CUSTODIANS OF A MESSAGE
THAT WORKS
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of
Christ: for it is the power of God unto
salvation to everyone that believeth...
(Romans 1:16).

T he Gospel of Jesus Christ that we preach is a

message that truly works. It’s a message that
produces undeniable results for everyone who believes
it. It’s the reason you must be quick and bold to share it
with others.
I remember talking to a man who had a very severe
heart condition. The doctors had diagnosed him with heart
failure and said he needed a transplant. But as I shared
the Gospel with him, I said, “While I’m talking with you,
there’ll be a change in your heart. All you have to do is
believe what I’m telling you; just believe and give me a few
minutes of your attention.”
He agreed. So, I kept talking to him, sharing with him
the words of life. After about 15 minutes, I said to him,
“It’s done.” And he replied, “Yes; it’s done.” The next test
conducted on him showed he had a new heart! All the
troubles were gone. I’ve seen this happen several times.
It doesn’t matter what the case is; this Gospel works.
It’s the message of Jesus Christ, and it produces results
everywhere. Glory to God!
6
 When you carry a message that works, you’re
confident. That’s why the Lord wants us to be confident of
the Gospel. We can’t keep it to ourselves because it works.
It truly works! The Bible says, “Jesus Christ the same
yesterday, and to day, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8).
In Romans 1:16-17, Paul said, “For I am not ashamed
of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to
salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first
and also for the Greek. For in it the righteousness
of God is revealed from faith to faith...” (NKJV). The
message has no borders. It works in every country, every
city, and for everyone who believes. It transforms lives,
brings healing and health to the sick, prosperity to the poor,
and salvation to the lost.
How can we be quiet about such a message that
transforms destinies and catapults men and women from
despair to victory? Therefore, preach the Gospel boldly.
The message works every time, everywhere, and for
everyone who believes. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the glorious Gospel of
Jesus Christ that works everywhere, every time, and
for everyone who believes it. I preach this Gospel with
boldness and confidence, bringing healing, salvation,
and transformation to all who believe. Amen.

STAY FOCUSED ON THE
DIVINE MISSION
For I have not spoken of myself; but
the Father which sent me, he gave me a
commandment, what I should say, and
what I should speak (John 12:49).

T he Lord Jesus was focused on His divine mission.

He knew exactly what He came to do and was
undistracted. He declared His purpose and remained
committed to it: "For the Son of Man has come to seek
and to save that which was lost" (Luke 19:10 NKJV).
Then in John 4:34 NKJV, He said, “…My food is to do
the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work,”
showing His deep commitment to completing the mission
given to Him by the Father. But then in John 20:21, He
said something remarkable, “…as my Father hath sent
me, even so send I you.” Therefore, like Him, we must
stay focused on the divine mission.
He said in Mark 16:15, “…Go ye into all the world,
and preach the gospel to every creature.” This is the
divine mission. Matthew 24:14 says “And this gospel of
the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a
witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.”
Our mandate is to complete the full preaching of the Gospel
in all nations this year; how focused are you on this?

 Your accountability to the Lord would be on the basis
of your participation in the Gospel. Anyone can say to you
today, “You're doing a great job,” but what truly matters is
if you’re doing what the Lord said to do. Even in speech,
the Lord Jesus set an example as seen in our theme
verse. Every word He spoke was in alignment with the
divine mission.
He said in John 8:29, “I always do those things that
please the Father.” We’re called to emulate Him in all
things. Therefore, let your life mirror the Master in speech,
action and commitment to the divine mission. Stay focused
on fulfilling the mandate of the Gospel. Personalize the
mandate and live every day with the consciousness that
necessity is laid on you to preach the Gospel. Nothing in
this world is more important than that.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for setting me on a path of divine
purpose. I walk in alignment with your will and in the
consciousness that necessity is laid on me to preach
the Gospel. My life is a reflection of true and unwavering
commitment to the cause of the Gospel, in Jesus' Name.
Amen.

FOLLOWING HIS DIVINE PLAN
For we are his workmanship, created in
Christ Jesus unto good works, which
God hath before ordained that we should
walk in them (Ephesians 2:10).

R omans 8:29 says, “For whom he did foreknow,

he also did predestinate….” Predestination is
at work in you. God has a divine plan for your life, and He
has set events and their sequence in motion in line with
His divine plan.
Consider John the Baptist, for example, whose entire
ministry was for the sole purpose of making the Messiah
known to Israel. God could have simply told John where to
find Jesus, but John had to follow God's instructions and
wait for the sign he was given: “...Upon whom you see
the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, this is
He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit” (John 1:33 NKJV).
Finally, Jesus stood before him, and John recognized
Him (John 1:29-34). It unfolded precisely according to
God’s divine plan. Consider, too, Samuel’s intriguing visit
to anoint one of Jesse's sons as king (1 Samuel 16:1-13).
Samuel thought he had found the Lord’s anointed when
he saw Eliab, with his impressive stature. But God said,
“Not him, for I have rejected him” (1 Samuel 16:7). One
by one, Jesse brought seven of his sons before Samuel,
and each time God said, “Not this one.”
God could have simply told Samuel who to anoint,
10
but He allowed the process to unfold step by step. Finally,
Samuel asked Jesse, “Are here all thy children?” Jesse
admitted that there was still one more son, David, who
was tending the sheep. When David was brought before
Samuel, the Lord said, “...Arise, anoint him: for this is
he” (1 Samuel 16:12). God's divine plan for David came
to pass according to His preordained design.
God has a plan for your life and it’s a good one. He has
predestined your life for His glory, and He knows exactly
where you are in His divine plan. You don’t need to be in
a hurry or get in a frenzy trying to fulfil His destiny for your
life. He has all the events and their sequence planned out
in line with His divine purpose.
Yours is to follow the path which He’s prearranged
ahead of time. Ephesians 2:10 AMPC says, “For we are
God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated
in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good
works which God predestined (planned beforehand)
for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time],
that we should walk in them [living the good life which
He prearranged and made ready for us to live].”
PRAYER
Dear Father, I trust you wholeheartedly, knowing that
you have predestined my life for your glory. My life is a
testimony of your faithfulness, and I yield myself to your
perfect will, ever advancing and fulfilling all you have
called me to do, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

TRUE AUTHORITY LIES WITH
GOD AND HIS CHURCH
And whereas they commanded to leave
the stump of the tree roots; thy kingdom
shall be sure unto thee, after that thou
shalt have known that the heavens do
rule (Daniel 4:26).

T he Bible, in Daniel 4, tells of how Nebuchadnezzar

had a dream that troubled him deeply. In this
dream, he saw a magnificent tree that grew tall and strong,
providing shelter and food for all living creatures. However,
an angelic being ordered that the tree be cut down, leaving
only a stump bound with iron and bronze. This dream
perplexed the king, and he consulted Daniel, a prophet of
God, to interpret it.
Daniel revealed that the tree was the king himself, and
he would be humbled for his pride until he acknowledged
that "...the heavens do rule" (Daniel 4:26). A year later,
being yet unrepentant, Nebuchadnezzar was struck with
madness; for seven years, he lived like an animal, eating
grass and roaming the fields.
According to Daniel 4:17, this decree came from
the "watchers": "This matter is by the decree of the
watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy
ones: to the intent that the living may know that the
most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth
it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the
basest of men." The "watchers" here refer to angelic
beings assigned to oversee matters on earth with authority
to enforce God's will.
Nebuchadnezzar thought he ruled the world until
12
he was compelled to acknowledge the rulership of the
heavens. It’s the same today. Those who falsely claim
absolute authority over others, operating under the
delusion that their influence gives them control over the
nations, don’t realize that true authority lies with God
and His heavenly Kingdom. All power belongs to the
Lord, and He executes His judgements on earth through
the Church: “And Jesus came and spake unto them,
saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in
earth” (Matthew 28:18).
We enforce God’s will in our world: “All this energy
issues from Christ: God raised him from death and set
him on a throne in deep heaven, in charge of running
the universe, everything from galaxies to governments,
no name and no power exempt from his rule. And not
just for the time being, but forever. He is in charge of
it all, has the final word on everything. At the center of
all this, Christ rules the church. The church, you see,
is not peripheral to the world; the world is peripheral
to the church. The church is Christ's body, in which
he speaks and acts, by which he fills everything with
his presence” (Ephesians 1:20-23 MSG). Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the assurance that the
heavens do rule and that all power belongs to you. I
rejoice knowing that all the kingdoms of this world will
submit to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. I declare that
your will and purpose prevail over the nations, and your
authority reigns supreme, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

UNDERSTANDING THE
FATHER'S HEART
For the Son of man is not come to
destroy men's lives, but to save them...
(Luke 9:56).

