Be Strong!

Ephesians 6:10 We need strength to survive in this world, which means we have to be strong! God wants us to be strong in Him. This means we should be confident in God, trusting always in Him irrespective of what things look like around us. 1 Chronicles 16:11 To be strong is to be like Abraham. Abraham was a man who hoped against hope when there was no physical reason to hope. Romans 4:18 That is strength! This is an example of being strong. Being consistent in prayer, praying in season and out of is a form of strength. Ephesians 6:18 You need to be strong to prevail against the enemy and what the world will throw at you. The major type of strength you will require is spiritual strength. Ephesians 3:16 The Apostle Paul talks about strength in our inner man. Strength in the inner man is strength that is spiritual. It is God given spiritual strength. It is spiritual strength that's been built up as a result of spiritual growth. Many things are similar about the physical and spiritual ...

Prayer, Knowledge & The Jezebel Spirit.

Revelation 2:20 1 King 19:2 Proverbs 18:15 Prayer is necessary to to know how to overcome spirits that are not of God. Ephesians 6:12,18 Knowledge  is necessary to know how to pray against fallen angels and evil spirits, there is always a knowledge we need to know and have. Matthew 22:29 The Jezebel spirit is one of the evil spirits sons of God will have to confront in this latter times. 1 Timothy 4:1 The term 'Jezebel spirit' is a way of referring to the negative, sinister, manipulative and stubborn spirit that was at work in King Ahab's wife. The spirit of Jezebel is a manipulative, controlling, back biting, back stabbing, exaggerating and lying spirit that will use anything to control, have its way and gain the advantage. This spirit is still around in our day. This spirit is a spirit God frowns at so every true child of God should frown at it to. The Jezebel spirit is a hypocritical, religious, and leadership spirit. It targets spiritual and political leade...

Be Bold.

Proverbs 28:1 The Bible is no lie. If the Bible tells us we, the people of God, the righteous are as bold as a lion, then boldness should be one of the trade marks of a believer. We should live boldly and speak boldly. Ephesians 6:19 True Christians have every reason to be bold in life. For these reasons and much more you should be bold : We have not been given a spirit of timidity, fear or weakness. 2 Timothy 1:7 We have a Lord and savior who loves us and can do everything and anything good for our benefit. We have the life of God within us, it is the God kind of life (Zoe) which makes us bold like our creator. We have the Holy Spirit who is a Spirit of power, strength and courage. Acts 4:29 We have God living within us. We have the angels of God protecting us and ministering for us. Hebrews 1:14 Psalm 91:11,12 We have Jesus interceeding for us. Romans 8:34 We have the blood of Jesus Christ which gives us access to God and which speaks for us. Hebrews 12:24 Life wil...

The Light Of Jesus Christ Is Our Guide in 2017.

Light is the natural form of energy (power) that makes things visible. Light is a source of illumination or brightening. There are different sources of light - spiritual, physical (man made) and metaphysical (abstract) eg. knowledge, understanding, truth etc. Jesus is the Light. The Word of God is Jesus which is the Light. Psalm 119:105 John 8:12 John 1:4,5 John 1:8 2 Corinthians 4:6 The gospel light gives us the knowledge of the glory of God. It enlightens our mind. It converts the soul. It rejoices our heart. Psalm 27:1 Jesus (our Light) is our salvation. He is our strength of life and our confidence. Ephesians 5:8 Since we are born again, we are now light in the Lord, we should therefore function as children of light in this dark world. Philippians 2:15 Acts 9:3 - It was the light of Jesus that shone around Saul, he became converted. 1 John 1:7 - Jesus is our eternal life the eternal Son of God. The Blood of Jesus Christ. The eternal life (the Son Of God) put...

The Glory Within.

Matthew 17:1,2 There is a glory within the sons and daughters of God. The Hebrew word for glory is 'Chabod' which means full weight. So the glory of God carries the full weight of God's blessings, favor, abundance and light. On the mount of transfiguration, only three out of the twelve disciples of Jesus Christ saw His glory. Three out of twelve is a small number. This suggests to me that very few people, even among God's children experience and know the glory of God. When Jesus was transfigured on the mountain, the three disciples saw the light aspect of Jesus's glory. The glory within is a great glory! It is great because it is God's Kingdom within you. Luke 17:21 It is great because it is God's Spirit and presence within you. 1 Corinthians 3:16 The glory within you is great, it is great because it is Jesus within you. Colossians 1:27 The glroy within you is great because it is the heavenly Father within you. John 14:23 The glory within yo...

See More, Have More.

Genesis 13:15 God had a great inheritance for Abraham but Abraham had to see it first. God has more for you than what you have right now. In God there is always more. 2 Kings 6:16 There is more of His anointing, His power, His grace, His faith, His strength,, His dreams and revelations available to His children. In 2017, there is more for you in God so don't settle for less. You also have a responsibility to  to do certain things to receive your 'more' from the Lord. John 2:5 One of the things we need to know and do to receive our 'more' from the Lord is to  see better . Our ability to see better goes a long way. Sight matters. What you don't see, you cannot benefit from. By sight I am not referring purely to physical sight but our vision, our imagination and the eyes of our understanding. Ephesians 1:18 What we see is what we get. You need to see more to get more. What you cannot see you may never have. As God had more for Abraham, He has more for you. God had ...

Prayer: A Key to Overcoming Wickedness.

1 John 5:19 There is no denying it, wickedness exists. The Bible shows us wicked spirits are real and wicked human beings are on earth. It is Satan who puts a wicked nature in people. There are wicked people who have sold out deliberately to the devil. We have wicked people who don't like God's anointed or anything that has to do with the move or things of God. Psalm 2:1-4 The chief architect of wickedness is Satan. Ephesians 6:16 Satan has a team of wicked spirits which are demons and fallen angels who work with him as a team. Ephesians 6:12 They work in unity to achieve Satan's mandate of stealing, killing and destroying. John 10:10 In today's world the effects of Satan and his team can be seen all around us. Voodoo, Satan worship, false religion, deceptive teachings, family hatred, uncontrolled anger, evil schemes, false prophets and teachers, dream attacks, nightmares are all works of the enemy. Despite the wickedness in this world and Satan's control, God makes...

Psalm 104:1 The Spirit of God gives joy and glory. Strength comes by the Word. The Spirit of God and the Word of God work together to create God glorifying results and outcomes. In 2017, God wants joy for you. In 2017, God wants glory for you. This means He wants you to shine! In 2017, God wants you strong and operating in divine strength. 2017 is our year of JOY & GLORY. 1 Peter 1:8 Strength is a type of glory. Proverbs 20:29 - The strength of young men is their glory. God renews our youth, even if we are not young. When God renews your youth, strength comes to you. Strength, Joy and Glory are all connected. The joy of the Lord is our strength. Nehemiah 8:10 Joyful people are strong people. God's joy in us ignites our strength! Strength is needed to perform exploits and run the race before us. Daniel 11:32 Joy and strength leads to glory. Joy brings strength, strength leads to exploits, exploits bring glory. The anointing of the Lord brings joy. Psalm...
