Sometimes the key to the healing that you seek is just your worship. There is power in worship and praise to God. Worship has in it a healing power that can help restore faith and joy into your being. The L***r in our text today came to Jesus not with complain but with worship and surrenderness to the Lord Most High.

This is the highest kind of faith---praising and worshiping God in the face of challenges. This shows your faith in God's faithfulness, God's ability and willingness to heal you. Bowing before God in worship is casting all your cares and problems at His feet. As you worship and praise God, you are drawing strength and healing from Him.

Recently, a sister told a story about how her dad suddenly passed on at home but her mum and herself engaged in worship and praise to God for several hours. While in the midst of worship her dad came back to life and as at the time of the testimony, her dad is over 90year old, still healthy and strong. What a power that God releases when you worship Him heartily.

The L***r who came to Jesus was not demanding his healing but simply worshiped and in a simple way tendered his request to be healed.
Jesus immediately responded willingly to his request, just the same way he was willing to worship Christ.
Go ahead now and take some time out to worship and praise God for who He is. Put aside your challenge and fix your heart on Him in worship and praise.

It's time to celebrate

Enjoying divine health is an inside out business and your thought plays a key role in your robust well-being. Your thoughts informs your mind and your mind informs your body.
Meaning, if you feed your mind with healthy thoughts, your mind in turn feeds your body with health. To maintain a healthy you, you need healthy thoughts.

Proverbs 4:23TPT says

"So above all, guard the affections of your heart, for they affect all that you are. Pay attention to the welfare of your innermost being, for from there flows the wellspring of life."

This implies paying attention to the welfare of your innermost being (your thoughts, mind, your desires and wills) should be your daily business because your total life depends on it.

However, we know that most people pick their thoughts from the happenings around them:.. environment, relationships, workplace and the likes. But the Word of God says we should not conform to the world and the happenings around us but we should be transformed by the renewing of our mind...Romans 12:2.

The purpose of keeping your mind renewed by the Word of God is to make you enjoy a wholesome life. The information your mind gets from the happenings around you is mostly dangerous to your health, so you have to make deliberate and conscious effort to feed your mind with the Word of God which gives hope, joy, peace, faith, health and all rich treasures you need to enjoy life.

It is not a hard exercise to do but it requires determination and discipline on your part. I must say that this has helped me over a decade as I daily meditate and declare God's Word to myself. Its result is priceless!

Trusting God for your everyday life helps you live out God's plan for you.

You must understand as a believer that there is a plan in the heart of God for you to fulfill here on earth and it will only take your close walk with Him day by day to realize and accomplish His plan for you.

For this reason there is need to trust God with your everyday life---- one day added to another, one month added to another, one year added to another, you will live out God's plan for you. What a way to live life!.

:1Peter5:7, Psalm65

: Lord I thank you for the privilege to trust you for my everyday life. Lord I trust you for success in all areas of my life… (Mention to Him all that you are trusting Him for)

Humanity existed first in the Spirit of God; Gen 1:26-31, and because God wanted us to relate or take possession of the world He created, He then formed a fleshly container for us to live in and God poured man into the container Gen 2:7.

And God daily visited man in the garden He placed man but when man disobeyed God, God did not give up on man but looked forward to redeem us and adopt us as His own again. So He put the adoption plan in place by wearing the image of man----called Him Jesus Christ the Son of God. So that whoever believes in God's mission to redeem humanity through Jesus Christ will be the beloved child of God. And God is still delightfully in this business of adoption, calling son and daughters to Himself through Christ Jesus.

It is ongoing, so don't miss out! In case you are yet to enroll, please avail yourself of this opportunity. Simply believe and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.

