It is time for the children of Zion to rise up and begin to accept responsibility for bringing lost souls to Christ.

Read Isaiah 13:1-3.  God is calling the noble, the mighty and the sanctified to rise up in holy anger and begin to break the powers of the forces of evil hampering God’s people from entering into their designated places in destiny.

Many people out there have been destined for salvation and God is urging us His children in this scripture to come together with the force of a multitude and raise our voices to make a tumultuous noise (in prayer).  This will shake and unsettle the forces of evil and force them to remove their hands from off the blessings of God’s people.  The kingdom of the heathen can be brought down by corporate prayer.

There are qualities you must possess to become a  noble, a sanctified and a mighty child of God.

· The first quality is that you should live a life  dedicated to seeing God exalted on the earth. Isaiah 13:2.  For example, you must have the strong desire to see people set free from addiction, alcoholism etc.

· You must be willing to be used as an instrument by God to bring the powers that are holding people down to naught. And most importantly to turn the battle back to the gate.

In the book of 1Kings chapter 19:9-17. We see how God’s people had more or less rebelled against God.  Elijah was commanded by God to anoint Jehu as King. Anointing in this context is authorisation.  After Jehu’s anointing the authority to slay came.

The Lord will grant you the slayers anointing to deal a deadly blow on the forces of darkness

that have refused to let the captives become liberated from sin and addiction. Read 2Corin 4:4.

Prayer is a pivotal force.  Your harvest is determined by the prayers raised to heaven.  I declare to you that everything and anyone that has hitherto held the prophetic promises over your life from manifesting is broken this hour in Jesus Name. Amen.

In Acts Chapter 13.  We see how the disciples could make no headway because of  Elymas the Sorcerer.  Read also Acts 16 vs 16.

You need to understand that you need to ask the Holy Spirit to help you reveal the root of whatever is not of God in your life.  Without His help there is no conquering or overcoming your obstacles. Say this prayer: “Lord the thing that I cannot see that is disturbing me execute judgement for me by the Blood of Jesus”.

God Bless You!

Welcome to the 12^th Month of the year; The month of delivery according to 2 Kings 25:27-28.  I decree that all your imprisoned blessings will be released in this 12^th month in the Mighty Name of Jesus. Amen.

Master a day and master your life. Read 1 Corinthians 13.  Christians are more concerned with what they want.  But the challenge is how to go about getting it. Stop building on miracles and start building on principles.  Love being the major principle.  Until we move away from being children and grow up into sons a lot of what God has ordained for us will be inaccessible.

The book of 1 Corinthians clearly outlines the fact that without love everything in life is meaningless.  Whatever you aspire to be, whatever power or knowledge of spiritual things you may possess if you cannot love or you fail to love, you and everything you possess is worthless!  Much of your achievement in spiritual things and physical things is based and hinged on love!

Love will cause you to obey God’s commandments. By obeying God’s commandments you are ensuring that the promises in the Word become flesh, in other words,  physical manifestations – proof of the faithfulness of God.

The Bible clearly explains in the book of John. Jesus is the Word but became flesh to fulfil God’s promise for his people.  This simply means that if you want what is written to become flesh in your life – obedience to God’s word is of paramount importance.

We need to change our habits for anything of a divine nature to occur in our lives.  When you live a life filled with love, even to those not worthy of your love – you experience an open heaven every day of your life on the earth.

It is time to put away childish things.  Read 1 Corinthians 13:11.  The first step to becoming a man is to “come to yourself”.  Read the Story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15.

Church, it is time to put away petty grudges, pride and all the things our God hates and begin to operate in love.

It is the love of God that takes you from a Child to a matured son.  It empowers you to tolerate each other.  It is this same love that will mould you into a vessel fit for the master’s use.

God Bless you!

It is my prayer that as we move towards the end of 2010 that God will remember us all.  It is important however that we learn to focus on God and to trust Him.

To focus on God requires us to be mentally stable.  We therefore need to refrain from anything that can cause us to become distracted and mistrustful of God.  It is of supreme importance not to allow the spirit of being worried to torment us.  Allowing the enemy to invade your mind with worry causes your faith to weaken.  There is also no room for the spirit of peace to reside in your heart.

Worrying worsens the problem rather than fixing it.  Make sure you do not allow your mind to lose focus of the truth of the Word when a problem is encountered.  Job did not allow the problems he was going through to distract him from his faith in God.  Read Job 13:15.  Job maintained his way (his trust and faith) before God as before, even though he had lost everything dear to him.

When faith is weakened it leaves you vulnerable to worry, anxiety, restlessness and ultimately an end result which is praiseworthy.