I n praying to effect changes, especially in your town,

city or nation, a clear understanding of the Word and
insight into the mind of God is important. For example,
consider a scenario where a group of Christians in a city
or nation are praying in agreement that they don’t want a
particular government official. Meanwhile, there’re other
Christians who work with that same leader who may be
praying every day for the leader to succeed and remain
in office.
While those declaring a change may be justified, God
also considers the prayers of His children who are standing
in faith for that leader. It reveals something about the nature
of God—His fatherly nature. You may expect Him to act
in a certain way and He doesn’t. It’s because He thinks
differently. His actions are governed by His love, mercy,
and purpose.
Consider the case of James and John in Luke 9:54-56.
They were offended by those who did not plan adequately
to receive the Lord Jesus and asked, “...Lord, wilt thou
that we command fire to come down from heaven,
and consume them, even as Elias did?” (Luke 9:54).
14
But Jesus rebuked them, saying, “...Ye know not what
manner of spirit ye are of. For the Son of man is not
come to destroy men's lives, but to save them...” (Luke
9:55-56).
The Master demonstrated the Father’s heart of love
and mercy throughout His ministry. He understood His
purpose and remained committed to fulfilling it according
to the will of the Father. God's nature is consistent. He
is merciful and loving. He operates as wisdom, always
seeking to save and to bring His children into alignment
with His divine purpose.
Understanding this helps us appreciate why God may
not always act the way we expect Him to, even when we
think our desires are justified. As you give yourself to the
Word and the guidance of His Spirit, you will increasingly
know and walk in His perfect will and plan in every situation
and be able to pray effectively with direction and precision.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for your love, mercy and wisdom.
I recognize your fatherly heart, and I yield myself to your
will and purpose, and declare that your love and grace
prevail in my life and in the lives of those around me as I
walk in alignment with your Word and fulfil your purpose,
in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FOCUS ON WHAT TRULY MATTERS
And he said to them all, If any man will
come after me, let him deny himself, and
take up his cross daily, and follow me
(Luke 9:23).

T o be a true success with the Lord, you must walk

in His wisdom. It’s about putting Him first and
letting His wisdom guide your every step. God’s Word is
God’s wisdom. So, give more attention to the Word. “Let
the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom...”
(Colossians 3:16).
Unfortunately, many people train themselves to major
on the non-essentials because they don’t know what’s truly
necessary. They invest their time and energy in things that
don’t count for eternity. It brings to mind the story of two
sisters, Martha and Mary, who each responded differently
to the Lord Jesus’ visit to their home (Read Luke 10:38-42).
Martha was consumed with the numerous tasks
required in hosting a guest, along with much anxiety and
distraction. In contrast, Mary chose to sit at the Master's
feet to absorb His teachings and engage in fellowship with
Him, and the Lord commended her choice.
16
 When Martha expressed her frustration, the Master
gently replied: “...Martha, Martha, thou art careful and
troubled about many things: But one thing is needful:
and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not
be taken away from her” (Luke 10:41-42). The Master
pointed out that Martha’s priorities were misplaced.
You must prize the Word of God above all else
because there’s so much you will never know or understand
otherwise. Focus on what truly matters—your study and
meditation on the Word and your fellowship with the Holy
Spirit. It’ll keep you always on the path of ever-increasing
glory, victory, success and prosperity, and you’ll live a life
that truly pleases and honours the Lord.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for your Word which reveals
your wisdom and purpose. I focus on the one thing that
matters most—my fellowship with you in, through, and
by the Word. I walk in your wisdom, guided by your Spirit,
and I yield myself completely to your purpose, fulfilling
your will, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THE UNITY OF THE FAITH
Till we all come in the unity of the faith,
and of the knowledge of the Son of God,
unto a perfect man, unto the measure
of the stature of the fulness of Christ
(Ephesians 4:13).

T here's a level of maturity that the Church of Jesus

Christ all over the world is expected to come to
before the Rapture of the Church. This doesn’t mean every
individual will become mature overnight, because we’re still
winning souls. Therefore, there’ll be baby Christians, and
it’ll take time to train and raise them in the Word.
But God's people are growing, becoming more aware
and more united in the faith. This will continue until such a
time that there’ll be unity in the spirit. What unifies God’s
people in this manner is the knowledge of the Word and
the ministry of the Holy Spirit.
What the opening scripture tells us isn’t something to
be achieved in heaven but here on earth. Notice it says,
“Till we all come...,” not just some of us but the whole
Church moving in unity. Even the babes in Christ who don’t
know much are expected to follow the guidance of those
who have walked with the Lord longer.
18
 That's why Paul could confidently say, "Be ye followers
of me, even as I also am of Christ" (1 Corinthians 11:1).
He said, "Copy me," because he was following the Master.
It’s like living in a city with a high level of enlightenment;
even if someone never went to school, he or she would
be cultured likewise by simply being in that environment.
In Christ, we all live in God’s spiritual city: “But ye are
come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living
God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable
company of angels” (Hebrews 12:22).
We all are involved in this maturing of the Body of
Christ: learning the Word, following the Lord's guidance,
and helping others to grow in Him until we, the Church,
arrive at that place of maturity and unbroken unity that the
Word describes. Ensure to play your role.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the ministry of the Holy Spirit
and the knowledge of your Word that unifies and matures
us in Christ. I yield myself to be a worthy example to
those who are coming into the fold. As I follow Christ, I
guide others by my words, actions and devotion to you.
Thank you for your grace that enables me to walk in your
wisdom and truth every day, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THE CONSISTENCY OF JESUS CHRIST
Remember them which have the rule over
you, who have spoken unto you the word
of God: whose faith, follow, considering
the end of their conversation. Jesus
Christ the same yesterday, and to day,
and for ever (Hebrews 13:7-8).

