"My times are in Your hand…"
Psalm 31:15


One thing I’ve learned is that God doesn’t always work on our timetable. In fact, He rarely does. But in a single moment, God can change your life! All throughout Scripture, we see examples of how God was working behind the scenes and instantly turned things around for His people. Scripture tells us He is the same yesterday, today and forever which means if He did it for them, He can instantly turn things around for you, too!

You may be going through some difficulty today, but be encouraged because your times are in God’s hands. Trust that He has your best interest at heart. He wants to pour out His favour. He wants to take you further than you dreamed possible and work in your life in ways beyond what you have ever imagined.

Let this truth sink down into your heart today. Resist discouragement by speaking His Word over your future. Keep standing, keep hoping and keep believing because He is working behind the scenes. Have faith because your times are in His hands, and He will lead you in the life of victory He has for you!

PRAYER:
"Father, today I humbly come before You giving You all that I am. I trust that my times are in Your hands. I trust that You are working things out in my favor. I set my focus on You knowing that You are working things out for my good in JESUS’ name.

In the Name of God the Father, and of God the Son, and of God the Holy Spirit,
Amen!

O Lord my God, grant that I may have fellowship with You every day. Hear my prayer. Remember all who are in distress, and lead them on the right way.
May I go with joyful heart wherever You lead me. Your name will be my help, Your glory will come, and the world will be full of Your love, Your power, and your splendour through Your Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit.
Amen!

Have a fruitful day.
Lots of love!

“He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with him also freely give us all things?” Romans 8:32






The problem many people encounter that has hindered them from accessing all the good things that had been made available to them is their inability to apply the truth of the word of God to themselves.





The word is meant to show you all that had been made available to you so that you can access them. Why die without when you already have all things. When God gave us His son, He gave us His best and when He gave us the Holy Spirit, He gave us His all. He not only gave us the spiritual blessings, He also made available the physical blessings. God is not planning to have you earthly useless and heavenly relevant. No, check through the scriptures, every one that walked with God had more than enough. Take a look at the patriarchs – Abraham, Isaac and Israel – they all had enough and became a nation on their own. They had abundance of gold, silver and everything they needed. It is the same God and we are under a better covenant, ratified by the blood of Jesus Christ.





Wake up to this reality and lay claim to anything you desire. Our today’s text is a powerful revelation. If God spared not His own Son but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Hear me, all things are already yours. Is it a house, car, husband, success, child, family, health, money, what could that thing be? Believe that In Christ you have it and thank God for it and you will see the manifestation. Like I always say, it will not fall on you like a pack of cherries, you have a part to play. Ask God for direction and you will be amazed at what you will achieve within a short while.

I want you to lift your voice to the Almighty God loud and clear and say:Father, this very moment, do something in my life that I will never forget.

Open your mouth and talk to the Almighty God.

This very moment, do something in my life that I will never forget.

Tonight, in the life of everybody, do something new; please, do something special, do something unforgettable. By the time we leave here Lord God Almighty let us already begin to sing songs of victory. Thank You Father.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Amen

Well, let somebody shout hallelujah.

Now, Psalm 30, reading from verse 1 to 5 (Psalm 30 verse 1 to 5):

1I will extol thee, O Lord; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

(Anytime David wanted to talk about something very very serious, he will use the person language –he won’t say: here, he did not say ‘we will extol thee’; he said, ‘I will extol thee, O Lord; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.’)

(By tomorrow morning that will be your song)

He said, 2 O Lord my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.

3 O Lord, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

4 Sing unto the Lord, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

In the Name that is above every other name today is the last time any of you will ever weep.

Now, as usual now, before we go to the B part of the message tonight…; first of all let me thank the Almighty God for my son who brought the first message.

Were you blessed by that message?

Why don’t you shout a bid hallelujah to God.

Before we proceed to the B part of the program I want to spend some time talking to those who are yet to surrender their life to Jesus so that they will not miss the blessings of tonight because miracles are for God’s children.

War is not like a game of football.

In football, you can win, you can loose and it can be a draw game.

But in war, there is nothing called drawn – it either you win or you lose.

And there is somebody here today who will never lose again.

Now, nobody needs to begin to tell you that life is war; from the day you are born till the day go to see God in glory, it is warfare.

The elder says that is why a child cries when he is born because somehow he suddenly realizes troubles begins.