This is God's Word concerning praying for what you desire. It is simple and true. God simply says "ask or seek or knock." Though this looks simple but we should know that God is kind and His ways are simple to follow. That is why Jesus quickly gave us a thought in verses 9-11 about a father and son relationship. In that you as a father delights in giving your son exactly what he ask for. God is far kind and more willing to meet your need than you are to your son or than your earthly father is to you. You know why because He has more than enough of those things you ask. He could give even more than you ask.
Now, what Jesus is teaching in this few verses is your ability to believe and receive. Jesus simply gave these words in order to work on your faith in God.

First, He wants you to see God as your Father. A father is a care taker and a need meeting figure. When you think of a father, you think of a provider, an encourager, a protector, a teacher or mentor.

Notice the primary role of a father is to provide. This is because in the first place he was the one who provided or gave you as a seed to your mother who nurtures you to full term in her womb. As a believer, you should see God as your father who is always ready to provide for your needs.


.

This verse speaks of "persistence". Persistence does not mean repetition but it means your consistent confession of faith about your desire.

God wants you to go from that place of prayer with a believe that He has heard you and answered you----and this shows in your words about your desire. You are expected to keep declaring your conviction that you believe that you have received what you asked for. You want to hold fast the confession of your faith in line with your request.

For instance, you asked God for healing, after prayer you believed God heard you and you have received you healing, you wants to continue saying...by surely Christ took my infirmities and by His stripes I am already healed. If your is fruitfulness, after your request in prayer, believe that God heard you when you prayed and you have received your fruitfulness.

Then let your words be in consonant with your believe. Persistently confess that "I am fruitful, I have my children, I have my testimony. And as you do your heart will be full of joy making room for the realities of your desire.

God is a good God. He is a Father and He is ready to meet the needs of His children. He loves to hear your voice and He loves to answer your request. We know this because, Himself, gave us invitation to ask and He quickly back up His invitation with an assurance to receive. This is because He has all you will ever need in stock.

He has made provision for your needs before you existed. If He created more than six Billion people on earth, can He not provide much more for our daily things needs?

He who created a woman with two breast so that at the birth of her child, there is already-made milk to sustain the child, don't you know that He has everything planned out before you existed?.

It is our unbelieve that hinders us from receiving most time. Before you go to God in prayer, settle it in your heart that you will receive what your desire on the ground that God is good, God loves to hear you, God is rich, He has all that you need and He is willing to meet your needs.

This mindset will help you pray from a place of rest and joy. And this is what pleases God when you come to him in prayer.

Christ speaking of things pertaining to the Kingdom is not limited to the body of Christ but also extended to the mountains of the world. God wants the Kingdoms of this world to be taken over by believers as His representative on earth--- Rev 11:15. For this God wants us to reign on behalf of Christ in every sphere of life where we operate.

The Church therefore has the responsibility to build believers to take the lead in every mountain of the world.....Politics and governance, Entertainment, sport and Media, Education, Science and Technology, Finance and Economy. God desire is for believers to be productive in all these mountains, and establishing the kingdom of God in all these sectors, by putting in place righteous SOPs, systems and structures that allows for nation building, wealth creation and distribution, security, peace and the general well being of the the nation.

This is the essence of the Kingdom of God on earth. This is how to establish the kingdom of God on earth. This is how to place the seal of God which is "the Light of God" on earth, shining as light in our world.

Chart a purpose for your life. Dont live a day without having a set goal to fulfil. Live every day with purpose in mind. Few years ago, the Lord instructed me to attach a goal to every hour of my day. When I began to do so, I am amazed at the achievements recorded.

Living life with definate plan and goals is living as one who is wise.Teach us to number our days so that we may apply our heart unto Wisdom says Ps 90:12.

Understand that life is measured in time and time is measured in years and a year is made up of months and a month consist of weeks and a week is a matter of days and a day consist of hours and every hour is made of minutes.

Considering this, a year is long enough to achieve a remarkable feat. It only requires a plan, set of goals, daily work in the direction of the goals, determination and diligence to see it succeed. And what joy follows it when you see your plan succeed.!