W hat we read in our opening scripture above is

quite profound. There’s a connection between
verses 7 and 8 that many Bible translators didn’t grasp.
This is due primarily to the lack of punctuation in the original
Greek text.
The connection is straightforward when you study the
passage in context. Both verses actually emphasize the
consistency of the Lord Jesus Christ. The 8th verse, which
says “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and
for ever,” is not independent of the preceding verse 7.
What the Spirit is emphasizing in those verses is that
the leaders who brought us God's Word had a way of
life that demonstrated and bore testimony to the power
and consistency of the Lord Jesus Christ; He’s the same
yesterday, today, and forever. In other words, their faith
produced results that reflected the unchanging nature
of the Lord Jesus—His faithfulness, trustworthiness and
20
glory— proving Him to be consistent. What He did back
then, He’s able to do, and still does today.
Therefore, the instruction is clear: follow the faith of
those who delivered God’s Word to you, considering the
outcome of their lives, which is the revelation of Jesus
Christ’s consistency and unchanging nature. No wonder
James 1:17 describes Him as the Father of lights, with
whom there’s no variableness, neither shadow of turning;
no shadow of inconsistency with Him.
He said through the prophet in Malachi 3:6, “For I am
the LORD, I change not….” Today, it makes no difference
where you are in your life or what you need; Jesus Christ
is the same yesterday, today and forever. Trust Him
with your life. Those who came ahead of us testified of
His faithfulness and the infallibility and immutability of
His Word. We have the same testimony; He never fails.
Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the consistency of your Word
and the faithfulness of the Lord Jesus Christ who’s the
same yesterday, today, and forever. My life is a revelation
of the unchanging nature of Christ, His glory, power and
love, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

PRESENTING JESUS CHRIST ALIVE
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to
day, and for ever (Hebrews 13:8).

W hen I began holding crusades many years ago,

my focus was to present Jesus Christ alive to
the people. Hence the posters or handbills would read,
“Presenting Jesus Christ Alive” in so and so village, town,
or city, naming wherever it was. I presented Him alive
because, as far as I was concerned, Jesus Christ was the
same as He was in Bible days, and alive.
Even today, all over the world, in our books, our
messages and teachings, the purpose is the same: to
present Jesus Christ alive, proving His unchanging nature
and power. In those early years, we held campmeetings
annually. In one of those years, the theme of the camp
meeting was “Beyond The Written Pages.”
Yes, the Lord Jesus in His power, glory, dominion and
grace lives beyond the written pages. He’s alive today,
blessing and transforming lives as He did in Bible days.
Christianity transcends mere words on paper. It’s about
presenting Jesus Christ alive to the nations and peoples
22
of the world, beyond history and prophecy.
We must take this message beyond our immediate
borders, to reach the farthest regions, to the ends of the
earth. This has to be your mindset now more than ever.
The real Church can’t be stagnant or static; the real
Church must be dynamic. It must continually reach beyond
borders, presenting Jesus Christ alive, relevant and as
Lord in a postmodern world. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the consistency of your vision
and the revelation of Jesus Christ alive today. I’m taking
the message beyond borders, presenting the living
Christ to my world and beyond. The Church is marching
forward, expanding and spreading the message of your
love, power and grace through the nooks and crannies
of the earth, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

SEE FROM THE MOUNTAIN TOP
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those
things which are above, where Christ
sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your
affection on things above, not on things
on the earth (Colossians 3:1-2).

T he Word of God gives us clear instructions as to

how to live, the mindset we should have, and what
our outlook on life should be. Take for example what we
just read in our opening scripture. The Lord is telling you to
focus on heavenly things and not on earthly things. Have
a mountain-top view.
It brings to mind something remarkable that the Lord
told me many years ago; He said, “Son, see from the
mountaintop.” The interesting thing is, I didn’t even realize
I was on the mountaintop until He told me. You see, it's not
something you feel physically or emotionally.
I know that some Christians say they are “journeying”
and trying to get to the mountaintop. But being born again,
you’re on the mountaintop. You’re risen with Christ; seated
together with Him, far above principalities and powers.
Therefore, see from there. Live from there. It’s the best
24
view. Hallelujah!
From the mountaintop, you see things clearly. Your
perspective is elevated. You’re above the distractions and
limitations of the world. You see from a higher realm, the
realm of the Spirit, where it's only victory, strength, health,
prosperity and unending progress.
Ponder again what we read in Colossians 3:2, “Set
your affection on things above, not on things on
the earth.” Your thoughts, desires, focus and devotion
should be directed towards heavenly realities, not earthly
distractions. Align your mind with the heavenly perspective
and live victoriously every day.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for raising me up with Christ to
live and see from the mountaintop. My affection is set
on heavenly things, and my vision is clear and focused;
I live above the distractions and limitations of this world,
in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

YOUR DIVINE IDENTITY
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,
longsuffering, gentleness, goodness,
faith, meekness, temperance: against
such there is no law (Galatians 5:22-23).

I n Luke 6:44, the Lord Jesus made this remarkable

statement: “For every tree is known by his own
fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a
bramble bush gather they grapes.” In other words, when
you see a tree that produces oranges, you call it an orange
tree, or mangoes, a mango tree, as the case may be. The
tree is identified by the fruit it produces.
Now, let’s apply this to our opening scripture that talks
about the fruits of the recreated human spirit. The first fruit
listed is love. That means you’re a love tree, because you
produce love fruit; love is a fruit of your spirit. Another fruit
of your recreated spirit is joy; you produce joy fruit, and
what does that make you? It means your name is Joy.
Then there’s peace; since you produce peace fruit,
that means you’re Peace. Longsuffering means patience,
so your name is Patience because patience is a fruit of
your spirit. So, never say “I’m not a very patient person.”
26
You’re patient. Gentleness is another fruit; so, your name
is Gentleness.
Also, goodness; your name is Goodness. Then there’s
faith, meekness, and temperance. These are all fruits
of your spirit; they describe who you are. Praise God!
Furthermore, Ephesians 1:17 shows another beautiful
description of your divine identity by referring to our
heavenly Father as “…the Father of glory...." If your
Father is the Father of Glory, then who are you? It means
your name is Glory. You’re the glory of God. Blessed be
God!

CONFESSION
I bear the fruits of righteousness, and I walk in the glory
of God, manifesting love, joy, peace and all the virtues
of the recreated human spirit. My life is an expression of
God’s divine nature, and I walk in the consciousness of
who I am in Christ, radiating divine excellence, in Jesus’
Name. Amen.

ACCEPT GOD’S WORD AS TRUTH
Jesus said unto him, If thou canst
believe, all things are possible to him
that believeth (Mark 9:23).

W hat a statement from the lips of the Master in our

opening scripture above! Notice the profound
but very simple instruction: “Only believe.” He says ALL
things are possible to you if you believe. What does it take
to believe? It simply means to accept that what the Lord
has said is true.
The Bible tells a beautiful story in Mark 5 that illustrates
this. The Lord Jesus was approached by Jairus, a ruler of
the synagogue whose daughter was gravely ill. Desperate
for help, Jairus pleaded with the Lord to come and heal
his daughter. On their way to Jairus’ house, messengers
arrived to tell him his daughter had died.
But then the Bible says, "As soon as Jesus heard
the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of
the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe" (Mark 5:36).
When they arrived at Jairus' house, they found mourners
already gathered. But the Lord Jesus took the girl’s hand

and said, "...Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted,
Damsel, I say unto thee, arise" (Mark 5:41). Immediately,
the twelve-year-old stood up and began to walk around,
and they were astonished.
Accept the Word of God as truth and act accordingly.
That’s faith. Faith is not something you struggle with; it’s
simply acting on the Word. That suddenly opens you to
limitless possibilities, where anything and everything is
possible unto you.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for your Word which is true
and dependable. I act on your Word with boldness and
confidence, knowing that what you have said is true and
unchanging. My faith is alive and effectual because I act
on your Word. I journey from glory to glory, walking in
the light of your Word, and fulfilling your purpose for my
life victoriously, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

IT’S ALL IN YOU

According as his divine power hath given

unto us all things that pertain unto life
and godliness, through the knowledge
of him that hath called us to glory and
virtue (2 Peter 1:3).