Life is war and in war you either win or you loses.

How many winners are here tonight?

Shout hallelujah.

Now, in Psalm 35 verse 19, David prayed a prayer that is very very instructive: he said, let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me.

Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully (take note of the word ‘enemies wrongfully’) rejoice over me.

In order words, there are wrongful enemies, there are enemies who are your enemies because they just want to be your enemy not that you have offended them – there are wrongful enemies.

But by implication, there are rightful enemies: there are enemies that have the right to be enemies.

David said, I am not praying about those ones; I am praying about wrongful enemies.

You see, there are three ways God can deal with any human being when we are talking about warfare:

Number one) God can hand over somebody to enemies.

You say what?

O, O yes!

If you read Judges Chapter 6 verse 1 to 5, the Bible says, Israel did evil in the sight of God and He handed them over to the midianites for seven years.

When the enemies are enemies appointed by God, then, they are rightful enemies – enemies by divine appointment.

And I have told you before, at least those of you who are a bit old in the Lord, if a demon stands before you and you command the demons to leave in the name of Jesus, it will leave because at the name of Jesus all knees must bow.

But if it is an angel that God assigned to block your way and you say I command you this spirit whoever you are, move out of the way.

He will ask you: in whose name?

You say, in the name of Jesus.

He will say, He is the One who asked me to stand here.

When God hands over somebody to enemies, there is no amount of prayer you can pray, the enemies will prevail; and this happens when you refuse to do the will of God.

Deuteronomy 28 verses 15 and 25, God saying, if you will not listen to Him; I you won’t do My will; He said, then, when you go against the enemy, you will be smitten before the enemies.

You go against the enemy one way; you will flee seven ways – that is what God said.

The first way God could relate to man spiritual wise – when we are talking about war – is that He can handover the fellow to the enemy.

The second way He could treat or relate to a man in war time to remain neutral and let you fight the battle yourself and see if you can win.

In order words, He won’t attack you but He won’t defend - you will see an example in Judges 16 verse 18 to 21.

When the hair of the head of Samson had been cut off and the enemies moved in, God did nothing.

It was not God who attacks Samson; it was not God who plucked out his eyes; God just remain neutral.

Now, this happens whenever you fail to hid God’s warnings.

Proverbs chapter 29 verse 1, the Bible says, he who is often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall perish suddenly and without remedy.

So, when God keeps on warning you; hey, get away from a life of sin; come over to My side and you say, mind Your business.

Well, He may decide to mind His business.

And if He remains neutral in your case, then you are finished.

I think I have told you before that my father told me that when a lion wakes up in the morning he prays only one prayer: God show me the animal I will eat today and leave the two of us alone - don’t help me, don’t help the animal, just show me - that is food for you and I will finish the rest.

If a devil ever prays a prayer, thank God he won’t pray; but, if he ever prays a prayer, he will say, show me the fellow I will destroy today and leave the two of us alone.

You see, the Almighty God said in Isaiah chapter 3 verses 10 and 11: He said, say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him.

But then, He said, say ye to the wicked, woe to the wicked.

If you refuse to come to the Almighty God;

If you refuse to surrender your life to Him;

If you are asking to mind His business while you are minding your own which some of my colleague used to say when I was in the University:

Some of them will say there is no God;

Some of them will say once upon a time there was God but is now dead.

Some of them said, whether there is God or not, is none of my concern: He is in heaven, I am on earth; let Him mind his own business in heaven while I mind my own on earth.

If you ask Him to mind His business, if He remains neutral, you are finished.

On the other hand, God can defend, He can arise to defend and when God arise to defend you, haa! then the enemies are finished.

He said in Isaiah chapter 41 verse 10 to 13, He said, don’t be afraid, I will help you.

Tell the fellow next to you, God will help me.

He said listen, I will strengthen you; I will help you: I will hold you by your right hand and say I will help you.

You see, all those who are incensed against you, they would be as nothing.

He said, you will even look at them and you won’t even find them.

When God decide to help you, you cannot lose a battle.

Like the special song we sang just some minutes ago, if you will help me, I cannot possibly fail.

The Almighty God will help somebody here tonight.

When He decides to help you the enemies are in trouble and this happen when you obey Him

Deuteronomy 28 verses 1 and 7, He said, if you will hearken diligently to the voice of the Lord your God to observe and to do all His commandment which I command you this day;

Oh, then, He said in verse 7, the enemies that come against you will be smitten before your face.

