    Topic: POSSIBILITIES ABOUND (Part 3)!

    Memory Verse: "‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a [thundering] noise, and behold, a rattling; and the bones came together, bone to its bone" - Ezekiel 37:7 AMP‬

    Bible Text: ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭ ‭Matthew 14:28 AMP‬

    28. Peter replied to Him, “Lord, if it is [really] You, command me to come to You on the water.”

    INSPIRATION: The story in Chapter 5 of John's gospel of a man sick for 38yrs and what stood between him and his healing was stepping into the water when it was stirred. Believers must understand that except there's a stirring, certain things will remain impossible. The stirring of the Holy Spirit will suspend, bypass or break known protocols to get you! It'd overturn verdicts and expert predictions to release Heaven's mandate on you.

    When the water is stirred, you're not only enabled to plunge in, your eyes are opened to see the accuracy of pictures concerning your future. God told Abraham, "As far as your eyes can see, I've given it to you" (Gen 13: 14-15). Seeing is critical to manifesting possibilities. As long as the flock under Jacob's watch mated before the peeled woods, the possibility of birthing streaked, spotted and speckled offsprings abound because they saw (Gen. 30: 38-39). This was another protocol-breaking feat!

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    ‭‭With all your getting, get your water stirred always! It's a huge difference maker!

    PRAYER: Dear Lord, please, break every protocol for my sake to bring me into Your streams of unlimited possibilities. Stir the waters of my destiny, open my eyes to see the right pictures and my heart to conceive and birth every great vision or picture You put in my heart, in Jesus name

    Memory Verse: ‭‭"‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a [thundering] noise, and behold, a rattling; and the bones came together, bone to its bone" - Ezekiel 37:7 AMP‬

    Bible Text: ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭ ‭Matthew 14:28 AMP‬

    28. Peter replied to Him, “Lord, if it is [really] You, command me to come to You on the water.”

    INSPIRATION: Possibilities abound when faith is stirred. This stirring is activated in the place of Holy Spirit inspired prayers (Jude 20) and the hearing of undiluted word of faith (Rom. 10: 17). When faith is stirred, nothing is impossible thereafter (Mk 11: 23-24). Faith as a catalyst moves the intangibles in the spirit realm to the physical plain. The presence of faith changes the dynamics of our expectations and delivers possibilities more than we could ever imagine or ask for (Eph. 3:20).

    Engage the supernatural; pray intensely in the Holy Spirit and see the difference. See possibilities as you pray, study or meditate and dare to believe. Keep your belief alive by watering it with faith-based confessions until it delivers the results to you. Keep the images of your expectations before you and weave faith around them. Others may remain in the boat but be the Peter that walks the miracle! Walk on your water!! To him that believes, no impossibilities at all (Mk. 9: 23).

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    ‭‭Unwavering faith can make you walk on water and raise the dead. Impossibilities doesn't exist where faith reigns!

    PRAYER: Dear Lord, may my faith not fail me when it is required the most; help me to daily build on my faith, praying in the Holy Ghost. Help me to stay tuned in on this frequency of faith where possibilities abound, in Jesus name.

    Memory Verse: ‭‭"‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a [thundering] noise, and behold, a rattling; and the bones came together, bone to its bone" - Ezekiel 37:7 AMP‬

    Bible Text: ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭ ‭Matthew 14:28 AMP‬

    28. Peter replied to Him, “Lord, if it is [really] You, command me to come to You on the water.”

    INSPIRATION: There's a realm where possibilities and impossibilities abound. It follows a chain of command and the voice you yield to. Jesus commanded Peter to 'come' and he began to walk on water. The command triggered a response that defied the laws of physics and paid no attention to his limitations as a man. The sovereign summons of God's command when heard and yielded to, turns you into a theatre of possibilities.

    The command that Ezekiel heard brought back an army of dead people! Neither he nor Peter showed signs of doubt in God's command. Doubt takes your mind away from expressing faith in His command and leaves you in the realm of logical analysis. Doubt takes your eyes off the realm where possibilities abound and keeps you in the realm of speculation, where your miracle can be easily stolen or aborted. As soon as Peter took his eyes of the source of the force generating his miracle, be begun to sink.

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    ‭‭Your miracle awaits a command-triggered response. When you hear the sound of His command, do as occasion serves you!

    PRAYER: Dear Lord, circumcise my ears and give me the grace to hear and respond obediently to the command of Your Spirit. I banish the spirit of doubt, logic and fear. As I act on your command, may I witness quick miracles like Ezekiel and Peter did once they obeyed Your command, in Jesus name.

    Topic: APPEALING AROMA (Part4)!

    Memory Verse: ‭‭"‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven" - Matthew 5:16 NIV‬

    Bible Text: ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭ ‭2 Corinthians 2:15-16 NIV

    15. ‭For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.
    16. To the one we are an aroma that brings death; to the other, an aroma that brings life. And who is equal to such a task?

    INSPIRATION: After Jacob tricked Esau to get his birthright, we see a scenario play out where he also scented like Esau, and it made Isaac release the blessings on him (Gen. 27: 27). Isaac was so used to Esau's aura that he got fooled by Jacob. How many people can discern your aura and how does it make them behave towards you? Does it evoke the release of blessing, favour, gain? Aside the fact that Jacob was God's choice for this blessing, his smell triggered the blessings also.

    On the flip side of this, are people carrying very strong negative aura like a spell. Help gets withdrawn when it's most needed at very critical moments; the aura repels their favour and leaves them in dire straits every time. Repeated negative incidents fill their lives thus heightening and widening their miseries. Regardless, Jesus took care of this by blotting out every handwriting that could work against you (Col. 2: 14). This is the gospel: you've been washed by Jesus's blood and made completely free!

