    Topic: PRAYER DYNAMICS (Part 2)!

    Memory Verse: "...The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results" - James 5:16 NLT

    Bible Text: Isaiah 43:26 KJV

    26. Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.

    INSPIRATION: When we pray, we often draw references from Psalm 24:7-10 as we declare, "Lift up your heads o ye gates, and be lifted ye everlasting doors that the King of glory may come in." Powerful verse, especially, as it relates to our Lord being referred to as the King of glory. Yet, we fail to realise that as He is, so are we in this world (1 John 4: 17). Thus, Revelation 1: 6 says, "He has made us Kings and priests ..." In other words, since you're king as He is, you're actually commanding Gates to open up for you to step in! Hallelujah!!

    This is so profound! Prayer opens you up to dimensions and realms that only gods can operate in. And you're gods (Ps. 82: 6; John 10:35)! Gods are supernatural beings with unlimited access. Prayer helps you walk in the consciousness that you're a god and a king with supernatural abilities that gates cannot limit! Prayer transports you into the spiritual realm where destinies are determined, decisions are made and control of the physical plain are ordered. Prayer is a spiritual force, and not just mere muttering of words. The more reason you're encouraged to pray in the Spirit.

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    Prayer helps you realise your true identity in God, and gives you access into realms where operating on the mandate of your real identity in Christ opens you up to unlimited possibilities. Therefore pray!

    PRAYER: O Lord, whenever I pray, help me to ascend into the realm of unlimited access, where gates open up of their own accord. Teach me the spiritual dynamics of praying in the Spirit to obtain all that is stored up for me, in Jesus name.

    Topic: DYNAMICS OF EFFECTIVE PRAYER!

    Memory Verse: "...The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results" - James 5:16 NLT

    Bible Text: Isaiah 43:26 KJV

    26. Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.

    INSPIRATION: Never in the history of the church has the concept of prayer become so misunderstood and misapplied as it is in this generation. What is prayer, it is the act of making supplication before God; it is talking to God and making our request known to Him (Phi. 4:6). Unfortunately, many would rather wish or complain than pray! Prayer is an active engagement of Supernatural's intervention in the natural realm; it is you granting God the express permission to make inroads into your affairs.

    Prayer is putting God in remembrance (Isa. 43: 26 KJV) of what He has said, and the promises He has made concerning you. Does it mean God is forgetful? Never! It is rather tying your request to His word since He does nothing outside His word. Prayer is effective when you speak back His word to Him in faith. It is not effective because it is long, short or emotional, but weighed in the quality of His Word you mix in faith as you pray. To pray is to argue your case before God like a lawyer does before a judge. What earns you a justification is how you back up your point with the Word.

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    Prayer is dynamically most effective when you, "Produce your cause, saith the LORD; bring forth your strong reasons, saith the King of Jacob" (Isa 41:21 KJV). If your prayer fails to meet this requirement, you may not have actually prayed.

    PRAYER: O Lord, please teach me how to pray effectual fervent prayers. Help me to develop prayer stamina, to apply Your word and faith in order to be effective, in Jesus name.

    God's Progressive Revelation To Man (Part 3)!

    Topic: GOD'S PROGRESSIVE REVELATION TO MAN (Part 3)!

    Memory Verse: "He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?" - Matthew 16:15 KJV

    Bible Text: Matthew 16:13 KJV

    13. When Jesus came into the coasts of Cæsarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

    INSPIRATION: Most often than not, God's names as we know them today and as we pointed out yesterday, come from personal encounters, and sealed with covenant. Those covenants were cut and enforced through the shedding of blood. In other words, an animal had to die to ractify the covenant. Any encounter that does not 'kill' something on your inside should be subjected to thorough scrutiny. Real encounters are not defined by the feeling of goosebumps but by revelational insight into whom Jesus is, because, "He must increase, but you must decrease" (John 3: 30).

    Real encounters bring you down on your knees at the feet of the Cross, where you're lost in worship of the Splendor of our King, Master and Saviour. It births a revelation that proclaims the true identity of Christ. No wonder Peter could boldly say, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living God," in response to Jesus's question, "But whom say ye that I am?" (Matt16:15). Notice how Jesus moved from a general to a personal, direct question: it shows you can't overlook personal revelation - you get God's seal of approval like Peter, "Upon this rock I will build..."

