Dare To Move 

By

“Then David asked the Lord, “Should I chase after this band of raiders? Will I catch them?” And the Lord told him, “Yes, go after them. You will surely recover everything that was taken from you!”  1 Sam.30:8

God is taking us on a journey. I believe that for some of us reading today’s devotional [I pray for all of us], God is moving you from relegation to promotion. God’s Word for you is victory and to secure victory, we need to deploy proven principles of war. In deploying these principles of war, victory is assured.

The Principle of the Offensive is: advance and attack the opposition, grab and exploit the opportunities. After you have set a clear objective, the next thing is to advance. Begin to move forward, begin to attack, begin to grab, begin to seize, and begin to exploit opportunities. Sadly, a lot of us are passive. We are just sitting and waiting for a miracle. Waiting for heaven to do stuff. But God is saying, you advance, you attack, you seize and grab the opportunities.

“…We wandered around in the region of Mount Seir for a long time. “Then at last the Lord said to me, ‘You have been wandering around in this hill country long enough; turn to the north” Deut.2:1-3. The children of Israel found themselves in an interesting situation, very similar to where a lot of us find ourselves today. You have been wandering around that situation long enough. It is time to move on the offensive. I am here to challenge you and to speak into your life by the grace of God. I am here to say to you, dare to move forward. Dare to take the step.

Check Scripture - from Genesis to Revelations, you will discover that every time a move of God is about to start, it is always preceded by a sound [like a clarion call]. For example, in the beginning the earth was without form and void, darkness was upon the face of the deep, the Spirit of the Lord moved upon the face of the deep and God said let there be light [paraphrased from Gen.1:1-3]. There must have been a loud thunderous sound and then light. Elijah said I hear the sound of the abundance of rain and rain started [1Kings 18:41]. In the New Testament, there was a sound of a mighty rushing wind and the Holy Ghost was released [Acts 2:2]. God is giving you the sound now - dare to move forward! Attack!

Prayer: Father, thank You for sending Your voice ahead of me and giving me victory. I dare to move forward in my life, my business, my marriage and family, in Jesus Name

His Channels

By
Rom.1:20 For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God [with emphasis]. So far we have examined three channels God uses to speak to us. If you are not reading your Bible consistently, if you are not listening to messages over and over again, and if you are not accountable to other believers, you do not have believers that are speaking into your life, you have already missed three main channels God speaks through. Channel #4: God speaks to us through His Creation. Ps.19:1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. 2 Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. 3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. 4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world [with emphasis]. God’s cre...

Dominion Mandate Daily Devotional February 26, 2016

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 ...

Setting Prisoners Free

By
Our Daily Bread Devotional 4th October, 2016 Read: Psalm 146 Bible in a Year: Isaiah 20-22; Ephesians 6 The Lord sets prisoners free. (Psalm 146:7) When my wife and I visited the National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force near Savannah, Georgia, we were especially moved by the prisoner-of-war exhibit, with its re-creation of a German prisoner-of-war camp’s barracks. Marlene’s dad, Jim, served in the Eighth Air Force, the “Mighty Eighth,” as they flew missions over Europe during World War II. During the war, the Eighth Air Force suffered over 47,000 injuries and more than 26,000 deaths. Jim was one of those shot down and held as a prisoner of war. As we walked through the exhibit, we recalled Jim telling about the absolute joy he and his fellow prisoners felt the day they were set free. God’s care for the oppressed and liberation of the imprisoned are declared in Psalm 146. The psalmist describes the one who “upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the ...
