Get To Know Your "Features" · Thursday, August 1st

Pastor Chris

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,
longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness,
temperance: against such there is no law (Galatians
5:22-23).

The attraction of a device is in its
features. For example, in choosing a new
phone handset, you want to know what its
features are. You want to know all that
device is capable of. In your journey of
life in Christ, some of the things to be
acquainted with are your "features"; what
do you have in you? What are the features of this new
life you’ve received in your spirit?

You’re God’s handiwork, His excellently crafted
masterpiece (Ephesians 2:10), and there’re specific
features that are peculiar to you, such as love, joy,
peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
meekness, and temperance. These are the "features" of
your recreated human spirit. The fact that they’re
described as "fruits" in our opening verse lets you know
they’re things you can develop, and grow in your life! You
can multiply their power and usefulness.
Many people never care about the features of their
devices; they only use the most basic ones, and
therefore don’t enjoy the device to its full potential.
For example, the love of God is in you; put it to work at
all times. Love is victorious over all circumstances;
therefore, walk in love, and you’ll always win, because
love-power is the greatest power there is.

There’re more features in you; study the Word to know
them and put them to work. 1 John 4:4 for example says,
"Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them:
because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the
world." This means you’re victorious over the world, and
you’ve overcome the wicked one and the evil spirits of
darkness; including all the negativities of life, because
the Greater One lives in you.
As you study the Word, you’ll discover the magnificent
qualities of your recreated human spirit. We can live an
extraordinary life through the knowledge of Him who
has called us to glory and excellence.

Confession
I know who I am. I’m a Christ-in-you person! I’m
conscious of the inherent features of the God-life in
my spirit! I’ve been fashioned for glory, beauty and
excellence; I bring forth good things today, because
my heart is a treasury of blessings.

No Culture Against Love · Wednesday, July 31st ·

Pastor Chris

Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is
the fulfilling of the law (Romans 13:10).

All people are the same when it comes to
love; they feel and react to love the same
way. Love changes them. It brings
everybody to the same plane, irrespective
of the culture. There’s no culture against
love.

1 Corinthians 13:13 says, "And now abideth faith, hope,
charity, these three; but the greatest of these is love."
If you walk in love towards people, they’ll be compelled
sooner or later to respond the same way, because love
begets love. When you understand the love of God,
you’d realize that it’s the greatest power in the universe.
It goes beyond cultural divides, religious barriers, ethnic
differences, and social stratifications. The love of God
can reach anyone, and melt the hardest heart.

Train yourself to walk in love. It’s a conscious choice
you have to make; it’ll transform your life. Tell yourself,
"I’m going to walk in love, no matter what." In John
13:34, Jesus said, "A new commandment I give unto you,
that ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye
also love one another." There shouldn’t be anybody you
can’t love. The love-way is the way of victory;
therefore, you must love everyone genuinely, even when
their actions aren’t deserving of love.

The Bible tells us that God demonstrated His love for
us, while we were undeserving of kindness: "But God
commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were
yet sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:cool.
Therefore, as His beloved children, we’re to love like
Him: "Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear
children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us,
and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice
to God for a sweet-smelling savour" (Ephesians 5:1-2).

To walk with God you’d have to love like Him. 1 John
4:7-8 says, "Beloved, let us love one another: for love is
of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and
knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for
God is love." Let your language be consistent with the
God-kind of love; let your life be the out-shining of His
love.

Confession
My life is the expression of the love of the Father in
my heart in Christ Jesus. I abound in love today,
towards those in my world, and beyond, and declare
that my heart is established blameless and in holiness
before the Lord, for His love is perfected in me, in
Jesus’ Name.

His Goodness And Love · Tuesday, July 30th

Pastor Anita

…Pray for them which despitefully use you, and
persecute you; that ye may be the children of your
Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to
rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on
the just and on the unjust (Matthew 5:44-45).

