Be Free!
“And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself. And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity” Luke 13:10-11 [KJV]
The woman could not lift herself because of a spirit of infirmity and the scripture says satan bound her. Today you will be loosed and you will loosen things because God says whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in the heaven. So in anyway satan has bound you and you can in no way raise yourself up, in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, be loosed! It could be spiritually; some people are bound Read the rest of this entry
Tear It Down!
“He removed the pagan shrines, smashed the sacred pillars, and cut down the Asherah poles. He broke up the bronze serpent that Moses had made, because the people of Israel had been offering sacrifices to it. The bronze serpent was called Nehushtan” 2 Kings 18:4
Please read Numbers 21:4-9, this was a time when the children of Israel were going through a challenging time and they sinned against God. As a result God sent serpents to bite them causing a lot of deaths in the camp. They realized their mistake and cried out for mercy. And God told Moses to raise up a bronze serpent called Read the rest of this entry
You Will Prevail!
“The Lord is with me, so I will not be afraid. No one on earth can do anything to harm me. The Lord is my helper. I will see my enemies defeated” Ps.118:6-7 [ERV]
Take responsibility for your life. What happens when we raise a generation that is not strong because they are not accustomed to pain? I have not proven it but I can tell you the greater you are as a person or as a leader is directly proportional to your capacity for pain. The greater you become as a leader is directly proportional for your Read the rest of this entry
Prerequisite
“Year after year it was the same—Peninnah would taunt Hannah as they went to the Tabernacle. Each time, Hannah would be reduced to tears and would not even eat” 1Sam.1:7
Samuel was a child that came from holding God’s hand and asking of the Lord. In fact Samuel is a product of help from heaven. Hannah had to endure the pain of not having children for several years. For some of us, it is not the pain of not having physical children but we are going through a painful situation that has lingered for Read the rest of this entry
God’s Elect!
“You didn’t choose me. I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce lasting fruit…” Jn.15:16
All the prayer, worship, devotion, and fellowship are so that you and I can bear fruit. We have a part to play with God to bring about this fruit. God wants to cooperate with us to bring about life change in other people. Paul said, “I planted the seed. Apollos watered it, but it was God who made it grow” 1 Cor.3:6. God will make your seed grow, in the mighty name of Jesus! We are born to reproduce. Growth in Christ Read the rest of this entry
Line Upon Line
“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
“He tells us everything over and over— one line at a time, one line at a time, a little here, and a little there!” If God, the Maker of the heavens and the earth takes time out to tell you everything over and over, don’t you think you need to pay attention to what He is saying? Little beginnings can be equated to the place of waiting perhaps for the next big thing or for the doors to open unto you. God has placed you close to married people so that He can birth a desire Read the rest of this entry
Take Note!
“Seest thou a man diligent in his business? He shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men” Prov.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 the task of cutting the wood is tied to sharpening the blade of the axe. The success or failure of this task is the resultant effect of the decisions you make here after. Incompetence would mean knowing the blade needs to be sharpened but refusing to sharpen it or waiting Read the rest of this entry
Seed Of Excellence
“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 did not start when he interpreted the writings on the wall, Read the rest of this entry
The David Way
“The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety” Ps.18:2
God does not just want to be the Alpha and Omega to you, He desires to be your Alpha and Omega. It is impossible to have God to yourself alone but you can choose to personalize your every communication with Him. Personalize His Word because guess what? He spoke His Word directly to you. Personalize Read the rest of this entry
Daily Bread
“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” John15:5
How will you treat a relationship that is your life? How will you handle a relationship that your life, existence, and eternity depends on? Imagine a young man who has lived in abject poverty all his life gets to meet the president. And the president says to him, one day in the coming week, between Read the rest of this entry