You are not the one who will fight them; God said, leave Me to them, I will deal with them.

He said, when they come against you one way, they will flee seven ways.

But the promise is for the children of God.

That promise is not for somebody who is living in sin.

You cannot continue in sin and expect grace to abound; God forbid.

So, from time to time I hear people singing: let God arise and His enemies will be scatter (according to Psalm 68 verse 1 to 3)

If God arises, definitely, His enemies will scatter.

But when I hear people singing the song, I tremble a little because some of the people who are singing the song are enemies of God themselves.

And tonight before will call on the Almighty God to arise, because He is going to arise tonight, if you are not yet one of His children; if you are not yet born again; if you are not absolutely sure that your sins are already forgiven; if you have not repented from your evil ways, before we ask God to arise, you better come and surrender your life to Him.

Come to Him in submission; let Him save your soul, let Him forgive your sins; become one of His children so that when He arises, it will be your enemy that will scatter not you.

I am going to count from one to ten, if you know you want to surrender your life to Jesus Christ before I say ten, come and stand before me.

The choice is yours: if you want to be on the side of God, come.

If you want Him to be against you, it is up to you.

I am counting now.

One, two, three,

And those of you in the old arena, you go to the altar; there are men of God there to attend to you. If you want to give your life to Jesus, just go towards the altar there, straight away.

And those of you in the various viewing centres all over the world, go ahead, go to the altar before and the Almighty God will be there to attend to you also.

And if you are watching us in the prison yard, just signify to the Almighty God even in the prison there that you are surrendering your life to Him and the prayer we are going to pray to God will touch you there and He will save your soul.

If you are watching in the hospital, even on the hospital bed, if you lift your hands up and surrender to God, He will heal you as well as save your soul.

So, if you are in any of the viewing centres, respond to this altar God and the prayer of salvation will avail for you.

Four,

And I have told you if you don’t want to clap don’t clap but if you want to clap do it very well.

Whatever you do for God you do it with all your mind.

Five, six, seven, eight, nine,

Okay, those of you who are already in the front and those of you who are on the way begin to cry to Jesus Christ: tell Him I don’t want to be Your enemy anymore, I have come to surrender my life to You, please, save my soul, have mercy on me; I have surrender to You today Lord and I will serve you for the rest of my life.

Talk to the Almighty God now.

And the rest of us let us stretch our hands towards our new brothers and sisters. Father, have mercy on me, save my soul and I will serve forever. Thank You Father.

Those of you on the way you have to hurry up now because I am about to pray.

Let us intercede for these people for another thirty seconds and then we will pray. Thank You Lord.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Saviour we want to say thank You for Your word; we want to thank You for the people who heard the word and decided they want to surrender to You; please, they have come to You now, receive them in Jesus’ name. Whatever sins they have committed in the past my Father and my God forgive today in Jesus’ name. Let Your blood wipe away all their sins in Jesus’ name. I am praying that as You saved their souls today, You will please write their names in the Book of Life in Jesus’ name; and the grace for them to be steadfast, never to go back into a world of sins, please give to them in Jesus’ name. And from now on anytime they cry unto You please answer them by fire.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Amen.

Those of you in front let me hear you shout hallelujah.

Now, I am rejoicing with you because by the grace of God from now on I will be praying for you.

So, I am going to need your names, your address and your prayer request.

There are counselors around you, either in front of you or behind you, they will give you a card which I want you to fill very quickly and then you return it back to them.

I promise you if you give me your names, give me your address, and your prayer request and I promise you I will be praying for you.

We will wait for some few minutes to let you finish filling the card before we proceed further.

Congratulations.

God bless you.

Thank you choir

Now, in every war there is always a turning point- the turning point could be for the better in which case victory will soon come.

If is it the other way, we know what that one means.

For the Christian a turning point discerns that victory is near – it comes when you know that when you know that you know that only God can give you victory.

Proverbs chapter 21 verse 31 says horses are prepared for the day of battle, but safety is of the Lord.

You know that there is victory ahead, the moment you realize that you cannot win on your own, the moment you realize that the arm of flesh will fail you, that your wisdom will fail you, that your connections will fail you; that your wealth, your experience will fail you, the day you realize beyond any doubts that victory that one has come from God, the battle turns.