Someone once said "It appears God, in His
fierce anger against those who are not
saved, brings painful experiences such as
poverty and sickness on them as
judgement." But that’s a wrong perception
of God. God is gracious and kind, both to
the righteous and the unrighteous. His
nature is goodness and love. He never buffets people
with pain and suffering; rather, He always seeks to heal,
save, and bless. He’s the healer, restorer, and mender
of broken hearts, broken lives, and broken relationships.
Several accounts in the Bible readily buttress this. The
story of blind Bartimaeus is a case in point. The Bible
says he was born blind; and not satisfied with his
condition, he cried out to Jesus for help, and the Lord
restored his sight (Mark 10:51-52).

We find a similar example when Jesus and His disciples
encountered another man who was born blind. His
disciples asked Him, "Master, who did sin, this man, or his
parents, that he was born blind?" (John 9:2). The Lord
responded, "...Neither hath this man sinned, nor his
parents: but that the works of God may be made
manifest in him, I must work the works of him that sent
me, while it is day…" (John 9:3-4). The devil’s work was
manifested in the man’s life through the blindness, but
Jesus manifested God’s goodness and love by healing
him.

Perhaps you’ve been experiencing challenges on your
job, business, family, academics, or even in your health;
you can take advantage of God’s love even now. The
first thing you should know is that affliction, of any
kind, isn’t the will of God for you. He already did
everything necessary for you to live in victory, divine
health, prosperity, righteousness and dominion. Just say
yes to His Word; acknowledge and walk in the light of
what He’s already done for you in Christ Jesus.

Prayer
Dear heavenly Father, I bow to you in worship for
your love, compassion and grace, which are manifested
today in my life and in the lives of many around the
world, through your works of healing, blessings, and
miracles in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Proclaim Liberty! · Monday, July 29th ·

Pastor Chris

The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the
LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto
the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the
brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives,
and the opening of the prison to them that are bound
(Isaiah 61:1).

After His death on the Cross, the Lord Jesus descended to hell, defeated Satan and the cohorts of hell and arose on the third day victoriously. He ascended into heaven. Now, the Bible says, "... When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men" (Ephesians 4:cool. Jesus broke the chains of
darkness, and took from them the authority to put
anyone in captivity.
Satan can legally hold no one in captivity anymore. The
bondage is over! That’s why He said, "...Go ye into all the
world, and preach the gospel to every creature" (Mark
16:15); that means to all of creation. Romans 8:19 says,
"For the earnest expectation of the creation waiteth
for the manifestation of the sons of God."

The whole of creation awaits the manifestation, not of
Jesus, but of the sons of God—that’s us, to release
them from the bondage of corruption. How do we
release them? By proclaiming liberty; by announcing to
them that they’re free and that captivity has been taken
captive. This announcement is what the whole creation
has been waiting for.
Romans 8:22 says, "For we know that the whole creation
groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now." But
it’s time for them to know that solution has come in
Christ Jesus. You’re the answer to their cry for help.

You’ve been sent as a light to the nations. Everywhere
you go, the light of God shines, and people come out of
the darkness. The Bible says, the savour of Christ’s
knowledge: the beauty, glory and power of His
righteousness is made manifest by us in every place.
You’re His mouthpiece; His ambassador of the Gospel, to
boldly proclaim liberty to the oppressed. And as you do,
chains will be destroyed, and the hearts of the
disobedient will be turned to the wisdom of the
righteous.

Prayer
Dear Father, thank you for the life of victory and
dominion I have in Christ Jesus; thank you for giving
me the most esteemed responsibility of ministering
the Gospel to the lost, turning their hearts from sin
unto righteousness. You’ve made me a light to the
nations, and I shine brightly in the midst of a crooked
and perverse generation, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

A Life Of Success · Sunday, July 28th

Pastor Chris

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that
shineth more and more unto the perfect day (Proverbs
4:18).

