FAITH PUTS THINGS IN PROPER SHAPE by Dr D.K. Olukoya

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Luke 8:41-56

MEMORY VERSE:

Matthew 21:22"And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

Faith is the ultimate divine force that knocks situations and circumstances into divine alignment. By faith, you can command anything that is not in your life to align with what God says about you. 

Your faith can make what does not exist to manifest. Faith is the building material with which God can create the things you pray for. Something may not be in your possession physically, but you can possess it with your eyes of faith. Faith is running towards a giant as David did. David did not bother about the size of Goliath, who was threatening the army of Israel because he believed the word of God in 1 John 4:4, which says, "Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world."

Somebody rightly said, "You get only what you have the courage to ask for." You can only ask when you are convincingly sure that it is possible for you to have it. And with that kind of conviction or assurance in the word of God, you will surely have what you ask for. It is your faith that will grab all the promises of God for you and convert them to your possession.

The enemy knows the importance of faith. That is why he fights to ensure that he destroys it. Unfortunately, the enemy has attacked the faith of many believers to the level that they no longer believe in the power of God or His word. It is also so sad to know that the enemy has attacked many people with so many problems that they no longer want to believe God.

Beloved, you must not allow yourself to get to the level where you lose your faith in God. Refuse to be cowed into unbelief and doubt by the enemy, who does not want you to raise your head in victory.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

Your faith will make you whole.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY

I command every mountain before you to become plain, in the name of Jesus 

PRAYER POINTS:

𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆

1. Every enemy of faith in my life, die, in the name of Jesus.

2. O God, arise and promote me beyond my dreams, in the name of Jesus.

3. You mountain before me, I command you to become plain, in the name of Jesus.

𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆

4. I refuse to be demoted, in the name of Jesus.

5. Every spirit of fear operating in my life, die, in the name of Jesus.

6. Father Lord, in Your mercy, help my unbelief, in the name of Jesus.

7. I recover all that fear and unbelief have stolen from my life, in the name of Jesus.

A PROPHET'S BLESSING by Dr D.K Olukoya

A PROPHET'S BLESSING by Dr D.K Olukoya

FIRE SCRIPTURE: 2 Kings 4:8-17

MEMORY VERSE:

2 Chronicles 20:20b

"Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

Many people have missed out and many are missing out on the blessings they ought to derive from great agents of heaven called prophets. Especially in the Old Testament, prophets of God were used to fulfil God's glorious purposes in the lives of individuals (widow of Zarephath, Naaman), families (woman of Shunem), wife of the late son of the prophet, land and city (Jericho), nations (Israel, Samaria, etc). The Bible says, "And by a prophet the LORD brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a prophet was he preserved" (Hosea 12:13). Furthermore, to buttress the importance of the prophet in God's agenda, the Bible says, "Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper" (2 Chronicles 20:20b).

Prophets are God's oracles and carriers of His power and authority. They are anointed and serve as His change agents. They hear from God and reveal the mind of God to people. Prophet Moses led Israel out of Egypt through divine and dramatic deliverance. Also, by Prophet Joshua, God led Israel into the Promised Land.

The Shunamite woman did not know that God brought Elisha her way to use him as her destiny helper. She decided to follow instinct. She provided him a room and a bed to sleep, meals and everything that would make the man of God comfortable. What did she get in return? Prophet Elisha spoke into her life and the long-standing problem of barrenness bowed out. She became a proud mother of a baby boy.

King Hezekiah had just received a threat and disturbing letter from Sennacherib, the Syrian war general. He had seen the army and was disturbed. He contacted Prophet Isaiah who assured him that God purposes to disgrace Sennacherib. In the end, God's intervention birthed Sennacherib's death. He was killed by one of his sons in the house of his god (Isaiah 37:21-38).