The day you realize that God can defeat enemies on land (it does not matter how many they are)…

Numbers 16 from verse 28 to 34 – when some people ganged up against Moses and God ask the ground to open its mouth and swallow them and that God is still here today.

When you have enemies, some of them very highly placed; some of them have all the equipments to fight why you have none; …the moment you realize, no problem my God can fight enemies on land.

And He can fight enemies at sea because according to Mark chapter 4 verse 41 the wind and the sea obey Him.

So, if the enemy says he is a water spirit, he is maami-water, whatever, it does not matter; my God can defeat any enemy that is coming either by land or coming by sea.

And He can defeat enemies coming in the air:

According to Joshua chapter 10 verse 10 to 11- when enemies ganged up against Joshua and God began to rain bombs on the enemies, splitting their heads.

The day you know my God can fight any enemy: Land, Sea or Air, the tiled begins to turn.

As a result, when you know that it is God and God alone that can give me victory, when you have the opportunity to pray you will pray with all your heart.

When you still think there is a way out, there is somebody I can contact, there is Lawyer who can help me; there is a Politician who could use is position, there is Businessman who could make money available;

The moment you still think that victory can come through human sources the battle is still on.

But the moment you take your eyes from everybody and focus on God in prayer, then you can say victory ahead.

For example, Genesis 32 from verse 3 to 12, the Bible tells us: Jacob was going home and Esau is brother was coming to meet him with four hundred men and Jacob knew what that one meant; he means death is on the way because his brother swore the day he ran away from home.

He said, no problem, one day I will see you; you stole my blessing; we will meet again.

Jacob cried unto God, help me; have mercy on me, this man is coming to kill me.

And then, from verse 24 to 29, what was an ordinary casual prayer became a wrestling match…

You know I have seen the way many of us pray, we pray the prayer of the comfortable; we pray the prayer of those who say, well, if I pray and nothing happens, my Doctor is at home.

But when you have to pray a prayer based on the fact the Doctor as said there is nothing more I can do, prayer becomes wrestling.

Jacob cried to God – he wrestled with God all night.

And by Genesis 33 verse 1 to 4, by following morning when he met Esau, instead of death, it was a warmed welcome.

The brother ran, hugged him and both of them wept.

Instead of death, there was life.

Now, when you go to God in intense prayed, it is most likely that God will now speak to you because in that Genesis 32 verse 28, God spoke to Jacob and said, you have prevailed.

In the name that is above every other name somebody will prevail tonight.

When you pray earnestly; when you pray like a warrior not as a lady or gentleman as warrior, God will speak to you.

“Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.” Romans 8:33-34





If you have made Jesus Christ the Lord and Saviour of your life, you have been discharged and acquitted from any charge the devil may bring against you. The Bible calls the devil the accuser of the brethren (Rev. 12:10). His assignment is to ensure that he keeps you permanently under condemnation. He tells you how unworthy you are to even expect anything from God. He jumps on your shoulder to tell you how many things you have done wrong and so tells you to forget ever thinking you will receive any good thing from God.






But the TRUTH the devil will never tell you is that, yes in yourself you have nothing to your credit. However IN CHRIST there is no more condemnation. Our text today gives you an assurance that you are discharged and acquitted. Who can lay anything to your charge when God Himself has justified you already? God, the ultimate judge is the One that declared you discharged and acquitted, why then are you listening to the devil who is trying to intimidate you with your past. Your past is nothing but the past. It is already behind you, so don’t hold yourself down on it; arise, dust yourself and move on because God has great plans in store for you.




Jesus Christ is the very one that died for your mess and still continues to intercede for you. Another interesting thing to note is that God picks you up in your mess and turn you into a message, but only if you believe. The devil has lost you completely. You are free.

“Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” Romans 5:1-2
One of the greatest errors that the devil has used successfully to cage the believer is to make you feel that God is mad at you the moment you do something wrong. The devil had painted a picture of God standing with a sledgehammer ready to strike the moment you step out of line. But I have come to tell you that even though God hates sin, He loves sinners. So if you have never accepted Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour, you can today, His arms are opened to receive you.