T he Lord is wonderful. Think about all that He’s made

us and given to us in Christ Jesus! Our opening
scripture says He’s given us everything that pertains to life
and godliness. That means everything you require to live
triumphantly, in absolute dominion over circumstances, in
health, prosperity and peace is all in you.
This simply means that the quality of your life is not
in the money you have, for all the money you’ll ever have
is inside you. All the cars you’d ever drive, the clothes,
houses, and everything you’d ever own and enjoy in this
life is inside you. Ephesians 3:20 says, “Now unto him
that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that
we ask or think, according to the power that worketh
in us.”
The Bible says in Ecclesiastes 3:11, “He hath made
everything beautiful in his time: also he hath set the
world in their heart….” The NIV says, “...He has also
set eternity in the human heart….” If eternity is in your
heart, then everything you need is in your heart, waiting
30
to be released through your faith and actions. The quality
of your life is in your heart.
This helps us understand the words of the Master in
Luke 6:45, “A good man out of the good treasure of
his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil
man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth
that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart
his mouth speaketh.” He shows us where good and evil
things come from: your heart. He also shows us how they
come—from your words.
God, in Christ Jesus, has placed everything you
need inside you. You’re like a seed, fully equipped with
everything you need to become a fruit, a plantation, and a
forest. But you must grow in the knowledge of God’s Word
and speak accordingly: “Which things also we speak…”
(1 Corinthians 2:13). That’s how you activate what God
has deposited in your spirit.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the revelation of your Word. I
recognize that everything I require for life and godliness
is already inside me. Therefore, I function from this
vantage position of knowledge and strength as I chart
my course in prosperity, victories and divine health,
manifesting your righteousness, excellence and glory
in all that I do, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THE VIRGIN BIRTH CONFIRMS
HIS DEITY
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and
shall bring forth a son, and they shall
call his name Emmanuel, which being
interpreted is, God with us
(Matthew 1:23).

W hen we say Jesus Christ is deity, we’re affirming

that He is God. This claim is significant,
especially when you consider that many around the world
view Jesus merely as a prophet or a great teacher. While it
may seem respectful for some to call Him a great prophet
or a remarkable teacher, these assertions fall far short of
His true identity.
That’s the reason it’s important to understand who
He really is by first examining the miracle of His birth. The
Bible describes His birth as extraordinary, something that
had never occurred in all of history. Matthew 1:18 says,
“Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When
as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before
they came together, she was found with child of the
Holy Ghost.”
Mary’s conception was a miracle. Before she and
Joseph were married or had come together, she was found
to be pregnant by the Holy Ghost. Joseph, described as a
just man and unaware that God was behind it all, intended
to quietly end their engagement to avoid bringing disgrace
upon her.
32
 But as he pondered this, an angel of the Lord appeared
to him and explained that the conception was not of man
but of God (Matthew 1:20). The angel also instructed
Joseph to name the child Jesus, stating, “...for he shall
save his people from their sins” (Matthew 1:21).
What makes this account even more remarkable is
that it was a fulfilment of prophecy. The Bible says, “Now
all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was
spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a
virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son,
and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being
interpreted is, God with us” (Matthew 1:22-23).
This prophecy was given long before Jesus was born,
indicating that His birth was part of God’s divine plan. The
name “Emmanuel” means “God with us,” clearly pointing
to His divine nature. Jesus was not born through natural
means. His birth, being purely divine, is evidence of His
deity and also proves His divine origin.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for revealing the deity of Jesus
Christ through the Scriptures. I acknowledge that Jesus
is indeed God. I rejoice in the truth of His divine nature,
and I celebrate His supernatural birth that brought
salvation to the world. Thank you for making me a
partaker of your divine life, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

HIS EXTRAORDINARY LIFE
And there are also many other things
which Jesus did, the which, if they
should be written every one, I suppose
that even the world itself could not
contain the books that should be written.
Amen (John 21:25).

T he life of Jesus was an unending stream of

the miraculous and the supernatural. It was an
extraordinary life, marked by countless acts of divine power
and compassion. The Bible provides us with a glimpse of
this remarkable life.
John 20:30-31, for example, tells us, “And many other
signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples,
which are not written in this book: But these are
written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ,
the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life
through his name.” The purpose of the recorded miracles
is clear: to inspire faith in Jesus as the Christ, the Son of
God, and to bring life to those who believe in His Name.
Yet, what we read in the Scriptures is only a fraction of
what Jesus accomplished. John further explains, “Jesus
34
did many other things as well. If every one of them
were written down, I suppose that even the whole
world would not have room for the books that would
be written” (John 21:25 NIV). This statement conveys the
limitless nature of His divine ministry. The Word of God
does not exaggerate.
The sheer magnitude of His miraculous works, signs
and wonders was beyond human documentation. His
presence on earth was characterized by countless miracles,
healings, teachings and demonstrations of the divine power
of God. The life of Jesus remains unparalleled, a testimony
to His deity and the limitless expression of God's love and
power through Him.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for revealing to me the extraordinary
life of Jesus. His life on earth was a testimony of your
divine nature and power. I acknowledge His deity and
celebrate His works that continue to inspire faith and
transform lives even today, for He’s indeed the same
yesterday, today, and forever. I walk in the reality of His
divine life, manifesting His glory and power today, in
Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THE REMARKABLE DEATH OF JESUS
And when the centurion, which stood
over against him, saw that he so cried
out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly
this man was the Son of God
(Mark 15:39).

T he death of Jesus was extraordinary and filled

with supernatural events that also confirmed His
deity. After being falsely accused, arrested, and crucified,
Jesus hung on the Cross while the chief priests, scribes,
and elders mocked Him (Matthew 27:42-43). Even the
two thieves crucified alongside Him joined in the mockery
(Matthew 27:44, Mark 15:32).
Then, from the sixth hour (noon) to the ninth hour (3
p.m.), darkness covered the whole earth. This supernatural
darkness lasted for three hours, signifying something
beyond the natural realm. At about the ninth hour, Jesus
cried out with a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?”
which means, “...My God, my God, why hast thou
forsaken me?” (Matthew 27:46).
This was the moment when the sins of the whole
world were laid upon Jesus. The Father, who is too holy
to behold sin (Habakuk 1:13), turned His back, and Jesus,
who had never been separated from the Father, cried out in
anguish. This separation was the cup Jesus prayed about
in the Garden of Gethsemane when He said, “...O my
Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me…”
(Matthew 26:39).
It was not death He dreaded but separation from
36
the Father, which was a result of Him becoming sin for
humanity. The Bible says, “For he hath made him to be
sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made
the righteousness of God in him” (2 Corinthians 5:21).
Then, with a loud voice, He said, “...Father, into thy hands
I commend my spirit...” (Luke 23:46).
Jesus commanded His own death. He consciously and
deliberately handed over His spirit to the Father. Jesus had
earlier declared, “Therefore doth my Father love me,
because I lay down my life, that I might take it again…I
have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it
again...” (John 10:17-18).
When Jesus yielded up the ghost, the veil of the temple
was torn in two from top to bottom, signifying the removal of
the barrier between God and humanity, granting us access
to the Father’s presence. Even the centurion overseeing
the crucifixion, upon witnessing how Jesus died, declared,
“...Truly this man was the Son of God” (Mark 15:39).
The manner of His death testified of His divinity. Jesus’
death was no ordinary death. It was the ultimate sacrifice
that brought salvation to all mankind.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the death of Jesus whose
blood was the propitiation for sins. I rejoice in the
finished work of Christ, knowing that He laid down His life
for me and took it up again in victory. I live triumphantly,
enjoying the benefits of His sacrificial love, now and
always. Amen.

THE TRUE GOD AND ETERNAL LIFE

And we know that the Son of God is come,

and hath given us an understanding, that
we may know him that is true, and we are
in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus
Christ. This is the true God, and eternal
life (1 John 5:20).

T he Lord Jesus Christ is the true God and eternal life.

