TOPIC: Prosper

Deuteronomy 28:13 NKJV‬
[13] And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them.

*Message*

You have been empowered by God to prosper. The anointing of God upon your life via His gift of the Holy Spirit can be maximized for your prosperity, where you flourish on all sides and in all things. The blessings of God are all yours in Christ Jesus, and they are part of His strategies to ensure you live a quality life that moves into eternity.

*God is always very deliberate about our lives as His children. He has purposefully and deliberately anointed each one of us to make us the head and not the tail, to ensure we flourish above only and never be found on the cadre of losers. God is not only interested in your spiritual growth alone, but He is also purposeful about your progress in other important areas of life - financial, economic, etc.*

So, you discover that when you engage the bible, you are not only engaging a spiritual book but also a life book. God's word contains wise and divine principles that can empower you financially and economically too. As you prosper spiritually in the things of the Spirit, it delights the LORD to see you flourish in other important areas of life too. Pleasing God in all ways should be your pursuit.

*Prayers*
In the Name of Jesus, I flourish and prosper in all areas of life.

TOPIC: Saturate Yourself With His Love

John 15:13 NKJV‬
[13] Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.

*Message*

Mankind is deserving of everlasting destruction after abusing God’s manifold grace and love (which even angels didn't get to enjoy) in the Garden of Eden. But God's love was magnificently demonstrated in Christ Jesus when He gave Himself to redeem and restore undeserving sinners like us.

*The intention of God’s love is for our eternal security (which, of course, He wants us to begin reaping the dividends of eternity right from now). So, God’s love still saves man from eternal destruction. When He looks at fallen humanity, He does not want His beloved creatures to perish, and so in His love, He extends the gift of salvation in Jesus Christ.*

Fortunately, the duration of God’s love is for all of eternity. The love we receive among people here on earth may fade or turn, but God’s love will never change. God will never stop loving His people, even unto the furthest distance of eternity, this you can be very sure of. Saturate yourself with His love and be empowered to reciprocate as best as you can.

*Prayers*
Help me dear Lord to never lose sight of Your great love for me.

TOPIC: John 3:16 (2)

John 3:16
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

*Message*

What is love without giving? God, being the Loving Being He is, gave Himself in Christ Jesus, a description of both the expression and the gift of His love. He can do without His creatures since He is All-powerful. However, love made Him subject Himself to feel for the plight of our fallen world, and much more, to take a drastic sacrificial step to make things right again - He gave the most precious thing to give: His only begotten Son.

*Now, "Whoever believes in Him" describes the recipient of God’s love. There is the Almighty Loving God who is giving His love to the undeserving sinner, and the sinner is expected to reciprocate His love by embracing Him. While God loves the world, the world does not receive or benefit from that love until it believes in Jesus.*

Believing in Jesus is not about intellectual awareness of this reality, but you must practically trust and cling to Him in submission. You give him the life you used to know and take His new life (the God kind of life Man lost after the Fall In Eden). Thus, you become a new creation through faith in Christ Jesus.

*Prayers*
Help me dear Lord to never lose sight of Your great love for me.

TOPIC: *John 3:16*

John 3:16
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

*Message*

John 3:16 in various generations had been applauded as a powerful, succinct, declaration of the gospel, having a reputation for being the most popular single verse used in evangelism. Why not? Therein, we see the great Almighty God in love with the world He has made. It is amazing that God did not wait for the world to turn to Him before He loved the world. He loved, and since love is sweet in giving, He gave His only begotten Son to the world when it was still a bitter world.

*Now, note that in this chapter, Jesus was discussing with the man Nicodemus who was a prominent Jewish ruler. He was surprised when the Lord told him "God loved the world" because they had always thought God only loved Israel. So, when Jesus introduced to him the way of salvation, it took insane faith to believe.*

And this is one of the core emphases of our faith: God loves the world; He loves everyone irrespective of where they are right now and what they have been doing. God's love is wide enough to embrace all mankind. The love is even sweeter when folks decide to join themselves to Jesus Christ and become His bride - because Christ loved the church vehemently (Ephesians 5:25).

*Prayers*
Help me dear Lord to never lose sight of Your great love for me.