Beloved, who is your prophet? Do you treat him or her with honour? Do you believe him or her? Those who fail to believe and honour their prophets often stay in the wilderness for long and end up unfulfilled. That will not be your portion, in the name of Jesus.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

Give honour to whom it is due: God and His prophets.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY

I DECREE THAT THE BLESSINGS OF GOD'S PROPHET WILL BE YOURS, HENCEFORTH, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

PRAYER POINTS:

MORNING

1. O Lord, lead me to Your ordained prophet for me, in the name of Jesus.

2. Powers of my father’s house pushing me into the hands of false prophets, scatter, in the name of Jesus.

3. I receive the prophet's blessing in the name of the Lord, in Jesus' name.

EVENING

4. Every bitterness in my heart towards the prophet of God given to me, be purged out by fire, in the name of Jesus.

5. Mercy of God, deliver me from every negative comment I have made against God's prophet that is fighting me, in the name of Jesus.

6. Holy Spirit, teach me how to honour Your servants around me, in the name of Jesus.

7. O God, arise and honour every prophecy that has come to me by Your ordained prophets, in the name of Jesus.

RESOLVING CONFLICTS (III) by Dr D.K. Olukoya

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Philemon 1

MEMORY VERSE:

Matthew 5:23-24 "Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

Having explained so much on how to manage our relationships with little or no grudges against one another as Christians, we need to go on to steps for peaceful resolution of conflicts.

The whole exercise revolves around the parties involved, who should start with a willingness to let peace reign. There is a possibility of shifting blames, finding faults and making excuses which could constitute hindrances to smooth conflict resolution. This is where the forgiving spirit comes to play first and foremost. You should take the matter to God in prayer so that you will be divinely guided into handling the resolution.

A forgiving heart is the heart that come to terms with God first over a matter. This prepares the offended for an opportunity to consider a dialogue and eventually make peace with the offender. There is no way you can entertain a discussion with someone with whom you have an axe to grind, except your heart is prepared to accommodate the offender and humbly accept and take responsibility for your own faults. Keep communication lines open, entertain a round-table talk if necessary, avoid emotionally charged words and actions, and put your emotions under strict control.

According to scriptures earlier read, first seek audience with the other party but if this fails, you can proceed to involve possibly an older fellow or a closer friend; at times a group of brethren, depending on the seriousness of the matter. This is not to expose or ridicule the other party but to seek other people's views for a better understanding. Furthermore, avoid seeking your own interests above the other person's (Philippians 2:1-5).

Put away every negative thought and imagination. Avoid bitterness and allow all wounds to receive healing by the power of God. Be ready for a healthy reconciliation and be restored. Even where this may not be possible for any reason, ensure that your conscience is clean and with a pure heart, you receive the other person.

Remember that God forgave us and we should not harbour bitterness so that our prayers would be answered. One last but important thing to note is that refusal to forgive and settle disputes amicably will put you into emotional prison. Please forgive and let go all hurts and you will begin to enjoy the fullness of God's promises for His beloved.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

The most effective way to resolving conflicts is through dialogue. Healthy and effective communication heals.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:

TODAY, THE VERY GOD OF PEACE SHALL ENVELOP YOUR ENTIRE BEING AS YOU RESOLVE ALL PENDING CONFLICTS, IN THE NAME OF JESUS

PRAYER POINTS

𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆

1. Lord Jesus, release Your healing power upon my hurting mind, in the name of Jesus.

RESOLVING CONFLICTS (II) by Dr D.K. Olukoya

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Ephesians 4:25-32

MEMORY VERSE:

Romans 12:18 "If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

The Bible deals explicitly with resolution of conflicts. From the beginning to the end, you find the message of peace with God and peace with fellow men as stated in 1 John 4:20. It is by doing this that we maintain unity in the Church as children of God, and peace in our relationships, in the family, neighbourhood or workplace.

The Bible shows us the maturity and godliness in Abraham when there was a dispute between his herdsmen and Lot's in Genesis 13:5-13. Rather than argue or quarrel, he calmly asked Lot to make a choice between the available places. Lot's choice was Sodom and Gomorrah, which he chose out of sight. However, the place he left for Abraham turned out to be the better choice.

What about Isaac and the Philistines over the wells in Genesis 26:21-25? He gently asked his men to go and dig new wells. Surprisingly to his adversaries, Isaac became wealthier than ever imagined. Still on the Old Testament, we have the case of Joseph and his brothers. Theirs is a popular story. Joseph's brothers meant evil for Joseph but God turned it around for good.