God desires that you consistently make
progress and excel from glory to glory. He
expects you to be increasingly fruitful and
productive in all your endeavours. Jesus
said in John 15:1-8 (NLT), "I am the true
grapevine, and my Father is the gardener.

He cuts off every branch of mine that
doesn’t produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that
do bear fruit so they will produce even more...When you
produce much fruit, you are my true disciples. This
brings great glory to my Father." If you’re already
successful and productive, the Lord prunes you to be
even more productive.

You don’t have to wait until you’re old to know whether
or not you’re a success. Success is measured at
different stages of your life. Solomon was a young man
when God made him a success. If you’re conscious of
success at the level where you are today, that
consciousness will take you to a higher level of success
tomorrow.

Realize that you’re in the world as an agent of change;
those you work with or relate to should find you
indispensable. Your boss and those you work with should
be able to depend on you for excellent delivery. When
projects are committed to you, see to it that they’re
executed in perfection. Let those around you consider
you central to their own success.

Cultivate an uncompromising attitude of success; never
make excuses for failure. Keep away from the mundane,
and instil in yourself a culture of excellence and
perfection. The success-mentality gets you excited
everyday about life, and the opportunity to confront
life’s challenges and win!
Produce results; win everyday. Be happy and ready to
solve problems, answer questions, and be a blessing to
your world; that’s the life of success to which you’ve
been called.

Confession
I’m a success; and my path is as the shining light,
which shines brighter and brighter unto the perfect
day. I’m making progress from glory to glory, bringing
forth abundant fruits unto God in righteousness, in
Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Stir Up Faith From Within · Saturday, July 27th ·

Pastor Anita

But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most
holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost (Jude 1:20).
If you’re in Christ, there’s nothing in the
world to fear. Jesus already overcame the
world and its system for you. When you
face difficult situations in your life, don’t
despair; for you’re not helpless. It’s a fight
of faith, and you have spiritual weapons at
your disposal to launch out in the
offensive.

One of such weapons is singing: singing songs of faith.
Ephesians 5:18-19 says, "And be not drunk with wine,
wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; Speaking
to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs,
singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord."
When you face challenges, shut your door and keep
singing, until faith is stirred in your spirit. Sing with the
spirit, and sing with the understanding also (1 Corinthians
14:15).

Then, just like the prophet Ezekiel, the Spirit will stir
you up, and set you upon your feet (Ezekiel 2:2); you’d
know at that moment that the Lord is standing tall in
you. He’ll stir up words in you like: "No weapon
fashioned against you shall prosper." You’ll hear Him tell
you, "Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome
them: because greater is he that’s in you, than he that is
in the world" (1 John 4:4). Then you take it up from
there and say, "Yes, Lord! I have overcome them, in the
Name of Jesus Christ!" Right after that, pray in tongues
fervently.

You can stir up faith from within you today, and the
business that was dead will be revived. The finances that
were down will suddenly receive a supernatural boost!
The marriage that was crumbling will be restored! All
these can happen within a flash by the power of the
Holy Spirit, if you’d act on the Word today.

Confession
I refuse to fear, because I’m born of God and I have
overcome the world. Greater is He that’s in me than
he that’s in the world. My faith is alive, and as I put
it to work today, it prevails, in the Name of Jesus.
Amen.

You Have Overcome The World · Friday, July 26th ·

Pastor Chris

And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon,
and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of
nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves
roaring; Men’s hearts failing them for fear…(Luke
21:25-26).

The events we see in the world today are
indications that these are difficult times.
Many are disturbed, distraught, and
perplexed about their health, finances,
jobs, and businesses. Though the
Scriptures declare that perilous times will
come upon the earth, the believer is
enjoined not to fear: "… In the world you shall have
tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be
of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain,
undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have
deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it
for you.]" (John 16:33 AMP).

