A good relationship with Christ brings prompt answers to prayer as Jesus said in John 16:24 : “ Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.” To build a strong friendship with God and get immediate answers to prayers ,you must believe and trust Him. LET US PRAY:   i) Father, grant unto me an open heart in Jesus name. ii) Create in me o Lord a humble spirit iii) I receive greater faith to believe in your word in Jesus name. iv) I pray for daily wisdom in the name of Jesus v) O Lord grant me the spirit of patience in all areas of my life in Jesus name. vi) I ask for the Spirit of humility before you O God in Jesus name. vii) I ask for guidance in life’s decisions and events in Jesus name. viii). Lord, I ask for protection from all spiritual  enemies in Jesus name. ix) I dedicate all aspects of my  life to you O God in Jesus name. x).Lord, as I climb the second ladder in the year 2023, let my jou...

   Deuteronomy 6:6-7  speaks of God's expectation for his people to know and be able to talk about His word, with proper application in their daily lives. He wants them to learn scripture diligently and discuss it during activities such as sitting at home, walking or going to bed or getting up in the morning. The beauty of Scripture is that it can be comprehended by educated or uneducated individuals alike, making even the simple wise with its instruction. When Scripture talks about the simple, it refers not only to those lacking in intelligence, but also those who lack sound judgement and are easily led astray.. Christianity is not a religion but a way of life.We must live by what we say we are. Let us pray: 1. Father, I thank you for teaching me your statutes 2.I receive the grace to keep your statutes to the end in Jesus name 3. It is well with me and my family and we shall increase mightly as we are  in obedience to your word in Jesus name 4.I receive the grace t...

 Are you discourage or overwhelmed, I am led by the spirit of the living God to let you know that Prayer is a powerful tool, that can be used to help us overcome discouragement. Here are 10 prayer points with Bible references to help in the fight against discouragement. 1.pray that you will remain encouraged in all circumstances ( Romans 8:37 ). 2. pray that your eyes will focus on Christ rather than the hardships around you ( Hebrews 12:1-2 ). 3. pray for wisdom from God to recognize when your thoughts or emotions are leading down a path of discouragement ( James 1:5) . 5. pray for strength and endurance so that you may persevere through difficult times ( Philippians 4:13 ). 5. ask for divine protection from any spiritual forces of darkness or doubt that may come against you ( 2 Thessalonians 3:3 ). 6. plead for the cleansing power of the Holy Spirit to wash away any negative feelings within your heart and mind ( Titus 3:5 ). . 7.  invoke God’s grace over yourself so th...

   Psalm 101:2-3 . " I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when will thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes.I hate the work of them that turn aside. It shall not cleaves to me". Our character is highly essential to how fast our  prayers  are being answered by God. You can fast,you can  pray  or may be eloquent in speaking, if you lack character, it is a total failure. Our attitude towards God and his work are very important .Our attitude can either fast track our miracles or deny us of our miracles. For us to be a good ambassador of Christ on earth strong character is a non- negotiable requirement. People are watching whether or not your words align with your actions. Good character is being true to the right principles even when no one is there watching.Being faithful to God in your private life is more important than public perception. It is possible for you to fake almost ...

 As a Christian, we must be very careful with how we display our knowledge of the word. There is a very tining silver line between knowledge and pride.dont be swept of your feet by elegant proclamation of the word by the craftman.who as a result of their educational background disapproved to the simplicity of the gospel.There are so many rough-  hewn language of ordinary people and the stylistically incorrect gramatical ruled several, of which are found in the book of Revelations.These should not trouble us.For they do not affect the truthfulness of what is written in the bible.A statement can be ungrammatical according to current standard of proper grammar rules but still contain the entire true.. Most of the time the greater percentage of corrupt people in the world are the elite,the educated one,the uneducated people in some rural area may sometimes be most trusted people even though their grammar are poor. James 4:6 " But he gives us more grace,that ís why scripture says ...

 We should be very careful with what God has endowed us with. Everything God allows into our lives is for his purpose. Our experience in life,the people we meet,the people we helped, those that helped us, the one that hurt us, what we possess, our knowledge and skill etc.All of these were given to us by God for a purpose. Joseph had a dream,his ability to dream was a gift from God and for a purpose.Some people who would like to prove that they are more intelligent than God would have accused Joseph for believing in his dream, forgetting that God's way is not our way. God said to Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus in a dream to carry the child Jesus and ran to Egypt from those that planned to kill him. So every dream or vision that God will ever give to a man will be confirmation of what has been written in the word of God, "the Bible". Joseph brothers hated him for his dream,thinking how could someone lower. than them in all ramifications based on human judgement rule or...

  When I decided to incorporate a daily  prayer  into my blog, I never knew God was planning to help some souls to be an over comer. I don't know what you are facing right now. Are you terrified and are full of fears all round?, God said I should tell you, do not be afraid any longer? I am your shield and your great reward. You will be fruitful and prosper on earth.  Genesis 15:1-2. Abraham, had lost hope of ever bearing a child as told him by God, He was a bit depressed hoping it is his maid that would inherit his wealth. The word of God came to him and said, if he could count the numbers of stars in the sky.  This is impossible, God said his children will be uncountable on earth, this was when Abraham had no clue on how this would be, looking at his own physical situation. One thing that we must know and embrace was that despite all negative reports around Abraham, he believed the word of God and at the end it comes to the past. Believe the word of God today, ...

