February 28 PROMISE OF PROTECTION Read Psalm 91. Paul said, in writing to the Church “. . . ye are God’s husbandry [garden, farm], ye are God’s building” (1 Cor. 3:9). That means we belong to God. Now, if you have a building worth anything, even your own home, you are going to protect it every way you possibly can. And God, in His Holy Word, has promised us protection. I think the greatest such promise is Psalm 91. Many years ago, I read this Psalm from a Swedish translation. I found that verse 10 translated in the King James Version as “There shall no evil befall thee . . . ,” was translated in the Swedish version as, “There shall no accident overtake thee . . . .” I researched it and found that this meaning is, indeed, included in the original text. I then claimed this protection. Some years later, I did some checking and found that I had driven nearly two million miles preaching the Gospel without having a single accident! Understand, I’m not bragging on my driving; I’m bragging on ...

March 1 BY THY WORDS For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. — MATTHEW 12:37 Jesus Himself made the above statement. Words are much more important than many people realize. Do you remember Job — and his three so-called “friends” who came to comfort him? Job’s cry to those who came as comforters and stayed as tormentors was, “How long will ye vex my soul, AND BREAK ME IN PIECES WITH WORDS?” (Job 19:2). Words make us or break us. Words heal us or make us sick. According to the teaching of the Bible, words destroy us, or words make us full of life, happiness, and health. Words that we spoke yesterday make life what it is today. That agrees with what Jesus said in Mark 11:23, “. . . he shall have whatsoever he SAITH.” Those things which you say are words. In fact, you could read that last phrase like this: “He shall have the WORDS that he speaks.” Confession: By my words I shall be justified. I know that I shall have whatsoever I say. I shall hav...

TUESDAY FEBRUARY 27 YOUR TROUBLERS ARE ARRESTED SCRIPTURES READING; Act 9:31-35 "  Then had the churches rest throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified ;and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied''. Hear this: As fire dies out without wood, so troubles disappear and expire when the troubles are under divine arrest.  Beloved, in this season, all the troublers of your life and destiny shall be arrested by God and shall expire from existence in Jesus Name. When a troubler is around anybody, the life of such a One will be full of Crisis, anxiety, unrest, fear, toiling and struggling. But as for you, an end has come to all your troubles, you shall begin to enjoy progress and rest. In our anchor Scripture above, it says ''Then had the churches rest  throughout all Judea and Galilee, and Samaria, and were edified: and  walking in the fear of the Lord, and the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were  multiplie...

February 27 IS YOUR PROFIT SHOWING? Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. — 1 TIMOTHY 4:15 If your profiting is to appear to all, then it is to show! Why is godliness profitable? Why is living for God, being God’s child, walking in fellowship with God, keeping God’s commandments, profitable? It is because God has made some promises to His faithful children. Notice the word “promise” in yesterday’s text: “. . . having PROMISE of the life that now is . . .” (1 Tim. 4:8). God has made us promises in this life. Our profiting is because of these promises. And when our profiting (which is due to God’s promises) appears to all, we are able to show the world there is a God in the Church — just as when Israel was walking with God, she could show the earth “there is a God in Israel” (1 Sam. 17:46). Confession: I will meditate upon God’s promises and give myself wholly to them, that my profiting may appear to all.

MONDAY – FEBRUARY 26 YOU ARE DIVINELY PROTECTED SCRIPTURE READING: ACTS 9:22-30 DAILY READING "He disappointed the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise." (Job 5:12). Hear this: The life of every child of God is divinely protected and assured in Christ for safety and preservation. Beloved, Good morning and welcome to a new week with pleasant surprises.  In this week, God shall do great things for you, mind-blowing miracles shall be your portion and many will gather to celebrate with you in Jesus Name. Let me assure you that in Christ, you are divinely protected and unkillable by the power of the enemy. Show me a man who is on a mission for God, then I will show you a man who is not killable. The Almighty God is ready to go to any length to protect the life of a single child of His who is actively working for His purpose. Listen, those who are absolutely committed to God don't lack nor beg for God's commitment to them. They cannot b...

