Along about midnight, Paul and Silas were at prayer and singing a robust hymn to God. *The other prisoners couldn't believe their ears* .

Yes, they couldn't believe their ears or would you too?

Results of Secret Sin.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the author of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries, loved practical jokes.
Once he sent a telegram to each of 12 friends.

All were men of great virtue and respected in society.
The telegram said, "Flee at once, your secret is discovered!"

Within 24 hours, the story goes, all twelve had left  the country!
There may be some playful exaggeration here, but the
point is usually true that many people, including
Christians, are not what they seem to be.

James 1:15 "Then after our desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and when sin is fully grown, it gives birth to death."

SIN GROWS.
Sin always takes you further than you wanted to go.
Sin Cost you more than you want to pay,
Sin keep you longer than you want to stay.

In a conservative southern church (name withheld) , the pastor's wife found pornography on her husband's computer. After confronting him with the evidence, he admitted downloading d images off d internet, even using d computer in his study which was located in d church itself. .

In another bible-believing church not far from my home, a Christian businessman sought investment capital from other Christian individuals & businesses. He promised to invest d money in new Christian enterprises & promised a high rate of return on their money.  Alas, however,

A SHORT EXHORTATION

THEME -WHEN GOD REWRITES THE TEXT OF YOUR LIFE

1 Peter 2:4b MSG
...The workmen took one look and threw it out; God set it in the place of honor.

This may indeed be your story.

Experts took one look at you, and said, you were no good.

They took one look at you and concluded you did not deserve that promotion.

Took one look at you and concluded that ailment was terminal.

Took one look at you and concluded this one is barren, that this other one can never get a suitor.

They took one look at that struggling

business of yours and concluded that there is no way under heaven you will make it..

God is about to prove them all wrong.

They may know a lot about so many things, but, they forgot they are not "assistant god"...that, they do not have the final say.

Proverbs 16:33b MSG SAYS
Make your motions and cast your votes, BUT GOD HAS THE FINAL SAY.

God, and not man has the final say.
He can overrule,
He can overturn,
He can reverse the seemingly irreversible.

Your story is about to be rewritten.

Psalms 18:24 MSG
God rewrote the text of my life when I opened the book of my heart to his eyes.

As you cry to God this morning, get ready.
He is rewriting the entire text of your life and setting you in the place of honor.

Things are about to take a new turn.
Many will be

Are you ready for the DAY 2 Edition?

(4am-5am/5am-6am/6am-7am. IN YOUR PRIVATE CLOSET)

AUG 1st-3rd

*Theme for Day* 2-(Tomorrow morning, Aug 2nd) IS GOD HAS A SURPRISE FOR YOU

The day before Samuel was to meet Saul,
Kindly RT

God had a private discussion with him (Samuel) about this unknown young man (Saul)

IN;

1 Samuel 9:15 MSG
The very day before, God had confided in Samuel

1 Samuel 9:16 MSG
"This time tomorrow, I'm sending a man from the land of Benjamin to meet you. You're to anoint him as

prince over my people Israel.

SAMUEL was already waiting for Saul on the APPOINTED DAY, which was the next day. He positioned himself at a strategic position.

1 Samuel 9:17 MSG
The moment Samuel laid eyes on Saul, God said, "He's the one, the man I told you about.

God is

confiding in Great men and women. He's told them what to do.

You may not know them, but, they now know you. Don't worry about a thing. They will know it's you, immediately they lay eyes on you.

Encourage others, friends, family members to join in too

#Anytime God is involved..the outcome is predictable. Part 1

Of a truth, everytime the Almighty God steps in, the outcome is predictable.

Here I am studying once again, the book of Exodus 14....

it must have been a time of fear & trepidation for the israelites...

they were indeed stuck between the red sea & Pharaoh's merciless army who obviously had the advantage, however, Pharaoh could only see as "far" as his eyes could see.

He thought to himself, "I have closed them in...
Exodus 14:3 MSG
"Pharaoh will think, 'The Israelites are lost;

they're confused. The wilderness has closed in on them.'

And here was God laughing in heaven, seeing how a mere man was acting like the alpha & omega.

