THEME: GOD’S SPIRIT IS GOD’S ANSWER

THEME SCRIPTURE: And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness (Acts 4:31).

Often, we say God’s Spirit is God’s answer and many don’t understand it. When we pray, God answers, and His answer is the Spirit. For example, in Acts chapter 4, following the healing of the lame man in chapter 3, the Jewish leaders were enraged against the apostles. They commanded Peter and John not to preach or teach in the Name of Jesus.

But the apostles stood their ground, declaring, "For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard" (Acts 4:20). After further threats, the authorities found no basis to punish them and let them go. The Bible says in Acts 4:23, "And being let go, they went to their own company...." By this time, many had already received salvation, and the Christians gathered together in unity.

When they heard what had happened, they lifted their voices in prayer to God. Their prayer was fervent. They acknowledged God’s sovereignty and asked, "And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word" (Acts 4:29). God’s response was beyond their expectations. Our opening verse says, "And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness."

God’s answer was the Spirit! He filled them with the Spirit and the result was them speaking the Word with boldness, healing the sick and casting out devils. In verse 33, we’re specifically told, "And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all." Blessed be God!

The disciples prayed for boldness and God filled them with His Spirit. The answer wasn’t just a change in their situation but the impartation of the Spirit who enabled them to proclaim the Word with great power. This is what happens every time we pray; the Spirit is the answer. He fills us, strengthens us and empowers us to accomplish His will. Hallelujah!

CONFESSION
I’m filled with the Spirit, empowered to speak the Word with boldness and to manifest the glory of God everywhere. I walk in the consciousness of God’s divine presence, knowing that through the Spirit, I have everything I need to fulfil my purpose, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:
Acts 4:31 NIV After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.

Zechariah 4:6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.

Acts 2:17-18 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: [18] And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

THEME: VISION AND STRATEGY

THEME SCRIPTURE: And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour (Joshua 6:2).

In our previous study, we emphasized the importance of seeing and creating the future you desire through the power of vision. Today, we take it a step further by understanding the necessity of having a strategy. Many of God’s children, though able to visualize, lack the vital element of strategy.

Joshua 6 provides a remarkable example of how vision and strategy work together to produce divine results. God said to Joshua, “See, I have given into thine hand Jericho.” The battle had not yet begun, but God declared the victory. Joshua had to see it first—this is the power of vision, seeing what God has already given you and acting accordingly.

However, vision alone is not enough. God gave Joshua the vision, but Joshua needed a strategy to take the city. The divine strategy was for him and the children of Israel to march around Jericho for seven days. Joshua had to follow the strategy to bring the vision to pass. In the same way, when God gives you a vision, He also gives you the strategy to accomplish it. Be sure to employ that strategy.

Life is a construction, not an accident. If life were an accident, it would be chaotic. Many people live in chaos because they have not structured their lives with purpose and vision. They drift from one event to another, relying on luck or chance. But a successful life or any successful endeavour is built on a solid foundation through vision, strategy, principles and means.

It makes no difference what your endeavour is; function from where God has positioned you and use the tools He has given you—vision, strategy, and faith—to build something extraordinary.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the ability to see and construct my life according to your divine vision. I walk in wisdom, guided by your Spirit, implementing the right strategies to fulfil your purpose for my life. My steps are ordered, and my success is inevitable, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:
Joshua 6:1-5 Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in. [2] And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour. [3] And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days. [4] And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams' horns: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets. [5] And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him.

Joshua 6:20-22 CJB So the people shouted, with the shofars blowing. When the people heard the sound of the shofars, the people let out a great shout; and the wall fell down flat; so that the people went up into the city, each one straight ahead of him; and they captured the city. 21 They completely destroyed everything in the city with the sword — men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep and donkeys. 22 Y’hoshua said to the two men who had reconnoitered the land, “Go into the prostitute’s house and bring the woman out with all that she has, as you swore to her.”

THEME: THE POWER OF VISION AND IMAGINATION

THEME SCRIPTURE: And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chesnut tree; and pilled white strakes in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods (Genesis 30:37).

Jacob’s story in Genesis 30 and 31 is a fascinating demonstration of the power of vision and imagination. When Jacob agreed to work for Laban, he was promised cattle as wages. However, Laban repeatedly changed the terms and cheated Jacob. But Jacob, through divine wisdom and creative strategy, turned the situation around.

