Topic: Push the Button ✝️

The Spirit's Word: Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
James 4:7 KJV



Have you ever seen a safety or emergency button? Today, there is no corporation or infrastructure without a safety system. Spiritually there is such a thing as a safety button. It is nothing but the Word. The Word is the arsenal we use against the devil. Please note, it is the Word of God, and not your own words. Don't try to manufacture some lexicons that sound scriptural, based on your own wisdom. It won't work against the devil. The Word is the sword, hammer, fire and truth we are equipped with to call Satan's bluff. Yes, call his bluff. He is a stunt figure. As long as you are a child of God, he has no power over you. We have been delivered from his domain. Just remain submitted to God, and His Word. That's what the opening verse tells us. Satan flees at the Word, and the blood of the Lamb. Revelation 12:11. Nothing else on earth has power over him. Jesus overcame by His blood, and has now given us the same victory through faith in Him. Jesus resisted him with the Word. Don't fear his tactics and schemes. All you have to do when you perceive his motions, is to give the Word to Him. You've to learn how to address the devil, and not just God. This is not prayer. We pray to God, and intercede for all men. As for Satan, cast him out.

One time, I thought the devil had made a mess of all that God was doing in my life. The things I saw brought fear and panic. Then the Holy Ghost spoke to me saying, "there is no devil that can stop the work of God in your life" . What a comfort that the Comforter gives. From that day, He taught me how to push the button. Once I see, or hear, or perceive the movement of the enemy, I just push the button. You've to know the Word without carrying the Bible here and there, because you need to speak the Word always. The enemy is a stunt man. He only needs your cooperation and permission to operate. Don't let him. Tell him what is written, and he flees. Use the blood against him, and he will disappear. David told us: The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places. Psalms 18:45. When God created the earth, He gave man only, dominion over it and all its content. Since the devil wants to remain on earth, dominate him as often as you see fit. You will remain in fear as long as you don't learn or study the Word. The Word is your armour.

Reminder: Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
2 Timothy 2:15 KJV

Topic: Tabernacle of David ✝️

The Spirit's Word: After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.
Acts 15:16‭-‬17 KJV


The above Scripture was quoted by Apostle James. The Apostles were just coming to terms with the idea of salvation to the gentiles. The tabernacle of David is about the Covenant God made with him, which is fulfilled in Christ. Jesus was the son of David, after the flesh, but Lord of David after the Spirit. Luke 20:41-44. It is not a physical building. We are the temple of God. 1 Corinthians 6:19. Those buildings of old were only a shadow of what is to come. Colossians 2:17. Let's not get carried away. Jesus is the fulfillment of the Covenant God made with all the patriachs of old. He also had this to say: “believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
John 4:21‭-‬24. This is why spirituality in the new Covenant is not a light thing. Without it, you can't go far with God.

The original prophecy can be found in Amos chapter nine. It was called the Tent of David because King David appointed in it singers to worship God night and day. Now that Jesus has fulfilled the rites of sacrifice in the temple with respect to oblation, atoning with the blood of animals, etc., what we now have left is to offer sacrifice of praise unto God. Hebrews 13:15. Deeper union with God calls for a sacrifice of self. Romans 12:1. David was a king who praised God like no other, and God dwells in the praises of Israel, both Jews and gentiles. Psalm 22:3. David's tabernacle is one of praise, worship and thanksgiving. Jesus finished the works of our redemption, and so, sits on the right of God. Romans 8:34. A clear understanding of what this means will guide you into that same rest. The purpose of the Father is to appoint unto all His chosen ones - that we also enter into the same rest that Christ attained. This rest will never come without death to self and yielding to Christ. When these are in place, Christ will raise you up from the grave, and give you the same authority and peace He received from the Father.

Reminder: For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
Hebrews 4:8‭-‬11 KJV

Topic: Knowing What To Do ✝️

The Spirit's Word: Nevertheless, lest we offend them, go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you have opened its mouth, you will find a piece of money; take that and give it to them for Me and you.”
Matthew 17:27 NKJV


There was a time Jesus and Peter were in Capernaum, and some tax collectors came for their taxes. Obviously, there was no money on them (Judas was the treasurer). Our Lord is flawless, and wiser than the wisest. He already knew what to do. How did He know that there would be money in the mouth of the fish that Peter takes up first? He was in constant communion with the Father. He testified this of Himself when He said:... I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
John 8:28. He lived in perfect obedience to the Father. He also saw the Father in action daily as He separated Himself very early in the mornings to pray and seek the face of God. We would do well if we lived this kind of life. The Father wants to show us things, secrets that are hid from all the spirits in the world. There are deep things hidden in God. We may try to reason out many things, but man's wisdom is altogether nothing compared to that of God. Remember what Jesus said: I am the light of the world: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. John 8:12. You can know so much.

