YOU'RE COMING BACK

“...and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.”
(Ezekiel 37: 10)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

When the hand of the Lord brought Ezekiel to the valley, it was full of bones; but eventually, the dry bones came back to life. When a human body is reduced to bones, there is no hope; the case is beyond redemption. No human discussion can bring a dry bone back to life, but in our Focal Scripture, the dry bones came back to life. They were finished, but God brought them back to life.

Friend, hear God’s prophetic word: you’re coming back. You are coming out of the graves men pushed you into; you are coming out of every health challenge that has reduced you; you are coming out of every hopeless situation that has caused men to mock you.

You are coming out of every destiny sabotage that happened to you; you are coming out of every challenge that has reduced you to nothing; you are coming out of every setback that has pushed you down.

The dry bones may have been forgotten, their case may have been closed, but God brought them back. It doesn’t matter if men have forgotten you. Your case may have been closed, but God says, you are coming back. Men may have written you off, but you are coming back.

Those who murdered the men in the valley of dry bones may have done their worst; but at God's time, He raised the men back to life. Relax, God is on the way; He will raise you in places where you were buried.

Even if people have done their worst, you will bounce back; God will bring the miracles of restoration with compensation.

Micah 7 vs. 8 says: “Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me.”

Prayer : Lord, raise me from places where I was buried; I’m coming back, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Enjoy A Fantastic Thursday.

TRANSFORMATION PATHWAY

“Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable... he was also a mighty man in valour, but he was a leper.”
(2 Kings 5: 1)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

Our Focal Scripture tells the tale of Naaman, captain of the host of Syria. Naaman was great and honourable, he was important to his master, but he was afflicted by leprosy. Leprosy was not the form that God originally gave to man; it was a deformity; so Naaman lived with a deformity.

Naaman’s miracle began when he was referred to Elisha by the Hebrew maid. He got information that triggered his departure from deformity. Naaman washed in river Jordan, he conformed to Elisha's instruction, and was healed. The information he got and conformed to led to his transformation.

Friend, your life may appear stuck in deformities and anomalies that God did not plant in you, but you will be on your path to recovery and transformation if you conform to the right information. The bridge between your deformity and transformation lies in the information you are yet to act on. Your story may have begun on a note of deformity, but if you find and conform to the right information like Naaman, there will be transformation.

For every deformity in your character, and every stagnation in your career and business, find scriptural principles that can facilitate your transformation and conform to it. For everything in your life that you don’t want to see anymore, find new information that can move you out of it.

Naaman’s transformation came by the finger of God, but he was first informed, and he conformed to the information he got before he experienced transformation. Walk the transformation pathway; if it worked for Naaman, it will work for you.

Prayer : Lord, help me to discover and conform to information that will transform me, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Enjoy A Fabulous Friday.
Re: How To Conquer Barrenness/ Poverty Spiritually & Physically by blessedbeads(f): 3:32pm On Oct 16, 2015
There were so many testimonies in tabernacle yesterday as the God of Elijah was attending to people one after the other ...
After the service the servant of God instructed some people to do Rpp ,while some feet washing /prayer walk,after that every one line up in a single file for God to attend to them..
Water was bless and put in every ones hand and the servant of God prayed to God to start attending to his children one after the other ...

A lady that God has delivered before in cct from spirit husband ,started shouting as the demon is back again and he was saying I told u I will come back again ,that I won't let her go because she is mine...
The servant of God ask the demon the door that was open that made him to come back ,he said because she don't pray ,she don't go to church so why won't he return to the body ...
He also said she was suppose to go some were next week but no money to go there ,that her traveling papers r ready ,visa is ready but no passport ..
That she will marry a very rich man but she won't give birth ,that dey should ask her if she is not dating big big guys but no one will help her instead they will just dump her ...that she will be struggling but no result ,that the parents don't have money to eat or pay their children school fees...and so many things ,after he has said so many things the servant of God told the most high God to let his will be done and let the daughter of Abraham receive grace ...
So she can go and do feet washing again to separate herself from any powers holding her down..

Another lady case file was also open ,as the demon inside her was a white demon from a very big sea in a foreign land,that she has been given to him before she was born ..he also said she belong to him that no one can take her from him..
He also said that he is a king and that she is his queen ,she is the umbrella of the house but he has destroy the umbrella so that she won't help any one in the family.
That she was not suppose to be in this country now maybe in uk or usa ,that she won't marry or have any relationship ,that if she do he will kill the guy .
He also said she don't have a mother on this earth ,so the servant of God ask him who is the woman that both of them came together ,the demon said he don't know her because he has put the spirit of hatred between the two of them and that he want to wipe out the whole family very soon ,so he can take his bride back...
After evrything the servant of God ask his father to allow his will be done and let the daughter of Abraham receive grace ,to do feet washing also...

