uprooted the gates of the city, and carried them to a mountain (Judges 16:3); Four friends uncovered the roof of a crowded house to lay their sick friend before Jesus when the door was inaccessible (Mark 2:3–4). When denied access through the door, they created their own. Authority takes bold steps and challenges man-made and spiritual barriers. Sometimes, access is gained by refusing to accept “no” as final.

The gate that leads into the city spontaneously opened for Peter and the Lord's angel (Acts 12:10). This shows that spiritual authority unlocks supernatural access. Some gates will not open voluntarily; they yield only to the demonstration of strength, influence, or divine authority. As a child of God, you carry that authority (Luke 10:19; Matthew 16:19). Therefore, you can access every door necessary to fulfil your purpose on earth (Psalm 2:8; Isaiah 45:1–3).

Prophetic Word: I prophesy over you that every gate of hindrance and barrier is giving way before you; doors of destiny, opportunity, and favor are opening now, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Father, every gate that must open for me to manifest destiny, open by fire! I decree divine access into every place of my purpose, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Laws of Access 2

“And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest. But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.” John 18:15-16 KJV

Acquaintance facilitates access. Access often begins through an introduction. Peter entered the high priest’s palace because another disciple, known to the high priest, spoke for him. Many doors in life open not merely because of who you are, but because of who knows you and who is willing to speak on your behalf.

Connections grow when you nurture acquaintances into meaningful, covenant-level relationships. Access is not sustained by manipulation or convenience but by service, loyalty, and integrity. Relationships that are properly valued will defend and recommend you even in your absence. Proverbs 18:24 says, “A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.”

Naomi’s acquaintance with Boaz created access for Ruth. Her wisdom and relationship opened a door that Ruth could not have opened by herself. It is often divine strategy for elevation that God connects you to someone whose voice can grant you access to your next season. “Then Naomi her mother in law said unto her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for thee, that it may be well with thee? And now is not Boaz of our kindred, with whose maidens thou wast? Behold, he winnoweth barley to night in the threshingfloor.” Ruth 3:1-2.

Avoid being a parasite in relationships. Even if you feel you have little to offer, there is always a way to serve or add value. Listen, honor, and obey the divine instructions that come through those you are connected to. Your destiny helpers often have helpers they can introduce you to, but they will only do so when they discern faithfulness, humility, and service in you.

Prophetic Word: I decree that in this season, the Lord will open your eyes to recognize the strategic relationships He has placed around you. You will discern them, serve faithfully, and through them enter the doors ordained for your destiny, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Prayer: Oh God, give me wisdom to recognize, value, and nurture the relationships You have placed around me. Teach me to serve faithfully and to maintain divine connections that will lead me into destiny fulfillment, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Laws of Access 1

“A man’s gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.” Proverbs 18:16 KJV

Your gift is your access card. Gifts, whether in the form of talents, resources, service, or kindness, create opportunities (Luke 7:1-6). They soften hearts and unlock doors that status or effort alone cannot open. Use your gifts to bring solutions to your world.  When you solve problems others cannot, kings will call for you, honor you, and entrust you with authority (Daniel 2:47-48). Joseph interpreted Pharaoh’s dream and provided a survival plan. Pharaoh declared in Genesi 41:41, “See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.” Solutions grant undeniable access.

“Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 5:14-16

“Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.” 1 Timothy 4:14.

As a child of God, you have gifts. The world is in darkness; you are the light, the solution they need. Don’t neglect your gift, don’t despise your gift, fan it to flame (2 Timothy 1:6 NIV)

Prophetic Word: I prophesy over you that you shall no longer be hidden, your gifts shall make room for you, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Oh God, take me out of obscurity and bring me into the limelight, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Look up to God!

“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:2 KJV

When you look up to God, you open your heart to receive the help, encouragement, and faith you need for life’s journey, and you will never be put to shame.

“They looked to Him and were radiant, And their faces were not ashamed.” Psalm 34:5

“I will lift up my eyes to the hills—From whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.” Psalm 121:1-2

The direction of your look determines the direction of your strength.

When you look down, you see your problems; when you look around, you see distractions; but when you look up, you see God’s unlimited power.