Studying the Bible is an excellent thing, no doubt, but it doesn't replace hearing from God. We can get all the head knowledge on the Word. However, there is a difference between knowledge and revelation. Many have the whole Bible upstairs, but have never heard God speak to them. Hearing the voice of God is not rocket science. The Bible tells us: the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
John 10:3‭-‬4. The sheep hears the voice of its Shepherd. If you haven't been hearing the voice, why not ask the Father to open your ears. Spiritual deafness is a disability, and thus, the work of the enemy. Don't give it a rest until you hear the voice of your Heavenly Father. You need to push through with prayers, studying more and more of the word, fasting, and being quiet before God. It takes perseverance also to hear from Him for He is a King. Patience is manifestation of peace. His voice comes with peace and stillness. Hearing from God will definitely put you above mediocrity and cluelessness. He knows all things.

Reminder: And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
Isaiah 30:21 KJV

Topic: Live in His Bounty ✝️

The Spirit's Word: O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. O fear the Lord , ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.
Psalms 34:8‭-‬10 KJV

Kindly read the opening Scripture more than once. Digest it. It has the solution to what many are challenged with. Many are in lack and want. Even the Bible tells us that the poor will always be here on earth. You don't have to be in that lot. You can actually live in the bounty of our gracious God. We are instructed to taste and see. How to taste and see His goodness is the big question. God is not insecure, neither is He uncertain about His abilities. He can do all things. Let's recall the children of Israel in the wilderness. They ate manna and meat for 40 years in the wilderness, without sowing and reaping. This is reality. God can do all things, and also exceedingly and abundantly beyond all we can ask and think. Ephesians 3:20. Have you been overwhelmed by God yet? Perhaps you've heard how God blessed people financially, and you wonder when it will be your turn, just be in love with God. It's the secret. Remove all guile, pride, offence, unforgivingness, deception, etc., from your heart. Wasn't it the Lord that fed the multitude with miracle bread and fish? He did this twice. John 6, Mark 8, Matthew 14-15. How can we say He was poor, when He did all these things? He even had a treasurer in the person of Judas for helping the poor. John 13:29.

If you would just love God, all it takes is for Him to open your eyes. He doesn't need to rain manna or quails from heaven, neither would He make money miraculously appear in your room. He would open your eyes to see money everywhere you turn. This is a secret many will never understand. The Psalmist said: The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him;... he will shew them his Covenant. Psalms 25:14. To fear God is to love Him wholeheartedly, and also do what He commands. What is this Covenant God wants to show the one who fears and loves Him? But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. Deuteronomy 8:18. We have to remember God in all we do - in our thoughts, words, and actions. It's a matter of the heart, to first consider God before doing, saying and thinking. To love is to give, and giving means all of you, back to God and your neighbours. If you're not living this sacrificial life everyday, then it's still a mirage.

Reminder: Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
Luke 6:38 KJV.

Topic: God's Prophets ✝️

The Spirit's Word: Early in the morning they left for the Desert of Tekoa. As they set out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, “Listen to me, Judah and people of Jerusalem! Have faith in the Lord your God and you will be upheld; have faith in his prophets and you will be successful.”
2 Chronicles 20:20 NIV

The devil has done great harm to the idea of prophets. Many who God has called into this office have not prepared themselves well enough to differentiate the voice of God from that of strangers. Let us be real, there are still prophets of God even today. The fact that many of them now do the devil's bidding unknowingly does not give us the right to totally rule out the idea of prophets. The spiritual plane is made up of good and bad. Satan and his minions are still on the prowl until their appointed time of being cast into the lake of fire. The onus is on every believer to be discerning. This is why we must be grounded in the Word of Truth, and of His grace. Know the Word of God for yourself. 1 Timothy 4:15, 2 Timothy 2:15. With this said, it is also important to have prophets around you. God may not show a prophet something about someone who is unknown to the prophet. But when you have crossed paths with a prophet, that way God can always give a message to you via that prophet. God's way of sending His Word can be through a warning, encouragement, plans for the future, calling in life, reprove, correction, instructions, etc. 2 Timothy 3:16-17. We know that scriptures were written by God's servants as they heard the voice of the Holy Ghost.