Another lady that her case file was open last week and the demon was caged ,it was the father that came yesterday that the servant of God should release his son ,and that the lady glory is too big and shining so he won't allow her to go ,because she has been dedicated to them in her grand father house...
That she is their daughter ,that he will kill her very soon ...
So the servant of God ask him about her job, and key to her car ..he answered that all her property has been buried in the grand mother grave ,that he won't return anyone..
Later he kept quite and refuse to talk ,that except the creator of the whole universe comes before he will say anything again,that was how the servant of God went on his knees and start singing( I have no power of my own 2x, God of Elijah I look upon u help me I have no power of my own..
Come and see shouting in the tabernacle as all the demons were shouting don't sing again ,don't call that name again ,shut up shut up...
Then all the three demons started saying different things that dey all work together in the spirir realm ,one said he is from the land and air ,another said he is from the sea ..
And that all first daughters are for them and the thing that kept me wondering in evry thing dey were saying is that all this ladies don't know them self ,one is yoruba ,the other two r cousins and all of them are first daughters of their parents ...

Another guy God attended to again and every thing that was taken from him was fully restored back to him yesterday..
The demon responsible for his progress was summon to the tabernacle and he was saying he shd be left like that ,that he don't need to be rich ,but after the servant of God commanded the demon to return all that he has taken from him since he has done his deliverance...
The demon was trying to play planks in the tabernacle,that was how the spirit of angel enter into one of the workers that was commanding the demon to return back his glory ,his devine connection,keys to his breakthru ,his blessings was restore back to him ....

Another girl that her case file has been open since last week ,the demon said he won't return her glory .
That if her glory was restore she will become a medical doctor in the future and he don't want her to go to school ..the demon said she will spend many years in secondary school until she is 20yrs,that he want her to waste all her years ,by the grace of God once they all do renunciation on thursday the God of Elijah will do that which only him alone can do.....
Father than you Lord for all this revelations and testimonies ,to you alone be all the Glory....WHo DID THIS? Jesus

AWAY FROM DEFORMITY

“Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable ...he was also a mighty man in valour, but he was a leper.”
(2 Kings 5: 1)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

Naaman was a mighty man in his days; he was important to his master; he was captain of the Syrian army. Naaman made remarkable progress in his career as a soldier, he had risen up the hierarchy in the military, but there was one blemish on his awesome credentials: he was a leper.

In Old Testament times, leprosy was synonymous with uncleanness. Naaman made progress but lived with uncleanness; he was a shining star, but there was a deformity and uncleanness in him that took the shine off his spectacular successes. He was mighty, but yet deformed.

Friend, God’s plan is not for your successes to exist side by side with deformity and uncleanness. God may have allowed you to become a success in your field of endeavour, but He won’t be impressed if you lead a life of sin and immorality.

Your business, career, finances, etc may have become shining examples of success, but it is no excuse for sinful ways and wrong attitudes in you. The progress you have achieved is no licence to live in deformity and uncleanness.

Naaman may have been successful despite leprosy, but the leprosy in him was a dent. Any imperfection in you is a subtraction from the success God has given you. If Naaman had remained a leper, his leprosy would have taken a toll on him, and he may not have remained a successful soldier.

Your successes and steady rise to fame and prominence is not an endorsement of your deformity. Never mistake your consistent advancement in life as an endorsement of your bad habit. Ask God to remove every uncleanness and deformity in you.

Prayer: Lord, I discard every uncleanness and deformity in me; my success will not exist with sin, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Enjoy A Restful Saturday.

GO FOR KNOWLEDGE

“Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable ...he was also a mighty man in valour, but he was a leper.” (2 Kings 5: 1)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

Before Naaman was healed of his leprosy, the Hebrew maid in his home advised him to visit Elisha. The Hebrew maid gave him insight into the possibility of healing; she told him who to meet to get healed. Naaman’s recovery began with the knowledge he got from the Hebrew maid.

Friend, what is your level of knowledge? What do you know about God? What do you know about your career/business/ministry? What information and knowledge do you have about your operating environment? What knowledge have you acquired to help you advance to the next level? What knowledge are you feeding yourself with?

God says, grow your knowledge base. Strive to learn new things; learn new ways of doing things in your career/business; learn new ways of getting the right results without doing anything wrong; learn new, efficient ways of getting your work done; learn new things in other people’s fields; gain new knowledge about the things you want to achieve for yourself in life. By all means possible, never let a day pass without learning something new.

