Take Note I

“They did not conquer the land with their swords; it was not their own strong arm that gave them victory. It was your right hand and strong arm and the blinding light from your face that helped them, for you loved them” Ps.44:3
 
I am really excited to be alive today and I hope you are too because it is only the living that can praise God [at least on earth]. Usually as seasons change and we approach a new season, even before I became a Pastor, as a Christian I would sit with God and try to discern His mind for the coming season. I believe every believer should do this actually, even on a daily basis. Which is why we have devotions, a time where you can sit quietly with God to get His mind for your life daily.

Over the years, I have had to write down what I believe God was saying was the direction for different seasons and download materials, a lot of materials, to boost my understanding of His direction for me. And personally, I noticed that just a few months after, say three months, I tend to forget what God has said. Does that happen to you? Just a few months after and I am checking my notes just to be reminded and to re-fire myself up.

But some years ago I said to God, I still would love to hear the details but if You are to summarize this year in one word what would it be? One word that I can keep before me at all times. It is easier for me to work with simplicity, I am not a very complex person, and I like things being simple. And God said Establishment and it was fantastic. After that, in another season, God said Bloom. God came through and He is still coming through for us. Take note that Establishment and Bloom have not expired. God is Establishing you and You will continue to Bloom in Jesus Name. And just last year, God said Victory. We trust God that there will continue to be an extension to this nation Nigeria. Our testimony of Nigeria will be that she has been victorious. So what does Victory translate to for us? Three things:

#1: Victory. The first thing is, God will give you victory. “For the Lord your God is going with you! He will fight for you against your enemies, and He will give you victory!’” Deu.20:4. Who will give you victory? God will give you victory. Some of us have had a running battle for some time. I announce to you today that that battle is coming to an end and it is not going to end in defeat. It is going to end in victory; God will give you victory in the Mighty Name of Jesus. Write it down!

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I thank You because I will yet be established and I will bloom without fail. Thank You for the additional promise of victory, in Jesus Name

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...

Nothing To Do, Only Believe By Joseph Prince

Daily Grace Inspirations Thursday 11th August 2016 …“What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.” - John 6:28–29 When I was a young Christian, I attended a seminar on what we must do to “work the works of God”. I was told that we had to pray more, fast more, know our enemy and so on. I came away from the seminar confused. Then one day, I found the same question in the Bible. But the answer was very different! In the Gospel of John, we find Jesus being asked the same question by the multitude who had been awed by His miracles—“What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” The people had seen Jesus healing the sick, and feeding 5,000 men with only five loaves and two fish. Notice how Jesus answered them: “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.” My friend, the greatest doing is believing—believing in Jesus the sent one, who has done it all ...