Don't be quick to push away prophecies. It can change your story. God is willing to speak to His people through dreams, visions, and also His prophets. Many can't interpret their dreams and visions, so they cast them off as insignificant. We must be ready to learn. We must also be ready to prove every word we hear from His prophets. I have seen situations change in the lives of many because God's word came for them. Many are going through a labyrinth of issues that they can't even share with anyone. But a word from God will always bring comfort, and a way forward. The opening Scripture saw Jehoshaphat relying in the Lord through His prophet. The Word came, and so did the victory. Think about all the prophets that God gave to the Kings of Israel and his people. If there were no prophets they may never have gotten those victories against heathen nations and tribes. Thank God, there are always men God separates for his people. Everyone may not hear the voice of God, but God's message can always be passed through His servants. Don't follow those that ridicule prophets today. A prophet can bring life and fortune.

Reminder: When Prophet Elijah thought he was the only one left of God's servants, God's reply was that 7,000 of his servants were reserved in the same nation. 1 Kings 19.

The Spirit's Word: Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. 2 Thessalonians 2:3‭, ‬6‭-‬7 KJV


Just last night, the Lord was speaking to me, to pray against the darkness, because Revelation chapter thirteen is about to play out. It's about the 666 agenda. We have to understand this is prophecy, and must surely come to pass. However, there is an appointed time for it. The opening Scripture tells us we are the ones to prevent the man of sin from being revealed before his time. Another version puts it this way: The hidden plan to live without any law is at work now, but it will be secret only until the one who is holding it back is out of the way.
2 Thessalonians 2:7 CEB. This is real. Looking at the legislature in most developed regions, we can say the New World Order has only one theme: lawlessness. They want to appeal to people's emotions and senses - that you can do anything you want to do. Removing God from every function, they mock religion, but still believe in governance. Order is not only via governance, every sector of life must be guided by law and order. We must be aware that there are human proponents of this lawlessness, who share table with devils. Satan can only work through human beings.

By the grace of God, the church isn't sleeping. It takes one man in the Spirit to thwart the works of darkness. Why did I say this? The Bible tells us: Ye are of God little children and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4. For this reason, we must be more prayerful than ever. As I prayed, I wondered how many of God's ministers, prophets, Apostles, Pastors, etc., are aware of what is currently going on in the shadows. It grieved my heart that many in church still live like they don't perceive the times we are in. We must pray and also exhibit the love of God. Love is the greatest power. Where there is hatred, be sure to find the enemy apparently more powerful that he really is. God told me it is His love being manifested that turns stony hearts into fleshy hearts. We must walk in love more than ever. In as much as we are closer to the rapture of the church than ever, our cooperation with God will prevent the enemy from moving before his appointed time. All it takes is one man to stand in the gap. God is calling out his priests to stop every evil confederacy.

Reminder: And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Matthew 16:19 KJV

Topic: Pray Against The Darkness ✝️

The Spirit's Word: Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. 2 Thessalonians 2:3‭, ‬6‭-‬7 KJV

Topic: Singularity is Holiness ✝️

The Spirit's Word: The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness! Matthew 6:22‭-‬23 KJV

The first words God spoke was "let there be light". Light is the first thing, being the substance of God, which is holiness. Seeing is one of the most important things in life. God spoke light before creation because He had to see what the situation was, and what needs to be done to correct what went wrong. Light is the foundation of God. Without light, what we have is darkness, evil, chaos, anarchy, and all manner of wickedness. The opening Scripture tells us to have a single eye, which means our eyes must be holy, both physically and spiritually. God's eyes are too holy to behold iniquity. Habakkuk 1:13. This is a literal truth. God can't look upon evil. He only knows it by His omniscience. What does this tell us? The more evil works you behold, tolerate, accept, indulge, trivialise, demonstrate, and commit, the more darkness floods your life. The eye is the gate. Today, the media is full of all manner evil concupiscence, because the enemy with his craftiness knows that's how to catch men. A lot of people are bound by pornography, leading to inordinate sexual engagements. Don't be ignorant of Satan's devices. He steals light.

