Why meditation on the word is good

Psalms  1:2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.  
1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

God doesn't speak in chapters & verses. He speaks a complete thought.
Meditation helps you know the beginning & pause of the thoughts.
 Meditation is an art and an act that brings you to the realms the writers were when they penned down the Scriptures.
You have to be taken there to understand the thought pattern that's communicated.
That's why Scriptures can not be subject to private interpretation.
It is in meditation that the doors to the realms of the real interpretation is opened unto you.
When you enter into this realm and see the thought pattern, such moments are called The Rhema or The Eureka Moments
This is what brings true transformation. At this point, its to late to doubt His word because you have touched the reality.
Every point of mastery in the kingdom must pass this stage. Its when you mediate and touch it that you can interplay with what you  have learnt.
 This is what brings the building of His church
When u touch it, you have touched it.
 Kenneth hagin gave a testimony of when he was sick for months. His grandma use to open up bible before him and then he reads for few minutes One day, He read by His strips I am healed, That reading led to meditation, Because at that instant he remembered the substitutionary work of Jesus and other possibilities in Jesus
 This eventually produced result in his life.
When you read and meditate, Other passages will link up each other to you to bring a perfect and accurate understanding.
 Every passage in the bible is a door to a possibility
 God does not talk in vain.
 The road to the future is in the past. And the map is hidden in the scriptures in stories, parables , experiences e.t.c
 If we can sit down and study,  You are good to go
The issue is just that ability to sit down, Because most time we form busy and if you ask what are you busy doing?
And once we go through the daily devotion book... We are  satisfied. Discipline yourself to meditate on the word it will make what it talks about.

Joshua  1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

How to pray effectively

James  5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

The life source of every believer is prayers because it's an opportunity to draw from the very life of God making you more and more like him, in the place of prayer a whole lot of addictions and short comings  falls  off the life of the believer without even knowing, because in the place of prayer you have access to the refiners fire and it works to make you better.

Prayers is not just an avenue to get our needs meet, a lot of believers have turned prayer to an opportunity to always ask and recieve, which is not a totally bad idea but prayer is more than asking and receiving, prayer is a fellowship an intimate relationship where you rub your heart and mind with divine presence. It's a place where we come to meet our maker and draw life and strengthen our lives. The intention of God for man is relationship not religion,  at the garden in Eden God was always coming to man in the cool of the evening for fellowship because relationship grows in the platform of fellowship.

 for our prayers to be effective its has to fervent, heart felt, continuous. It has to be a life style and not a duty, it has to  be easy flowing  and not burdensome, it has to be everytime and anywhere. We have to see it as a meeting with God.
To pray effectively you will have to pray the word, talk God's word back to him.
 For our prayers to be effective it has to be done in love. Pray because you love the lord pray because you love to fellowship.  prayers done out of love is done in the flesh as a result it has no effect, walk and pray in love. And a prayer done in love is done in faith. The success of a relationship is the love in that relationship so also the effectiveness of your prayers is the love you have for God. Do you see God as someone you can use? Come and take until there is a need again, or do you love to be at his presence in the place of prayer.

1 Corinthians 13:1-2
[1]If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
[2]If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

To pray effectively you have to pray in the spirit, when we pray in the spirit by speaking in tongues we pray better because at this point our spirit is praying. At this point the holy spirit touches areas of our lives that needs changes the holy spirit helps us to pray. So the most effective prays is the prayers done for us by the holy spirit that was why apostle Paul could say I pray in tongues more than you all. I encourage you to always cultivate the habit of praying in the spirit consistently for this will make your prayers effective.pray in tongues now.

Romans 8:26-27
[26]In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words;
[27]and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

How to overcome anxiety and worry

Philippians 4:6-7
[6]Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
[7]And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

The devil is out to make our lives miserable as much as we allow it,  most times the devil uses so much worry and anxiety to lead people into depression, frustration and sometimes death.
When ever you are worried and anxious about a thing just remember it's the enemy wanting to gain access into your life. There are some things in life which you cannot change don't kill yourself by worrying over it. We are not to sit and allow the system of the world corrupt our thoughts, the system thinks about what tomorrow will be, how safe is my job, how can I feed how can I pay fees, am getting older am not married and so much more will the world system make you worry about. But know this and be assured that these thoughts and worried leads to anxiety which causes more problems for you.

