Mathew 11:28 (KJV) “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest”.

Bisi borrowed a book from a senior colleague while in school. He knew this fellow was about to graduate, but he wanted to finish reading everything in the book. Unfortunately, this friend graduated, but Bisi could not return the book. Thereafter he heard a sermon on restitution and this fueled every sting of condemnation in his heart because he tried to locate this friend but all efforts proved abortive. He labored in this condemnation for years until he read Mat 11:28. He saw Jesus in that scripture calling out to him to BRING IT ALL. Immediately, he found God’s peace in his heart.

Just like Bisi, you may be stuck with this kind of arrow in your heart, especially when scripture is pointing to your wrongs. My dear, the scripture must point to your wrongs, but it is not always within your strength to right the wrongs. Take that embargo of the devil upon you to Jesus and He will give you peace in exchange. He will free your heart from all condemnation and give you the strength and wisdom to do what is required.

Don’t be too anxious and careful to prove yourself before God because your proof is already in Christ. By grace, you have already been accepted in God’s beloved family (see Eph 1:6), Read Phil 4:6,

1 Peter 5:7: Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you. [NET]

As you go into today, note this: there is no question you cannot find its answer in Christ. BRING IT ALL.

Prayer: I surrender all my bewildering questions to you Lord, withholding nothing. Thank you Father for as long as my questions are in Your hands, I can go about your business with a peaceful heart. Amen.—KC Ibekwe

1 Corinthians 1:6-7 (KJV) Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you: So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ

Ronke went to visit her friend on another campus. She stayed there for three days and was really blessed by their fellowship. One notable thing about that Campus fellowship was the great presence of spiritual gifts. Prophesying and healings were a common thing, even among new believers there. Ronke left that campus desiring spiritual gifts and praying to receive them. In a short time, she too started walking notably in spiritual gifts. Her desire birthed a manifestation that Jesus had long paid for.

When Jesus commissioned us to preach the gospel, He told us that ‘these signs shall follow they that believe’ and He mentioned a list of spiritual gifts and manifestations (see Mark 16:15-18).

In today’s Bible text, we see Apostle Paul making reference to spiritual gifts in the people as a sign that His testimony of Christ among them was confirmed. You see, the sign that true Christianity is in a place is the manifestation of God’s power and righteousness (see 1 Cor 4:21).

Go into today knowing that the grace of God in your life produces much more than knowledge and utterance (see 1 Cor 1:5-7). It has sufficient power to produce great spiritual gifts. Go into today desiring more manifestations of God’s power and gifts in your life. Remember that your desire would birth a manifestation. “… Seek and you shall find…” (Read Mat 7:7).

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank you for saving me and making me your own. I pray that you help me walk in your power; that your power and gifts will be manifested in my life like never before. In Jesus’ name. Amen.—Abraham Damilola Arigi

Proverbs 31:18 (KJV) She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.

Ayo received many awards, and he was also the overall best student in his school. The principal of the school came up on stage to make comments “Ayo burnt the night candles” he said.

Night: a time to rest, sleep, and a time covered with darkness. This time is characterized by inactivity. Yet, almost every great success is associated with the night.

The woman in today’s text perceived that her merchandise was good; hence, she spent hours of the night preparing, rehearsing, and practicing. What have you perceived to be good in your life? What are your strategies for achieving it? What extra effort do you need to put in place? Certainly, there are excesses you must cut off.

God has given you the dream; it is your responsibility to pursue it. Remember that to have a dream eyes must be closed, but eyes must be opened to make it come to pass.

Check your archive as you go into the day, find out those merchandise in you that are good, and spend quality time developing them. Follow God, seek knowledge, chase excellence and you will be more productive.

Prayer: I rebuke laziness in my life in Jesus’ name.

I receive the grace of an achiever for God’s pleasure in Jesus’ name.

I receive light (knowledge) to achieve in Jesus’ name. Amen.—Dr. James Emmanuel

Mark 11:13 (KJV) And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find anything thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.