Jacob took rods from green poplar, hazel, and chestnut trees, and peeled white streaks on them to make the white appear. He placed these rods in the watering troughs where the flocks came to drink. As the animals mated in front of the rods, they produced offspring that were exactly what Jacob desired. Later, Jacob no longer needed the rods. He separated the young, spotted, and speckled animals and set them before the stronger cattle. By doing this, he created a vision for the flocks and they produced according to what they saw.

Jacob’s method was a demonstration of the creative power of vision. He used his imaginative ability to influence the outcome. When the stronger cattle conceived, Jacob placed the rods before their eyes, ensuring they produced strong, desirable offspring. When the cattle were feeble, he did not use the rods, so the weaker ones belonged to Laban.

Over time, Jacob’s flocks grew stronger and more abundant, while Laban’s remained feeble. Jacob’s success was by divine revelation. In a dream, he saw the rams leaping on the cattle as ringstraked, speckled, and grisled. An angel confirmed this vision, saying, “‘...Lift your eyes now and see, all the rams which leap on the flocks are streaked, speckled, and gray spotted…" (Genesis 31:12 NKJV).

How important this is! You have the ability to create the future you desire by focusing on what you want to see. Create the vision that you want with your mind. Through the Word and power of the Holy Spirit at work in you, you can create or shape your physical reality. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for giving me the ability to see and create my desired future through the power of vision and by your Word. As I use my imaginative ability, inspired by your Spirit, I construct my life in alignment with your divine purpose, with victories and expansion in every area. I’m empowered to impact my world and fulfil my destiny, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

THEME: STAND FIRM—REFUSE TO COMPROMISE

THEME SCRIPTURE: When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee (Isaiah 43:2)

You may find yourself buffeted by pressures and persecutions on every side for the sake of the Gospel; don’t despair. What you’re doing has a future. Your labour in the Lord is not in vain; it is purposeful and eternal. God never promised that everything would be smooth or without challenges. He told us there would be difficulties, trials and adversaries. But in the midst of them all, He assured us of His presence and victory.

Recall what we read in our opening scripture; He didn’t say there would be no tempest or fire. The promise is not the absence of challenges but the assurance of His presence and protection for you in the midst of adversities. It helps you understand the reason He says, “Count it all joy when you go through diverse tests” (James 1:2).

The Bible tells us in Daniel 3 about Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, three young men who stood firm in their faith despite fierce opposition. Their story is often remembered for the fiery furnace and their miraculous deliverance, but there’s more to it. Before they were thrown into the flames, they faced condemnation, rejection and false accusations. They endured hatred and opposition simply because they refused to compromise their faith.

2 Corinthians 4:17 says, "For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory." So, there’re things you’ll have to face, go through, stand against and confront for you to live the godly life that the Lord has given you. There may be adversaries on every side, but in the midst of them all, you’re more than a conqueror. 2 Timothy 3:12 says, “Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.”

Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world (1 John 4:4). He assures in Matthew 28:20 (NIV), "...And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Set your eyes on the future and on His glory. Refuse to be distracted by the temporary challenges. Be confident that no matter what, His Word will prevail in your life and His glory will always be revealed in and through you.

CONFESSION
I stand firm in faith, irrespective of the challenges or oppositions, because the greater One lives in me. God's Word puts me over every trial, and I walk in perpetual victory. Thank you Lord for your presence, your protection, and your Word that never fails, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:
1 Corinthians 15:57-58 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

Romans 8:31-37 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? 32 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? 33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. 34 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. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or unclothedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

2 Corinthians 4:17 AMPC For our light, momentary affliction (this slight distress of the passing hour) is ever more and more abundantly preparing and producing and achieving for us an everlasting weight of glory [beyond all measure, excessively surpassing all comparisons and all calculations, a vast and transcendent glory and blessedness never to cease!],

THEME SCRIPTURE: ACKNOWLEDGE AND DECLARE THE TRUTH

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 (Ephesians 3:20).

Are you aware that there’s power at work in you? Yes, you have eternal life in you, and that life gives you power over sickness, disease and infirmities. You have power to cast out devils, heal sicknesses and cure diseases. You’ve been empowered to live in victory and unending prosperity. This power in you is activated by acknowledgement and declaration. If you don't acknowledge it, it can't work.

