THE LORD IS GOOD

It is a state of restlessness and agitation, often accompanied by distressing sense of oppression in ones mind and body.
THE LORD IS GOOD

Worry is probably the most common and destructive force that Christians today must learn to overcome.

Worry is a Spiritual force of oppression that destroys one’s faith. It stunts our Spiritual growth if not dealt with.

It distort our Spiritual Vision and causes mental unbalance in one, thereby making one to be restless.
Yet most Christians do not realize just how destructive worry and anxiety can be.

It is time we know that worry does not pay.
It is not a plus for one to dwell in the realm of worry and anxiety, because it is detrimental to our health in general.
It is high time we understand the danger worry and anxiety does to our health and how it affect our faith in God negatively.

I PROPHECY THAT WORRY & ANXIETY WILL NOT KEEP US IN BONDAGE OF HEALTH COMPLICATION IN JESUS NAME.

– Worry is faith in reverse. It cause us to doubt and become fearful. It cause us to take our eyes off Jesus and keep them on our problems.

Worry hinders one from releasing his faith.
-Worry is a spiritual robber. If not overcome, it can steal the joy of ones salvation. Making one feel he/she is wasting time professing Christ.

In this state of mind, you will begin to ask “why me? or why is this happening to me?
many questions born out of worry and anxiety will begin to manipulate your mind.

If not controlled, worry can cage one in bondage of fear.

Today, we are going to say no to the strong of worry and anxiety because the Scriptures declares in 2 Timothy chapter 1:7 “For God hath not given us the Spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind’
PRAISE THE LORD.

-Someone who has a sound mind need not to be worried about anything.

Is the worry about your children school fees, house rent, Job, medical bill, or maybe other miscellaneous bills?
whatever the problem is, it is not bigger than our God.
Why not tell God about it and allow him carry the load for you?

In 1 peter chapter 5:7 the Bible says “Casting all your cares upon him, for he careth for you”.

Jesus asked us to pull down that garment/load of worry at his feet.
We must understand that God does not come late neither does he come before his time.
Therefore no amount of worry about children, marriage, money, loss of job, health challenges etc, can move the hand of God to change our situation before the time appointed.
THE LORD IS GOOD

Matthew chapter 6:25-27 says “Therefore I say unto you, take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
Vs 26 “Behold the fowls of the air, for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
Vs 27 which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
PRAISE THE LORD

In the passage we just read, Jesus commands us to put aside worry. He wants us to see that our heavenly father has provided all our needs .
Our Father knows our needs even before we ask, so there is no reason to worry.

If I may ask, what profit does worry brings to us?
My answer is nothing but anxiety, high blood pressure and sicknesses. If we know that worry does not really pay why do we indulge in it?

One might be tempted to answer or say, as humans when adversity comes, one cannot help but worry about it.
But let us not equally forget that God has the answer to worry in Psalms chapter 55:22 which says “Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
PRAISE THE LORD

When it seems like you are going to be overwhelmed by life challenges, cast the burden upon God. He says “Come unto me all ye that Labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest”
He will be delighted to carry the load for us.
When you are going through pains and it seems no one understands, tell it to God. Don’t go fighting anyone or carrying the problem on your face.
Otherwise, worry and anxiety can control your minds until you are unable to lay hold of your promise in God’s word concerning your circumstances.

Worry allows what we hear, see and feel to rule us instead of walking by faith, which pleases God. In return He releases his power to work on our behalf.

I PROPHECY THAT GOD WILL DELIVER YOU FROM EVERY YOKE OF WORRY IN JESUS NAME.

God wants us to recognize that worry is a sin, and wants us to repent from it. Let us not forget that God has promised to supply all our needs according to his riches in Christ Jesus.

Let us stop worrying over that problem and allow the master, the load carrier to help us carry the load IN JESUS NAME. AMEN.

PRAISE THE LORD.

SEASON OF LOVE

Text: Mark 16:1–20, John 15:13–15

Two thousand years ago, there was mixed reactions about the death and resurrection of JESUS CHRIST that has transformed positively and shaped the world.