One thing is most remarkable in these Bible stories. There was no bitterness, no anger, no rancour or hatred from these patriarchs. They had the mind of God and would not allow conflicts to last long or destroy their relationship with others. They stood for peace so much that their opponents came to make peace with them. The Lord expects the same from us.

This is not a way of sweeping matters under the carpet. Rather, you seek opportunity to discuss and agree on the way forward. This calls for effective communication between the parties involved, a reasonable level of calmness, where self is laid and each person is ready to forbear and forgive (Philippians 2:3-4).

Apostle Paul, in his epistles, kept reminding brethren of peaceful relationship at every cadre of life if truly, they want to be known as true disciples and children of God. In 1 Corinthians 6:1-6, while addressing disputes in the Corinthian church, he frowned at Christians putting up lawsuits against one another. He considered it a disgrace to heaven, especially so because saints will be judges of this world. He called everyone to reconciliation, no matter the cause of the dispute, living peacefully with one another and forgiving one another as Christ forgave us.

He didn't stop teaching others what to do. Paul, in his usual way, demonstrated a mature and disciplined Christian mind by showing examples worthy of emulation in this regard between him and Barnabas over John Mark, with whom he later reconciled.

Beloved, the truth is that if you can follow the precepts of God in managing relationships and resolving differences, you would be able to do same anywhere you are at any point in time. This is not only in the church, but also in your family and the world at large where we have been called to be the light and the salt.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

It is better to resolve conflicts than to dissolve a relationship.

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matthew 18:15-17

MEMORY VERSE:

Psalms 24:3 "Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?"

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

Conflict is common to man. As long as we relate as humans, there will surely be moments of disagreement. These differences may vary in nature and occurrence. Sometimes, it comes so lightly and gets resolved within the shortest time possible. At other times, it can get out of hand, and may take a longer time to resolve. The parties involved get hurt and find it difficult to come back to the normal level of their relationship so easily.

The Church is not immune to conflicts, neither are Christians. Rather, we are called to resolve the conflicts amicably and get reconciled and restored, if truly we are to continue in the same mind as children of God. Failure to resolve our differences may lead to some ungodly situations that will not only hurt our fellow brethren but equally cause us to offend God.

God has called us to forgive others as He has forgiven us. Refusal to forgive is not only harmful to us, but most seriously, it is a sin of rebellion and disobedience against God. Oh, you say in your mind, "If only you know how deeply I am hurt! How can I forgive someone who has betrayed and hurt me so much?" These and more are the thoughts of our hearts when we are at loggerheads with our fellow men. Many people often struggle to resolve their differences and let go. This is not the mind of Christ!

Remember, Jesus went through it all. He felt the pain of offences, betrayal  disappointment and all. He knows how we feel at such moments, but does not approve unforgiveness or unresolved conflicts. In fact, you must get your conflicts resolved to enable you come before the altar of God, if your prayers must be answered. It is a godly condition that cannot be ignored or negotiated (Matthew 5:23-24).

Amicable resolution of conflicts reveals the state of your mind and the level of your spirituality. If truly you have been born again, it should not be difficult for you to forgive others. Freely you have been forgiven your sins; freely you should forgive others and be reconciled, and love others as Christ loves us.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

Peace is not the absence of conflicts but the ability to handle conflicts in a peaceful way.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:

THE LORD SHALL SURROUND YOU GOOD AND PEACEFUL PEOPLE, IN THE NAME OF JESUS

DEVELOPING A HOLY LIFESTYLE by Dr D.K. Olukoya

FIRE SCRIPTURE: John 14:1-4

MEMORY VERSE:

2 Corinthians 7:1 `"Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

In John 14:1-4, our Fire Scripture for today, Jesus promised that He would go to the Father and prepare a mansion for us (believers). The place called heaven has no darkness, pain or sorrow. The Bible affirms that no unclean thing shall enter or be found there (Isaiah 35:8). For you to inherit the promise and the mansion that Jesus has gone to prepare, you must live a holy life.