February 26 DON’T TALK FEAR Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth. — PROVERBS 6:2 With your mouth, you are either going to give God or Satan dominion over you. When you were born again, you confessed the lordship of Jesus Christ (Rom. 10:9,10). You confessed Jesus as your Lord. Jesus began to have dominion over you and to rule in your life. But, when you confess Satan’s ability to hinder you, to keep you from success, to cause you to fear — even though you are a Christian — you are giving Satan dominion over you. And, naturally, when Satan has dominion over you, you are filled with weakness and fear. Don’t ever confess your fears. “But what if I’m afraid?” you might ask. “You” are not really afraid. The Bible says that God has not given you — the real “you” — the spirit of fear, but He’s given you the spirit of power, of love, and of a sound mind. Fear isn’t something that is coming from the inside of you, trying to get hold of you. Fea...

February 26 GODLINESS IS PROFITABLE For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come. — 1 TIMOTHY 4:8 Some people would have you believe that godliness — living for God, being born again, walking in fellowship with the Lord — has no profit in this life. They think we must simply endure life with all its ups and downs, struggles and trials, always bearing in mind that “this life will soon be o’er.” I’m glad Paul gave us a balanced viewpoint by saying that godliness is not only profitable “over yonder” in the next life, but it has promise of “. . . the life that now is . . . .” As sinners, we were bankrupt, but God had mercy on us, and He sent Jesus to redeem us. Jesus came not only to save us from our sins — but to live within us (Col. 1:27). And Jesus wants us to bring as much glory to His Name, and to pay as rich dividends to Him as possible in this life. Instead of saying that godli...

February 24 RESISTING FEAR For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. — 2 TIMOTHY 1:7 Today’s text calls fear a spirit, and it states definitely that the spirit of fear does not come from God. Today’s faith thought is a confession you can use to successfully resist fear when it attempts to come upon you. Fear, I resist you, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. In His mighty Name, I resist you. I refuse to fear; I refuse to be afraid. It is written in His Holy Word that He hath not given me the spirit of fear; But of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. I no longer have the spirit of fear. I have the spirit of love. I have the spirit of power. I have the spirit of a sound mind.

February 23 FEAR NOT But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid. — MATTHEW 14:27 God never comes with a message of fear. You can start in the Old Testament and trace all the way down through the New, and you will see that every time God manifested Himself to people, or sent angels or Jesus Himself, they always came with the message, “Be not afraid! Fear not!” Fear doesn’t come from God. It comes from the devil. And Christians, including preachers and teachers, have no business going around putting fear into people. We hear so much fear preached: Fear of sickness and disease; fear of what’s going to happen in the world; and fear of the devil. The way some people preach about demons causes people to be afraid. I preach about the devil and demons, too, but I preach that we’ve got authority over them. I preach that we should always remember, in all our encounters with the devil, that He’s a defeated foe. Fear is not the message of the Church. Fa...

THURSDAY – FEBRUARY 22 YOUR JOY SHALL OVERFLOW SCRIPTURE READING: ACTS 3:1-9 Thou will show me the path of life; in thy presence is fullness of joy;  at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore." (Psalm 16:11). Hear this:Jesus is the secret behind the life of an overflowing joy. Beloved, I welcome you into a new day, a day of joy and gladness. Today, you shall not know sorrow, an overflowing and everlasting joy shall God shower on you in Jesus Name. Jesus is the secret behind the life of an overflowing joy. To be connected with Christ is to be disconnected from sorrow and weeping. Joy is the opposite of sorrow and weeping. It is your season of joy-overflow. From today, you shall live in joy, sorrow and weeping shall be far from you. Every programme of the devil to make you weep is cancelled and terminated. You have wept before; you shall weep no more in Jesus Name. whatever has been robbing you of  your joy is dying now and never to show up again. Brethren, Jesus is the...

