Psalms 92:1 (KJV) It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:

Anytime you are giving thanks to God you are doing a good thing. Giving thanks to God makes you God’s favourite, it preserves, perfects, strengthens, increases, multiplies whatever you are thanking God for.

If you are thanking God for healing you. Your thanksgiving brings about wholeness. Luke 17:15-19. Even if the healing hasn’t taken place and you begin to thank God in anticipation it makes the desired healing to occur speedily.

If you are thanking God for the work of your hands/ business,God would begin to increase it. Psalm 67:5-7.

If you are thanking God for provisions it brings about multiplication. John 6:11-13. Cultivate the attitude of thanking God for everything. When you are expecting something from Him, thank Him. When He has done something for you, thank Him. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 (KJV) says:

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

Giving thanks to God is God’s will for you. It is a good thing to give thanks to God always, so go ahead and give Him thanks. Don’t stop.

Prayer :🙏 Father thank you for everything.

Psalms 4:8 (KJV) I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.

If there are times at night when you go to bed but could not sleep.Then this message is for you. Or there are times you woke up at night to pray and after praying it becomes difficult for you to sleep again, try this prescription- Psalm 4:8 it works.

Many years back I went to bed at night and struggled to sleep then I prayed to God asking Him to make me to sleep. After praying, the Holy Spirit gave me the above scripture. Immediately I finished reading this scripture and put my head on my pillow I slept off, by the time I woke up in the morning every where is already covered with day light. So I got to know that Psalm 4:8 is a sleeping tablet. Whenever I had difficulty sleeping all I do is to open my bible and read Psalm 4:8 and declare “Father let it be unto me according to your word in Jesus name,” and that settles it.

Others who had this problem and I told them of the above scripture always come back testifying to the glory of God. You too can try it because it works.

Prayer: 🙏 Almighty Father thank you for the solutions that come from your word.

Psalms 127:4-5 (KJV) As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

What you are doing or have done for your children today will pay off tomorrow. You are the one taking care of them today, in the future they will be the ones taking care of you.

God has given them to you as a reward according to Psalm 27:3. Verse 4 and 5 said that they are as arrows in the hand of a mighty man, they shall speak with the enemies at the gate and shall not be ashamed. This is talking about the great future you have in your children when you train them properly.

Isaiah 8:18 (KJV) Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion.

God’s plan for you and your children is that of signs and wonders, you cannot afford to miss this plan. That is why you must put in your best in the development of your children to ensure that this purpose is fulfilled in their lives and in yours.

Prayer 🙏 Dear heavenly Father thank you for the gift 🎁 and reward of children and the privilege of being the parent of my beloved children. Give us the grace to live our lives to align with your plans for our lives in Jesus name. Amen.

Psalms 127:3-5 (KJV) Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

The above scripture makes us to know that we received our children from God. Which means that they belong to God first before becoming ours. We humans inherit properties and possessions such as lands, houses, etc from our earthly parents when they die and are no more and we decide what to do with such inheritance. Some people misuse theirs while others manage theirs well.

God from whom we inherited our children is our heavenly Father who does not die but lives forever. Before giving us our children to inherit He has already set out for us the rules for handling the inheritance in Deuteronomy 6: 5 -7. This means that we are care takers of the children God has given to us.

And as care takers we must ensure that we take proper care of them the way the original owner has instructed.

Take charge of your children ensure that you train them in the way of God. Don’t let them train themselves, train them. Don’t let the devil and the world train them. Train them yourself following the guidelines that God has given to the glory of God and they will bring you Joy and peace now and in your old age.

Prayer: 🙏 Dear heavenly Father give me the grace to train my children according to your prescription to the glory of your holy name, in Jesus name.Amen.

HAPPY CHILDREN’S DAY!!!

Proverbs 22:6 (KJV) Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Proverbs 22:6 is a command from God to all parents, Guardians and all God fearing adults who have children within the sphere of their influence. It is a responsibility which should be diligently carried out.

“Train up” as used in the above scripture means the act of teaching and guiding a child to develop certain skills and behaviour. The scripture made it clear that there is a particular way the child needs to be trained so that when he/she gets old will not depart from it. We parents/Guardians in obedience to the word of God must be intentional about the training of our children to ensure that the training we are giving them meets the standard that God requires.

