When we got born again God imputed to us His righteousness. This means that we have the nature of God to do what is right, to walk right at all times. But the devil is the accuser of the brethren. He is always finding ways to accuse us so he can attack us. As an accuser he will want to bring temptation your way to taint your righteousness purposely that he might accuse you and have access to your life. Another approach he might take is to bring you under the burden of guilt. He will consistently attack you with your wretched past. But the righteousness of God you have is your armour against these. As a child of God you have been made the righteousness of God in Christ. This means you showcase God's righteousness in this life. If somebody wants to know how God's righteousness looks like, you are the best person to look at. So then there're certain things you can't do as the icon of God's righteousness. To wear this armour is to consciously possess this truth in you at all times. With such consciousness guilty conscience and temptations cannot have dominion over you.

To be able to withstand the wiles of the devil you will need your belt of truth girded about your loins. See, the devil cannot attack a life, if he first has. O access to that life. So Jesus said, the Prince of this world comes and he has nothing in me. Put on the belt of truth lest the accuser of the brethren will have the opportunity to accuse you and also strike. What does it mean to put on the belt of truth. It refers to living a life of truth. Don't live a life of lies. Some Christians have a whole personality of lies. Nothing about them is true. They are not truthful to themselves. Neither are they truthful to others. They have lied and still working hard everyday to make sure the truth is not revealed. As an employee you don't lie to your employer. Employer be truthful and open to your employees. Husband, let there be nothing you are hiding. Wife, is there anything you have not been sincere about? The devil is liar; he lied from the beginning. He is the father of the lying life. This is why he can enter any life that lives on lies. In the advent of social media, living or presenting an untrue life has become the other of the day. Many are deceiving and also being deceived. By this life of lies we create an environment around us to enable the enterprises of hell to thrive against us. This podcast will bless you.

Finally my brethren be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. The last part of Ephesians chapter 6 talks about how we need, as Christians, to stand against the forces of hell and darkness. This latter part of the chapter helps us to understand that the forces of hell will definitely come up against us, the same way he went against Eve in the garden and Jesus in the wilderness. But we are already given keys to maintain our ground, never to lose it to the devil. The keys are - Be Strong (so you can resist these forces) and put on the amour (to protect you from the wiles of the enemy). And having done all, stand. Be strong in the Lord means we are to be courageous and resolute in the mind and in the inside, that nothing can intimidate us. Nothing can put us down because the greater one dwells in us. Goliath was a man of war, thick and tall. Fearful and intimidating to everyone. King Saul was the tallest in Israel but yet he was afraid. The issues of life cannot be steered with physical body size, the color of your skin or how muscular you are. When David showed up he compared Goliath to the greater One who is with him. He confused that Goliath is a piece of meat for him. David took the challenge. Before the fight, David by the confidence and strength he had in the Lord assured Goliath that he will cut off his head and give his body to the birds of the sky. Glory to Jesus. That is exactly what he did to Goliath. It was a small thing for David to bring Goliath down. Precious one, do you cry when things are not going the way you want. Is something defying you and the God you serve. Arise today in the power of His might and cut off its head. This segment will bless you like never before.

To grieve the Spirit is to make Him sad. But to quench the Spirit is to put out or extinguish the fire, operation and ministry of the Holy Spirit in your life. Hence, Paul by the Spirit admonished that we should not in any way quench the Spirit. There are so many ways we quench the Holy Spirit and when that happens the move of the Spirit in our lives, family, churches and our Communities ceases. The God element and the supernatural is no long experienced. The Holy Scripture teaches us that unrepenting character quenches the fire and ministry of the Spirit. King Saul sinned against God. When he was confronted by Samuel he pleaded, "I have sinned yet honor me now before the elders of my people and before Israel..." (1Sam 15:30). The Spirit of the Lord left him and an evil spirit rather ceased the opportunity to torment him. David equally sinned but when he was confronted he fell down, accepted full responsibility and pleaded for his iniquities. He cried,"... renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence and take not thy Holy Spirit from me." (Ps 59). God gave David His favor and sustained him with His Spirit. Precious One, quench not the Spirit. This segment will help you see the various ways we can quench the Holy Spirit. You will be blessed.