TOPIC: Winning On God's Side

I Timothy 6:12‬
[12] Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

*Message*

First, our focus scripture today instructs that we fight the good fight of faith. You see, going God’s way is contrary to the ungodly flow of this world, hence, it won’t be something easy. This is why we've got to retain the disposition and determination of a soldier. Walking faithfully with God is a really serious business that must be handled with great seriousness.

*It's no joke, as believers, God calls us to be fighters - but to fight the good fight of faith. The enemy is doing everything to push you out of faith into what is not God's perfect Will for you. But you must persist in the faith, carry on the fight with great determination until the war is over – when you lay hold on eternal life.*

So, you see, when Paul was writing that letter to Timothy, Timothy was still a very young chap, and the young man was made aware that he was drafted into this war ("To which you were also called". Nevertheless, he also agreed to be a part of it because God won't unnecessarily force you ("And have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses". So, like Timothy, whilst God has called you, you must also freely choose to fight on God's side.

*Prayers*

I fight and win on God's side.

TOPIC: You Are Unstoppable

Matthew 5:14 NKJV‬
[14] “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

*Message*

The Devil is inferior to mankind but has devised a way to get humans enslaved by sin (we sin when we go against God's perfect Will). In the book of Genesis, satan had to first craftily lure Adam and Eve into sin before he could get them enslaved in a measure. The enemy of your soul has discovered from history that a potent tool to enslave many is via their fleshy thirst for immoral pleasures, hence the invention of various stuff through demon-possessed inventors to feed the flesh.

*But you are light, and must keep partnering with the Holy Ghost to be unstoppable by the enemy. You should become a slave to righteousness. Mankind is designed to be subservient to something/someone, and it is wisdom to willfully submit to what is beneficial to your spirit, soul, and body. When you become the slave of righteousness through faith in Christ Jesus, you are sold out to God and the things of God only, and your body is only utilized to worship the LORD.*

In this state, the Holy Spirit becomes actively involved in your life, directing you in what to do and what not to do. He helps train your appetite to ensure you won't find interest in stuff that can be utilized by the devil to trap you with sinful pleasures subtly.

*Prayers*

In the Name of Jesus, I am incorruptible!

IAmHim1:
PS: You mentioned pleading the blood of Jesus Christ...

Yeah.
That's the scam of Christianity.

The blood of Jesus Christ is not real. Jesus was murdered because he taught people to find God by themselves, far away from churches. That's why Jesus never built a church even though he could charge people for miracles and build a house for his father.

https://www.nairaland.com/8160537/why-wealthy-jesus-didnt-build

Jesus was murdered by the church elders then ...and his murder was covered up...that's how the blood of Jesus Christ was invented.


If the blood of Jesus was real, I'd be a big Time money ritualist and ask for forgiveness anytime I kill for my rituals. Think about this deeply then you'll awake

TOPIC: What The LORD Said You Are

Matthew 5:14 NKJV‬
[14] “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

*Message*

The LORD Jesus Himself said you are the light of the world! He never challenged us to become light - He simply said we are! Incredibly, this was the same title He claimed for Himself while physically on earth. "Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” (John 8:12 NKJV). He also said the same in John 9:5 - "As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

*Jesus wants us to do greater works than He did (John 14:12) and it's now obvious that this can be maximized as we give perpetual expression to our responsibilities as light givers. Light provides the gift of guidance to ensure those who have lost their way can find the path home, and the intensity of your light shining before men is determined by the degree of the effectiveness of your good works, which then turns attention to the LORD who is deserving of all glory.*

Light is needed because the world is in darkness. Thus, if your Christianity imitates the darkness, then you have nothing to show the world. To be effective in your eternal ordination as a light giver, you must seek and display the Christian life. You can never affect the world for Jesus by becoming like the world.

*Prayers*

My light shines in a dark world as multitudes see my good works and glorify the Father in Christ Jesus.

TOPIC: Where Are Your Good Works? (2)

Matthew 5:16 ‬
[16] Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

*Message*

When Jesus said "You are the light of the world", it is both a compliment and a great responsibility, and you will be either fulfilling or failing that given responsibility. We are not just light receivers, but also light givers. Light gives the gift of guidance to ensure those who have lost their way can find the path home. And like we said yesterday, the intensity of your light shining before men is determined by the degree of the effectiveness of your good works, which then turns attention to the LORD who is deserving of all glory.

