THEME: YOU NEED TO BE ENLIGHTENED
John 1:1-12

You stumble over and over any time you try to move forward where there is no light. It is easy for you to explain that the difficulty you have is because you are walking in physical darkness.  

There is yet another type of darkness that can engulf a person even when he is walking under the broad daylight. When you are confronted with a challenge and you don’t have the slightest idea how to tackle that challenge, you are in darkness as far as that challenge is concerned. 

You require that light (not the visible light) be shed upon that situation before you can tackle it. The kind of light needed in this situation forms the root of the word – “enlighten” and “enlightenment”.

To be a more resourceful and more productive person than you are presently, you need enlightenment in very many areas. Many of the things that are standing before you now as big challenges are things you can handle with ease if you have the necessary knowledge to tackle them. Limitation in knowledge often translates into limitation in capacity and productivity.

Since you can increase your capacity by increasing your level of knowledge, take advantage of opportunities that help you to improve your knowledge and sharpen your cutting edge. Attend seminars and workshops. Go for short term, medium term and long term courses. You many need to go back to school and improve your education. Over time, you will be better placed than one who neglects to be enlightened.

Pray for liberation from any unhealthy habits.
Pray for enablement to overhaul your personal time management system and increase productivity.

CONFESSION: My light will shine brighter and brighter every day. To give my best, I have to be the best I can be.

THEME: RETREAT TO REFRESH READ: Matt. 11:25-30 When some musicians want to release great songs, they retreat to secluded places where they can reflect, meditate and create. Some choose places overlooking the vast oceans, some choose where there are waterfalls, and some choose places with thick forestations.  As they observe the beauty of nature, the swift moves and songs of the soaring birds, the colourful flowering vegetations, the serene beaches and the unending waves of the nearby waters, they capture inspiration that helps them develop the hit songs they have been longing for. I met one of the world’s renowned musicians in Atlanta, USA a few years ago where journalist surrounded him and were asking what he had come to do and why his beards had grown so much. He said that his last album did not perform well enough and he was incubating another one he wanted to release that would perform better. He said that he needed to pull away from the Noise of New York and California ...

A NEW MONTH OF DIVINE ANNOUNCEMENT

But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. Luke 1:13 The Bible is replete of records on how God announced some events before they finally happened. Because you made it into the new Month, God will specially announce you in Jesus name.  Whenever God want to do something unusual, He first of all announce it, for instance, when He wanted to delivered the children of Israelite from the hand of the philistine whom He has delivered them to, He sent an angel to break the new to the parent of the deliverer - Samson. Judges 13.  When God wanted to turn the hearts of men back to Himself, He sent angel Gabriel to announced the birth of John the Baptist to his father, Zacharias. Also when God was fully ready for the redemption of man, He first announced it to the one whose body His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ will pass through to the earth. Luke 1:26-38. That was the...

Marriage Booster: Do You Still Love Her/Him ?

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; Ephesians 5:25 KJV "This is what I love about you" In the beginning you love everything about him. You are captivated by his six pack, his spirit of adventure, and his lion’s heart. In the beginning you love everything about her. You go crazy with the swing of her hips, a wink or a chewy chocolate cake baked especially for you. One day you wake up. Daily routine has shattered your rose-tinted glasses. “His six pack is not so hot anymore, instead his joints creak with every move.” Or: “It would be better if she swung her hips into a gym one of these days.” You realize: “My partner has changed.” Fortunately! He isn’t standing still. The problem is not the change but rather, that you are a creature of habit. It is your task to rediscover your partner and to simultaneously not forget why you went up the aisle with sparkling eyes to marry your bride/groom. MARRIAGE BOOSTER Write d...