Matthew  6:27
 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
 6:28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:

By thinking and worrying you don't add to your life but you causes more harm. So I will encourage you to sit back relax and trust in he promises of God for your life if He cares for the birds and the grasses on the field then definitely you are top of the list of those whom he will not abandon. What ever you do and what ever the lord has committed into your hand be it a job no matter how small or a ministry just focus on the lord for all things. When you worry you put the load on your self remember the lord is saying give me your worries give me your pains give me that which make you anxious and let me carry it for you.

Matthew 11:28-30
[28]"Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.
[29]Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
[30]For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."

One of the easiest way by which you can free yourself from worrying and anxiety is to trust the lord with your troubles lay it at his feet and let go of it, see it now as the responsibility of the lord since you have committed it to his care. How do you do this? It's by prayers learn to give all your worries to God in prayers. Our opening scripture said don't worry Take no thoughts and don't be anxious for anything no matter what it may be. be it now or in the future it's say in all things in prayers and supplication let out your worries be made known to the lord and he loves you too much to see you carry it on your own give it to the lord . So I say don't worry but pray. Pray about it talk to your maker about it and let it go. Freedom from worrying and anxiety now in Jesus name.

Why should I give as a believer

2 Corinthians  9:6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. 
 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.


So many times and so many people have come to downplay the reason and purpose of giving. As a Christian we give not as a law not out of fear but we give because we love God. We give because we understand everything we have at the first place comes from God. We give because it's our responsibility to make sure the gospel is propagated to the end of the world.

We don't just give our resources nor do we just give our money too, we give our all our life is first given for this gospel when we know and understand that our very existence is tied to this truth and nothing is worth more than a life given for the lord then our money will not be a problem.

When we give our money we give it as a sign of true worship that we value the lord more than money. We are following the example of a loving father who loved the world and gave his son who was his all for the world. When you love anything you can give anything for what you love without being cajoled to do it. When you see Christian debating about giving to the lord don't be surprised, just check their love for the lord and that will be all you need.

When we give we open up a door for the lord to bless us in return, when Paul prayed for the philippian church, it was out of the abundance that that they have given to him. That prayer was provoked by the passion at which they supported his ministry. So we give and God supply all our needs according to the riches of his glory by christ jesus, not according to our given but according to his riches.

When you give you are blessed, when you give in love you open up to the inheritance of what God has released to us in christ Jesus. Never give in fear nor give as if you don't then you are cursed never, when you give let it come from a cheerful spirit according to your capacity, as you proposed in your heart. Sometimes you may have a leading to give more and it may be painful but it's gainful at the end. Never feel you are under a curse for not giving but learn to make giving a lifestyle, give to the poor in the church and  communities give to the widow the orphan the those who are in need. Give to the work of the ministry give to minister of the gospel let your life be a life of countless blessings.

Finally discipline yourself to have a Covenant seed you give to the propagation of the gospel in your local assembly or to the ministry you are called. Giving is living.

Philippians  4:18 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.  4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

The faith that wins

Luke
 7:8 For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. 
 7:9 When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.  
7:10 And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.

There are so many laws governing the operation and manifestation of faith. For a believer to maximize his faith he has to be able to operate in this truth.
The fuel that kindles the fire of faith is the word, faith comes by the word its built by the word its sustained by the word.

For your faith to be a winning faith it has to be based and founded on the truth of God's Word not on the ideas of the world system.

From the above scripture it's clear that faith works by spoken word, for your faith to win you have to learn to speak, bold declaration. Words of authority. What you need to get what you want is in your mouth. The centurion man was able to use his understanding of power and authority to demonstrate how faith works. You as a believer is a man having the authority of God at work in your life, when you speak angels are dispatch, demons tremble, when you speak sickness disappears, solutions are made available. Faith is not a respecter of race, colour or gender, it doesn't matter where you are from. All that matter is that you are found in christ, the centurion man who wasn't a jew and had no inheritance according to the Jewish customs but because he found Jesus he had his wishes. We are already found in him not having our own righteousness.

Make use of your right in christ and begin to speak to that problem for if you say to this mountain be remove it shall be removed, don't cry before the problem but speak to it, speak what you want,  say it the way you want it to be, command the situation for your favour, say it just the way you want it to be. Don't allow the trials change your perspective of who God is and what he can do. Your faith comes alive when you speak. You may not see it now,  but speak it now. faith is not sight. Don't keep quiet speak boldly about your situation and it will turn for your favour.