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    Peter got heaven's endorsement, "Upon this rock I will build...," after he boldly said his convictions about whom Jesus is. Upon what encounter, confessions or conviction, is God going to build in your life?

    PRAYER: O Lord, cause me to experience encounters with You that would kill my flesh and make my spirit come more alive in You. Please take me on a journey of revelational encounters, where I will know You for myself, in Jesus name.

    Topic: GOD'S PROGRESSIVE REVELATION TO MAN (Part 2)!

    Memory Verse: "He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?" - Matthew 16:15 KJV

    Bible Text: Matthew 16:13 KJV

    13. When Jesus came into the coasts of Cæsarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

    INSPIRATION: God's revelation to man is progressive and dynamic, as it is personal. As such, no one can claim to have grasped all there is in God and about Him. It is important to note that personal encounters are birthing places for God's revelation. Encounters are triggered off by a passionate hunger. Until you get that revelation, you cannot in good fate answer Jesus's question, "...But whom say ye that I am?" - (Matt. 16:15). What aspect of God has He revealed to you that helps shape your understanding of Him?

    Some names of God we read in the bible such as Jehovah Jireh (Provider), El Roi (The God who sees me); El Shaddai (Multi-breasted One); Shammah (God is here) etc, were not names God introduced Himself by. These names were coined from the personal experiences or encounters of individuals. Today, we use them to relate to God in more meaningful ways than ever. But has God's revelation exhausted? Never! People still have encounters and destiny-defining experiences that birth new names of God. Can you passionately desire an experience that would cut out a special name of God for you?

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    Jesus asked, "But whom say ye that I am?" Reflect on this for a moment. Shouldn't your own revelational response to this question force you into a personal retreat in search of God until His light burns in your spirit? Yes! It should!!

    PRAYER: O Lord, set my heart on fire for You. Make my spirit receive the true light of whom You are. Teach me to know You more; bring me to the place of encounters where I can be touched with Your coal of fire like Isaiah, so I can see You clearly, in Jesus name.

    Topic: GOD'S PROGRESSIVE REVELATION TO MAN!

    Memory Verse: "He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?" - Matthew 16:15 KJV

    Bible Text: Matthew 16:13 KJV

    13. When Jesus came into the coasts of Cæsarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

    INSPIRATION: Our God is known for processes, timing and revelation. He reveals a part of Himself to us per time, thereby, making it foolhardy for anyone to claim to have known all there is about God. As mysterious as this is, each person's understanding of God is shaped, not necessarily by the side of Him that is revealed but by the light that shines in our heart at the point of revelation. Hence, two people can gaze on an aspect of God at the same time, but each one would come out with a different revelation.

    Knowing this about himself, He introduces Himself to Moses as, "I AM WHO I AM and WHAT I AM, and I WILL BE WHAT I WILL BE; ..." (Exo. 3:14 AMPC). In other words, you're as limited in your knowledge of Me as the part of Me that I reveal to you. It makes absolute sense then when He shows Moses another side or definition of Himself in Exodus 3:6, "I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as God Almighty [El-Shaddai], but by My name the Lord [Yahweh–the redemptive name of God] I did not make Myself known to them [in acts and great miracles]. [Gen. 17:1.]" This should drive you to seek more of God.

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    God is progressively revelatory. Everyone who searches for God, concludes like Paul, "Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unfathomable (inscrutable, unsearchable) are His judgments (His decisions)! And how untraceable (mysterious, undiscoverable) are His ways (His methods, His paths)!" (Romans 11:33 AMPC)

    PRAYER: O Lord, may I be sensitive to Your revelation and discerning enough to know what You reveal per time. Teach me to walk in the fullness of this knowledge each passing day, in Jesus name.

    Topic: MIRACULOUS TURNAROUNDS_ UNLOCKING TOTAL HEALTH ( Part 3)!

    Memory Verse: "When the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion, We were like those who dream" - Psalms 126:1 NKJV

    Bible Text: Jeremiah 30:17 MSG

    17. As for you, I’ll come with healing, curing the incurable, because they all gave up on you and dismissed you as hopeless— that good-for-nothing Zion.