The Bible says, "Examine yourself to know if you are still in faith" (2 Corinthians 13:5). Someone also said that an unexamined life is not worth living. Holiness is the essential condition for one to enter heaven. Are you holy? Holiness relates to your spiritual and physical lives. Your thoughts must be holy and pure. Your speech must be godly and in conformity with the Bible. Your deeds and actions must be Christlike. As our Memory Verse says, you must cleanse yourself of the filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. You must make a clean break from all forms of ungodly compromise. Do not say, "After all, I am only going to do it once. It is only today and I won't do it again." Don't let the devil deceive you. Adam and Eve fell once and they lost their dominion, inheritance as well as fellowship with God and paradise. The Bible says that we are debtors not to the flesh.

The flesh is the root cause of sin in man. That is why I have always said that the flesh must die. It is the Holy Spirit in you that will give you the grace to mortify the flesh. How can you mortify the flesh? First, you should continually resist the desires of the flesh. Refuse to lend your eyes, ears, mind and body to sin. Second, study the word of God daily, meditate on it, memorise it and let it renew your mind. The word of God has the power of sanctify your body, soul and spirit. Third, you must be in the spirit daily. Live the life of consecration, presenting your body as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, and pray without ceasing.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

Without holiness on earth, we shall never be prepared to enjoy heaven. Heaven is a holy place.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:

I DECREE THAT THE GRACE TO LIVE A LIFE OF OF HOLINESS AND END WELL WITHOUT SPOT, WRINKLE AND BLEMISH IS GIVEN TO YOU, HENCEFORTH, IN THE NAME OF JESUS

FROM PAIN TO GAIN by Dr D.K. Olukoya

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Revelation 21:4-7

MEMORY VERSE:

Revelation 21:4 "And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

Pain can be more than bodily afflictions. Pain can be felt emotionally, mentally, spiritually, medically, etc. Pain can be issues weighing you down or even sorrows and challenges that you face each day.

Beloved, we should not be discouraged when we are going through pain and think that God has forgotten us. The Bible encourages us not to be dismayed and discouraged "Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you" (1 Peter 4:12). Instead we should be hopeful, prayerful and joyful with faith that God has answered all our prayers. We should make the Bible our manual every moment and believe that God is working in our favour. We should use the time of pain to grow spiritually, and in every other area of our lives. We should not waste our time being sad and depressed; instead, we should improve ourselves and become stronger and better versions of ourselves. Beloved, it won't be easy, because the enemy will keep firing the arrows of fear and discouragement, but we must send those arrows back to sender, in the name of Jesus.

The time of gain will come; and when it does, it will be like a dream. The Bible says "When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream" (Psalms 126:1). This is because God doesn't forget His people. May the good Lord always remember us in our time of pain, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

The stretching of your faith is immediate pain that results in ultimate gain. It is in waiting that we become who we are meant to be.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:

God shall take away your pain and turn it into double gain for you, in the name of Jesus

PRAYER POINTS

DIVINE RESTORATION by DR D.K. Olukoya

FIRE SCRIPTURE Joel 2:25-32

MEMORY VERSE:

Joel 2:25 "And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

Divine restoration is when God in His mercies restores to you in multiple folds all that were taken from you. It is when God takes that which was broken, puts it together again and makes it better than it was before. It is when God takes the shattered pieces of your life, glue them together with His love, and make them stronger in the places where they were once weak. God's divine restoration is more than what humans can comprehend. It is life-changing and it lasts for generations. An example can be seen with Job in the Bible - a righteous man who lost everything in a day and was even inflicted with sores all over his body (Job 2:7). Yet, he maintained his faith in God (Job 13:15). He never listened to his wife who told him to curse God and die (Job 2:9). Even his friends castigated him and assumed he must have offended God for him to suffer such terrible things, but he kept on pushing in his faith in God. And the Lord restored to him twice of all he had lost (Job 42:12).

Divine restoration is a promise God has given to His children. This can be seen in many instances in the Bible (Jeremiah 15:19, 30:17; Ezekiel 36:11). It might look as if these promises don't exist because of all that is going on in the world, but do not be dismayed because God is with you (Isaiah 41:10); He will restore to you all that you have lost in multiple folds, in the name of Jesus. Keep confessing His words, keep praying and believing that His divine restoration will touch you, and it will, in the name of Jesus.

