8 Though we experience every kind of pressure, we’re not crushed. At times we don’t know what to do, but quitting is not an option. 9 We are persecuted by others, but God has not forsaken us. We may be knocked down, but not out.
2 Corinthians 4:8‭-‬9 TPT

It can get overwhelming, sometimes. The pressure can get high. Holding every facet of life together may put you under some pressure. The path may be undulating. Living for God and fulfilling purpose will attract persecution. But no matter what comes at you, know that you cannot be knocked out.

No matter where you are at, always live in the knowing that you're not alone, that God cannot forsake you. No matter how hard the pressing is, you cannot be crushed -- at the end, the pressing will yield new wine for many to drink and be satisfied. Was it not the path of the Cross that led to the glory we currently enjoy? It is with this hope and confidence that we engage life day-by-day. Shake off that defeat visage. Rise with renewed hope. Rise to a new strength. And carry your cross well, till you walk into your glory. You will, definitely.

Jesus carried the cross in such a way that it became a symbol of hope, grace, and love for us. Carry the trials, tests, and pressures that come to you in such a way that, at the end, it becomes a testimony of encouragement for another. Let your pain be an emblem of salvation for another person. Don't crack under that cross.

"I will hoist the flag of my victory some day, that he that is going through the path I've walked may have hope of victory."

Sunday:
Your church media shares Sunday service pics, and we see you lifting 'holy hands' with intense holy facial expression.

Monday:
You post a video of how your Friday night went for you, and we see you rocking a lady in hot dance in a 'till mama call you' party.

Bro, are you not confused?

I just say make I ask o.

Please let's be telling ourselves the truth!

03/07/2022

WAIT! BEFORE YOU MARRY!

How I wish I knew that my upbringing could play out in marriage.

How I wish I knew that we could have issues as a result of our temperamental differences.

How I wish I knew that we could still have some communication issues, even though I talk a lot.

How I wish I knew that, sometimes, we are not all lovey-dovey even though we still love each other.

How I wish I knew that seemingly little matters that didn't have to matter could be a serious matter.

How I wish I knew that facing reality in marriage is a full time job.

Yes.
We all have some unspoken expectations about marriage, but reality will always play out. And those that are not rightly equipped will most likely back out, because they didn't expect what they saw (and they were not equipped to handle what they saw.)

Do you know that s*x could be a challenge for first timers?

Do you know that your first year of marriage could be hell, if you don't enter with adequate knowledge?

Do you know about the realities of marriage, beyond the lovey-dovey things of dating?

Yes.
There are certain realities of marriage you need to be aware of, as an intending bride or a newly wedded wife, that will help you position yourself better for a successful marriage.

Join me on Sunday, 3rd July, 2022 (by 7.30pm, GMT+1) as we discuss on THE REALITIES OF MARRIAGE

2022 ELECTORAL ENFORCERS
(A 3-Day Fasting And Prayers Towards The Presidential Primaries, Using That Of APC And PDP Holding This Weekend As Point Of Contact)

Day 3: NULLIFYING THE SCHEME OF DARKNESS

1 How dare the nations plan a rebellion. Their foolish plots are futile!

2 Look at how the power brokers of the world rise up to hold their summit as the rulers scheme and confer together against Yahweh and his Anointed King, saying:

3 “Let’s come together and break away from the Creator. Once and for all let’s cast off these controlling chains of God and his Christ!”

4 God-Enthroned merely laughs at them; the Sovereign One mocks their madness!

5 Then with the fierceness of his fiery anger he settles the issue and terrifies them to death with these words:

6 “I myself have poured out my King on Zion, my holy mountain.

Psalms 2:1‭-‬6 TPT

The Scriptures reveals that for every plan of God, there will always be counter plan/scheme of darkness, to try to thwart the will of God.
There will always be a gathering together of the world's power brokers who don't care one bit about the plans of YHWH.
As the political parties go into the their presidential primaries, there will be the gathering of those that think themselves to be the power brokers.

But the response of God to all these is striking - He laughs! He merely laughs! Because He can't just understand why men will be so senseless to try to poke their fingers into the eyes of the Almighty.
God laughs, and then He reveals His solution: "I have set my Kings/Sons upon mount Zion!" Then the Son began to speak from verse 7, and that's where we come in.

