My people perish because lack of vision...!

Hosea 4:6 NKJV

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.

*****
Shalom! Day #243. Do you know that when we live without a purpose and vision, we are actually living a wasted life? Let's pray.  Father, give us a vision and a passion to live this life according to Your will and purposes. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

There is another version of this verse which says, "My people perish because lack of vision." Have you found the reason of your living, the purpose of your life? The bible also said, if you lack of vision,  ask from the Lord. People without vision has no passion to live. All they want is just to somehow go through each day of their lives without a purpose to live for it. There is an old song, "Que Sarah Sarah,  whatever will be, wil be." In this song she doesn't know what her future holds for her. But we as a believers of Christ Jesus, we know for sure that we have a bright and hope filled future in Jesus. My people perish because lack of vision. During my growing up days, end of every year we used to make the new years resolution and will try our utmost to stick the plan till we achieve the resolution. Now that's a vision or a purpose driven living for the coming year. What about our Christian living as believers?

Guided by vision. Driven by passion. With a mission for this generation! That's my motto! As for me, every end of the 6th month I'll take time to fast and pray for what to do in the first half of the year, and same for the second half of the year. And I will go on with what God has given to me. We must have a vision. That vision give us a purpose for living. That purpose give us a passion to run the race to accomplish the vision. So, what about you? Have you gotten a vision for your life, family, work, ministry?

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

To know Him and to make Him known.... are you?

Daniel 11:32 NKJV

Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great  exploits.

******
Shalom! Day #242. Do you know that if you really know who is the God that you serve and trust in, you will not be shaken by thunderstorm or when tsunami attacks, but you will attempt greater things for God! Let's pray.  Father, we want to know You more today. Give us a revelation of who you are in our lives today. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Those who know their God, will do greater exploits. The question is simple, DO YOU KNOW YOUR GOD? It takes more than a worship, adoration, respect and every weekend services. It's about your intimacy with Him. For us to know Him is actually about having an intimate relationship with Him. We profess to know our God but by our actions we deny Him. The bible says that the Lord knew us even before we were formed in our mother's womb. God took time to know each of us. Are we taking time to know Him? Those who really take time to know their God,  will never ever falter when tsunami hits them, when thunderstorms comes, when things are happening not as planned. They are the people who will do great and mighty things even when their situations and conditions are not in favor with them. Why? Because they know who is the God that they serve and believe in.

They shall be strong and carry out great exploits. You know, whenever God tells me to do something,  I will take time to fast and pray and during the fasting and praying period, the devil will try his very most dirtiest trick ever to hinder me from doing what God wants me to do. At one time, I was planning for my youth revival meeting, 2 days before the revival meeting I met in an accident and my car was dented. Yet, in all that, I still believed there is something great and extraordinary is installed for the youth revival meeting. Romans 8:28 say ALL THINGS WORKS FOR GOOD.... I believe in that! How come? Because I know my God! At one point, Jesus asked Peter,  "what does people say about Me?" Peter replied, "You are the Messiah." How does Peter knows this? I believe that the Holy Spirit opened up his spiritual eyes to see who Jesus actually is! How it happened? Again it's about how intimate we are with our Creator. Are we intimate enough to know the God we believe in?

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

A humble heart, a right attitude...!

Daniel 10:12, 19 NKJV

Then he said to me, “Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words. And he said, “O man greatly beloved, fear not! Peace be to you; be strong, yes, be strong!” So when he spoke to me I was strengthened, and said, “Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.”

******
Shalom! Day #241. Do you know that when you humble yourself before the Lord and pray, all your prayers are heard and God Himself will come to you? Let's pray. Father, as we humble ourselves before you and serve you with a humbled heart, Lord we pray that You would answer every of our prayers and supplications which are lifted up to You. We believe that You are prayer answering God. Thank You Lord. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

From the first day you knew the Lord, till the last day of your life, set your heart to understand and to humble yourself before the Lord. Always remember this, WITHOUT GOD IN THE PICTURE OF OUR LIFE, THERE IS NO ANY VALUE TO IT. BUT WITH GOD IN THE PICTURE OF OUR LIVES, WE ARE PRICELESS. Set your heart to seek His kingdom and His righteousness. We are made righteous, in His righteousness.  The Lord has come to answer your prayers because of your word, your humbleness before the Lord. The Lord looks into the attitude of our hearts before Him.