If you have given your life to Christ, don’t fall into that region of condemnation. Remember, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. God is not mad at you. When you miss it, get up, dust yourself, repent and keep going. Contrary to popular opinion that God is in heaven watching to see when you will dare make a small mistake so that His hammer will drop on you and hit you hard so that you end up in hospital, I come to let you know that God is not at all mad at you.
The Bible still reads God is love (1 John 4:, John 3:16 “...God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” God does not know anything else than to love because He is love, He is disposed to giving to us. Whenever you see God, you will see Him giving good things.
Because you have believed in His precious gift to the world (Jesus Christ) you are justified by faith. It is just as if you have never sinned. Therefore you have access into His grace and you will rejoice with confident, expectation of nothing but glory, His goodness, best, excellence, riches, wealth and everything good. Stop expecting hammer and start expecting GOODNESS.

“For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.” Romans 5:17








The text today tells you that because you are now born again, you are authorized to reign in this life through Jesus Christ. This is good news. You are not going to reign in death, you are going to reign in life. Have you received Jesus Christ into your life as your personal Lord and Saviour? If yes, then you are born again to reign –not in future, not in life after death, but now. Therefore, I declare over your life that today marks the end of slavery to anything that confronts you in life in life.







There is a very popular saying: I am waiting on God. Child of God, you are not waiting on God to move, guess what? Heaven is waiting on you to rise up and take your place. Stop and think, what is it that has been reigning over you? Is it sin? The Bible says that sin shall not have dominion over you (Rom. 6:14). Is it sickness? The word of God is very clear it says that by His stripes you were healed (1Peter 2:24). Is it poverty? Beloved, He became poor that you might be rich (2 Cor. 8:4).







By the position of righteousness you have in Christ Jesus, you have the right to command any circumstances reigning over you to back off and expect it to be obeyed. Heaven is waiting on you to rise up and manifest who you are.

“A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.” Proverbs 17:22




How vitally important it is today for us to maintain a merry heart. There are many things released in the atmosphere to keep you sad and break your spirit. You will be surprised how many are suffering from sicknesses they never bargained for and even some have died because of their heart condition. Many people are working about today almost at the point of dropping dead because of the load they are carrying. They are so worried sick that no medication is working for them; if you are in this condition, I come to you with the best prescription you can ever have – THE WORD OF GOD. Look at the text above again – a merry heart doeth good like medicine. The Amplified version says it this way: A happy heart is good medicine and a cheerful mind works healing, but a broken spirit dries up the bones.





Having a merry heart is not a function of what you have in your bank account, but of whose you are. If Jesus Christ is the Lord of your life, then nothing is strong enough to weigh you down. Whether you choose to rejoice in the promises of God or get weighed down by the activities of the devil is up to you. It is a choice you have to make. Then that verse goes on to say when your spirit is broken it dries the bones, in other words a broken spirit breaks down your body with all kinds of sickness and diseases. Since I discovered this scripture, I refused to be sad no matter what, I choose to hold on and rejoice in the promises of God because at the end of the day, only the word of God will prevail. In the same way I challenge you to rise up and leap for joy and see Satan bow before you.

“For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” 2 Corinthians 5:21






I have really taken time to talk you for a few days on righteousness because if you get the concept of righteousness (right standing with God) right, every other thing will fall into place. When you get it right, you will not run helter-skelter in search of deliverance and breaking of generational curse. You will understand that you are a new creature – new specie of being that never existed before. It bears repetition, stop attempting to establish your own righteousness by keeping some laws and right conduct. You will be surprised how many people are trying to work at becoming more righteous. They beat up themselves whenever they do wrong and lose their joy. You must first realize that righteousness is not about right conduct but a gift from God through Jesus Christ. A gift is never earned, so all we need to do is to receive it.






We receive it through the cross. At the cross the great exchange took place. What we receive is excellent and not in any way inferior. You must stop every attempt to grade righteousness. It is in the same class whether in heaven or on earth. God gave it and it is perfect. Think of it – Jesus who knew no sin became sin for us. He knew no sin, did no sin, and in Him was no sin; but at the cross He received our sin and became sin for us. In the same way we who were sinners knew no righteousness, did no righteousness and in us was no righteousness; but at the cross we received His righteousness and became the righteousness of God in Christ.






It was at the cross that the divine exchange took place; He took our place so that we could take His place. He became sin for us though He did not deserve it so that we might be made His righteousness though we did not deserve it. What an exchange, Hallelujah!