Knowledge linked Naaman to his healing and pushed him to the next level. The difference between where you are now and where you will eventually arrive at, is knowledge. If you know nothing, you will be nothing. If you hate knowledge, you might as well be content with your ‘leprosy’.

In Psalm 119 vs. 66, the psalmist prays thus: “Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments”. Ask God for grace to increase in knowledge; ask God to show you the new knowledge that will increase and prosper you.

Prayer : Lord, open my eyes to strategic knowledge that will improve and increase me, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Enjoy A Super Sunday.

POSITIVE KNOWLEDGE

“Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable...he was also a mighty man in valour, but he was a leper.” (2 Kings 5: 1)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

Naaman was not an Israelite; he belonged to an ungodly nation that had a history of troubling Israel. He neither shared a relationship with Prophet Elisha, nor had a habit of consulting the Prophet on any matter.

Eventually, Naaman met Elisha when he got new information and knowledge from the Hebrew maid. New knowledge pushed Naaman to Elisha and he got healed. Naaman was fed with new knowledge, and he soon began to conform to the knowledge he got. The knowledge he got pushed him into a certain level of conformity.

Friend, be careful about the knowledge you feed yourself with. There is a tendency for you to become more of whatever knowledge you feed yourself with. If you feed yourself with positive knowledge, you will become more positive; if you feed yourself with negative knowledge, you will become more negative in all your ways.

If you feed more and more on God’s word, you will become more and more like God; if you feed yourself with knowledge that sets the stage for sin, be careful, you may be trapped in the cycle of sin. If you feed your mind with gossip, lustful and hateful thoughts, pornography, etc, don’t be surprised when you eventually manifest what you fed yourself with.

Instead of gaining negative knowledge, go for positive knowledge. Go for knowledge that will make you better without making you worse; go for knowledge that will edify you; go for knowledge that will cause your path to shine brighter and brighter. Go for positive knowledge.

Job 28 vs. 28 says: “...Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.”

Prayer : Lord, give me wisdom to seek positive knowledge, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Enjoy A Fruitful Monday.

GO FOR CHANGE

“Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable...he was also a mighty man in valour, but he was a leper.” (2 Kings 5: 1)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

Naaman’s leprosy didn't disappear by wishful thinking; Naaman was healed when he took a shot at his healing; his story changed when he met Prophet Elisha. Naaman was a Syrian; Elisha was based in Israel. Naaman crossed the borders of his nation and went to another nation in search of healing; he moved towards his desire.

Friend, it’s not enough to have positive desires; God says, walk and work towards the desires of your heart. Things may not change on their own; play your part to make things change. Miracles may not happen on their own; lay a foundation with prayers, confession of God’s word, seed sowing, consecration, dedication, etc before the miracles come. Aim at your target, and move towards it.

Work towards the change and improvements you want to see in your home, marriage, relationships, career, business, character, etc; take strategic steps that will make your dreams a reality; step out of the comfort zone of wishful thinking and move to places that hold the resources you need. Whatever you need to become, work towards it and take your best shot at it.

Namman’s efforts were not fruitless; he played his part by seeking out Elisha, Elisha played his part by giving a prophecy, while Naaman completed the cycle by obeying Elisha. The result was an amazing miracle. Complete the cycle that will bring your next results.

Arise, step out in faith, run towards your goal, aim and move towards your target, contribute any success ingredient that is yours to contribute, and if Jehovah is involved, He will play His part to bring your success and results.

Prayer : Lord, I choose to play my part to make my results a reality, in Jesus’ name!
Enjoy A Splendid Thursday.

22nd OCTOBER 2015 “ OH GOD REMEMBER ME ” - Part 4


Memory verse: Nehemiah 13 v 14 - Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and wipe not out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my God, and for the offices thereof.

When God remembers a man, there is always a visitation from God and whenever God visits, there is always a testimony.

It doesn’t matter how long the situation might be, a day of visitation from God can settle every long lived problem in a man’s life.

The man at the Pool of Bethesda was there for 38years without solution but when God remembered him, Jesus showed up at the pool and his story changed for good.

For years, Hannah had been going to Shiloh without visitation but after her prayer of vow in I Sam 1 V 11- And she vowed a vow, and said, O LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head. God remembered her and her story changed from a barren woman to a fruitful woman.

God is still in the business of remembering his children, God remembered Abraham, he remembered Sarah, He remembered Jabez, he remembered Joseph, he will remember you today, no matter what the enemies had said about your destiny.

What matters is not the matter on ground, but what the God of Elijah says about the matter and the one that the matter concerns.

If God decides to remember any man, whatever any other person is saying, becomes noise making.

This month of October will not pass you, you will be remembered by the God of Elijah and a his visitation will bring forth an uncommon testimony in your life, in Jesus name.