Things do not always go according to plan in our lives.  The unexpected happens – loved ones are lost through sickness etc, finances are lost, business and careers can be lost.  But we must always focus on the goodness of God who will make us to recover all.  Read Luke 22:31

In Luke 22:31-32 we see that Jesus recognises   that we, His people can face trials  but that our faith should never fail.  I adjure you to keep your faith no matter what you are going through today – Jesus will see you through.

To help deal with worry and anxiety :

• Cast your care on God -1 Pet 5:7. Remind yourself of things that make you happy.
  • The Word of God – Focus on the Word.  It keeps your mind free from worry. Food of the mind is the Word 1 Cor 10:3-5.
  • Prayer – Phil 4:6 advises us to pray at all times.  Make a habit of talking to God all the time and wherever you are.

Following these points more than qualifies you for Divine Arrears – Receive them in Jesus Mighty Name – Amen.

God Bless you.!

I hereby welcome you to the month of divine arrears. I declare to you that every arrears of your blessings shall be paid to you in this month of November in Jesus Mighty Name.

2 Kings 8 vs 3 is a perfect example of payment of divine arrears.

This woman came before the King and cried to the King for the return of her land and property. By crying to the king she provoked the return of her arrears.

Note who she cried to. She did not cry to a sister, a brother or a relative she came to the King. Who you cry to matters. She knew who to go to that would guarantee her returns. What are you crying to the King(God) for. What you don’t cry out for , you do not have a right to! She collected because she dared to cry. In verse 6 The King appointed her an officer and ordered the officer to restore her property to her. My prayer is that God will appoint a human agent to deliver to you your divine arrears and fight your battles for you in Jesus Name Amen.

When the Israelites could no longer bear the suffering of slavery anymore they cried out to the Lord and God sent a deliverer – Moses.

It is a King that appoints. God will appoint for you and you will not end this month the same way you started in Jesus Mighty Name. Read Joel 2 Vs 1-26. God can turn years into days. What you have been looking for over years, God gives in a day.

Isaiah 65 vs 23 is proof of the fact that it is when we cry out that God hears. So call to Him and you will be guaranteed an answer from heaven. Key your faith into days not years.

When you cry unto God it is then He will choose who to appoint to deliver your divine arrears. Take a look at 2nd Kings 6 1-6. The ‘missing axe’. This can be likened to a missed opportunity. The man cried out “alas master, it was borrowed”. On hearing his cry the man of God took action and the axe was restored to him. I decree that every lost opportunity will float back to will be restored back to you in Jesus Name. Amen.

What is Divine Arrears ?

• Unpaid debts – Rev 5 vs 12

How to Provoke Divine Arrears ?

• You must know the King. Be Born Again. In His presence is where divine exploits are decided.
• Cry out to God for it. Job 42 vs 10. Prayer must be involved.

Genesis 8:5

⁵ The waters continued to recede until the tenth month, and on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains became visible.

Wisdom is the principal key

Luke 2:40

⁴⁰And the child grew and became strong; he was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.

We are containers and can be filled with wisdom. Wisdom is more important than the anointing.

ANIONTING – WISDOM = DISASTER

1 Corinthians 1:24

²⁴but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.

Luke 2:52

⁵²And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and men.

The more wisdom one gets, the more favour one receives. It is not God who determines your favour but your wisdom.Wisdom is gotten from diligent search for knowledge.

Proverbs 3:13

¹³ Blessed is the man who finds wisdom, the man who gains understanding,

Proverbs 21:20

In the house of the wise are stores of choice food and oil, but a foolish man devours all he has.

Genesis 41:38-39

³⁸ So Pharaoh asked them, “Can we find anyone like this man, one in whom is the spirit of God ^[a] ?”
³⁹ Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has made all this known to you, there is no one so discerning and wise as you.

Wisdom is not memorized, it is revealed

Philippians 2:9

⁹Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name

Wisdom does not occur in words alone but in works. Wisdom makes the face of man to shine.

What is wisdom?

Matthew 7:24

Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.

Wisdom is walking in God’s revealed ways. It is an issue of obedience. Wisdom is the word of God applied. If knowledge does not become understandable, wisdom cannot manifest.

Foundation of Wisdom

The fear of the lord is one of the ways by which wisdom can manifest.

Proverbs 8:13

To fear the LORD is to hate evil;  I hate pride and arrogance,  evil behavior and perverse speech.

You are welcome to the month of divine wisdom and the tenth month. On thing that can take any man to the top in this kingdom is divine wisdom.

Proverbs 4:7-10.

7 Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, [a] get understanding.
8 Esteem her, and she will exalt you; embrace her, and she will honor you.
9 She will set a garland of grace on your head and present you with a crown of splendor.”
10 Listen, my son, accept what I say, and the years of your life will be many.