*You must partner with the Holy Ghost to guide your hands on superb "good works" the dark world can't ignore. When you do great things for the Lord as led by the Spirit, it's easy for Gentiles to be drawn towards the direction of your light and be compelled to learn the ways of God from you.*

Finally, according to Spurgeon, "The object of our shining is not that men may see how good we are, nor even see us at all, but that they may see grace in us and God in us, and cry, ‘What a Father these people must have."

*Message*

The intensity of your light shining before men is determined by the degree of the effectiveness of your good works, which then turns attention to the LORD who is deserving of all glory. The effectiveness of your good works is shaped by your zeal and fervency, plainness and openness, as touching matters of kingdom propagation.

*Your faithfulness, integrity, courage, and diligence in matters of the Gospel, all go a long way in impacting a dark world with God's light. Good works should be exhibited daily in your life and conversations, as you maintain strict regard for truth, the honor of the LORD, and the good of souls.*

Your good works done in spirit and in truth becomes an entrance for the Holy Spirit to illuminate the minds of men, ensuring their regeneration, conversion, and sanctification. In such a blessed state, the people will give praise to God, and as they grow in the knowledge of His Will, they keep blessing Him for qualifying them to be partakers of His manifold grace.

TOPIC: Doing Amazing Things For The Lord From The Altar Of Intercession (4)

Psalms 122:6-9
"Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you. Peace be within your walls, Prosperity within your palaces.” For the sake of my brethren and companions, I will now say, “Peace be within you.” Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek your good."

*Message*

As believers, we are spiritual priests of God destined for a lifestyle of continual intercession. We have been instructed to intercede, and in God's wisdom, embedded in the instruction is an avenue to set yourself up for divine all-round prosperity in the kingdom. See what the Bible says:

*"Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you. Peace be within your walls, Prosperity within your palaces.” For the sake of my brethren and companions, I will now say, “Peace be within you.” Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek your good." Psalms 122:6‭-‬9*

There is always a 'Jerusalem' for everyone to intercede for. Your 'Jerusalem' can be a person, a geographical location, a church, a tribe, and so on. Every believer has been instructed always to seek to know the 'Jerusalem' they must intercede for per time, and engage that ministry unfailingly.

Now, the other parts of that scripture talked about how those who are faithful to the assignment of their own Jerusalem will prosper. Great blessedness is attached to the conformity of your Jerusalem to God's perfect Will. In other words, when the things you are interceding for are becoming conformed to God's perfect Will, you also will flourish.

Intercession is one of God's unfailing strategies to ensure His children will keep flourishing on all sides

*Prayers*

Help me Lord to give greater priority to intercession.

TOPIC: Doing Amazing Things For The Lord From The Altar Of Intercession (3)

Numbers 14:20 ‬
Then the Lord said: “I have pardoned, according to your word;


*Message*

Today, let's examine how Moses changed the fate of an entire nation through intercession. In Numbers 14, the LORD was fed up with Israel due to their constant disobedience, and He told Moses that He was ready to destroy them and "disinherit them" (vs 12).

He also told Moses that the next plan was to bring forth a new nation out of Moses that would take the place of Israel (which means God had already made up His mind to wipe off Israel due to them rejecting Him).

*However, although Moses knew that God doesn't joke with His words and that He is all-powerful, Moses, by faith, proceeded to legislate over the people of Israel. In the end, he was able to get God to change His mind! "Then the LORD said: 'I have pardoned according to your word" (Numbers 14:20).*

See how many exploits you can do from the altar of intercession! Moses was able to alter the destiny of a whole nation by faith! If he hadn't done this, the nation known as Israel wouldn't have remained in existence today.

The altar of intercession offers inexhaustible potential and possibilities, and it's one where impossibility doesn't exist. Like Moses the man of God, you too can alter the destiny of nations and territories.