We are also sited in heaven, and we also laugh at their plans and schemes. And then with fierceness, we speak!

We will be speaking today, and nullifying the schemes of darkness against the presidential primaries.

Cry 1: We set forth (spiritual) Light into the atmosphere to nullify every (spiritual) darkness

2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

3 Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.
Ge 1:2‭-‬3 NKJV

And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
Joh 1:5 NKJV

We set forth light to swallow every darkness and every negative altar raised.

Cry 2: Let the fire that goes before the LORD consume every enemy and contrary scheme

A fire goes before Him, And burns up His enemies round about.
Ps 97:3 NKJV

All around him burns a blazing glory-fire consuming all his foes.
Psalms 97:3 TPT

Every and anything that is set to thwart the purpose of God, as concerning this presidential primaries, is consumed right now!

We set forth God's glory-fire in every place the primaries will be held.

DAY 2: TAKE OVER LORD

++
It’s as easy for God to steer a king’s heart for his purposes as it is for him to direct the course of a stream.
Proverbs 21:1 TPT

Today's burden is easy.
We will be asking the LORD to take over the hearts of every delegate that will be involved in the presidential primaries. Our Scripture says it's an easy matter for God to do!

The heart of every man (believer or unbeliever, king or common man, male or female, delegate or no delegate, etc) is in the hands of God, and He chooses to direct it for His purposes, EASILY.

So for the primaries holding this weekend and more to come, we declare that the counsel of God prevails. He will take hold of every hand that will vote and guide it to accomplish His purpose.

++
There are many plans in a man’s heart, Nevertheless the Lord’s counsel—that will stand.
Pr 19:21 NKJV

Yes, these delegates would have had their plans before now, but we are declaring that the counsel of the LORD stands.

Amen

DAY 1 BURDEN: CRY FOR MERCY

THANKSGIVING

1 Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.
4 To Him who alone does great wonders, For His mercy endures forever;
Ps 136:1‭, ‬4 NKJV

Spend some time in thanksgiving. The LORD has kept Nigeria all these years.

God is the God of great wonders, give Him thanks.
For the unity we have seen, give Him thanks.
For the progress we have experienced, give Him thanks.
For the church in Nigeria, give Him thanks

CRY 1

2 in the first year of his reign I, Daniel, understood by the books the number of the years specified by the word of the Lord through Jeremiah the prophet, that He would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.

3 *Then I set my face toward the Lord God to make request by prayer and supplications, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes.*

4 And I prayed to the Lord my God, and made confession, and said, “O Lord, great and awesome God, *who keeps His covenant and mercy with those who love Him, and with those who keep His commandments,*

5 *we have sinned and committed iniquity, we have done wickedly and rebelled, even by departing from Your precepts and Your judgments.*

6 Neither have we heeded Your servants the prophets, who spoke in Your name to our kings and our princes, to our fathers and all the people of the land.

9 *To the Lord our God belong mercy and forgiveness, though we have rebelled against Him.*

16 “O Lord, according to all Your righteousness, I pray, let Your anger and Your fury be turned away from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain; *because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people are a reproach to all those around us.*

Daniel 9:2‭-‬6‭, ‬9‭, ‬16 NKJV

Our land is guilty!
Leaders have committed atrocities.
Citizens have committed evil.
A lot of innocent blood shed on the land.
A lot of contravening of the covenant of YHWH.

Yes, we are guilty. And the judgement is death!

But mercy, by the Blood of Jesus, is the currency that can turn the judgement of 'guilty' to 'not guilty' and turn death to life.

And so today, we would be pleading mercy for Nigeria.

For every wrong governance, mercy LORD.
For every bloodshed, mercy LORD.
For every contravening of Your covenant, mercy LORD.
For the times we've not listened to You, mercy LORD.
For all the sins and iniquities upon our land, we cry for mercy today O LORD.

With tears and an assurance in the power of the Blood, we declare that the mercy of God comes upon Nigeria.

CRY 2

21 And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed those who should sing to the Lord, and who should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army and were saying: “Praise the Lord, *For His mercy endures forever.”*

22 *Now when they began to sing and to praise, the Lord set ambushes against the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were defeated.*

23 For the people of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir to utterly kill and destroy them. And when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.
2Ch 20:21‭-‬23 NKJV

Mercy is also a war cry! It is a chant that brings God into the battle arena!