That, indeed, is who the Messiah was supposed
to be. Generations of prophets foretold His coming, and
when Jesus came and declared Himself the Christ—God
manifested in human form—many rejected Him, accusing
Him of blasphemy.
But He was right. Titus 2:13-14 NKJV refers to Him
as our great God and Saviour who gave Himself for us:
“looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing
of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave
Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every
lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special
people, zealous for good works.” No religious leader
matches these credentials but our Lord Jesus Christ.
All the leaders of various religions died and remained
dead. Only Jesus Christ resurrected and ascended to
heaven alive. It’s only His Name that has power to cast out
devils, heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and raise the dead.
Furthermore, the remission of sins is only possible
through Jesus Christ. Acts 13:38-39 NKJV says,
“Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that
38
through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness
of sins; and by Him everyone who believes is justified
from all things from which you could not be justified
by the law of Moses.” 1 John 5:11-12 NKJV says, “And
this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal
life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son
has life; he who does not have the Son of God does
not have life.”
Jesus is the only one to give His life for all humanity;
He gave His divine life so you could have eternal life. Now,
because you’ve received Him, your natural human life
has been supplanted by the God-life; you’re now born of
God: “But as many as received him, to them gave he
power to become the sons of God, even to them that
believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood,
nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but
of God" (John 1:12-13). He gave us eternal life because
He’s Himself eternal life. Jesus is the true God and eternal
life. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the revelation of the deity
of Jesus Christ and the power in His Name. I live in the
consciousness of His authority, exercising dominion
over the forces of darkness and manifesting the victory
of Christ in all that I do. I declare that my faith is effective,
and through His Name, I enjoy unending success and
righteousness, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

DIVINE HEALTH:
YOUR HERITAGE IN CHRIST
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou
mayest prosper and be in health, even as
thy soul prospereth (3 John 1:2).

T oo often, people find themselves trapped in a cycle

of illness and health issues. One week they’re in
the hospital, and the next, they're at the pharmacy, seeking
medications for one ailment or the other. This shouldn’t
be your experience as a child of God. Don’t allow such in
your life.
Refuse to allow Satan toy with your health. He's testing
you. The moment Satan sees that you keep yielding to
minor symptoms of sickness, he strikes with a heavier blow.
But you have the power to put an end to this. Remember
what Jesus said to Simon Peter: “...Simon, Simon,
behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may
sift you as wheat: But I have prayed for thee, that thy
faith fail not...” (Luke 22:31-32).
Notice that the Lord didn’t say He prayed that Satan
wouldn’t test Peter, but rather, that Peter’s faith wouldn’t
fail. Your faith is the victory that overcomes the world.
Today, you can settle any health issue once and for all by
saying, “Enough is enough! I refuse to live a life of sickness
and weakness. I lay hold of divine health because I have
40
eternal life. I enjoy divine health because that’s the life I
have in Christ.”
While as a result of ignorance you might have tolerated
sickness in the past, it should no longer have a place
in your life now that you know the truth. Some people
mistakenly try to "sleep off" their ailments. But this is not
the way. Don't ignore the pain or discomfort, hoping that
only “some rest” will resolve it. No. Use your faith-filled
words to kill it!
Remember, your faith is the victory that overcomes the
world and its debilitating influences, including sicknesses,
diseases, pains and everything of darkness. And you’re
to always vocalize your faith. Use words; your tongue is
your tool for control; use it to rebuke the ailment. Use it to
cut out any infirmity, growth or anomaly from your body.
Speak health and life over yourself. Then, you can rest,
assured that your words have established your victory. God
has empowered you to control your circumstances with
your declarations. Speak life, health, and victory always.

CONFESSION
Dear Father, I thank you for the gift of divine health, my
inheritance in Christ Jesus. I’m healthy and strong, and
I walk in the fullness of the divine life. Every fibre of my
being is inundated with eternal life. Hallelujah!

HIS NAME REIGNS SUPREME
And his name through faith in his name
hath made this man strong, whom ye see
and know: yea, the faith which is by him
hath given him this perfect soundness in
the presence of you all (Acts 3:16).

T he authority of the Name of Jesus is unparalleled.

If He were an ordinary man, His name would have
no power. But there’s power in His Name. The book of Acts
shows us how the disciples used His Name to cast out
demons, heal the sick, and perform miracles. His Name
is not just a title; it carries authority and power.
In Acts 3, Luke tells us about the miraculous healing of
a certain man who was crippled from birth and laid at the
gate of the temple called Beautiful. The miracle attracted
the attention of a large crowd, and Peter, seizing the
moment, addressed the crowd, explaining the source of
the healing to be the Name of Jesus.
He said, “And his name through faith in his name
hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know:
yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this
perfect soundness in the presence of you all” (Acts

42
3:16). He emphasized that it was through faith in the Name
of Jesus that the man was made strong and restored to
health.
The authority and power in the Name of Jesus
demonstrate His deity. His Name carries the fullness of His
power, His life, and His authority. No wonder the Bible tells
us, “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and
given him a name which is above every name: That at
the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things
in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the
earth” (Philippians 2:9-10).
His Name reigns supreme over all things. Use it to cast
out devils, heal the sick, and walk in perpetual victory. Live
in the fullness of His power and authority today through
the dominion and majesty of His Name. Amen.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the authority vested in the
Name of Jesus. That wonderful Name reigns supreme
over all things, and through faith in His Name, I cast
out devils, heal the sick, and walk in perpetual victory.
I live in the fullness of His power and authority today.
Thank you Lord, for the power and majesty of the Name
of Jesus. Amen.

SUBJECT YOUR BODY TO
HIS DIVINE INFLUENCE
But if the Spirit of him that raised up
Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that
raised up Christ from the dead shall also
quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit
that dwelleth in you (Romans 8:11).

O ne way to subject your body to the divine influence

of the Holy Spirit is through praying in the Spirit. It
improves your health or keeps you in divine health. That’s
because through speaking in tongues you activate the
latent power of the spirit.
Recall what we read in our opening scripture; it says
if the Holy Spirit takes up His abode in you, He will vitalize
or make alive your previously death-doomed body. In other
words, whereas your body was going in the direction of
death prior to receiving the Holy Ghost, now that you’ve
received the Holy Ghost, your journey is life unto life. Glory
to God!
Let’s read how the Lord Jesus demonstrated it.
Luke 9:29 says, “And as he prayed, the fashion of his
countenance was altered, and his raiment was white
and glistering.” I love this. His physical countenance was
altered as He prayed. What was happening? The power
of the Holy Ghost manifested in His physical body and
impacted on His clothes to make them glitter.
That’s the same experience He expects you to have
when you pray: Currents of spiritual electricity coursing
through your being! It’s the work of the Holy Spirit. How
can you pray that way and experience sickness in your
44
body? Every one of us who has received the Holy Spirit
has this power within us.
We have to become acquainted with this inner power,
the inner force of the Spirit of God inside us. Acknowledge
this work of the Spirit in your life; that's one of the keys. By
acknowledging that work of the Spirit, you give yourself
over to it. The more you do this, the less problems you’ll
have with your physical body, because you're getting your
body supercharged with the Holy Ghost.
There’re things you may have observed in your body,
maybe some pain, some abnormal situation, some growth
or inflammation; the more you subject your body to the
influence of the Holy Spirit through prayer, the more those
things pass out of your body. The Holy Ghost sanctifies
your body; He perambulates your body and makes manifest
the life of Christ in your physical body. Think about that!
This is God's will, plan, and purpose for you: The life of
Christ manifest in your body—not only in your spirit and in
your soul. That means no growth is allowed in your body;
no inflammations, no abrasions, no rashes. Hallelujah!
Put this to work and you’ll live perpetually in divine health.
Blessed be God!
CONFESSION
The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives
in me and has made my body alive. The life of Christ is
manifest in every fiber of my being. My body is sanctified,
energized and preserved by the power of the Holy Spirit.
I live above sickness, disease and infirmities. Divine
health is my permanent experience. Glory to God!