 Do you know, the principle of God in answering prayer has not changed? Before God will grant you your request, he will first illuminate you with his light, then all other things will follow. Just as he did at the beginning when he created the earth. Genesis 1:1. You must know this light and how he operates, only then can your prayer be effective. John 1:1 says, " in the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God ”.  Verse 9 of the same John says," then spake Jesus again unto them, saying I am the light of the word, he that follow me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have light of life”. Devil always bring doubt, and it is happening in your head, you start thinking, there is this voice saying: it will not happen, you are not worthy, you are a loser, you are not born for this, nobody has ever achieved to that level in your family, and so on. When you know the position of Jesus Christ, and you put your trust in him. Your life will be full of...

 Do you know that Christianity is all about words? That is the creative power of God. And God wants to use you with your mouth., speak good words to people and to your life and situation, let your words bring hope in every hopeless situation, your words will bring change. That is, if you speak them from the heart of God. If you speak the words like Jesus did. That is why the devil wants you to shut your mouth. He tries that in different ways. The enemy of God the father, the enemy of the word, will try to do everything to stop you from speaking. That is by lies, by wrong thoughts, by difficulties to life, sorrow, but if you want your victory to be permanent, you must keep on speaking the word of life which is the word of God. For a building to be solid and stand in the midst of any natural disasters, the foundation must be firmly laid, it must be solid. This is one of the main reason why God before giving man instructions and direction spoke light into existence first. He created, ...

  Genesis 1:2-3. It was written that in the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.  And God said let there be light and there wad light. Let us meditate upon this word and offer our prayer accordingly. Before the the earth were made, God is already there, the beginning of the earth was for the Spirit of God to firstly moved upon the darkness that covered the earth. The first thing God called to existence is light and until eternity darkness cannot comprehend it.  This Monday of a new week, we don't know all that is in this week for us. We can say it is still total darkness to our natural senses. By faith, we know that God will go ahead of us and perfect the week for us for his namesake. He will command his light to shine on our path, and we will not walk in darkness throughout this week and the year 2023. We are going to...

 Let us read Luke 24:1-6 and pray according to his word. On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, Jesus disciples found out that the stone that covered the sepulchre has been rolled away. Jesus was no longer in the grave. When you believe in Jesus Christ and his word, the unusual happening will be seeing in your life. The same power that brought Jesus out of the grave, the same power, is forever alive and is still working as the day of the old. You only need to believe and walk in his way, and it will work wonders also in your life. Today, is the first day of another new week, let us make our request known unto God as we pray . PRAYER 1. My God and my father, I thank you because your power change not, you are the same yesterday, today and forever. 2. Father,what you did in the life of Lazarus and your son Jesus Christ, do it in my life now in Jesus name. 3.All stones blocking your glory in my life, be roll away now in Jesus name. 4. Jehovah, the great shaker, let y...

 Today is another day of prayer .Every one wish is to be successful and need prayer to accomplish it. There are success and there are good success. Some people believed that to be blessed is all about material possessions, money, cars, jets, houses etc. hello, that is not all that is about being blessed, one can have success without a good success. Do you know a devil also gives blessings, Matthew 4:8 , devil took Jesus to an exceeding high mountain and show him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them, and said he was ready to give all to Jesus on one condition that he, Jesus, would fall down and worship him. There are some today moving around with great affluence, and you envy them, unknown to you that they are devil prey because all their worship is to the devil their master. One thing I discovered among them is that they put on a smiling face for people to assume they're happy. In fact, they are wallowing in untold pains and discomfort...

  Many Christians do no longer understand the effective way of praying to receive answer because the atmosphere has been bombarded with prayers from Satan ordained men and women of God. Those who knows and suppose to lead the people of God in the right way has suddenly joined the bandwagon in order for their followers not to abandon them and some were usually criticizing every doctrine because of their educational background without teaching what is the right way, they gradually fall to the trap set for them by Satan, because it is written in ( Revelations 12:10 ) “ And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, now is come salvation and strength and the power of his Christ, for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night” they keep on Criticizing without teaching the right way that is a hypocrite, In the area I come from in Nigeria, it is said if you want to take something from a child, you will give him another thing in replacement...

 DO WHAT IS APPROVED NOT WHAT IS POPULAR . Majority of people nowadays has been swept off of their conviction of a righteous living because of trend that has become popular . They are not worried as to if it is the approved standard.    Our character and future are more important to God than every other things.We are a chosen generation,we are not to be committed to a relationship that God did not approved or put you in,marriage,friendship,politics,business etc.it will delay your destiny or totally destroy your future. God warned the people of Israel in Deut.8:6-14 not to go after the tradition of the people of the land which God their father has given unto them,God knew that when they've become so prosperous,their heart will be lifted as if it is their wisdom and strength that gotten them the wealth. This word of command from God is still so much relevant to us today in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation,even now when it is no longer popular to live by t...

 I was asleep on my bed one faithful day and suddenly I had an out of body experience where my body laid looking lifeless on the bed, as I took another look at my body it seemed so real and immediately I felt myself move like a flash of light through the wall outside my compound and then I began ascending at a very fast speed up to the sky. I penetrated through the clouds without any limitations and I was going until I was placed on a mysterious road. I was cautious about stepping on this road because it seemed to be paved with different colourful stones. I cannot give names to those stones anymore; all I know is they were shinning almost like glass. My fear was that the road would break like a glass. Suddenly, I heard a voice saying to me ‘don’t be afraid, walk freely on it’. Immediately, boldness came upon me, and I started walking forward. On both sides of this road were trees and flowers that were almost of the same height and well-arranged, I have never seen anything quite l...
