Yes, we are prepping up for tomorrow's session.

Our Bi-monthly PRAYER & INTERCESSION. 1st Edition in July.

Everyone needs that One Big Break. (O.B.B)

David had just one major O.B.B. and the rest they say is History.

1 Samuel 18:30 MSG

Acts 16:16 MSG
One day, on our way to the place of prayer, a slave girl ran into us. She was a psychic &, with her fortunetelling, made a lot of money for the people who owned her.

Acts 16:17She started following Paul around, calling everyone's

attention to us by yelling out, "These men are working for the Most High God. They're laying out the road of salvation for you!"

*Acts 16:18*
*She did this for a number of days until Paul, finally fed up with her, turned and commanded the spirit that possessed her, "Out* !

In the name of Jesus Christ, get out of her!" And it was gone, just like that.

👉🏼Sometimes, undue familiarity or sentiments can be our bane.
👇🏼
We hold on to what we should be rid off.
👇🏼
We associate with people we should disassociate from.

👉🏼Abram had this problem and it is still with us to this day.

👉🏼It wasn't until after Abram cut off from Lot, that God spoke to him.

*Genesis 13:14 KJV*
And the Lord said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes...

*For starters, "Lot" means a veil or a covering*
👇🏼
Now, how can anyone make progress with a heavy " *covering* " upon him or her?
👇🏼
It takes a level of discernment not to allow sentiments get in the way of our walk with God.

*Psalms 1v1 outs it Aptly.* 👇🏼

#Lamentations Chapter 5 sums up everything happening in NIGERIA. From banditry-kidnapping-herdsmen-landgrabbers-bad governance-Ineptitude etc.

Powerfully described in the scriptures, but, there is a solution at the end

Lamentations 5:1 MSG
"Remember, God, all we've been through. Study our plight, the black mark we've made in history. (THE NEEDLESS PLIGHT OF NIGERIANS BROUGHT ABOUT BY BAD GOVERNANCE IS UNPRECEDENTED)

Lamentations 5:2 Our precious land has been given to outsiders, our homes to strangers. (FOREIGN HERDSMEN FREELY & FORCEFULLY GIVEN OUR LAND

Lamentations 5:3 Orphans we are, not a father in sight, and our mothers no better than widows. (THE NARRATIVES OF SOME NIGERIANS WHO HAVE BEEN AT THE MERCY OF BANDITS, TERRORISTS & HERDSMEN)

Lamentations 5:4 We have to pay to drink our own water. Even our firewood comes at a price (IS THERE ANYONE NOT PAYING MORE FOR BASIC NEEDS, EVEN, INSPITE OF HEAVY TAXATIONS & CHARGES.)

#Are will still blaming the Church?

Got several messages, comments and the likes from people who still have this belief that the Church should cease from praying and "diversify" into providing roads, stable electricity, good health care, etc

Well, for starters, the Church of

Christ cannot be held responsible for the failure of Government to provide basic, very basic amenities. Those ruling NIGERIA, from the federal level to the LG level, were either voted in or imposed on us by other means possible to do these things.

Elected officials the world over, have a minimum standard vis-a-vis citizen's expectations.

Therefore, the church cannot be held responsible for government's ineptitude.

The church cannot and should not be held responsible for poor educational facilities, poor electricity, poor

roads, poor health care, poorly equipped Hospitals and dispensaries.

The church cannot and should not be held responsible for the state of insecurity.

Many are quick to say, "with all our prayers, wat has changed?" Well, will all our prayers, God has shown so much mercy to this

country. It is our prayers and the mercies of God still upholding us inspite of how unpalatable the situation is.

We are quick to say, there are countries the world over doing well, who are not as prayerful as we are, yes, countries like China, Singapore, etc. But, we forget to

A SHORT EXHORTATION

THE TRUE HELPER

It's a horrible thing to remain defenseless in this wicked world, and that's why we all need Jesus.

There are places your millions will not be able to defend or help you.

Places where the high and mighty you know are not only helpless,

but, unable to defend you.

There are times the best doctors you know are helpless when you are rushed to the hospital.

Places where your security measures even run into hiding and unable to defend you.

The name of Jesus, that name alone is the ultimate defense. The ultimate

name everything and everyone bows down to.

A ready help and helper in time of need.

Others may want to help, but are unavailable or unable.

Others may initially want to help, but, suddenly change their minds in your time of need.

Others may have the capacity to help, but,

choose not to help or offer you help at a cost you are unable to afford.

Jesus is different. He is the real deal.

Always ready
Always available.
Always willing to help.

Psalms 46:1 MSG
God is a safe place to hide, ready to help when we need him.

If no one else chooses to

A SHORT EXHORTATION

They wanted to make sure He remained dead, but...

Matthew 27:63 MSG
They said, "Sir, we just remembered that that liar announced while he was still alive, 'After three days I will be raised.'

