A SHORT EXHORTATION...

Don't kid yourself, satan is well organized...

As ridiculous as it sounds, it's true.

When Jesus asked , what is your name in Mark 5:9 KJV
And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

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.👇🏼

Ezekiel 16:11 I adorned you with jewelry: I placed bracelets on your wrists, fitted you out with a necklace,

Ezekiel 16:13 You were provided with everything precious and beautiful: with exquisite clothes and elegant food, garnished with honey and oil. You were absolutely stunning. You were a queen!👇🏼

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

🔰WORD4TODAY🔰

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;*

🔰 *WORD4TODAY* 🔰

*Acts 9:40 MSG*
Peter put the widows all out of the room. He knelt and prayed. Then he spoke directly to the body: "Tabitha, get up."
👇🏼
It's an entirely different ballgame when you speak directly to a situation.
👇🏼
There is tremendous power backing up the

Word of God when spoken directly at Anything tangible or intangible .

👉🏼Peter had nothing to offer the man by the beautiful game... He only had the Word and that made all the difference to the crippled beggar..

👉🏼 Ezekiel spoke to very dry bones & the bones were restored &

eventually became an exceeding great army. ( *Just think about it for a second* )

👉🏼With Elijah's word, the impossible happened. The sunk iron axe-head floated from the bottom of the river, while the wooden handle sank.

👉🏼By the spoken Word of Jesus, a gold coin was found in

the mouth of a fish to pay tax

👉🏼By His spoken Word directly to Lazarus, He commanded him to come forth, and, he who had been dead for four days came back to life.
👇🏼
Here's the catch...God has exalted His Word even above His name & He backs it up with His integrity.💪🏻

*Speak directly to;*
👉🏼Your business
👉🏼Your marriage
👉🏼Your health
👉🏼Your FINANCES
👉🏼Your Womb
👉🏼Speak to every dead, dying, crawling or confusing. You can even call forth those things that be not as if they were.
👇🏼
Today, as you speak directly, you will see a tangible

WHY SHOOT OUR WOUNDED?
Yes, read that again...Why Shoot Our Wounded?

- Ps. 109:21-31
A Detroit newspaper reportd that a patient in a local hospital was shot and killed as he lay in his bed recovering from a previous gunshot wound. The victim had been listed in fair condition

prior to the shooting and was looking forward to going home. Hospital patients and employees were stunned. A spokesperson said that nothing like this had happened in the 50yrs of the hospital's existence.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could say the same for our churches?

Wouldn't it be encouraging if we were able to say that in 50yrs of meeting together for worship, fellowship and spiritual healing, we had not had a single instance of a wounded member being cut down by the unkindness of a fellow Christian?

Many among us have experienced the

pain that David expressed in Psalm 109. When he was hurt and vulnerable, insensitive people took advantage of him. Certainly, if he ad sinned, he needed their loving correction. what he didn't need was their scorn, gossip, and selfish neglect. Who shoots his foot after stubbing

his toe? No one in his right mind. Neither should anyone with the mind of Christ act unmercifully toward a wounded brother or sister in the body of Christ. Rather, we must "show mercy" (v.16).

Give me, Lord, a lot of mercy
For my fellow men each day,
Mercy in their many failures

So true what the Bible says..

Proverbs 28:12b NKJV
...But when the wicked arise, men hide themselves.

Everyone seem to be in hiding, Killers and their sponsors seem to be on a killing spree and the nation looks helpless. Not anymore in Jesus name.

This is what God says;

Jeremiah 48v28 MSG
"Leave town! Leave! Look for a home in the cliffs...(whether they are foreign killers or locally sponsored killers, the Lord says, "leave town")

Jeremiah 50:25 KJV
The Lord hath opened his armoury, and hath brought forth the weapons of his indignation: (

The Lord has opened His armoury)

They will bare the wrath of God.

They have sown wind.

Hosea 8:7 KJV
For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind:

Let all those sponsoring terror, bloodshed, banditry, kidnapping reap the whirlwind of God

Zech 10:6b MSG

Because I am their very own God, I'll do what needs to be done for them.

God will do whatever needs to be done in this country.

We have a lot to pray about. For our nation and for ourselves, this Sunday night at 8pm. (Live on Facebook and Instagram)

*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.. "💃🏼💃🏼