He is almighty, able to do all things. He gives strength to the faint, faith to the weak, and hope to the weary. As you keep your eyes on Him, He will equip you with everything you need to rise above challenges and win every battle.

Prophetic Word: I prophesy over you that you will testify about God’s faithfulness and power in your life this week, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Oh God, as I look up to you, I receive the help and the faith that I need at this time, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Self-confidence!

 “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” Philippians 4:13 KJV

As a child of God, you must never doubt yourself. The Spirit of God dwells in you (1 John 4:4). Through Christ Jesus, you carry the wisdom and the power of God (1 Corinthians 1:24). You have the authority to decree a thing, and it shall be established (Job 22:28). You can speak to the mountain, and it will obey (Mark 11:23). When you pass through fire, it shall not burn you; when you pass through the waters, they shall not overflow you (Isaiah 43:2).

Consider these examples:

·        Peter said to the lame man, “…what I have I give unto you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk” (Acts 3:6). That was self-confidence rooted in faith in the name of Jesus.

·        David told King Saul, “Let no man’s heart fail because of him; thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine” (1 Samuel 17:32). To Goliath, he declared, “This day will the Lord deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee” (1 Samuel 17:45–47).

True confidence is not arrogance. It is boldness founded on the truth that God has empowered you: “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” (2 Timothy 1:7). Without self-confidence, you cannot achieve much. However, when your confidence is anchored in Christ, you will always find a way to overcome.

Prophetic Word: I prophesy over you that from today, you will confront every challenge with the assurance that you can handle it effectively and successfully, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Oh God, let my thoughts, words, and actions reflect the fact that You live in me. Let my life be a testimony of confidence in Christ, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Go for hard things!

“Ah Lord God! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:” Jeremiah 32:17 KJV

Go for hard things, and God will support you because He is the God who does hard things. You see, if you claim to be a Child of God, you must behave like him. Whatever you think is hard, go after it and ask God to help you! David went after Goliath. Joshua stopped the sun and the moon. Elisha asked for a double portion of Elijah’s spirit. Peter walked on water. You won't be distinct doing normal things. If poverty has existed in your lineage, go after it and put an end to it. This is your season.

Prophetic Word: I prophesy over you that you will not be normal, but you shall be supernatural in your thinking, speaking, and acting, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Oh God, fill me with Your Spirit and power, help me to be like You in my dealings among men in Jesus’ name. Amen.

If you are wise, you will….

“The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death. Good understanding giveth favour: but the way of transgressors is hard.” Proverbs 13:14-15 KJV

If you are wise, you will acknowledge the existence of God and put Him first in your decisions, plans, and actions: “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33

If you are wise, you will do what God says: “Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock.” Matthew 7:24

If you are wise, you will prepare yourself properly for what you want to do: “But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.” Matthew 25:4

If you are wise, you will work hard and smartly: “Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.” Proverbs 6:6

“If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct.” Ecclesiastes 10:10

If you are wise, you will acquire and use relevant information: “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.” — Proverbs 12:15.

Prophetic Word: I prophesy over you: You will always know what to do, and you will walk in wisdom all the days of your life, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Oh God, give me wisdom to deal wisely in all affairs of life. Let me walk in Your counsel and make the right decisions, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

See differently!

“Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou? And I said, I see a rod of an almond tree. Then said the Lord unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it.” Jeremiah 1:11-12 KJV

You must see differently to live differently. To understand how to see differently, you need to first recognize that the sights that actually change our lives are the pictures in our mind and our spirit. The only way to make the eyes of your mind see differently is by renewing it (Romans 12:2). This is achieved primarily through meditation, reading, learning, and the images we regularly see with our physical eyes. The eyes of the spirit, on the other hand, are sharpened through spiritual exercises like continuous fellowship with God in prayer and fasting.

What you see with your mind and with your spirit is superior to what you see physically (2 Kings 6:15-17, 2 Corinthians 5:7). Fortunately, you can choose what you see and subsequently change your life (Jeremiah 1:11-12). I decree that your eyes of understanding are enlightened in Jesus' name.

Prophetic Word: I prophesy over you that you will see well, in Jesus' name.

Prayer: Oh God, put Your light in my spirit and my mind in Jesus’ name, Amen.
