13 Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.
14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

1 Usava neshungu nokuda kwavanoita zvakaipa, Usagodora vanoita zvisina kururama.
2 Nokuti vachakurumidza kudzurwa souswa, Vachaoma semuriwo mutema.
3 Vimba naJehovha, uite zvakanaka; Gara panyika, ushingairire kutendeka.
4 Farikana kwazvo kuna Jehovha; Iye agokupa zvinodikanwa nomoyo wako.
5 Isa nzira yako kuna Jehovha; Vimbawo naye, iye achazviita.

Mthw 7vs11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

1 Have pity on me, O God, in your mercy; out of a full heart, take away my sin.
2 Let all my wrongdoing be washed away, and make me clean from evil.
3 For I am conscious of my error; my sin is ever before me.
4 Against you, you only, have I done wrong, working that which is evil in your eyes; so that your words may be seen to be right, and you may be clear when you are judging.
5 Truly, I was formed in evil, and in sin did my mother give me birth.
6 Your desire is for what is true in the inner parts: in the secrets of my soul you will give me knowledge of wisdom.
7 Make me free from sin with hyssop: let me be washed whiter than snow.
8 Make me full of joy and rapture; so that the bones which have been broken may be glad.
9 Let your face be turned from my wrongdoing, and take away all my sins.
10 Make a clean heart in me, O God; give me a right spirit again.
11 Do not put me away from before you, or take your holy spirit from me.
12 Give me back the joy of your salvation; let a free spirit be my support.
13 Then will I make your ways clear to wrongdoers; and sinners will be turned to you.
14 Be my saviour from violent death, O God, the God of my salvation; and my tongue will give praise to your righteousness.
15 O Lord, let my lips be open, so that my mouth may make clear your praise.

*Raising Champions equipped with the Truth in Christ*

*Romans 3:3*
*"What if some did not have faith? Will their lack of faith nullify God's faithfulness?"*

You will watch God blessing others and you will witness God working miracles to others because you don't have faith. Your lack of faith will not stop God from blessing others. God remains faithful and God remains true. God never changes and His Word never changes.

Noah had faith and God saved Noah and his family. The rest of the people were destroyed by the flood. God did not stop bringing the flood because others had no faith. God's Word never changes and His promises are true.

God wanted to save Lot's wife from the fire which was going to come down from heaven to destroy the people. However, Lot's wife had no faith in God. She looked back and she became a pillar of salt. Lot and his daughters did not look back and they were saved. Yes, your lack of faith does not affect God's faithfulness.

Jesus came on earth and he healed many sick people. Jesus healed the mute, the crippled, the blind and also the deaf. Others had no faith in Jesus and they just watched Jesus performing miracles to others.

Don't let anyone discourage you from what you are expecting. Don't let anyone disappoint you from what you are hoping for. Have faith in God. I encourage you to have faith in God and He will make it happen because our God remains faithful.

*•THE LORD WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!*

*Day 14*

*Psalms 121:4*
*"Indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep."*

People have time to sleep especially during the night but God does not sleep. We are in inactive when we sleep. We are not active when we sleep. So, God is always active because God does not sleep. God is always working out something for you and He is watching us.

One day, Jesus healed a woman who was crippled for 18 years. The woman could not bent over and she could not straighten up at all. Jesus saw her and healed her on that Sabbath day. The Pharisees were not happy because they expected Jesus to stop working miracles since it was a Sabbath day. Then did not know that our God does not rest and He is always working out something for us.

Remember Peter was put in prison and and God performed a miracle to Peter. The miracle happened during the night because our God also works during the night. The angel of God came and helped Peter to escape from the prison. Don't be afraid of anything during the night because God does not sleep and He is always watching you.

*Exodus 13:21*
*"By day the LORD went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or night."*

Remember God was the pillar of cloud by day and pillar of fire by night. God was watching the Israelites. God did not stop protecting the Israelites because it was evening. God is watching you and God is working out something for you. God is preparing the best for you. The Lord will make it because God never stops working miracles for you. Hallelujah!

*SPIRITUAL GIFTS*

*1 Corinthians 12:1*
*"Now about spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant."*

Paul starts by encouraging every believer of Christ to know his or her gift. Spiritual gifts are gifts of the Holy Spirit. We must not live in ignorance about our spiritual gifts but we must know our gifts. Every child of God has a spiritual gift. Don't say you don't have a spiritual gift but its because you don't know your spiritual gift.

Why did God give us spiritual gifts? God gave us spiritual gifts so that we encourage each other and build each other up in Christ. We are one in Christ. We are parts of the body of Christ. Your spiritual gift is needed. We need each other in Christ. Don't think that you are better than others. Be humble and don't think of yourself more highly than others. Be humble.