The pressure was now on Moses to do something...only God knows what was going through Moses' mind at that time, & while he was

waiting on God, he heard God speaking again, "don't wait on Me anymore, Move.. the deed is done."

Exodus 14:13
Moses spoke to the people: "Don't be afraid. Stand firm and watch God do his work of salvation for you today. Take a good look at the Egyptians today for you're never

going to see them again.

What reassuring words

Exodus 14:15 God said to Moses: "Why cry out to me? Speak to the Israelites. Order them to get moving.
Exodus 14:17 "Meanwhile I'll make sure the Egyptians keep up their stubborn chase -I'll use Pharaoh & his entire army,

My short testimony.
1.
Title -With God, there are no dead ends.

It was late, it was past time, yet, God stepped in and made sure I got what I asked for.

It was 1997 and I was unsure whether or not to run a Master's program in one of the federal universities in the Southwest.

2.
Although, my work schedule was flexible, I just wasn't in d mood again for acada work at this time

After some dilly-dilly, I decided to give it a short. Sadly, applications for d master's program in Industrial & Labour Relations closed 7 weeks earlier. My "village" people

3.
were whispering, "you had your chance, but you blew it..." and I was downcast.

Well, on that fateful day at about 4pm, I had that unction to go purchase the application form, and inspite of the fact that sales closed 7 weeks earlier, I went ahead, and proceeded to the

4.
postgraduate school to get the application form and to my surprise, I was able to buy the form, fill it and then submit the following day. Meanwhile, written boldly on the doorpost was, "APPLICATION FORMS CLOSED"

Why they sold the form to me even after 7 weeks of closure was

5.
the beginning of divine intervention.

Through a friend, I met one of the lecturers in the department whom we felt could pull some strings to get me in, alas, we were disappointed. He said, "as we speak, the University Senate had already met and decided on the admissions,

It's happening in a few hours time.
(PRAYERS FOR BUSINESSES, BUSINESS OWNERS, ENTREPRENEURS)

Psalms 107:24 MSG

You will see Him in action in mind-blowing ways, in your business

Have you done your 5min Prayer for NIG today?

If not, it's not too late to get started.

We must never entertain the idea of tiredness, giving-up or surrendering to the dictates of d wicked few in Nig

They will DRY UP like leaves in summer.
This is their lot

Isaiah 1:30-31 NIV

You will be like an oak with fading leaves, like a garden without water. The mighty man will become tinder and his work a spark; both will burn together, with no one to quench the fire.”

The wicked amongst us,
The very few amongst us making life miserable for d majority,
The

sponsors and perpetuators of bloodshed in our nation.
They will burn together with their cohorts.

They will all begin to DRY up and fade away like leaves in summer.

God will uproot them.
God will pull down their altars.
God will overthrow them.

It's a must. NIGERIA must indeed

rise again and soar like an eagle.

This call for prayers, is a clarion call and we will not cease until our CHANGE comes in Jesus name

This short drama is still playing out in our days.

Jesus noticed this man who had been sick, stagnant and hopelessly hopeless.

He had been there for 38yrs.
Obviously, he was not born there. He was probably dumped there by his parents.

2.
He was probably a teenager with dreams and aspiration when calamity struck, and had to be dumped there when his parents got tired of taking care of him.

Obviously, he had been in his new "residence" even before Jesus was born.... been crippled for 38yrs. WOW 😳

3.
📌
Matthew 5v6-12 TPT
When Jesus saw him lying there, he knew that the man had been crippled for a long time. So Jesus said to him, “Do you truly long to be healed?”

To cut the long story short, the crippled man was healed
📌

4.
8 Then Jesus said to him, “Stand up! Pick up your sleeping mat and you will walk!”
9 Immediately he stood up—he was healed! So he rolled up his mat and walked again! Now this miracle took place on the Jewish Sabbath.

Now, watch this in V10

5.
📌
The leaders who did not see him when he was in abject poverty and pain, suddenly saw him when he was delivered. They never came to his aid...infact, he must have been a good sport to watch. Rather than rejoice with him, they began to use their reggae to spoil his blues.