As a Spirit-filled child of God, you have the right to command the restoration of all that the enemy has stolen, killed and destroyed in your life. Use the power and authority that God has bestowed on you. Command dry bones in any area of your life to be revived (Ezekiel 37:6-10). Decree that your wasted years be restored (Joel 2:25-27) and tell the thief to restore seven-fold all he has stolen from you ( Proverbs 6:31).

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

Repentance is the way to restoration.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:

Your God shall completely restore to you all you have lost, in the of Jesus

FIRE SCRIPTURE Acts 16:25-31

MEMORY VERSE:

1 Corinthians 16:13 "Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

Courage is a virtue that all children of God should possess. It is the ability to do something that frightens others. It is strength in the face of pain and grief. Quite a lot of situations will definitely come your way to discourage or distract you. They may come in any facet of life. They could be related to situations that bring about dejection, depression, disappointment, despondency, hopelessness, lack of enthusiasm, despair, gloom and low spirit.

The environment and situation around us now is so full of discouragement, but you have to encourage yourself in the Lord. The devil has a mandate to ensure that the children of God do not succeed in life (Revelation 12:12). Your spouse or children could discourage you like the case of Job. The wife of Job knew that Job was a man that feared God and kept His commandment with high respect; yet in the day of adversity and want, she told him to curse God and die (Job 2:9).

Your pastor or mentor can discourage you because they are human beings. Your family members, neighbours, boss or associates may discourage you directly or indirectly. You may be going through a lot now, but bear it in mind that the devil's aim is to make sure you do not reach your goal and succeed in life. Do not be discouraged or weary; just have faith in God and believe in His words. When Jesus was faced with the devil's lies and temptations, He countered them with the truth of God's word. The spoken word of God is a powerful sword in our mouth (Hebrews 4:12) and if Jesus depended upon it to face challenges in life, you too can. Look forward to the crown waiting for you after this present realm; be courageous, be strong, and note that the Bible says, "Christ in you is the hope of glory" (Colossians 1:27).

In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

The Bible says that if you faint in the time of adversity, your strength is small (Proverbs 24:10). You must determine to forge ahead, no matter the lies the devil is bringing your way to discourage you this year. The Bible did not promise you that everything will be rosy and smooth because you gave your life to Christ, but He encouraged you to be of good cheer because He has overcome the world (John 16:33b).

Jesus did not come at the time Lazarus was sick; He did not even come when Mary and Martha were praying and expecting His divine intervention. He came when Lazarus had died for four days. He raised Lazarus from the dead instead of healing him when he was sick. He came at His own time (John 11:1-26). I pray that God will never come late in that situation you are passing through, in Jesus' name. Every good thing that is dead in your life shall come alive, in the name of Jesus.

Beloved, you need to encourage yourself and be stronger at this time more than ever before. You need to pray for divine strength from above to run the race that is set before you because there are billions of things targeted at discouraging the children of God. 2 Corinthians 4:8-10 says, "We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body." The hosts of heaven are cheering you as you continue in the journey unwavering. Don't give up because your reward is great and your crown is waiting for you. Only those that endure to the end shall be saved (Matthew 10:22; Revelation 3:12).

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

A problem is a chance for you to do better! Cross the line! For the fears you don't face become your limits!

MEMORY VERSE:

Ephesians 5:14 "Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

Beloved, as you continue in the journey of this year, it is worthy to mention that you will encounter different types of seasons and times according to Ecclesiastes 3:1-8, which makes us to understand that, to everything, there is a time and season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven. We, as humans, feel pains but we need to pray for the grace of God to be able to stand. Job 14:1-2 says, "A man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of troubles." The way you handle difficult moments will determine your success or movement to the next level, as you continue in this glorious year. If you handle it badly, it might cost you the good promises of God for your life but if you go through it with the word of God, you shall come out victorious. 2 Corinthians 4:17 says that our light affliction, which is for a moment, worketh for us eternal weight of glory. Hebrews 10:36 adds that we need patience after we have done the WILL of God for the promise to come to pass.

At the height of discouragement, you can begin to help the devil to do his work and might be taking wrong decisions. You might get to a point that you will begin to hinder God's work and promises for your life. In 1 Samuel 30:6, which is our Fire Scripture, we read that David was greatly distressed, but he encouraged himself in the Lord and he was able to pursue, overtake and recover all that were taken from him. I pray that as you continue your journey this year, you will be empowered to recover all you have lost in the past years due to discouragement, in the name of Jesus. Discouragement is a potent spiritual weapon used by satan against the children of God. It makes the work of God to be slow and sluggish; it even causes some believers to backslide.

