THEME: PASS IDEAS THROUGH WORD TEST
Psalms 119:97-105

If a man is walking in error, he is walking in darkness; if the man is walking in ignorance, he is walking in darkness. Wherever light is absent, darkness dominates. The worst thing that can happen to you is for your life to be governed by darkness.
The kingdom of God is the kingdom of light. Your privileged relationship with God positions you to receive instructions on how to do things and succeed; what to invest in and what not to be entangled with; who to do business with and who not to be involved with. Even when you have made mistakes or have been knocked down, God shows you how to remedy the situation and how to get back on your feet.

The kingdom of Satan is the kingdom of darkness. He equips people with “negative wisdom” on how to steal, kill and destroy. Imagine how much “wisdom” goes into a bank robbery. This type of wisdom that leads people to break God’s laws and trample on other people’s rights is not light but pitch darkness. It only accelerates the speed with which the culprit is heading to destruction; and possibly, extinction.

Whenever an idea drops into your heart, pause and check whether the idea is from the kingdom of light – the kingdom of God – or the kingdom of darkness. One quick way to carry out this check is to evaluate the idea in the light of God’s word. God will never tell you to do something that is contrary to His word. If you fail to carry out this check, you may end up embracing ideas and projects that are not from God which only lead to avoidable regrets and losses.

Pray that your motivation for doing things shall not be pride, lust or greed.
Activate and utilise the gift of discerning of spirits.

CONFESSION: I must be sober and alert; even by scrutinising all ideas and revelations in the light of God’s word.

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...

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 ...

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...
