For His Glory


“I was afraid I would lose your money, so I hid it in the earth. Look, here is your money back.” Matt.25:25

The fourth enemy of exploitation is Fear. Please read Matthew 25:14-20. The servant said, “I was afraid…” Fear is a major challenge for a lot of us. A lot of people would have gone very far in life but for fear. They are afraid to take a step or to exploit a situation. God will break the back of that fear in Jesus Name. But if you further examine what this same servant said, this servant that did not take full advantage and was not productive, he said, “Master, I knew you were a harsh man, harvesting crops you didn’t plant and gathering crops you didn’t cultivate”. In other words, he was saying his master is an exploitative person. The master said, “you know I operate the Principle of Exploitation, at least you should have put my money in the bank.”

God is saying to you and I - I expect you to be exploitative. I expect you to get maximum results from everything I have given you. I expect results! Immediately I learned that not exploiting your gifts, your talents, your resources, and your relationships to the glory of God can take you to hell. I know it is harsh but these words did not originate from me. It is in the Bible; Jesus said it. God is not interested in you returning to Him just what He gave you. God wants results. God wants it multiplied.

Note that the servant was not even apologizing to the master for losing the money. That would be a different thing. But he did nothing with the talents given to him. If you show up before God and say all I did is protect my gifts and my talents; I can give it back to you, Lord. God says I am not interested. I want results. Many destinies have been crippled by fear. I pray that yours will not be one of them, in Jesus Name.

God wants you to get rid of fear. Sometimes we think we cannot live without fear or that it is normal to live with fear. No, it is not normal. God has only one solution to fear [1 John 4:18], cast it out, banish fear totally. If you can deal with fear, you are almost unstoppable. Fear is one of the major things that keep people grounded. So people do not do the things they ought to do because of fear.

Prayer:  I decree in the Name of Jesus that I will not be grounded by fear. I totally banish fear from my life, in Jesus Name

Dominion Mandate Daily Devotional Thursday,March 3

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...

A Partaker Of Other People's Sins? - Pastor E.A Adeboye

Open Heavens Daily Devotional Friday July 15th 2016 Memory Verse: Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins: keep thyself pure. - 1 Timothy 5:22 Bible Reading: 2 Chronicles 18:28-34 28. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.  29. And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and will go to the battle; but put thou on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went to the battle.  30. Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of the chariots that were with him, saying, Fight ye not with small or great, save only with the king of Israel.  31. And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the Lord helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.  32.For it came to pass, that, whe...

We Fail To Achieve Greatness Because We Fear Success By John Hagee

John Hagee Daily Devotional Thursday 11th August 2016  I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.  - One reason we do not reach excellence is because of our fear of failure.  Failure is a better teacher than success.  Every great success story has its element of failure.  You have not failed until you quit; only then have you failed.  After Thomas Edison finished his 700th experiment trying to develop the electric light his assistant said, “We have failed.”  Edison replied, “No.   We have found 700 ways that will not work.  Do not call these 700 experiments mistakes; call them our education.  Now let’s keep going until we find the answer.”  Are you afraid of failure?  Then you’ll never succeed.  You’ll never stub your toe standing still.  Remember the turtle, he never gets anywhere until he sticks his neck out.  You can’t succeed if you’re not willing to risk failure. Have you failed? Get up. ...