LIVE VICTORIOUSLY EVERY DAY
For whatsoever is born of God
overcometh the world: and this is the
victory that overcometh the world, even
our faith (1 John 5:4).

Y our life is your responsibility, and through the

Word of God, you have the power to create the
circumstances of your life. As a child, your parents were
responsible for the situations surrounding your life. For
instance, when Jesus was born, He was placed in a
manger, not because He chose to be, but because that
was where His parents put Him.
On another occasion, the angel didn’t instruct Jesus
but spoke to Joseph, saying, “...take the young child and
his mother and flee into Egypt...” (Matthew 2:13). Jesus
didn’t make that decision; He was just carried along as a
baby. Even as He grew, He remained subject to Joseph
and His mother Mary.
However, when He came of age, He began making
His own decisions, just like Moses who, when he came to
years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter
(Hebrews 11:24). In the same way, you must come to the
point where you decide and determine the circumstances
46
of your life. Choose to live in victory no matter what.
Decide you’re going to be a success at every level of
your life and in everything you do because that’s the life
you’ve been given in Christ. Don’t allow your environment
dictate how you live. You’re not a victim of the economy
or economics of this world; you’re the seed of Abraham,
a victor always.
2 Corinthians 2:14 says, “Now thanks be unto God,
which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and
maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us
in every place.” We read in our opening verse, “For
whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world….”
You’re born of God and have overcome the world. You’re
victorious in Christ. Therefore, choose to live victoriously
every day. Live above the systems of this world.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the power of your Word, and
your Spirit that enables me to live victoriously every day
above the systems of this world. I’m in charge and in
control of my life and circumstances; I live by faith and
create my own world of success and prosperity in line
with your perfect will, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

ACT ON THE WORD TO
EFFECT CHANGES
....Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak
unto the children of Israel, that they go
forward: But lift thou up thy rod, and
stretch out thine hand over the sea, and
divide it: and the children of Israel shall
go on dry ground through the midst of
the sea (Exodus 14:15-16).

S ome Christians experience a certain kind of

frustration in their lives because they fail to act
on the Word. They pray and try to “persuade” God to do
what they are to do. For example, they want Him to change
a situation He already gave us power and authority to
change.
Take for example the case of Moses and the children
of Israel as they were trapped between the Red Sea and
Pharaoh's advancing army. They cried out in fear. But
Moses reassured them of God's salvation and began to
cry out to God to do something. However, God urgently
interrupted Moses with the words we read in our opening
scripture above. God said to Moses, “You do something;
stretch forth your hand and divide the sea.”
In obedience, Moses stretched out his hand over
the sea, spoke words, and the Red Sea parted. God's
power was activated the moment Moses acted on His

instruction and spoke in faith. Until Moses did something,
the miracle didn’t happen. This teaches us that unless
you take action to change your circumstances, they may
remain unchanged.
So, don’t seek to persuade God to act when you’re the
one to exercise authority and take action according to His
Word. God has already done His part by giving you His
Word and the liberty to act on it. For example, He said in
1 Corinthians 2:12-13, “Now we have received, not the
spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that
we might know the things that are freely given to us
of God, Which things also we speak…"
Notice the principle: You have to speak the things that
have been freely given to you by God. If you don’t say it,
it’ll not work. Your faith-filled words, spoken in alignment
with the Word, activate His power in your life. So, speak
God’s Word over your life and see His power manifest in
your behalf. The blessings and results are for those who act
on the Word, the doers of the Word. James 1:22, “But be
ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving
your own selves.”
CONFESSION
I’m a doer of the Word, and my faith-filled words activate
the power of God in my life. As I act on the Word, I
experience victory, transformation, and the fullness of
God’s blessings today. Hallelujah!

DISCARD DREAMS LIKE CHAFF
For as many as are led by the Spirit of
God, they are the sons of God
(Romans 8:14).

T he prophet Jeremiah, speaking under the

inspiration of the Spirit, delivered a divine
declaration in Jeremiah 23:28: "The prophet that hath a
dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word,
let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to
the wheat? saith the LORD."
Here, Jeremiah draws a sharp distinction between
dreams and the Word. He acknowledges that some
prophets may claim to have dreams, but those who truly
possess God's Word are obligated to deliver it faithfully
and without alteration. Then, he says, "What is the chaff
to the wheat?"
Dreams are compared to God’s Word as chaff is to
wheat. Chaff is the worthless husk separated from grain
during threshing. And what do you do with chaff? You
discard it. That’s what you need to do with dreams: discard
them!
50
 While dreams were one way God communicated with
His people in the Old Testament (e.g., Joseph in Genesis
37:5-10, Daniel in Daniel 7:1), from the moment the Holy
Spirit came at Pentecost (Acts 2), the New Testament has
no record of God using dreams as a means of revelation
or guidance for His children.
Those who continue to claim they are led by dreams
are living an Old Testament life and ministry; they’re
operating where God has already moved away from.
Irrespective of your experiences, God’s way of ministering
to His people in the Church age is by the Spirit, visions
and the Word; not dreams.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the Holy Spirit who leads and
guides me in all things. My steps are ordered by you,
and my life is directed by your Word; therefore, I walk in
truth, wisdom and the reality of your divine guidance, in
Jesus’ Name. Amen.

GOD IS WORKING IN YOU

Being confident of this very thing, that he

which hath begun a good work in you will
perform it until the day of Jesus Christ
(Philippians 1:6).

L ive your life every day, conscious of the reality that

the Lord is at work in you, and that He’s faithful to
complete the good work He’s started in you! That means
no need to struggle with whatever assignment He’s
committed to your hands. He’ll see to it that you complete
it gloriously. All you need is to rely on His divine power
working in you.
It brings to mind what Paul, by the Spirit, tells us in
Philippians 2:13, “For it is God which worketh in you
both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” This means
that it’s God Himself who is at work in you, making you
willing and giving you the ability to do His good pleasure.
He’s actively working in you, inspiring and enabling you
to fulfil His divine purpose.
How could you fail when God is working in you? You’re
His operational headquarters here on earth, functioning
by His divine ability. You’re a success because He is at
work in you. His divine presence in you ensures that you
accomplish His purpose. Hallelujah! This means you can

52
actively win souls in large numbers into the Kingdom, the
Lord working in and with you.
Consider what the angel of the Lord said to Gideon
in Judges 6:14: “...Go in this thy might, and thou shalt
save Israel from the hand of the Midianites....” God was
telling Gideon that what he had was sufficient. The same
applies to you. What you have is enough. Christ in you is
enough. God at work in you is enough.
You can call forth men and women from the north,
south, east and west of your city into salvation in your
intercession. They’ll converge unto you because God is
working in you. You’re a burning and a shining light. You’re
burning with the fire of the Holy Ghost, and that fire will
attract many into the Kingdom. The hand of God is mighty
upon you; therefore, you’re increasing in grace, strength,
and impact.

PRAYER
Dear Father, your power is at work in me, causing me
to accomplish great things for the Kingdom. I am a
burning and a shining light, a soul winner, and a beacon
of your glory. Your Spirit is mighty in me, and through
me, many are drawn into the Kingdom. Thank you for
the unstoppable spread of the Gospel in the nations of
the world, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

TAKE “A HOLY GHOST DOSE”
EVERY DAY
Ye are of God, little children, and have
overcome them: because greater is he
that is in you, than he that is in the world
(1 John 4:4).