Sometimes, in a bid to sound humble, some people deny what they have. If, maybe, you said to them, “Oh, you really have power,” their typical response would be, “I don't have any power; only Jesus has power.” But they're wrong. The same Jesus said in Luke 10:19, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”

Don’t deny what He gave you simply because you think you’re being humble. Acknowledge and affirm that Jesus gave you power to do the impossible—power over all things. Think about it: He gave us the Holy Spirit to live n us. What do you think He’s doing inside you? Who is the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit is the power of God. Acts 1:8 says, “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you….” That means when you received the Holy Spirit, you received power.

Observe how Jesus spoke. He said, “For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself” (John 5:26). Some people must have thought He was too proud for saying that, but He was declaring truth. Doesn’t the Bible say, “…as he is, so are we in this world” (1 John 4:17)?

Acknowledge and declare that you’re full of power. Let it be in the consciousness of your daily language. Like Prophet Micah, declare, “But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the LORD…” (Micah 3:8 ). That's how you activate spiritual power. Talking this way will kill any tumour or disease that tries to rear its ugly head in your body.

CONFESSION
I’m full of power by the Spirit of the Lord and can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I walk in divine health, unending prosperity, and supernatural strength. I’m triumphant over every adversity because I function in the authority and dominion of Christ, in whom I live and move and have my being. Amen.

THEME: YOUR ROLE IN BUILDING HIS CHURCH

THEME SCRIPTURE: For we are members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones (Ephesians 5:30)

We’re the body of Christ. We’re members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones. We’re intimately connected to Him and to one another. In 1 Corinthians 12:26-27, Paul further explains this unity: “And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it. Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.”

This means that every Christian has a specific role and function within the body of Christ. When one part of the body is affected, the entire body feels it. We’re not isolated individuals but interconnected members of the same body—Christ’s body. Ephesians 1:22-23 reveals the power and authority given to the Church: “And hath put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be the head over all things to the church, which is His body….”

The Church, being the body of Christ, carries His authority and power on earth. Ephesians 4:11-12 gives us an insight into how He builds His Church today: “And He gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.”

The word “edifying” means “building”; it’s the same word the Lord Jesus used when He said, “…I will build my church…” (Matthew 16:18). Through the five fold ministry offices and the work of every Christian, He builds His Church. The whole body grows by that which every joint supplies: “From him the whole body…grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work” (Ephesians 4:16 NIV).

Every time a soul is won, it’s like adding another block to the building. Those who minister are like builders, placing each block in its proper place. Each Christian is a specific member of the body—the building. Together, we’re building a magnificent structure, the body of Christ. As we continue to win souls and grow, the Church becomes more beautiful and impactful, reflecting the glory of Christ. This isn’t a task for a select few but for every Christian. Each of us has a role to play, and together, we’re building something extraordinary for God’s glory.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I understand my role and actively participate in building your Church. I’m graced to win souls and strengthened to fulfil my calling. I declare that your Church shines as a beacon of hope and power in the world, as it is a praise in the earth, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY
1 Corinthians 12:26-27 NIV If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it. 27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.

Ephesians 2:19-22 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; 21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: 22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

THEME: OUR FELLOWSHIP WITH DIVINITY

THEME SCRIPTURE: For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us (Ephesians 2:14).

Angels, as far as we know, will live forever. But the life they have isn’t eternal life. They don’t have the organic and existential attributes of deity. That’s why they can’t have real fellowship with God. Only the new creations in Christ, are called into fellowship with divinity: “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” (1 Corinthians 1:9).

Do you see why we’re different from angels? We were brought into fellowship with Jesus Christ. We’ve become associates or sharers of His life, glory and nature. In fact, the Bible tells us He brought us into such a relationship that made us joint heirs with Him (Romans 8:17). What a blessed reality!

There's something about this fellowship that’s extraordinary. It’s deeper than being brought into God's class or being made friends with God; it’s the most significant aspect of our fellowship with Him and we find it in John 14:10. There, the Lord Jesus was speaking to Philip, one of His disciples, and said, “Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.”

If you understand this scripture, everything about your life is settled. Who was Jesus referring to when He said, “The Father that dwelleth in me”? He was referring to the Holy Spirit. That’s the same Holy Spirit that lives in you today; He’s the Father that dwells in you. 1 Corinthians 3:16 says, “Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?” Now you can understand why the Bible says, “…truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ” (1 John 1:3). Our fellowship, our oneness with divinity is the biggest thing about Christianity. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for your grace, your love, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit that I enjoy. Thank you for making me inseparably one with you and a partaker of the divine nature. I’m completely yielded to the Holy Spirit who dwells in me and orchestrates the circumstances of my life to synchronize with your perfect will. I walk in the consciousness of my oneness with you, today and always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY
1 Corinthians 1:9 AMPC God is faithful (reliable, trustworthy, and therefore ever true to His promise, and He can be depended on); by Him you were called into companionship and participation with His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

THEME: THE POWER OF PROTAGONISM

THEME SCRIPTURE: He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ. And he brought him to Jesus... (John 1:41-42).

