2). Let your giving be from your heart because God loves a cheerful giver.

3) A wise farmer sows the best out of his harvest.This guarantees a greater harvest.

4) Relax when it has to do with money. Money gravitates to where it is welcomed

Is time for us to tame money ,because bible said that money is god ,if we allow him ,he will lord over us
So tame money
Give randomly
Let it loose ,not too tight
Remember no god wants to be controlled.
Make sure that money is free with you
That's when it will keep coming.

_MONEY MASTERY_

BY:EV. MIKE FRANCEN.

There is no one in my life I have ever honored more that T.L. Osborn. He was my closest friend, confidant, and mentor. T.L. talked to me on levels of ‘real’, in the most personal settings in his living room, or mine.

T.L. talked with me about the issue of ‘money’, many times during the span of our friendship. He was well versed in the Scriptures, a staunch believer in them, a man of ‘action’ who was never satisfied with simply leaving them idle, but was a ‘doer’ of the Word. T.L. was keen in regards to the Biblical principles of ‘sowing and reaping.’

While I was with Archbishop Idahosa, in Nigeria, he shared with me a story of an encounter he had with brother Osborn early in his ministry. He told me: “Years ago T.L. came, for yet another crusade in Nigeria. Upon his arrival, T.L. said to me: ‘Before I leave I am going to give you enough money to build your dream house.’ Filled with excitement, I shared the good news with Margaret, my kids, my church members, and everyone I knew.’ Nearing the end of T.L.’s stay, he pulled me off to a private room, saying to me: ‘I told you before I left I was going to give you enough money to build your dream house. I want to make good on this vow right now.’ It was at that moment T.L. took out a $100 dollar bill and put it into my hand. He said to me: ‘Right now in your hand, you have enough money to build your dream house.’ “

Idahosa told me he was devastated, expecting a sum of vast more, than the measly $100 dollar bill that was now in his hand. T.L. was teaching the young Idahosa a vibrant principle, ‘when it is not enough to meet the need, then it is a seed!’ Benson shared with me that he saw ‘the light’, and began practicing ‘seedtime and harvest’ principles. I stayed in Idahosa’s ‘dream house’ in Benin City. It was an amazing home, brought about by the principle of seedtime and harvest, and Idahosa’s putting God’s Word to the test and reaping the harvest of obedience. His dream house came to fruition.

_As long as the earth remains, there will be seedtime and harvest._
Genesis 8:22

Too many ministers today, use Luke 6:38, as an ‘extraction’ tool, trying to pry money out of the hands of the people. Belief, practice, and faith is seemingly not at the helm of their operation, but rather manipulation.

My friends, KNOW the scriptural precedence, in regards to money. The Bible talks more about money and finances than it even speaks about faith. Money is a tool to get the job done. Study to ‘show yourself approved’, in all the Scriptures, including His ways regarding sowing and reaping.

Years ago I invited T.L. and Daisy Osborn to come and conduct a crusade in India. I told T.L. I would pay for their airfares, the crusade, accommodations, and all expenses.

I set the budget for all the aforementioned at $50,000, which at that time in my young ministry was a mountain of money. I was stretching my faith, not sure how I was going to be able to handle such a sum, at that time in my ministry, but I was determined.

As T.L. and I talked in the proceeding weeks, the budget GREW!
T.L. said, ‘Mike, let's not do a 5-day crusade together in India, lets make it 10 days.’ MORE MONEY. Then T.L. said to me, ‘Mike, lets not only do a crusade, but also a ministers conference, the following week (for 5 days), and a women’s conference the following after that (for 5 days).’ MORE MONEY. Then T.L. said to me, ‘Mike I think we should give an assortment of our books to all who attend the conferences, let's sow 100,000 books to the attendees.’ MORE MONEY!

As the stay in India grew from eight days to thirty days, as the event turned into more than just a crusade, T.L. continually said to me: ‘Mike, I want to put money into this event as well. I need to financially help towards this!’ I told T.L.: ‘NO, I will pay for ALL of it.’ I DID!

The initial $50,000 dollar budget was overwhelming to me. The cost of these events ballooned to $137,000, by the time we had completed these events!