The Scripture is talking about believers who have exchanged their light with darkness. If the light in you be darkness, how great is that darkness. The unbeliever has no light. The light of men is the life of God. John 1:5. You must expose every hidden work of darkness in your life. Don't keep it secret. Darkness thrives in secrecy. The more you try to hide that sin, the more it occupies your life and becomes a real stranglehold. Don't let Satan kill you. There is no sin that is beyond man's ability to overcome. If you have the Holy Ghost, you can actually be free. Hear what Paul said: And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleeps, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. Ephesians 5:11‭-‬14. Make no mistakes about it, if darkness thrives in your life, it is death. Light equals to life. Many are in many kinds of bondage. You can be free. Expose the sin, and watch such strongholds break off from you. Let sincerity reign.

Reminder: No one has power over your will. Choose to yield to God, and His Word. Take it one day at a time. Resist evil by submitting to God. Abstain from all appearance of evil.

Topic: From Rejection To Approval ✝️

The Spirit's Word: And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner: This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
Mark 12:10‭-‬11 KJV

Our God is marvellous and specialises in doing marvellous acts. He did it for so many in the Bible. The world seeks to bring you down, but God is looking for men to exalt. The stone which the builders rejected and despised became the most important of all. Are you in a situation where men, and the circumstances of life has thrown all manner of darts at you? If only you would turn to God today. He can change your story. He did it for King David. A young Shepherd boy becomes a king, and a most victorious one at that. Don't look for man's approval. It is God that approves forever. Men can't bring you to lasting honour and glory. Only God can lift up a man to the point that nothing, except himself and God, can bring him down again.He approved of Hannah by making her to bare children, thereby ending barrenness. People don't celebrate you until God changes your story. You may use tricks to promote yourself. It won't last, because promotion comes from God alone. Psalm 75:6-7. Tricks come with shame. It may paint a false picture of glory and honour at first, but make no mistake, the end is reproach. Proverbs 20:21; 14:12.

God's eyes are ever on the poor, the oppressed, downtrodden, and afflicted. His mercy and compassion is drawn to the righteous and suffering one. It isn't a hard thing for God to change anyone's story. He is eager to do it. It is His will for everyone to prosper and be at peace. However, He is also bound by His Word. There has to be a seeking, and searching for God. There must be a calling out to Him. And this must be in truth. There's nothing more blessed than loving God. Don't be offended in Him. He is the solution to problems, and not the cause of anything that makes for shame, pain or affliction.
Jesus lamented over Jerusalem, because He longed to gather His people together, and be one with them, but they refused and denied Him. Luke 13:34. That is God's heart - to be one with us. He longs to endorse us to the world. Surely, we that believe are reconciled to Him, and as such, approved. But there is an approval that makes for a glorious manifestation. All men will see the seal of God in a life God marks out. Except you don't want that. Don't ignore there is a higher plane to arrive at. God's favour is only reserved for them that love Him genuinely. 1 Corinthians 2:9. Don't remain in man's rejection. Latch unto God, and let Him approve of you.

Reminder: He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill; That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people. Psalms 113:7‭-‬8 KJV

Topic: Let Him Find Nothing ✝️

The Spirit's Word: I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in Me.
John 14:30 NKJV

We're in the days of God's grace and mercy. This means that God is not imputing sin to anyone who is born again. Jesus dealt with the sin problem. He took all our sins in His Body when He was crucified, died and buried. He descended into hell as '' sinful Jesus'', but was raised to life as glorious Lord. He didn't return from hell with our sins, but left them there. Hence, He testified, "it is finished". He also spoiled or overcame Satan and his cohorts, when He made an open show of principalities and powers. Colossians 2:15. He rendered the enemy powerless, and stripped him of all his armour. Any power you find the devil wielding today is the one man gave back to him because of sin. Satan is a thief, and he doesn't just steal physical things, but much more, spiritual things. He comes for the gifts of God in a man's life. He wants that power, strength, wisdom, riches, glory, honour and blessings. Make no doubt that he will get it once he comes and finds what belongs to him in you. For this reason, the Lord told us that the evil prince of this world will always come, but He mustn't find anything that belongs to him in your members. Lies, uncleanness, sexual immorality, stealing, evil eye, gossip, evil talks, and the likes, will deposit the filth of the enemy in you life.

