Pass Your Battle To God

Pass Your Battle To God

1 Kings 20:1-3 "Ben-Hadad, the king of Syria, gathered all his army, and he persuaded 32 other kings to join him with their armies and horses and chariots. They marched to Samaria city, the capital of Israel, and surrounded it, and prepared to attack it. Ben-Hadad sent messengers into the city to King Ahab, to say this to him: “This is what King Ben-Hadad says: ‘You must give to me all your silver and gold, your ◄good-looking/​most beautiful wives/​women and strongest children.’”T4T

Point to ponder on: When you are threatened by those who think they are stronger than you, report them to God who is all powerful.

Who is that person, force or power surrounding your life and threatening to take what belongs to you? They are even boasting  and making demands, setting date to overtake everything you value. They are trouble makers set to molest and bring you down but their advancement will only lead to their destruction and great loss in Jesus name. Fear not! Don't be frightened by their armor, connection and those backing them up.
Be courageous! "Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world."(1Jn.4:4kjvlite) "One who puts on his armor should not boast like one who takes it off."(2Kgs.20:11b-NIV) You will surely strip them off their armor  and they shall be disgraced. 

They have mustered their armies against you for battle. But you know what, they are preparing for the beginning of their end. If they won't change their minds but set to attack and dispossess you of what God has giving to you. "Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God. But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let them exceedingly rejoice."(Ps.68:1-3kjvlite)

What have they targeted to destroy? Every evil they have planned against your business, family, marriage, children, academics, projects, ministry, job shall become futile in Jesus name. " Jehovah will fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace."(Ex.14:14-ASV) At the end of it all, the Lord will overpower them and inflict heavy losses on your adversaries. And your song shall be:  "The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my savior; you save me from violence. I will call on the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from my enemies.... For you have girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against me have you subdued under me." (2 Sam.22:2-4,40-kjv2k)

Good morning. Enjoy His victory.

I celebrate you.

Chase It Until You Get It

MEDITATION

Chase It Until You Get It

Proverbs 8:17-21 "I love those who love me; whoever looks for me can find me. I have riches and honor to give, prosperity and success. What you get from me is better than the finest gold, better than the purest silver. I walk the way of righteousness; I follow the paths of justice, giving wealth to those who love me, filling their houses with treasures." GNB
https://dbuilderstemple.blogspot.com

Point to ponder on: The road to success and wealth is wisdom avenue, it is a sure way to honour in life.

Wisdom is wealth incubated. The secret to enduring wealth lies in divine wisdom. Wisdom reciprocates the affection you give to it and reveals itself to those who search for it. If you love wisdom you will attract it, if you hate it, you will repel it. Your love for wisdom creates a way for its discovery. Your love for it creates a burning desire for its possession. And when you find wisdom it will design for you a roadmap to success. No one befriends wisdom and lacks honour. What wisdom will do for you surpasses the gain from gold and silver: it provides you with capacity for intelligent investment, business advancement and continuous cash flow with financial literacy. Keep in mind that divine wisdom  operates in the way of righteousness and justice in daily dealings. And remember the impact of wisdom in the life of King Solomon. Are you satisfied with the level of wisdom you have right now? Why don't you make it a daily prayer request and ask for increase in the Spirit of wisdom for more exploits in life. "Tune your ears to the world of Wisdom;set your heart on a life of Understanding. That's right—if you make Insight your priority,and won't take no for an answer, Searching for it like a prospector panning for gold,like an adventurer on a treasure hunt, Believe me, before you know it Fear-of-God will be yours;you'll have come upon the Knowledge of God. And here's why: God gives out Wisdom free,is plainspoken in Knowledge and Understanding. (Proverbs 2:2-6-MSG)

Good morning. Enjoy a fabulous weekend.

I  celebrate you.

Your Longing Shall Be Satisfied

MEDITATION

Your longing shall be Satisfied

Proverbs 13:12 "Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life." NIV

Point to ponder on: The waiting time is a trying time for the heart but the day a desire is fulfilled the heart rejoices.

"When people do not receive the things that they are expecting to receive, ◄it causes them to despair/​they become very sad; but if you receive what you are desiring to get, that will be like a tree whose fruit gives you life (OR, that will cause you to be joyful)" T4T
What have you been waiting on God for? How long have you been waiting? How do you feel having to wait this far. The Lord will turn it around in Jesus name. The table will turn for your favour. Whatever intellect has failed to accomplish for you Jesus will make a way for you. Whatever business should have brought your way and has not come Jesus will make it happen. Whatever your career should bring your way and is still pending Jesus will step in. Everything not working in your ministry Jesus will intervene. Everything that has been an object of despair will vanish in Jesus name. Every heavy heart is receiving the touch of Jesus for a supernatural turn around. But you need to ask yourself a cogent question as you anticipate divine intervention. Is this thing am longing for God's will for my life? If it's not, the Lord will not give you what will hurt or destroy you. But if it's His will for your life, He will make it happen. At the appropriate time, it will happen for you and you will be filled with joy in Jesus name. Rejoice in hope.

Good morning. Do have a fruitful month ahead. Happy New Month!

I celebrate you.

Hold It Back

MEDITATION

Hold It Back

Proverbs 25:28 "Like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who lacks self control."NIV

Point to ponder on: A life without self control is a life without self defence.

Cities in the bible days were fortified with walls as  security measures. The city like Jericho was an example of such. When foreigners attacked such city, they had to besiege the city before they could penetrate into it. Now let us imagine with a vivid example of what we have in my noble country Nigeria where we share borders with neighbouring countries and people can stroll in and out without caution because only boundary line determines the border but no walls. Therefore, bandits can come at will from neighbouring countries and perpetrate evil and return back without being caught. This is a typical example of anyone without self control, such is like a city that is 100% vulnerable to attacks and danger. If the self is not put under control it will prevent our spirit from doing the will of God. Our soul is the consciousness of our body and this is the real self. It is influenced by what we see, smell, taste, touch and feel. Therefore, when the self is not under control, it is vulnerable, exposed to attacks and easily enticed to sin. Anger, pride, gossip, immorality are agents of self. However, it is now easy for us to put self under control because we have the Holy Spirit within us and  one of the nine graces of the fruit of the Holy Spirit is self control. But we can only activate this when we work in constant communion or fellowship with the Holy Spirit, such that owing to the consistent fellowship it becomes easy without any human effort to put self (activities of the flesh) under control. If we must follow God and serve Him unreservedly, we need the help of the Holy Spirit to daily put 'self' under control that God might be glorified within us.
It takes control over self to overcome all the works of the flesh mentioned in Gal.5: 19-21.Let us deepen our fellowship with the Holy Spirit and walk in the Spirit(living by the word) so that we can put to death the deeds of the flesh.

In this new month, the Lord will order your steps, help you put self under control and make you achieve success in your endeavours in Jesus name.

Good morning. Enjoy His grace.

I celebrate you.