Yes, you can achieve that project this year. Be encouraged, draw a plan, break your plan into goals....direct every thought, step and prayer towards achieving your goals and shun procrastination which is a thief of time.

Achieving your daily goals leads you to achieving your plan and your plan achieved is the completion of your project.

Also, understand that everyday is pregnant with opportunities to achieve your vision. You only need to be mindful of your vision by committing it into God's hands and daily drawing strength and grace from God as you deliberately take steps each day towards fulfilling your vision.

Moreso, dont be ignorant of this truth that even though each day is full of opportunities but also know that each day comes with a lot of distraction that are targeted at wasting your time so that you are unable to achieve what God has prepared for you to achieve in the day. So arm yourself with this truth so that you can be wise to approach each day purposefully.

.

We are carriers of God's light to our world....family, marketplace, offices,  school, hospital, hotel, entertainment, media, community, government office, even in the worst places prisons, ghetto, slum etc...wherever you resume daily is your world as a believer.

 *What about you creating system and structure for your company or office where you work in order to bring about daily smooth running of that organization. What about you drawing out a customer attraction and retention strategy for that organization, resulting into growth and profitabilty.

While you do this, ensure you get it to the top management in simplicity and wisdom maybe through a letter requesting an opportunity to discuss with the top level management or by email .....discussing your idea with the top level management like Joseph did with Pharoah and Daniel did with the kings he served.

Being the salt of the earth and the light of the world does not only mean preaching the gospel of the kingdom but making meaningful impact in your marketplace. By so doing you are making your gospel attractive and easy to accept by the unbeliever  around you.

*What about as an Entrepreneur getting a breakthrough product that better meets or solve a problem in the marketplace. This will make you come up the industry ladder where you can influence decisions positively within that industry, thereby being a light in that sector.

My good works are what make my light shine for all men to see. The ideas and inspirations the Holy Spirit drops in my heart which I consciously acted on are what make my light shines for all to see and God is being glorified through me.

Most times, believers are not short of ideas that are capable of transforming our work, organizations, communities or nations but the problem is that we are not acting on them.

Most times, believers waste the result of their fellowship with the Holy Spirit. When you fellowship with the Holy Spirit, He takes things from Christ and show them to you in form of ideas and inspirations which you are expected to meditate on and then act on them or put them to work. By so doing you are solving problems within your organization, community, nation or even in the globe.

What idea or thought came to mind lately that you are yet to work on or put to work? Don't hide your light, go ahead and put it on the lamp stand, so that it can shine for all to benefit from and as others benefits from it, God is glorified and you are also blessed.

Grace is the free provision of all that you need. Let's say you have need for some groceries----canned food, fresh meats, greens, vegetables, pasta, dairy products, fruits, personal care products, hair care products, frozen foods and some other household need, then as you open your door to go out to the grocery shop, behold a friend right at your door with bags full of groceries especially those things you have in mind to buy and she presented them to you as gifts saying I brought these for you because I know you need them. What would you do? I am sure you will receive them and thank her for the gifts. Similarly, Christ has paid for the complete package of all that you will ever need in life to enjoy life with His Precious Shed Blood.

Now faith is receiving what you need without paying a penny because grace has made them all available. Faith is simply receiving all that grace has made available. How then do you receive? It is by simply thanking God for all you need with the believe that they are provided for by grace.
Now, God is saying I have made provision for your well being, I have made financial provision for you, I have made provision for you to be a father or mother of children......just come and receive them, you dont need money to get them, and you don't need to work to get them because you cannot earn them. You simply need to receive them because they are ready for pick up. Wow!. This is the simple relationship between grace and faith. For a woman believing God for children, God is saying your children are ready----your husband has them in his loins and he simply deposited them into you. And their growth is nothing you do for yourself. Just eat and drink right like you have been doing then they grow to maturity and come forth to life at due date. ...it is of faith that it might be by grace....

