Monday 7th September,2020. 

Hello and a lovely Monday to you in the name of Jesus.

Today is the second Monday in the month of September and we thank God because we are moving forward. It takes men and women of great conviction to change the world. Without conviction we can't change anything. The stronger our conviction is, the deeper our conviction is, the more robust our conviction is, then we are positioned to conquer.

Last week, our focus was about our conviction being our faith and the things we need to have convistion in. This week, we will be looking at the things we should point our conviction at, if we need to conquer. We are talking about conviction to conquer, this week we will be focusing on conviction to conquer but to conquer anything you need to focus your conviction on that thing.

So we first take our conviction and root it then we focus it on the mountain, on the challenge or situation until it moves. For Abraham, the issue was that God has promised him a son, his wife was old, his body was old. So he took his root down into God's promise, he stood on God's promise but then he pointed his conviction on delivering Isaac and Isaac he got.

1 John 5:4(NKJV) says"4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world our Faith". Remember, our faith is our conviction.

It takes conviction to overcome the world, whatever is out there that is challenging you, challenging me we need to focus our conviction on it and it will come down.

I remember the story of the young boy David. David was a simple shepherd boy taking care of his father's flock. His father called him one day and said "Go to the battle field, go and give your brother some food and check how they are doing". So David packed things and he went to the battle front and as he got there he saw Goliath challenging everybody and as Goliath was talking, everybody was hiding including the king. David heard it and said; "who in the world is this man? I am going to challenge him." They took what David said to Saul and said; "Listen, this young man said he can face him" and Saul said; " You can't face Goliath, he is a trained warrior" David said" King I can face him and I can kill him! You know why? I don't fight my battle, God fights my battles for me. I have faced the lion in the past, I have faced the bear and God helped me, I killed them and the same way God helped me to kill the lion and the bear because God fights my battles, God will fight this battle for me". So he said "I have pointed my Faith, my conviction at the lion, at the bear and I am pointing my conviction now at Goliath and he will be dead". The moment he did that, he went into the battle field and his conviction prevailed. Goliath went down. 

So put your  conviction in God and put it His promise, put it in His love, put it in His power to deliver, put it in His grace but after that, point it to the challenge you are facing. It might be a health condition, a financial condition, point your faith at it and watch your Faith conquer.

Thank you for listening today.

God bless you! God keep you!!

Have a lovely day.

 Sunday 6th September,2020 .

Hello and a lovely morning to you in the name of Jesus.

God is good and we say all the time. God is always good. He is not good because he does good. He is good because that is His nature. It is important we are convinced that God is love, His nature is love. God is kind, His nature is kindness. God is good, His nature is goodness. You know the word "good" once you remove the "O" from it,it becomes "God". So God is good!

It is important you are convinced no matter what you are going through, no matter what your experience has been, it is important you are convinced of God's love.

Remember, your conviction is your faith. We will read again Luke 18:1-8 (NKJV) 

'Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart, saying: “There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor regard man. Now there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, ‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’ And he would not for a while; but afterward he said within himself, ‘Though I do not fear God nor regard man, yet because this widow troubles me I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.’ ” Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge said. And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?”'

That is the question Jesus was asking His disciples and he is asking us the same thing. It is easy to get discouraged in life, it is easy to get faint hearted, it is easy to get despondent, when you are trusting for something, When you are trying to get your right, you have all sorts things come your way but that is when you need to dig your conviction deeper, root it deeper and let it not move.

Conviction is different from opinion, opinion is flaky, it has no root, It is nothing, it is just feelings and hear say and  nothing but conviction is based on facts, solid information. 

This woman knew these things and one of the things she knew was this thing listen; "You might be an unjust judge but your duty as a judge is to give me Justice and my Justice I will get back and I am convinced and because she knew her right and she was convinced of it she got it".

In strengthening our conviction, we need knowledge, without knowledge our convictions cannot be strengthened but the more you know the stronger your knowledge base, the stronger your conviction.

Remember, we say "we don't hold our conviction, conviction holds us" and the more you know, the stronger your conviction becomes and the more it will regulate your life and you know what? When you are able to stand on your convictions no matter what is happening ultimately, your desires will be delivered.

 I trust God that no matter what, as you keep feeding your conviction, feeding your faith, increasing your knowledge base, everything you trust God for will be delivered in Jesus name.

 God bless you! God keep you!!

 Have a lovely day.