Sin is a doctrine. The Bible talks about the mystery of iniquity. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
2 Thessalonians 2:7. This means that sin is more than an action. It is a spirit in itself. Don't ever think you can sin, and still be free. Thanks to God for the blood that cleanses us. When the blood cleanses us after we have sinned, what about what the enemy stole. For this reason, God can't use a vessel that is not sanctified. We limit ourselves and spiritual ability or potential when we let sin persist. Hear what God said: If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. Genesis 4:7. God identifies sin as a personality. It is the reason for the dark places of the earth that's full of cruelty. Psalm 74:20. It is also the reason the earth was without form, void, and had darkness. Genesis 1:2. So, next time you think of sinning, God will not judge you, or condemn you. It is the enemy that comes. This is where people miss the grace message. It's not time for God to judge anyone. We are in His era of grace and mercy, nevertheless the enemy is the one that pays the wages of sin. Romans 6:23.

Reminder: He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.

Topic: Don't Trigger The Curse ✝️

The Spirit's Word: Then I turned and raised my eyes, and saw there a flying scroll. Then he said to me, “This is the curse that goes out over the face of the whole earth: ‘Every thief shall be expelled,’ according to this side of the scroll; and, ‘Every perjurer shall be expelled,’ according to that side of it.” “I will send out the curse, ” says the Lord of hosts; “It shall enter the house of the thief And the house of the one who swears falsely by My name. It shall remain in the midst of his house And consume it, with its timber and stones.” Zechariah 5:1‭, ‬3‭-‬4 NKJV

We live in a day where thieves are celebrated. Once one is assigned a position of authority or responsibility, most often than not, he or she ends up stealing or misappropriating funds or diverting money that is supposed to be for a particular task. This same group of people will throw stones at a thief that stole to feed his family or solve the hunger problem. There is no difference. There is no white thief. The Bible is clear, there is a curse in the house of he that steals. I found it amazing that the other side of the scroll is for the perjurer. There is no thief that doesn't lie or swear falsely. For you to be a thief in the first place, you have to be a "good liar" . The thief is one that has a thought-out plan. He meditates on how and where to go about his misdemeanor. Such will have prepared an answer for every possible question or accusation that might be made at them. You may not carry guns, but changing figures and pocketing that which was not given to you is stealing. Before I discovered the above Scripture, I was also guilty of some these things. I have also been in positions where people have called me names because I didn't yield to their bidding. Don't trigger a curse that lingers to generations after you.

It is only the fear of God that keeps men from stealing and lying. If you still find yourself in these iniquities, understand that God isn't pleased with such. He doesn't want a curse upon you, especially when you are His child. The funny thing is that, it's not only this curse from God that applies to a thief. Even the people will curse such a person. When Government funds are misappropriated, the people are grieved. Many curses are flying in the air from such pained souls. Hear what the Preacher said: He that withholds corn, the people shall curse him.
Proverbs 11:26. When you deny people what ought to be theirs, they will curse you. It's a normal thing for people to react in such a way to oppression. If you love your family and your generation yet to be born, you will not engage in any form of theft. Whether it is pilfering, theft, diversion, hoarding, inflating, etc., it is not worth it. Some people get involved with other people's venture in other to get gains. When they do, they are like predators that search for unsuspecting preys, who have no idea the actual worth of that good or service, and so they call out ridiculous cost or amount. Don't be wise in your own eyes. It is a great sin.

Reminder: Don't give or do to people what you won't take or accept.

Topic: Whose I am ✝️

The Spirit's Word:
For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, Acts 27:23 KJV


In Christianity, we don't talk about self, but who owns us. We are bought with a price, which is the blood of Jesus Christ. Paul could boast about who owns him, because God will never fail those who obey Him. The issue is not about making a name for yourself,but proclaiming God and His Word. The day we receive Jesus into our lives, what happened was an agreement to no longer live for self but for Him. It would be a struggle when you still live for self, and expect God to do something about your situation. Paul had this to say: For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. Colossians 3:3. We are called to live a hidden life of self, but demonstrate the glorious life of Christ in us. Can you boldly say what Paul said: whose I am? How yielded or surrendered are you to God? For all the things Paul suffered, it didn't stop him from doing what God called him to do. And then, he finished his race, and that was when he was martyred. 2 Timothy 4:7. We can choose to deceive our hearts by thinking it doesn't matter, we all belong to God. Yes, we all belong to God, but you can still end up a frustrated Christian if you don't let God find complete expression through you.