A transformation that shaped the world for good for children of God and the body of Christ. A transformation that has continued to cause afflictions and pains to the Kingdom of darkness.

Easter period brings to birth a sober reflection of the pain and agony JESUS went through for us. The world was thrown into a tumult. Grief was written on the faces of believers, while joy, accomplishments and celebrations was seen on the faces of unbelievers. At the resurrection of JESUS CHRIST the table turned, and permanent grief, pains, sorrow and afflictions became the portion of the Kingdom of darkness and its agents.

Whenever we celebrate Easter season, we are celebrating the pains, afflictions, reproach, death and the ultimate victory JESUS gave to us the believers and the body of Christ.

I DECREE TODAY THIS VICTORY WILL BE PERMANENT IN JESUS NAME.

EVERY ASSUMED VICTORY THE ENEMIES HAVE OVER YOU IS CANCELLED IN JESUS NAME.

Good Friday, the day of crucifixion which stretches to the following Sunday, Easter the day of resurrection is an embodiments of His life on earth, His challenges, victory and what He represents and stands for in the world.

Now, let us look at the realities of JESUS CHRIST life and ministry on earth, which as His believers, we are encouraged to emulate.

Good Friday –LOVE IN ACTION. Johm 3:16
The day of Christ crucifixion should be seen as a day of grief, and sorrow but the resultant rewards of victory and resurrection nullified the grief, pains and we ought to have felt and transform same to a pleasant and Good day that the foundation and attainment of mankind liberation, freedom was achieved.

On Good Friday, we honour the memory of what CHRIST did and achieved for us over 2000 years ago.
He took our place on the cross. He bore our sin, our shame, reproach and grief not because we earned it, but because of his love for us.
It is Good not because of what He endured but because of what he accomplished.

2. 2 Cor 5:21 AN ORACLE OF SUBSTITUTION.
He became the substitute taking our place. We deserved to die but he gave us life. We had a debt, but he paid it in full with his life.
We were guilty, but He declared us righteous. Jesus stood in the gap for us, and took the fall for our sake. What manner of love could be greater than a man laying down His life for others.

3. COLOSSIANS 2:14–15 HE USHERED US INTO THE REALM OF PERMANENT VICTORY.
The enemy thought that His death was the end, but it was the beginning of grievous defeat for the Kingdom of darkness.
1. Satan’s grief over mankind was broken
2. Every curse was nailed. Galatians 3:13
3. The Blood of Jesus silenced every accusation. Hebrews 12:24.

4. Romans 5:8 SEASON OF REVELATION OF LOVE.
While we were yet in our state of imperfection, lost. Wandering, not yet broken, He showed us the greatest love.

5. Hebrews 2:14–15 The power of addiction, oppression and satanic bandage was shattered by the Blood of Jesus. Deliverance took his permanent place in our lives.

What is your sober reflection of Easter season?
Easter is not about the party celebrations, get together, the drinks, food, new wears, but a remembrance of the season and era that JESUS CHRIST, declared in John 19:30 that the whole lots of mankind’s problem is tamed “IT IS FINISHED “

Praise the Lord!

DANGERS OF PREMARITAL SEX. Part 1.

SEX is sweet if you allow it to flow within the context that God had ordained it to be. Between a man and his wife. Therefore, if you are not married don’t indulge in pre marital sex.

A lot of girls out there are from marine world on assignment to destroy unguarded destinies who fall into their traps.

Not every girl you see out there you make sexual advances to, except your legal wife. So many girls out there have venom in between their legs that will sting any man that eats from it, Flee.

A man who can control his sexual urge is a man who can live many years on earth and free from sexual transmitted diseases. Etc.

Some men don’t know that some of their downfalls are caused by sleeping with MULTIPLE women.

Not every girl has a good spirit. You inherit that demonic spirit the moment you sleep with her.

Businesses, contracts, breakthroughs and marriages has been destroyed by indulging in pre marital sex.

Some girls are demons parading on the streets looking for who to devour. While some have venom in between their legs, some women are destiny terminators; be careful.