Instead, learn to talk good behind people's back

You know, one of the cardinal expressions of the imperfection attached to the fallen nature of mankind is how the average human finds it more convenient to do wrong than right.

neonly:

The rest i leave for Jehovah to judge

It is well. It rains everywhere, I guess.

Avoid backbiting, gossiping and tarnishing people's image behind their back. There is a divine ordinance called "The Law of Sowing and Reaping".

For every single person you backbite or whose image you tarnished(particularly if it now closed a door of opportunity against them), at least 10 other persons are meant to do the same to you too behind your back. It's an ordinance.

Just mind your own business and learn not to dabble in things not your business. Focus on your own life and destiny. And if you know you are guilty of this, plead the blood of Jesus to cancel anything the enemy might want to hold on to bring accusations against you in the courtroom of heaven.

Galatians 4:19
"My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you."

*Message*

As you go out today, the most important thing I want you to remember is that the altar of intercession is a viable and competent platform to play an essential role in the fulfillment of the Great Commission.

*If your sacrificial intercession is the seed that was planted in the spirit realm for the salvation of an unbeliever, the person who preached to him or her is not the only one who will get the reward in heaven - but even you being the intercessor whose prayers caused a shift in the spirit realm, will share in the reward.*

If we want Jesus Christ to come quickly, then more Intercessors must rise. Because one of the major reasons why true kingdom expansion seems to be lagging is due to the weakness of the spiritual energy that divine creatures can utilize to introduce a supernatural intervention (and this is because there are just very few committed and faithful Intercessors).

If the kingdom doesn't spread as it ought to, Jesus might just keep postponing His coming, and the earth will continue to suffer. Do amazing things for the Lord from the altar of intercession.

TOPIC: Doing Amazing Things For The Lord From The Altar Of Intercession

Galatians 4:19
"My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you."

*Message*

The altar of intercession is a viable and competent platform that plays an essential role in fulfilling the Great Commission.

The Great Commission (that souls should be won and established in Christ) is at the center of God's purpose for mankind (Matthew 28:19,20). Since it means a lot to Jesus, then it must mean a lot to us too. There are several activities required to make this a reality - including putting together resources to sponsor kingdom projects and initiatives, going out to preach the gospel (the message of the kingdom) and teaching the converts the way of the kingdom, etc.

*Nevertheless, there must be a supernatural intervention from the realm of the spirit before an unbeliever will willingly choose to rebel against sin and Satan and self. The unbeliever must first be settled in the spirit realm, where the veil cast on their mind must be removed first. If not, our preaching and resources will be a waste.*

"But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. (II Corinthians 4:3‭-‬4)

As we could see from the case of Paul, he maximized the power of intercession to snatch a lot of Galatian Gentiles from sin, and to travail for the establishment of his converts ("...Christ be formed in you.". Meaning, preaching and teaching are not enough to fulfill the Great Commission - things must be settled first on the altar of intercession.

TOPIC: Intercession As A Weapon Of Spiritual Warfare

Ephesians 6:18 ‬
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—

*Message*

In Ephesians 6, Paul was talking about spiritual warfare. He drew attention to how the kingdom of darkness will always attempt to make us fall and fail. Then, from verse 10:

*"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand."*

He proceeds to list the armor, such as the breastplate of righteousness, shield of faith, etc.

Then, from verse 18, Paul gave other weapons to the more experienced fighters, which drew our attention to "praying in the Spirit and Intercession".

*Engaging Intercessor prayers by the Spirit, particularly with the language of the Spirit, is always explosive in the realm of the Spirit. And as we intercede for others, we are watching their backs in the spirit. The law of sowing and reaping only implies that others will do the same for you, whether you know it or not. There is a spiritual law of sowing and reaping. What you sow is what you reap. If you sow a great measure of intercession, you will reap a greater measure of intercession.*

Certain graces can help us stand and flourish that are easily obtainable by other people's prayers towards us.

Trust the Holy Spirit to open your eyes to who or what to make Intercessor prayers for today.

TOPIC: The Rising Church

Isaiah 60:3 ‬
The Gentiles shall come to your light, And kings to the brightness of your rising.

