DEPRESSION IS DEADLY
MEMORISE:
A merry heart maketh a cheerful
countenance: but by sorrow of
the heart the spirit is broken.

Proverbs 15:13
READ
Philippians 4:4-7
4 Rejoice in the Lord alway: and
again I say, Rejoice.
5 Let your moderation be known
unto all men. The Lord is at hand.
6 Be careful for nothing; but in
every thing by prayer and
supplication with thanksgiving let
your requests be made known
unto God.
7 And the peace of God, which
passeth all understanding, shall
keep your hearts and minds
through Christ Jesus.
MESSAGE
Many people have lost contact with
Heaven because of depression.
There is no way you can carry out
the divine commission of the Lord
with a depressed spirit. It is the joy
of the Lord that should rule your
heart. There is a pit you must avoid
in life; it is the pit of depression.
You must avoid this pit because it
kills the spirit-man gradually. If you
are sorrowful and depressed for
too long over the problems of life,
you will destroy yourself.
Depression can deaden your
marrow, and when this happens,
death is at the corner. Every day
and in every way, let the joy of the
Lord continue to be your strength.
With the joy of God, you can
always confront the problems of
life, giving thanks to the Lord in
every situation and at all times.
Always take your problems to the
Lord in prayer and leave everything
at the feet of Jesus. Tell the Lord
your heartaches and all your
sorrows; you can be sure He will
meet you at the very point of your
needs. Don’t bottle up your issues,
this will lead to depression. God is
your Creator and He has the right
solutions to all the problems of life.
Just pray and never panic. There
are many people who are
hypertensive today, and are in a
very poor state of health because
of depression and sorrows. Always
learn how to be joyful; never give
room for anyone to sentence you
to the prison of sorrow. There are
people who experience happiness,
but God wants you to continue to
draw your joy from Him.
Happiness comes when something
good happens to people. Joy
however is like a well of water that
springs forth naturally even when
nothing has happened. Rejoice in
the Lord because you are a new
creature and because of the hope
you have in Christ Jesus.
The Lord can turn your captivity
into freedom and break every
limitation on your way. Come out
of your sorrow and proclaim the
joy of the Lord. The Lord can put
an end to poverty and stagnation
in your life. It does not matter the
years you have spent under the
grip of the enemy. What matters
most is that the Lord is set to do
wonderful things in your life.
Everything that has been
responsible for sorrow, shame and
reproach in your life is being
turned to a testimony. Through the
power of God, every shame can be
turned to glory and every sorrow
can be turned to joy.
Notwithstanding the arrows shot
by the enemy, the Lord will save,
deliver and totally set free all those
who are under the affliction of
depression. Receive your
deliverance from today in Jesus’
Name.


BIBLE IN A YEAR
Joshua 23-24
Job 38:25-28
PRAYER POINT:
Father, deliver me from every
satanic depression in Jesus’
Name.

TOPIC:CHAMPIONS AND GOALS

MEMORISE
Looking unto Jesus the author
and finisher of our faith; who for
the joy that was set before him
endured the cross, despising the
shame, and is set down at the
right hand of the throne of God.

Hebrews 12:2
READ
1 Samuel 17:32-37
32 And David said to Saul, Let no
man's heart fail because of him; thy
servant will go and fight with this
Philistine.
33 And Saul said to David, Thou art
not able to go against this
Philistine to fight with him: for
thou art but a youth, and he a man
of war from his youth.
34 And David said unto Saul, Thy
servant kept his father's sheep,
and there came a lion, and a bear,
and took a lamb out of the flock:
35 And I went out after him, and
smote him, and delivered it out of
his mouth: and when he arose
against me, I caught him by his
beard, and smote him, and slew
him.
36 Thy servant slew both the lion
and the bear: and this
uncircumcised Philistine shall be
as
one of them, seeing he hath defied
the armies of the living God.
37 David said moreover, The LORD
that delivered me out of the paw of
the lion, and out of the paw of the
bear, he will deliver me out of the
hand of this Philistine. And Saul
said unto David, Go, and the LORD
be with thee.