In the work of advancing God’s Kingdom, protagonists are needed, and we see that there were such individuals in the Bible, particularly in the Gospel of John. These were not just passive followers of Jesus Christ but active promoters of His ministry. Their actions demonstrate a special kind of work—protagonism at its finest.

For example, in John 1:40-42, we see Andrew, one of John the Baptist’s disciples who left everything to follow Jesus. Andrew didn’t keep this newfound revelation to himself. He immediately found his brother, Simon (Peter), and declared to him, “We have found the Messiah!” He then brought Peter to Jesus.

Andrew’s actions show the heart of a true protagonist—someone who advances and promotes the ministry of Jesus by enlisting others to join His cause and carry out His work. The next day, Jesus called Philip to follow Him. Philip, like Andrew, didn’t keep the Good News to himself. He found Nathanael and said, “...We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph” (John 1:45).

Nathanael, sceptical at first, questioned, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip’s response was simple, yet powerful; he said to Nathanael, “Come and see” (John 1:45-46). This is the power of protagonism. Andrew and Philip didn’t just follow Jesus, they actively brought others to Him. They connected fellow Jews and devout men who already believed in God to the Messiah’s cause.

Similarly, in advancing God’s Kingdom today, we need a massive army of God’s people who are committed, passionate and unrelenting in their dedication to the Gospel. We’re completing the full preaching of the Gospel this year 2025. Be a protagonist of this mandate! Enlist and encourage others to join this cause as we fulfil the Great Commission.

It’s imperative for us to recognize that to effect a change in the world, we require a united army of Christians, each playing their part in advancing the Kingdom of God, especially as the Lord’s return is imminent.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for making me a protagonist in the advancement of your Kingdom. Through me, many are brought into the Kingdom and enlisted into your great army, fulfilling your divine purpose and changing lives everywhere. I walk in the wisdom and power of the Spirit, continually spreading the influence of the Kingdom, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

THEME: A CUE FROM DAVID

THEME SCRIPTURE: Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us (Romans 8:37)

1 Samuel 17 tells us how the Israelites were embroiled in conflict with the Philistines, a prominent enemy nation. The Philistines had gathered a formidable army and their champion, Goliath, stood defiantly, challenging the Israelites to send out a warrior to face him in single combat.

For forty days, Goliath taunted and mocked the Israelite soldiers. The Israelite army found themselves petrified by dread at the thought of confronting Goliath. But in the midst of this dire situation, young David, a stripling, not qualified to be in the army, arrived at the front lines and heard Goliath’s taunts echoing in the valley.

Incensed by the giant’s defiance against Israel and its God, David began to inquire about the situation and what would be done for the man who killed the Philistine champion. However, David’s inquiries were met with scepticism from his oldest brother, Eliab, who questioned his motives. “Why did you come down here?” Eliab demanded. His words dripped with contempt, suggesting that David was merely a shepherd and naive for thinking he could challenge Goliath.

Undeterred by Eliab’s reproach, David continued to make inquiries until he was brought before King Saul. There, he confidently recounted his experiences as a shepherd: "...I've been a shepherd, tending sheep for my father. Whenever a lion or bear came and took a lamb from the flock, I'd go after it, knock it down, and rescue the lamb. If it turned on me, I'd grab it by the throat, wring its neck, and kill it. Lion or bear, it made no difference--I killed it. And I'll do the same to this Philistine pig who is taunting the troops of God-Alive" (1 Samuel 17:34-36 MSG).

What a response David gave! David didn’t argue with Eliab or try to prove himself. Instead, he calmly shared his testimony of God’s faithfulness. By doing so, he shifted the focus from his brother’s cynicism to God’s power working through him. Of course, David defeated Goliath, decapitated him, and walked through the streets holding the giant’s head.