In the book of Psalms, the psalmist reveals that the deliverance of a people/land lies in the mercy of God (Ps 136:24 NKJV - And rescued us from our enemies, For His mercy endures forever.)

Little wonder Israel would chant, by revelation, "Praise the LORD, for His mercy endures forever" in the face of battle, and victory would come in the most unlikely way - the enemies rising against each other! Their unity was turned to disunity.

In the face of this electoral battle, let's chant God's mercy over the land of Nigeria. Let God step into this battle arena!

P.S:
1. You can conclude your fasting at YOUR time and pray, as the Spirit leads you.
Also let these prayers be in your spirit throughout the day; just keep pleading mercy over Nigeria as you walk through the day.

2. You can join me to pray every midnight for these three (3) days, over the daily burdens.

Day 14 (Prayer for Restoration)

Joel 2:15, 25 (KJV)
Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly: And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.

They usually say that time cannot be gotten back; that if you waste this minute, then you've lost it forever.
Well, that's true - you cannot bring back this particular minute into your life. However, by the mercies of God, you can recover the results you were meant to have in the time you lost.

That's God restoration! And God is saying today that there are things you have lost as a result of your carelessness, ineffectiveness, and the attacks of the devil. He is saying that those things will be restored to you! Did I just hear an 'Amen'?

Just read that opening Scripture again. The years that you've lost! The value you've lost! The contracts you've lost! The money you've lost! Whatever you've lost, God is going to bring a restoration to you in this season of waiting on the LORD.

I see the LORD doing something to your feet.
Yes! Yes!!
He is granting speed to you. He is enabling you to run faster than usual.
I see you catching up. I see you covering miles. I see God taking you through short routes so you can catch up!

Hahahaha!

Phew!

Glory!

Anchor Scriptures:

Joel 2:25 (GNT)
I will give you back what you lost in the years when swarms of locusts ate your crops. It was I who sent this army against you.

Isaiah 42:22 (NKJV)
But this is a people robbed and plundered; All of them are snared in holes, And they are hidden in prison houses; They are for prey, and no one delivers; For plunder, and no one says, "Restore!"

Job 42:10 (NKJV)
And the LORD restored Job's losses when he prayed for his friends. Indeed the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.

Prayer Points:

- LORD, I cry "Restore!" today.
Begin to cry for God's mercy and restoration.

- Pray that God repays you everything you have lost, in double measure.

- Begin to rebuke the devourer; declare that his works are not made manifest in your life, marriage, relationship, projects, career, business, etc.

Day 11 (Breaking of Yokes)

Ge 27:40 NKJV
By your sword you shall live, And you shall serve your brother; And it shall come to pass, when you become restless, That you shall break his yoke from your neck.”

It means that the yoke will keep being there until you become restless, in other words, as long as you keep being comfortable with the yoke on, then there will be no change.

But, as soon as you get angry, as soon as you say no to that yoke, then deliverance has come.

So many times we get comfortable with situations and even spiritualize it by saying that it might be God's will... ha!
Some things are not God's will at all.

For example, when God says in His word that He wills that we prosper and be in good health, then it just can't be God's will for you to be sick! But you've been undergoing a cycle of sickness... It's a yoke!
Sickness is a yoke from the devil. If you keep seeing it as "God's will" then you will keep being under its influence, but when you are aware that that's not God's will for you and you become restless and strongly desire a change that's when deliverance comes.

Whatever yoke represents in your life or family, today is the day to deal with it.

That age-long negativity is a yoke.
That cycle of failure is a yoke.
That persistent character issue is a yoke.
That negative pattern in your family is a yoke.

Become restless today and deal with it.

Anchor Scriptures:

Genesis 27:39 - 40 MSG
Isaac said to him, You’ll live far from Earth’s bounty, remote from Heaven’s dew. You’ll live by your sword, hand-to-mouth, and you’ll serve your brother. But when you can’t take it any more you’ll break loose and run free.

Obadiah 1:17 NKJV
“But on Mount Zion there shall be deliverance, And there shall be holiness; The house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.

Obadiah 1:21 NKJV
Then saviors shall come to Mount Zion To judge the mountains of Esau, And the kingdom shall be the Lord’s.

