Genesis 49: 1-28 Our text passage shows us Israel praying over his twelve sons and telling them what was to befall them in the years ahead of them. It's a very insightful passage we can draw many life lessons and spiritual lessons from. The power of a fathers prayer over his children, especially a godly father is very powerful. Jacob who became Israel is one of the father's of faith. He is the grandson of Abraham and the son of Isaac. Jacob was a man of great destiny. He was a man of God,  he was prophetic and he had encounters with God., great encounters of God. One of the places where we see the prophetic dimension at work the most in Jacob/Israel's life is in his fatherly/patriarchal blessing to  each of his twelve sons. Through Jacob/Israel's prayer for his sons we see the power of a father's prayer for his children. The words of Jacob/Israel during his prophetic prayers for his twelve sons show us not only what had happened in the lives of his sons up till the ...

Exodus 15:22-26 Our text passage shows us bitter water turning to sweet water. This happened through God's intervention through His prophet. God can make your life sweet. The application of the cross, the wisdom of God to our bitter situation converts that which is bitter to sweetness. The tree or branch thrown into the bitter water represents the cross of Jesus Christ and the wisdom of God. God specializes in making the bitter sweet. It was what the ministry of Jesus Christ was all about.- turning the life and destiny of people from that which is bitter to that which is sweet. Isaiah 61:1-7 We see similar experiences in other passages of the scripture where bitter scenarios as a result of unpleasant experiences were converted to sweet experiences. The blind receiving their sight is sweetness to the blind. The lame walking is sweetness to the lame. The demon possessed getting delivered is sweetness to the oppressed. Those burdened and yoke laden being set free is sweetness to their...

 Zechariah 4:6 Mountains can be levelled. Challenges can be overcome. Enemies can be defeated. However it doesn't happen in our human power or by human strength. It happens by God's Spirit! We can only go so far without the help of the Spirit of God. We can only achieve so much without the Spirit of God. We can not achieve supernatural things without God's Spirit. Men who fulfill their destinies do it by the Spirit of God. Men who don't go wrong achieve it by the Spirit of God. The ministry of the Holy Spirit is so important to us. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God with you. He is an excellent Spirit you can have a relationship with. He guides, He leads, He reminds, He communicates, He helps, He advocates, He fights and He reveals. We cannot defeat the lions of life without the Spirit of God and the might He gives. Judges 14:5-6 The Spirit of might dimension of the Holy Spirit was the secret of Samson. Judges 13:25 We cannot shift and overcome the mountains and block...

  Champions win. Champions are visible. They are visible because they have been winning. Winning is a key to visibility. If you keep winning in life's affairs, your world will begin to notice you. And you should win, God would have you win. You can be and you should be visible for the Lord. Light is visible, if it is not it is darkness. You are not called to darkness, you are called to light, we are called to be the lights of the world through Christ Jesus! Light wins, darkness loses. Darkness always bows to light. Champions are light in their jurisdiction and habitation. King David was called the light of Israel. He led the armies of his nation into battle and always came back victorious. He never lost any battle on the battlefield. From the moment that young man went into battle against Goliath and won, he was visible in the land and kept winning his battles. David was a champion, a champion of light! Goliath, the Philistine giant he defeated on the battlefield was a champion too...

Exodus 4:1-5 Our text passage shows us God asking Moses what he had in his hand. The answer is a rod, a shepherd's rod which God would use mightily. What Moses had in his hand was all God needed. God doesn't ask us to give what we do not have. It is the kingdom of darkness who inconvenience people, asking for all sorts of things people can't get or what people do not have. Anyone who inconveniences people to handover or give what is beyond them more often than not is a false prophet or false minister of the gospel. Ezekiel 34:10 There is no time you do not have something to offer the Lord. There is no time you do not have something to potentially change your fortunes through God. Your prayer, your praise, your giving, your service, your skill, your kindness to the less privileged are seed you can sow. They are things you can give. The widow who gave two mites in the temple gave the least in the eyes of men but in the sight of Jesus Christ she gave the most. Mark 12:41-44 Th...

Revelation 22:13 Our enemy does not have the final word on anything that concerns us. He shouldn't. Our Creator is the one who has the final word concerning our situation, our matter and our  circumstances. We have to be careful who we listen to. 1 John 4:1 A wrong voice can take us down a wrong path. A wrong voice can take us off our purpose. A wrong voice may sound logical, seem right but it can lead to destruction. Proverbs 14:12 There are many voices on the earth, and many voices in the world. They are all speaking different things. Some are good things being spoken and some are not. Some are misguided voices. Some are sincere voices. Some are concerned voices. We have the voice of situations and circumstances. There's the voice of experience. There's the voice of the flesh. There's the voice of our dreams. There's the voice of human beings, companies and products. Nature has a voice declaring the glory of God, glory has a voce. Psalm 19:1-4 Rocks, stones and pl...