The Bible admonishes us not to harden our hearts just like the children of Israel did in the day of provocation, the day of temptation in the wilderness. "When your fathers tempted me, proved me and saw my works 40 years." God was grieved with that generation and swore that they shall not enter into His rest. The Holy Spirit is in our lives to make us effective and efficient. To lead us unto all truth, telling us of things to come. But when He is grieved, His power and influence in our lives and through our lives diminishes. To grieve the Spirit is to make him sad. When love is put through pain it does not get angry but grieves. What are some of the things we do to make the Spirit grieve? This chapter will help you build insight into the things that grieves Him. And as you avoid these you will begin to experience strongly the power and influence of the Holy Spirit in your life. You will be blessed.

You shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost has come upon you. "And what will be the essence of the Holy Spirit coming upon me with power", you may ask. To make you a witness of Jesus Christ our Lord. Christ has come, Christ has died, Christ has resurrected and set mankind free, Christ has ascended, Christ is seated at the right hand of God. How do we know these are true? The Holy Ghost makes you, the one who has received Him, witness of these things. You are telling me today that Jesus has made me free from my sins and addictions. All I need to do is accept Him as Lord. Where is the evidence of that claim? This is the witness - once I was an addict myself but today I have broken through the addiction. If it has worked for you then I think it will also work for me. These signs shall follow them that believe. In my name they will cast out devils, heal the sick, raise the dead and if they drink any deadly thing it shall not hurt them. All these are going to follow you if you make effort to witness for Jesus. The Holy Ghost brings power and the power makes us effective witness. Without stepping out to witness this power is ineffective and the supernatural becomes absent in our days. The Holy Ghost make you a witness for Jesus

Paul found genuine disciples in Ephesus. Paul understood one thing-every believe without the Holy Spirit will always be defeated. So he asked these disciples a simple question - “have you received the Holy Spirit after you believed?” The answer was simply this - No, we have not even heard there’s a Holy Spirit. Precious One, have you heard there’s a Holy Spirit? Have you received the Holy Spirit after you believed? If you have received, do you walk and work with the Holy Spirit of God? If your answer to any of these questions is ‘No’, then know today that you have picked your own pocket. This podcast will introduce you to the person of the Holy Spirit. You will be blessed like never before.

Jesus came to dwell with us - Emmanuel. We beheld the Word made flesh. We beheld His glory as of the only begotten of the Father full of grace and truth. Jesus with us, He healed our sick, raised the dead, multiplied bread and fishes. It was a lovely experience having God walked on the earth. Then Jesus says, I have to go. How? The objective for Jesus coming was not to dwell with us but rather, show us how the life of God in man lives. Then He Jesus can dwell in us and live through us. The greatest spiritual experience is when a man receives the Holy Spirit into him and allows the Spirit to live through him. I will not leave you comfortless, says the Lord. So you are not alone.

Let him who reads the vision run (with it) according to Habakkuk 2:2. To run as used in the scripture is employed poetically to mean 'to live for' or 'to live by'. This suggests that our lives must be fueled by vision and our lives must progress towards a vision. The life that we have received from God is a gift. What we make out of that life is our gift back to God. This is why we must live intentionally for a vision. Elisha had a vision - to be the next CEO of the prophetic ministry of his time. He followed his master closely although he was older than Elijah. From Gilgal to Bethel, from Bethel to Jericho, from Jericho to Jordan all Elijah wanted to depart without Elisha knowing. But the vision was so important to Elisha he wouldn't let go his master. Eventually, over Jordan he took hold of the vision. And upon his return from the other side of Jordan, the sons of the prophet confessed that he has received the spirit of his master. This was not the case of Gehazi, the servant of Elisha. He wanted to live for nothing bigger than himself. All he wanted was money. Money is not a vision. He eventually inherited a leprosy for himself and his generation. Why? He was vision-less. Precious One, the greatness of a man is in the vision he lives for, and the price he is willing to pay in realizing that vision. God bless you.

God will throw His weight behind a man of vision. But God is interested in a vision that has been written and made plain. God is a God of documentation. He made Moses write the commandment on a tablet. He asked Isaiah to write the vision on a scroll. He instructed Jeremiah to write the vision in a book. With Habakkuk he told him, write the vision down and engrave it plainly on a tablet. Why? A vision written is an important one. Secondly if you write it down it will be a witness or measuring line whether you are living by it or not. Precious One, God will want to help you realize a greater vision but you will have to bring it out plainly and well written down. God bless you