You’re not of this world! God has separated you from
the world, and given you a life that’s beyond this world;
a life of faith and victory through the Word. Your faith
is the victory that overcomes the world. You’re more
than a conqueror. Greater is He that is in you, than he
that is in the world. God has given you a light—His Word
—with which to walk through the darkness.
You’ll live victoriously and triumphantly above sickness,
disease, inflation and terror as you walk in God’s Word.

His power is available in His Word; and you can put that
power to work to produce results. It therefore doesn’t
matter the extent of the darkness or hardship in the
world today; they are opportunities for you to shine and
manifest the glory of God. Isaiah 60:2 says, "For,
behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross
darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee,
and his glory shall be seen upon thee." Job 22:29 says,
"When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is
lifting up…."
There’s lifting up for you in Christ; so cheer up, for
Christ in you is your hope of glory. Hold your head up
high and declare, "Christ in me, is my victory over the
world."

Confession
My faith is the victory that overcomes the world.
Christ in me is my hope of a triumphant and glorious
today, and an excellent future; my life is secure in
Him who causes all things to work together for my
good!

The Power That Works In You · Thursday, July 25th

Pastor Chris

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly
above all that we ask or think, according to the power
that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church
by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without
end. Amen (Ephesians 3:20-21).

What an inspiring thought revealed to us in
our theme verse! It says "Now unto him
that is able to do exceeding abundantly
above all that we ask or think, according
to the power that worketh in us…." It
didn’t say "…according to the power that
worketh in heaven." This explains that you
have a role in the operations of the miraculous in your
life. The glory of God is manifested in your life
according to the power that works in you.

Even though God, in His sovereignty, can cause certain
things to happen for you, He doesn’t want to work
outside of you. Some Christians often feel discouraged
and frustrated because they’re "praying to God to do
something for them," yet to no avail. The issue isn’t with
God; they’re the ones to activate the power of God in
them, to bring about the desired changes.

In Paul’s epistle to the Philippians, we read of his
personal testimony to this effect; he understood that
the ability to do the supernatural wasn’t rested in
heaven but within him. By the Spirit he said, "I can do all
things through Christ which strengtheneth me." Notice
that he didn’t say "We can do all things through Christ
which strengtheneth us"; rather, this was his personal
testimony. What a mentality! Paul couldn’t think failure,
defeat or impossibilities; he knew the ability of the
Spirit had been granted him to achieve supernatural
results, and he spoke accordingly.

Become conscious that God lives in you in His fullness,
which means all His power and eternal might are
domiciled in your spirit. How do you activate that power
to work for you? It’s by consciously meditating on the
Word, and speaking in tongues. You can bring that power
to bear today on anything, or any area of your life
.
Prayer
Dear Father, I thank you for your power that fills me
through and through. I can do all things through
Christ who energizes me from within! I’m prepped for
your glory today, being conscious of the supernatural
ability of the Spirit that’s at work in me mightily, in
Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Born With Wealth Untold · Wednesday, July 24th ·

Pastor Anita

Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are
yours (1 Corinthians 3:21).

Riches, wealth, and honour come from God
(1 Chronicles 29:12). He gave these to
Abraham and his seed, and Galatians 3:16
lets us know that Christ is the Seed of
Abraham: "Now to Abraham and his seed
were the promises made. He saith not, And
to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to
thy seed, which is Christ." Christ inherited all the
blessings of Abraham, and if you belong to Christ, you’re
Abraham’s seed, and all the promises that were made to
Christ belong to you. "And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye
Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the
promise" (Galatians 3:29).

Now, you shouldn’t ask God to make you rich. He doesn’t
need to, because you were born the very heir of all the
riches and wealth He could ever give, when you were
born again. Not only were you born with wealth untold,
He gave you the power to get wealth. What you need
now is to know the Word of God to chart your course.
You can prosper at any level of life and career.
Irrespective of your job description, business, country
or state, you can be prosperous through Christ.