1. Do not obey your sexual urge. Bind the spirit in the name of Jesus. These spirits can mislead one to a place of destruction. Control the burning desire to have sex, if you don’t want to end up in hell.

2. Don’t date a lady because she has sexy curves, boobs and shapes. Those things are just trap from the marine world to get one.

3. Don’t entertain any advances or relationship with the opposite sex that will lead to sin. Flee from every ungodly relationship that will jeopardise your relationship with God.

Ask God in prayers to help you control your sexual urge. Self control and abstinence in most cases pays a lot.

4. Having many girlfriends doesn’t make you a man. It only makes you a womanizer, a cheat, and a sinner before God.


5. The world celebrates successful men. Nobody will celebrate you for having many girlfriends. Flee like Joseph in the Bible for your own safety.

6. If you need to talk to a counsellor or your Pastor for prayers, please do so fast. Don’t be ashamed or afraid of talking to someone. No one is perfect, we all need help from God in our daily activities.

Study your Bible always. Keep yourself busy with godly related materials that will help you keep your body and spirit under subjection.

Therefore what is the benefit of indulging in pre marital sex and then lose your soul in hell?

SEASON OF DIVINE OVERTURNING

Text: Ezekiel 21:27 “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”.

Praise the Lord

What can be more reassuring to known that God is working hard to overturn every unfavourable situation in our lives to good for us?No condition is permanent and every problem has its expiry date. Meaning, there is an end to that problem you are doing through. The good news is that God has your back and all that has brought pain, sorrow, your way will end today in Jesus name, Amen.

The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 10:13 “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye maybe able to bear it”.

There is nothing that is happening to us that God is not aware of. He knows your pain, the discomfort, the joblessness, and sicknesses. Yet he is saying through his word that he will make a way of escape for us in Jesus name.

God is a way maker, a caregiver and a man of war. Call unto him in times of trials, he will manifest at his appointed time. Even when it seems like all hope is lost, friends and family members have rejected you. Don’t faint, look unto Jesus the way maker and from an impossible angle, he will make a way.

The Bible tells us in the book of Genesis chapters 39—41 the sufferings and trials that befell Joseph. He was sold into slavery by his brethren, in Egypt. In Egypt 🇪🇬 he was thrown into prison by Portiphar, yet in all these trials that befell Joseph his faith in Christ did not falter or diminish. And suddenly God showed himself for Joseph through the interpretation of dreams that promoted him to be ruler in Egypt.

When God turned the captivity of Joseph from an ordinary prisoner to be a ruler, he no doubt forgot all the pain, misery and suffering he suffered while in Egypt.

Today, God is going to turn again our captivity to testimony in Jesus name, Amen. “When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream”. Psalms 126:1 The season has come for you to testify that the Lord is good because your season of overturning is here.

The God that turned again the captivity of Hannah from barrenness to fruitfulness is here to grant us answers to our prayers. Hannah had good reason to feel discouraged. She was unable to bear children. She shared her husband with a woman (Peninnah) who ridiculed her at will. Their husband Elkanah could not solve her problem and even the high priest misunderstood her motives (1 Samuel 7–14)But instead of retaliating or giving up hope, Hannah prayed. She brought her petition prayerfully before God.

Each of us may face times of barrenness in our lives when nothing “comes to birth” in our life, work, service, or relationships. It is difficult to pray in faith when we feel so ineffective, but prayer opens the way for God to work.

The Bible says in Ecclessiastes chapter 3:1 “To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven”.

It makes it easier for us to relate with God if we understand that there is a set time for God to answer our petition and release our blessings.

Blessings can be confiscated or tied in evil altars by agents of darkness spiritually or physically. By reason of this prayers God is set to overturn them and they will locate you in Jesus name, Amen.

The secret to peace with God’s is to discover, and accept God’s perfect timing. The danger is to doubt or resent God’s timing. This can lead to despair, rebellion, or moving ahead without his direction.

I PROPHECY THAT GOD WILL VISIT YOU AND TURN YOUR CAPTIVITY AROUND FOR GOOD IN JESUS NAME, AMEN.