Understand that work is an enemy to receiving what God has provided for you... Romans 4:4 says "Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt."
Such work include anxiety, worry and fear. Work here include worry, anxiety and fear. God does not want you to be anxious or worry or fret about anything. If you keep figuring out how you will get what you need, you will miss grace. You will end up having what you can only earn but if you believe God has made provision for all, you will have more than you can earn. Halleluyah glory!

The beauty of focus.

Psalm 22:26 TPT
" Let all the poor and broken eat until satisfied. Bring YAHWEH praise and you will find him.
May your hearts overflow with life forever!

This is a call to come and dine at the table of the Lord. In a time like this where the world is experiencing global economic crunch, God has prepared a feast for His people to eat until we are satisfied.

The invitatation to this divine feast is praise and this very verse of scripture made it clear here saying
"Bring YAHWAH praise and you will find Him"
In a time like this the key to exemption from the economic crunch is praise from a heart of faith. You do not need to join others who keeps complaining about the nation and the economy.

You have been instructed by the Holy scriptures which impart you with wisdom that makes you shine in the midst of darkness. And this wisdom is continuous praise to God.

Praising Him because He is your creator and your Father. He is faithful in His responsibility to you. He will never fail in meeting all your needs and He is able to reach you with exceeding and abundant provision.

He is more than enough and unlimited! El-shaddai! So go ahead and praise Him with this revelational knowledge of His love and power released towards you in meeting all your needs.

When your heart is shattered, it still matters and can be whole again.
You can still have beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.

As a woman God desire for me to always maintain gentle and peaceful spirit. God loves for me to live a life without anxiety---a quiet life. God loves for me to focus on making myself beautiful from insideout. Understand that in God's sight a beautiful woman is one that is beautiful from inside out not the one with external beauty. Don't misunderstand me external beauty is key but much more key is your inner beauty. The truth is that your inner beauty as a woman makes you glow and attractive outside.

Inner beauty include:
Quietness on the inside....This is a sign of anxiety-free life. It is equally a sign of faith in God. Normally there are so many things that get a woman worried...raging from getting a spouse, having children in marriage, raising children, sufficient finances, being loved by her spouse, getting attention and affection from her spouse, her appearance, acceptance etc However, a woman who has a close and undivided walk with God will naturally develop a quiet spirit; Matt6:28. This is because from her fellowship with God, God pours into her revelation-knowledge of how much He loves her and this settles her fears.

This is true of Mary the sister of Martha in Luke 10:38-42. Mary was in the habit of giving Christ a delighted attention whenever Jesus is teaching. She was in the habit of going after Christ every where so as to listen to His Word. When Jesus visited her and her sister Martha, Mary saw it as a privilege to sit still at Jesus feet with rapt attention, perhaps she never had opportunity to go close to Christ whenever she listened to Jesus in the public place.

Mary's intimacy with Jesus built over the years made her approach the death of Lazarus differently compared to how her sister Martha did. Martha spoke with Jesus in anxiety, fear and hopelessness John 11:21 but when Mary met Jesus she first worshiped Him John 11:32, putting aside her worries about their brother's death and at this point her tears which stems out of her worship and pain caused Jesus to weep in compassion and calling Lazarus back to life.

"...if you Love Me, you will Keep...my Commandments"

To keep means to have something in your possession. Christ wants you and me as believers to have His Word which is His Commandments as our personal possessions.

Keeping His Word as your personal possessions means giving your heart to read His word daily. Making the reading of the word part of your daily schedule. Prioritize your fellowship with the Word. Creating time for the Word daily. You can achieve this by drawing a daily or weekly Bible plan for yourself. Plan it, mean it and do it.

Also, Christ wants you to obey or yield to His Words in your everyday life.
This is beneficial to you.

However, as a believer all of this depends on your level of Love For Christ. ...if you love Me......
This is what reveals the level of your love for Christ. Your daily fellowship with Him in His Word and your prompt obedience to His Word in your everyday life.

