“How could one person chase a thousand of them, and two people put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, unless the LORD had given them up?” 
- Deu.32:30

When God gives you an instruction to give something and you hold on to it, that thing is marked for consumption. For instance, God says give your pen to that lady. If you obey and give her the pen, it gets credited to your account in heaven where thieves cannot reach it.  However, if you hold on to the pen you are holding on to something that does not belong to you. You are holding on to something heaven has labeled “for takes”. I know this may sound rather harsh but it is the truth of God’s Word.

So you are better off giving what God has asked you to give. And guess what, you get account credit in heaven and God also blesses you for it. Giving is just the way to go. Make a list of all the important people in your life and determine by yourself what it will take for them to be happy in their relationship with you. Take this assignment very seriously. Whatever will make them happy, that thing is your contribution. Go ahead and make the contribution.

Who are the most important people in my life? Your spouse – what will it take for your spouse to be happy in his or her relationship with you? That is your contribution; make that contribution. What will it take for your children to be delighted in their relationship with you? Note that that is your contribution, so start making it. What will it take for your boss to be excited every time you step into the office? What it will take, is your contribution; do it! Do these things and you will see how people will turn in your favour. You cannot continue to behave like a vagabond and expect that your prayer for favour will amount to anything.

#4. None of Us Is Stronger Than All of Us. To unlock concerted action, realize that none of us is stronger than all of us. None of us is more anointed than all of us. Even if you are so anointed, by the time another person adds their “small” anointing to yours, it will still be more than your big anointing. Let us say you have thirty billion dollars in your account and somebody else has a hundred dollars in their account. By the time you come together, you will still have more than you had initially.

Prayer: Holy Spirit, please give me a burden for my contributions and let me not rest until I have made them and honored God, 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...

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 ...