A winning faith does not need to see things change before it believes but believes that the changes are happening as he speaks. Never allow the limitations of the human mind rub you of divine varieties. You are born to operate in the realm of winning faith, your confidence is the word because the word never fails so you cannot fail in your faith operation.


Hebrews  11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

GOOD SUCCESS

Joshua  1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

If there is a good success that means there is a bad success. One of the  worst thing that can happen to a man in his life time is to have bad success. A person who has not discovered his purpose or a person who chooses the wrong purpose in life and succeed in that purpose he has chosen has a bad success, in the eyes of the world he his successful but in the eyes of God his maker that success is a bad success.when a man succeeds in the wrong assignment in the wrong purpose his success is not a good success.

Any success a man enjoys outside christ is not a good success for you to have a good success it must be in christ. Let's learn to see success in the eyes of the word. A man may succeed in life but fails with God, Tracing your root to God through christ is your first step to a life of good success.

Now that you are saved and walking in the newness of life. The anchor of your life is the word of God. A believer cannot succeed without the word. It was Said to Joshua this book and its revelation should be in your mouth and in your heart day and night let it be your thought let it be your song let it be your language and if this is your way of life it says then you will make your own ways prosperous, wow the word in your heart and in your mouth has the ability to make you prosperous and having a good success.

Good success is to be born  into God's family,to be saved to be born again  and in this family you discover your assignments and purposes you follow it and with the help of the spirit you fulfill it.good success has its root in the word no believer can succeed in life without the word. Get hold of the word stay with it let it be your life let it be your song let it be your words and meditation on the word should be your character, live this life knowing your life depends on this word.  Good success is succeeding all round in all sphere of life you find yourself. Anything you do its success. From your health to your family your business your job your walk with God you enjoy God's backing in all areas of life. Good success does not fail in some areas and succeed in some areas no its an all round success.

Psalms  1:2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.  1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

Limitless opportunities

¹⁶Don't waste your time on useless work, mere busywork, the barren pursuits of darkness. Expose these things for the sham they are. It's a scandal when people waste their lives on things they must do in the darkness where no one will see. Rip the cover off those frauds and see how attractive they look in the light of Christ.

Wake up from your sleep,

Climb out of your coffins;

Christ will show you the light!

So watch your step. Use your head. Make the most of every chance you get. These are desperate times!

¹⁷Don't live carelessly, unthinkingly. Make sure you understand what the Master wants

Ephesians 5:16-17

You Will Get Many Opportunities...

Over the years I have learnt to be wary about adopting popular sayings, particularly when they do not come from the bible.
One such popular saying is:
"Opportunity, only knocks once..."
This is not true!
I have seen many people driven to ruin, because of what they saw as "the opportunity of a lifetime"(another untruth), ....they say opportunity only come but once how this has driven many to fraudulent lifestyle in the name of I may not get it again. From early age this words kept ringing in my heart cause my primary school teacher told us if we miss this opportunity we may not have it again as I grow older with the help of God's Word I discover its so untrue, we are going to have opportunities in life as long as we live.

But what we do with these opportunities ultimately defines how our lives turn out, take hold of the numerous opportunities that comes your way and win everyday.

Think of a company like Coca Cola; do you imagine they regret that they did not go into motor manufacture, or computers, or farming, over the last 100 years? They surely had the money, to do all those things.

This is not to say, you cannot be in different types of businesses, but whatever you go into, don't get there opportunistically. Don't go into it with an attitude that says, "I will never get another chance like this... Life is not a game of chance.

For those who work diligently, and prepare themselves. Training themselves, looking for ways to meet human needs, rather than making money; Don't fret:
"Your opportunities are going to be like a flood, ever increasing. The latter opportunity will be greater than the former."

This is what we Believe *Your Opportunities are Limitless

Every day comes with new opportunities as we face the challenges of life doors are opened continuously for new victories. Never allow the system of the world dictates for you. What the world call a life time opportunity may just be one of many opportunities to come our way in life.

I believe God has not program us to make it look like once you miss an opportunity you may never get  another again no. He said I know the plans I have for you they are for good and not for evil, because God's plans are good plans, and  these plans are new every day and they are numerous in a life time. So I say am in God's plan and in his plans are a wide variety of opportunities. God bless you.