When our heart is right before God, humbly serving, you know the Lord Himself will encourage us to be strong and to be steadfast in the things of God. For example Nehemiah,  he was in continuous danger for being the cup-bearer for the king. If someone poisoned the drink, he is the one who must taste and drink it 1st. Yet, in all this, Nehemiah kept serving.  He wasn't destined to be a cup-bearer, but he started out as a slave, and served faithfully and his ranking begin to rise and finally he serve in the palace. His attitude was right. Daniel,  feared and honored God and he remained as the governor since Nebuchadnezzar till this verse we read today. How about us today? Do we despise the every little things which God has given us to do or we take it seriously and begin to do it? A humble heart and right attitude before the Lord,  will bring you to higher heights in the ministry of Jesus Christ!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Let His glory to shine into His sanctuary...!

Daniel 9:17-19 NKJV

Now therefore, our God, hear the prayer of Your servant, and his supplications, and for the Lord’s sake cause Your face to shine on Your sanctuary, which is desolate. O my God, incline Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city which is called by Your name; for we do not present our supplications before You because of our righteous deeds, but because of Your great mercies. O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name.”

******
Shalom!  Day #240. Do you know that we are called by His name yet we are desolated in one way or another? Let's pray. Father,  we pray today thay You would come and restore and rebuild our desolated spiritual life. We acknowledged that we are called by Your name, therefore Father come and restore,  revive and heal us today. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

If we read the bible, it is written that the Lord has called us by His name. There are around 14 scriptures in the bible that mentions this phrase, "CALLED BY MY NAME." It's a wonderful privilege to be called by the name of the Lord. Yet many of those who have been called, remain desolate and not wanting to do anything about it. From desolation to restoration.  It happens when we allow God to shine forth His glory upon His sanctuary, His temple -  our body, our lives. In Hebrew desolate is known as SHAMEM which means to devastate, causing horror, be deserted. A desolated Christian living can be a horrifying living, deserted living, a devastated living. Why? Because, the evil and unclean spirits will be the residents of the desolated life. Causing much trouble, depression, hypertension,  spiritually dead and many more. In one way or another we are desolated in some areas of our lives.  It may be the secret sins, our bad habits and etc. Spiritual awakening is needed. But how? It happens when you began to call upon the name of God and be saved, restored and healed. Be delivered from this kind of demonic possession. 

Such a wonderful privilege to be called by His name. But then many lost the vision and passion of the calling because there are desolated areas in their personal lives. If today you are feeling desolated, devastated, deserted, then you must do this, PRAY! ASK FOR FORGIVENESS FROM GOD! DO NOT BE SELF RIGHTEOUS! HUMBLE OURSELVES BEFORE GOD! And finally ALLOW Him to bring restoration,  revival and healing into your desolated areas of your lives and begin to arise and shine. Let His face, His glory to shine into His sanctuary!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Be ready to move...!

Daniel 8:19 NKJV

And he said, “Look, I am making known to you what shall happen in the latter time of the indignation; for at the appointed time the end shall  be.

******
Shalom!  Day #239. Do you know that God reveals to us the things that will happen in future? Let's pray. Father,  we pray that You would give us a sensitive Spirit. Sensitive to Your voice. Sensitive to Your move. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Look, God's says LOOK. It means He is revealing the things ahead of us to us. We are to SEE it and take heed of it. What is God revealing to you in these days? Are we in tune with His Spirit? Before God does something, either a good thing or punishing a person or a generation, He warns us first through the servants of God, or even through common people like you and me. Now, we are living in times of His latter glory. So, the latter glory does not only brings exceedingly abundant blessing, revival, miracles,  healings but also the great wrath of God.

For everything on earth has it expiry date. Humans too have their expiry date. Even the world we live in today has it's expiry date as well. It has the appointed time. The Lord reveals to us the things which He is about to do. He does not do anything without warning us or revealing to us first. Be ready to do when God reveals things to us. Be ready to move when He ask us to do so. Be in tune, be sensitive to the move of the Holy Spirit.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

People see the Spirit of the Living God in us...!

Daniel 6:16, 20-22, 26-27 NKJV

So the king gave the command, and they brought Daniel and cast him into the den of lions. But the king spoke, saying to Daniel, “Your God, whom you serve continually, He will deliver you.” And when he came to the den, he cried out with a lamenting voice to Daniel. The king spoke, saying to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you from the lions?” Then Daniel said to the king, “O king, live forever! My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths, so that they have not hurt me, because I was found innocent before Him; and also, O king, I have done no wrong before you.” I make a decree that in every dominion of my kingdom men  must  tremble and fear before the God of Daniel. For He is the living God, And steadfast forever; His kingdom is  the  one which shall not be destroyed, And His dominion shall  endure to the end. He delivers and rescues, And He works signs and wonders In heaven and on earth, Who has delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.

