“He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand]” 

-- Ps.91:1 [AMP]

Keep your mouth shut! What a way to start today’s devotional right? Surprise! When God gives you an idea, He expects that you incubate the idea. As you incubate the idea, you are generating spiritual power to birth the idea. Keep your mouth shut! Sometimes it is just one particular person, even if you do not tell anybody else, once you tell that person the idea will not see the light of day. Many of you have such people in your lives; so why do you keep talking to them? Every hold they have on you is broken now, in Jesus Name. Keep your mouth shut! There is this folk tale about Alade, a very wealthy man in the village. But Alade had horns so he used to wear a big cap to cover it up.

Alade had a friend that he thought was close enough to reveal his secret. So he took his friend to a secluded place, took off his cap and showed his friend his secret. His friend unfortunately, could not contain what he had seen. He had to tell someone; Alade’s secret was burning like a fire in his belly. So in order to stay loyal, he ran to an empty cave and shouted ‘Alade has horns!’ Phew! He felt relief and no one heard, so everything was good. Or so he thought. A tree grew out of that cave and the wood from that tree was used to make flutes for children. Whenever the children played the flute, the only tune that came out was ‘Alade has horns’. So everyone in the village found out about Alade’s secret. It was unbearable for Alade so he killed himself.

Keep your mouth shut! Every strong man has a secret - something he has not disclosed. There are things that are only known to God and me. There is no human being on earth that knows those things, not even my wife, as close as I am with her. If you know me, you would know that I am totally transparent with my wife but she does not know those things. It is between God and me. I have heard all sorts of theories about the secret of “my power”. Some say it is prayer while others say it is evangelism. I just laugh. There are levels of consecration that I have with God. There are things, for instance, that other Pastors can do, that I cannot even try because I will be in trouble. Consecration!

Prayer [song]: I was born to be God’s dwelling place. A home for the Presence of my King. So let my life now be consecrated unto Thee. That I may be what I was born to be… Amen

THEME: You Can Create Whatever You Desire John 16:21-27 The instrument with which you exercise dominion over creation is your mouth.You can create whatsoever you desire by speaking that thing into existence.Whatever you say begins to exist in the spiritual form.Jesus said in John 6:63,"The words that I speak unto you,they are spirit,and they are life". In like manner,you create whatever you say and the things begin to exist in the spiritual form.What you create through words also have life and they continue to live until they find physical expression.  This is exactly what happens when you pray.The things you declare in prayer come alive and begin to exist in their spiritual form.They remain in that spiritual form until they are converted to their tangible equivalent through work. Jesus said,"until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full" (John 16:24). Don't make the mistake of relaxing after you have pray...

Sin Stained...or Blood Washed?

This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; and their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.  (Hebrews 10:16-17) The Bible tells us that under Levitical law, an animal had to be offered every year to atone for the sins of the people. That word atone means "to cover" and it's used continually throughout the Old Testament. But let me tell you something exciting. It's never used in the New Testament. The Greek word used to describe what Jesus did for us on the cross is a different word altogether. It doesn't just mean "to cover"—it means "to remit; to do completely away with something." Do you know what that means? It means there is no longer a sin problem. Jesus solved it! When you made Him your Lord, He didn't just cover your sins, He put you into right-standing with God and re-created you by the Spirit of God a...

You Must Forgive Yourself Hebrews 12:1-11 You have heard quite a lot about forgiving those that have offended you – and that you must do. It happens often that the person you must really forgive is yourself. You may have committed an offence or a sin and your conscience has condemned you, just as the Holy Spirit has chastised you. You may also have repented of this sin, confessed it to God and resolved not to go back that way. But you discover that the heaviness, clouded vision, and the erosion of confidence occasioned by the sin you committed continue to weigh you down. At such moments, you need to make another type of confession to God in order to regain your liberty from the weight that holds you down. You have to confess your unbelief in His word that says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9). When you have genuinely repented of a sin and confessed it to God; and you have pleaded ...
