Taking what belong to you 2

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

You need power to take what belongs to you. Why? The first reason is that you must prevail to take what belongs to you, and it takes power to prevail. The second reason is that you must deal with the strongman who might be holding what belongs to you, this also takes power. The third reason is that you must have dominion to terminate servitude. This also needs power. The good news is that the power you need is accessible through the Holy Spirit.

“For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him came the chief ruler; but the birthright was Joseph's:” 1 Chronicles 5:2

“Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.” Matthew 12:29

“And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.” Genesis 27:40

If you are powerless, the enemy will do whatever he likes with your inheritance despite the fact that you are a Christian. Jesus did not leave us powerless. He told us that we need the power from on high to walk in the promise. You need the anointing of the Holy Ghost to walk in power. Ask God to anoint you with the Holy Ghost and power.

May you be empowered to take what belongs to you in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, give me the wisdom and the power to take what belongs to me in Jesus name.

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

Taking what belong to you 1

 “The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.” Deuteronomy 29:29

Although it is yours, you cannot take possession of it until it is revealed to you. Revelation is your access key to your inheritance. As a saint, if you don’t have the spirit of wisdom and revelation, you may suffer like a mere man. You must go beyond what only the flesh and blood can reveal (intellectual) and press into what only God can reveal (Divine wisdom).

“And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Mathew 16:17-18. 

“That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,” Ephesians 1:17-18

The saints can have dominion on earth by revelation; our access to the kingdom treasure on earth is by revelation. But the truth is that revelation is not found on the surface, it is sought out as a man would dig gold or precious stone from the earth. You must spend time with God and ask Him for the spirit of wisdom and revelation. You are more than what you are now and revelation is the key that will take you to where you should be.

May you take what belongs to you in Jesus name.

I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

You can still go!

 “But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard. He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.” Matthew 21:29-30

You can still obey God and do what He asked you to do even though you have said no to Him before. You are useful to God just as you are. You don’t have to be useful to yourself and your family alone. Saying yes to God has both temporal and eternal reward. Jesus said there are many mansions in His Father’s house. In other words, there are rooms for everyone to serve and obey God, no matter who you are.

“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

“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” Mark 16:15

The local congregation where you belong, gives you the avenue to obey God and to serve Him.  Ask yourself what your contribution is, and you would be able to determine whether you have said yes to the Lord or not. In any case, you can still say yes to Him and take your responsibility in the house of God. You should not fold your arms in your Father’s house.

May you be blessed as you say yes to the Lord in Jesus name.

Connect to the Lord’s help

 “I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.  My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.” Psalm 121:1

The help of the Lord is always available, if you will look up unto Him. You cannot fail, no matter how intimidating your dreams are, if you receive help from the Lord. The help of the Lord comes with His strength. The help of the Lord comes with packages from heaven and earth (spiritual and physical). Every successful man has received help.

“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

“But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.” James 4:6

His grace comes with His help. I can assure you that this grace is sufficient for you. The grace replaces your weakness with His strength. You position yourself for the Lord’s help if you can humble yourself and ask for His help. Prioritize your fellowship with Him. Be willing to walk in His light and obey Him. Tell Him that you cannot do without Him.

May you receive the help of the Lord in Jesus name.

Give yourself to instruction

 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Proverbs 1:7

You must be instructed to do things right and to do the right things,. The bible says that only fools despise wisdom and instruction. If you are passionate about excelling, you must seek instructions. When you harden your heart to instruction, you prolong your affliction. You can only change your situation by giving heed to instructions.

“For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.” Matthew 13:15

“Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.” Matthew 13:52

I believe anyone who is willing to grow must take the position of a child who is ready to be instructed. There are people who know better what you are struggling to do, find them and listen to them. You must be instructed in every area of your life: spiritual, financial, marriage, health, relationships, business, and career. As a Christian, your first instructor is the Holy Ghost, listen to Him.

May your heart not be hardened to instructions in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, give a listening ear and an understanding heart in Jesus name.

Pray your helpers in

 “And I said unto the king, If it please the king, and if thy servant have found favour in thy sight, that thou wouldest send me unto Judah, unto the city of my fathers' sepulchres, that I may build it.” Nehemiah 2:5

You will surely need destiny helpers to fulfill your dreams and accomplish your God-given visions. It will profit you to be surrounded by such men and women who God has assigned to help you. Some of these people will counsel you, encourage you, train you, finance you or even take one or two responsibilities and assignments. You must ask God to bring such people into your life. You must also position yourself to attract such people. This is because the vision can perish if there are no right people.

“And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.” Mark 2:3-4

“Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.  For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.” Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

May you be surrounded by people who will make your dream happen. May you not be surrounded by Sanballats and Tobiahs, the people that the devil has positioned to scatter your dreams. May you not be alone. May you have people who are willing to labor with you for your God-given vision. If your dream is right, you cannot fulfill it alone. Be a destiny helper to somebody too, so that God can reward you with many destiny helpers.

Your helpers shall be many in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, send me destiny helpers in Jesus name.

Improve yourself

 “That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;.” Ephesians 4:22-23

Personal development and self-improvement are keys to your growth and success. If you want to do new things you have to know new things. Purposeful learning, reading, association will help you to improve yourself. More importantly, you need to grow in grace through the knowledge of God. Your level of faith needs to be increased too. The truth is that if your dreams and visions are challenging enough, you will surely need personal improvement to achieve them.

“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

“For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.” Proverbs 23:7

If you engage in personal improvement, your mindset will change. Your thinking will be stimulated. Your confidence will be boosted. You will be better positioned to receive what God has for you. Identify the learning you need and get into it quickly.

You shall have a breakthrough quickly this year in Jesus name.
