“The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, He will show you a way out so that you can endure” 
- 1 Cor.10:13

We cannot thank God enough for the gift of His Presence. We thank God for the gift of His Word and all that it is doing in our lives. I pray that in your life and your home, God will do things that eyes have not seen, ears have never heard, and that which man has not even imagined and Jesus alone will be glorified. There is a huge emphasis on what God is doing in this season, so I implore you to stay focused and get the best value. I know that God has a lot in store for us, so please stay focused.

Please read Ezekiel 37:1–14. For some of you, the current situation is of someone who rises but is always pulled back down. You are never able to rise and soar. In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, before this season is over, God will totally cut the claws of the crabs. Some days ago we talked about Lazarus’ situation that had deteriorated from sickness, to death, he had begun to rot, to decay and to smell. Then Jesus Christ of Nazareth reversed the situation totally.

In the story of Ezekiel [Eze.37:1–14], we see a similar but even more advanced situation. The Bible describes these bones as completely dry. The picture painted here is of the most impossible situation. Know this, no matter what the situation is, the Power of God is able to reverse the situation. God is saying to us, I am able to move you from Death to Life, and I will.

A lot of people fret when they see storms and problems. But we need not fret any longer because storms are a part of life. In fact, storms are so natural to life that it is either you have just come out of a storm, or you are in the middle of a storm, or a storm is about to hit. But you need to know that the storm is not the problem. Storms happen to everybody, even Jesus the Son of the Living God experienced physical storms. How much more you and I?

So if you are going through a storm, the problem is not the storm. If you are going through adversity, the problem is not the adversity. Stop paying so much attention to your problem. God says, “No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man…” [NKJV]. It is common to man; your own is not special, so do not specialize it.

Prayer [song]: I have made You too small in my eyes, O Lord, forgive me. I have believed in a lie that You are unable to help me… Be magnified O Lord… Amen!

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...

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...

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 ...
