Enduring Submission
‘Relish life with the spouse you love each and every day of your precarious life. Each day is God’s gift. It’s all you get in exchange for the hard work of staying alive. Make the most of each one!’ Ecc.9:9 [MSG]
Love is a bold line you can draw through the life of Jesus Christ. The bold line of love is visible still at His death and resurrection. Jesus is all about Love. It was not the nails that kept Jesus on the cross, it was love. God expects us to walk in this same depth of love. Napoleon said “I know men and I tell you that Jesus Christ is no mere man. Between Him and every Read the rest of this entry
Invoking God’s Blessings II
‘Anyone who believes in me may come and drink! For the Scriptures declare, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart’ John 7:38
‘Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing’ John 15:5. And we know that the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Christ. Yet there are Christians today who choose to stay without the Holy Spirit. They do not want to heal the sick or prophesy. They do not thirst for the anointing and Read the rest of this entry
He Teaches Us
‘But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—He will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you’ John 14:26
The Holy Spirit is the greatest teacher. He is able to teach us everything we do not know. Life is filled with mysteries and every day births new questions. The Spirit of Christ is the only one capable of answering those questions. The greatest teacher is the Holy Spirit. Yet in order to learn from Him, you have to engage Him. ‘But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I Read the rest of this entry
Righteousness, Peace and Joy
‘For the Kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit’. Rom.14:17
Examine your life, is yours a reflection of the Kingdom? Are you living righteously, are you experiencing peace and is there joy in your life, home and career? If not, then the Kingdom of God has not been fully established in your life. Paul says, ‘the Kingdom of God is not eating and drinking but righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit’. This means the Kingdom of Read the rest of this entry
Preaching and Pressing!
The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the Kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it. Luke.16:16 [KJV]
There is a preaching of the Kingdom and there is a pressing into the Kingdom; before there can be a reality of the Kingdom. Check every sphere of your life [education, business, health, or marriage] to be sure the Kingdom of God is being revealed. For you to see the manifestation of the Kingdom of God there has to be a preaching. You need to hear a Word, for prosperity and health, and then there has to be a pressing. A preaching of and a pressing into the Kingdom. Many times we hear the Kingdom preached to us over and over again but we are waiting for God to manifest it. At other times we conclude that we have faults and that is why we are not getting the benefits of the Kingdom. The missing link is that you are not pressing into it; today you will press into your inheritance. Preach it, Press in and Take it by Force. ‘And from the time of John the Baptist until now, the Kingdom of God suffereth violence, and the violence take it by force’ [Matt.11:12]. You have to violently reclaim your health, finances, marriage, destiny and your inheritance. A lady had labored with her husband for years but as soon as he entered into wealth, his mother introduced a strange woman. The lady’s first response was in the flesh which resulted in her accepting the intrusion. Before long, she had been stripped of all her privileges as his wife. One day, the word came back to her ‘the violent take it by force’ and she began to speak violently to the walls, the water, and everything in her house to eject the strange woman. The strange woman packed her bags and ran. You have heard the Word, don’t try to reason it out – Take It By Force. You know it is God, plus you see and know what God wants to release to you. God has put it in your heart, it has come as a prophesy, and you have heard it preached. It is time to press into it and take it by force.
Prayer: Lord, I have heard Your Word, I receive and press into Your Word concerning my health, marriage, finances, children and my Job. I take my inheritance by Force in Jesus Name.
And God Said: Destiny Provoking Name Change
‘Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee… And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be’. Gen 17:5 &15.
God said and God is still saying destiny provoking name change. For some people, God is going to give you a new name because the one you have currently is destiny limiting. Many times people are limited by the names they are carrying and the only way to break free is a name change from the One who knows tomorrow. God had to change Abraham’s name from Abram [high, Read the rest of this entry
And God Said: Weddings
And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. Gen.2:18
God said and God is still saying weddings. ‘Then the Lord God said, it is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him’ [Gen.2:18 NLT]. In the New Testament, male and female are one in Christ; it is not good for the man or woman to be alone. God is saying that He will make you a help meet suitable for you. This is God’s promise; believe it and it shall come to pass in your life as it did for Adam. God decided to do this for Adam Read the rest of this entry
And God Said: Fruitfulness
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Gen.1:28
God said and is still saying fruitfulness. Every one trusting God for the fruit of the womb let your rejoicing start today because God has already spoken concerning your situation. Believe His Word today and by this time next year, you will be singing a different song. If it were me that said these words, then I give you full rights to question its authenticity. However, ‘…be fruitful, and Read the rest of this entry
Spiritual Head
The man who finds a wife finds a treasure, and he receives favor from the Lord. Prov.18:22
The roles of the husband and wife in the family are distinct; different but complementary. This is how God intended for it to be. He gave Adam the responsibility of tending to the garden and Eve the responsibility of helping. A number of couples confuse the roles and this brings about disunity and Read the rest of this entry
Family Harmony
Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one mind and purpose. Phil.2:2
God calls teams in every family; between the couple, between siblings and the entire family. The term harmony derives from the Greek ἁρμονία (harmonía), meaning ‘joint, agreement, concord’, from the verb ἁρμόζω (harmozo), ‘to fit together, to join’. The dictionary definition of harmony means ‘a pleasing combination of elements in a whole’. For a family to experience harmony, all of the parts must be working together as a whole. It is only in this agreeable state Read the rest of this entry