“For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” 2 Corinthians 5:21
Righteousness is right standing with God without any sense of sin, condemnation or inferiority. That was what you were made the moment you received the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour. You did not work for it; it was bestowed on you. You are now righteous; you do not do anything to become righteous. It is a gift from God to you so that you can reign over the circumstances of life Romans 5:17. You are qualified to enter Gods presence and live your life as if sin never existed.
You need to meditate over this fact until you become one with it, because in it lies your victory. All that you will ever attain depends on your understanding of this fact. You were made righteous, not by works but by faith. You have absolutely nothing to do about it.
Jesus is our perfect example. He never lived His life here with the sense of sin. Sin makes a coward out of a believer; it causes you to drop your shoulders and rob you of your boldness. The Apostle Paul understanding the effect of sin consciousness said “There is therefore Now No Condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus” – Romans 8:1. Notice the word “NOW”; it implies that you were condemned before and doomed for hell, but the moment you accepted Jesus into your life, the course of things changed. NOW, there is no condemnation for you. By being the righteousness of God, you have the right to pray and expect an answer. Rejoice that the sin problem has been dealt with by righteousness. Declare it that you are righteous.

“Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.” 1 Corinthians 15:34
It is sad to know that so many believers are more sin conscious than Righteousness conscious. Sin consciousness will keep you in perpetual bondage of sin and you will never be free. As long as the devil keeps you in remembrance of your sins, he will keep you in the bondage of sin. The Bible declares that sin shall not have dominion over you because you are not under the law but under grace – Romans 6:14. You are the righteousness of God in Christ- 2 Corinthians 5:21.
Now that you have the gift of righteousness and you are meant to reign in life’s challenges; you can never reign in the affairs of life as long as you keep seeing yourself under the control of sin. That is why the Apostle John wrote in 1 John 3:9- He that is born of God cannot sin, why? Because you are the righteousness of God and you do not have the seed of sin.
Today’s text says you must Awake to righteousness and sin not. In other words put on the mentality of righteousness. You must agree that you always have a right standing with God and so, cannot sin. The sin issue was permanently put to rest by righteousness: Righteousness that God gives to you at new birth over rules the power of sin. Receive it today and walk in the consciousness of sin.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17







For the last couple of days, I have been dwelling on the your status in Chris, not because there is nothing else to say, but I want you to meditate on it and become one with it. If you truly understand your place in Christ, many of your prayer points will change because you will realise that the things that you are asking for has been given unto you over 2000 years ago.








For me the two most powerful words in the Bible are “IN CHRIST”. Notice what the text says “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new”. Acts 17:28 says “For IN HIM we live, and move, and have our being” In other words, you are made a new creation in Christ. Notice 2 Cor. 5:21 – we are made the righteousness of God IN HIM (Christ). Notice Ephesians 1:3 – we are blessed with all spiritual blessings IN CHRIST.







Until you begin to see yourself In Christ, there is no victory for you at all. The problem the believers have over the years is to confront their challenges themselves, in their own power and ability. Beloved, you cannot do it, so stop trying; Jesus Christ already did it for you.








He wants you to see yourself in Him. Look at it this way: The seed inside a mango fruit goes where the mango fruit goes. Take the fruit to Asia, America, Europe, the seed goes there also. In the same way when Jesus defeated the devil, you in Him defeated the devil. When Jesus declared that He had all powers, when Jesus approaches the throne of God without condemnation and inferiority, you also do because you are in Him; when Jesus approaches the throne without condemnation and inferiority, He is doing it for you. Your case is settled. All you need do is to enforce Satan’s defeat with this understanding.






Celebrate the fact that you have been IN CHRIST. No more defeats; look for the scriptures that have IN CHRIST, IN HIM, BY CHRIST etc. for meditation.

“He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: He that cometh from heaven is above all” John 3:31





The text says that He that is from above is above all. The “He” refers to Jesus, He came from above and so He is above all. But since we are born again it refers to us also. When you gave your life to Christ, you entered into a relationship that catapulted you from the realm of failure to the realm of success for where Jesus is, is where you are also, because you are in Christ.






Jesus said except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God (John 3:3). Also except a man be born of the water and the Spirit he cannot enter the Kingdom of God (John 3:5). By the new Birth every believer is In Christ. The Bible goes on to say that if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation (2 Cor. 5:17). Yes your physical body does not change, but the real you does, your real you, your spirit man becomes new.






