Absalom Spirit II
‘For the Lord disciplines those he loves, and punishes each one he accepts as his child’ Heb.12:6
Watch out for the spirit of Absalom. The spirit of Absalom would say, “that is their ruling but if I were the head of that department, my ruling would favour you”. That is an Absalom spirit right there. “If only Pastor will be spiritual enough and make me the department head, you will see how this department will make progress”. For four years, Absalom was patient and consistent. The Bible says he bought a chariot, he hired fifty bodyguards and he Read the rest of this entry
Make Haste
‘We must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent us. The night is coming, and then no one can work’ John 9:4
‘“How I wish today that you of all people would understand the way to peace. But now it is too late, and peace is hidden from your eyes. Before long your enemies will build ramparts against your walls and encircle you and close in on you from every side.’ Luke19:42-43. I am praying today that you will know the time that God has come to save you. For some people they think they can get born again whenever they want to get born again. The Bible says don’t harden your heart when God calls you Read the rest of this entry
Action Time
“We realize that we have sinned, but now we are ready to enter the land the Lord has promised us.” But Moses said, …It won’t work. Do not go up into the land now. You will only be crushed by your enemies because the Lord is not with you’ Num.14:40-42
The second thing you need to understand when it comes to moving forward is called the Window of Response. Please read Numbers 14. The truth is while you will always have time as long as you are alive, you will never always have an opportune time. Imagine you are at the T-junction waiting for the light to change and there is a long line of cars behind you. Your windows are up, music playing, and your head is down and you are texting. Once the light changes to green, what happens to all the cars Read the rest of this entry
A Message For You III
‘The righteous person faces many troubles, but the Lord comes to the rescue each time’ Ps.34:19.
Remember, God says develop a thick skin and a soft heart. You can’t respond to everything you that happens or people say, you will kill yourself. Some of us make it our duty to respond to everything; you will just ware yourself out. Why, because pain is the companion of dreamer. It is possible that some people cannot relate to this right now because you are a dreamer but you don’t have pain. That’s fine, take note and keep it for the future. Craig Groeschel said “the quickest way to forget what God thinks about Read the rest of this entry
Seek Wisdom, Secure Favour
‘All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people…’ 2 Tim.3:16-17
There are things that God will show you that are just for you. Be wise not to share it with anyone. I don’t think that is what God wants you to do; perhaps just your spouse alone, but do it wisely. ‘Tune your ears to wisdom, and concentrate on understanding. Cry out for insight, and ask for understanding. Search for them as you would for silver; seek them like hidden treasures’ Prov.2:2-4. This is why you need to have a relationship with Read the rest of this entry
Game Changer
‘“These patriarchs were jealous of their brother Joseph, and they sold him to be a slave in Egypt. But God was with him’ Acts 7:9.
Joseph was hated for being favoured. To compound Joseph’s problem, he was a favoured dreamer. If you are favoured, you will attract attacks. If you are a dreamer, you will attract attacks. Now combine both, a favoured dreamer – double jeopardy! So Joseph was doubly hated. ‘One night Joseph had a dream, and when he told his brothers about it, they hated him more than ever’ Gen.37:5. The first level of hatred his brothers had for him was for the favour. The second Read the rest of this entry
Seeking God
‘The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name ’Ps. 91:14.
The second thing you need to know about attracting God’s favour is that it is for those that are hungry for it. God said to Moses, I ‘will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy’. And Moses said start with me. And it occurred to me that it appears that it is people that ask that receive. It is people that go to God and place a demand for it that God releases to. So Moses said, God here I am [Ex.34:8-9]. I pray to God like this Read the rest of this entry
Understanding Favour
‘For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly’ Ps.84:11 KJV
You need to celebrate favour because envy insulates you from God’s favour. Envy builds a shield around you so even if your time for favour comes, guess what happens, the shield of envy repels it. That will not be your portion in Jesus Name. You need to rid your heart totally of envy. There is nothing anybody has that I am envious of – nothing. And I do that deliberately because if I really need anything, God says He will not withhold anything good from them that fear Read the rest of this entry
The Truth About Favour
‘A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity’ Prov.17:17 [NIV]
The reality of favour is that favour attracts attacks. ‘A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity’ Prov.17:17 [NIV]. Joseph’s bothers that were born for adversity hated him. Meaning Joseph was practically hopeless. Many times we wonder that if it is true we are favoured, then how come we are struggling here and there? The truth is that sometimes it is really because you are favoured that is why you are struggling. Look at Job; he was just on Read the rest of this entry