Scriptural case study: 1. - John 5 V 1- 9- The story of the man at the pool of Bethseda

THINGS TO NOTE FROM THE STORY OF THE MAN AT THE POOL OF BETHESDA
1. He was at his place of visitation- 1John 5 v 2- Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
2. His hope on man failed him-1John 5 v 7-The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me
3. He never gave up- 1 John 5 V 5 -And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
4. God remembered him and sent Jesus to help him- 1 John 5 V 6- When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
5. He testified about the good works of Jesus - John 5 V- 11 He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.

Prayer point s
1.Father, I thank you for your mercy upon my life and my family, in Jesus name.
2. Father. Please, give me the grace to obey you the rest of my life in Jesus name.
3. Father, please, give me the grace to locate my place of visitation, in Jesus name.

Prayer 2
1. Oh God of Elijah, please, let my destiny helpers remember me, IJN
2. Ever yoke of bareness, marital delay, poverty, promise and fail, in my life, be broken in the name of Jesus Christ.
3. Every arrow of sickness / affliction targeted at me, return back to sender IJN
4. Every moving object, fibroid, growth, High blood pressure, that want to kill me before my time, scatter by fire in the name of Jesus Christ.
5. Father, please, remember me , unseat those on my rightful positions and put me there in Jesus name.
6. Father, remove anyone in my rightful position and place me there in Jesus name.
7. Father, please, , remember me and release my destiny helpers to where I am IJN
8. Father, please, , remember me and connect me to my destiny helpers in Jesus name.

SERVE GOD'S PURPOSE

“Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable, because by him the LORD had given deliverance unto Syria...”
(2 Kings 5: 1)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

Naaman was a great and honourable man, he was a noble soldier, he made progress from being a mere recruit to being a captain in the army. Naamam was relevant in his generation; he achieved fame as a soldier; he rose to the limelight.

Naaman’s greatness came because the Lord used him to give deliverance to Syria. He became great because God used him; he was great because he served God's purpose; Naaman fulfilled a divine purpose/assignment, and greatness came to him.

Friend, your greatness is tied to the fulfillment of God's purpose and assignment on your life. Greatness will come your way naturally when you learn to do God’s will and fulfill God’s plan and purpose for your life. Greatness will not come only by your abilities, but it will come when your abilities serve heaven’s purpose on earth. Greatness is when heaven finds profit through you.

When you discover and fulfill God’s purpose for your life, you are on the highway that will eventually lead you to honour and fame. When you fulfill God's expectations from you, greatness is inevitable. Your greatness is tied to an divine assignment that God wants you to fulfill. Aligning yourself with God’s plan is the only way to be more than you are.

Naaman’s master may not have planned to make him honourable, but what God did through Naaman made him honourable. Your honour and fame does not lie in the hands of men; it lies in God’s hands. Seek God, seek to fulfill His plan and assignment for your life, and you will naturally attain greatness.

Prayer : Lord, show me that divine purpose and assignment that will make me great and famous, in Jesus’ name!Amen

YOU ARE UNSTOPPABLE

“Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable, because by him the LORD had given deliverance unto Syria: he was also a mighty man in valour, but he was a leper.” (2 Kings 5: 1)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

Our Focal Scripture presents two sides of Naaman's life. Naaman was a successful warrior, and was important to his master; he was a mighty man of valour; he was famous and did exploit. There was so much in Naaman’s life that any man of his generation would have desired, but he was also a leper.

No man willfully chooses to become a leper. Leprosy is a health challenge. Leprosy was a setback that happened to Naaman. It was his chapter of pain. Despite Naaman's leprosy, he became great. Despite his setback, he attained greatness. What happened to Naaman did not stop his manifestation.

Friend, hear God’s prophetic word: whatever happened to you will not stop your march to greatness. The disappointments, setbacks, rejections, pain, misfortunes, ill luck, etc that may have come your way will not stop God from making you who He wants you to be. The enemy may have planted roadblocks on your way to stop you, but God says, no destiny roadblock will stop you. You will rise above whatever happened to you.

God is bigger than every setback that has come your way. God’s plan for your life is bigger than the misfortunes that may have come to you. If Jehovah is involved, your setbacks may still be there and you will attain greatness, and whatever happened to you will be a lone, isolated chapter in the success story that God will make out of you.

Instead of focusing on what happened to you, focus on God; God is able to make you who He wants you to be. Hold on to God, and you will rise above what happened to you.