Saturday 5th September 

Hello and a lovely Saturday to you in the name of Jesus. I trust that you’re trying to get some rest trying to get refreshed from the week of work. It’s going to be a wonderful season for us in the name of Jesus. God is crowing the year for us with His goodness and our path is falling and flowing in abundance in Jesus’ name. We are grateful and always thankful for every new day. The bible says this is the day the Lord has made i will rejoice and be glad in it. We are grateful that our eyes have seen the month of September and May God who is gracious and merciful keep showing us mercy and grace every single day throughout this year and beyond in Jesus’ name.

We’re talking about the power of conviction and throughout this week we'll be zeroing on and concentrating on your faith which is your conviction, your conviction is you faith we read that in Hebrews 11 verse 1(revised standard version) and today we’re going further in that and I’m going to read from Luke chapter 18 verse 1 to 8(NKJV) saying: “There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor regard man. saying: “There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor regard man.  Now there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, ‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’ And he would not for a while; but afterward he said within himself, ‘Though I do not fear God nor regard man, yet because this widow troubles me I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.’ “ Verse 6: Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge said. And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night, though He bears long with them? Verse 8: I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?”

Interesting story  Jesus told this parable to teach them the importance of staying true and not losing heart in the place of prayer and He said the way they can do that is a function of their conviction so He said when the Son of Man comes will He find faith on the earth. And remember we said our faith is our conviction, understand this conviction will be subjected to trials  your conviction will always have to work in the midst of contrary situation. This woman went out to meet a judge who’s job as a judge was to administer justice but he wasn’t going to do it but this woman was sure and convinced that listen I will get justice from you and she stood there she insisted and she got what she wanted and Jesus said when the Son of Man comes will I find this level of conviction in people, will I find people being able to stand irrespective of the situation  irrespective of the contrary wind, irrespective of the contradiction  irrespective of the accusations will they be able to stand on their conviction until they get their desire 

And that’s my question for you this morning. Is there something you’re expecting but you’ve not seen yet? 

Are you able to stand like this widow on your conviction until you get your desire? That’s the question God is asking you this morning and believe me if you stand true you will see the answers that you seek in Jesus’ name.

God bless you have a lovely day.

 Friday 4th September 

Hello and a lovely Friday morning to you in the name of Jesus.

The month of September is gradually moving forward and we're moving forward too in the name of Jesus.

We've been talking about the power of conviction and the fact that your conviction is simply your faith. When we talk about your conviction, your conviction is your faith and we have seen the place of conviction in the life of Abraham, how his conviction in God's promises ensured he lived the reality of God's promise. We've seen the power of conviction, we've seen how conviction helped and worked in the life of Paul the apostle when he was on that ship, and he was going to come down and everyone thought they were going to die, his conviction in the delivering power of God through the angels brought deliverance to him and the entire crew and today we're looking at the power of conviction in the conviction of God's love. 

It's important  we're absolutely convinced of God's love. The fact that God loves us and that no matter what we do he'll never stop loving us. 

Some of us feel that oh! God will love us if we do this and if we don't do this his will hate us but that's not the nature of God, God's love is forever settled and he loves us so much and it's something we need to be fully convinced of and Paul the apostle understood this.

So in Rom 8:38-39 (Message) let's see how Paul described his conviction of God's love. 

I'm absolutely convinced that nothing - nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow: high or low, thinkable or unthinkable - absolutely nothing can get between us and God's love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us. 

Can you imagine that! Absolutely nothing can get between us and God's love. It's important you understand that today, that no matter what you've done, no matter what you've not done, God's love for you is not based on performance, He loves you because that's His nature and  Paul was absolutely convinced of that. If there is something you really need to be convinced of, is that God loves you. Every one of us need to be absolutely convinced and full of faith in God's love.

God is not angry with you, He's not trying to kill you, He's not said any evil against you and all that. He loves you. Yes, when we break fellowship with him we put ourselves in harm's way and all that but even with all that, He loves us.

As we go into this weekend, I want your heart to be settled and fully convinced in God's love, and as you begin to live in the reality of that, as you have faith in the love of God, as your conviction is settled that absolutely nothing can separate you from God's love, you will see how it'll begin to direct and influence your actions for the better.

 God bless you! Have a great weekend.

Thursday 3rd September 

Hello and a lovely Thursday to you in the name of Jesus.

I'm sure your month is going in the right direction, I pray in the name of Jesus that your conviction keep getting stronger and stronger and you'll see the reality of what God has promised you in the name of Jesus.