Some of us parents have narrowed training to mean providing a child with whatever he/she demands for and sending the child to school for academics. Sending the child to school and providing the child with the basic things of life are part of it. But the child is not to be provided with whatever he/she demands for.

Training up a child includes to teach, instruct,discipline,rebuke,correct. We are not only required to teach children morals, we are required of God to also teach them the doctrine. That is our faith, what we believe as Christians. They way we ought to live as God’s children. And the best way to do it is by being an example to them as children are influenced more by what they see. We can achieve these by asking God to help us.

Prayer 🙏 Dear heavenly Father give me the grace to train up my children in the way they should go. Holy Spirit give my children the grace to accept the way they should go and to go in it. In Jesus name. Amen.

Tomorrow is Children’s Day in Nigeria. Make out time to pray for your children and commit them into the hands of God. Make it a habit; pray them into the will of God for their lives.

Romans 8:26-27 (KJV) Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

It is common to hear some believers say “I have been baptized in the Holy Ghost but I do not speak in tongues.”And they feel that it is okay because they look at speaking in tongues as just an evidence. Speaking in tongues is as important as being baptized in the Holy Ghost.

Speaking in tongues is beyond an evidence. From Roman 8: 26-27 we can see that the Holy Ghost makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered and also He prays the will of God for us. For a believe who is baptized and there is no evidence of speaking in tongues the Holy Ghost cannot pray or intercede for such a believer because it is through speaking in tongues that He makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. He says things beyond what the mouth can speak, things beyond words.

Speaking in tongues is one of the ways through which we build our faith. Jude 20. Beloved if you are baptized and there is no evidence, crave to be baptized with the evidence of speaking in tongues until you get it, because it is much more than an evidence.

1 Peter 5:7 (KJV) Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Do not try to bear that burden alone, there is someone who cares- Jesus, so cast it on him. 1 Peter 5:7 says we should cast it which means that we are not to share it with him rather we are to give him the whole of it.

What are the challenges of life you are facing right now? The bible says that you should give it to Jesus because He cares. Just take it to Him. Lay it down at Jesus’ feet in prayer and trust him to handle it and give you Victory.

Hebrews 4:15 (KJV) says that we do not have a high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, whatsoever you are going through Jesus knows about it and feels the pains you feel. You are not alone. That health challenge, that accommodation issue, that job issue, that lack and want, take them all to Jesus and drop them for Him. He will handle them all, because He cares and you will shout hallelujah.

John 14:12 (KJV) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

Jesus preached the Gospel, turned water into wine, healed the sick, raised the dead, cast out demons by His word, calmed the storm, fed five thousand men and so many other mighty works. All these that Jesus did He said you too can do even greater than He did because He goes back to His Father in heaven. John 14:12 is a handover note to you and I.

When Jesus was going back to heaven He handed over to us the believers to continue from where He stopped and do even much more than He did. The baton was passed to us. Child of God exercise the authority given to you. Preach the word, heal the sick, do the same thing that Jesus did. Declare His word over your life, health, family,finance, career, ministry and so on. Calm the storm by His word. You can do much more. Shalom!

Romans 12:2 (KJV) And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

In life we set goals of what we want to achieve. What we want to do. Where we want to be. Our career, our business, and a whole lot of pursuits. Infact what we want to become. In all these things it is important for us to find out what the will of God is concerning anything we want to do. As God’s children before we embark on any pursuit we should first of all enquire from God and find out what His Will is concerning what we want to do. And for us to know what His Will is we must not be conformed to this world.

What does it mean to be conformed to this world? It means to be so much interested in your plans, your career, business, current trends, what people say, etc to the point that you pay little or no attention to what God is saying about any of these things. From Romans 12:2 we can understand that it is only when we are not conformed to this world that we will be able to prove what is that good, acceptable and perfect Will of God.

For instance David in 1 Samuel 30:8-19 paid attention to the Will of God by enquiring from God and God gave him victory. On another occasion in 2 Samuel 5:23-25 David did not go ahead to do what he knew from the instructions God gave him during the challenge he had in 1 Samuel 30:8-19 but he still enquired again from God and God gave him another strategy that suits the current challenge which also led to victory.

Knowing what the Will of God is and working accordingly will always produce a perfect result. Therefore beloved, always enquire of God to prove His Will and align yourself with it.

Prayer: 🙏Dear heavenly Father give me the grace to prove your Will and align myself to it, in Jesus name. Amen.
