Happy New Month and Welcome to July... It's Your Month of Completion!

Among the Pythagoreans (who led a life of meditation, arithmetic and music) otherwise called number philosophers, there is a correlation between numbers and the spiritual life. Seven (7) is conceived to be a complete number, representing a consummation of things, a completion of a cycle, and its return into itself. So in the Seventh Sephirah, beginning a new triad and in closing the second series of Sephiros, is summed up anew all the former potencies. They agree that it's (7) nature is one of love and the force of attrac￾tion ; the power of cohesion in the universe, binding one thing to another, and acting as the instinctual intelligence among living creatures. It carries the emblem of love and emotion; likewise the colour green, which, traditionally, belongs to Aphrodite, as the forces pertaining to that Sephirah are peculiarly connected with growth, harvest and agriculture.

Whatever these beautiful insights are, the Scripture itself holds that Jesus, while on the Cross, spoke Seven Words ending with; "It is consummated."(Jn 19:30). With these words Christ ended the sacrifice with his blood on our behalf and ushered us into life by his death.
In this Seventh month of the year, I'm inviting you to join us in a triad of seven for a Spiritual Encounter (a warfare) tagged: "It is Completed;" to pray for that desired best that is delaying to manifest in your life. It's settled! *SEE YOU AT THE TOP.*

*Day Eighty-four: Beginning of Seven (7) Days of Praise and Prayer of Thanksgiving for Answered Prayers*
*Power Text* : Acts 4:31
"After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly." NIV
*Reflection*
God is a God of signs and wonders. He answers our prayers in signs. The visible evidence of His presence is:"The place was shaken where they were assembled together." It reveals the unmistakable proof of divine power as well as a reliable sign of divine nearness and assurance of protection. At all times He's same as yesterday.
*Prayer*
My Father my Maker...I thank you for bringing me this far in this Vigil and for all it's benefits.“Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth me with benefits, even the God of my salvation” (Psalm 68:19).
Your grace is what made all things good, possible and available to me... especially, the peace and enabling environment to pray. This is why, even with my last breath I thank you; because you are yesterday, today and tomorrow the same.
I know that I do not deserve all the credits, gifts and trophies I have received, I give Thee back all the glory...for you've always been there for me to give protection, provision, and strength for each new day.
I thank you my creator for your breath upon me, especially, the gift of your Holy Spirit, and for your presence that strives with me through.
Thank you for your precious gift of my salvation. I thank you speedy answers to my prayers. As long as I live, I shall continue to bless You, my rock, my salvation and refuge. Be exalted Oh Lord in my life and those of my generation...in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

90 Days Vigil (Day 71-80): Beginning of Ten Days Onslaught on the Enemies Territory (To get the daily prayer points and reflections is via WhatsApp...ask to be added 08139210901... WhatsApp pls)

Power Text: Ephesians 6:10-12
A Fight to the Finish
"And that about wraps it up. God is strong, and he wants you strong. So take everything the Master has set out for you, well-made weapons of the best materials. And put them to use so you will be able to stand up to everything the Devil throws your way. This is no afternoon athletic contest that we'll walk away from and forget about in a couple of hours. This is for keeps, a life-or-death fight to the finish against the Devil and all his angels." MSG
Reflection
Deliverance is the heritage of the Kingdom, only for the children of God. If you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, this is the best time to do so before embarking on these prayers...if you want to exercise authority and power in the name of Jesus Christ. The Scripture says, “Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.” - Luke 9:1. Again in Mark, Jesus said,you “And these signs shall follow them that believe; in my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover”(6:17-18). These promises are for the Children of God. As believers, we are not to chase for signs, rather signs should accompany us. Food that is meant for the children will not be given to the dogs. Mt 15:26.
If you really want to be delivered from any bo***ge of the wicked (spiritual war) and be set free from any form of captivity, I ask you today to give your life to Christ. If we are set to Pray...say this Prayer:
In the book of Job 22:28, the Scripture says when I decree a thing, it shall be established for me. I stand on the authority of this Scripture and decree. That I have come into the presence of God to plead my case. I enter through the gate of praise into the sanctuary of heaven. I cover myself in the precious blood of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Today, I received divine strength to pray; I will not pray in vain. I will not pray amiss. My prayers will bring the desired results. I command the fountain of prayer to open now, and flow into my life, I command the warring angels of God to descend and fight on our behalf. Every minute and every hour that I spend in this prayer will bring solution. Every prayer point will attract divine attention and divine intervention. I decree open heavens over these prayers, and today, God of heaven and earth will attend to our case. Our prayers today will shake the heavens and move the earth; testimonies, miracles, healing, breakthrough, signs and wonders will follow these prayers. At the end of this prayer session, our lives will never be the same again.

Day Sixty-five of 90 Days Vigil- Project Ploughshare Continues: Wisdom/Discernment for World Peace - More 7 Days Prayer for World Leaders

Power Text: Proverbs 28:2
"When a country is rebellious, it has many rulers, but a ruler with discernment and knowledge maintains order." NIV
Reflection
The Bible makes it clear that wisdom is profitable to direct. Wisdom is something we must all seek. Considering the pressures that come with leadership. It's a wholesome thought, compassionate and acting within our faith to pray for wisdom and discernment for our leaders and prospective leaders daily.
Prayer
Oh God our Father, on this day of this Vigil, we thank you, for the peace granted us to pray uninterrupted for this straight sixty-five days without molestation from any side by the devil...Daddy we do not take it for granted...we thank you. We are aware that we are in trouble times but that our times are in your hands. Display your presence and your power in our nations. As you Father, Son and Holy Spirit are united, unite us in your love that it may stir our hearts and give direction to our days. Give the rulers of our world wisdom to guide us and your Spirit to lead us that we may live out to the fullest of our destinies in you. We believe that you are with us in the present situation and you will fight for us to bring the peace needed in our world at this time. We ask this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