Summarily, no one dared to challenge him anymore. His victory spoke louder than any words ever could. Always remember David’s example when doubters and detractors try to talk you down. Stay focused on your calling and your assignment. Trust in God’s grace and ability at work in you, and your victories will silence your hecklers.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the wisdom and boldness you’ve given me. I refuse to be intimidated by opposition or the voices of doubt and unbelief, for the greater One lives in me. I take on challenges with the assurance of victory, for you have made me more than a conqueror. My success and exploits silence every opposition, and through me, your glory is revealed, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THEME: THE POWER OF GIVING

THEME SCRIPTURE: There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band, A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway (Acts 10:1-2).

God is plainly against selfishness. Conversely, He’ll seize any opportunity to save, bless, and uplift a giver. Notice the word "save"; even non-Christians who are givers—who are liberal and generous—get God's attention, and He seeks to save them. If He can find someone to pray for them, He will exercise His legal right to act and guide them into salvation.

The story of Cornelius in Acts 10 beautifully illustrates this truth. Cornelius was a Roman centurion, a Gentile and not part of the Jewish community. Yet, he was a devout man who feared God and was known for his generosity. He gave alms to the people and prayed continually.

His giving and prayers did not go unnoticed; they ascended as a memorial before God. As a result of his generosity, God sent an angel to Cornelius with a divine instruction to send for Peter who would bring him the message of salvation. Think about it; an angel appeared to Cornelius because of his giving!

God orchestrated an entire salvation plan for Cornelius, his family, and his household because of his generosity. As Peter preached about Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit fell upon everyone present. They began speaking in tongues and praising God. This moment was a pivotal point in the Early Church, highlighting the universal vision of the Gospel.

God despises stinginess; it is contrary to His nature and reflects the nature of the devil. So, every time God looks at a stingy person, He sees the enemy. But when He sees a giver, He sees something of Himself in that person and He's drawn to that one in love. 2 Corinthians 9:7 AMPC says, “...God loves (He takes pleasure in, prizes above other things, and is unwilling to abandon or to do without) a cheerful (joyous, "prompt to do it" ) giver [whose heart is in his giving].” Let this be your description and your experience of God's love will be overwhelming.

CONFESSION
I’m a cheerful giver, and through my giving, I position myself in alignment with God’s divine purpose, experiencing His abundant grace. I function in supernatural blessings, favours and increase. Thank you Lord for making me a channel of blessings to my world, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY
2 Corinthians 9:6-7 AMPC [Remember] this: he who sows sparingly and grudgingly will also reap sparingly and grudgingly, and he who sows generously [that blessings may come to someone] will also reap generously and with blessings. 7 Let each one [give] as he has made up his own mind and purposed in his heart, not reluctantly or sorrowfully or under compulsion, for God loves (He [b]takes pleasure in, prizes above other things, and is unwilling to abandon or to do without) a cheerful (joyous, “prompt to do it”) giver [whose heart is in his giving].

Proverbs 11:24-25 There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. 25 The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.

Acts 10:3-4 He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius. 4 And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.

Hebrews 13:16 AMPC Do not forget or neglect to do kindness and good, to be generous and distribute and contribute to the needy [of the church as embodiment and proof of fellowship], for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.

THEME: THE LORD—YOUR SUSTAINER AND PROVIDER

THEME SCRIPTURE: But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).

As Christians, when we say Jesus Christ is Lord of our lives, it means more than He being our saviour. The Hebrew and Greek words for "Lord" carry the same meaning, which includes master, caretaker, bread provider, sustainer, boss, and teacher. This is the essence of what it means for Jesus to be Lord; it means He’s your sustainer, your master, your caretaker, your bread provider, and your teacher.

If this is true, and thank God it is, then it means He’s more than capable of taking care of you. You don’t have to beg Him to take care of you or plead with Him to provide your needs with a sense of desperation as if He’s reluctant to do so. Such a disposition reflects a lack of understanding of who Jesus is as your Lord and Sustainer.

Read His words in Matthew 7:11, "If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?" Ponder this for a moment. You have to learn to trust the Lord and rely solely on His Word. Act on His Word. The world’s systems are failing.

In the days of Joseph, the Bible records that money failed. Inflation was rampant and the currency became worthless. But in the midst of that crisis, God’s people experienced supernatural prosperity. Why? Their trust was in the Lord, their sustainer.

The Lord Jesus is more than able to sustain you through every season of life. Read Matthew 6:25-34 where He stresses your value and then tells you what to do and what not to do. So, act on His Word today. The triumphant life is for those who act on God’s Word.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for being my Lord and Sustainer. I refuse to be anxious about anything because you are my caretaker, provider, teacher, source and sustainer. My trust is in you, and I function in supernatural prosperity as I live by your Word, in victory every day, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

THEME: UNDERSTANDING THE POWER OF HIS MATCHLESS NAME

THEME SCRIPTURE: And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it (John 14:13-14).