I was determined to pay for (SOW) the entire event! I DID! The Lord supernaturally provided all the money needed, and even beyond this. More than 250,000 people were in attendance the final day. More than 5,000 attended the women’s conference and more than 7.000 were in the minister's conference. We sowed 110,000 books, as we impacted India during those thirty days.

The finances in my ministry exploded after this event! Seedtime and harvest principles work! Study the scriptures, my friends – put faith into practice and put God to the test.

While I was with Archbishop Idahosa, in Nigeria, I sat down after lunch one day and talked with Kenneth Copeland. Brother Copeland said to me: ‘Mike, this is how you are going to finance your ministry for the rest of your life – MAKE IT YOUR PRIMARY PURPOSE TO GIVE!’

*PRAYER IS A WEAPON*
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

_I choose to pray🧎🏻‍♂️🧎🏻‍♂️🧎🏻‍♂️🧎🏻‍♂_

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

_No matter how weak a man is, if he can sustain praying power, one day something must happen.._

I woke up one morning and had a vision of my mother's funeral..It looked so real..I didn't sit down and wait for it to happen before I say I saw it oh.. but when I woke up, I prayed..

*PRAYER* is a powerful mystery allocated to the saints for Dominion.
In the parable Luke 18:1Jesus shows us how prayer is a powerful Dominion system..He talks about the judge and the widow. The judge has no regards for God or men but the weak widow kept insisting for him to avenge her adversery.

For a while he didn't mind her..
So it means when you pray, give it time..God is telling you that that's how it works..
So God is saying be patient..give it time..Your staying power and consistency matters.
Show me a woman who can pray and I will show you a Deborah raising.

Afterwards, the heartless judge decided to grant the woman's request because he became weary of her.
This is a revelation telling us that our persistence can cause Satan to get weary. That a day can come through consistent prayer you can weary the devil to let you go..

PRAYER CAN CHANGE THINGS.. PRAYER WILL HELP YOU TO CHOOSE WHAT TO ALLOW HAPPEN AND WHAT NOT TO ALLOW TO HAPPEN!

PRAY!!

God will grant your request someday🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

_TO LAUGH IS TO HEAL & TO BE HEALED😃😃😃😃😃😃!!!_

*JUST LAUGH OFF😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁*

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

There’re those who haven’t laughed in a long time. They’ve almost forgotten how to laugh. They look at their lives and conclude there’s nothing to be happy about. In fact, they’d feel guilty if they caught themselves laughing. They believe laughing is for those who aren’t serious about life. Yet, their stiffness hasn’t made life any easier for them.

God wants you to know from His Word that laughter is a healer. Your expression of joy is a good starting point for healing and restoration. Sometimes, when life seems to get tough, learn to pull back and laugh. Have a merry heart and a cheerful mind.

Interestingly, you don’t have to pray to God to give you happiness or cheerfulness; it’s a function of your recreated human spirit. You make yourself joyful with the Word of God. Remember, one of the fruits of your recreated human spirit is joy (Galatians 5:22); you’ve got joy in your spirit; and laughter and cheerfulness are expressions of joy.

_Sometimes you ought to think more than you ought to pray!_ Apostle George Katuntu.

[ For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he:....Prov.23:7]

06/08/2020

_But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isa.40:31_

*What is then an EAGLE?*

_Eagles are large, powerfully built birds of prey, with heavy heads and beaks. ... Like all birds of prey, eagles have very large, hooked beaks for ripping flesh from their prey, strong, muscular legs, and powerful talons. The beak is typically heavier than that of most other birds._

_*The 7 Characteristics Of An Eagle:*_

*LEADERSHIP CLASS*

1.] Eagles Have Vision: If you ever happen to see an eagle sitting high above the tree or cliff of a stiff mountain, watch closely and see how attentive the bird is.

The body sits still and the head will be tilted side to side to observe what is happening below, around and above it. Even if its flying close by, you can observe how keen its eyes are looking for its prey. Eagles have a keen vision. Their eyes are specially designed for long distance focus and clarity. They can spot another eagle soaring from 50 miles away.