MESSAGE
Champions are people of rugged
determination. Once they set their
minds on certain goals, nothing will
make them change their minds.
They will pursue their goals
relentlessly until they arrive at their
desired destination. Divine
champions see every mountain as
a potential testimony. David was so
sure that Goliath would end up like
the lion and the bear he had killed.
In other words, the present
problem would become a
testimony. Many times when we go
to battle, we expect to come back
without a scar. Divine champions
believe all their goals will be
actualised, but not without pain.
They don’t bother about the pain
because they know that at the end
they will have their victory. They
are people like Paul who would
say: “I forget those things that are
behind, and press forward”
(Philippians 3:13-14) . A divine
champion is like a river. A river will
always look for a way around an
obstruction to get to the ocean.
I suppose David would have said to
himself: “Not one of the sheep
given to me by my father would get
lost”. All of a sudden, a lion came
and grabbed one of the sheep.
David faced the lion that was the
champion of the forest and killed
it. This was what gave David the
boldness to confront the champion
of the city. Your ability to achieve a
particular goal is a function of the
one you have achieved in the past
through the help of the Almighty
God. When the Lord decided to
move us from the first auditorium
at the Redemption Camp, there
were many people who felt that the
auditorium we were moving from
was the biggest they had ever seen.
Also, when the Lord decided to
move us away from the second
auditorium to the arena where we
presently worship, many said it was
impossible, but it happened.
Today, the Lord is set to move us
to a bigger arena because the
children need to occupy the
present one. Many of us have lost
our miracles because we stopped
so soon. A divine champion sets
goals believing that with God,
nothing shall be impossible (Luke
1:37) . I have been challenged by
people who say what we want to
do is impossible. The moment you
say it is impossible, I will show you
that it is possible. It could take
some sweating, fasting, night vigils
and a little extra effort, but
whatever goals divine champions
set before God, they will get it. As a
divine champion, it is not all the
time you set a goal that you realise
it at first instance. Many times, you
have to try and try over and over
again before you succeed. The
important thing is that as a child of
God you will win at the end.

BIBLE IN A YEAR
Joshua 22
Job 38:12-24
KEY POINT
In Christ alone lies the strength
of a divine champion.

TOPIC:WIND OF CHANGE
MEMORISE
Now when they saw the boldness
of Peter and John, and perceived
that they were unlearned and
ignorant men, they marvelled;
and they took knowledge of
them, that they had been with
Jesus.

Acts 4:13

READ
2 Kings 2:11-14
11 And it came to pass, as they still
went on, and talked, that, behold,
there appeared a chariot of fire,
and horses of fire, and parted
them both asunder; and Elijah went
up by a whirlwind into heaven.
12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried,
My father, my father, the chariot of
Israel, and the horsemen thereof.
And he saw him no more: and he
took hold of his own clothes, and
rent them in two pieces.
13 He took up also the mantle of
Elijah that fell from him, and went
back, and stood by the bank of
Jordan;
14 And he took the mantle of Elijah
that fell from him, and smote the
waters, and said, Where is the
LORD God of Elijah? and when he
also had smitten the waters, they
parted hither and thither: and
Elisha went over.

MESSAGE

When the wind blows, you get new
power and there is a symbolic
change of garment, as it happened
in the life of Elisha. After
experiencing the wind of change,
Elisha took off his old garments
and tore them to pieces. It was
only after he tore off the old that
he put on the mantle that Elijah
had dropped off for him. To
experience the new power that the
wind of change brings, you must
be ready to tear off your old
garments and get into new
garments.
At the time Jesus was crucified,
Peter was a terrified weakling who
went into hiding. After the wind
blew on the day of Pentecost, this
same Peter became the first
empowered, bold preacher of the
gospel of Jesus. In addition to his
power-packed preaching, Peter
also spoke boldly the words that
brought about the first recorded
miracle among the early Christians.
This is precisely what all Christians
of today desperately need: power
and grace. The apostles of the early
church had so much power their
exploits for God are still inspiring
us today. Besides, there was so
much grace upon their lives and
ministry that even the authority of
the established rulers of their day
paled into insignificance.
Nicodemus came to Jesus and
testified to the greatness of His
power in John 3:2:
“The same came to Jesus by
night, and said unto him, Rabbi,
we know that thou art a teacher
come from God: for no man can
do these miracles that thou
doest, except God be with him.”
This is time for the wind of change
to blow in your life. The Lord
Almighty wants to fill your mouth
with testimonies. An end has come
to all the curses that have been
working against you. The anointing
of the Lord can break all the curses
in your life. This power knows no
limitations. The impossibilities on
your way have to be removed
because God is poised to do
wonders in your life. He wants to
put a new song in your mouth that
will make your feet break forth into
dancing and rejoicing. Get ready
for a divine intervention that will
divinely position you for
uncommon breakthrough. You
must however settle your account
with the Lord and get rid of sin
because it can stand in your way to
blessing. God wants you to prosper
and be in good health, and so shall
it be in Jesus’ Name.
BIBLE IN A YEAR
Joshua 19:17-21:45
Job 37:21-38:11
PRAYER POINT
Pray that the anointing will
destroy every yoke in your life
and family.

