GOD'S LOVE MAKES LIFE VERY EASY
Tuesday 17th September 2024
Ephesians 3:14-19 For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ... that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what [is] the width and length and depth and height— to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
There are things that God will never do for you and I, until we have passed the test of love; the love of God.
This was the reason Paul prayed for a baptism of divine love upon the church of Ephesus. Each one of us needs to ask the Holy Spirit for this baptism, so that our lives are wrapped in His love to ensure that everything we do flows from that place.
The next move of God that will take over the earth, is for men and women whose hearts have been dipped in His love; those that will live for Him alone. Therefore, as we walk with God, we must examine ourselves and allow His love to correct the wrongs and redefine the reason for whatever we are doing.
Genesis 4:3-6 [3]And in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the LORD. Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the LORD respected Abel and his offering.
[5-6] but He did not respect Cain and his offering. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell.
There is nothing you have gone through that the love of Jesus cannot help you overcome. All you have to be is willing, as you ask the Lord to pour His love into you. Let His love dissolve everything you have carried in your heart for centuries.
Give the Holy Spirit an opportunity to release the love of God in your heart which will dissolve the anger, bitterness and unforgiveness, so that you may be free to live a joyful life.
Matthew 24:12(NIV) Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.
The devil knows that when your love grows cold, your chances of being offended go up. This is the danger with many believers, they easily get offended because the love of Jesus is low in their hearts.
The power of God flows best through His love. Don't be like the Pharisees or Levites who had no compassion on a wounded man, yet they were ministers.(Luke 10:30-34)
1 Corinthians 14:1 Pursue love, and desire spiritual [gifts,] but especially that you may prophesy.
The only thing that God tells us to pursue is love. What are you pursuing?
Most men and women of God who pursue physical things and gratification, appear to be living a fulfilled life, yet there is dissatisfaction in them.
It is only Love that makes life easy on this earth. When people get complicated, know that they have entered into the realm of men and the love of God is not in them.
The four gospels reveal Jesus to have lived a very simple life. This is what happens when the love of God floods your soul, life becomes very simple.
John 17:26 AMP and I have made Your name known to them, and will continue to make it known, so that the love with which You have loved Me may be in them [overwhelming their heart], and I [may be] in them.”
This is Jesus' last prayer for the church. It is therefore wise for us to pray this prayer daily. When you do it wholeheartedly, things will change and you will realize that your level of tolerance, patience and endurance is going up. This is because love makes life bearable and easy.

THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM
WEDNESDAY 11TH SEPTEMBER 2024
John 1:1,3 [1] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [3] All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.
Proverbs 3:19 The LORD by wisdom founded the earth; By understanding He established the heavens;
There is nothing we see on earth that God created except by His wisdom.
Mark 6:1-2 [1] Then He went out from there and came to His own country, and His disciples followed Him. [2] And when the Sabbath had come, He began to teach in the synagogue. And many hearing Him were astonished, saying, "Where did this Man get these things? And what wisdom is this which is given to Him, that such mighty works are performed by His hands!
The mighty works of Jesus were attributed to His wisdom; He wasn't born with it but it was just given to Him.
If that wisdom was given to Jesus, then you and I can get that wisdom because it is what we need to build everything we need in life.
Genesis 1:26-28
Man being created in God's image had a degree of God's wisdom that was imparted in Adam and Eve that even when man fell, God didn't withdraw it.
Every human being in the likeness of God has a degree of wisdom that they are born with and there is a kind of wisdom that we get from school but the wisdom being talked about is not that.
1 Corinthians 1:24,30 [24] but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. [30] But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God--and righteousness and sanctification and redemption--
Jesus Christ is the wisdom of God and the Bible tells us that nothing was created without Him. John 1:3
The day we accepted Christ, wisdom came into our hearts. We are potentially wise but the only challenge is that many of us have not engaged it.
Jesus was able to perform the mighty works because of the wisdom. The same Holy Spirit that filled Jesus is that same spirit in us; that means that we can produce the results that Jesus did.