The Name of Jesus holds unparalleled significance, so, understanding the power behind His matchless Name is crucial for every Christian. In Colossians 1:16-19, the Apostle Paul emphasizes the pre-eminence of the Lord Jesus: "For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him: And He is before all things, and by Him all things consist. And He is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things He might have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father that in Him should all fullness dwell."

Observe that it says: All things were created by Him and for Him—Jesus. This means everything in existence, whether visible or invisible, whether thrones, dominions, principalities, or powers, owe their existence to the Lord Jesus. Also, Ephesians 1:21 (AMPC) unequivocally declares that the Lord Jesus is "Far above all rule and authority and power and dominion and every name that is named [above every title that can be conferred], not only in this age and in this world, but also in the age and the world which are to come."

Therefore, praying in the Name of Jesus is not a religious formality; it’s a privilege, an honour beyond description. His Name is the greatest Name in heaven, on earth, and under the earth. The Bible tells us in Philippians 2:9-10, "Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow…."

Using the Name of Jesus in prayer means you have access to all that He is and all that He has. It means you’re operating with His authority and divine power. When you pray in His Name, you’re aligning yourself with the One who created all things and holds all things together. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the authority of the Name of Jesus and the privilege to pray in that Name and receive answers. I’m grateful for the opportunity to use the Name of Jesus to effect changes and establish your will in the earth and in men’s lives; I walk in the fullness of this power and provision, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY
Philippians 2:9-11 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of [things] in heaven, and [things] in earth, and [things] under the earth; 11 And [that] every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Acts 3:14-16 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you; 15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses. 16 And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

Ephesians 1:20-22 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set [him] at his own right hand in the heavenly [places], 21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: 22 And hath put all [things] under his feet, and gave him [to be] the head over all [things] to the church,

THEME: HIS CRUCIFIXION AND RESURRECTION

THEME SCRIPTURE: For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption (Psalm 16:10).

Everything about the Lord Jesus was prophesied ahead of time: His birth, His life, His death, burial, resurrection, and His glorious ascension to heaven. No wonder He said, “… Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God” (Hebrews 10:7). His crucifixion, for example, was prophesied a thousand years beforehand. The psalmist gave such a beautiful description of it in Psalm 22 (read the entire reference).

The Prophet Zachariah also prophesied about His death in Zechariah 12:10, saying, “…and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him….” This prophecy foretold the piercing of Jesus’ hands and feet, which happened during His crucifixion.

Furthermore, Psalm 16:10 tells us about His resurrection, saying, “For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.” When Jesus died on the Cross, He went to hell because every sinner who died was supposed to go to hell, and Jesus bore the sins of the whole world.

However, in hell, He defeated the devil and the demons of darkness and came triumphantly back to life. Jonah’s experience also foreshadowed His resurrection. Jonah 1:17 says, “… And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.” The Lord Jesus referenced this in Matthew 12:40 NIV, declaring, “For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.”

Psalm 110:1 is prophetic of His exaltation; it says, “The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.” The Lord Jesus affirmed that this prophecy referred to Himself: “While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The Son of David. He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool? If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?" (Matthew 22:41-45).

These prophecies and their fulfilment are essential to understanding the things Jesus said about His death and resurrection. They authenticate the truth that He’s indeed the Son of God—God in human flesh—as Romans 1:4 tells us. It says Jesus is declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead. Blessed be God!

PRAYER
Dear Father, I acknowledge the undeniable proof of your love demonstrated through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Thank you for the victory He wrought for us, and for making us triumphant in Him. I live in the reality of His finished works, proclaiming His Lordship and righteousness to the ends of the earth. Hallelujah!

THEME: YOUR LIFE IS DIFFERENT

THEME SCRIPTURE: 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)

Many today have been conditioned to expect certain ailments or health challenges when they get to a certain age in life. They’ve been told that between ages 45 and 50 their bodies will begin to slow down, certain pains will set in, and at age 60, heart problems may arise. These conclusions have been drawn from mere human wisdom and experience, not divine truth.

