HUMBLE PEOPLE PRAY

If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14 Our opening Scripture clearly states that if God’s people who are called by His name will humble themselves and pray. Humble people pray. Prayerful people are humble people. Proud people don’t pray because they think that they don’t have to. They fail to realize how much they need God. However, Jesus said that without Him we can do nothing. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. John 15:5 I submit to you that the first sign of humility is prayer. When you humble yourself before God in prayer, in due season, He will exalt you. When you humble yourself before God in prayer, you will also humble yourself before others. Likewise you younger people, submit to your elders. Yes, ...

PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT

But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit. Jude 1:20 God wants you to be led by the Spirit, pray in the Spirit and walk in the Spirit. I like to put it this way, you are led by the Spirit to pray in the Spirit and then you walk in the Spirit. When you walk in the Spirit you will not fulfil the lust of the flesh. I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. Galatians 5:16 On the day of Pentecost when the disciples of Jesus received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, praying in tongues was the first gift they received. Furthermore, Paul said to the church at Corinth, “I thank my God I speak in tongues more that you all.” That goes to show how important praying in the Spirit is. I thank my God I speak in tongues more than you all. 1 Corinthians 14:18 Sometimes you do not know what to say or how to pray. God has given us the gift of tongues to pray effectively. When you pray in the Spirit you...

GOOD SUCCESS

This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. Joshua 1:8 When you meditate on the Word of God you will have good success and not bad success. I would say that success that keeps you from your family and church is bad success. To meditate on the Word means to think upon and mutter the Word as if you were trying to memorize it and more often than not you do memorize it. You renew or upgrade your mind through meditation. Meditation gives you a success mentality and it brings you good success. Whatever you do can prosper and the key is meditation. Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; but his delight is the law of the LORD, and in His law He meditates day and night. He shall be like a tr...

SPEAK WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE

Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears; let the weak say, ‘I am strong.’ Joel 3:10 Your marriage, ministry, business, relationships, health or finances may not be the way you want them to be. Instead of speaking what you see, you can change things by speaking what you want to see. The miracle is in your mouth. Faith speaks the things that are not as though they are. (As it is written, “I have made you father of many nations”) in the presence of Him whom he believed – God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did. Romans 4:17 Your life will go in the direction of your words. So don’t talk failure and defeat. Talk success and victory. You shall have whatever you say. You can mold your life with your words. You need to say it first before you see it manifest in your life. You need to speak life before you see life. But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, ...

SEEK GOD EARLY

With my soul I have desired You in the night, yes, by my spirit within me I will seek you early; for when Your judgements are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness. Isaiah 26:9 They say the early bird catches the worm. Furthermore, it is said that if you want to be successful do what successful people do. We are all given 24 hours in a day and one thing that successful people do is start their day early while everybody else is sleeping. They utilize their given 24 hours in a day to the max. Imagine what would happen if you started to seek God in the early mornings while everybody else is sleeping. By the time everybody gets up, you would have already spent time with God and ready for the day ahead. Wouldn’t that keep you ahead in life? Emphatically yes! O God, You are my God; early will I seek You; my soul thirsts for You; my flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land where there is no water. Psalm 63:1 Imagine that before you engage with ot...

BE DILIGENT IN THE PURSUIT OF YOUR PURPOSE

He who has a slack hand becomes poor, but the hand of the diligent makes rich. Proverbs 10:4 Some people are diligent in the wrong jobs, jobs that they are not really good at or passionate about. Consequently, they are not fulfilled and they never become rich. I’m letting you know that you have to be diligent in the pursuit of your purpose because there is nothing on this earth that you can do better than your purpose. Discover your unique purpose and be diligent in the pursuit of your purpose. Your purpose is both what you are passionate about and good at, what you love and you do better than anything else. It entails your passion and gifts. When you are diligent in the pursuit of your purpose you will not end up poor but rich. The hand of the diligent will rule, but the lazy man will be put to forced labor. Proverbs 12:24 When you are diligent in the pursuit of your purpose you will become a leader. Leadership is not necessarily from position but from influence. When you ...

A GLORIOUS LIFE

To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Colossians 1:27 When you have received Jesus Christ, He is in you and He is the hope of glory. Christ in you is the hope of a glory in your ministry, your business, your relationships, your body, your finances and your whole life. When Christ manifests through you, glory manifests through you. When people see Christ through you, they see the glory of God through you. The more Christ is revealed in your life, the more the glory of God is revealed in your life. Hallelujah! Arise, shine; for your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you. Isaiah 60:1 Your light has come, Jesus is your Light and He has brought glory into your life. When you arise and shine as the light of the world, people will start to see the glory of God. You will be living a glorious life. Your life is not an ordinary life; it is the life of glo...
