Have you prayed at least 5mins for NIGERIA today?
It's the least we can all do.

Psalms 83:17 MSG
Bring them to the end of their rope, and leave them there dangling, helpless.

Wickedness will no longer reign in NIGERIA.

And to all perpetuating and sponsoring bloodshed, stealing

from our common wealth, Father, bring them to the end of their ropes.

Break the pride of their power Lord.

Leviticus 26:19-21 KJV
And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass:

#Let their entire strength be continually

spent in vain.

[20] And your strength shall be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield her increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits. .

#With your help, leaders will rule well.

Prov 8:15 MSG
With my help, leaders rule, & lawmakers legislate fairly;

*Isaiah 51:2b MSG*
... *but once I blessed him, he multiplied.*

This was the Lord talking about Abraham & Sarah.

*Note* -👇🏼
He said, "but once I blessed him, he multiplied".

*This is very profound.* 👇🏼
God's blessing, provokes multiplication.

We see the same sequence in👇🏼
*Matthew 14:19-20 KJV*
And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, *He blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude

20] *And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that* *remained twelve baskets full* .

Just 5 loaves and 2 fishes were presented to Jesus to feed over 5k people. He blessed the bread & fish and the rest they say is history.
👇🏼
His blessing upon the

meagre food provoked multiplication and even had leftovers. Wow😱

His blessing provoked the multiplication. *Let that sink in*

👉🏼God bless your home.
👉🏼God bless your business.
👉🏼God bless your ministry.
👉🏼God bless you in your workplace.
👉🏼God bless the ground you walk on.👇🏼

Jeremiah 31:13 MSG
.. I'll convert their weeping into laughter, lavishing comfort, invading their grief with joy.👇🏼

Found this passage very mid-blowing.👆🏽

Two things;
"I'll convert their weeping into laughter , lavishing comfort, *invading their grief with joy."

You are about to experience a *CONVERTION
👉🏼God will convert the bad times to good times.
👉🏼He will convert your days of weeping into new days of laughter.
👉🏼He will convert your FEW into plenty.
👉🏼He will convert your LOSSES to gains.

AGAIN ;
👉🏼He will LAVISH you with comfort.

👉🏼Lavish you with EXTRAVAGANT BLESSINGS
👉🏼Lavish you with all manner of good things.

*AGAIN* ;
👉🏼He will INVADE your grief with joy.
👉🏼Invade every disappointment with new opportunities.
👉🏼Invade every CLOSED OPPORTUNITY with new doors.

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.

Gen 16:13 MSG
She answered God by name, praying to the God who spoke to her, "You're the God who sees me!" "Yes! He saw me; and then I saw Him!"
👇🏼
Circumstances chased her (Hagar)out of her home, chased her out of the place she once felt safe & comfortable.😭
👇🏼

She was now at a place she felt rejected, dejected, abandoned, neglected, humiliated and depressed. No one saw her at this particular time of her life, no one saw her there, yet, God saw her.

📌In her rejection, God saw her.
📌In her dejection, God saw her.

📌In her abandoned state, God saw her.
📌In her neglected state, God saw her.
📌In her humiliated state, God still saw her.
📌In her depressed state too, God saw her.
👇🏼
Hagar was invincible to everyone, but, not God. God saw her.

📍She said, "I have seen the One who sees me"

*Genesis 16:13b MSG*
"You're the God who sees me!" "Yes! He saw me; and then I saw him!"
👇🏼
Many do not " *see* " God at times like these, and if truth be told, these are not easy times to focus. They can be overwhelming if one isn't sensitive.
👇🏼
*Good news today;*

STOP MAKING THE DEVIL FAMOUS
1.
"The Devil is a liar" shouted his wife as she tried to turn on the car.

"How is the Devil a liar? What has the Devil done this time?" He asked his wife as he sat on the passenger seat. She was to drive today.

"Well, we've run out fuel and we need

2.
to get to the Church event quickly. I am preaching today and the Devil is trying to frustrate me. Honey. The Devil is a liar" she said then declared some Bible verses.

He laughed and looked to the side.

"What are you laughing at?" She asked him turning to face him.

3.
"Why are you making the Devil famous?" He asked her.

She looked at him surprised. Giving him that shhhpiritual face.

"Honey, the Devil is not to blame for the low fuel, we are. You forgot to go to the petrol station yesterday after the visit from your mom.

4.
You are giving the Devil too much credit. When things go wrong it is not always the Devil's fault. He is not that powerful. Many times it is just a matter of poor human decisions and laziness" he said.

She looked at him intently.

Silence.

He smiled and continued,

5.
"Yes honey, like the day we were financially struggling. That wasn't the Devil plotting against us. It was just us who were making a mess and not making good financial decisions. We were borrowing too much, spending too much and living above our means. Once we got more

#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,

*This is a true story*

I title it;
*No more crossing of boundaries*

A certain young man named Bayo (not real name) was in a competitive market here in Abeokuta, selling similar items with a few people. He was doing well, infact, he was the envy of everyone in the market.

He made more sales on a daily basis, and most times to his amazement.

Suddenly, sales began to go down "south". He began to lose customers, debtors refused to honour their obligations and consequently, sales were now nothing to write home about...

Meanwhile, he just came

unannounced to my home alone with his wife and I innocently asked him, *how's business?" He said fine, but, his countenance was saying otherwise. His wife was quick to chip in, "Pastor, there is wahala o. We don't even break even, let alone, make profit. Sales has been so bad

lately..."(Thank God for great wives who have your back)

I dug deeper until he opened up himself and narrated everything to me. We said a short prayer & d Lord led me to this scripture...

1 Samuel 7:13 MSG
The Philistines learned their lesson and stayed home - no more border

crossings. God was hard on the Philistines all through Samuel's lifetime.

To cut the long story short, he called me a few days after our meeting and said, he needed to see me and discuss an urgent but strange occurrence with me..

He came a few minutes after the call and gave a

A LONG EXHORTATION

THEME - What if...

Woke up this morning with a puzzling question in my spirit. Dint pay much attention to it, but, as I got out of bed to begin my morning & daily drill of 60mins-90mins of Thanksgiving, that question again interrupted my thoughts 💬.

2.
The question was just packaged in two words....WHAT IF?

Before I could process the thoughts, a barrage of other questions began to roll in, and then, I knew I had to UP my game in my daily Thanksgiving drill.

You see, I do this Thanksgiving "drill" every morning before I

3.
progress to praying in the spirit and then in my understanding and with relevant bible passages. (Thanksgiving is key to my relationship with God, because, I Know this for sure...THE UNGRATEFUL CARRIES A MARK OF RESENTMENT)

NOW;

4.
What if you woke up this morning and you began to "knock" on the gates of heaven, and as you did, an angel appeared and told you, "hey, sorry bro/sis, God is still resting. He had a busy day yesterday, and cannot attend to anyone until 4pm...")

5.
What if you knocked on heaven's gate and was denied access because, the accuser of the brethren just used his reggae to spoil your blues the previous night

What if you needed to pour out libations before seeing God?