Don’t let the things people say about the economy shake
you. The wealth of this world isn’t reducing. Money is
man-made, and it doesn’t determine your wealth. Your
wealth will determine how much money is available to
you, because money gravitates to men and women of
wealth. Isaiah 60:11 says, "Therefore thy gates shall be
open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night;
that men may bring unto thee the forces of the
Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought."

Confession
I’m an offspring of the Most High, possessor of
heaven and earth, and I’m the seed of Abraham, heir
of the world. My prosperity is unlimited, for I was
born with wealth untold. I lay up gold as dust, and
the riches of the nations gravitate to me. Halleluiah!

Submit To His Righteousness · Tuesday, July 23rd ·

Pastor Chris

Brethren, my heart’s desire, and prayer to God for
Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them
record that they have a zeal of God, but not
according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of
God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their
own righteousness, have not submitted themselves
unto the righteousness of God (Romans 10:1-3).
Isaiah 64:6 tells us that man’s
righteousness: his own thought-out ways
of trying to serve and please God, are as
filthy rags. There’s no use having
confidence in your so-called good works,
to answer for you before God.

This was the dilemma of the children of Israel, which
the Apostle Paul decried in our opening text. Though
they were zealous for God and engaged in all forms of
religious devotions, purifications, oblations, etc., they
erred in three distinct ways in their pursuit of
righteousness. First, they were ignorant of God’s
righteousness, secondly, they went about to establish
their own righteousness, and thirdly, they didn’t submit
themselves to the righteousness of God.

The third point gives an indication of God’s expectation:
we’re to submit to His righteousness, because
righteousness isn’t something you attain by your own
works; it’s a gift from God. Romans 5:17 says, "…they
which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of
righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ."
The requirement to attain the righteousness of God is
simply to believe in Jesus Christ with all your heart and
receive the gift of eternal life. That’s why it’s called
righteousness by faith.

Philippians 3:8-9 tells us to embrace this righteousness
which is through the faith of Christ Jesus: "…that I may
win Christ, and be found in him, not having mine own
righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is
through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of
God by faith." This righteousness produces in you the
rightness of God, such that by instinct you know what is
right, and are able to live blameless before God. You
didn’t work to attain it, yet it works in you, having been
imparted to your spirit as a gift.

Confession
The righteousness of God has been imparted to my
spirit, therefore I have the ability to do right, and
live joyfully without blame be fore the Father, for
His righteousness in me gives me right standing with
Him, and superiority over Satan and the demons of
darkness.

"Phronesis" Is A Force · Monday, July 22nd

And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding

sand that is on the sea shore (1 Kings 4:29).

The word translated "wisdom" above is the
Greek "phronesis" and it’s a force that
controls you. It’s a spiritual elixir that
locates you within the framework of God’s
will, beyond your natural understanding,
causing you to do God’s things God’s way, in
God’s time for God’s purpose! It’s also a
mind-set; an excellent mind-set that causes you to think
in a certain way and to say the right things in the right
way at the right time for the right purpose in the right
place.

This was the wisdom Solomon received from the Lord
that caused him to excel in good judgment, so much so
that the Bible says, "…there came of all people to hear
the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth,
which had heard of his wisdom" (1Kings 4:34). God gave
Solomon an extraordinary amplitude of comprehension;
he had practical wisdom.
"Phronesis" propels you to make accurate choices, sound
judgments and decisions, and to do things right the first
time. You can develop "phronesis" through studying and
meditating on the Word of God and through praying in
the Holy Ghost—speaking in tongues. "O, but I thought
the Word says Christ has been made unto us wisdom
from God?" you might ask.

Yes. But that wisdom is "sophia" (Greek) which means
theoretical wisdom, or insight into reality; it means all
the collective understanding of all things. There’s also a
third kind of wisdom called "sunesis"; this is critical
wisdom; the ability to understand concepts and see
relationships between them. It suggests a quickness of
apprehension; the penetrating consideration which
precedes actions. Whereas, "phronesis" is practical
wisdom; it’s a force that makes you do and say the right
things before you even think.