As a child of God, your life is different; you’re not an ordinary person. You’re not subject to the limitations and corrupting influences of this world. Never accept the verdict from man’s limited knowledge stemming from the wisdom of this world with respect to your health. Your body is not subject to the elements of this world and the vagaries of nature. You’re in Christ and from Christ where divinity rules.

2 Corinthians 5:17 says, "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." This means no inherited sickness or weakness, because you’re born of God, inundated with eternal life. Your identity is not in your earthly lineage.

It doesn’t matter what ran in your biological family—heart problems, diabetes, high blood pressure, etc.—those things have no hold on you! You’re a new creation in Christ, born into a new family—the family of God. If sickness tries to attach itself to your body, you say, "In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I rebuke this sickness. I remove it from my body!"

Your words have power; use them to establish your divine health. Take charge of your body. Speak in tongues and charge your spirit and then give the Word concerning your health. Your body will respond to the Word of God. You belong to the divine class, full of the life of God! Even now, say, "I refuse to be sick. I live above age-related or environment-related conditions. My blood pressure is normal, my heart is perfect, and all my organs function perfectly. I walk in divine health and strength all my days, in Jesus' Name. Amen."

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the reality of my divine nature in Christ. I refuse to accept the limitations, sicknesses, and conditions that the world prescribes. My body is full of life, health and strength. No infirmity can thrive in me because the Spirit of God quickens my body. I live victoriously, walking in divine health and supernatural vitality, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:
Romans 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

Proverbs 4:20-22 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

THEME: WORDS—YOUR MOST VALUABLE ASSET

THEME SCRIPTURE: For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned (Matthew 12:37).

Not realizing their value and power, many misuse words. They don’t speak correctly. Speaking correctly means speaking in consonance with the Word of God; saying what God has said. Hebrews 13:5-6 says, “...for he hath said…So that we may boldly say….” Words are “things”; they’re living; they’re powerful; they’re creative. Words shape destinies, define realities, and determine outcomes.

If you want to understand why your life is the way it is, review your words; listen to yourself. The words you speak determine your health, your appearance, and even your future. Your thoughts and words shape not just your life but even your physical appearance. That’s because words are thoughts clothed in vocabulary, and every person is a reflection of their thoughts.

Therefore, if words are an expression of thoughts, then your words reveal your character. No one can live beyond the character of their words; your words define you. Have you seen people who constantly look worried, even when they’re not frowning? Their faces carry the imprint of their thoughts and words. Their health, their emotions, and even their physical features are affected by what they’ve been saying and thinking. That’s because your words are the forces that mould your life.

When you speak words of faith, victory, power, success and divine health, your life will align with those words. Proverbs 15:4 says, “A wholesome tongue is a tree of life….” Proverbs 18:21 declares, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.” 1 Peter 3:10 takes it to a climax; it says, “For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile.” Speak the right words, for you’re what you say. What you say is what you get (Mark 11:23). Praise God!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the power of words and the ability to speak and shape my future in line with your perfect will. My words are filled with faith, strength and divine wisdom, bringing health to my body, joy to my spirit and success to my path. I walk in victory always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:
Proverbs 18:21 AMPC; Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life].

James 3:5-6; Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! [6] And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.

Mark 11:23; For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

THEME: HE KNOWS THE DETAILS

THEME SCRIPTURE: Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered (Romans 8:26 NKJV).

Life is full of decisions—some simple, others life-changing. At times, you may find yourself at a crossroads, unsure of what to do. There’s an opportunity open to you, and you’re wondering, should I take it? What’s the best step forward? The good news is this: the Holy Spirit knows the details! Consult with Him and He’ll give you the perfect guidance you need.

Ponder again Paul’s beautiful and inspired words in Romans 8:26 as quoted in the theme verse. The Holy Spirit, knowing all things, knowing the will of God and the mind of the Father, makes intercession for us—not from outside but from within. He prays in you and through you, helping you when you don’t know what to pray for or how to pray.

There’s so much you don’t know about situations, people, and even about your own future. But the Holy Spirit knows and understands the fine details; things about your life, the things beyond human perception, and He intercedes for you accordingly. Imagine having someone who knows exactly what you need and praying in your behalf with divine accuracy. That’s the ministry of the Holy Spirit!

But here’s the key: if you don’t pray in the Spirit, you won’t experience this divine help. You can’t just sit around, sighing and waiting for life to happen, crossing your legs, shifting in your seat, or even shedding tears; that won’t change anything! Someone might even pray, “Dear Father, my case is dire, please pity me.” The Lord has already pitied you—that’s why He sent Jesus and gave you the Holy Spirit.