There is the true story told of an eighty-year-old woman who was seen moving from street to street preaching the gospel with a bell in her hand. Those who saw her were amazed; they would ask why she was still doing this in her old age? ‘I neglected it when I had the strength, God gave me a second chance’ she would respond.

The tree in our text had no second chance, it withered immediately. Jesus sought fruit from a tree when it was not time for fruit, have you thought about this before? Think about it today.

Has God given you an assignment: talents to use; a book to write, a message to preach, tracts to share, lives to touch, etc.? Are you saying in your heart that it is not time because conditions are not favorable? are you excusing yourself waiting ‘ for the time of figs’? Remember brethren, that our lives are not our own (see Jeremiah 10:23).

Go into today pondering on today’s text. If God will come seeking fruit from you today, will He find fruits?

You can do all that he assigned you. Begin it today and He will supply all you need to be successful.

Prayer: My Father, as I begin to do all you have committed into my hands, supply all my needs in Jesus’ name. Amen.—Dr. James Emmanuel.

Ephesians 6:10 (NIV) Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.

Deji had an effectual prayer life. Each time he prayed he had great confidence that the Lord would hear him, and because of this he received great results. Deji derived strength in knowing that he was walking in a righteous and holy manner. One day as he was praying with his usual strength drawn from the consciousness of his righteousness, his thoughts strayed to some unrighteous things he’d done some time ago, he remembered them even though he had repented of such, and his strength in the place of prayer diminished. His ability to do spiritual warfare failed in the darkness of his sin consciousness. Thankfully, he remembered that Jesus came to make him righteous. He remembered that he was never to stand before God based on His own righteousness but based on the righteousness of Christ Jesus. Immediately, Deji received strength in the Lord and regained his ability to do spiritual warfare against the powers that sought to limit his destiny.

Even though as children of God, we are not to consciously walk in a way that gives the accuser grounds to afflict our consciences, let us not be deceived into the trap of self-righteousness. It makes a person think that God would hear him because of something he did, or did not do. Let us cease to draw strength from our own self-righteousness and discipline. Let us continually draw strength from the Lord’s righteousness. This is what it means to be strong in the Lord.

As you go into today, know that you are going from Victory to victory because your strength comes from the Lord’s righteousness.

Prayer: Lord, please help me to always depend on your righteousness and walk in it. Deliver me from walking in a manner that is not consistent with your new righteous nature within me. Amen.—Abraham Damilola Arigi

1 Corinthians 2:7-8 (KJV) But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

Apostle Paul reminded the Corinthian Church that he did not come to them preaching the wisdom of men; he came with the power of God. He also told them that the wisdom he preaches is superior to the wisdom of this world. It is the wisdom of God.

Wisdom is the proper application of knowledge that helps a person achieve his given goals (see Pro 24:3).

The greater the goal, the higher and greater the degree of wisdom required. For instance, generally, you would need more wisdom to be president of a country than to be class rep of your class.

The destination for every Christian is much higher than what the world can imagine. We can see this because we are born again (see John 3:3). We walk in the superior wisdom that the unbeliever cannot understand. This wisdom helps us get to our destination.

Our goal as children of God is the kingdom of God. Not just that we hope to physically be in the kingdom someday, but we are to bring the reality of the kingdom into this present world.

Go into today knowing that the wisdom God gives you is superior to that of the world. The world is focused on getting treasure that can be destroyed. We are gathering treasures that cannot be destroyed; that has relevance is all realms of existence, including this present world.

Prayer: Ask God to help you walk more in His wisdom.—Abraham Damilola Arigi

Proverbs 3:6 (KJV) “In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”

This is a refreshing promise from the word of God especially in times like ours when one of the greatest needs of humanity is the need for direction. In the world today, there are many questions on people’s minds and no answers. Many are confused and perplexed because they lack direction. As children of God, we must not live that way. In the midst of the whole confusion, God wants to direct us; tell us what to do, where to go, who to meet, and what to say. God wants to be a part of all the decisions we take whether major or minor. Life would be far easier and more fruitful if we make God a part of our lives by acknowledging Him in all our ways.