February 22 UNFAILING LOVE . . . [Love’s] hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening]. Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end] . . . . — 1 CORINTHIANS 13:7,8 (Amplified) If you walk in love, you will not fail — because love never fails! We are interested in spiritual gifts (1 Cor. 12 and 14), and we ought to be. The Bible tells us that prophecies will fail, tongues will cease, and knowledge will vanish away. But thank God, love never fails. Yes, I believe in prophecy and prophesying. I believe in speaking in tongues. Thank God for these gifts! But if you exercise these gifts outside of love, they become as sounding brass and tinkling cymbals. Let’s have prophecy. Let’s have tongues. Let’s have faith. Let’s have knowledge. But let’s have love with it. Let’s put love first, because we are in the family of love, and we have become acquainted with our Heavenly Father, who is love. We ought to want to learn and ...

February 21 LOVE CHARACTERISTICS . . . [Love] does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail. Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person . . . . — 1 CORINTHIANS 13:6,7 (Amplified) “Love bears up under anything and everything that comes . . . .” If you have the God-kind of love within — and if you walk in the God-kind of love — you will make it every time! “. . . Love . . . is ever ready to believe the best of every person . . . .” Natural human love is ever ready to believe the worst about every person! I’ve traveled across this country for many years in the ministry, and it’s amazing what you hear about this preacher and that preacher, this person and that person, this singer and that singer. I don’t pay the least bit of attention to any of those stories. I don’t believe a word of them. I believe the best of everyone. Children ought to have the right to be brought up in this lo...

TUESDAY – FEBRUARY 20 THE HIGHEST PRIVILEGE IN LIFE SCRIPTURE READING: ACTS 27:21-25 For there stood by me this night the angel of God whose I am, and whom I serve " (Acts 27:23). Hear this: Nothing can be compared to being the Son or Daughter of the Most High God.  Beloved, Good morning and welcome to another glorious day that the LORD has made. Today, good things shall locate you; you shall receive the help of God and of Men, you shall not see shame in Jesus Name. I want to let you know that you are highly privileged and blessed because you are a child of God. In our previous studies, we have seen that whose son you are determines the privileges you can enjoy in life and in destiny. The highest privilege in life as our topic put it is the privilege of being a child of God. Your connection and  relationship with God through our Lord Jesus Christ offers you privileges that no man can give you. What your academics, your business acquisition cannot offer you, your sonship in Chr...

February 20 A SECOND LOOK . . . Love . . . is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong]. — 1CORINTHIANS 13:5 (Amplified) The subject of walking in the God-kind of love is so important — and so overlooked by Christians — that we’re going to take some extra time examining it. “. . . Love . . . takes no account of the evil done to it . . . .” This has to be the God-kind of love, because we were enemies of God, and God didn’t take account of the evil we had done to Him. He sent Jesus to redeem us. He loved us while we were yet sinners. “. . . Love . . . pays no attention to a suffered wrong . . . .” We might just as well admit it — there aren’t too many people walking in God’s love, even though they have it! No, they’re walking in natural human love, and they surely pay attention to a suffered wrong! They get huffy about it. A husband and wife, both Christians, will become angry and won’t speak to each other fo...

February 18 THE BEST WAY . . . Love (God’s love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking . . . . — 1 CORINTHIANS 13:5 (Amplified) Take time to let today’s text sink into your heart.Too many people would rather declare, “Well, I know what’s mine, though. I’ve got my say-so, and I’m going to have it. I’ve got my rights, and I’m going to have them.” And they insist on having their own way, no matter how much their actions may hurt someone else. I was only twenty years old and unmarried when I pastored my second church, and I rented a room from a couple in the church. The man of the house knew the Bible, and he had a marvelous experience with God. But he was the type of person who said, “I’ve got my say-so, and I’m going to have it. I’m a member of that church just as much as anyone else, and I’ve got my say-so.” He had his say-so all right, and so did some of the others, until they wrecked the church. This text says that love does not insist on h...