However, there are tested and proven antidotes to discouragement. The first is reading the word of God and claiming the precious promises of our never failing God. The second is living a prayerful life. The Bible says that we should pray without ceasing. Prayer will drive away the spirit of discouragement and fill you with courage, hope and joy. Another important antidote to discouragement is giving high quality praise and worship to God regularly. Beloved, I advise you to give no place to discouragement in your life.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

Being a true child of God does not exempt you from the battles of life, but God is always with you through it.

4. O Lord, let all prevailing adverse circumstances in my life be converted to testimonies, in the name of Jesus.

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Luke 18:35-43

MEMORY VERSE:

John 8:12 "Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

 

MESSAGE:

The fifth lesson for us in this biblical event is that Bartimaeus' request was just one -- specific, direct and clear. When he got to Jesus and was asked what he wanted, Bartimaeus did not stammer. His request did not contradict his earlier cry and prayer point. He said, "That I may receive my sight." When you go to God in prayer, always make your request or prayer point specific and clear. As someone put it, "I want to buy blood tonic is not the same as when you specify the particular brand and type you want."

The sixth lesson is that Jesus only spoke and light appeared in the darkness in Bartimaeus' life. Jesus said, "Receive thy sight: thy faith hath made thee whole." The Bible affirms that the blind man immediately received his sight! The same Jesus spoke to the storm and it became still. He spoke to death and it released Lazarus. He spoke to demons and they obeyed Him. Beloved, Jesus will speak to any unpleasant situation in your life today (joblessness, financial challenge, marital delay, barrenness, business challenge, health problem, etc) and your miracle will appear, in the name of Jesus.

The seventh is that upon receiving his sight, Bartimaeus followed Christ  glorifying God. Beloved, what we do after receiving divine visitation or miracle matters to heaven. Our attitude should be like that of Bartimaeus who was full of gratitude to God. He followed Jesus and made the whole world to know the One who turned his life around. He worshiped, praised, and glorified God who turned his night to day. This attitude is essential in making our miracles permanent. It will also open the heavens for more miracles in our lives. Bartimaeus' action made all the people to also give praise to God. I pray that you will have a life-changing encounter with the Miracle Worker today and all people will glorify God for your sake, in the name of Jesus.

Beloved, the Bible says that the things that are written in the Scripture are for our learning. I encourage you to apply the important lessons drawn from Bartimaeus' life-changing encounter with Jesus to your life. Your joy will be full, in Jesus' name.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

Darkness is not only the absence of light but also the absence of God.

1 Peter 2:10 "Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

The third lesson we can learn from the life of Bartimaeus is that he was importunate. He did not give up or stop crying to Jesus when he was told to keep quiet. He was desperate and opportunity wasters could not stop him. Are you someone who easily gives up at the slightest opposition or discouragement? I advise you to turn a new leaf today. The Syrophoenician woman refused to be discouraged when Jesus said that He would not give the children's bread to dogs; neither did the disciples' actions bother her. If she had got angry, she would have missed the opportunity to get deliverance for her child. The Bible says that, when Bartimaeus was rebuked and told to hold his peace, he cried so much more! A closed mouth is a closed destiny. An English proverb says that the squeaky hinge gets the grease. Any power that wants to shut your mouth from praying shall die, in the name of Jesus.

Fourth, Bartimaeus sought mercy from Jesus. Please note that Jesus did not ask Bartimaeus how he became blind, neither did He mention what Bartimaeus or his parents might have done wrong. Jesus was mercy personified. Mercy spares you the punishment or judgement you deserve for a wrong you have done. It triumphs over judgement. God does not ignore the cry for mercy. That is why Jesus stood still, sent for Bartimaeus and restored his sight. As you cry for mercy today, Jesus, the same yesterday, today and forever, will grant you the miracle you have been praying for, in Jesus' name.