    INSPIRATION: God still does miracles. He does wonders without numbers (Job 9:10). A few ways He wants to show you His wondrous acts are summarised in Jeremiah 30:17. I will restore health to you, and cure the incurable. In this regard, He'll restore health in the following areas: (i). Spiritual health; (ii). Physical health; (iii). Relationship health, and (iv). Financial health. His reason is, to shame those who despised you, and to compensate for the things you suffered in their hands. Why these four areas? I'm glad you asked.

    Spiritual health, because the spirit controls the physical. We're spiritual people having a physical experience and God wants our connection to His Spirit to be cordial. Also, you need to be physically healthy to engage in life's ventures. Health, is wealth. It takes only a healthy person to pursue his dreams to its fullest.

    Whilst it is not bad to focus our energies in pursuit of financial fortunes, we must realise a financially healthy person who lacks spiritual and physical capacities may fail in life. Build healthy relationships, connect with your kind. Be a people-person, learn to leverage the gifts of men to move forward. Men are bridges across fields.

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    When God says, I will restore health to you (Jere. 30:17), He meant health in all its forms. The responsibility is on you to believe, align in faith and keep confessing His word back to Him until you see it manifests.

    PRAYER: O Lord, restore my health in its entirety according to Your promise. Make me to be whole in deed, that I might run my cause in perfect wellness, in Jesus name.

    Topic: MIRACULOUS TURNAROUND ( Part 2)!

    Memory Verse: "When the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion, We were like those who dream" - Psalms 126:1 NKJV

    Bible Text: Zephaniah 3:20 NKJV

    20. At that time I will bring you back, even at the time I gather you; for I will give you fame and praise among all the peoples of the earth, when I return your captives before your eyes,” says the Lord.

    INSPIRATION: Divine turnarounds are miracles that surpass our expectations, and leave us in a dreamland (Ps. 126:1)! God has a fixed time for your affliction to end. At the appointed time, He will bring you back (Zeph. 3:20). What this implies is, He'd restore you. Restoration, in simple terms is, bringing you back to the state you were before things went wrong. Even so, there's another dimension to restoration, which takes you beyond your initial status before your fall to ensuring you're paid in arrears all you were due but denied while under the bondage of affliction. Hallelujah!

    A lot of us are so familiar with Joel 2: 25, "And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you." Yet only a few pay attention to the next verse, which explains the reason for the restoration: "And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed" (Joel 2:26 KJV). The turnaround is to satisfy you so you can praise God. While at it, He ensures your shame is permanently removed. Glory to God!

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    God intends for your turnaround to be a tool that evokes genuine praise to His name. God is not only fearful in praise, He's jealous for the lack of adequate praise on our part.

    PRAYER: O Lord, please give me the miracle of a total restoration in every area of my life where I had incured a loss; satisfy me early and show me Your salvation so that I can offer you worthy praise that is devoid of shame, in Jesus name.

    Memory Verse: "When the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion, We were like those who dream" - Psalms 126:1 NKJV

    Bible Text: Zephaniah 3:20 NKJV

    20. At that time I will bring you back, even at the time I gather you; for I will give you fame and praise among all the peoples of the earth, when I return your captives before your eyes,” says the Lord.

    INSPIRATION: Sometimes, we may stay so long in a bad situation that it almost becomes normal. Your senses and faculties start to adjust to the new reality and condition you to accept what you should deal with and change. When life beats you to blend into a reality that isn't yours or meant to be, survival mode is activated just so you could get by. This is the reality of many today, with no hope in view for a possible change. Despair and resignation to fate has slept off every shade of optimism left in them.

    Make no mistakes about it, it is a terrible thing to be in a state of gloom, especially, when you expect to bloom! In spite of this, God assures us of a turnaround. He says, "I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him" (Ezek. 21:27 KJV). God is about to turn your captivity in such a dramatic way! He will bring you back to a state of fame and praise (Zaph. 3:20), even though this may look like an unrealistic dream (Ps. 126:1). Get ready to be wowed!

    TODAY'S TAKE HOME:

    There are two sentences in scriptures you should familiarise yourself with. They are: "And it shall come to pass that..." (promise made), and, "It came to pass as the Lord had spoken" (promise fulfilled). These will be evident in your life this season.

    PRAYER: O Lord, please cause me to experience positive miraculous turnaround in every aspect of my life; put an end to every misery and mystery that became my new normal and give me total restoration, in Jesus name.