Note that there are two distractions that can hinder a believer from fellowshiping with God in His Word.....these are Comfort and Challenges.

As, a believer you need to be wise to make these two hindrances your motivation to fellowship with God in His Word daily.

For Comfort....in Appreciation and thirst to intimately know the God who gives you comfort, you need to daily open your heart to His Word. Creating good and real time to study His Word.

For Challenges... This is the more reason to come close to God, trusting Him to help you. For this reason you want to devote more time to study His Word and comfronting your challenges with His Word.

Remember, when God check on you from heaven, He is checking on you to know if you have His Word in your Possession!

Matt 633

It is obvious that God's ways are different from man's ways. What God counts as most important is less esteemed by man. The reason is not far fetch, it is the realm we live in. Man is moved by his five senses, physical things he sees and feels but God sees beyond the physical because God is the creator of all.

The truth is that the things that are seen first existed with God and by His commands they came into existence and they are to serve man purpose. Also, man existed first with God before being born on earth and man was made to serve the purpose of God.

Now, we have to understand that if we live according to the purpose why we were made which is to seek and worship God, then the things that are made for our purpose will also align to seek and serve us.

In other words, if you seek and worship God, prioritizing God as your earnest desire, then the basic things that you need to live a comfortable life comes to you on their own accord.

This is the secret to wealth---seeking God's interest and serving God's purpose in all areas of life. Not running after gain but after God.


.

The truth is that many believers have this head knowledge that there is nothing impossible with God but in reality they have not entered into rest concerning the truth about God's power, wisdom and goodness towards them. Whenever they are challenged, they give in to worries, fear and anxiety.

The writer of this Psalm 116:7 recalled how pressed he was when death came knocking but he lifted up his voice in prayer to God for rescue and safety. And God in His love heard him and rescued him from death. This gave him a confident rest that if God can rescue him from death, there is no issue of concern God cannot solve for him.

The fact is that challenges come with worries, fear and anxieties but entering into rest by recalling how He released His power, wisdom and goodness towards you in little challenges. The truth is that God must at some point helped you out of little challenge and if He released His goodness towards you in little challenges, you should be rest assured that He will put you over any challenge.

You get into this state of rest by giving thanks and praising God for His goodness and His power towards . You need to know that your union with Christ has endeared you to God and because of His love for you, He will sure release His goodness and power for your victory. Be at rest, God has your back.

Atmsphere of the Word.

God is always ready and willing to reveal to you the secrets that will bring about healing, relief and solution to your personal questions and human problems in general, if you will press on him. If we will ask in faith----having faith that God is able, willing and ready to reveal to us hidden secrets that will help us in life.

God only want to see our faith, patience and persistent, just like Daniel had and together with his friends, requested that God show them the secret dream of the king. And God honored their faith, patience and persistence.

I see God honoring your faith and my faith in this reason in Jesus Name. Amen.

.
Happy New week. Stay blessed

What a responsibility on both side of humanity and Divinity. As a believer, God expects that you should be diligent in your walk with Him. With delight in your hearts, seeking Him daily in His word, Prayer and in your worship. This act of delightful fellowship with God releases into your heart the grace to hear His instructions and to obey His instructions either convenient or not.

When God sees your delightful commitment to Him, He in turn grant you grace to follow His plan for your life. The truth is that most often than none, God's ways are not our ways but by your intimacy with Him, you are graced and empowered to submit your will for His will.

As a believer, if you still struggle to obey His instructions, is a sign that you are yet to attain a place of intimacy with Christ.
Never be discouraged, for you are not alone in this path. Many believers are yet to fully attain the very place of intimacy with Christ. It is a gradual process of maturity into the stature of Christ, where you Esteem His will above yours. This is the sweetest part, your intimacy with Him, makes it so easy for you to obey and follow His instructions.
Divinity is ready to partner with you in the race of life but you have to take up the responsibility to delightfully seek Him daily in Worship, His Word and in Prayer.
