“While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, and day and night shall not cease.” Genesis 8:22 REFERENCE Genesis 8:13-22 In life, there will be winter and summer, and there will be day and night. These changes in season speak of good times and bad times; therefore we must be alert in the good times and take advantage of them in order to sail through the toughest of times. God gave Noah the promise shown in today’s text, after the earth’s complete destruction by water. He was saying to Noah, ‘Look! You can start over with the seeds in your hand and create...

…For just as you presented your members as slaves of uncleanness, and of lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves of righteousness for holiness. Romans 6:19 REFERENCE Romans 6:18-22 A call to a deeper walk with God! Paul here is subtly advising Christians that the way we lived in the world, such that we had no regard, respect, nor consideration for the things of God and the things of the spirit, we should flip that in a positive way now that we are in Christ, and we should live in such a way that we have...

Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your bed and walk.” John 5:8 REFERENCE John 5:1-9 “Rise, take up your bed…walk.” What a strange command to give to a 38-year long paralytic. However, this divine word became the vehicle of divine power. This man was commanded to do what he couldn’t - to make an attempt to rise and walk. And as he did, he received strength to do it. Strength is imparted by the Word of God! What would have happened if the man had reasoned out the fact that he hadn’t walked for 38 years and became afraid...

We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed. II Corinthians 4:8-9 REFERENCE II Corinthians 4:8-9 Apostle Paul was one of the Greatest Of All Time (GOAT) in Christendom. Even though his ministry was marked by countless hindrances, he still attained great heights and fulfilled God’s call on his life because he decided to be unstoppable. All through the Bible and even in today’s world, it appears that every great man/woman once had a great hindrance, but they did not allow the hindrance stop...

We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;  persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed. II Corinthians 4:8-9 REFERENCE II Corinthians 4:8-9 A popular adage says, “Nobody stones a fruitless tree.” This means, if you don’t matter at all or if there is nothing to you, you won’t need to fight any battles. The presence of contest in your life is proof that you have prospects; otherwise, Satan won’t bother discouraging you. You are a bag of seeds, with a divine code to be fruitful and multiply. There is more to you than meets the eye; so,...

I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. Genesis 12:2 REFERENCE Genesis 12:1-3 The blessing of God is a divine empowerment that triggers divine favor; it is the invisible goodwill that produces the visible good things we see, and it is a God-given capacity to succeed. The effect of the blessing of God was evident in the lives of the Jewish Patriarchs, starting from Abraham. After God blessed Abraham on their first encounter in Genesis 12, he went on to prosper on all fronts (spirit, soul, body and in...

Pilate therefore said to Him, “Are You a king then?” Jesus answered, “You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.” John 18:37 REFERENCE John 18:28-37 At Jesus’ trial, He kept quiet most of the time until when He was asked about His God given assignment on earth. He quickly answered without mincing words; “Yes I am a king and I was born to lead people into the truth about God.” A lesson in this...

And so it was, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. Exodus 17:11 REFERENCE Exodus 17:8-16 In our text we see that every time Moses lifted his hands to God in this battle, Israel prevailed; and any time his hands were down, Amalek began to prevail. That’s a scary thought right there. It shows you what happens in the realm of the spirit when your hands go down in lukewarmness. It means as soon as you begin to relent in prayer/spiritual exercise the enemy prevails - darkness comes, things...

And Moses said to Joshua, “Choose us some men and go out, fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.”  Exodus 17:9 REFERENCE Exodus 17:8-16 One of the remarkable events of history is the six-day war. It was a brief war that took place between June 5 and 10, 1967; it was the third of the Arab-Israeli wars. Here is what happened: Iraq signed an alliance with the president of Egypt and the King of Jordan and together, all three joined forces against Israel.  When the Israelis saw what...

Then God blessed them and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Genesis 1:28 REFERENCE Genesis 1:26-30 As Christians, we must understand that the only language the devil understands is power. This is why we are to take heed to the dominion mandate God gave us right from the beginning. Knowing that God has given us authority to dominate is good, but knowing how to deploy that authority and how to wield it is of greater...
