Get Up And Speak! With Femi Monehin

“…Prophesy to these bones. Tell them to listen to what the Eternal Lord says to them…” 
Eze.37:4 

Every move of God is preceded by a sound. You can have the prophetic Word but nothing happens until you speak it. Everything will wait until you speak. You have to get up and speak. The story is told of a couple who had been married for years and had children. The man was doing well and so was the woman. But the man’s mother brought him a new wife from the village. She told his wife that she had done well but her son needs fresh blood. The man claimed to be faultless in the matter and he took his mother up on the offer. It is sad but some men are just very foolish. But the woman got up and began to speak to the walls of the house; “Walls eject them in the name of Jesus”. She spoke to the spoons, “Spoons eject them in the Name of Jesus”. She spoke to the chair, “Chair eject them…”

She went about the house speaking to inanimate objects. She must have looked very foolish but guess what happened? Exactly as she had spoken, the mother and the new wife did not feel comfortable sitting on the chairs, or eating, or being within the walls of the house. And so they packed their bags and left the couple on their own. The truth is what we have is stronger than charms. In fact, charms are a very poor imitation; the original is with God. But you have to arise, you have to speak, you have to take your place. Nothing happens until you speak, nothing! Why? It is because there is no sphere of life that is beyond the influence of the Power of Christ.

“…Prophesy to these bones. Tell them to listen to what the Eternal Lord says to them…” Eze.37:4 , emphasis added]. So the question is, what is God saying about that situation? I have told you one already, God is saying you are going to move from death to life. It is not what your feelings are saying. God did not say go and tell them to listen to what your feelings are saying. Some of us  are just ruled by our feelings, totally emotional. And we just go like a yoyo in  the direction of our feelings. Some others want to get their directions from their friends. God did not say go and tell the bones what your friends have said. God said go and tell the bones what I have said. What is God saying?

Prayer: Lord, please empower me to peak only Your truth into the situations I am confronted with, in Jesus Name.

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 ...