*Message*

Some theologians have insisted that in context, Isaiah chapter 60 has been specifically directed to the nation of Israel. Hence, it is believed that a place like verse 3 of that chapter denotes when the Lord lifts up His glorious light over Israel and the Gentile nations see it and are attracted to the light, and that it will be ultimately fulfilled in the Millennial Kingdom of Jesus when Israel is lifted up among all nations.

*However, in the New Testament, the Holy Spirit had educated us on His interests in the spiritual Israel, the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, there are glorious prophecies hanging over the body of Christ, and we must arise in alignment to partner with the Holy Spirit to birth these great and wonderful things.*

The Church is destined to experience a great increase and flourish without restraint, so much that unbelievers will be influenced to find succor in her light. The prominent people and systems of this world are meant to join themselves willingly to the ways of the body of Christ, incorporating her lifestyle and kingdom principles. This is the will of God. Amen.

TOPIC: Take The Appropriate Posture

Isaiah 60:2‬
[2] For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people; But the Lord will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you.

*Message*

As you should have seen from Isaiah 60 verse 2, the solution for eradicating darkness is not merely to focus on the darkness, but for God's people to take the posture where it's permissible for God to mount them with His glory. His glory which then radiates through you will chase away the darkness (and you will afterwards discover that the darkness is not as strong as it looks).

Darkness is ugly and disgusting, empowering all manner of dirty things that make the earth uglier and more awful, with all of the sinful things that have attached themselves to modern civilizations. Darkness is cruel, providing cover for evil of all kinds to thrive. Darkness is mean, allowing the evil devil the atmosphere he needs to unbalance the whole earth from time immemorial.

*Dear child of God, a lot is hanging upon your shoulders. Take a posture where you carry God in spirit and in truth and allow His glory to flow from within you, whereby you will be able to partner with the Holy Ghost to keep destroying the works of darkness around you.*

TOPIC: When Darkness Tries To Seduce Light (3)

Genesis 39:9‬
How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?”


*Message*

Knowing fully well that darkness will always try to lure your light, you must create structures to ensure you won't fall for its seduction. This is so important today, considering that we reside in societies filled with darkness, where dark works have become an integral part of culture and modern civilizations. You must always be multiple steps ahead of the crafty devil.

*For Joseph, the spirit of darkness employed a member of the opposite gender to try to seduce the young man into corrupting his light on the bed of sexual immorality. This should be emphasized because sexual immorality has always been a dependent tool in the hands of the enemy to corrupt God's people and make them dim their once-bright lights.*

It is wisdom to create structures around channels the enemy could employ to bring you into sexual sins. Make it impossible for the enemy to corrupt your light through wrong sexual activities with a member of the opposite gender. Like Joseph, create structures that help you retain the consciousness of the fear of God, and you will preserve the brightness of your God-given light for all eternity.

*Prayers*
In the name of Jesus, I won't fall into the seducing realm of darkness.

TOPIC: When Darkness Tries To Seduce Light (2)

II Corinthians 6:14‬
"And what communion has light with darkness?"

*Message*

Once your light begins to shine to an extent where it starts becoming a threat to the kingdom of hell, plans and strategies will be crafted to stop you, one of which entails attempts to seduce your light and get it corrupted. In this state, that which you or the world refers to as light will become ineffective, unthreatening to hell, and could even be employed by the devil to publish darkness.

*Immediately Jesus was baptized and commissioned, hell recognized the brightness of the light that had been lit, and as expected, the age-long strategy was put at work when the devil approached the Lord in the wilderness to seduce His light into embracing the provisions of darkness. Should Jesus have accepted any of the offers of darkness, He would have laid His light under the feet of the evil one.*

Dear believer, don't be quick to jump on offers you aren't sure God is bringing to you. If God isn't giving you something, then don't worry yourself. Hence, the crafty devil could utilize your intense cravings (which are making loud statements in the realm of the spirit) to grant you offers that will grant them legitimacy over your light if accepted.

*Prayers*
In the name of Jesus, I won't fall into the seducing realm of darkness.

TOPIC: When Darkness Tries To Seduce Light

II Corinthians 6:14‬
"And what communion has light with darkness?"

