SUBDUE THEM

/0 Comments/in /by

I told the story of my friend who got married into a family where most of her husband’s siblings were into witchcraft in a couple of my books. Her husband’s junior sister vowed to kill her but she was subdued by a higher power.

Reading Hebrews 11 this afternoon,  I was thrilled by verse *33. It says, Who through faith,  subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises,….*

We belong to the family of faith and we too can subdue kingdoms. Life is spiritual. Zechariah 1:21 talks about horns that scattered Judah so that nobody lifts their heads. Is it not like that in many places?

There are some families that you will see and everybody is stranded and discoloured.  You pick appointment in certain offices and the horns are actively working to keep everybody small. Even in certain ministries. 

Please take stock.  Ensure that you subdue every power that is out to subdue you.  The Word of God tells us  that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.  May the God of heaven open our eyes to see the invisible this new week in Jesus name.  May He enable us to subdue all contrary powers that are out to subdue us in Jesus name.  Have a beautiful new week in Jesus name.

THANK GOD FOR FRUITS

/0 Comments/in /by

I love food. Have you ever thought about life without food? Obviously, food is one of the delights of life. May the God that created food be eternally praised in Jesus name.
Fruits are the icing in my cake when it comes to edibles. I see them as foods that are prepared and spiced by our Maker Himself. Who else could have programmed so much sweetness into mangoes and oranges. Who could have put water inside coconut with no external opening?  Our God honestly deserves our praise continually. 
However,  it is important to note that fruits are sweet only when they are matured and ripe. It is obviously a bad idea to feast on oranges or mangoes before they are ripe. They are not only bitter but will cause your teeth to be set on edge. 
*Galatians 5:22-23 says,  But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance :against such there is no law*
Standing in my kitchen in Caracas one evening, I looked out of the window and saw a mango tree with so many tiny seeds and the Teacher within me began a lecture. “As long as the branches stay connected to the tree,  those fruits will grow, mature and bless the world with their nutrients and sweetness”. 
As children of the Most High God,  we all have the fruit of the Spirit. How ripe is yours? Do you bless the wold with your sweetness or you are acidic?  
As branches of the True Vine, John 15 tells us to remain firmly connected. It tells us that without Him,  we can do nothing. 
Jesus,  as our perfect example, went about doing good. May this be our testimony. May the God of heaven use us to bless  our world in Jesus name. Have a beautiful day.

COMMAND THE MORNING

/0 Comments/in /by

COMMAND THE MORNING 
Sister Cindy Trimm is no doubt a huge blessing to the Body of Christ. I heard her give an exposition on *Job 38:12 which says Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days and caused the dayspring to know his place….*
Reading through the book of Job,  you will realize that the trials and all the problems he had were rooted in a discussion that took place between two spiritual entities.  That has not changed much. The only difference in our time are the spiritual beings involved. How many businesses are there today that are wrecked as a result of discussions in covens?  How many wombs are tied up by spiritual entities? How about failed marriages? What of unnecessary deaths? Years ago,  a young house maid threw the baby she was employed to take care of down from the third floor of a building in Aba.  That act would obviously have had  its root in a discussion among spirit beings. 
Our blessing in our dispensation is that the Lord Jesus Christ has come.  By His death on the Cross of Calvary,  He has given us the power to  command our mornings. 
*1 John 3:8 says,… For this purpose,  the son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil* HALLELUJAH!!!! 
As if that is not enough,  *Revelation 12:11 says, And they overcame him by the blood of the lamb and by the Word of their testimony….*
Please put the Word in your mouth and scatter all plans of darkness against your life. We can stop the operation of negative spiritual entities against our lives as we wake up each day to command our mornings.  Never forget that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but they are mighty in stopping the works of darkness against our lives.  Have a beautiful day and remain richly blessed.

ORDAINED FOR INCREASE

/0 Comments/in /by


As the school bus left after picking my son  on Friday,  I began to think. The young man behind the steering had picked two students before he got to my house that early. Who knows when he woke up?  Dear Lord,  please bless all the young men who are making a living through honest means.
A dear sister had sent me a video clip where our police apprehended a lot of young people for various crimes ranging from armed robberies to kidnapping and more. I watched the young lady among them as she was crying and asking for mercy. How can people think that they can thrive for long doing the wrong thing? You may ask me of the ones who are looting our treasuries. All we see from outside are the big houses and cars but I can assure you that there can be no peace for the wicked. Scripture says so and it is settled in heaven forever. Of what use are possessions when there is no joy? 
*Job 8:7 says Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase* I took note of the word SHOULD in that scripture. It tells me that it is not automatic. What lessons can we learn from Job since we are told that he was a highly prosperous man. 
Job had godliness and the fear of the Lord. Beyond that,  he had products.  The word prosperity is vitally connected with productivity and the root word for productivity is the word PRODUCT.  Do you have any products to offer? What services can you render for the benefit of mankind? I am here to remind you this morning that scripture says we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. Our God not only gives wisdom for creativity but He also quickens wealth creating abilities.  However,  we need patience to nurture whatever He puts into our hands.  Be reminded that everything that is rooted in God starts small but spreads to the ends of the earth with time.  
Have a beautiful day and may the God of all creations stir up every dormant gift in you today in Jesus name. Every thing in you that had dried up as a result of demonic activities comes alive today in the wonderful name of Jesus Christ. You are blessed.

