No Stress
“But the Lord said to her, “My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her.” Luke 10:41-42 [emphasis added].
The way the Word of God is, you have to keep hearing it over and over again. The Bible tells us that faith comes by hearing. God’s Word for us all is Victory. I am confident that as you keep hearing this Word and you open your heart to God, God will do what only He can do in your life and in your situation, in Jesus Name. If you are going to have victory, it is up to you. It is not going to be up to the witch in the village, if there is any. It is not going to be up to that wicked relative that does not wish you well. It is not going to be up to that mean parent that has spoken ill of you. It is not going to be up to your cousin who keeps stealing from you. It is going to be up to you. The earlier you brace up Read the rest of this entry
It Is Finished
“But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory” 1Cor.2:7-8 [emphasis added]
Let the party begin. I can imagine the party in hell. The jubilating, the victory stories, the dancing, and the drinking, and imagine them patting each other on the back. The party lasted day one, day two and on the third day they heard the deafening sound of footsteps coming towards them. Who can that be? Everyone was complete. So who is coming? And the order came, “go and check!” A demon ran and came back with this report; “you would not believe it Read the rest of this entry
Secrets Things
“But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory” 1Cor.2:7-8 [emphasis added]
If you check the life of Jesus, it is filled with surprises. The way Jesus was born was a surprise. Surprise to Herod. Surprise to Joseph and even to Mary. Imagine you are Mary’s father and your young virgin daughter comes to tell you she is pregnant. After you have calmed down and sharpened your cutlass, you would ask her who the man responsible is. If she says it is the Holy Ghost, how do you deal with that? Surprise!
When it was time for Jesus to choose His disciples, He chose sinners and unlikely people. In summary, Jesus picked Read the rest of this entry
To Yourself
“Then Delilah pouted, “How can you tell me, ‘I love you,’ when you don’t share your secrets with me? You’ve made fun of me three times now, and you still haven’t told me what makes you so strong!” Judges16:15
You need to realize that what makes you who God has made you to be is that your special source. Everybody has it. But sadly, some people’s own is everywhere because they have spoken about it to everyone. Keep it to yourself. Samson was a strong man. He had a secret but he had a girl in his life – Delilah, who consistently asked him to tell her his secret. Read the rest of this entry
Undisclosed
“He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand]” Ps.91:1 [AMP]
Keep your mouth shut! What a way to start today’s devotional right? Surprise! When God gives you an idea, He expects that you incubate the idea. As you incubate the idea, you are generating spiritual power to birth the idea. Keep your mouth shut! Sometimes it is just one particular person, even if you do not tell anybody else, once you tell that person the Read the rest of this entry
Secrecy
“He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand]” Ps.91:1 [AMP]
The second ingredient of surprise is Secrecy; in fact, it is secrecy coupled with deception in many cases. Fredrick the Great said, “Everything which the enemy least expects will succeed the best.” So check, what does the enemy least expect? Everything the enemy least expects will succeed the best. If the actions of the attacking commander are not conducted in complete secrecy, he is only going to surprise himself, and not the enemy. If there is something God needs you to execute with complete secrecy and you do not execute it with complete secrecy, by the time you are Read the rest of this entry
Think On These
“And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise” Phil.4:8
Today, we will start off with the story of a man called Tom Monaghan. I pray that the Holy Spirit will open your heart to the importance of speed and give you speed also, in Jesus Name. Tom Monaghan was a pizza delivery boy for an Italian pizza outfit in the U.S. And he observed that whenever he delivered the pizza, his customers were not happy. The customers were always on edge and this Read the rest of this entry
Speed
“So Abraham ran back to the tent and said to Sarah. “Hurry! Get three large measures of your best flour, knead it into dough, and bake some bread” Gen.18:6
There are two factors that produce surprise; the first one is Speed, and the second one is Secrecy. In other words, Speed and Secrecy produce surprise.
#1. Speed. God expects you to move quickly. You have an objective, move quickly. Sun Tzu, the Read the rest of this entry
First Attack
“When the people heard the sound of the rams’ horns, they shouted as loud as they could. Suddenly, the walls of Jericho collapsed, and the Israelites charged straight into the town and captured it” Jos.6:20
In 1950 North Korea attacked South Korea by surprise and almost took out the whole nation including the allied forces; the U.S. who was behind them. But the military general of the Americans also launched a counter surprise in the Inch’on landing. And He cut off the supplies of North Korea. North Korea practically starved to death [No water, no food, no medical supplies]; the war came to an Read the rest of this entry
Surprise!
“Now all glory to God, who is able, through His mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think” Eph.3:20
God can do exceedingly abundantly above all you can ask or think. The Biblical definition of surprise is to cause to feel wonder, astonishment, and amazement. In other words, that Scripture is saying God is able to surprise. God is able to surprise you, able to surprise me, and able to surprise our enemies. As the general Read the rest of this entry
