Love Gifts
Psalm 127:3-5 “Children are God’s love-gift; they are heaven’s generous reward. Children born to a young couple will one day rise to protect and provide for their parents …A household full of children will not bring shame… but victory when you face your enemies…” (TPT)
The family as a unit is so powerful. How we curate our children is so powerful regardless of where we are situated. The truth is that the outcome, the product of each family will be fundamentally
Identity
Ephesians 1:5 “God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.”
The families we all are born into actually shape us and shape our idea of love. Do you know that some people struggle to receive love? When you try to show them love they are always deflecting.
God’s Kind
1 Corinthians 13:4 “Love is large and incredibly patient. Love is gentle and consistently kind to all. It refuses to be jealous when blessing comes to someone else. Love does not brag about one’s achievements nor inflate its own importance.” (TPT).
1 Corinthians 13:2 “If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing.”
On Love
1 Corinthians 13:4-6 “Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.”
The first ‘F’ we will be focusing on is Family. You will agree that the family you were born and raised in determined the life you are living today. Your concept of life and your worldview is determined largely by the family you were born into. Therefore, if we have a problem with society at large and people that we are churning out in government and in leadership. We actually have a problem with the family because that is where all our concepts are learned, shaped, and formed. And the concept that is at the foundation of the family is love. The concept of love is learnt in the family. Read the rest of this entry
The Dynamics
2 Kings 4:3-4 “And Elisha said, “Borrow as many empty jars as you can from your friends and neighbours. Then go into your house with your sons and shut the door behind you. Pour oil from your flask into the jars, setting each one aside when it is filled.” (emphasis added)
Please read 2 Kings 4:1-7. In this passage, we see these six components at play. We see Family at play, the woman and her husband had two sons. Read the rest of this entry
The Journey
Psalm 105:19 “Until the time came to fulfil his dreams, the Lord tested Joseph’s character.”
When we think about the word destiny, when we think about our destinies, most times we are thinking about a destination. And very often we are so fixated on the destination that we miss out on many things along the way. Read the rest of this entry
Only Believe
Exodus 23:26 “None shall lose her young by miscarriage or be barren in your land; I will fulfil the number of your days.” (AMPC)
God is breaking every hold of barrenness in the Name of Jesus. Heaven releases you into your fruitfulness in the Mighty Name of Jesus. Read the rest of this entry
Paid In Full
1 Samuel 2:11 “Then Elkanah returned home to Ramah without Samuel. And the boy served the Lord by assisting Eli the priest.”
Yesterday, we began to talk about the fact that what is standing in the way of some people’s fruitfulness is the commitment they made to the Lord but have not followed through. Read the rest of this entry
Be Fruitful!
Genesis 1:28 “Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it. Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground.”
John 8:12 “Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.” The greatest miracle is to come into a relationship with God and be fired up for God.

Uncursable
Numbers 23:23 “No curse can touch Jacob; no magic has any power against Israel. For now it will be said of Jacob, ‘What wonders God has done for Israel!”
Balak must have said, ‘But these people are in disobedience, in rebellion’. And Balaam responded, ‘I went, and I checked the plan (Jeremiah 29:11), there was no misfortune in it for them.’ If you have an evil plan, it is not from God. Read the rest of this entry
