Get Up And Speak! With Femi Monehin

Fresh Fire Daily Devotional Monday 29th August 2016

 “…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: 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 ...

A NEW MONTH OF DIVINE ANNOUNCEMENT

By
But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. Luke 1:13 The Bible is replete of records on how God announced some events before they finally happened. Because you made it into the new Month, God will specially announce you in Jesus name.  Whenever God want to do something unusual, He first of all announce it, for instance, when He wanted to delivered the children of Israelite from the hand of the philistine whom He has delivered them to, He sent an angel to break the new to the parent of the deliverer - Samson. Judges 13.  When God wanted to turn the hearts of men back to Himself, He sent angel Gabriel to announced the birth of John the Baptist to his father, Zacharias. Also when God was fully ready for the redemption of man, He first announced it to the one whose body His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ will pass through to the earth. Luke 1:26-38. That was the...

Nothing To Do, Only Believe By Joseph Prince

By
Daily Grace Inspirations Thursday 11th August 2016 …“What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.” - John 6:28–29 When I was a young Christian, I attended a seminar on what we must do to “work the works of God”. I was told that we had to pray more, fast more, know our enemy and so on. I came away from the seminar confused. Then one day, I found the same question in the Bible. But the answer was very different! In the Gospel of John, we find Jesus being asked the same question by the multitude who had been awed by His miracles—“What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” The people had seen Jesus healing the sick, and feeding 5,000 men with only five loaves and two fish. Notice how Jesus answered them: “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.” My friend, the greatest doing is believing—believing in Jesus the sent one, who has done it all ...
