Celebrating the birth of Christ

“And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.” Mathew 1:21

God ordained that Jesus Christ be born for Him(God) to touch the world. Jesus is the word became flesh and we are flesh. It is the flesh that can save, help and deliver the flesh. This is the reason behind the birth of Christ.

Beloved, I know you have your own plans as to how you will celebrate this Christmas but do your plans include touching other people’s lives? Do you have around you people that do not have cloth, shoes, food and the necessities of life? Then you will be doing the same thing God did by bringing about the birth of Christ if you move to meet their physical needs.

Celebration of good things will not cease in your home in Jesus name.
Merry Xmas.

Why You Have Been Winning

“Hast thou not heard long ago how I have done it, and of ancient times that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste fenced cities into ruinous heaps. Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the housetops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.” 2Kings 19:25

Beloved, give God praise because you have been winning and succeeding because of His backing in your life.

Sennacherib the King of Assyria had been conquering nations and he came to attack Judah. In his words to Hezekiah and Judah, he boasted of conquest as if it was by his might that all the exploits were done. Hezekiah presented Sennacherib letter to the Lord. The Lord now spoke the words of our text through His prophet. It was clear that Sennacherib did all the exploits because God ordained it to be so. God actually weaken the Nations before him so that he could conquer them. Beloved, people who have better qualifications, connections, skills, failed this year but because God is on your side you have been winning. God has sent me to open your eyes to giving him high praise and thanksgiving for His backing in your life.

You will continue to win and succeed in Jesus name.
Wishing you a merry Christmas and a happy new year.

Truly blessed

“Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.” Ps 32:1

Sin is the disease of the Spirit, Poverty is the disease of the Soul (Mind) and Sickness is the disease of the Body. Satan is the origin of all these but Jesus provides solution to all. Jesus took our position of sin, poverty and sickness so that we might be free (Is 53:5, 2cor 8:9, 3John 1:2).

If you are wealthy but you are living in disobedience to God, you are not blessed because if you fail to repent you will end up in hell fire (Luke 16:19-31). If you are saved from sin and you are sick in your body or live in poverty, you are not blessed. A truly blessed man is saved from sin, has material blessings and is healthy.

Now the truth is that Jesus has finished the work for you to be truly blessed, what you need to do is to enforce what He has done for you. Let every wicked person repent and prayed through his salvation. Let every poor saint believe God, act on His word and pray through his prosperity, Let every sick saint believe God, act on His word and pray through his healings.

Beloved, if you are truly blessed, stay blessed; if you need to be blessed, get blessed.

Your Wilderness is Over

"Speak tenderly to Jerusalem. Tell her that her sad days are gone..." Is 40:2 New living Translation.
The time of wilderness is a time of endurance,discipline and patience but after it comes the promise land where there is joy of accomplishment, fulfilment and abundance.

God told me to tell you that your wilderness is over, your sad days are gone!!!

40days in the wilderness is the school great men pass through before their manifestation. Our Lord Jesus went through it and He came out in the power of the Spirit (Lk 4:14). David, Joseph and Daniel went through it and came out to take the throne. It was a preparation time for their great destinies to take shape. It cannot be prayed or fasted out but grace is available. Someone said if gold is your choice,furnace must necessarily be your passage. 40days in the wilderness can be interpreted to mean different durations in the lives of men. For some, it may be few weeks while for others it may be some months but after it is the promised land. Now forty one days (any extra day) in the wilderness is abnormal. It happened to the Isrealites (40years) so that we can learn from them. 1Cor 10: 1-10 gave us five keys to put an end to wilderness in our lives.These are:
1. Desire good things
2. Dont allow any other thing to take the place of God in your life
3. Dont pollute your body
4. Believe God's word and promises
5. Don't murmur but give praise to God as you enter into your promise land.
Your wilderness is over. Your prayers are answered. It is your time for your promised land in Jesus name.

The Year 2008 Not Over Yet

“In the year that Evilmerodach became king of Babylonia, he showed kindness to King Jehoiachin of Judah by releasing him from prison. This happened on the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth month of the thirty-seventh year after Jehoiachin had been taken away as prisoner.” 2kings 25:27.

Hear the word of the Lord, this year is not over yet, it will still deliver your expectation. May be you are believing God for something, is it the salvation of a loved one or spiritual blessing? Is it promotion or material blessing? Is it the fruit of the womb or marital blessing? Is it healing or deliverance? Beloved, whatever it is that you are believing God for, don’t give up, God will still visit you this year in the name of Jesus.

Jehoiachin had been a prisoner for 37years but his miracle came in December 27 of a particular year. He thought he would end that year in captivity but God turned his situation around. If you read the next verse, he was not only released but was also blessed. I declare to you that your expectation shall not be cut off in the name of Jesus.

Cast all your burden on Jesus because He cares for you.

Strategize

“And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature. And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.” Luke 19:3-4

Sometimes you may have a God-given goal to accomplish and yet, the environment is not conducive and your personal attribute is not favorable; then what do you do? Hear the word of the Lord, you can still accomplish your goal, only strategize.

Zacchaeus wanted to see Jesus, that is worthwhile, isn’t it? Unfortunately the crowd was much, that is, the environment was harsh and also he was a short man - his personal attribute was not supportive either. Many would have given up but not Zacchaeus, he strategized: he found a Sycamore tree ahead, ran ahead of the crowd and climbed it. As a result Jesus located him and he was a host to Jesus the same day.

Beloved, there is a way to beat your limitations and accomplish your goal, find it. You may have to pray, think or study, in any case search it out and strategize.

Your Destiny shall manifest in Jesus name.

Experts’ report vs God’s report

“And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives. Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul.” Act 27:10-11.

When the reports of Experts contradict God’s report, discard experts’ report and believe God’s report.

On the voyage to Rome, Paul perceived trouble ahead but the owners of the ship, the experts said they should continue. The Centurion accepted the experts’ advice and discarded Paul’s advice. As a result the voyage went through trouble and they almost lost their lives.

A Pastor friend told me a pathetic story of a couple who are believing God for the fruit of the womb. They had a surgery scheduled for the woman for fibroid. But the woman remembered that she had missed her period for two months. The experts adviced that they should go ahead with the surgery without doing another scan. The Couple so much trusted the expert that they did not even tell their Pastor. The Doctor apologized to them last week that his conscience would not allow him to rest because as he started the surgery, he discovered a life baby in the womb of the woman.

Beloved, it is better to obey God rather than men. It is also more blessed to trust God rather than men.
Remain blessed.