Matthew 27:64 MSG
We've got to get that tomb sealed until the

third day. There's a good chance his disciples will come and steal the corpse and then go around saying, 'He's risen from the dead.' Then we'll be worse off than before, the final deceit surpassing the first."

Matthew 27:65 MSG
Pilate told them, "You will have a guard. Go ahead and secure it the best you can."

Matthew 27:66 MSG
So they went out and secured the tomb, sealing the stone and posting guards.

Men were assigned to the tomb Jesus was buried. They were not mere men...

they were trained soldiers. They wanted to make sure He remained dead.

His adversaries had so much hatred for him, yet, they feared every word He spoke about resurrecting again on the third day.

Even if He arose, He would not be able to get out of the tomb, they said to

themselves, but, they were soooo wrong. His purpose must be accomplished.

I don't know what or who has been assigned to keep you down.

Keep you down from achieving your purpose.

Jesus broke through. You will break through that hindrance.

They could not keep Jesus from coming

Jesus, this is above your "Pay grade"

Luke 8:49b KJV
"...Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master."

I wouldn't blame them for this piece of advice to those who were troubling the Master. Afterall, it was obvious to all, the child was dead

1. They probably didn't really

""KNOW" Jesus.
2. They probably knew or heard He healed the sick, gave sight to the blind, healed one or two crippled folks, and the best they probably heard of Jesus was that, when He showed up at Peter's workplace, He did what could be termed as an exceptional miracle. Well,

Elijah did similar stuffs anyways, they said.
3. The knew Jesus to be a gentle and easy going and probably did not show any sign of someone that could raise the dead, someone in the semblance of Elijah who called down fire or Elisha who was a bit temperamental and performed some

very powerful miracles.
4. Jesus? Oh pleaseeeeee. Raising a child is above His "pay grade" He doesn't have the pedigree or looks, they said.

Nkw, imagine Jesus coming in and making them look stupid by saying in V52

Luke 8:52 MSG
Everyone was crying and carrying on over her.

Jesus said, "Don't cry. She didn't die; she's sleeping."

Like seriously?
Jesus, You must really have some nerve coming in here and telling us we dint know the difference between a chil sleeping & a child that is stone cold dead.

Luke 8:53 MSG
They laughed at him. They knew she

*Acts 16:25 MSG*
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?

👉🏼They were in prison & they knew what was to *come...death* , yet they kept on singing & praying.

👉🏼It wasn't that they had any reasonable thing to be thankful for, (at least, from human comprehension.)
👇🏼
A " *normal* " person, would be in fear & trepidation in this situation.

👉🏼They did what any child of God in an unpleasant situation should do.. *.Pray & Praise* & just as everyone else was about to write them all off as insane, the unthinkable happened.👇🏼

Acts 16:26 MSG
Then, without warning, a huge earthquake! The jailhouse tottered, every door

flew open, all the prisoners were loose.
👉🏼As you Pray & Praise;
The unthinkable will happen in your life👇🏼
👉🏼Every door shut against you will suddenly open.
👉🏼Everything u were denied, will suddenly find it's way to your doorstep
👉🏼Greater doors for more exploits shall be opened

It was said of you;

It's not possible...
No "Nau," It can't be him/her
He/she lacks the requisite qualifications..
How come? He/she is just an ordinary fellow...who does he/she know?

That's what "SEE FINISH" causes

1 Samuel 10:11 MSG
When those who had previously known Saul

saw him prophesying with the prophets, they were totally surprised. "What's going on here? What's come over the son of Kish? How on earth did Saul get to be a prophet?"

What they never thought you could attain unto,
What good they never imagined Could befall you,
What blessings

they never thought could be yours, God will make it happen for you.

He hasn't changed. He still makes stuffs happen for the "underdogs"

Psalms 77:14 MSG
You're the God who makes things happen; you showed everyone what you can do -

Through you, God will show the world that

it's at His discretion to make anyone great.

You will move from "HERE to THERE" in Jesus name.

It's a nice that will shut everyone up.

It's your time for that O.B.B.
it's your time and your turn for that Major ONE BIG BREAK (O.B.B.) in Jesus name.

*Hab 1:5 MSG*
" Look long and hard. Brace yourself for a shock. Something's about to take place and you're going to find it hard to believe.
☝
The last statement i find very intriguing...

👉🏽It strikes one as a statement of CERTAINTY.

"...Something's

about to take place and you're going to find it hard to believe."😱

Brethren, there are things God will do that you will find hard to believe..☑

When Jesus had this strange encounter with Peter by the lake in Luke 5, the resultant effect was unbelievable.😱.. Peter found it

very hard to believe because, the result of the encounter was against all odds.

✔Against the run of circumstances playing out in your life, God will do the unthinkable that will defy human comprehension.
👇🏼
Your testimony will be.. "it could only have been God.. "💃🏼💃🏼