Prayer Points:

- Begin to judge/bind the spirit behind every yoke you're currently experiencing.

- Pray in the spirit and cast off the yoke(s), using words.

- Begin to speak the Word of God to the area you're currently experiencing a yoke in. (Say what the Word says to you)

- Begin to apply the Blood of the Lamb over your life.

Day 10 (Supernatural Acts)

2 Kings 3:16-18 (NKJV)
And he said, "Thus says the LORD: 'Make this valley full of ditches.' For thus says the LORD: 'You shall not see wind, nor shall you see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, so that you, your cattle, and your animals may drink.' And this is a simple matter in the sight of the LORD; He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.

"...YET that valley will be filled..." God was letting them know He was going to do something out of the norm. He was going to supply the water supernaturally!
Usually, there should be wind and rain for the valley to be filled with water - that's the way it should be. But God was saying that He doesn't need wind or rain to fill the valley with water! You won't be able to logically see how it will happen, but you will see water there!

Sometimes the reason we miss out of the miracles or supernatural acts of God is that we are trying to understand how God will do what He has said He will do. So God, for example, tells you He's going to bless you with N500,000 ($1000) within the next month, and you start looking around. "Can this my business produce $1000 within the month?" "Is it Uncle A or Uncle B that God will use?" "etc." And after examining these questions logically, you conclude that it is not possible, thereby cutting yourself off from that which God desires to do.

It's good to make plans, but always leave room for the supernatural acts of God.
It's good to learn principles that work, but always leave room for 'the finger of God.'
Learn not to think yourself out of God's promises.

Supernatural acts are still possible. God still sends ravens to deliver meat to His children. God is still giving babies, regardless of age or condition. God is still filling valleys with water, without wind nor rain. God is still causing several gallons of oil to flow out of a cruse of oil. He is still doing it, and He desires to do it for you.
God desires to paint your life with His supernatural acts.

Has He said it?
Yours is to believe it, and then obey whatever He lays in your heart to do.
His is to fulfill it. And fulfilling it is a simple matter before the LORD. Hahahahaha! It's a simple matter in the sight of the LORD. So over here, we are wondering "how possible is this?" But to the LORD, it is a really simple matter. So let's come higher to the LORD's side, as we pray for supernatural acts today.

Anchor Scriptures:

1 Kings 17:6 (MSG)
And sure enough, ravens brought him his meals, both breakfast and supper, and he drank from the brook.

Luke 4:29-30 (GNT)
They rose up, dragged Jesus out of town, and took him to the top of the hill on which their town was built. They meant to throw him over the cliff, but he walked through the middle of the crowd and went his way.

1 Kings 17:15-16 (NKJV)
So she went away and did according to the word of Elijah; and she and he and her household ate for many days. The bin of flour was not used up, nor did the jar of oil run dry, according to the word of the LORD which He spoke by Elijah.

2 Kings 4:5-6 (GNT)
So the woman went into her house with her sons, closed the door, took the small jar of olive oil, and poured oil into the jars as her sons brought them to her. When they had filled all the jars, she asked if there were any more. "That was the last one," one of her sons answered. And the olive oil stopped flowing.

Prayer Points:

- Pray that God will make your life a domain for His supernatural acts.

- Pray that you have supernatural supply.

- Pray to God for grace to hear and strength to obey His instructions per time (e.g. *make this valley full of ditches, *go to the brook, *prepare a meal for the prophet first, *borrow many vessels)

- Thank God for answers

Day 9 (The Brooding of the Spirit)

Earth was a soup of nothingness, a bottomless emptiness, an inky blackness. GOD'S SPIRIT BROODED LIKE A BIRD ABOVE THE WATERY ABYSS. God spoke: “Light!” And light appeared.
Genesis 1:2-3 MSG

A soup of NOTHINGNESS!
A bottomless EMPTINESS!
An inky BLACKNESS!
A WASTELAND!

That was the former state of our earth. But now we have all things BEAUTIFUL. There was a transformation through the Speakings of YHWH. The wasteland was turned into a lush garden.

What are those situations that look dead, empty, and ugly? They can be transformed! Never get to that point where you believe that you're hopeless... that nothing can be done again. No! There's no situation, no matter the duration or the seeming severity, that God cannot handle. Not one exists.