JOSEPH
Genesis 41:14-38
Pharaoh attributed the wisdom of Joseph to the Spirit of God. Joseph was able to rise because of wisdom; wisdom can change your life.
God gave us this wisdom because He wants to distinguish and separate us. That is why God sent His Spirit to dwell in us.
JOSHUA
Deuteronomy 34:9 Now Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him; so the children of Israel heeded him, and did as the LORD had commanded Moses.
This wisdom is not learnt but it is received as a result of transfer of spirits. May God fill us with the Spirit of wisdom because that is what we need to take over all we need to.
SOLOMON
1 Kings 3:5-7, 10:23-24
King Solomon didn't have that wisdom but he asked for it and it was transferred to him. He surpassed all the kings of the earth because the spirit of wisdom that created the world was in him.
God is the same yesterday, today and forever; He doesn't change. He can give you a wise and understanding heart like Solomon but all you need to do is to get on your knees and pray for it.
Remember, this kind of wisdom is neither studied nor taught but it is only given by God.
THE SONS OF ISSACHAR
1 Chronicles 12:32
The brethren were at command because they knew the times and seasons and ought to be done.
It is not enough to know God's will, we need wisdom and spiritual understanding that we may be able to walk worthy of the Lord. Colossians 1:9-10

A CALL TO A LIFE OF HOLINESS
Tuesday 3rd September 2024
As we pray and seek God for the last move of the Holy Spirit over the earth, one of the things the Lord expects of us, is to live a life that honors Him.
1 Peter 1:16 because it is written, [ "Be holy, for I am holy."]
If you want to walk with God, you must make up your mind to be Holy; to be set apart or separated.
We are saved by grace but the bible requires you and I to live a sanctified life. We must look more like Jesus daily, by pursuing holiness whole heartedly.
2 Timothy 2:20-21 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay, some for honor and some for dishonor. Therefore if anyone cleanses himself from the latter, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified and useful for the Master, prepared for every good work.
Are you a vessel for special or ordinary use? In other words, does your life bring honor to God or not?
When you yield yourself to the Holy Spirit, you become a vessel of honor but when you allow the enemy to find expression in your life, you become a vessel of dishonor.
Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; [it is] the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.
We are not saved by good works but we have been saved to do good works. The things you do are the proof of the fruit of your salvation.
Jesus woke up early one morning, saw a fig tree from afar and He hurried to get something from it, but when He found no fruit, He cursed it. (Matthew 21:18-19)
What are the fruits of your life? Never let the grace of God upon your life be in vain. Do not be a man or woman who is sold to believing the lies of the enemy, but be sold to a life of holiness, purity and integrity in honor of God. (Daniel 1:8)
2 Timothy 3:12 Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.
There is a degree of suffering you will go through when you stand for righteousness. However, you don't have to budge because the Holy Spirit will always see you through as long as you keep yourself in sync with Him.
Matthew 5:13-14
The bible says that once salt loses its saltiness, it's of no use. This means that if you compromise by living in sin, your testimony dies and you become irrelevant.
What caused Adam and Eve to be chased out of the Garden of Eden and lose their placement, was sin. (Genesis 3:23)
Sin will deceive you for a season and in the end, it will destroy you. Sin leads to a spiritual death that will affect your marriage, relationship and finances among others.
Isaiah 6
It was until the Lord touched Isaiah’s lips, cleansed and removed his iniquity, that He asked; "Whom shall I send, who shall go for us?"
God was looking for someone to send but none was qualified. He is still looking for a man to do His work. However, He expects you to be living a Holy life. Your words and actions must reveal the nature you have received. (Matthew 7:16)
There is a call from Heaven to live a life that honors God. If your lifestyle does not honor God, let it end here today. The Holy Spirit is on the inside of you, to help you overcome sin.

A PRAYER FOR MORE GRACE
Friday 30th August 2024
Precious Holy Spirit, we thank you for Your presence, mercy and compassion that never fails. We come to Your throne of grace to obtain mercy and find grace to help us in this time of need.
