‘…For the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children. I tell you the truth, anyone who doesn’t receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it’. Luke18:16b-17
Some people want to enter into the Kingdom and the abundance of God but are ‘too big’ to meet the requirements. Jesus says whoever wants to enter the Kingdom of God must come as a little child. In other words, entering the Kingdom means shredding every trace of pride, self-righteousness, self-sufficiency etc. For the Kingdom of God to manifest in your finances, Read the rest of this entry
Spoken Word
Again He said to me, Prophesy to these bones and say to them, O you dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. Ezekiel 37:4[AMP]
The spoken Word of God is very powerful. Jesus when He was teaching the disciples to pray said to them when you want to pray, ‘say’.

You have to surround yourself with the spoken Word of God, make a conscious effort to ensure that you are constantly hearing the spoken Word Read the rest of this entry

I urge you …to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority…This is good and pleases God our Savior 1Tim2:1-3 [NLT]
God admonishes us to dedicate time to praying for other people’s needs besides our own. From the scripture above it is clear that God considers this an act of worship and it pleases Him. A lot of people do not know that when you devote time to praying for other people, you are actually praying for yourself. Read the rest of this entry
Cornerstones of Prayer
Never stop praying. 1 Thes.5:17 [NLT]
Prayer is talking to God the Father, in the name of God the Son and by the power of God the Holy Spirit. To attain excellence in prayer whether as an intercessor or a child of God, you must be competent, sacrificial and devoted.
Competence: In Matthew 6, Jesus outlines what you should do and not do Read the rest of this entry