There is an important principle in the Kingdom of God, which I would like you to follow positively and earn its gains. It says that what you sow is what you will reap. Therefore, I strongly encourage you to show mercy to others and reap God's mercy abundantly. Sow love and reap love; sow generously and reap the same. I decree that the heaven of great mercy and grace will open for you, in the name of Jesus.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

Nothing paralyses a life like the attitude that things can never change. You need to remind yourself that God can change things.

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

The events and characters recorded in the Bible have useful lessons for all discerning believers. One of such events has to do with Jesus passing through Jericho and how a blind man, Bartimaeus by name, seized the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get himself a life-changing miracle. Let us examine the important lessons this amazing story teaches us.

First, Bartimaeus cried to the right person, Jesus, who could deliver him to the uttermost. Many people's faith or trust is highly misplaced. They need healing but trust in the medical experts rather than Jesus. Many trust in the power of prescriptions and drugs rather than the Great Physician. Some even trust in herbs and roots, some in voodoo and magic rather than the Balm of Gilead. While it is not wrong to seek medical treatment or use drugs prescribed by medical practitioners, you must always remember that it is God that heals. You should also ensure that you do not go to Egypt for help. Bartimaeus sought his miracle from the right source, Jesus, the Light of the whole world. Beloved, no matter the challenge you may be facing, as you read today's devotional, look only unto Jesus Christ for your miracle; present your request to Him in faith. He will answer you.

Second, Bartimaeus demonstrated strong and unwavering faith in Jesus. He believed that Jesus could restore his sight. His faith was tested. The large crowd was enough discouragement for a blind man. Bartimaeus did not for once see that as a barrier. His determination to see Jesus and get his miracle was resolute. He cried loudly and desperately enough to get Jesus' attention. He broke the barrier presented by the noise of the multitude around Jesus. His faith moved the compassionate Lord and earned him his miracle. Dearly beloved, have faith in God!

No matter what your challenges may be in this must trying period in human history, let the word of God be your anchor. It never fails. Hold on to Christ's word of comfort in John 14:1, "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me." Be anxious for nothing; cast your burden upon the One who cares for you.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

If we see only the problems, we will be defeated.

PROVE YOUR LOVE FOR GOD BY DR D.K. OLUKOYA

PROVE YOUR LOVE FOR GOD BY DR D.K. OLUKOYA

FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1 Corinthians 13:1-13

MEMORY VERSE:

John 15:9"As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

As a believer, our love for God should not be a mere lip service or untrue but genuine, unfeigned and profound. Also, God expects us to prove our love by requiting and showing it to Him and others. As He has amply and convincingly proved His love to us, He wants us to do the same to Him and others. You can do this in the following ways:

First, you should demonstrate unreserved obedience to His word. In John 14:15, Jesus said, "If ye love me, keep my commandment." Obedience to God in a prompt, unquestioning and complete way is the greatest proof of your love to Him. Obey God, whether it is convenient or not. Abraham proved his love by obeying God on the issue of Isaac. God rewarded him handsomely for it.

Another way to prove your love for Christ is to feed His flock. Jesus said to Peter, "Lovest thou Me?" Peter answered, "Thou knowest, Master." Jesus told him, "Feed my flock." How should you feed the flock of Jesus? The Bible says that man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Therefore, teaching and preaching the word of God to others and making them grow spiritually is a great way to demonstrate your love for the Lord. Next to spiritual feeding is the physical one. Jesus fed 5,000 men with five loaves of bread and two fishes. Dearly beloved, you should use your material resources to meet the physical needs of others (food, accommodation, clothing, etc). When you grant them this favour, the Lord said He is the One you have bestowed the favour upon.

Finally, you can prove God's love to Him and others by doing what God loves. The heartbeat of the Almighty is soul-winning. Seek out the lost, unreached and unloved souls and win them for Christ. Do not stop winning souls for Christ; disciple them for Him also. Turn them to faithful followers and ambassadors for the Kingdom. When you prove your love successfully, God will reward you handsomely.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

Love bears all things, believes all things, hope and endures all things.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:

I PROPHESY THAT HENCEFORTH THE LORD WILL MAKE YOU AN APOSTLE OF HIS LOVE, IN THE NAME OF JESUS

PRAYER POINTS:

3. Blood of Jesus, purge my spirit, soul and body of every hatred, bitterness and unforgiveness, in the name of Jesus.

𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆

4. Every battle programmed to steal the love of God from my heart, expire, in the name of Jesus.

5. Anointing for effective soul winning, rest upon me, in the name of Jesus.

6. O God, let my life bring You joy, in the name of Jesus.

7. Fire quenchers, glory killers and anointing polluters of my father’s house, slowing down the progress of my ministry, die, in the name of Jesus.