Prayer : Lord, whatever happened to me will not stop me, in Jesus’ name!Amen

BREAK THAT LIMIT

“Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable... ance unto Syria: he was also a mighty man in valour, but he was a leper.”
(2 Kings 5: 1)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

Naaman’s life presents an irony of some sorts: he was a great man but was also a leper. He had areas of strength, but also had a weakness that had the capacity to ground him. He had a major advantage, but he also had a disappointing disadvantage.

Naaman may have chosen to sit back and be a miserable leper, but he chose to be an outstanding warrior. Instead of accepting his fate and live with what life threw at him, he made a higher, tougher choice to stay on the grind despite his misfortune. He broke the limits of his condition.

Friend, life may have thrown limits around you, but God says, break out of the limits. Break out of your disadvantages; break out of the boundaries of your weaknesses, limits and setbacks; don’t live your life according to what happened to you; don’t allow what happened to you to limit your march to greatness.

God says, don’t allow poverty to stop you from dreaming big and thinking big; don’t allow rejection to stop you from trying again; don’t allow unemployment to stop you from taking vital steps that will be ultimately rewarding; don’t allow your background to confine you in obscurity. Step out of your limits and do what you have to do.

Naaman remained a warrior despite his leprosy, and with time, he captured a Hebrew maid that connected him to Elisha. What he got by breaking his limit empowered him to move completely out of his limit.

If you keep building on your strength, your weakness will go into hiding. If you stay on the grind despite your disadvantages, soon, the yoke will be taken off your neck.

Prayer : Lord, give me grace to break out of the limits of my challenges, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Enjoy A Super Sunday.

YOU ARE IMPORTANT

“And the Syrians had gone out by companies, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid; and she waited on Naaman's wife.” (2 Kings 5: 2)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

In our Focal Scripture, the Syrian forces went to war and captured a little maid who became a maid to Naaman’s wife. An entire army came together to capture a harmless little girl. One or two soldiers should have been enough to capture a small girl, but for the Hebrew maid, an entire army came against her. She was harmless but faced a huge opposition.

The Hebrew maid later became the channel through which Naaman got information about Elisha. She was a small girl, but she had strategic information. She looked ordinary, she was small, but she carried divine deposits and divine information that would later transform Naaman’s life.

Friend, the magnitude of the opposition against you is indicative of divine deposits in you. When the enemy comes against you despite your uprightness, just maybe you are a threat to him; there is something about you that scares the enemy.

When your colleagues, neighbours, haters, mockers, etc always conspire against you or tell wicked gossip about you despite your innocence, cheer up, there is something big in you that unsettles them and attracts the opposition.

You may look small but you are loaded with treasures; you may seem deprived and disadvantaged, but you are the next big thing that God is about to manifest. You may be the target for the conspiracy of haters, but it's all a sign of your importance.

Celebrate the battles, conspiracies, gossips, opposition, etc that have come against you despite your uprightness. If the enemy fights you, it because you are highly important.

Prayer : Lord, I declare that every opposition against me is a sign of my importance, in Jesus’ name!Amen

FIGHT THAT BATTLE

“And the Syrians had gone out by companies, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid; and she waited on Naaman's wife.” (2 Kings 5: 2)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

The Hebrew maid in our Focal Scripture was a product of warfare. Syrian soldiers fought before they got the maid that later led Naaman to his healing; they fought in order to get someone who transformed the life of their captain; they fought until their battle added value to them.

Friend, God says, fight your battles until you receive treasures; there are treasures in your warfare. The things you need for your next level will come through warfare. Wage war against the enemy until things change around you; pray until the doors that are shut against you open unto you; pray until the treasures that are absent in your life come to you in abundance.

The opponents of the Syrian army may not have willingly let go of the maid, but they released her in the midst of intense battle. Some things may not come to you if you negotiate with the enemy, but when you arise in warfare prayers, they will come easily. Impossibilities will become possible when you try the warfare option.

Prayerfully wage war until your erring child changes for good; wage war against the satanic powers that are responsible for your health challenge; your finances may not change, you may not rise in your career, your business may not make progress, the cycle of stagnation may not end, etc until you arise in spiritual warfare.

Your challenges will crumble under intense spiritual warfare. Don’t give up on your battles; fight on, keep pushing, press on, and you will prevail.

Psalm 144 vs. 1 says: “Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:”

Prayer : Lord, teach my hands to make war; may my warfare bring me treasures, in Jesus’ name!Amen

GROW YOUR RELEVANCE

“2. And the Syrians had gone out by companies, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid; and she waited on Naaman's wife. 3. And she said unto her mistress, Would God my lord were with the prophet that is in Samaria! for he would recover him of his leprosy.” (2 Kings 5: 2-3)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

When the Hebrew maid in our Focal Scripture was brought to Naaman’s household, her primary assignment was to minister to Naaman’s wife. She had a limited job description. She had no business serving Naaman directly. She had limited relevance.