For with God nothing will be impossible.”
Lu 1:37 NKJV

Did you see that?
Once you're WITH God, nothing will be impossible. I mean, is it not this same God that turned the 'nothingness, emptiness, blackness' earth into a beauty? He will not change on your account!

So God spoke into the earth and things began to change. However, kindly note that before the LORD spoke, there was the brooding of the Spirit.

Kabaya!

The brooding of the Spirit is the prerequisite to the transformation!

If the Holy Ghost broods on that situation, it becomes ripe for transformation.

Ayayaya

I see a brooding of the Spirit.
Things are getting ripened in the spirit realm. The Holy Ghost is brooding. He is resting and setting the stage for your speakings.

"Holy Ghost, rest on those waste situations. Rest."

Come on, begin to say that to those issues.

"Rest O Holy Ghost. Rest."

Rest

Rest

Rest

On my relationship, rest.
On my business, rest.
On my marriage and family, rest.
On my health, rest.

Ahhh.
Sickness goes right now! I rebuke that spirit of infirmity; out of that body now! I speak life into you. Rise from that bed of sickness now.

Glory to God!

The Brooding of the Spirit is powerful, and that's what we will be praying throughout today.

Anchor Scriptures:
Luke 1:35 , 37 NKJV
And the angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God. 37 For with God nothing will be impossible.”

Luke 1:35 , 37 TPT
35 Gabriel answered, “The Spirit of Holiness will fall upon you and almighty God will spread his shadow of power over you in a cloud of glory! This is why the child born to you will be holy, and he will be called the Son of God.
37 Not one promise from God is empty of power, for nothing is impossible with God!”

Isaiah 32:15 NKJV
Until the Spirit is poured upon us from on high, And the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, And the fruitful field is counted as a forest.

Isaiah 32:15 GNT
But once more God will send us his spirit. The wasteland will become fertile, and fields will produce rich crops.

Prayer Points:
- Spend some time in worship and fellowship with the Spirit of God

- Keep declaring, "Holy Ghost, rest" ("Holy Ghost, brood") over every situation you're believing God for.

- Begin to speak God's word over those situations right now. Pray that your wasteland becomes fertile, your fields (businesses) produce rich crops, etc.

- Dance and rejoice in His Presence

Day 8 (Prayer for The New!)

Isaiah 43:16-19 (NLT)
I am the LORD, who opened a way through the waters, making a dry path through the sea. I called forth the mighty army of Egypt with all its chariots and horses. I drew them beneath the waves, and they drowned, their lives snuffed out like a smoldering candlewick. "But forget all that- it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.

Regardless of where you are, there's still room for THE NEW.
Yes, you may have experienced some great things in the past. You may have seen one act of God's faithfulness or the other, but that's not all there is to God! That He told you to strike the rock today doesn't mean He won't tell you to speak to the rock tomorrow. That He sends a raven to you today doesn't mean He won't send you to a widow tomorrow. God's provision system is dynamic; don't box Him in with your regular salary.

God is still in the business of unfolding His layers to you! You've seen one layer; it's time for another layer! It's time to experience the new.
Today, God is saying that you should forget the former things. Don't box God in by holding onto your past experiences. Open up yourself to the amazing possibilities in God. That

Anchor Scriptures:
Isaiah 43:18-19 (NKJV)
"Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert.

Psalm 40:3 (NLT)
He has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what he has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the LORD.

Isaiah 42:9 (NKJV)
Behold, the former things have come to pass, And new things I declare; Before they spring forth I tell you of them."

Isaiah 55:10-11 (NLT)
"The rain and snow come down from the heavens and stay on the ground to water the earth. They cause the grain to grow, producing seed for the farmer and bread for the hungry. It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it.

Prayer Points:
- Pray that the new will burst forth from your life - in your walk with God, in your business, in your marriage, in your ministry, etc.

- "Surprise me LORD." Make that your heartcry now.

- Open my ears LORD, that I may hear Your instructions for my next level.

- LORD, cause rivers to flow out of the dry places I'm currently in.

- Father, give me a new _________ (fill in the gap). Pray now.

- Pray in the spirit.

- Thank God for you have all that you have just received by faith.