February 17 LOVE ARISES Love . . . is not boastful or vain glorious, does not display itself haughtily. It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly . .— 1 COR 13:4,5 (Amplified) It’s always flesh that is boastful, haughty, conceited, arrogant, inflated with pride, rude, and unmannerly. And by an act of your own will, you can decide not to give in to these fleshly temptations. You can decide rather to walk in love — to walk in the Spirit. The battle is there between your human spirit and your flesh. But the Bible says, “. . . Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh” (Gal. 5:16). Decide to allow your spirit to dominate. When the temptation comes, stand still a moment and begin to speak the Word of God. Begin to say, “I am born of love. I will allow the love of God within me to dominate.” When the temptation comes, begin to speak the Word of God. Begin to say, “I am born of love. I will allow t...

February 16 AN EXPOSÉ ON LOVE Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy . 1 COR 13:4  What about this God-kind of love? What are its characteristics? They are given to us in First Corinthians 13. It is to be regretted that the translators of the King James Version translated the Greek word for divine love, agape, as “charity.” My favorite translation on this “exposé on love” is found in The Amplified Bible. I think every Christian should read the Amplified translation of First Corinthians 13 every few days, if not every day — and practice it! Let’s look at it, beginning with verse four: “Love endures long and is patient and kind . . . .” Many people endure long — but they aren’t very kind while they’re doing it! They just suffer along with people and things because they have to. A wife will put up with a husband, but she’s not too kind while she does it (and vice versa). “. . . Love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy . ...

February 15 THE BRETHREN We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.— 1Joh 3:14,15 A minister’s wife came to me greatly disturbed. “Brother Hagin,” she said, “I can’t go to Heaven. I hate my mother-in-law!” After letting her stew a little, I was able to help her. I asked her to look me straight in the eye and say, “I hate my mother-in- law.” And I asked her to check on the inside of her — in her spirit — as she was saying that. She said, “I hate my mother-in-law.” Then she exclaimed, “Why, something seems to be ‘scratching’ me on the inside!” “Yes,” I said, “that’s the love of God in your born-again human spirit that loves everyone. The real you doesn’t hate your mother-in-law. But you’re letting the outward man dominate the situation.” “You’re right,” she said, “I don’t really hate my mother-in- ...

February 14 LOVE ATMOSPHERE Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. . . . If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. — 1 JOHN 4:7,8,12 Husbands and wives need to let the love of God dominate them — and not just natural human love — because natural love is so shallow. Christians have an advantage over other people. Not only can they love their spouse with natural affection, but they can add to it divine love which never seeks its own, but always seeks the other’s welfare. In all the years of our marriage, my wife and I have walked in love. I never consider myself or what I want; I consider what Oretha wants. I never want to be self-seeking; I always want to put her first. And Oretha reciprocates. We always try to outdo one another in love. And how blessed it is! Praise God! Our home is like Heaven on earth. A troubled person who ...

TUESDAY – FEBRUARY 13 DIVINELY MADE (I) SCRIPTURE READING: GENESIS 1:26-28 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female createdhe them." (Genesis 1:27).  Hear this: Being created in the image of God and having dominion over  everything God created is the best thing that ever happened to man. Beloved, Good Morning; today the blessing of God shall be seen in your life and the image of God inside you shall manifest in Jesus Name. I want to remind you that you are special specie in God's creation. You are made in the image of God and afterHis likeness. God placed you to be in dominion over all that He created. To me that is the best and highest thing God did for man. Psalm 39:14 says, "We are fearfully and wonderfully made", while Heb. 2:7 says "Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownest him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands".  Look, as it was in the beginning, so ...

