NOT BY MAJORITY

“2. ...ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him. 3. And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him...”
(Mark 11: 2-3)

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

In our Focal Scripture, Jesus sent two of His disciples to fetch a colt. Jesus had twelve disciples, and He didn’t send as much as half of them, He sent only two; He sent people who were in a minority; He didn’t need to send everybody. That assignment would later pave the way for His triumphant entry into Jerusalem, and only a minority was sent.

Friend, in this year of Exceeding Expansion, God doesn't need the majority to be in your favour before you can rise; God does not need the majority to make your Exceeding Expansion a reality; God doesn't need everyone and everything - bosses, colleagues, clients, economy, etc - to support your progress before it can materialize. God is not dependent on majority.

Jesus told the two disciples whom He sent that if any man queries them, they should say that the Lord has need of the colt. So the minority that went on an assignment were to use the name of the Lord if any opposition arose. It didn’t matter that they were in a minority: their victory formula was ‘The Lord’.

When the majority is not on your side, remember, the Lord is on your side; and if Jehovah is on your side, the majority may oppose you but they can’t stop you. If you tag along with the Lord this year, you will demystify the majority that is not with you.

The name of the Lord is the antidote for every majority that is not in your favour. Your success is not by majority, it is by the name of the Lord.

Psalm 20 vs. 7 says: “Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.”

Prayer : Lord, my success is not at the mercy of the majority; it is a function of grace, in Jesus name! Amen

THERE IS A WORD

“And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,”
(Mark 11: 1)

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

In Zechariah 9 vs. 9, Zechariah prophesied about Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem which would involve a colt. So when Jesus sent two disciples to fetch the colt, it was in fulfillment of prophecy. The was a word from the Lord concerning the colt, and Jesus couldn’t enter Jerusalem without it. God's word concerning the colt came to pass.

Friend, because of God's word over your life, you won't be left behind in destiny. Because of what God already said about you, you won't be an abandoned project. You will be included among those who will enjoy an Exceeding Expansion because of God's word concerning you. As you dwell in the atmosphere of the word of God, God will continue to fulfill His word concerning your life.

Every word God has spoken or written concerning you will come to pass. It may take some time, it may seem delayed or forgotten by God, but relax, God won’t forget to bring His word to fulfillment; it may seem impossible to be fulfilled, but God knows what to do to fulfill every word He has spoken concerning you.

The colt didn't remind Jesus about Zechariah's prophecy, but Jesus knew, and at the appointed time for the prophecy to be fulfilled, it was fulfilled without delay. Every word God has spoken concerning you is self fulfilling. At the time appointed by God, His word concerning you will come to pass.

Habakkuk 2 vs. 3 says: “For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.”

Prayer : Lord, Your word concerning me must come to pass, in Jesus’ name!Amen

BEYOND THE GIFTS

“And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him.”
(Luke 5: 11)

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

After Peter and his partners brought their ships to the shore, they abandoned everything and followed Jesus. These men had just received a huge miracle from Jesus, but their topmost priority was to follow Him. What Jesus did for them was not enough to make them forget to follow Him. Their testimonies did not distract them from the Master. They didn’t love the gift more than the Giver.

Friend, whatever God does for you is not more important than following Him. The blessings of God on your life do not mean that you don’t need God anymore. The more God blesses you, the more you need Him in your life. The more God opens doors for you, the more you should walk closely with Him. Whatever miracle, breakthrough, testimony, etc God grants you is a platform to increase your commitment to God.

When Peter began to follow Jesus full time, he eventually became the chief of the Apostles. What he achieved when he was a part time follower of Jesus was nothing compared to what he became when he chose to be a full time follower and worshipper. The blessings of your part time commitment to God can never be compared to the relevance you will attain when you commit to God full time.

If all you do is to receive blessings and walk away, be careful, blessings are not all there is to life. There is a purpose to fulfill beyond the blessings you have received or will receive; the material things you receive from God should not make you lose sight of the destiny God wants you to fulfill.

Stay connected to God and deepen your commitment to Him no matter the blessings you have received. There are higher heights than whatever God has done for you. Don’t let the gifts take the place of the giver .
prayer:Lord, whatever You give me will never take your place.Amen

NO MORE A SPECTATOR

“And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships...”
(Luke 5: 7)

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

When Jesus wanted to preach to the crowd at Lake Gennesaret, He had two ships to choose from, and He chose Peter’s ship. He used Peter’s ship as a platform to preach. Peter enjoyed the spotlight alongside Jesus; but the partners within the vicinity who also had a ship got no attention from Jesus. Some men appeared to have been left behind.

After Peter’s net breaking miracle, he invited the partners who also had a ship. The people who seemed forgotten suddenly became relevant again. They may have been away from the spotlight for a while, despite having a ship, but when it was time for results, they were not left behind. They didn’t even do as much as Peter did, but they got results.