Politics / Bola Tinubu Sick: APC Leader Has stroke, Unable To Recognise Family by Babafaros(m): 12:36am On Sep 12, 2014
Former Lagos Governor Critically Ill;
Ashiwaju Bola Tinubu Rushed To The
United States For Emergency Medical
Treatment
Ex-governor of Lagos state Nigeria, Bola
Tinubu is clinging to life at an undisclosed
hospital in the US.
Sources say his health condition has
deteriorated as he couldn’t recognise his
family members anymore due to sudden
loss of memory.
The leader of All Progressive Congress Party
reportedly suffered what sources described
as spiritual attack few days after Osun State
Gubernatorial election.
The doctor taking care of him at his
residence in Lagos told family members to
fly him out of the country because his
situation ‘s critical. He was secretly flown to
the US few days later.
Family members and some key APC leaders
have been praying non-stop for his
restoration since he was secretly flown out
of Nigeria.
Wishing him quick recovery.

TOPIC:,HIS PRESENCE, OUR BLESSING


MEMORISE
Surely goodness and mercy shall
follow me all the days of my life:
and I will dwell in the house of
the LORD for ever.
Psalm 23:6

READ
2 Samuel 6:6-11
6 And when they came to Nachon's
threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his
hand to the ark of God, and took
hold of it; for the oxen shook it.
7 And the anger of the LORD was
kindled against Uzzah; and God
smote him there for his error; and
there he died by the ark of God.
8 And David was displeased,
because the LORD had made a
breach upon Uzzah: and he called
the name of the place Perezuzzah
to this day.
9 And David was afraid of the LORD
that day, and said, How shall the
ark of the LORD come to me?
10 So David would not remove the
ark of the LORD unto him into the
city of David: but David carried it
aside into the house of Obededom
the Gittite.
11 And the ark of the LORD
continued in the house of
Obededom the Gittite three
months: and the LORD blessed
Obededom, and all his household.


MESSAGE
There are many blessings in the
presence of God. This is the key to
drawing multitudes to the Lord
through His presence in your life.
When people notice that God is
mightily present in your life, they
will seek Him through you. It is not
about making noise; it is about the
visible and verifiable workings of
God. Beginning from today, you
will be a carrier of His glory in
Jesus’ Name.
The story in our Bible reading
today shows us two dimensions
about what the presence of God
can do among His people. It can
bring judgment or blessings. Uzzah
touched the Ark with the motive of
preventing it from falling off the
oxen, but the Lord struck him dead
instantly because he was not
sanctified to do so. Holiness is so
important for accommodating the
presence of God in order to attract
His blessings. We must understand
that toying with sin in the
congregation of God’s people is
asking for instant judgment which
no one can stand. When God is
with you, you will begin to get
blessings you never bargained for.
You will begin to experience
supernatural promotion. As a
slave, through the presence of God
in his life, Joseph became an
overseer. Everything in the empire
of Potiphar was put in his care. He
took over the house; it was he who
decided what the master would eat.
The presence of God with him
ensured his promotion, even in a
hostile environment. Psalm 75:6-7
says,
“For promotion cometh neither
from the east, nor from the
west, nor from the south. But
God is the judge: he putteth
down one, and setteth up
another.”
In Genesis 39:20-23 , when Joseph
was thrown into prison, the jailer
made him overseer of all other
prisoners, because God was with
him. If God is with you, wherever
you are, you will succeed. Romans
8:31 reminds us that if God is for
us, who can be against us? This
also means that if God is against
an individual, who can be for him?
If the presence of the Lord is with
you, let the world come against
you, they will fall down flat before
you. You will do mighty things, and
people will want to know your
secret. The secret is that God is
with you. If God is with you, you
may be selling water and yet be
better off than someone working at
the bank. The moment the
presence of God is with you, you
will be able to say like David in
Psalm 23:4:
“Yea, though I walk through the
valley of the shadow of death, I
will fear no evil: for thou art
with me; thy rod and thy staff
they comfort me.”
BIBLE IN A YEAR
Joshua 16:1-19:16
Job 37:1-20
KEY POINT
The blessing that comes with
God’s presence is worth the
price of consecration required to
attract and keep it.

TOPIC:ORGANISED NOISE

MEMORIZE
Then was our mouth filled with
laughter, and our tongue with
singing: then said they among
the heathen, The LORD hath done
great things for them.