God won’t take the lead if we don’t acknowledge Him or invite Him in. He wants to be our major focus, the first point of call, not the last resort. I believe one of the ways to acknowledge Him is thanking Him for everything, living a life of gratitude.

Therefore friend, trust Him, lean on Him, and acknowledge Him by thanking Him. Be grateful to Him for all the seemingly little blessings in your life.

As you go into today, punctuate your day with brief words of thanksgiving to the Lord. Acknowledge Him by thanking Him today and watch Him bless your day.

Prayer: Dear Lord, I thank you for today. Grant me the grace to acknowledge you through Thanksgiving as I go through my day. Order my steps today in Jesus’ name I pray, amen.—Otuokon, Ubokudom.

Exodus 33:21(KJV) And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock.

It was a masquerade festival in the village. Ade the son of Chief Aweje followed other children to the village square to watch masquerades perform. As customary, it was time for Masquerade to chase and whip people. Other children were whipped so hard that they had bruises but Ade simply ran to his father who wrapped him with his cloth; from there Ade watched how other children were beaten. Ade was spared from brutal beatings because he had a father to run to.

Every child has a father, even the bastards do. The difference is in the legitimacy of their birth. One of the many benefits of being a legitimate child is security from your father.

If you are born again, you are legitimate and you are not to suffer the fate of bastards, yet, one very important thing you must do is stay in the ‘place by Him’. This is where access to the abundance in God (your father) is possible. It is a place that is higher than you; a place of safety. The psalmist wrote in Psalm 61:2b “When my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” [KJV]

Go into today knowing that you are God’s child and your father has provisions for you. Know also that it is by standing in this place that is by Him that you can access His protection and provisions for you. This place is a place of fellowship and intimacy.

Develop a more intimate relationship with your father and you will walk in the abundance that is in Him.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, Please lead me to that rock that is higher than I. Help me to remain there. Amen.—Dr. James Emmanuel

Psalms 27:13 (KJV) I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

The psalmist knew something. He knew that God is always good to him regardless of his current circumstances. Even though at times, because of his sin or ignorance, David found himself in very tough situations that would have made him give up on life, he refused to faint because he knew he was going to see the salvation of the Lord. And here is my best part; he knew he was going to see the salvation of the Lord in the land of the living. He said ‘the land of the living’ to make it clear that he expected to experience God’s salvation and goodness in this life on earth and not only in the life to come.

David’s expectation was not dashed. He died in the palace and fulfilled his destiny (see Acts 13:36). David is still revered today as one of the most powerful kings in all of History.

God’s word to you today is that you will see the goodness of the Lord in the Land of the living.

“For the LORD God is our sun and our shield. He gives us grace and glory. The LORD will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right”- Psalm 84:11. Also read Matt 7:11.

Go into today believing and trusting that the Lord will bring great good your way because you belong to Him and trust in Him.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank you for everything you have done for me. I ask that you give me the grace to absolutely trust in you and always do what is right. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Galatians 6:8-9(KJV) For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

As a child, I needed no one to teach me to lie but I needed to be taught how to write, I did many other wrong things at will but needed to be taught almost everything good that I know how to do.

We dwell in a world where evil seems to prevail and anyone who wants to stand on the path of righteousness is considered outdated.

It was similar in Paul’s time. He wrote ”Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit.” [NLT]

It could be as simple as reducing your age to get a job, telling a little lie to get out of trouble, etc. You are admonished not to get weary in well doing: for in due season you shall reap if you faint not. Could it be that you are fainting when the time to reap is near? Be encouraged; don’t give up, your own due season will come.

Go into today knowing that God is a just judge, he will not forget your good deeds.

Prayer Confession: I will not faint, I will reap in due season in Jesus’ name. Amen—Dr. James Emmanuel