******
Shalom! Day #238. Do you know that even the unbelievers who have witnessed the power of God working through you will fast and pray to the Living God just to save you from harm and danger because they acknowledge that the Spirit of the Living God is in you? Let's pray. Father, we pray today that you would use each and everyone of us who read this devotion today to touch at least one life today that they may see Your power is at work in our lives and in their lives. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Darius, he was trapped by his own governors in motive to murder Daniel because he was well known. They felt insecure by the reality that Daniel is better than them in every ways. So the plotted against Daniel by asking Darius to give a decree and put to death those who don't bow down to their "gods." Well what happen then? Did the lion tasted a delicious meat? Yes, but it wasn't Daniels. Darius fasted and prayed for Daniels wellbeing while he was in the lion's den. He said, "Your God whom you serve continually, He will deliver you." Darius recognizes it. He saw the ferventness of Daniel in serving God. And he said CONTINUALLY,  which means Daniel did not bow down to the Babylonians gods, but he faithfully served the One true Living God!

The things you do for God, people sees it. Be it believers or unbelievers,  they see, hear what you do. The only thing differentiates the followers of Christ is, whether they are living according to His word and did not bow down to other gods or they are just being a Christian for name sake. Darius recognizes that Daniel is a servant of the Living God, and he witnessed that the Spirit of the Living God is in  him. Can people see the Spirit of the Living God in us? Can they recognize that you are the servant of the most High God? Are we producing the fruits of the Spirit of God In us?

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

You are known because the Spirit of God is upon you...!

Daniel 5:11-12 NKJV

There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the Spirit of the Holy God. And in the days of your father, light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him; and King Nebuchadnezzar your father—your father the king—made him chief of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers. Inasmuch as an excellent spirit, knowledge, understanding, interpreting dreams, solving riddles, and explaining enigmas were found in this Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar, now let Daniel be called, and he will give the interpretation.”

******
Shalom!  Day #237. Do you know that people are able to see the difference in us who believe in Jesus as well as the non believers? Let's pray. Father,  we want people to see the difference in us so that they may know we as the believers of Christ are different than the world. Let Your glory shine through us. Let our attitude speaks of Your teachings. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

What does people see in you? Are they able to see the Living God in us or we are living a life that doesn't bear witness of the Lord? People are watching the way we live, the way we do things,  our attitude and so on as a believer and as a servants of God. We as a believer of Christ, are to bear witness of Christ in everything we do in every way we live. But sad to say, nowadays people one attitude in church and different attitude outside the church. In church they lift their hands and worship, outside the church they lift their hands in clubs and discotechs. With our own mouth we profess  to know Jesus Christ, with that same mouth we deny Him by the way we speak, live.

Here in this passage,  Daniel is well known not because of his might and power but because THE SPIRIT OF GOD WAS UPON HIM! It's not because of our talents or the way we serve God that's labeled us as a follower of Christ, but it's the Spirit of God that's in us. People acknowledges it. Bearing the fruits of the Spirit that's visible to the eyes of people. When the Spirit of God is upon, you don't need people to lift you up, but God Himself will lift you up. Your legacy lives because God's Spirit is in you. His Spirit brings increase and not decrease. Are we bearing the fruits of His Spirit in our lives and through our lives? Live not as bearing the name of the religion, " oh I'm a Christian" but live truly as a follower of Christ! Amen! Is the Spirit of God alive in you? If yes, then live it fully for Him.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

He is able to put down...!

Daniel 4:3, 37 NKJV

How great are His signs, And how mighty His wonders! His kingdom is  an everlasting kingdom, And His dominion is from generation to generation. Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, all of whose works are truth, and His ways justice. And those who walk in pride He is able to put down.

******
Shalom! Day #236. Do you know that not one man can stand with all their pride before the throne of God? Let's pray. Father, forgive us for our self righteousness and pride which caused us to think or do things in our own understanding and our own way. Crush our pride that we may humble before You. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

All the things Nebuchadnezzar did by and in his pride makes him to realize that there is One who is much greater that him and none can compare to His greatness. Many miracles God performed just to break Nebuchadnezzars pride and to humble him. In every event of his dreams, God performed a miracle through Daniels interpretation. God humbled Nebuchadnezzar. Are we today in a position that's filled with pride? Where we think God does need a position or place in our lives. There is a song, I DID IT MY WAY. Are we doing things without the need of God's intervention in it? Leaning on our on pride and understanding is the beginning of our destruction.