Psalm 126:2
READ:
Psalm 126:1-3
1 When the LORD turned again the
captivity of Zion, we were like them
that dream.
2 Then was our mouth filled with
laughter, and our tongue with
singing: then said they among the
heathen, The LORD hath done great
things for them.
3 The LORD hath done great things
for us; whereof we are glad.
MESSAGE
Human beings love to sing. We
convey our inner feelings to the
outside world through songs. If
you pay close attention to the song
on a person’s lips, you will have an
idea of what is going on in their
mind. A man that sings: “We shall
overcome some day”, may have just
lost a battle. The man who sings:
“Jehovah is your Name” is most
likely fighting a battle. Someone
who sings: “Now that the battle is
over, I am more than a conqueror”,
has just won a battle. Music is
nothing but ‘organised lyrics’. It
can also be organised noise. This is
why God says, if you don’t know
how to sing well, you can still a
make a joyful noise (Psalm 89:4) .
“And, behold, there cometh one
of the rulers of the synagogue,
Jairus by name; and when he saw
him, he fell at his feet, And
besought him greatly, saying, My
little daughter lieth at the point
of death: I pray thee, come and
lay thy hands on her, that she
may be healed; and she shall
live. And Jesus went with him;
and much people followed him,
and thronged him.”
Mark 5:22-24
Jairus was by all standards a great
man, but he had a problem. The
only daughter he had was ill and
was about to die. He ran to Jesus
Christ and implored Him greatly.
He spent a lot of time singing the
song of the desperate, and Jesus
had to follow him home. To a
reader of this devotional: God will
change your song of sorrow to a
song of triumph in Jesus’ Name.
Like everyone else, Jairus was
afraid of the shame that would
follow if Jesus did not intervene. He
was afraid of loneliness. This might
be your own fear too. Jairus was
desperate because he was fighting
a battle that he dared not lose. Yet,
he knew he was fighting a battle he
could not win.
What is that thing that the enemy
has stolen which you want back? It
could be your health; it could be
your joy or prosperity. You will get
it back in Jesus’ Name. The
sorrowful can be full of joy again. I
believe the failures of the past can
be turned into success again. For
every family that has been
destitute, the tide will turn in your
favour. In 2 Kings 4:1-7 , we have
the story of a widow who was so
poor and so heavily in debt that
creditors wanted to trade her sons.
God however stepped in, and the
family became rich. If you begin to
walk in the fear of the Lord, you
will always have good songs to
sing.

TOPIC:WHEN GOD IS NEUTRAL


MEMORISE
For our God is a consuming fire.Hebrews 12:29
READ
Romans 12:19-21
19 Dearly beloved, avenge not
yourselves, but rather give place
unto wrath: for it is written,
Vengeance is mine; I will repay,
saith the Lord.
20 Therefore if thine enemy
hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give
him drink: for in so doing thou
shalt heap coals of fire on his
head.
21 Be not overcome of evil, but
overcome evil with good.

MESSAGE
When you hand over someone to
God and you ask Him to judge the
matter, you have handed the
person over to the One the Bible
refers to as the Righteous Judge.
From 2 Timothy 4:8 , we understand
that when God judges, He does so
righteously. He does not only
judge actions, He judges motives
also. When God judges, He takes
into consideration all the facts that
you do not know about. Proverbs
20:22 advises that when someone
offends you, do not seek revenge.
Rather, wait on the Lord and let
Him handle the situation. When
God decides to fight against
somebody, the battle is over
quickly and disaster is assured
against them. In Numbers 23:17-25 ,
we read the episode of Balak
against the children of Israel. When
God decided to fight against Israel,
twenty-four thousand of them died
in one day (Numbers 25:1-9) . If
you go with sin, you may suddenly
find God fighting against you.
God can also be neutral. He can
watch you as you fight your enemy
on your own. If God takes this
position, you can be sure that the
fight will not last long, and the
outcome will be defeat. In Joshua
6:20-27 , when God was fighting for
Israel, Jericho was taken with just a
shout. However, when they later
fought against a small city call Ai,
they were defeated because God
was not with them as a result of
their disobedience (Joshua 7:3-5) .
Another set of people that God can
take a neutral look on are the
proud. God is interested in seeing
how far their pride can take them.
James 4:6 says:
“But he giveth more grace.
Wherefore he saith, God
resisteth the proud, but giveth
grace unto the humble.”
The proud usually lose in the
battles of life. Pride leads to the
demotion of the individual
involved.
I do not want God to fight against
me, neither do I want Him to be
neutral concerning my case.
Rather, I desire Him to always be
on my side. Exodus 15:9-10 says:
“The enemy said, I will pursue, I
will overtake, I will divide the
spoil; my lust shall be satisfied
upon them; I will draw my
sword, my hand shall destroy
them. Thou didst blow with thy
wind, the sea covered them: they
sank as lead in the mighty
waters.”
Just make sure you trust God. Hand
over all your challenges to Him.
You will be amazed at how He will
bring to pass all you have asked of
Him. Turn to the side of God, for
there is no other place to turn to
where victory is assured. Hold onto
God, and eventually, you will be
triumphant.

BIBLE IN A YEAR
Joshua 10:29-13:7
Job 36:5-16
PRAYER POINT
Father, do not be neutral in any
aspect of my life.