*Message*

*As a child of God, a carrier of light, darkness is so afraid of you much more than you can imagine. Since darkness is very well aware it can't stop you via a headlong confrontation, it then makes attempts to seduce you into its realm with the aim of corrupting your light, making it dim, and eventually getting the light put off. If you observe the different pages of scripture, across different generations, you will discover that this has always been a strategy employed by the kingdom of darkness.*

Look at Joseph when taken to a land of slavery, a carrier of light in a country filled with darkness and heavily under the influence of darkness. His light kept intimidating darkness even in his master's household. It kept terrifying the holds of darkness, making darkness more and more uncomfortable. I'm sure that with Joseph being the boss at his master's house, he would put a stop to any corrupt practice that had been the order of the day before his arrival.

As expected, the spirit of darkness, possessing the wife of his master, would make an attempt to seduce his light into its realm of darkness. Should Joseph have fallen for the seduction, his light would have been infested with darkness, and he would disqualify himself from becoming all that God had destined him to be.


*Prayers*
In the name of Jesus, I won't fall into the seducing realm of darkness.

TOPIC: Can God Lie?

Jeremiah 1:8 ‬
"Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord."

*Message*

When God called Jeremiah in the first chapter of his book, God warned him that the darkness-loving society would fight to shut down the light he was commissioned to dispense. However, God promised the young prophet that He would always be with Him and deliver him in all ways. Indeed, all of these truly happened - both the attempts of the lovers of darkness to quench the light of Jeremiah and God's faithfulness to His promises.

If you check Jeremiah chapter 26, the prophet was so close to death in the hands of the evil rulers who were obviously under the influence of darkness (in fact, in that same chapter, another truth speaker, Urijah, was brutally killed by the same people). However, because God already promised salvation and deliverance to Jeremiah beforehand, he held on to God's words, and he was saved perpetually.

*Also, if you see Jeremiah 38, you know how the prophet was cast into a dungeon with no water but mire, left to sink and die. However, because God's word won't fall to the ground, He engineered situations that ensured the deliverance of His servant. Don't be scared to eliminate the workings of darkness around you! God's word already promised salvation and deliverance amidst their opposition and attempts to shut down your light. God's word can never fail.*

As God's priest and warrior, I eliminate the workings of darkness around me, in Jesus Name.

TOPIC: The Compromised Nations (2)

Jeremiah 1:10
"See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant.”

*Message*

Yesterday, we explained from scriptures how the devil became an entity of darkness that was thrown into the earth as a punishment for rebelling against God in heaven, and how the evil one began to inject the earth with rebellion until it fully compromised subtly and turned its back against seeking the actualization of God's perfect Will. Hence, the earth and its nations (even its systems of administration) in themselves have been compromised from time immemorial, and will naturally want to oppose the realities of God's truth.

God told the young prophet Jeremiah while commissioning him:

"See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant.” (Jeremiah 1:10).

*As God's representatives on earth, He has empowered us by His Spirit to soar above the compromised administration of the earth realm, and we are divinely positioned to disciple nations and systems out of darkness (a reality that is against God's perfect Will) into the glorious influence of His kingdom (by preaching and teaching them the full gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ).*

TOPIC: The Compromised Nations

Isaiah 14:12 ‬
"How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations!

*Message*

A perfect God must have created a perfect heaven and earth in Genesis 1:1. Hence, we know something must have gone wrong somewhere when we were told in the next verse that: "The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep." Eventually, it was still Scripture that helped solve our curiosity, explaining how Lucifer rebelled against the government of God and transformed into darkness, and was banished to the earth.

*Now, as soon as Lucifer was thrown into the earth, it was revealed that he immediately embarked on an adventure of getting the nations weakened (Isaiah 14:12). Before this time, the nations of the earth (the administration of earth) had been 100 percent loyal to the government of God in heaven. However, the devil, now a being of rebellion, began to inject the earth with rebellion until it fully compromised subtly and turned its back against seeking the actualization of God's perfect Will.*

If you are a child of God who is bent on spreading God's light to ensure His kingdom flourishes across the nations of the earth, be vigilant, because the compromised earth and its compromised systems of administration will naturally fight back. Fortunately, Christ already secured the victory! Hallelujah!

TOPIC: Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark Rebels!" (4)

Jeremiah 1:8 ‬
Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord.