Galatians 2:20 says we are crucified with Christ. It means we are dead, but alive only in Him. To be alive in Christ, is to have your will surrendered to Him, because the old you died. In Him we live, move and have our being. What does this tell us? Only in Him; according to His will, purpose, and character can we live a successful life. It is now Christ alive in you. So, we can say that we belong to Him, and at the same time have His testimony that we are his'. When God speaks once, it is both to the spiritual, then to the physical. For this reason, we hear twice. Psalm 62:11. We must think what He wants, and not what we want. That's how to live a surrendered life. Don't be caught up in your own issues, apart from Christ. That's a life of mediocrity. Let Christ always find expression through you, over and over again. Even when men disappoint and hurt you, that's the best time to rise up to the occasion. Without a setback, how can you show or prove that you have the nature of Christ. The essence of Christ is to show God's goodness, grace and mercy in a dark, evil and wicked world. He was called Christ on earth. Jesus is not going to save anyone in heaven, for they don't need salvation. When next you say, "I belong to Jesus", back it up with total submission.

Reminder: And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. 2 Corinthians 5:15 KJV

Topic: Whose I am ✝️

The Spirit's Word:
For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, Acts 27:23 KJV


In Christianity, we don't talk about self, but who owns us. We are bought with a price, which is the blood of Jesus Christ. Paul could boast about who owns him, because God will never fail those who obey Him. The issue is not about making a name for yourself,but proclaiming God and His Word. The day we receive Jesus into our lives, what happened was an agreement to no longer live for self but for Him. It would be a struggle when you still live for self, and expect God to do something about your situation. Paul had this to say: For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. Colossians 3:3. We are called to live a hidden life of self, but demonstrate the glorious life of Christ in us. Can you boldly say what Paul said: whose I am?

Topic: Not Beyond You ✝️

The Spirit's Word:
For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
Hebrews 12:3‭-‬4 KJV


Whenever you are going through temptations, trials, tribulation, or persecution, always remember this Scripture. As long as it hasn't reached the point of life and death, it is not beyond you. You can be victorious. We have Jesus as our example. As a man, it was Him alone against the world. He didn't yield to the many contradictions that faced Him headlong. He got to the point of life and death, and chose the later just because of us. There is nothing that can ever happen to a man that God hasn't given us control over. The Lord told us to be of good cheer, as He overcame the world. John 16:33. This Scripture is for us. God is God any day, and anytime. We must take His Word for the truth that it is. We can go past excuses we make everyday. We can be victorious everyday. This is not to deny the troubles. There is no Christian that wouldn't face troubles in this world. The world only loves its own. We are not of the world. It is a proof that you belong to God, when the world kicks against you, and we have what it takes to resist. When we put up a fight, we can be sure that we will be strengthened. This is one of the ways God can promote us. Every level, and realm has its own opposition.

Life is not a bed of roses. In as much as we confess the scriptures that appeal to us, we must never live a life of illusions where we believe bad things don't happen. I always tell people, we must be as watchful and sensitive as possible. Before a sickness comes, there is first, a symptom, then another. Don't give room for the fiery dart of the enemy to gain full penetration. Once you notice the smallest problem, that's the time to resist. It is better to kill a snake that has only its head in the hedge, that for the snake to completely enter into the building. Always rise up to the occasion. You're first a watchman to yourself, before others. God will never leave you completely oblivious to what the enemy is about to do. That's far from His nature. For this reason, we are told to watch and pray. What many don't realise is that Jesus places watching before praying. If your watching is accurate, you will know how, and when to pray. Let it not be that your praying is just throwing blows in the air. Everything isn't automatic. For this reason, there is efficiency and effectiveness of process. To be effective spiritually, we must really understand what happens in the spiritual realm.

Reminder: Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 1 Peter 5:8‭-‬9 KJV

Topic: People God ✝️

The Spirit's Word:
The earth is the Lord's , and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
Psalms 24:1 KJV

God is interested in people. He died for people. For this reason, He's also concerned about the vocation people are engaged in. I have heard some men of God give prophecies with respect to sports, and this has raised the eyebrows of some who are not discerning. They say things like, "with all the problems in the world, God chose this topic to speak about''. And for this reason, they lightly esteem such prophecies. Surely, there are fakes out there. However, as long as your vocation doesn't deny, or gainsay the truth of God, He is not against you. Everybody isn't called to religion or the clergy. Don't be too spiritual that you miss the entire purpose of God. God wants to have His people in sports, politics, economics, media, and all other unclerical occupation. He is interested in people, first, before any other thing. Today, we know there are some ungodly jobs such as prostitution, which is completely against the will of God. He still wants to show this set of people His love. God is more interested in bringing about a transformation in your life through His love than through religion or the fear of hell. He is love, and this love is in the direction of people. Angels haven't seen the love of God the way and manner God has demonstrated it towards man. Hebrews 1:5.