February 13 KNOWN BY OUR LOVE By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. — JOHN 13:35 How is the world going to know us? By our love. By this divine love. By this God-kind of love. By this unselfish love. “God so loved — He gave.” Now, His love isn’t natural human love. Natural human love is selfish. As a usual thing, even a mother’s love is a natural human love. It’s selfish: “That’s my baby!” But if we would learn to let the divine love of God which is shed abroad in our hearts dominate us, it would make a real difference in our lives. It would cure the ills in our homes. Natural human love can turn to hatred when it doesn’t get its way. It will fight and fuss, claw and knock, “cuss” and be mean. Divine love, when it is reviled, reviles not again. The God-kind of love is not interested in what I can get, but in what I can give. Do you see how that can solve all the problems in your home? As children of God, the nature of God is in us — and Go...

February 12 THE LOVE LAW A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. — JOHN 13:34 God’s family is a love family. And the love law of the family of God is, “. . . That ye love one another;as I have loved you . . . .” How did God love us? Did He love us because we deserved it? No. God loved us while we were yet unlovely. God loved us while we were yet sinners! (And think about this: If God loved us with so great a love while we were yet sinners and unlovely — when we were His enemies—do you think He loves us any less now that we are His children? No, a thousand times no!) Love is the only commandment of the love family. If you love another person, you won’t steal from him. If you love someone, you won’t kill him. You won’t covet his house. You won’t tell a lie about him. Therefore, divine love is the fulfilling of the law. Since love is the law of the family of God, one step out of love is a step into sin. If you’ve mad...

February 11 MATURING FRUIT But the fruit of the Spirit is love . . . . — GALATIANS 5:22 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit . . . . — JOHN 15:5 Love is the fruit of the recreated human spirit, produced because of the life of Christ within. Picture a fruit tree. Where does the fruit grow? Fruit grows on the branches. Jesus used the illustration of the tree. Who are the branches? We are. How does natural fruit grow on the branch? It receives nourishment from the trunk — the vine — of the tree. Life from the trunk flows out into the branches. It’s the same in the spiritual realm. God is life. God is love. His life and love flow out to the believers — the branches. Fruit grows. It doesn’t come fully mature. The Bible says, “But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected . . .” (1 John 2:5). The word “perfected” means matured. John was talking about maturing in the fruit of love. (I don’t think a...

February 10 LOVE BORN . . . God is love. — 1 JOHN 4:8 . . . The love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost . . . . — ROMANS 5:5 When you were born again, God became your Father. God is a love God. You are a love child of a love God. You are born of God, and God is love; therefore, you are born of love. The nature of God is in you — and the nature of God is love. In fact, you can’t say you don’t have this divine love, because everyone in the family of God has it — or else they’re not in the family! They may not be exercising it. They may be like the man who wrapped his one talent in a napkin and buried it (Matt. 25:25), but the Bible says that the love of God has been shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. That means the God- kind of love has been shed abroad in our heart, our spirit, our inner man. Romans 5:5 is not talking about the baptism in the Holy Spirit. It’s talking about the New Birth — when you are born of the Spirit of God — that’s when the love of God...

FRIDAY – FEBRUARY 09 SURRENDER YOUR  CONFIDENCE TO GOD (II) SCRIPTURE READING: II COR12:6-10. DAILY READING And he said unto me, my grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will in rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me." (II Corinth 12:9). Hear this: If you want to prevail with God, you must surrender your strength and confidence to God.  Yesterday, we saw that to surrender is key to destiny fulfilment. This simply means that when you surrender your confidence or strength to God, the door of destiny will be opened to you to access and to be fulfilled. Also, to surrender is the key to a life of success. It also simply means that until you empty yourself to God, He will not give you all He has for you. It is only an empty vessel that has the capacity to be filled. So, if you empty your life to God, He will fill you up with His glory. In addition, to surrender to God is the key to survival...

February 9 KEEPING HIS WORD . . . I am watching over my word to perform it. — JEREMIAH1:12 (NASV) You may be certain that if you accept God’s Word and act on it, He is watching over that Word to make it good in your life. All you need to do is to act on the Word. It is very important that you learn this simple little lesson. Acting on the Word is not struggling. It is not crying. It is not praying. It is simply acting on what God has spoken, and that brings results. Several years ago, after I had spent hours struggling and praying about finances and healing for my family, I lay exhausted on the altar of a church. Once I was finally quiet, the Lord could speak to me. “What are you doing?” He asked. “I came out here to pray through,” I said. “What do you mean by ‘pray through’?” “I guess I was going to pray until I had some kind of feeling or a witness that these needs are met. I’m 365 miles from home. I thought I would know somehow when my children were healed and our financial needs we...

