If God convinces you, nothing (seen or unseen) can discourage you hence you hear such a person saying if I perish doing the perfect-will of God for my life, let me perish


Being Convinced by God involves:
1.Recognising and receiving the word of God for each season of your life. We know that we have received the word of God for our season by believing. We know that we have believed by changing our actions, choices, decisions, behaviours, business-modalities, job-engagements, academic-pursuits, financial-pursuits, unmarried/married relationships, family-principles, relationship-with-God e.t.c. IMMEDIATELY to reflect that your new belief is already manifested by God not minding that everything in your physical circumstances is expressing tangible impossibilities to the word of God spoken to you for that season thus Romans 4:17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. 4:18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that WHICH WAS SPOKEN, So shall thy seed be.


How do we receive the word of God for each season of our lives:

I. Through daily personal bible studies that is consistent and progressive:
You will not need to read the whole holy bible before you can get the word of God for that particular season of your life however reading the whole holy bible repeatedly as you grow in faith keeps your faith-walk with Jesus alive and fresh with the Holy Spirit revelations of the operations of God and how He has spoken to human being in the past and lead them to its full manifestations


II. Prophetic utterances:
When another person is preaching online or offline especially a person whose integrity of faith-walk with Jesus is convincing to your own heart. A particular word spoken impresses upon your heart that this particular word, phrase or clause is specifically directed to you. Receive it, believe it for yourself and engage it with the Holy Spirit repeatedly, consistently and progressively while gathering other biblical passages that supports that word manifestations in the lives of people whose character were revealed in the holy bible until the Holy Spirit begins to explain how He will apply such words in your own particular life. If that word was not for you, the Holy Spirit will also tell you and guide you into His own particular word for your own life.


III. General bible studies:
The Holy Spirit uses people who lead in various bible studies in several gatherings of the God's people to release specific word for the season for several individuals in that fellowship as well as to the general body of Christ in that age


IV. Dreams, Visions, Trance:
The Holy Spirit also uses these medium to convey particular word of the Season for believers however these medium must be examined through the written scriptures as it agrees with Jesus new testament teachings


V. Inner promptings:
The Holy Spirit can drop His word in our hearts sometimes in an audible voice such that you will ask the person near you if he/she heard what you just heard. He can also use a scriptural passage to bring to your memory while you are praying and asking for clarity upon a particular matter. This also needs to be reviewed with the written scriptures according to Jesus teachings.


VI. Gathering, Studying and Praying all biblical verses concerning a particular matter:
Here, you search through the whole holy bible concerning a particular matter for example salvation by grace through faith in Jesus or discipleship or growth in grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ or dreams or healing from God or wisdom of God or financial prosperity or marital-spouse or marital-peace or righteousness by faith in Jesus or victory over sin/flesh/addictions or having sexual intimacy with known and unknown faces in dreams or fruitfulness in child-bearing/business/career or e.t.c.

VII. Prayers:
prayers of faith inside Jesus Christ Crucified is *walking along the corridors of God's presence*. It is *the interaction and utterance of the Holy Spirit; who is God* hence their is ventilation and flow from God to human beings concerning His perfect-will and hidden secrets thus "CALL UNTO ME(PRAYERS), and *I will answer thee*, and *show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not*." (Jeremiah 33:3 kjv)

After gathering the whole biblical passages concerning that matter then you begin to speak it to yourself in your heart and with your mouth consistently and repeatedly and progressively until the Holy Spirit begins to explain those scriptures to you concerning your own particular life and phase/season


2. Sustaining the consciousness of that particular word of God given to you from God directly for that season. This is done by taking that word to God in prayers and begin to repeatedly declare those words into your life and believing that they will come to physical manifestation. Then telling God repeatedly inside your heart and with your mouth that you believe His revealed word for the season will come to manifest in your life both at your private quiet-time and inside your heart at active engagements of your daily schedule as well as asking HIM to convince you that He will bring His Word to its physical manifestation by giving you signs that your human reasoning can relate with in all its tangible aspects hence let Him help you to overcome the doubts of your human mind. As you consistently and repeatedly engage other scriptures were God told other people what He will do and eventually did it as well as getting convinced that He will manifest His own word particularly for your life.

The next aspect of sustaining this consciousness is to begin to imagine yourself doing those things that God's particular word for your life and season has said that He will do in your life. Imagining the reality and manifestations of God's specific word of the season for your life must be repeatedly, consistently and progressively and the Holy Spirit will bring them to physical realities. Each of this aspect of sustaining the consciousness of God's revealed word(rhema) to our lives requires us to consistently ask the Holy Spirit to help us.


3. Obedience:
Here, we are speaking about obedience to personal specific instructions from the Holy Spirit to you like pay the school fees of your brother's children, this same brother maltreated you when he was very wealthy but now he is broke, it could also be pay the house rent of that widow living in the same compound with you, forgive unconditionally that person who hurt you no matter how painful the experience was and how many years it has lasted, ask the Holy Spirit to help you to forgive that person unconditionally e.t.c.

Delayed-obedience equals disobedience in the eyes of God. Offering so much sacrifice/labor/prayers/efforts/engagements in the general/public fellowship/Church/denomination without obeying the personal instructions of the Holy Spirit for your own direct life is tantamount to disobedience in the eyes of God. 1 Samuel 15:22-23. These personal disobedience is equal to idol-worship, witchcraftery, iniquity, stubbornness and rebellion in the eyes of God.


These 3-things are critical issues that have lead many believers not to manifest their fullness for being created and redeemed by Jesus death on the Cross of Calvary.