God gives you "sophia"—insight into reality, so that you
can have "sunesis"—an understanding, for the purpose
of developing in you "phronesis"; a mind-set for a
successful and extraordinary life.

Prayer

Dear Father, I thank you for your Word that imparts
wisdom to my spirit, and gives me a mind-set for
success, victory and dominion. I deal excellently in all
my affairs today, and make accurate judgments and
decisions because of your wisdom that propels me
from within, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Proclaim The Word Of Faith · Sunday, July 21st

Pastor Anita

Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he
saveth them out of their distresses. He sent his
word, and healed them, and delivered them from
their destructions (Psalm 107:19-20).

Someone once exclaimed out of
frustration, "I’ve been praying to God to
help me out of my situation, but nothing
has changed!" What he didn’t realize was
that it wasn’t God’s responsibility, but his’
to effect a change in that situation by
proclaiming the Word of faith. God’s
responsibility is to send you His Word; His Word is the
ingredient you require for change. Our opening text
says, "...He sent his word, and healed them, and
delivered them from their destructions."

God saves, heals, transforms and delivers through His
Word, and His Word is dependable; you can apply it to
every circumstance of life. No matter how seemingly
hopeless your condition may look, proclaim the Word in
faith, you’d have a miracle. Even if you wanted things to
go from good to better or better to best, God’s Word
will make it happen. Hebrews 4:12 (AMP) says, "For the
Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making
it active, operative, energizing and effective]…."

The Word has inherent power; when you receive it into
you and speak it forth in faith, it becomes the creative
and effectual word, producing for you a harvest of what
it says. The Word in your mouth is God talking, and it
changes things. Create your victorious life with your
faith-filled words.

Confession
I’m confident in the ability of God’s Word to prevail
and produce in me the fruit of what it says;
therefore I speak the Word with boldness today,
knowing that my prosperity is by the Word. I’m like a
tree by the streams, bearing fruits unto
righteousness, because I live by the Word

Change The Order · Saturday, July 20th
Pastor Chris

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye
transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye
may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and
perfect, will of God (Romans 12:2).

From time to time, it’s important to review
the way things are going with you and
determine the areas in which you need to
make changes. Many keep doing the same
things, and expect a different result;
that’s not going to work. You’d need to
employ new ideas; bring in something new.
If you want a different result from what you’re
experiencing right now, you have to review things and
make the necessary changes. Begin with changing your
way of thinking. Perhaps at work, you’ve been noted for
not being so diligent, and now you want a change. First,
you’d have to change your attitude, and approach your
work with a new mind-set. Start practicing getting to
work early to gain time, and then learn to sit down and
finish your work within the stipulated time frame, and
excellently too. Learning to be ahead on your work, and finishing early, will give you time to review your work and ensure perfection. Do this consistently and soon enough, you’d begin to receive sterling recommendations and
promotions from your bosses.

Maybe you’ve always desired to study the Word and
pray more effectively; that won’t happen until you take
the right and necessary steps. You can start by being
more diligent with your study of the Rhapsody of
Realities devotional, and meticulously going through the
scripture references and the daily scripture reading.
Also, get the book "How To Pray Effectively Volume 1"
and study it from cover to cover (you can order a copy
at www.christembassyonlinestore.org). It will help
position you for a more vibrant and exciting study and
prayer life.

Right now, list out areas where you need to make
definite changes, and consciously write out the new
steps you’re going to take to effect those changes, and
then go for it! Make this part of your personal
development project for the quarter, or the rest of the
year, and watch your life grow for the best.

Prayer

Dear Father, I thank you for your Spirit who guides
me to make the right and necessary changes required
for my next level of success and promotion in life.
Through your Word, wisdom is granted me to function
excellently, and I live a fruitful and effective life in
righteousness, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