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    ‭‭Be conscious and curious to know the kind of aura you emit

    PRAYER: Dear Lord, please deliver me from every form of repelling aroma that drives favour and blessings from me. I come under the cleansing power of the blood of Jesus and it separates me from the effects of a negative aroma in all ramifications, in Jesus name.

    Topic: APPEALING AROMA (Part 5)!

    Memory Verse: ‭‭"‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven" - Matthew 5:16 NIV‬

    Bible Text: ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭ ‭2 Corinthians 2:15-16 NIV

    15. ‭For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.
    16. To the one we are an aroma that brings death; to the other, an aroma that brings life. And who is equal to such a task?

    INSPIRATION: As we take on the final lap in this series, I wish you could take a more critical look at these scriptures and mirror yourself in them: how far/bright does your light shine? Is it visible and attractive enough to others to make them glorify God? Light, in this context, is your aroma, your nature or character on display before others. Does it send off a pleasant scent that glorifies God and makes you likeable or it delivers the exact opposite?

    When Paul says, "For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing" (2 Cor. 2: 15), the question you should ask is, 'How?' The Contemporary English Version puts it thus, "‭In fact, God thinks of us as a perfume that brings Christ to everyone. For people who are being saved, this perfume has a sweet smell and leads them to a better life. But for people who are lost, it has a bad smell and leads them to a horrible death. No one really has what it takes to do this work" (2 Cor 2:15-16).

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    ‭‭You can either emit sweetness or offense! One leads to a better life for others, the other leads people to a horrible death.

    PRAYER: Dear Lord, I receive grace to light up my world with the right pleasing aroma that brings glory to you and salvation to others. May I not become a source of stumbling to anyone with my lifestyle, actions or inactions. I give out grace as I've received of Christ and it brings healing and salvation to others, in Jesus name.

    Memory Verse: ‭‭"‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven" - Matthew 5:16 NIV‬

    Bible Text: ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭ ‭2 Corinthians 2:15-16 NIV

    15. ‭For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.
    16. To the one we are an aroma that brings death; to the other, an aroma that brings life. And who is equal to such a task?

    INSPIRATION: Some aroma can be so tempting, sweeping you off your feet if you let down your guards. Jacob's stew had such an appealing aroma that made Esau sell off his birthright so cheaply. When you do not place premium value on principles that govern your life, you'd become as reckless as Esau, making choices that trade off your future for immediate pleasure. You shouldn't bite everything that appeals because their glistering appeal may just be a trap to lure you away by lust.

    In contemporary times, temptation comes so easily. The Internet would bring it right at your doorsteps! Your eye and ear gates become tools that heighten the appealing aroma to sin. Except you make a covenant with your eyes like Job (Job 31: 1), or like Joseph, choose not to do wickedness against God (Gen. 39: 9), there's so much appealing aroma to go round that has ruined many a great destiny. Some aroma are slippery peels you must guide against!

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    ‭‭Take heed to yourself and the things that appeal to you before they destroy you!

    PRAYER: Dear Lord, please deliver me from every form of appealing aroma that could bring about my downfall. Help me to guide my steps and choices; lead me to guard my heart, eyes and ear gates so that I do not give to subtle or brazen attempts to entice me with evil, in Jesus name.

    Topic: AROMA THAT APPEALS (Part 2)!

    Memory Verse: ‭‭"‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven" - Matthew 5:16 NIV‬

    Bible Text: ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭ ‭2 Corinthians 2:15-16 NIV

    15. ‭For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.
    16. To the one we are an aroma that brings death; to the other, an aroma that brings life. And who is equal to such a task?

    INSPIRATION: When you brew coffee, its real aroma comes out. Pressure brings out your true essence and determines what stuff you're made of. Societal culture and expectations may shape your lifestyle but the aroma you give off afterwards is uniquely rooted in who you are! Who are you when the going is good or when it is tough? What's your tenacity threshold when life exerts on you? Do you buckle or soar?

    You don't really know your true worth until you are put under intense pressure. Under pressure you perform better or worse but real pressure is meant to bring out the treasure in you! Sometimes, your aroma are your inbuilt qualities that come through unannounced. It is what people perceive and can relate to. It isn't about you trying to impress, it's a natural flow that you can't control. That's your true essence.

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    ‭‭Under pressure, you perform better or worse, but it reveals your true nature.

    PRAYER: Dear Lord, please help me to give off the kind of sweet aroma that's a replica of the life you lived and called us to. I want to be Christ-like in all I do, say or represent. Help me to exhibit grace and virtue that draws men to your saving knowledge, in Jesus name.

    16. To the one we are an aroma that brings death; to the other, an aroma that brings life. And who is equal to such a task?

    INSPIRATION: One cannot help but notice the aroma from a restaurant kitchen or bakery if you walked by, same way the scent of a good perfume gets noticed as you come in close proximity to users. Likewise, an offensive odour abhorrent to people can easily be noticed and it sends off a repellant response. What aroma do you exude and how do people perceive you: grateful, graceful, sweet, humble, nice, friendly or arrogant, prideful, disagreeable, etc.?

    Paul says, "For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing." You can't be pleasing aroma of Christ to God and distasteful to people. Good and bad cannot and should not flow from you. You can't pick and choose whom to be nice to and whom to treat with disdain for all men are equal. If people can't see and glorify God through the aroma you give off, then something is fundamentally wrong with the kind of Christianity that you practice.

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    ‭‭Odour repels, good scents attract. What's your aroma, repellant or attractive?
