You Need To Know I
‘They were completely amazed. “How can this be?” they exclaimed. “These people are all from Galilee’ Acts.2:7
God also blesses those that don’t agree with us. The fact that God is doing awesome things in your life, and you do not agree with your brother does not mean God will stop doing great things in his life. God will bless the people you disagree with inspite of the fact that you disagree with them. You may be one of those who think that this is totally unfair. Some people think that Read the rest of this entry
Manifest Presence
‘And everyone present was filled with the Holy Spirit and began speaking in other languages… But others in the crowd ridiculed them, saying, “They’re just drunk, that’s all!” Acts2:4 & 13
You have to live your life void of fear of people ridiculing you or calling you names. And plug into the purposes of God. The disciples were wise enough to separate themselves as Jesus instructed and wait for the promise. When they received the promise, some people’s reaction was to ridicule them. Ignore the jesters. The Holy Spirit is the power of God. He is God Himself. He is the Read the rest of this entry
Debunking Lies III
‘It is not that we think we are qualified to do anything on our own. Our qualification comes from God’ 2 Cor.3:5
The enemy will try to put things in our way to convince us that we are insignificant and unimportant. Another lie the enemy says is that you are not good enough. He says things like, you are not so bad but you are not good enough. You need to become better to matter. The truth is that you and I can never be good enough in your own strength [Isa.64:6]. Yet in Christ Jesus, you are good enough for God. In your own strength you cannot be good enough. No matter how hard you try. It is impossible. Yet when you Read the rest of this entry
The Anointing
‘And you know that God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. Then Jesus went around doing good and healing… for God was with him.’ Acts 10:38
The presence of God creates the anointing. And the anointing sustains the presence. They go hand in hand. If Jesus needed the anointing, trust me, you need the anointing too. God anointed Jesus and He will anoint you too but you must desire it. The anointing does a couple of things in the life of every believer besides breaking yokes. The anointing enables you to walk in the supernatural, Jesus was anointed and He was able to walk in the supernatural. There anointing prepares you for the work that Read the rest of this entry
Little Beginnings II
‘He tells us everything over and over— one line at a time, one line at a time, a little here, and a little there!’ Isa.28:10
The days of little beginnings are not days of lazy beginnings. The Bible says, ‘the Lord rejoices to see the work begin’. The foundation of every project is the most important part. God wants to teach you the little things that lead to establishment. Pay attention. ‘…one line at a time, one line at a time, a little here, and a little there’. Excusing laziness at your foundational stage will only lead to lack. Little beginnings can also be equated to the place of waiting perhaps for the next big thing or for the doors to open unto you. God has placed Read the rest of this entry
Little Beginnings I
‘Do not despise these small beginnings, for the LORD rejoices to see the work begin…’ Zech.4:10
A lot of times we are so caught up with racing to the top that we miss out on vital lessons we need to learn along the way to the top. Never ignore the things you think are time wasting or useless. Most of the time, these are the lessons you will need in future. We are always so caught up with the seemingly big things that we tend to miss out on, overlook and grumble about the seemingly little things God is doing. ‘He who is faithful in little will be faithful in much’. It is the little things that God has begun that will lead you to the Read the rest of this entry
Incompetence
‘Seest thou a man diligent in his business? He shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men’ Proverbs.22:29 [KJV]
‘Using a dull axe requires great strength, so sharpen the blade. That’s the value of wisdom; it helps you succeed’ Ecc.10:10. You have been given the axe and the wood, however succeeding at this task is tied to sharpening the blade of the axe. Incompetence would mean knowing the blade needs to be sharpened but refusing to sharpen it. Incompetence is the bane of a lot of people. Many times, we excuse incompetence when we should not. For instance, a math teacher who does not know how to solve equations has no business teaching Read the rest of this entry
The Daniel Spirit
‘Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was found in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm’ Daniel.6:3 [KJV]
Excellence is what sets you apart from average. To excel is to go beyond the ordinary. An excellent person is always preferred and selected above people who are just good. God has placed a seed of excellence in everyone He created. All we need to do is develop that seed up to the fruit bearing stage. Daniel did not become excellent when he interpreted Nebuchadnezzar’s dream. His excellence didn’t start when he interpreted the writings on the wall, neither did it start when the king put him in charge of the whole kingdom. His Read the rest of this entry
Dispelling Storms:Personal Revelation
‘…Elisha prayed, O LORD, open his eyes and let him see! The LORD opened the …man’s eyes, and… he saw that the hillside around Elisha was filled with horses and chariots of fire’ 2kings 6:17
Personal revelation is key to dispelling both internal and external storms. You need to know without any shadow of doubt that Jesus is in your boat. It requires a personal revelation God wants to open your eyes because you need to have your own personal revelation amidst the storm. No other person’s revelation will work for you. Read 2 kings 6:15-17. Elisha could remain calm in the midst of a storm because he had personal revelation. Even though Elisha told the young man not to be afraid, it was not enough to dispel his fears. The Read the rest of this entry
Why Fast: Part 6
‘Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed’ Ecc.4:9.
Two Are Better Than One: God says two are better than one. This is one of the benefits of being planted in your Church family. None of us is as strong as all of us, no matter how anointed you are. Once another person’s anointing is added to yours, it increases the anointing. There is a cooperate anointing that is released when we fast as a Church. There is a cooperate dimension to grace and favour that yields increased life changing breakthroughs which perhaps individuals cannot attain on their own. ‘Go and gather together all the Read the rest of this entry