*Romans 12:3*
*"But I say to every one of you, through the grace given to me, not to have an over-high opinion of himself, but to have wise thoughts, as God has given to every one a measure of faith."*

The above verse reminds us to be humble because we were given spiritual gifts by grace. You have spiritual gifts not because you are too prayerful or you are Holier than others. Spiritual gifts are given to us *by grace and by according to our faith.* This is supported by Romans 12 verse 6.

*Romans 12:6*
*"We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith."*

In the next creed I will list down the different kinds of spiritual gifts which includes helping and giving just to mention a few. I will explain the difference between spiritual gifts and spiritual fruits. Spiritual fruits are the fruits of the Holy Spirit. For example love, kindness and patience. And I will explain how one can discover his or her spiritual

*•THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS !!!*

*Day 28*

*Jeremiah 23:23*
*"Am I only a God nearby," declares the LORD, "and not a God far away?"*

God is nearby and God is also far away from us. This means that God is *omnipresent.* Omnipresent means that God is everywhere. *Nearby God* means God is close to us and he is with us. *Far away* means God is in heaven and he sees us even if he is far away from us.

The story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego shows us that God is nearby. The three were put into the fire. King Nebuchadnezzar went to check on Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. The King saw 4 men walking in the fire and they did not catch any fire. The presence of the fourth man shows us that it was the presence of God. Therefore, why do you fear if God is near you?

In Acts 7, people were throwing stones to Stephen and Stephen saw heaven being opened and he saw the son of man standing at the right hand of the Father. Yes, God is in heaven but he is not only a God far away from us. God is also near you. Far away also means that God sees us from afar and he knows more than us because he sees from afar.

*Acts 7:56*
*"Look," he said, "I see heaven open and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God."*

This simply means that God is omnipresent. God is everywhere. God fills the earth. Do not worry and do not be troubled. God is with you always. He is watching you and he will deliver you.

*Raising Champions equipped with the Truth in Christ.*

*Genesis 11:8*
*"So the LORD scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the tower."*

*Nehemiah 6:15*
*"So the wall was completed on the twenty-fifth of Elul, in fifty-two days."*

Are you building a tower or you are building a wall? According to the book of Genesis, people tried to build a tower which reaches heaven but they failed. God confused their language and everyone went home because they could not understand each other.

According to the book of Nehemiah, people began to rebuild a wall and they did not fail. They were successful because God helped them. They completed the wall because God was in it. You will never fail when you operate under God's will.

Are you building a tower or you are building a wall in your relationship? Are you building a tower or you are building a wall with your friends? Which structure are you building? Are you putting God first so that He gives you success. Don't build a tower. Build a wall and God will give you success. Hallelujah!

*14 October 2021*

*Raising Champions equipped with the Truth in Christ.*

*Philippians 4 verses 6 and 7*
*"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.*
*"And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."*

Paul starts by encouraging us not to be anxious about anything. To be *anxious* is to worry or to be stressed. Paul encouraged Christians not to worry about life but to present their requests to God. To present your requests to God is to tell God what you want and what you need.

You don't tell God your problems through people. You don't tell God your problems by sharing your problems to everyone. Paul instructed us to tell God through *prayer.* We talk or communicate with God through prayer. God wants you to invite Him in every area of your life.

Paul instructed Christians to end a prayer with *Thanksgiving.* Giving thanks to God is an act of faith. Thanksgiving is believing that God has already done what you have asked even if you cannot see it physically.

Finally, the peace of God which surpasses all understanding must guard your heart after you pray. This means that you will find peace after praying. A prayer that brings peace is an answered prayer even if you cannot see with your physical eyes that something has changed. That is why it is called Peace above all understanding or peace that surpasses all understanding.

The answer of your prayer does not depend on your length of prayer or the time you take to pray. Whether a short prayer or a long prayer, you must find peace after praying. Having peace is having faith. No peace means having fear. Let us make our requests known to God through prayer and Thanksgiving. And God's peace which is above all understanding will guard our hearts.

*•GREATER IS HE WHO IS IN ME !!!*

*Day 9*

*Acts 28:5*
*"But Paul shook the snake off into the fire and suffered no I'll effects."*

Paul was warming himself and a viper came out of fire and fastened itself on Paul's hand. A viper is a poisonous snake which can make you swell up or die if it bites you. However, Paul did not die.

Paul was not afraid and he did not call for help from the people. Yes, we are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a people belonging to God, greater is the one who is in us than the one who is in the world. Nothing will harm us and nothing will destroy us.

This confirms what was written in the book of Mark, that believers of Christ will pick up snakes with their hands and they will not get hurt.

*Mark 16:18*
*"They will pick up snakes with their hands, and when they drink poison it will not hurt them..."*

The devil will try by all means to destroy us but we are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ. You can go through challenges but fear not, God is with you.