It is good a man identifies His calling. We have been gifted in many ways, and also in diverse manifestations. Never see one calling as more important than another. With God, there is no competition. If you chose to bring competition, or contempt, then the principle of "first shall be last" will hold strong in your life. It's the way of God, because when you make yourself the least, He exalts and promotes you. However, when you make yourself the first, and think everyone else is doing something that isn't as special as what you are doing, then He makes you last. Don't be like those that say they love God with their mouths, but despise people with their words and actions. It's pure deceit. Loving God is loving people. There is no action God will instruct a man to do, that isn't towards the benefit of people. If God tells you to sow a seed or give a sacrificial offering, He isn't the One to benefit from that but people. When He tells you to be holy, it is not for His benefit. It still boils down to people. God wants to use a man to reach people. You cry for power and glory. Who will you use it to minister to, if not people. The best life is one that is void of selfishness. You can start making adjustments in order for your life to be sweet towards people. This is what pleases God. Loving God, and loving people are two separate commandments, but totally tied together. Keeping one alone can't suffice.

Reminder: Treat others as you want them to treat you. This is what the Law and the Prophets are all about. Matthew 7:12 CEV

Topic: Sexual Sins ✝️

The Spirit's Word:
Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
1 Corinthians 6:18 KJV


Fornication, adultery, and sexual perversion are sins that connects one to demons. It gives demons the right to invade your body which is the temple of God. The temple of God must be holy at all times. We have to understand that God needs permission to work in and with us. We are responsible for what happens to our bodies. The enemy only wants to desecrate man, and make him unusable by God. Your body is a house, and a city. Matthew 5:14. When you allow these sins, you automatically join yourself to these demons, who become strangers and aliens that infiltrate your system. These demons have one mission: steal, kill, and destroy. You grant them unrestricted access. When God tells us not to indulge in these sins, it is for our own good. The Holy Ghost is both with and in us. But He will not abide in us, and cohabit with devils. Neither will he drive them out for you, because the same way you granted Him access, is the same way you grant these devils. When we grant these aliens permission, He has no other choice but to leave. For this reason, the doctrine of sanctification is crucial. Many don't want to hear messages on sanctification, but we have to cooperate with God.

Cooperating with God is to live a life of holiness and righteousness. There is nothing clean or holy about demons. They are repugnant, stinking, desecrating, and less than the scum of the earth. They are called unclean spirits for that reason. Many people will not stay in a house where someone has defecated openly. But what we fail to understand is that, when we commit these sins against our bodies, the enemy comes in to pollute everything within. The kind of visions I used to see when the Holy Ghost started a sanctification work in my life astonished me. Many people don't realise that grace can't replace sanctification. Grace only replaced the righteousness of the law. For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. John 1:17. God is holy. He expects us to be holy. If it was impossible, He wouldn't have asked us to be holy. 1 Peter 1:16. Don't have that mindset that you have to yield to these sins from time to time. For this reason, we are told to renew our minds. We've got to believe the Word above popular opinions. People assume as a result of their personal experiences. The first step to living this life of holiness is to believe it is possible. Then trust the Holy Spirit to work on you, while you cooperate with Him. If you are still living a life that's not conscious of the abiding presence of the Holy Ghost, you are far from living a holy life.

Reminder: Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
James 4:8 KJV. Read Psalm 51:7.

Topic: God's Backing ✝️

The Spirit's Word:
And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in his mouth: and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do. And thou shalt take this rod in thine hand, wherewith thou shalt do signs.
Exodus 4:15‭, ‬17 KJV

We must recognise that God is on the look out for men who would do His will on earth. Once God finds one who is ready, like Isaiah said, "here am I, send me", He will back that person with all that is required to bring that mission to His perfect will. God can't work outside faith. For this reason, we have some who've had spiritual encounters. These encounters, like Moses and the burning Bush, are for those who have a high calling, that your faith alone in the Scriptures may not suffice. He appears to men and women to make sure they see and believe. You can't doubt what you see. Even an illusion appears real, let alone the real image. By all means, God will do all that it takes to get your faith at its peak. Moses was the one to deliver the children of Israel from Egypt. He would have to contend with all the forces of darkness, and the Pharaoh who could have him killed just by a word. Ecclesiastes 8:4. Hence, God had to ensure Moses knew with all certainty that He had his back. Make no mistake, we walk by faith and not by sight. Moreover, there are experiences that we have never imagined that could come up in the course of our mission. Encounters are God's way to instill courage.