*Message*

When the LORD was commissioning the young Jeremiah into the ministry He had ordained for him, He took time to educate the young prophet of the availability of the dark rebels who will attempt to fight anyone shining God's light. God encouraged him (as He is to you too today) not to be afraid of the enemy's camp, giving His word "I am with you".

In the midst of terrible opposition as you do God's work, always remember that He is really with you, and the assurance of His word will remain your stronghold that makes you invincible.

*God told Jeremiah: "See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant.” (Jeremiah 1:10). Darkness has infested nations and systems (political systems, economic systems, etc) and find it easy to exhibit features that showcase rebellion to God's perfect Will. However, as God's warrior, you will always be ahead. Only be bold and don't be afraid.*

TOPIC: *Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark Rebels!" (3)*

Psalms 82:5-6 ‬
They do not know, nor do they understand; They walk about in darkness; All the foundations of the earth are unstable. [6] I said, “You are gods, And all of you are children of the Most High.

*Message*

The devil and his cohorts (the dark rebels) have always been proactive in hindering people across generations from knowing the truth that will ensure true dominion with eternal implications. This is one of the things Psalms 82:5-6 was insinuating. The dark rebels employ different strategies just to prevent people from knowing (experiential, characterized by the necessary lifestyle) their godship ordination that guarantees soaring on the wings of light. The devil doesn't always fight violently. Several times too, he only subtly makes you oblivious to the things meant for your advantage.

*Of course, this identity can now only be entered into via believing the gospel, as it is through faith in Christ Jesus (His death, burial, and resurrection) that we are empowered supernaturally to become representatives of the Godhead here on earth. But here is the problem (the same thing the dark rebels had been doing), there are still many people "whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them." (II Corinthians 4:4 NKJV).*

And when you see even believers struggling in certain important areas that make them unable to live the fullness of life they deserve, it shows the absence of light in those areas, and it could be the enemy fighting to close your eyes to the required kingdom practices you should make a lifestyle.

Psalms 82:5-6 ‬
They do not know, nor do they understand; They walk about in darkness; All the foundations of the earth are unstable. [6] I said, “You are gods, And all of you are children of the Most High.

*Message*

In the above verses, you discover that there's a necessity for apprehending the reality of your godship (one created in the very image and likeness of God) to avoid being trapped by the limitations of darkness. Walking in this reality also helps empower you to help pull more people out of darkness as you help open their eyes to the beauty of their eternal destiny.

*!!Since the Fall of Man in the Garden of Eden, human nature finds it difficult to comprehend the things meant for our advantage (even eternal systems God has put in place to make all things work for our good). However, in Christ Jesus, through the workings of the Holy Spirit in you, you begin to realize your original eternal identity, and you receive illuminations to walk in the manner meant for your glorification.*

As believers, we shouldn't be distracted by mundane and temporal offerings of this world. Rather, we should keep pressing for the things of eternity, setting our minds on the things above and not the things below. This is how we can keep enhancing the quality of our lives here on earth. When you walk in this light, the dark rebels (the hosts of darkness) will find you unstoppable.

TOPIC: Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark Rebels!"

II Chronicles 15:7 ‬
"But you, be strong and do not let your hands be weak, for your work shall be rewarded!”"

*Message*

When you carefully observe the ways of the devil from Scripture, you won't be surprised to see the hostile reactions of his agents (systems, people, etc infested with darkness) towards the light carried by we children of God. The devil hates the light, and he tries fighting every time using his people and systems that have compromised (be it political systems, economic systems, religious systems, etc).

*The devil has always been a rebel. He rebelled against God in heaven, and upon being thrown into the earth, discipled peoples and systems in the art and act of rebellion via dark practices. The curriculum of rebellion also contains the art of fighting anyone or system that attempts to partner with the LORD to eliminate the agenda of darkness. Hence, the camp of darkness will always roar against you to make you scared, but greater is He who is in you than he who is of the world.*

I Peter 5:8 - "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour." But in the next verse, it says you (not God) should resist him. In other words, you have all it takes to keep the devil at a place of perpetual defeat through faith in Christ Jesus. You are already more than a conqueror!