O ne of the ways to keep your body permanently

in health is praying in the Holy Spirit; giving your
physical body frequent Holy Ghost doses. The Bible says,
“...If the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the
dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the
dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his
Spirit that dwelleth in you” (Romans 8:11). This means
the Holy Ghost vitalizes, energizes and rejuvenates your
body.
As you pray in tongues, the Holy Spirit will stir up in
you the Word of God that’s in your spirit. Soon enough
you’ll find that you’re pacing the floor, declaring, “I am of
God; I’m born of God; the greater One lives in me; He
permeates every fibre of my being, every bone of my body,
and every cell of my blood. He fills my head, my hands, and
my feet. He perambulates my heart, my blood, my lungs,
my kidneys, my eyes. I am saturated with God! Hallelujah!"
Do this today and every other day; speak in tongues
54
with your mind focused on the power of God coursing
through your being. Then keep declaring, “My body is
invigorated with supernatural strength, and I am energized
by the power of the Holy Spirit. Sickness has no power
over me because I have taken hold of eternal life. I am not
moved by symptoms or circumstances because my faith is
the victory that overcomes the world. I live in victory every
day. Hallelujah!”
Stir up yourself in the Holy Ghost like this, speaking
in tongues and declaring God’s Word until your whole
body vibrates with the power of God and your spiritual
atmosphere is charged with divine energy. That way,
you’ve regulated things in the realm of the Spirit. It makes
no difference whatever may be happening around you or
the sickness that may be plaguing others; you’re unmoved
because you’re strengthened and energized by the Holy
Ghost, filled with divine might and ability to dominate the
forces of darkness and tame circumstances.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the Holy Spirit who vitalizes
my body and saturates my entire being with divine power.
I’m strengthened and energized, filled with might and
ability. I walk in health, dominion and victory every day,
full of power, and full of glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FASTING IS IMPORTANT
And I set my face unto the Lord God, to
seek by prayer and supplications, with
fasting… (Daniel 9:3).

T he Bible talks about those who served the Lord

with fasting and prayers night and day. We’re to
emulate their faith, gain from their examples, and carry
on the same practice in our walk with God. For example,
in Luke 2:36-37, we read about Anna, a prophetess, who
literally lived in the temple: “And there was one Anna,
a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of
Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an
husband seven years from her virginity; And she was
a widow of about fourscore and four years, which
departed not from the temple, but served God with
fastings and prayers night and day.”
Also, in Acts 13, Paul and Barnabas, along with other
leaders, dedicated themselves to fasting and prayer:
“Now there were in the church that was at Antioch
certain prophets and teachers.... As they ministered
to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate
me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have
called them. And when they had fasted and prayed,
and laid their hands on them, they sent them away”
(Acts 13:1-3).
In Acts 14:23, Paul and Barnabas continued this same
56
culture: “And when they had ordained them elders
in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they
commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.”
In fact, Paul, in 2 Corinthians 11, while enumerating several
credentials of his ministry and apostleship, made specific
reference to fasting: "In weariness and painfulness, in
watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often,
in cold and nakedness" (2 Corinthians 11:27).
Furthermore, the Lord Jesus Himself set the ultimate
example of fasting as recorded in Matthew 4:2: "And
when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he
was afterward an hungred." This was a time of intense
spiritual preparation before He began His public ministry.
These and other examples in Scripture establish a
precedence for us: we’re to serve the Lord in fasting as
often as it’s required since we have the same ministry and
operate by the same Spirit. It’s one of the ways to maintain
inspiration and receive guidance to effectively carry out that
which the Lord has committed to our hands. Glory to God!

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the examples set before me
in your Word. I walk in the same path of faith, discipline,
and devotion, serving through prayer and fasting, and
fulfilling my calling with diligence and power. Thank you
for the divine culture of your Word that shapes my life
and ensures my continual victory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

PLAN YOUR PRAYER
Don't shoot off your mouth, or speak
before you think. Don't be too quick
to tell God what you think he wants to
hear… (Ecclesiastes 5:2 MSG).

W hen it comes to prayer, you must realize the

importance of planning your prayer or your
praying. Prayer isn’t something you do half-heartedly; it
requires reverence, understanding and careful preparation.
Ecclesiastes 5:2 in the KJV says, “Be not rash with
thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter
anything before God: for God is in heaven, and thou
upon earth: therefore let thy words be few.”
When we pray to the Lord, we must do so with purpose
and clarity. Planning your prayer means recognizing
the greatness of God and acknowledging that He is the
Almighty. It involves preparing your heart, setting your mind
on the things you want to discuss with Him, and articulating
them with precision and sincerity.
Recall again what He said in the latter part of
Ecclesiastes 5:2, “...let thy words be few”; that means
summarize your prayers. It reminds of what the Lord Jesus
said in Matthew 6:7, “But when ye pray, use not vain
repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they
58
shall be heard for their much speaking.” But how can
you summarize your prayer if you haven’t planned it?
This doesn’t imply minimizing the time you spend in
prayer but rather being deliberate, purposeful and Spirit-
led. Thoughtless words and hasty utterances have no
place before the King of Glory. Plan your words. When
you prepare your prayers, you’re actively engaging your
mind and spirit to align with God’s will. You’re positioning
yourself to speak words that are filled with faith and power.
It’ll help to always take a moment to write down the
things you want to talk to the Lord about. Think about
the areas of your life where you desire His guidance,
intervention and blessings. Also, consider the thoughts and
insights He might have already stirred in your heart. Then,
you speak in tongues. Through speaking in tongues, you
articulate divine mysteries and gain insight into realities
beyond human comprehension.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the privilege of prayer and
for the wisdom of your Word. I pray with reverence and
purpose, guided by your Spirit to speak words that are
filled with faith and divine insight, making my words in
prayer effective. Thank you for the assurance of answers,
for you hear me always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

PRAY IN TONGUES CONSISTENTLY
He that speaketh in an unknown tongue
edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth
edifieth the church (1 Corinthians 14:4).

P raying in the Spirit is a powerful spiritual exercise

that produces remarkable results within you. One
of the things God designed to keep you healthy, sound,
and strong is prayer, especially praying in the Spirit. When
you speak in tongues, you edify yourself; it’s like charging a
battery. Your spirit is charged, energized and strengthened,
enabling you to truly serve God.
The Apostle Paul revealed something profound in
Romans 1:9, saying, “For God is my witness, whom
I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son....”
This means we serve God with our spirits. Therefore,
for your spirit to function effectively, it must be charged,
strengthened and continually refreshed. Praying in tongues
achieves this.
The human spirit can be weak or strong. To strengthen
your spirit, you must spend time praying in the Holy Ghost.
As you do, your spirit is built up and fortified: “But you,
beloved, build yourselves up [founded] on your most
holy faith [make progress, rise like an edifice higher
and higher], praying in the Holy Spirit” (Jude 1:20
AMPC).
God has His role, but you also have yours. The Holy
Spirit is your Helper; He doesn’t do the work for you but
works through you. Paul, in Ephesians 3:14-16 tells us,
“For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of
60
our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in
heaven and earth is named, That he would grant you,
according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened
with might by his Spirit in the inner man.”
The term “strengthened with might” refers to being
infused with miracle-working ability by the Holy Spirit in
your inner man. Paul understood this truth deeply, which
is why he made a remarkable statement in 1 Corinthians
14:18, “I thank my God, I speak with tongues more
than ye all.” The Corinthian church was known for their
enthusiasm for speaking in tongues, yet Paul stated that
he spoke in tongues more than all of them.
Paul’s consistency in praying in tongues was key
to his continuous progress, victories and extraordinary
accomplishments. It wasn’t something he did occasionally;
it was a lifestyle. If you desire consistent growth, success,
and advancement, then praying in the Spirit must be
something you do consistently. It’ll help you make consistent
progress as you experience continuous increase in grace
and victory after victory. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the blessing of praying in the
Spirit through which I build up and strengthen my spirit
to serve you effectively. Even now, my spirit is attuned
to your guidance and direction, and I walk in perpetual
victory, progress and ever-increasing grace, in Jesus’
Name. Amen.

