Shut The Door!
‘Then go into your house with your sons and shut the door behind you. Pour olive oil from the flask into the jars, setting each one aside when it is filled’ 2 Kings 4:4
Principle #7 is the closet principle. The closet principle simply states that multiplication occurs in the dark. Children grow while sleeping. Plants grow roots underground. Even reproduction takes place in the dark. ‘Then go into your house with your sons and shut the door behind you. Pour olive oil from your flask into the jars, setting each one aside when it is filled”. Shut the door behind you! Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. It is like a house, you mouth is a door – shut Read the rest of this entry
You Have Oil!
‘What can I do to help you? Elisha asked. ‘Tell me, what do you have in the house?” “Nothing at all, except a flask of olive oil,” she replied’ 2 Kings 4:2
‘So she did as she was told. Her sons kept bringing jar to her, and she filled one after another’ 2 kings 4:5. Many of us are looking up to God for a miracle. But you see, God will not do by miracle what we can do in obedience. God has told you do ‘A’, just do it! It does not matter if ‘A’ does not make sense, or if it will cost you a lot, or if you have never done it before. God says, ‘I want to do what has never happened in your lifetime before. So I am going to ask you to do what you have Read the rest of this entry
Obey Divine Direction
‘So she did as she was told. Her sons kept bringing jar to her, and she filled one after another’ 2 kings 4:5.
In time past, I was driving in London and had to attend church. I did not know the routes so I had to drive using a GPS navigator. But that fateful, morning there was road construction going on and the GPS had not updated itself. It did not know that there was a roadblock so it took me right to it. And I began to wonder how I will get to church; of course the GPS was recalculating, and I did not want to get to church late. I wasn’t preaching, in fact they don’t even know me in the church.

Divine Direction
‘Then at last the Lord said to me, ‘You have been wandering around in this hill country long enough; turn to the north’ Deut. 2:2-3
Principle #3 is the principle of divine direction. The principle of divine direction simply states that God knows your way out of poverty. Go and get that direction from Him. In the part of the world that I come from, they say ‘it is God that knows the path to wealth’ [Yoruba proverb translated]. In other words, there is something that you need to do to be successful but God alone know what it is. There is a path that the fowl of the air does not even know. There is a God in heaven that knows Read the rest of this entry
Please Pray!
‘She threw her arms around him and kissed him, and with a brazen look she said, “I’ve just made my peace offerings and fulfilled my vows’ Prov.7:13-14
The fourth thing she did is that she engaged the supernatural. She did not only plan for him, dress for him, promise him secrecy, she engaged the supernatural just to catch him. Some ladies engage the powers of witchcraft just to capture men. Wives, please pray for your husbands because there are other women out there that are going to some serious lengths to capture them. A lady once confessed that the power she uses to capture men is that she washes her ‘privates’ Read the rest of this entry
Discern The Prey
‘Love wisdom like a sister; make insight a beloved member of your family. Let them protect you from an affair with an immoral woman, from listening to the flattery of a promiscuous woman’ Prov.7:4-5.
When it comes to one person leading another person to sexual sin, women are mostly deceived and men are mostly seduced. It is possible to seduce a woman and to deceive a man but women are mostly deceived and men are mostly seduced. ‘And it was not Adam who was deceived by satan. The woman was deceived, and sin was the result’ 1Tim.2:14. It was Eve and not Adam who was deceived. Why didn’t the serpent speak to Read the rest of this entry
The Key Of Communication I
‘It’s only the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden that we are not allowed to eat. God said, ‘You must not eat or even touch it; if you do, you will die’ Gen.3:3
The third key to having a great relationship whether married or single is the key of communication. All these keys are from Adam and Eve’s relationship. Adam failed on two grounds. Firstly, Adam failed to communicate accurately with Eve. And that is almost always a problem in our homes. The way men communicate is different from the way women communicate. A man will just summarize and give you bullet points and go on with his Read the rest of this entry
The Key Of Being
‘He gave names to all the livestock, all the birds of the sky, and all the wild animals. But still there was no helper just right for him’ Gen.2:20
Over the next few days we will be discussing three keys to having a great relationship. The first key to having a great relationship whether married or single is the key of being. Adam was not busy going from one singles event to another trying to look good and not even listening to the speaker. Many singles these days are what I call paranoid. They go from one place to the other just trying to make themselves available. And if the women Read the rest of this entry
Just A Smile
‘Good-tempered leaders invigorate lives; they’re like spring rain and sunshine’ Prov.16:15 [MSG]
Another invaluable thing we can give this season is a smile. You can give a smile to your neighbor. Try it out and see how much warmth it brings to your relationship. Some of us see our neighbors while driving out of our houses but we just keep a straight face. It does not cost you anything to give them a smile. They say it is more difficult to frown than to smile because the face uses a lot more muscles to frown than to smile. God wants us to be radiant. You cannot frown and be radiant at the same time. The gospel is the Good Read the rest of this entry
Keep Your Life
‘For the Scriptures say, if you want to enjoy life and see many happy days, keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies. Turn away from evil and do good. Search for peace, and work to maintain it’’ 1Peter 3:10-11
‘In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. The Word gave life to everything that was created…’ John1:1-4. You and I have been created in the image of God. This also means that God has given us power in our mouths and the words we speak. Therefore as children of God we must watch every word that comes out of our mouth. ‘Those who control their Read the rest of this entry