90 Days Vigil (Day 58) Week of Project Ploughshare: 7Days Aggressive Prayer for World Peace

Power Text: Isaiah 2:4
"He shall judge between the nations, And rebuke many people; They shall beat their swords into plowshares, And their spears into pruning hooks; Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war anymore." NKJV
Project Ploughshares takes its name and its vision from the ancient biblical vision in the Book of Isaiah in which the material and human wealth consumed by military preparations are transformed into resources for human development, thereby removing the roots of war itself. We shall in this week pray aggressively for global peace and ask the Holy Spirit - the "harbinger of peace" to instill peace in our world. Specially, ask God's mercy and intervention in the dispute rocking the Ukraine and Russia.
*Note* that our procedure in this Vigil hasn't changed; namely, entering the Lord's court with praise for 10 to 15 minutes, followed by prayers of declaration. Our time remains 11:55 pm prompt. God bless you.

*Week Seven to Nine: 21 Days of Prayer of Breakthrough for Financial Release and Increase*

According to the Good News Translation of Proverbs 10:15, "Wealth protects the rich; poverty destroys the poor." And in 14:20, "The poor is hated even of his own neighbour: but the rich hath many friends."
Breakthrough is simply a change that desperately needs to happen in our lives. When we pray for a breakthrough in our finances, we can boldly ask God to change our financial situations according to his will. According to those passages we can see that money is needed to keep life move at a considerable speed.
However, we are not praying ignorantly as pagans do since we know the kingdom principles behind supernatural intervention concerning riches...namely, having a "kingdom seeking" approach and desire for "rightstanding." We are reminded that the principle of receiving is akin to that of giving (see Lk 6:38). We shall proceed in this 21days of this vigil to make powerful prophetic declarations to end financial stagnation. Remember, we must seek God's mercy and repent of our sins if we must command particular grace for financial and all round breakthrough.

*Time of vigil is 11:55 pm to 12:30 am. God bless you.*

Week Six: (Day 36) Week of Prayer for Actualization of Dreams and Goals

The Bible says in Jeremiah 29:11, For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. NIV
Every year as we approach the end of one year, we begin praying that the new year would come in with blessings from God. Then we begin to reach certain decisions and make few adjustments for the mew year.
Individually we've seen many struggles, but we know without a shadow of a doubt, that God can change circumstances and make the new year a year of uncommon blessing for realization of our dreams and aspirations.
But except the Lord builds the city, the laborers shall do so in vain. (Ps 127:1). Hence Scripture commands us: "Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established."(Prov 16:3). So if we commit our ways to him, he will direct our steps to the actualization of our goals.
In this week we shall continue in this vigil to focus and direct our prayers base on God's Word and his promises towards the actualization of our dreams and aspirations for the year 2022 and beyond.
God bless you.

*Week 5 of 90 Days Midnight Vigil: Week of declarative prayers: "Possessing the gates of our enemies"*

One of the devices of satan is to encourage unbelivers to raise altars to him through idolatry, occultism, religious perversion and vain traditions. These satanic altars provide for satan a gate of entry, control and manifestations of his power in the lives of people and in the environment. This is why people, even believers, pursue dreams but often fail. They make decisions for God and themselves but fail to bring them about. These experiences are indicative of satanic influence and demonic infiltration into people’s lives. This is made possible by the existence of satanic gates providing points of entry.
Satanic gates cause hindrance to a person’s growth and progress in different areas of life, just as how physical gates impede progress. Spiritual gates may prevent a person from getting married, having babies, having financial breakthrough, getting promoted, earning a degree, experiencing growth in the ministry or causing family crises.
In some families we see patterns of the disasters and afflictions that they suffer. They occur at a particular month, season, place or age. This may indicate the operation of satanic gates set up against them. The Bible did not leave us about satanic gates; "...that the gates of hell shall not prevail against us." Warns us not to be ignorant lest satan take advantage of us. ( 2 Cor. 2:11). In this 5th week, we shall possess the gates of our enemies (Gen. 22:17 and Gen 24:60), in Seven (7) Midnights.

Week 4: (Day 22) Week of Prayer for Divine Direction

At the beginning of the year, we make a number of decisions. Some are clear-cut...others are not as such. What do we do when we don’t know what to do? When there’s no apparent right answer and no obvious wrong one? When we just want what God wants, but we have no idea what that is?
First, we must remind ourselves of the truth that God doesn’t want His will to be a mystery to us. Hence, we draw near to Him in faith, asking Him to guide us. His methods are limitless, but one thing is sure; if we ask him for wisdom and direction, or discernment in our relationships, he is able to help us. In this week, we shall focus on prayer for divine direction and God’s guidance as we progress on in the year.

Day Fifteen (Week 3): Week of Prayer for Healing of Mental and Bodily Ailments

Why Pray for Healing of Bodily Ailments?

Illness, health and wellness are among mankind’s most fundamental concerns. Beliefs and practices regarding health and wellness are naturally prominent phenomenon among world religions, with Christianity not an exception. The New Testament stories, themes and attitudes regarding health and wellness reflect the ideas and concerns that Christians (ancient and modern) bother about this basic human need. Christ did not leave any stone unturned to deal with it. Although under the theological lenses through which sickness and healing have been regarded in Christianity across various denominations, two general views of spiritual causes of illness have consistently run through Christian thought and belief. The first is the idea that sickness and affliction can be caused by forces or spirits opposed to God. The cause of illness, according to this view, is satan, demons, unclean spirits or other malevolent powers that sicken a hapless individual--often an innocent victim. Healing in these cases have always involved seeking the intervention of divine powers to face down and defeat the spirits or demons.wn and defeat the spirits or demons.