Look at what the Bible says: "Once you were not a people [at all], but now you are God’s people; once you were unpitied, but now you are pitied and have received mercy" (1 Peter 2:10 AMPC). Did you see that? He’s done everything necessary for your success. The question is, will you take advantage of it now that you have the Intercessor within you?

When you pray in the Spirit, you align yourself with God’s perfect plan. Instead of confusion, you receive clarity. Instead of struggling in uncertainty, you walk in divine precision. Even now, take some time to pray in the Spirit; speak in tongues and stir up the Spirit within you. Glory to God!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the intercessory ministry of the Holy Spirit, who enables me to pray effectively and accurately. I am never helpless or confused because the Holy Spirit guides me in all things. I function with divine wisdom and supernatural ability, effecting changes in my life and circumstances. I walk in the fullness of your provision and live triumphantly every day, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THEME: EQUIPPED AND ENDUED WITH DIVINE ABILITY

THEME SCRIPTURE: But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth (Acts 1:8 ).

There’s a difference between the Holy Spirit coming upon you and the Holy Spirit dwelling in you. From the day of Pentecost in Acts chapter 2, the reason for the Holy Spirit coming upon anyone was to take up residence within them. And that’s what has happened with us. In the Old Testament, He came upon people to enable them to fulfil a specific purpose for a particular time.

Various individuals experienced this, including Elizabeth, upon whom the Holy Spirit came and she was filled with the Holy Ghost: "And it came to pass, that when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost" (Luke 1:41). The Holy Spirit also came upon Samson, empowering him to accomplish mighty feats, but he was not filled with the Holy Ghost: "And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand..." (Judges 14:6).

Now, as one who has received the Holy Spirit, you have been endowed with power to accomplish extraordinary things. The Bible declares, "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you..." (Acts 1:8 ). The word "power" here is from the Greek “dunamis,” meaning the dynamic ability to cause changes.

Consider the significance of this: God says you have received the ability to effect changes. Why then should you remain in an undesirable situation, crying and pleading with God to intervene about things you can change? So, go ahead and effect a change.

After receiving the Holy Spirit, the apostles lived in the reality of His indwelling presence. Each one of them operated in the supernatural. That’s the same life He’s given you. Being filled with the Holy Spirit, you’ve been endued and equipped with divine ability to effect changes and walk in the supernatural every day.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for filling me with the Holy Spirit and empowering me with divine ability to effect changes in my world. I walk in the consciousness of your indwelling presence, manifesting your wisdom, power and glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THEME: CHRISTIANITY: A DIVINE RELATIONSHIP

THEME SCRIPTURE: Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me (John 5:39).

The Christian life is not merely about worshipping or learning the Bible as a storybook. It is a life given to us to live, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week; it’s a divine life. It is the very life and nature of God imparted into the human spirit.

Many go through life without ever encountering the fundamental truths in the Word of God of what Christianity is and who the Christian really is. That’s because they don’t study their Bibles. Yet, Jesus commanded us to search the Scriptures.

He wouldn’t have instructed us to study and search the Scriptures if there weren’t valuable treasures for us to discover. Paul also exhorted us to study, not just read the Word, for there’re depths of revelation that can’t be accessed without study. In studying the Scriptures you’d discover that as Christians, we have a real and living relationship with God. That’s no religion!

All our outward actions, such as praying, giving offerings, studying the Bible and gathering in fellowships are not what define Christianity. True Christianity is the actual relationship with God, where one is born of Him, receiving His divine nature. This is a definite experience that occurs at a particular moment in time.

One cannot be uncertain about when it happened, for it’s a conscious and transformative encounter with the living God, without which all the outward actions are empty. But when you're in this vital relationship with the Lord, each act of worship and devotion releases tremendous power and holds eternal significance. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for bringing me into an actual, real, tangible and living relationship with you. I am born of you, filled with your Spirit, and I walk daily in the reality of my oneness with you, conscious of my divine nature, and manifesting your love, wisdom and power to my world. Thank you for the privilege of knowing and living in this truth, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

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

Colossians 1:26-27 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: 27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

1 John 5:11-12 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

2 Peter 1:4 AMPC By means of these He has bestowed on us His precious and exceedingly great promises, so that through them you may escape [by flight] from the moral decay (rottenness and corruption) that is in the world because of covetousness (lust and greed), and become sharers (partakers) of the divine nature.