February 8 BY FAITH . . . The just shall live by faith. — ROMANS 1:17 The faith life is the most beautiful life in the world! It is the life God wants us to live, and the walk God wants us to walk (2 Cor. 5:7). Let both your words and your actions agree. If you talk faith, you must walk faith — you must act faith. Your actions and your words must agree that you are a believer. It won’t do any good to talk faith if you’re not going to act faith. And if it were somehow possible to act faith without talking faith, that wouldn’t do any good, either, because your words and your actions must agree. Some people declare one minute, “I’m trusting God to meet my needs.” Then, with the next breath, they say, “Well, it looks like I’m going to lose my car. I can’t make the payments.” One minute it sounds like they’re talking faith, but in a few moments their actions prove otherwise. Some even quote God’s Word, saying, “I know the Lord said in Philippians 4:19, ‘But my God shall supply all your need...

February 7 SWINGING FREE Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. — EPHESIANS 6:10 One day in 1932, two hundred sailors were holding onto ropes attached to the dirigible, the USS Akron, as they attempted to moor the giant airship to a steel mast in San Diego. Suddenly, however, the dirigible shot straight up into the air. Some of the men hung onto the lines and were swept up with the ship, soon falling to the ground. Several were killed. After all the rest had fallen, one man kept hanging on. He could be seen as the dirigible soared high in the sky. People were screaming and fainting. They knew this sailor couldn’t hold on much longer, and any minute he might fall back to the earth and certain death. But after an hour and forty-five minutes, when they were able to pull the dirigible back to its mooring, the sailor was still dangling from the airship. An ambulance was waiting to take him to the hospital, but he said he was all right. People asked him h...

February 6 STRENGTHENED . . . The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? — PSALM 27:1 . . . Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. — ROMANS 9:33 The language of faith says, “I can do all things in Christ. The Lord strengthens me. I cannot be conquered. I cannot be defeated. If a natural force comes against me, it can’t defeat me, because there aren’t enough natural forces in all the world that could conquer the Christ who dwells within me! “Greater is He who is in me, than he who is in the world. I am fortified from within. I’ve learned how to put Christ to work for me and in me. I have, dwelling in me, the Spirit of God who raised Jesus from the dead! I have God’s wisdom, strength, and ability in me. I’m learning how to let that wisdom govern my intellect. I’m letting God speak through my lips. I’m daring to think God’s thoughts after Him. “He is the strength of my life, whom shall I fear? God has made me greater than my enemies. God has enabled me to pu...

FEBRUARY 05 DISCOVERING KINGDOMS MYSTERIES  TOPIC: OPEN DOORS FOR YOU SCRIPTURE READING: REVELATION 3:7-11 For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries''(1 Corinthians 16:9) Hear this: When God appears all closed doors and shut gates open on their own accord. In this second Month of the year 2024, God shall go before you and all closed doors shall open unto you without further delay in Jesus name. In our anchor scripture Apostle Paul declared that God has opened unto him a great and effectual door. For every user of this devotional, God Almighty shall open great and effectual doors before you in this season and beyond.  The doors of breakthrough; doors of favour and blessings that the enemies locked against you all these years shall be opened by the special grace of God.  You shall no longer live outside your comfort zone in Jesus name. Apostle Paul also added that there were many adversaries. Who are the  adversaries? The adversar...