MEAT IN ABUNDANCE

/5 Comments/in /by

MEAT IN ABUNDANCE 
Abundance is a God word.  Scripture tells us that the LORD God planted a garden in the East of Eden where He placed Adam and Eve.  That garden had trees that were pleasant to the sight and good for food. It equally had a river that broke into four heads that watered the whole land.  It is important to point out that Eden had gold.  Not just gold but scripture says that the gold was good. It goes ahead to tell us that there were precious stones there including onyx stone. 
God is the author of abundance.  When He led Israel out of Egypt,  they went out with abundance of gold. When He gave them manna in the wilderness, everyone had enough. When Israel asked for water in the wilderness,  we are told from scriptures that the water gushed out. Gushing depicts abundance as we know. 

*Job 36:31 says..he giveth meat in abundance*. We know that meat refers to food. This tells me that it is not the plan of God that we should be in lack.  God did not plan that we eat what we see. In His program for us,  scripture says that He satisfies our mouth with good things. 
Where have we gone wrong as God’s people?  Why are so many kingdom people on the verge of starvation? 
*Job 36:11 says If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures*. This scripture spoke to me this morning. You see,  God cannot lie. If we are not spending our days in prosperity and our years in pleasures, we should look inwards. 
It is great to get acquainted with God. It is equally important to align our lives with His principles.  What have you done with seed sowing?,  hard work, meditation and more. Our God leads into green pastures but do we allow Him to lead us?  I told you that this scripture talked to me this morning. I was weighed by it and found wanting but it is my choice to rise up and get more compliant. How about you?
May it indeed be a beautiful weekend for you in Jesus name. This weekend,  we will hear the leading of God and by it usher in the abundance of all good things into our destinies in Jesus name.

FILLED WITH GOOD THINGS

FILLED WITH GOOD THINGS. 
Lord,  thank you so much for the abundance of all good things in my home I said one evening in Venezuela.  Where is the abundance asked my second daughter as she and her sister stopped their ‘gist’ to look at me. Did I have a good laugh? 
It takes the relatives of a person who is paying for oxygen in the hospital to know that air is not cheap. If you have ever stayed for a week in a home without water,  you will realize that life will practically grind to a halt should water fail. The truth is that there is abundance everywhere. 
We have heard of several youths who embarked on mission Europe through the Sahara dessert who never made it alive. The ones that survived the ordeal have a better appreciation of the abundance of water around us. 
*Job 22:18 says, Yet he filled their houses with good things but the counsel of the wicked is far from me*. 
Scripture says that our God quickens the dead and calls those things that be not as though they are. We are made in His image and should function like Him.  He is the God that sees potentials.  Never forget that He is the God of Genesis chapter one.  He was not intimidated by the darkness and formlessness He saw but rather said LET THERE BE LIGHT.  
Scripture says that wealth and riches are in the house of the righteous. Have you received the gift of righteousness and abundance of grace?  Then go ahead and declare that your home is filled with good things. I recently heard a man of God say that the problem of many is that they value tangible resources over the intangibles. Is there peace in your home?  That is a good thing. Do you have a song in your heart?  That is a good thing.  How about health and strength?  These intangibles are the foundation for all other good things.  
Please go ahead and declare that your home is filled with good things and it will be so for you in Jesus name.

PROMOTION WITHOUT PREPARATION

/0 Comments/in /by
ONLY GOD PROMOTES. BE HUMBLE!!

I heard a man of God tell how he sought God and received some empowering truths on wealth creation which he taught his members. Soon, young millionares began to spring up in his congregation. Nothing prepared him for the challenges that comes from wealth. “This is not the person I married, he/she has changed completely”. So many relationship problem erupted in many homes. That was when it dawn on him that it was not enough to be promoted. People should be prepared before their promotion comes.one glaring example of a man whose promotion came ingrained with destruction was Haman. It was when he was promoted in Esther chapter 3 that people began to bow to him and to give him reverence. Unfortunately for him, there was a Jew in his province who knew well to bow down to only Jehovah God. The monster of anger and pride that have been sleeping in his heart before his promotion woke up and drove him into ploting against the jews. How I wish he knew that nobody battles with the LORD of Host and prevails. He died ultimately leaving us an example that pride kills.

PRIDE IS A WEIGHT

When I went for a burial in my village a couple of month ago, it dawn on me how powerful the internet is. Don’t even be fooled by the likes you get in whatever post you post in social media. The World is seeing you. “So you are Ngozi Okure”?It is always important to know that the Almighty God is the reason why you can do anything well. He is the reason why you have whatever you have . Remove His grace from your life and your result will take a flight. Resist pride in all its forms and let Jesus be Lord in your life always. remain richly blessed and have a beautiful day.