If you are in Christ, you are automatically where He is. He is above Satan and his cohorts. He is above sin, sickness, disease, poverty, death, depression, frustration, deception etc. that means that you, the believer, is above them too. Put on that mentality and rise above Satan’s intimidation and deception. You are born from above and so you are above all. Declare it three times to yourself with your eyes closed: “I am from above and so I am above all” Paint the imagination; see yourself above that challenge and it will come to pass – you have what you see.





Go out today with that understanding and rejoice.

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:23
The worst thing the devil did to man was to reduce man made in the image and likeness of God to the lowest common denominator. How did that happen? It was when Adam, the representative of man disobeyed God and sin entered. Man made in the GLORY was reduced to shame, defeat, disgrace and reproach. From that moment on, everyone born into this world was born in sin. All you need to do to be a sinner is to be born. We were all in Adam, our representative man.
Today’s text makes it abundantly clear. It says: All have sinned and come short of the glory of God. You don’t have to do anything to be a sinner. The fact that you are a product of a man and a woman makes you a sinner. This would have been a hopeless case if it had ended here, but thank God it did not. Thank God that the story did not end on a sad note. Jesus our last Adam (1 Cor.15:45) came and removed this curse of sin hanging on man and restored us back to our original glory.
What an awesome blessing and all this for “NO CHARGE”. All you need to do to enter into this glory is to acknowledge your sin and helplessness and invite Jesus into your life (Rom. 10:9-10). Once you do that willingly with all your heart, you enter that glory. This glory can be yours today.
If you have already made Jesus the Lord of your life, I congratulate you. But do not stop at that, you need to walk in the consciousness of who you are. Don’t let he devil cheat you with ignorance – get into the word of God and find out all that God says about you and walk in it.

“Then said Jesus unto them again, verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.” John 10:7, 11







Throughout the Bible, particularly the New Testament, God used things that we can readily identify with to speak to us the deep mystery of the Kingdom. Jesus used the everyday things around to teach very deep truths that every believer ought to know. He knew that if you can just catch a glimpse of what He is saying, you will be more effective ministers of the Gospel.







Look at our text again; do you understand the full import of what Jesus was saying? If you truly understand our text for today, you will have no reason to fear anything in life. Let me break it down a little - The sheepfold is a place where the sheep are kept safe. There is an opening into this place through which the sheep is herded in. The good shepherd then sleeps right across that opening in the night. The implication is whenever danger comes the enemy had to first contend with the shepherd before entering the sheepfold. Now you can understand it better when Jesus says He is the door to the sheepfold and the good shepherd.









This means that the good shepherd guarantees the supply of all my needs and he, who is the door to the sheepfold, also guarantees my protection from any evil. Hallelujah! So I can say without any shadow of fear that nothing shall by any means hurt me. The same is true for you, if only you will believe. Beloved, you have no reason to fear.

“In whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace;” Ephesians 5:1






Everything we need has been paid for in full by Jesus. However, you cannot fold your hands and expect it to fall on you like a bag of cherries. If you must get the same result like your Father God, you must imitate Him. To imitate Him means to follow His example in everything you do. If you are a dear child of God, you must make it a lifestyle to follow His example knowing that you will not be misled.







Jesus was able to succeed because He spent most of His time finding out what the Father was doing and then went ahead to do the same. John 5:17 “But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.” John 5:19 “Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He seeth the Father do: for what things soever He doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.”






Your struggle in life will be over if you can just imitate your Father, find out what His will is on everything in the Bible and do it. Let me suggest an area you can start from; I suggest you start from what you say. Don’t say anything contrary to what your Father God has said, no matter how challenging your situation is. No matter the doctors report, stand on the word that says by His stripes I am healed and your body will amend, because everything about you will gravitate towards the word of God that you hold on to. Please note that the word of God is not a magic wand; you don’t do it once and get result, you must be consistent about it. Let the devil know that you are not about to give up and if any should give up, it should be the devil.





“Watch what God does, and then you do it, like children who learn proper behaviour from their parents” Eph. 5:1

“In whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;” Ephesians 1:7





The word Redemption means Salvation, rescue, deliverance, repurchase, buyback, the act of redeeming or the state of being redeemed, a repossession or repurchase, a release or rescue as from bondage of sin, the payment or fulfilment of an obligation or pledge, the exchange or conversion.