PRAYING IN TONGUES by Dr D.K. Olukoya

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Acts 2:3-4

MEMORY VERSE:

Jude 1:20 "But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost."

PRAISE AND WORSHIP

MESSAGE:

Praying in tongues was first introduced to us (believers) in the famous Acts 2 "And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance" (Acts 2:3-4).

Praying in tongues is the foundation for a victorious Christian life. It is the spiritual armour God gave believers and is one of the communicating languages in the spirit realm (Mark 16:17). Most believers do not know the potency of praying in tongues and so they tend to misuse or abuse it.

Praying in tongues is one of the mighty works of God because in Mark 4:11, Jesus said, "Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the Kingdom." Praying in tongues is divine. When you pray in tongues, it means you have been licensed to communicate in the language of the Spirit. The early apostles were muted and full of fears in one place but when the Holy Ghost came upon them, their tongues were loosed, fear departed and they began to speak in tongues so that the world could hear their voice. The Holy Ghost came to release your voice so that your family, community and generation can hear your voice. The people of God are voice carriers because we are born of the Spirit: as such, you must be a voice wherever you go. You cannot be praying in tongues and your voice will not be heard.

When you pray in heavenly tongues, it shows that you are in agreement with the Holy Ghost. Your spirit comes in direct contact with God, who is a Spirit because we are talking to Him by divine supernatural means. When you pray in tongues, you are fortifying your inner man. By so doing, your inner man is able to war against the devil victoriously. Praying in tongues helps you to get access to the greater realms of revelation and also the mystery of God (1 Corinthians 14:2). What insecticide does to mosquitoes is the same thing that praying in tongues does to the forces of darkness, even much more.

When you are addicted to praying in tongues, you will enjoy angelic visitations and darkness will be far from you. As you begin to effectively use the weapon of praying in tongues, you shall experience the move of God's power in a new way.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:

Build up yourself by praying in tongues.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:

THOSE WHO MUST HEAR YOUR VOICE SHALL HEAR YOUR VOICE. YOU SHALL NOT LIVE A LIFE OF IRRELEVANCE, IN THE NAME OF JESUS

MESSAGE:

Knowledge is power, and its rightful application is wisdom. God is calling us to arise from our spiritual sleep and apathy into divine vibrancy. Now that you know the secrets of the enemy, you can no longer continue in ignorance or nonchalance, neither can you become his evil dustbin. You can only overcome and be victorious over the enemy, when you unmask, confront, conquer and recover your territory from him.

Are you constantly fed, molested, robbed, attacked or afflicted in any way in your dreams by known and unknown entities? Do you engage in slavery activities in the dream? What is usually your dream pattern?

Do you always remember your dreams or not? Are you a spiritual bat who does not remember his dreams at all? These and more are the questions you should ask yourself. Don't take your dream for granted.

Do everything possible to recall your dreams whenever you wake up. What is the message? Is it good or bad? When it is good, thank God and ask for grace to do whatever is required of you. But when it is bad, refuse to glide over it or compromise. Take immediate action! What do you do?

Pray to cancel the consequences of any satanic dream. Nullify any evil indication, intention or plan of such dreams. Pray to send all intended evil back to senders, in the name of Jesus. Pray a recovery prayer to pursue, overtake and recover whatever the enemy has stolen from you. Bring spiritual thieves into the courtroom of God and let them receive instant judgement.

Do not neglect feeding your spirit man with the word of God and constantly purge yourself of anything that can serve as an evil ladder to the enemy in your life. Barricade your life continually with the blood of Jesus and the fire of the Holy Ghost. Pray that your dream life becomes too hot for the enemy to operate within, and pray always for victory against every satanic activity, invasion or attack in the dream.

Victory over satanic dreams marks the beginning of total victory in other areas of your life.