Friend, you may not be in the spotlight yet, you may not have been chosen yet, your testimonies may not have begun yet, you may seem to have been left behind, but God says, when it is time for results to manifest, you won’t be left behind. You may not work as hard as others who are currently ahead of you, but when it is time for results, as they count theirs, you will count yours.

God says, you won’t be left behind in the matter of success. You won’t be a spectator while others tell the tales of their Exceeding Expansion. You won’t be counted among those whose ships remained empty while others had their ships laden with God’s abundant supply.

The same God who did it for others will also do it for you; the same God who remembered others will also remember you.

2 Corinthians 9: 8 says: “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:”

Prayer : Lord, as You do for others, You will also do for me, in Jesus’ name!Amen

YOU WON'T LOSE CONTROL

“6. And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake. 7. …they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.” (Luke 5: 6-7)

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

When Peter caught a great haul of fishes and invited his partners to come to his rescue, soon, both ships were filled and the net got torn. Soon also, they faced the possibility of having their ships sink in the sea because of the load of fishes they carried. Their miracle appeared to be leading to losses and negativity.

In subsequent verses, Peter and his partners brought the ships to the sea shore. So their ships did not sink and their fishes did not get lost. Things seemed to be out of their control, but in the end, things did not go wrong. They were not in control of the situation, but they definitely did not lose control.

Friend, hear God’s prophetic word: you may not be in control but you won’t lose control. You may not be in charge of what is going on around you, but God says, things won’t turn against you. The tide may seem to be turning against your interest, but in the end, nothing will go wrong. People may make arrangements to truncate your destiny, but God says, no matter how hard they try, you will be unscathed and you won’t lose control.

Peter got a word from Jesus, and there was no way his ship was going to sink in Jesus' presence. If you are connected to Jesus, He won't allow the tide to turn against you when you are not in control. When Jehovah is involved in your life, even when the enemies of your destiny appear to be on the brink of winning, God won’t let them win.

Don’t lose sleep whenever you are not directly in control of any situation. God says, you may not be in control, but you won't lose control.

Prayer : Lord, I may not always be in control, but I won’t lose control, in Jesus’ name!Amen

NEVER THE LESS

“And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.”
(Luke 5: 5)

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

When Jesus instructed Peter to let down his net, Peter reminded Jesus of how he had made fruitless efforts. Peter came with a nasty experience of working hard and having nothing to show for it. He had a fresh memory of failure; he had a fresh memory of what didn’t work for him.

After reeling out his experience, Peter said, “…nevertheless, at thy word I will let down the net”. The word ‘nevertheless’ can be broken into three words: never the less. Peter seemed to say to Jesus, “At thy word, I can never be the less”. Peter was not about to become the less because of a word from Jesus.

Friend, if you can operate with a word from Jesus, you can never be the less. If you run your race in 2020 with a constant confession of God’s word over your life, you will never be the less; if you keep believing and insisting on what God has said concerning you, you will never be the less. God’s word is the passcode that will stop you from being the less in all your ways.

Circumstances sought to make Peter the less, but God’s word gave him more. When you stay connected to God’s word, Jehovah will have no option but to give you more than you asked for. When you keep listening to God’s word, the word will prevail over every circumstance that wants to make you less. In the absence of the Word, you are less; but with the Word, you are more than you imagine.

Jesus’ word did not fall to the ground. Jesus told Peter what to do, and when he obeyed, he caught a great haul of fishes. Be obedient to God’s word in all your ways, and God will cause you to experience an Exceeding Expansion.

Prayer : Lord, by Your word, I shall never be the less, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Receive Grace To Be More!

AWAY FROM DARKNESS

“And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing...”
(Luke 5: 5)

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

When Jesus instructed Peter to let down his net for a catch, Peter reminded Jesus that he had toiled all night without results. Peter made professional efforts, those efforts were made at night, and he came out empty handed. He made efforts under the cover of darkness, and the efforts were fruitless.

Darkness is synonymous with satanic activity; so could it be that Peter’s efforts were marred by satanic activity? Could it be that forces of darkness caused a professional fisherman like Peter to make efforts that should have brought results, but somehow, the results were nowhere to be found? Could it be possible that 'darkness' crippled Peter’s efforts?

Friend, arise in warfare prayers against any force of darkness that wants to make a mess up your efforts. Pray against every satanic projection that wants you to end up empty handed; pray against every territorial demon that wants to make you labour without results; speak against every force of darkness that wants to waste your time and efforts.

Jesus was absent while Peter made efforts at night, and he ended without results. The absence of Jesus is the greatest darkness that will cripple you. If you leave Jesus out of your efforts, forces of darkness will take over and have dominion over your genuine, professional and competent efforts.

Any darkness around your efforts will open the door for disappointments and disgrace. Destroy every satanic activity surrounding your efforts, and you shall have amazing results.

Ephesians 6 vs. 11 advises: “Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.”