James 4:6 But He gives more grace... Lord, we need Your grace more than anything else.
We place a demand on the much abounding grace. Lord, we pray that You will cause Your grace to abound in this house, land and our lives like never before. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound. (Romans 5:20)
John 1:17 For the law was given through Moses, [but] grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Jesus, You are full of grace and out of Your fullness we receive grace upon grace that sustains our lives.
I remember the words of Apostle Paul; For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God [which was] with me.1 Corinthians 15:9-10
Lord, we have nothing to pride ourselves in, except Your absolute grace upon our lives. Let our testimonies zero in on one thing; Your grace. For it is Your grace that works in us both to will and to do.
We are in an age where scientific knowledge has increased exponentially but we cry for a commensurate higher dimension of grace that will cause men to know that they are mere men. (Isaiah 60:1)
2 Corinthians 9:8 And God [is] able to make all grace abound toward you,...
Lord, we pray that You will cause us to enter and walk into that unspoken grace.
We thirst and hunger for the unsearchable and unlimited riches in christ. Reveal that which You have packaged for this generation, the unreachable dimensions of grace in Christ. Amen

FAITH - THE LANGUAGE OF THE SPIRIT
Sunday 11th February 2024
God's help comes to us in form of His Word; therefore, every time we do not read God's Word, we are robbing ourselves.
We should always ensure that our actions do not contradict our faith because faith without actions is dead. (James 2:17).
Genesis 1:26, 28
God gave the spirit of man which is His image, dominion over the sea, air, and the earth.
Genesis 2:7
The contact between the spirit and the body of man brought forth the soul.
Man is a spirit, having a soul and living in a body; the body gives him permission to function on earth while the spirit gives him permission to function in the spirit world.
Man is the only creature that has the legal right to operate both in the spirit and natural realm and if God wants to do anything here on earth, He goes through man.
Genesis 3
Before man fell, he was living by his spirit, living by faith, from the inside-out, not controlled by external information but by information from within his spirit which is the image of God.
However; when man fell, his identity was lost; he stopped living by his spirit (faith) and started living by his senses. He became self-conscious
Remember God's greatest investment in a man is His image and that is what the devil was targeting; he went after man because he was God's representative on earth.
Romans 3.23
Before man fell, he was conscious of God's glory and after the fall, he became conscious of himself. That is why the most dangerous enemy is not the devil but "I" (self). John 3:30
Remember God is a spirit and when He wants to do something with a man, He contacts his spirit because man's true identity is locked up in his spirit (John 4:24, John 1.12-13 AMP, 2Peter 1:3 ).
The attack on man In the garden of Eden was aimed at the spirit because the devil knew that once he attacked the spirit, all other things would be disconnected. So for God to also fix man, He had to deal with his spirit.
Hebrews 11.6 - But without faith it is impossible to please Him....
Faith is the language of the spirit and it is a must if we want to deal with God because God is a spirit.
All the business for example; healing, deliverance, promotion, breakthrough , etc, are done in the spirit and because it is a spiritual affair, we must engage faith.
If we, like God, want to solve problems and have permanent results; we must operate in the spirit.
Hebrews 11.6 ..... For he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
Faith doesn't focus on things, it focuses on God. It is after we have sought Him that He rewards us with the things.
Hebrews 12:2
You should never take out eyes off Jesus because He doesn't change. If you want anything from Him focus on Him and He will in turn reward you with all you need.
Hebrews 11.1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Evidence means proof for what you do not see; for example, if you want to sell land, you don't carry the land with you but you just show the title deed as proof that you are the owner of the land.
Faith is the proof (title deed) to the property that you are yet to manifest in the physical. You hold on to that evidence until you possess it. But before it is manifested in the physical, it must be first seen in the spiritual. (2 Corinthians 4.18)
Mark.11.24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.
Having comes after receiving; you must receive it by faith before you see it physically.
When you have received something in the spirit, there comes a knowing in your spirit that it is done; that is the definition of faith.
You stay in faith after receiving while waiting to have the physical manifestation of what you received in the spiritual realm.