We all know that God doesn't appear to everyone. It is not that He can't or doesn't want to. I have discovered that those who, without supernatural encounters, yet follow up with God as though they've had encounters, are most pleasing to God. God is pleased with men who continue with Him, even though they haven't seen Him. Apostle Peter said: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
1 Peter 1:7‭-‬8. Don't wait for encounters. Keep believing and trusting God. He has your back. If you get encounters, that's great and precious. However, to whom much is given, much more will be required. Luke 12:48. The Word of God will never fail. As long as you do what is required in His Word, according to how He designed the pattern, His Word is more sure than any encounter. And look that thou make them after their pattern, which was shewed thee in the mount. Exodus 25:40.

Reminder: And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 1:19‭-‬21 NKJV

Topic: More Given, Little Taken ✝️

The Spirit's Word:
And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given. For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath. Mark 4:24‭-‬25 KJV

The above statement was made by Jesus. Many Christians find this aspect of His speech incomprehensible. Do you think it's unfair or unjust? Let's not forget the Lord told us never to cast our pearls before swine, nor what is holy to dogs. Matthew 7:6. The principles of the Kingdom of God is for as many who can accept it. There is the doctrine of election. Heaven is not for all. It is sad, but true. God wants all men to be saved, but not all men want this. Before He made the above statement, He had been teaching the people about the Kingdom. However, He taught them in riddles or parables. He also told His disciples that the truth is available to them who are within, while the outsiders will have it only when they are ready for it. Many follow Jesus for what they can get from Him. He chided the multitude for persisting with Him because He fed them with bread. John 6:26. Many are in the Church, but have no spirituality. Paul calls them: Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 2 Timothy 3:7. Until the heart is right, there is no reformation. Until our motives are pure, there can be no transformation or fruitfulness. It's the reason many have been in Christ, and are yet to see any materialisation.

Saying something to two people can be heard differently. He told us to be careful of what we hear. It's not everyone that attends a Bible conference that will get a hundredfold harvest. Some may come out of that place worse that they got there in the first place. We must make sure our hearts are not twisted. Remove every form of guile or deceit. Don't be critical of truth. Don't assume a posture of a readiness to argue with truth. It is not profitable at all. Jesus says we must accept the kingdom like little children before we can enter into it. Luke 18:16. Little children don't question what they are told. We can't take some scriptures and reject another. They are one and the same. It is the same Lord that inspired all scriptures. Recall the Israelites were always rebellious towards God, and He made their eyes shut, and their ears waxed so they may not perceive the truth and be converted. Isaiah 6:9-10. We also had some Israelites Kings who ruled with perfect hearts, and some without a perfect heart. With the right heart, you would definitely feel after God and seek Him. Acts 17:27. He will never withhold anything good when you truly come after Him. The state of your heart matters a lot to God. Don't keep asking vain questions like God is a mystery, or an enigma that can never be understood. That's not a good heart.

Reminder:...that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Romans 1:19‭-‬20 KJV

Topic: More Given, Little Taken ✝️

The Spirit's Word:
And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given. For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath. Mark 4:24‭-‬25 KJV

The above statement was made by Jesus. Many Christians find this aspect of His speech incomprehensible. Do you think it's unfair or unjust? Let's not forget the Lord told us never to cast our pearls before swine, nor what is holy to dogs. Matthew 7:6. The principles of the Kingdom of God is for as many who can accept it. There is the doctrine of election. Heaven is not for all. It is sad, but true. God wants all men to be saved, but not all men want this. Before He made the above statement, He had been teaching the people about the Kingdom. However, He taught them in riddles or parables. He also told His disciples that the truth is available to them who are within, while the outsiders will have it only when they are ready for it. Many follow Jesus for what they can get from Him. He chided the multitude for persisting with Him because He fed them with bread. John 6:26. Many are in the Church, but have no spirituality. Paul calls them: Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 2 Timothy 3:7. Until the heart is right, there is no reformation. Until our motives are pure, there can be no transformation or fruitfulness. It's the reason many have been in Christ, and are yet to see any materialisation.