Why your conviction is your faith and it's by the power of faith that we live in the reality of what God has promised us, it's by the power of faith that we pull God's riches, God's blessings from the realm of the unseen to the realm of the seen, and like we said yesterday, our conviction are the basis of our belief and behaviour. 

Until you're fully convinced of something, that God has said about you, you will never be able to trust Him for it, you will never be able to put yourself in that situation where you can see the realization of that thing, of those promises in your life.

Acts 27 vs 23-25 (NLT) 

"For last night an angel of the God to whom I belong to and whom I serve stood before me: and he said, Don't be afraid, Paul, for you will surely stand trial before Caesar! What's more, God in his goodness has granted safety to everyone sailing with you: so take courage! For I believe God. It will be just as he has said it to me." 

They were in this shipwreck position, their ship was going through this turbulent time, things were not clear and for two weeks they did not see the sun, they did not see the moon, they did not see the star, they were completely perplexed, there was no hope of deliverance and they were beginning to prepare for a dead end that they were all going to sink at the bottom of the sea.

But Paul said to them in the midst of that hopelessness, he said "friends, God's deliverance is coming", he said God sent His angel to me and the angel said to me "Paul, you're not going to die, you're going to testify before Caesar in Rome and God has graciously given you the life of everyone sailing with you in this ship" and Paul said, listen, "I believe God that He will deliver us just as He has said". 

Another word for that is that I am convinced that God will deliver us just as he has said.

Now let's read Acts 27 vs 25 (WNT) 

"Therefore Sirs, take courage for I believe God and am convinced that things will happen exactly as I've been told." 

Paul's confidence, Paul's conviction in God's ability to deliver him even in a dark and hopeless situation was strong and God indeed delivered him and my prayer for you is in the name of Jesus, as you develop your conviction in God, you'll experience his power to deliver you in the name of Jesus. 

No matter the situation, whether it's a situation on a job, it's finance, it's with your family, it's with your business, it's your health, just the way God showed up in a dark night for Paul and he was convinced that God will show up, as you develop and work on your conviction, God will show up for in the name of Jesus. 

God bless you! God keep you!

Have a great day.

Wednesday 2nd September 

Hello and a lovely Wednesday to you in the name of Jesus.

We thank God again for another month of September and I declare in the name of Jesus you are going higher, you are doing better, God's power is working on your behalf, is working in your job, is working in your business, is working in your education, is working in any vocation, occupation you are involved in the name of Jesus.

The peace of God, the mercy of God, the grace of God will answer for you this month in the name of Jesus.

We're talking about the power of conviction, and we said like we've started yesterday, your conviction is your Faith. When we talk about conviction we're actually talking about your Faith, so, your faith is your conviction. 

Remember, conviction is what regulate our lives.

Rom 4:18-21 (NKJV) 

" Who contrary to hope, in hope believed, so that he became the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, "So shall your descendants be."  And not being weak in faith, he did not consider  his own body already dead, since he was about a hundred years old, and the deadness of Sara's womb: He did not waiver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthen in Faith, giving glory to God: and being fully convinced that what God had _promised he was able to perform" 

Before Abraham could live in the reality of what God had said, he had to come to a place of full conviction. And like we said yesterday, your faith is your conviction. If your faith has not come to that place of fullness, if you have not come to that place where you are fully convinced, then your faith cannot deliver, your conviction cannot deliver.

As long as our conviction is here and there, moving up and down, then we will not be able to appropriate God's blessings in our lives.

Opinions are cheap, almost everybody has an opinion, almost everybody has a point of view on every situation that we hear, but opinions are not anything, they are nothing serious because it's not based on fact, it's not based on anything, it's just what somebody feels, it's just what they feel about something but convictions are the building blocks of life. They are the basis of yours beliefs and your behaviour. That's  why they say "we do not hold convictions but convictions holds us" it literally regulates our lives, it literally controls the things we do. That is why it's important we learn how to cultivate our conviction or whatever it is, understand that, when your talk about your conviction, you're simply talking about your faith.

My prayer is that your conviction will keep getting stronger in the things of God and just like Abraham, you'll come to that place of being fully convinced so that you too can live in the reality of what God has promised you .

Thank you for listening to us today.

God bless you! God keep you!!

Have a lovely day.

Hello and a wonderful day to you in the name of Jesus.