Prayer : Lord, destroy every 'darkness' that wants to make my efforts fruitless, in Jesus’ name!Amen

TAKE ACTION

“Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.”
(Luke 5: 4)

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

When Jesus was done speaking God’s word to the multitudes, He commanded Peter to launch out into the deep. While Jesus was teaching the Word, Peter’s ship was just a little bit from the shore. Jesus preached and Peter heard the word in shallow waters. Ordinarily, it is more convenient to come out of shallow waters than to escape from deep waters.

Peter heard the word in shallow waters, but when it was time to take action, Jesus told him to get into the deep waters to catch fish. The hearing of God’s word by Peter was in the place of convenience, but the action that was to follow was at the place of inconvenience. Peter heard the word conveniently, but he took action inconveniently.

Friend, you may hear God’s word conveniently, but dare to do it inconveniently. When God’s word inspires you to take a step of faith, take it even if it is not a convenient action. When God impresses it upon you to sow a seed, do it even if it is not convenient.

If God desires that you serve Him, serve Him even if the service robs you of some comfort. Take the necessary actions, make the necessary prayers, etc even if it is outside of the zone of convenience.

God’s word may sound good to your ears, but it may not be so convenient when you want to practice it. God’s word may excite you, but the actions it demands from you may not be exciting. The steps of faith that God’s word demands from you may not be such that you would readily want to engage in.

Inconvenience is the pathway to the next level. If you can't deny yourself of pleasures and do what your flesh is not comfortable with, you may not be prepared for your Exceeding Expansion.

Prayer : Lord, I shall do Your word even when it is not convenient, in Jesus’ name!Amen

NO MORE FRUITLESS EFFORTS

“Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.”
(Luke 5: 4)

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

Prior to Jesus’ encounter with Peter, Peter toiled all night and caught nothing. He made efforts with no results to show for it. He worked hard as a fisherman, he did what should attract results, yet he was empty handed. Peter seemed to be stuck in a cycle of efforts without results. He was in a chapter of his life where he had nothing to show for his efforts.

When Jesus got involved, He instructed Peter to lay down his net for a catch, after which Peter caught so much fish that his own ship could not contain. Peter moved from a phase of fruitless efforts to a phase where little efforts brought resounding results. He moved from emptiness to abundance.

Friend, hear God’s prophetic word: you are stepping out of the season of fruitless efforts and stepping into a season where your little efforts will bring resounding results. You are breaking out of the season of being empty handed despite your efforts. Henceforth, everything you do shall prosper; every effort you make will bring results; every opportunity you take will pay off; every seed you sow will bring a harvest.

When Jehovah is involved, there is no such thing as fruitless efforts. When Jehovah is involved, even a little, regular effort can bring you resounding results. When God remembers you for good, everything you touch will prosper. When God gets involved in the work of your hands, you will move from fruitlessness to super abundance.

Peter’s new tale of fruitfulness began when Jesus became a part of what he was doing. Get God involved in your efforts, and He will cause you to be fruitful.

Prayer : Lord, my little efforts will bring resounding results; no more fruitless efforts, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Welcome To Your Fruitful Season.

Queen of lust.

It was Sunday morning. She sprayed the abrakadabra perfume given to her by 3am at her mermaid last meeting. She dressed up in her seductive clothes. If a guy look at her front - trouble, if you look at her back- problem. She put on the highest heel shoe you ever see. It was so high that she had to twist her body like a snake to take each step.

When she reached the church it was sermon time, she proceeded straight to the front. Her presence changed the atmosphere. Guys started adjusting there seats to create space, it might be she would branch to their seats. There was something charming about her presence and appearance. The scent of her perfume alone arouse you sexually. But she continued moving to the front. Some of the guys were lost within thirty seconds. They forgot the message and started lusting

The Usher in the front perceived something in the spirit. He started praying silently in tongues. Then he waved hand to her to go back. She stopped, hissed, looked at him up and down and took another step forward......that was her last step
Gbuaaaaaaaaa....she fell down. The high heel broke and there was her on the floor, the queen of lust.

There was something about her falling down, those carnal guys suddenly regained their consciousness. She shamefully and hurriedly went out of the church -mission failed!

That was how her mission failed. She was sent to spread the spirits of lust, pornography and masturbation.

Some come to church as agents of darkness. If you are officiating at any time in your church please soak yourself in prayer. Do not take God's work casually. Your failure to be on guard in the spirit will negatively affect the members of the church. Activities in the church is more than secular work.

Are you doing anything in the church? You need to prepare by soaking yourself in prayer. Be a man of righteousness, a man of the spirit and a man of the word.
Pray in tongues always.

Sunday school teachers....

Prepare your outlines for Sunday school but also pray to tune your spirit.

Ushers..

Iron your clothes and polish your shoes. But let your heart be right with God.

Choir..

Train your voice and tune your instruments but also be spiritually sound.