From the scriptures, exalt her and she promotes thee, so wisdom is a principal key that guarantee lifting. Without wisdom, your life will remain on the same spot. We are going to be looking at some examples:

JESUS

Looking at the life of Jesus, Our lord and saviour, He knew the importance and principal role of wisdom in His life and ministry. Luke 2:40. The first thing, Jesus sought for in the beginning of His journey was wisdom before He sought for anointing. Wisdom is more important than the anointing. Jesus went in search of wisdom of God before the power of God. And that is why today, He is called the wisdom and the power of God.

1 Corinthians 1:25

25For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength.

Jesus laboured for the anointing by acquiring wisdom first that came through seeking knowledge and understanding. Anointing without wisdom equals disaster. For example, Samson. It is clear, the anointing will produce the resort you desire but wisdom will sustain it. It is wisdom which stabilizes the result generated from anointing. You can have anointing without wisdom but you can not be wise and not be anointed. Proverbs 21:20, Proverbs 8:22

Jesus saw that the Father possessed wisdom in the beginning of His way. In a similar way, Luke 2:40, He began by possessing in the beginning. So, wisdom is what you must posses at the beginning of every venture.

Luke 2:52

52And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature and in favour with God and men.

Not only did Jesus possess wisdom, He increased in wisdom by diligent search for knowledge. So, Jesus increased in wisdom before increasing in stature, and in favour with God and man. In addition, it means, one can never rise beyond his/her level of wisdom. The more heights one wants to go, the more wisdom one must have. No wonder Jesus finished his journey in great height according to Philippians 2:9. That is why He was given a name which is above every other name.

At the beginning of everything, marriage, business, career; the first capital you must look for is not money but wisdom. That is why we encourage people to buy materials, to buy books that will increase their amount of knowledge of wisdom. People can afford more money to spend. A wise man once said, “That people spend more money on cars in stead of libraries, that is why cars run faster than their brains”; just like a processor determines the speed of a computer.

JOSEPH

Wisdom took Joseph to a great height in Egypt. Wisdom provoked Joseph from a prisoner to a prime minister

Genesis 41:38-40

38 So Pharaoh asked them, “Can we find anyone like this man, one in whom is the spirit of God [a] ?”
39 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has made all this known to you, there is no one so discerning and wise as you. 40 You shall be in charge of my palace, and all my people are to submit to your orders. Only with respect to the throne will I be greater than you.”

So, it was wisdom which turned a slave to a ruler. It was the spirit of God in a realm of wisdom that uncovered the wisdom which enthroned Joseph.

DANIEL

It was the same wisdom which enthroned Daniel in Babylon.

Daniel 6:1-3

1 It pleased Darius to appoint 120 satraps to rule throughout the kingdom,
2 with three administrators over them, one of whom was Daniel. The satraps were made accountable to them so that the king might not suffer loss.
3 Now Daniel so distinguished himself among the administrators and the satraps by his exceptional qualities that the king planned to set him over the whole kingdom.

WHAT IS WISDOM?

Wisdom is working in God’s revealed ways. Wisdom is God’s approach in dealing with things.

Matthew 7:24-26

24“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
25The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.
26But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.

According to these scriptures, wisdom is the law of God applied. Wisdom is simply word-practise. Wisdom is the ability to see anything the way God sees it and to act the way the God would. People listen to sermons, read books, buy and listen to cds; however, their lives do not change. Just as you acquire information, it will not change until you understand and put the knowledge acquired into action by doing what God wants. Psalm 119:98. Scarcity of wise people is traceable to shortage of world practitioners.

WHERE DOES WISDOM BEGIN?

Wisdom begins with the fear of God

Proverbs 9:10

10 “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

Job 28:28

28 And he said to man, ‘The fear of the Lord—that is wisdom, and to shun evil is understanding.’ ”

Without total references for God, no wisdom will come your way.

How do I know I fear God?

Stay away from sin that is anything which annoys God. One cannot walk in holiness without the fear of God. 2 Corinthians 7:1, Proverbs 8:13. The fear of the Lord is to hate evil, arrogance and pride.

Proverbs 6:16-19 outlines what God hates. It was the fear of God which did not let Joseph sleep with Potiphar’s wife. It was the fear of God which did not let Joseph revenge on his brothers. When the fear of God becomes your choice; you have chosen the part of righteousness

Proverbs 1:29

29 Since they hated knowledge and did not choose to fear the LORD,

In conclusion, if you choose the fear of God, you however choose the paths of wisdom. So, as you keep learning this month, I see you getting wiser. Proverbs 2:5