Welcome to the month of September. God has been good. God has been kind. God has been merciful to us and we appreciate Him for everything in the name of Jesus. It is not of him that wills or runs but God that shows mercy. It's not because we are wise, not because we know how to take care of ourselves not because eat well, we keep social distance, we do all the things that we are alive and well. They might have contributed to it but God has been good to us and we are grateful for the gift of life and to see the month of September. I pray in the name of Jesus for you and everyone of your family members, your loved ones; as you have seen this month, we will see the end of the year, we will see many more years in Jesus name in peace and soundness in the name of Jesus.

This month we'll be looking at the power of conviction. The power of conviction to conquer. It's important your conviction is in place because it's a major tool. When we are facing life challenges and we need to conquer. So what exactly is conviction? Your conviction is your FAITH.

Hebrews 11:1 (RSV) says "Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen".

Hebrews 11:1 (Weymouth New Translation)  "Now faith is a well-grounded assurance of that for which we hope, and a conviction of the reality of things which we do not see".

What is the Bible saying to us here? It is simply saying that your Faith is your CONVICTION. Faith is assurance and it is conviction. So your conviction is your faith. Until you understand what conviction is and it's place in your life, you cannot maximize it's power. So to maximize the power of conviction (or the power of faith) we need to know what it is, how it works and we need to know it's role in our lives.

Somebody said "We do not hold conviction but our conviction holds us". That is how powerful conviction is in our life, that is, it is actually what regulates your life. So as we go throughout this week, we will be checking what exactly is our conviction?  What is our Faith? And what role is it in our life?

And I pray in the name of Jesus. You will release the power of your conviction at a new level and you will see the power of conviction conquer great and mighty mountains in your life in Jesus name.

God bless you! Thank you for joining us today.

Have a great day!

Monday 31st August,2020 .

Hello and a lovely Monday morning to in the name of Jesus.

The last day of the month of August. We thank God for giving us the courage to take everyday, one day at time conquering and moving on and I pray in the name of Jesus as we have seen today, we will see the end it this month, we will see the end of next month, we will see the end of next year. We will fulfill the number of our days in the name of Jesus. What He said concerning you is this "with long life will I satisfy you and show you my salvation" and may that word find application in your life in Jesus name.

Esther 5:1-5 (NLT) says 

'On the third day of the fast, Esther put on her royal robes and entered the inner court of the palace, just across from the king’s hall. The king was sitting on his royal throne, facing the entrance. When he saw Queen Esther standing there in the inner court, he welcomed her and held out the gold sceptre to her. So Esther approached and touched the end of the sceptre. Then the king asked her, “What do you want, Queen Esther? What is your request? I will give it to you, even if it is half the kingdom!” And Esther replied, “If it please the king, let the king and Haman come today to a banquet I have prepared for the king.” The king turned to his attendants and said, “Tell Haman to come quickly to a banquet, as Esther has requested.” So the king and Haman went to Esther’s banquet.  

It is not just enough to act courageously, we must be open to divine instructions. Yesterday we spoke about how Esther rallied around for her people, how she got into a time of prayer and fasting and her courage was boosted to take actions but she was wise enough not to take brash actions even though she was acting courageously she was not acting brashly. God gave her the wisdom I call it "Covenant sense"  and the favour to get what she wanted from the king.

She wanted access to the king, she dressed up well and stood where the king could see her. She wasn't screaming and shouting "Oh king, Help us! Help us!! Haman wants to kill us' No! She was calm, put together she said "King I have missed you so much. can you come to a banquet I want to prepare?" Wow! That is real wisdom.

Understand that with your covenant sense acting with courage, there is nothing you would not get from God.

True courage releases wisdom and favour. Remember the story of Ruth. She had wisdom to know what to do, to get Boaz's attention and she got favour. And as Esther did that ultimately, she got what she wanted from the king. The king knew what Haman was planning. He judged Haman. Haman was killed and the children of Israel were set free.

May God give you the wisdom to act smartly, wisely and courageously and get your desires met in Jesus name.

Do you know that the name of God is not mentioned once through out the book of Esther?

God was just acting covertly but His actions are seen. He gave Esther the wisdom that even though what you want is clearly act covertly.

And with that covert but courageous act she was able to deliver the nation of Israel. 

May God cause all your needs, desires to be delivered to you, the wisdom to act covertly be released to you in the Jesus.

God bless you!

I declare it's a great month and new season of September for you in Jesus name.

Have a lovely day!

Hello and a lovely Sunday morning to you in the name of Jesus.

We are still talking about acting your new start and the place of courage and taking courageous actions. 

Esther 4: 16 (TLB) says "16 “Go and gather together all the Jews of Shushan and fast for me; do not eat or drink for three days, night or day; and I and my maids will do the same; and then, though it is strictly forbidden, I will go in to see the king; and if I perish, I perish".