Does this characteristic ring a bell in your mind? I am sure it does. Look at great leaders of this world who have come and gone. There are many great leaders that came and went but one characteristic that is common in all is "Vision". Vision is a successful leadership characteristic

Take Abraham Lincoln for example. Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States, guided his country through the most devastating experience in its national history, the Civil War. He had a vision, to save the union and free the slaves. He is considered by many historians to have been the greatest American president.

You must have a vision that guides and leads your team towards the organizations or societal goals. The vision must be big and focused. A big, focused vision will produce big results.

2.] Eagles are fearless: An eagle will never surrender to the size or strength of its prey. It will always give the fight to win its prey or regain its territory.

Try and watch the video on how the Golden Eagle displays remarkable hunting strategy, preying on goats much larger than itself by throwing them off the cliff face.

No matter what the size of that person or what weapon they may be holding, you would attack them without thought or regard for yourself. It wouldn’t even dawn on you to be afraid because your instinct is to protect that which you love and cherish.

Successful leaders are fearless. They face problems head-on.

3]. Eagles are Tenacious: Watch an eagle when a storm comes. When other birds fly away from the storm with fear, an eagle spreads its mighty wings and uses the current to soar to greater heights. The eagle takes advantage of the very storm that lesser birds fear and head for cover.

Challenges in the life of a leader are many. These are the storm we must face as leaders to rise to greater heights. Like an eagle, a leader can only rise to greater heights if he takes up the challenges head on without running away from it. This is yet another leadership characteristic.

4.] Eagles are High Flyers: Eagles can fly up to an altitude of 10,000 feet, but they are able to swiftly land on the ground. At 10, 000 feet, you will never find another bird. If you find another bird, it has to be an eagle.

An eagle doesn't mingle around with the pigeons. _Dr Myles Munroe_ once said , *"Pigeons scavenge on the ground and grumble and complain all day long. Eagles are not. They fly and make less noise waiting for opportunities to strike their next prey or glide with the current of the storm."*

Great leaders are problem solvers. They don't complain like the pigeons do. They love to take challenges as the eagle does when the storm comes.

5.] Eagles Never Eat Dead Meat: An eagle never eats dead meat. In other words, an eagle does not scavenge. It only eats the meat from the prey it kills itself. Eagles eat raw and fresh meat What a great act of true leadership.

A true leader spends time with people who are vibrant and liberal in thinking. You have to be with people who can think, make informed decisions and take actions. These are the people who bring changes to society. They are lively and active people. Go out and look for them.

According to Tony Buzan, a proponent of the techniques of Mind Mapping and mental literacy, these type of people are called change thinkers and change makers.

There is a saying that goes like this: "People you hang around with and the books you read eventually determines the person you become."

6.] Eagles posses Vitality: Eagles are full of life and are visionary but they find time to look back at their life and re-energize themselves. This happens at about the age of

30. What happens is that when the Eagles reach the age of 30, their physical body condition deteriorates fast making it difficult for them to survive.

What is really interesting is that the eagle never gives up living, instead it retreats to a mountaintop and over a five-month period goes through a metamorphosis. It knocks off its own beak by banging it against a rock, plucks out its talons and then feathers. Each stage produces a re-growth of the removed body parts, allowing the eagle to live for another 30 - 40 years.

There are times in your life as a leader that you must look back and take stock of your life. The good and the bad experiences you have been through as a leader. Are you keeping in trend with the current knowledge trend? Do you need to improve your certain areas in your life as a leader?

Great leaders are the ones that always do "check and balance" of their personal and professional lives and make an effort to learn things every day.

7.] Eagles Nurture their younger ones . Believe this or not. Eagles are known for their aggression. They are absolutely ferocious aren't they? Anyone who doesn't have total knowledge of this great bird will say yes. What is more astonishing with this bird is their ability to nurture their young ones. Research has shown that no member of the bird family is more gentle and attentive to its young ones than the eagles.