The fall of man handed man over to Satan and everything he has to offer - sin, sickness, poverty, headache, lust, death etc. So with sin came everything that related to death because the wages of sin is death. The good news is that it did not end there. If it did, man would have been forever damned and doomed, but the scriptures go on to tell us that the free gift, which we received through our redemption, is righteousness – rescue, deliverance, right standing. Thank God for the cross; this gift is free – totally and completely free. You don’t have to pay anything for your salvation – Jesus paid it all. All you have to do is to receive this awesome gift from God.





Our text declares that in Christ we have our redemption through His blood the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace. In other words, we have been bought back from Satan and all that he has to offer mankind. In view of the full price paid for your redemption, you must reject anything negative, anything contrary to the good things of life that are yours by the reason of redemption.




You must open your mouth and declare to the devil that you cannot accept his offer, let him know that everything he has to offer has been paid for in the redemption. Stand your ground and walk in the fullness of your redemption.

“Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.” 11Corinthians 2:14





I know that the normal thing to do is to celebrate when the battle is over but notice that today’s text suggests the opposite. The text is an assurance to us that the outcome of your battle is already fixed. “Thanks be unto God which ALWAYS causeth us to triumph in Christ” The implication is that we always come out the winner in all our battles.





Is it a battle you are facing in your finance, family, marriage, business, health, academics or ministry? Whatever it is, you are already triumphant. Can you imagine the joy with which you will go into the ring to fight or go into an exam hall to write your exam knowing the outcome?





When you know the outcome of the match, you do not fret. You sit calm and well collected in your corner knowing that the result is sure. Now, those who don’t know may be fretting. In fact your calmness may even insult them because they do not know what you know. But beloved, because of what you know, you are resting secured because the victory is sure.





AS long as you are In Christ, you are already a winner. So you can begin your celebration today. Declare it to yourself. I WIN always. I am not a loser. I have no material for failure in me. I am already wired for success all the time. Rejoice about it today.

“Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand”
Psalm 37:24





One of the benefits of the new creation is that there is nothing like a fatal fall for you. Yes, the banana pills of life may have tripped you on your pathway to attaining God’s divine purpose; but that does not mark your end. You may have fallen over and over again, that still does not spell your doom. Failure is not failing once or twice; failing is falling and refusing to get up.






No matter how bad the fall may have been, I have good news for you: that is not the end of your life. One event in your life cannot become a sum total of your life. An event in your life is not you. Our text today assures you that there is a possibility of falling but that is not your burial ground. “...he shall not be utterly cast down for the Lord upholdeth him with His hands” Hallelujah! What an assurance.





Have you fallen? Have you missed your steps and crashed to the ground? No matter how bad it is I command you in the name of the Lord to rise up today, because you are still a child of God who has been wired to succeed in life.





What you have gone through or still going through is only an experience that you must not allow to stop you. Claim the blood over your life, blow your nose, dry your tears and keep moving. You will get there in Jesus’ name.

“He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.”
Psalm 107:20
God had already gone ahead of you to send His word for every challenge you can ever have. God does not react to situations. It is necessary for you to understand a little bit of the workings of God. God does not react – He does not speak because of what the devil has or is doing. Remember, He is the Alpha, that means before the devil started playing any of his pranks, He was there. He is also the Omega, which implies that after the devil has finished his gymnastics, He is there. So He spoke the word even before the challenge came, your part therefore is to receive the word and stand on it.
Take for instance your healing. God knew the devil has no other assignment but to steal, kill and destroy, so He spoke the word of healing ever before the sickness came. He announced to you that by His stripes you were healed 1 Peter 2:24. Because He knows the devil will want to intimidate you with fear, He gave you 365 (Three Hundred and Fifty Five) “fear Not” one for each day in the Bible. He also went ahead to tell you in 11 Timothy 1:7 that “you are not given the Spirit of fear but of power, and of love and of a sound mind”. In 3 John 2 He said that His wish is your prosperity. Psalm 35:27 – He has pleasure in the prosperity of His servants.
I can go on and on and list the various promises of God, but if you take time to study the word, you will notice that there is already a word sent for all the challenges you may ever face in life.
Take the responsibility to search for it in the Bible, speak it to yourself and believe it in other to receive the benefit.