KEEP FILLING UP THE CLOUDS
If the clouds be full of rain, they empty
themselves upon the earth...
(Ecclesiastes 11:3).

T here’s something you need to understand about

prayer and how certain types of prayers work.
Some prayers must be accumulated before they start
producing results. They must be built up. The Bible says,
“If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves
upon the earth....”
You don’t just pray and then leave off for two or three
days before you pray again. No! Every day, you heap
prayer upon prayer. Every day, you add some more. And
then, you add some more, and some more, until you reach
the climax where the results burst forth like a gusher,
blowing the lid open.
That’s when things start happening; it’s like a harvest
of prayers. That harvest can continue for a long time.
However, that doesn’t mean you stop praying during that
time. No. There are always other things to pray about.
This kind of prayer is deeply spiritual and involves much

62
praying in the spirit. Every day, you’re filling up the cloud.
Sometimes, the Spirit of God can lead you to fast for
a certain number of days because He wants you to keep
filling up your cloud. It’s not so much about staying away
from food; that’s not what He’s getting at. Rather, it’s about
focusing your attention on the Spirit and having the kind
of meditation and prayer that conditions your spirit for the
work He wants to do in you, for you or through you.
So, learn to persevere in prayer as the Bible says:
“Pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17). Keep
storing up deposits of prayers in your prayer-cloud, and
as the Word declares, “If the clouds be full of rain, they
empty themselves upon the earth.”

CONFESSION
As I pray consistently in the spirit, I’m filling up the
clouds in anticipation of a harvest of answers to my
prayers. My spirit is conditioned to know and walk in
God’s perfect will, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THE GLORIOUS ASCENSION OF JESUS
And it came to pass, while he blessed
them, he was parted from them, and
carried up into heaven (Luke 24:51).

T he Ascension of Jesus is the biggest event to ever

happen in this world. Acts 1:9 gives us a detailed
account of how it happened: “And when he had spoken
these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and
a cloud received him out of their sight.” His disciples
were looking at Him as He ascended. They were watching
Him go up into the clouds.
Jesus didn’t just suddenly vanish; His disciples were
there, watching Him as He levitated. If you were there that
day, how would you have described such an experience?
You would have been so shocked; you might not have been
able to speak for days. That’s exactly what happened to
the disciples.
What they saw was the proof of something Jesus had
told them earlier in John 6. When He was preaching, some
of His disciples were offended when He said, “...my flesh
is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed” (John
6:55). His words were hard for many to accept, and as a
result, many of His disciples stopped following Him.
Jesus then asked the twelve disciples, “...Doth this
64
offend you? What and if ye shall see the Son of man
ascend up where he was before?” (John 6:61-62). And
there was no response. But eventually, right before their
eyes, it happened. They saw those words come to pass.
What they witnessed was too weighty for words.
They had already been having difficulty convincing
people of His resurrection. They were called liars for
declaring Jesus was alive. And now, they had witnessed
His ascension. It wasn’t like Elijah who was taken up by a
whirlwind with a chariot of fire. This was different.
The churches, Christians, and preachers haven’t
emphasized the Ascension of Jesus enough. We often
read about it and assume everyone understands it. But
this was the biggest event that ever occurred on Earth.
The resurrection is crucial because our salvation is based
on it, but the Ascension is proof of something even more
remarkable: His supreme authority, dominion, lordship and
eternal reign. Blessed be God.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the magnificent ascension of
the Lord Jesus Christ, which demonstrated His supreme
authority, dominion, lordship and eternal reign. I rejoice
that I am seated with Him in heavenly places, far above
all principalities and powers. Thank you for the victory
and authority I have in His Name. Amen.

OUR UNIQUE ASSIGNMENTS
IN THE MILLENNIUM
Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness,
and princes shall rule in judgment. And
a man shall be as an hiding place from
the wind, and a covert from the tempest;
as rivers of water in a dry place, as the
shadow of a great rock in a weary land
(Isaiah 32:1-2).

O ur theme scripture is prophetic about the

Millennium. The latter part alludes to the unique
role we (the Church) would be playing in the millennial
reign, when Israel takes center stage. The millennial reign
of Christ is not for the Church. It’s for Israel. So, what are
we, the Church, going to be doing then?
We're going to be carrying out angelic assignments.
Our role at the millennial reign of Christ is very different
from what a lot of people think; it’s going to be much like
what the angels do today in ministering for us. In that
day, the Jews will walk in the Millennial blessings that
characterize the life of the saints which we have now,
while we, the Church, will function like the angels, arriving
suddenly, disappearing, moving to specific places to carry
out angelic ministrations as directed by God.
It's going to be super exciting; it’s another class of
ministry. We're not going to be dealing with people, trying
66 To keep getting Rhapsody of Realities, order on

to carry out physical administrative functions as priests,
no! The priests of those days shall be the Jews. But until
then, in these last days, in these present moments, what
does God expect of us?
He has given us a Kingdom to run, and He expects us
to run it for Him effectively in this time. It has taken almost
2,000 years to arrive at this point, and the Lord is expectant.
James 5:7-8 says, “…Behold, the husbandman waiteth
for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long
patience for it…Be ye also patient; stablish your
hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.”
What we just read gives us a vivid picture: God is
waiting for the precious fruit of the earth, the souls of men.
This is what He expects in these closing moments of the
Church age, a great influx of souls from all nations. So, win
souls like never before. The fields are ripe with harvest,
and you’re the labourer, thrust into the fields by the Lord
to bring in the end time harvest.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of serving you
and fulfilling your purpose in these last days. I yield
myself completely to your plans, prepared and ready to
carry out your assignments with diligence, excellence,
and joy. I am effective in running the Kingdom you have
given to us, bringing in the precious fruit of the earth as
we prepare for the coming of the Lord. Amen.

 “The Infilling Of The Holy Ghost”
For a long time, I tried to speak in tongues but couldn’t. This
persisted until I came across Rhapsody of Realities and read
a teaching on “How to Increase Your Spiritual Vocabulary.”
My heart leapt for joy because I realized I could start speaking
in tongues just as others could expand their vocabulary. As
instructed in the devotional, I began to listen to the words in
my spirit, and thereafter, I burst out, speaking in tongues!

“Healed Of Lung Cancer”

Thirty years of ministry prepared me for many things, but it
wasn't until I encountered Rhapsody of Realities that I truly
grasped the extent of my authority in Christ. This knowledge
became critical when a member of my church was diagnosed
with cancer in both lungs, and the doctors offered no hope.
When I learned of his condition, I acted on the knowledge I
gained from studying Rhapsody of Realities. I prayed fervently
and commanded the cancer to dry up. He received a miraculous
healing in both lungs! Hallelujah!

“Healed Of Excruciating Neck Pain”

For years, my mother endured excruciating neck pain and
became used to the suffering despite being a Christian.
However, everything changed when I received my first copy
of Rhapsody of Realities. As I diligently studied its teachings,
it dawned on me that the pain is not God's will for her life.
With this newfound understanding, I returned home and prayed
for my mother. Days later, she called, overjoyed to share her
incredible testimony – The pain was gone. She was completely
healed!