In the process of time, the Hebrew maid brought the idea of how Naaman could be healed. She went beyond serving Naaman’s wife and added value to Naaman himself. She stepped out of the confines of her job description and solved a higher need.

Friend, you may be in the same level of influence, but dare to operate above your job description. Solve a higher need. Do more than men expect you to do. Rise above the confines of your limited job description and do things that will add more value to people around you. Step out of that mould that men have cast you in and do what they don't imagine you can do.

You can do more and be more than men thought you could do or be; more doors of relevance will be opened to you; God will transit you from where you play second fiddle to where your potentials and potentialities are maximized; God will cause men to see you through the binoculars of the higher needs you can solve.

The Hebrew maid was not forced into a higher relevance; she just saw what she could do differently, and she did it and became more relevant. Discover what you can do beyond your current job description, and as you do it, your relevance will grow.

Prayer: Lord, open my eyes to see the extra that I can do and be, in Jesus’ name!Amen

ASSIGNMENT IN CONFINEMENT

“2. And the Syrians had gone out by companies, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid... 3. And she said unto her mistress, Would God my lord were with the prophet that is in Samaria! for he would recover him of his leprosy.”
(2 Kings 5: 2-3)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

The little maid in Naaman’s household was a captive of war; she was taken as a prisoner of war. She was a slave in Naaman’s house; she had no right or privilege; she had no business making suggestions; she was in subjugation; even if she was treated well, she was still in confinement and bondage.

Despite her confinement, she made a strategic suggestion on what could be done about Naaman's leprosy. She saw what was wrong, and suggested the way out. She was a slave, but her slavery didn't stop her from solving a need. Despite her confinement and captivity, she served a high purpose.

Friend, God says, even in your confinement, serve a divine purpose. Even when you don’t like where you are, discover and serve a high purpose. Even if your dream job has not come yet, discover the new twist and new assignment you can take up in your current job role. Even if your business has not hit the profit level you desire, discover what you can do to make things better.

In the midst of your unanswered prayers, discover the divine assignment God wants you to fulfill. Discover and fulfill the assignment in your wilderness while you wait for your wilderness to become fruitful. Discover what you can do differently as you wait for the difference you seek.

The place of your confinement can be better if you fulfill the assignment you ought to fulfill. Ask God to open your eyes to see the divine assignment you need to fulfill in your confinement.

Prayer : Lord, show me the assignment in my confinement, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Enjoy A Fantastic Friday.

29th October 2015- OH GOD REMEMBER ME -

Memory verse: O LORD, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke.

Whenever God remembers anyone, there is always a visitation.

When God remembers anyone, he accepts his or her renunciation

It doesn’t matter how long, it doesn’t matter how far, what matters is for God to remember anyone. The moment that takes place, there is a visitation from God and whenever God visits, there is a testimony.

The same God that remembered Abraham, Jacob, Hannah, Joseph, Esther, Jabez, the woman with the issue of blood, will remember you and change your story, in Jesus name.

It doesn’t matter how long you have been oppressed by the devil, what matters is for the Almighty God to remember you in this month of October and the rest is testimony.

The three last letters of the month of October and the three last letters of Remember are the same, by next October you will be sharing your testimony in Jesus name.

SCRIPTURAL CASE STUDY: 1 Samuel 1 & 2

THINGS TO LEARN FROM THE STORY OF HANNAH
1. Hannah identified that there was an affliction in her life
2. Hannah identified her place of visitation - 1 Samuel 1 V 3 - And this man went up out of his city yearly to worship and to sacrifice unto the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the LORD, were there.
3. Hannah finally came up with the enough is enough mentality -1 Samuel 1 Verse 10 - And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the LORD, and wept sore.
4. Hannah gave God a vow, He could not resist - 1 Samuel 1 V 11- And she vowed a vow, and said, O LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.
5. God accepted her vow and remembered her - 1 Samuel 1 V 19 - And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her.
6. After the blessing she was trust worthy and a testifier - 1 Samuel 1 V 21 & 22 - And the man Elkanah, and all his house, went up to offer unto the LORD the yearly sacrifice, and his vow.
22 But Hannah went not up; for she said unto her husband, I will not go up until the child be weaned, and then I will bring him, that he may appear before the LORD, and there abide for ever. Amos 3 V 13 - Hear ye, and testify in the house of Jacob, saith the Lord GOD, the God of hosts,
7. Her Garment of barren woman was changed with garment of Fruitfulness - 1 Samuel 2 V 20 & 21- And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, The LORD give thee seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to the LORD. And they went unto their own home. 21 And the LORD visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the LORD.