After Mordecai sent a message to Esther about her need to act courageously and take action in defence of the Jews who are going to be killed if they didn't do anything. Esther gave the reasons why she couldn't go, but later she rose up to the challenge to act courageously.

She said you know what I  need you to do, go gather all my family and all the Jews.

I need you to gather them to pray and to fast for me. I will tell the ladies that work with me in the palace to do the same.

After three days, I will go in to see the king and I will put this request before him, he would either listen to me and do something about it or I may die but I am not scared to die if I perish, I perish.

You know Joyce Meyer wrote a book titled "Do It afraid" that is , you might be afraid there, may be things scary in the midst of what you are doing but do it all the same. And do it courageously.

A lot of times when we are taking bold actions, It is important we understand that we need something I will call "Boosters". Things to boost our confidence, things to boost our courage. In the story of Esther we see a few things :

1. She says "Go and fast for me" she knew she needed divine help, she knew she could not do it on her own, she knows she needed God's help. On her own, she was hopeless and helpless.

2. She had a group of people she could rely on. She had people among the Jews, she had people in her palace that could fast for her.

Do you have people that can stand with you?

Do you believe that there is divine help available for you?

It is important you know that sometimes our courage can be challenged and it can disappear but when you have boosters, you have divine resources being released into your life as you fellowship with God, study the word and when you have a group of people standing with you in prayer. It makes it easy to go on.

Even our Lord Jesus Christ when he was going to the cross. The Bible says in Matt 26 that he called His friends he said "Come and stand with me. I am going to the Cross". I need you guys to pray with me for one hour.

If Jesus the son of God the Saviour of the world asked His friends to come and stand with him, how much more you and I? 

When we have these situations, when you have crisis situations, you need to be courageous but don't do it alone, get the fellowship of your friends, your family, get the fellowship of God, spend time in prayer, spend time in fasting, spend time in the word and you will see how these things will boost your courage in the name of Jesus.

May your courage be boosted today and always in the name of Jesus.

God bless you!

Have a lovely day.

Hello and lovely Saturday morning to you in the name of Jesus. I’m sure you’re taking sometime to rest and reflect. We’re gradually getting to the end of the month of August. Very soon we’ll enter September, October, November and December and 2021 is beckoning.  May our eyes that have seen the year this far see the end of the year and many more in the name of Jesus,  as God crowns the year for us with His goodness and our paths drop with fatness.

Esther 4 :13 -14 (TLB) 

This was Mordecai’s reply to Esther: “Do you think you will escape there in the palace when all other Jews are killed? If you keep quiet at a time like this, God will deliver the Jews from some other source, but you and your relatives will die; what’s more, who can say but that God has brought you into the palace for just such a time as this?”

Do you know sometimes crisis is a call to act courageously? Most times a lot of us run from crisis, we avoid crisis but if you go through the bible in many situations, crisis was God’s way of calling us to rise to a situation and change the story of our lives. This is how the life of Esther changed forever.

There was a man called Haman, he was an executive in the cabinet of the King and he wanted to kill all the Jews, he had presented a law which the king had signed it unknowingly,  on a certain day all the Jews had to be killed. Mordecai, Esther’s uncle he sent a message to her saying "Esther there’s a law that on a certain day all the Jews are to be killed I need you to talk to the king about it"; Esther said  "I can’t talk to the king. You know the law, you can’t talk to the king except he calls the person. He’s not called me in over a month. If I go into his presence without being called I will be killed." Her uncle said listen if you don’t do something about this situation it’s going to end up terrible for you. Your complacency will destroy you. It will not only destroy you, it will destroy your family, it will destroy everything about you and God will ultimately find a way of rescuing His people.

You see, no matter the challenges we face as we go after our new start , understand that in the face of those challenges, in the midst of those crisis are seeds of miracles, seeds that transform our lives. God puts things in those challenges that make a demand on His ability on the inside of us and as we respond it just releases God’s grace and rewrites the story of our lives forever.

I don’t know what the challenge is, I don’t know what you’re going through now but see it as God’s invitation. See it as God’s call for you to act courageously. I pray you’ll not be complacent and as you act courageously watch what God will do. And like Mordecai said who knows if God has brought you into this situation to allow this thing to happen so that you can be there and release mighty abilities on the inside of you. You are here in that situation for such the time as this.

May God give you this wisdom and courage to act courageously in the name of Jesus.

God bless you and have a lovely day.