This is how it happens. When the mother eagle sees that time has come for it to teach the eaglets to fly, she gathers an eaglet onto her back, and spreading her wings, flies high. Suddenly she swoops out from under the eaglet and allows it to fall. As it falls, it gradually learns what its wings are for until the mother catches it once again. The process is repeated. If the young is slow to learn or cowardly, she returns it to the nest and begins to tear it apart, until there is nothing left for the eaglet to cling to. Then she nudges him off the cliff.

True leaders are not bosses. They grow with their people. They strive to make individuals in the organization or society grow to their full ability. They teach and guide just like the mother eagle does. They never stop giving challenges but never-give-up empowering and directing.

*RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL.*

*LIVING ON GOD’S WORD.*

Tuesday, August 4th.

Pastor Chris

_*And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him (Luke 8:25).*_

A certain young man was deathly ill, and thought he’d die. On a certain Friday evening, he was brought to me. After explaining to me what the problems were, I said to him, “See me on Sunday.”

Later on, as he shared his testimony, he said, “When Pastor Chris said to me, ‘See me on Sunday,’ I knew I wasn’t going to die before Sunday, because I’ll have to see him.” He held on to the word to see me on Sunday. We ministered to him eventually and he was miraculously restored.

That’s how to live your life on the Word of God; you take the Word that’s come to you from God and anchor your life on it; you live by it. It also brings to mind an experience between Jesus and His disciples on a certain occasion. He had said to them, _*“...Let us go over unto the other side of the lake...”*_ (Luke 8:22). During the sail, it became so stormy that the disciples were terrified and cried to the Master saying, _*“...Master, master, we perish...”*_ (Luke 8:24).

The Master’s response to them is what we read in our theme verse. He asked them, “Where is your faith?” His question wasn’t about the wind and the storm. Rather, He was saying, “I told you we’re going to the other side, and if I said that, then we must arrive at the other side, irrespective of the boisterous and tempestuous wind; we don’t perish on the way!” He was saying, “You should have relied on my words.”

It makes no difference what’s going on around you, refuse to be agitated. Don’t be flustered by the economic or political wind around you; live your life on God’s Word. Stay your life on His word and know that until you’ve fulfilled it, nothing can stop you; nothing can destroy you. Go about God’s business, preaching the Gospel unafraid and unintimidated. The greater One lives in you. Hallelujah!

*CONFESSION*

*I’m completely yielded to the ministry of the Word, and through study and meditation, the Word mingles with my spirit, producing in me the message it carries. I respond to situations and circumstances from the standpoint of the Word. Therefore, I live victoriously every day, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.*

_WHAT'S FAITH TO YOU???_

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Faith is acting on God's Word. It will make you to do really very strange things.

Imagine how Noah's neighbours must have thought he had gotten mad when he was acting on God's Word.

First he builds a big boat on dry ground. There is no chance he could have ever pushed such a big boat to a lake. However, for many years he kept on building it with the instruction of God till he finished.

Then one day God said, "it is time to enter the boat. Collect some animals too and enter with them." And Noah obeyed.

By now his neighbours had given up on his mental status. They laughed and got tired then continued with their daily business. How could someone enter a boat while on dry ground?

Anyway, God went ahead and shut the door to the ark. The rains started. People thought it was just the season. The rains increased. One old man must have encouraged them saying "such rains come once in a while".

The people now went on higher ground. Then the floods were so much they began to lift Noah's boat. They discovered he was right but it was too late to enter the boat. Soon the floods covered all the higher ground and mountains.

Well, Noah's listening to the voice of God had saved him and all the occupants of the boat.

Beloved, you may look foolish to many when you yield to the voice of God right now but continue obeying. Continue building the ark . Continue writing your vision on plain tablets. Continue serving. Continue submitting . Continue partnering. Continue visiting the fatherless and widows in their affliction. Continue helping the poor. Faint not in the day of doing good. Continue sowing your seed in the morning, afternoon & evening and withhold not .

It is better to look foolish before man than before God.

When you receive God's wisdom and act on it, in due time He will cause all men to see the wisdom in your actions. They may say with many almost convincing arguments that you are wasting time with Jesus but relax. "...the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God." (1Corinthians 1:18, KJV)

Shalom Shalom...