WHAT IS THE SIGNICANCE OF CHANGE OF GERMENT?
It enables transformation from who you are, to who God wants you to be

In Zechariah 3 V 3- is the story of Joshua, the high priest, that was clothed with filthy garments.

Zech 3 v 3- Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.

In verse 4 and 5, the Lord speaking; - “ And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment. 5- And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the LORD stood by.

Today, God is going to remember you, he will visit you and remove your filthy garments

Prayer Point
1. Father, please, let every sins of iniquities of my fathers/mothers by myself be forgiven today, IJN.
2. Father, please, brake every evil covenants from my fathers/mothers’ house that is affecting me, IJN
3. Father, please, remove my name from any ancestral file/alter from my foundation, in Jesus name.
4. Father, please, cleanse my blood from any evil contamination with the blood of Jesus.
5. Father, please, release the fire of the holy ghost inside me, in Jesus name.
5. Father, please, release the key to the kingdom of heaven, that whatsoever I bind on earth will be bound in heaven, in Jesus name.

6. Father, please, empower my hands for breakthrough, in Jesus name.

7. Any evil creature or kingdom that is with my property, bring it by fire, in Jesus name.

8. Any evil creature that is dead , and you are having what belongs to me, come out from your grave, give me my property and die back in Jesus name.

9. Oh God of Elijah, please, remove every filthy garment from me, in Jesus name.

10. Oh God of Elijah, please, clothe me with a new garment in Jesus name.

LOOK INWARDS

“And she said unto her mistress, Would God my lord were with the prophet that is in Samaria! for he would recover him of his leprosy.”
(2 Kings 5: 3)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

Naaman’s healing began when he got strategic information from the Hebrew maid in his home. Through that maid, Naaman learnt about the possibility of his healing. Through the maid in his home, he got strategic information that turned his life around. He got what he needed in his own home.

Friend, God says, what you have will connect you to what you need. Some contact you have now will open the doors that are shut against you; the skill you have will be the platform for you to earn a decent living; there is a word from God that you have heard already that will answer the questions in your mind; there is a knowledge at your disposal that will make a huge difference for you.

Look inwards and you will see great deposits in you that will connect you to your next level; look inwards and you will see the great ideas, skills, abilities, visions, prospects, etc that will take your life higher; look around you and you will see abandoned opportunities that will distinguish you greatly; look inwards and you will see the seed that will birth your increase and continuous congratulations.

Naaman got information about Elisha through the Hebrew maid in his home, and rather than overlook it, he took action and got his healing. He didn’t look down on what he had within and around him. Don’t look down on what you have at your disposal; don’t underrate your ideas, skills and abilities; don’t imagine that what you have within is too small.

What you have at your disposal may be small in your eyes, but if Jehovah is involved, it will be a platform for great things to happen.

Prayer: Lord, open my eyes to see what I have within and around me that will distinguish me, in Jesus’ name!Amen

PROPHETIC AUTHORITY

“...when Elisha the man of God had heard that the king of Israel had rent his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying…let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.”
(2 Kings 5: cool

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

In our Scripture Reading, the King of Syria wrote to the King of Israel asking him to heal Naaman. The King of Israel got the letter, and rent his clothes in protest. Both kings could not heal Naaman. They had positional authority, but their authority was not enough to solve Naaman’s problem.

Naaman later went to Elisha, and he was healed of his leprosy. Two kings failed him, but he got results through the prophet. Naaman’s problem was beyond the powers and authority of two kings, but it was within the job description of the prophet. Positional authority failed, but Prophetic authority did not fail.

Friend, when positional authority fails, try prophetic authority and you will get results. Prophetic authority is about speaking God’s word and inviting God’s power into a matter to make a difference. When you are faced with challenges that cannot be solved by the efforts, ideas, analysis, skills and abilities of men, turn to God’s word and invite the power of God to make a difference for you. Speak God’s word to any ‘leprosy’ in your life and it will give way.

When the doctor’s report is unfavourable, go for God’s report and it will favour you. The things that are impossible with the kings of this world are possible when prophetic authority steps in. The challenges that are beyond the ideas, abilities, counsel, strength, etc of men will be solved when God Himself steps into the matter to make a difference.

When it is beyond the kings of this world, take it to the prophet and you shall have a miracle.

Prayer : Lord, when positional authority fails me, I will opt for prophetic authority, in Jesus’ name!Amen

To God be all the Glory ,Last month renunciation and deliverance was a success with the God of Elijah attending to every one ,with so many testimonies as prove...