February 5 I CAN I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. — PHILIPPIANS 4:13 Many years have come and gone since I cast my cares upon the Lord, and although I will confess that I’ve been sorely tempted, I have not worried. I have not fretted. I have not had the blues. I have not been discouraged, no matter what. (Some people said I didn’t have enough sense to worry. But, thank God, I had too much Bible sense to worry!) Worry was the most difficult sin for me to give up. Worry is the greatest temptation you will ever face too. But you can resist it. And you must. Your worst enemy is the flesh. The flesh and natural human reasonings would limit you to your own ability. You look at the circumstances, influences, problems, cares, tests, storms, and winds, and you say, “I can’t.” The language of doubt, the flesh, the senses, and the devil is, “I can’t. I don’t have the ability, the opportunity, or the strength. I’m limited.” But the language of faith says, “I can do all th...

February 4 WORRY . . . Take no thought for your life . . . . — MATTHEW 6:25 Shortly after I was born again, I promised God, “I’ll never doubt anything I read in Your Word. And I will put Your Word into practice.” Everything in the Word was a light and a blessing to me until I came to Matthew 6:25. I learned from a footnote that the Greek reads, “Do not be anxious about tomorrow.” Cross-references pointed out that God says, “Do not worry.” But I was full of worry! Not only was I nearly dead with a heart condition; I was about to worry myself the rest of the way to the grave! “Lord,” I said, “if I have to live without worry, I can’t be a Christian!” Suddenly everything in the Word seemed dark and fuzzy; I couldn’t get any more light from the Word. My conscience smote me, because I was not practicing the Word. Finally at 6:00 p.m. on July 4, 1933, I committed all my cares to the Lord. I said, “Lord, forgive me for worrying, for being full of anxieties, for fretting, for being discouraged,...

SATURDAY – FEBRUARY 03 YOU SHALL WEAR NEW GARMENT (II) SCRIPTURE READING: GENESIS 41:38-43 By the great force of my disease is my garment changed; it bindeth me about as the collar of my coat." (Job 20:18). Hear this:Your garment is your identity; so, put on a good garment. As we have different garments in the physical world, so also there are  different garments in the spiritual world. In the physical world, at least  people are aware of the kind of garment they put on. They wear clothes based on their choices. But in the spiritual realm many are not very much conscious of the garment they are wearing. Some, clothes are forced on them in order to carry out wicked work upon them. Some people you see on the street are  wearing garment of shame and reproach, poverty and wretchedness. Others, garments of disease and affliction, captivity and pain, sorrow and depression.  I stand by God to declare to your life, any evil garment forced on you, right now be removed from yo...

February 3 COMMITMENT Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. — PSALM 37:5 A marginal note in the King James Version reads, “Roll thy way upon the Lord.” Cast. Commit. Roll. Just roll your cares, your burdens, your anxieties, your worries, upon God. Isn’t that what the Word tells us to do? But God won’t take your cares away from you. Some people have asked me, “Please pray that the Lord will lighten this load I’m carrying.” God won’t do that. God tells you what to do about your burdens. And if you don’t do something about them, nothing will be done. “You” is the understood subject of today’s text: You commit your way unto the Lord. You roll your way upon the Lord. You cast all your care upon Him. Some people don’t get an answer to their prayers because they’re not praying in line with God’s Word. They’re not doing what God said to do about cares, anxieties, worries, and so forth. But it won’t do any good to pray about your cares unless you do wha...

FRIDAY – FEBRUARY 02 YOU SHALL WEAR NEW GARMENT SCRIPTURE READING: ZECHARIAH 3:1-7 DAILY READING "Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments and stood before the angel." (Zech. 3:13). Hear this: The kind of garment you wear determines how you will be  addressed.Once again, Happy New Month. In this new Month, the Almighty God will put a new and better garment upon you. He will decorate you with His garment of  glory and honour. People will see you, appreciate and honour you in Jesus Name. As from today, your life shall wear a new look. Beloved, your garment is your identity. The kind of garment you wear determines how you will be addressed. What you wear determines what you get. We can see and confirm this from the life of the High Priest in our passage,  Joshua the High Priest was clothed with a filthy garment and the result was that, the devil stood at the right hand and resisted him. Despite the fact that Joshua was standing before the angel of God, yet satan could sta...