A lady that her case file was open on thursday, that queen of the coast is disturbing just because she said every first daughter must serve her ,but the mother and she refuse to serve her .the queen of the coast then afflict her with sickness ,turn the face of the husband to be against her,stop her from getting job ,stop her from traveling, collected her glory and was tormenting her life ,after doing renunciation that thursday for God to deliver her on saturday...

On saturday as the servant of God was praying the God of Elijah instructed him to use queen of the coast to return all the glories she and the husband satan has collected from all the children of Abraham...
My brothers and my sisters come and see the way Glories were returned back to every one that satan has collected their glory ,even the lady that her case file open on thursday glory was returned ..all the affliction been taken away ,while she vomited all that she has eaten in the dream..

Another girl that her glory has been taken because she refuse to serve them again,so dey came for her ,collected her Glory and that she will get to 20 years before she will finish secondary school ,To God be all the glory she was also attended to yesterday during the deliverance section...

Another lady also that was been tormented by the spirit husband was also delivered during the deliverance section ,as the so call spirit was disgrace openly ,and was shouting what else do I want pls let me go..

After the deliverance section ,some people wait to see the servant of God .then some that had one or two issues were attended to by the God of Elijah and this was what happened ...

A man that the mother spirit was tied spiritually was release as the case file was open ,when the demon refuse to talk or answer any question..but after so many torture and torment from the no mercy angels he starts talking and has no choice but to set the woman free and her spinal cord was also release...

Another man that the younger brother throw arrow to at night ,so he won't work or go any where was also delivered because the demon was called and it was his younger brother that was angry with him because of that he throw arrow to him at night...
After so much torment and torture the brother release him ,untie him and setting him free ..but all that he sent to his brother returned back to his own head (he was given back to sender)..

WHO DID THIS? Jesus.. This can only be the doing of God, Praise the Lord

CLEANED BY DIRT

“And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean.”
(2 Kings 5: 10)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

When Naaman came to Prophet Elisha, Elisha instructed him to go and wash in Jordan for seven times. According to Bible History, Jordan was a dirty river. When a river is dirty and one goes into it, one is likely to come out dirty. So Naaman was meant to throw himself into a dirty river for seven times.

At his seventh entry into River Jordan, Naaman came out with the skin of a baby. The dirty water should have made Naaman dirtier, but instead, it became his cleaning agent. The dirty water should have messed him up, but it made him whole. The water in Jordan made Naaman clean.

Friend, hear God’s prophetic word: the things that make others dirty will make you clean. The things that mess people up will make you up; the things that bring others down will lift you up; the things that break down others will cause you to celebrate.

The things that cause others pain will bring you joy; the gossip that puts other people out of circulation will make you more famous; the things that bring others to tears will bring you into a season of unending laughter.

That ‘dirty water’ is for your next level. The setbacks, misfortunes, conspiracies, pain, shame, gossip, rejection, disappointment, disgrace, etc are tools in God’s hands to make you bigger and better. It may seem like bad luck in the eyes of men, but God is working behind the scenes to bring forth beauty and splendor from the ashes and dirt in your life.

When Jehovah is involved, dirt becomes a raw material for your next level. When Jehovah is involved, the things that should work against you will work for your good.

Prayer : Lord, use the dirt around me to clean me up, in Jesus’ name!Amen

A TOUCH OF PERFECTION

“...Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean.”
(2 Kings 5: 10)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

Elisha told Naaman to wash himself in Jordan seven times, after which his flesh would be renewed. Naaman was told to do one thing seven times. In Bible numerology, seven is the number of perfection; so Naaman was told to do one thing to the point of perfection. One step taken to the point of perfection led to Naaman’s healing.

Friend, God says, do one thing to the point of perfection and it will distinguish you. Carve a niche for yourself in one area of skill; perfect your abilities in one area that can distinguish you; be exceptionally competent in one thing you can be known for; discover one thing and become a master in it.

Discover and perfect that one strategic step that will take you higher. Discover the idea that will lead to your increase, and work it to the point of perfection. Discover the skill in you that needs to be perfected, and if you drive it to the point of perfection, it will open doors for you. Discover your niche and work in it until you attain perfection.

It’s not enough to do the right thing; God says, do the right thing to the point of perfection. Work your dreams, skills, business, career, ministry, etc to a point where you are perfect in your work. Washing in Jordan was simple; and Naaman did it to the point of perfection and got healed.

Your assignments, responsibilities, career, ideas, dreams, skills, abilities, etc may be simple in your eyes, but become exceptional and do it until you attain perfection.

Doing many things shabbily may mess up your chances, but doing one thing perfectly will distinguish you beyond measure.

Prayer : Lord, give me grace to attain perfection in one thing that will distinguish me, in Jesus’ name!Amen