In the beginning,  if we look back at the history of Babylon,  the only reason God brought confusion and change the language they speak because the tried building a skyscraper during their time. Therefore their pride was the only reason God had to intervene in that situation and cancel their plans. Let us who have believed in God continue to trust in Him for every of our lives decisions and for every step be directed by God. Never start a day without inviting God to be control of the day and everything that's goig to happen during that one whole day.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Walking in the midst of fire...!

Daniel 3:17-18, 24-25 NKJV

If that is  the  case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, O king. But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up.” Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished; and he rose in haste and spoke, saying to his counselors, “Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire?” They answered and said to the king, “True, O king.” “Look!” he answered, “I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.”

******
Shalom! Day #235. Do you know that even though you are placed in a fiery furnace for obeying God and do not want to defile yourself, well God Himself will come to your rescue? Let's pray. Father, as we obey and do your will we understand that there are hindrances, obstacles, testings will come our way. Give us a heart that will never falter in any situations and conditions as we put all our trust in You. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

I don't know about you, but the GOD that I serve is mighty and able to rescue me from any kind of situations and conditions. Pslamist David wrote in psalms 23.... though I walk through the valley of shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. Although they were placed in a difficult, life threatening situation, they did not choose to bow down and worship the gold idol, but they CHOOSE TO TRUST IN GOD! Halleluyah! Life is beautiful when your total dependant is on God. Life is interesting when you do not know what holds your tomorrow but you trust that God will bring you through it.

You see the fact here. Nebuchadnezzar cast three of Daniels friend's into the fire pit, then suddenly he saw got 4 people in the furnace. Who is that fourth person? Daniel? I don't think so. It's the Lord Himself came to their rescue. He that brought them into the fire is able to rescue and bring them out of the fire as well. I believe God allowed this to happen so that through this He wants to teach Nebuchadnezzar a lesson. See, they were not just placed there in the fire, but they were walking in the fire. They weren't thinking what to do or reminisce abput their fate, but they began to walk in the midst of the fire. Are we just allowing our pitty party to surround us and sink us or we have conquered over it and we rule he situation and not the situation rule us? Rise up above the impossibilities!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Shining for His glory...!

Daniel 2:47 NKJV

The king answered Daniel, and said, “Truly your God is the God of gods, the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since you could reveal this secret.”

******
Shalom!  Day #234. Do you know that your testimony about the Lord's miracles and power bears an extraordinary power? Let's pray. Father  help us to bear good testimonies about You in our lives. Help us to bear witness that would turn others to believe in You today. In Jesus name we ask and we pray, amen!

The steadfastness of Daniel, the seriousness of Daniel in the calling of God, the heart attitude which he possess in recognizing the value of the calling of God, has made him to receive extraordinary blessings and promotion. Daniel, he purposed in his heart not to defile himself. This is spiritual discipline which we must practice. Daniel, through his ministry, king Nebuchadnezzar begin to see the wondrous works of God through him. Jesus said we are to be the salt and the light for this world. Salt adds flavor in our food, therefore we are to be the salt to add in spiritual flavor into the lives of people. Light,  you know what it means. When you are placed in a dark place what do uou find first? Of cause a torch light. Well Jesus asking us to be the light for thia world as well. Even in darkness,  our light must shine forth His glory into the lives of those who are in darkness. Daniel was placed in darkness and he began to shine in the darkness.

People who have witnessed the works you have done, will surely and confirmly be amazed at His creative power and creative miracles. As same as king Nebuchadnezzar, he is an idol worshipper, yet when only Daniel was able to interpret his dream, he marvelled at the wisdom Daniel has and gave God the glory. Nothing is hidden from God. His Spirit searches much deeper that we could ever comprehend. His Spirit uncovers everything hidden in our hearts. And sets ur according to His plans and purposes... God knows well. Anyways, are you willing to make a stand as how Daniel did?

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Have you purposed in your heart...!

Daniel 1:8, 17, 20 NKJV

But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s delicacies, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the chief of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. As for these four young men, God gave them knowledge and skill in all literature and wisdom; and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams. And in all matters of wisdom and understanding about which the king examined them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers who were in all his realm.

******
Shalom! Day #233. Do you know our obedience towards God and His words, will eventually bring blessings, success, good health, healthy spiritual living, revival and restoration,  and many more? Let's pray. Father, give us an obedient heart as Daniel had. A heart that's fully focused on You and a purposed heart that will never do anything that could defile Your temple. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Well, everyday is a special day for me, but, today is an extraordinary special day for me. On this day, 31 years ago, before I came into this world, God knew me even before I was formed in my mother's womb and He has written His purposes and His mandates in my heart just before I came to existence. And now, it has been 14 precious years together with the Lord and been serving Him all this while is a great privilege!  It took me 17 years after my birth to discover the purpose of why I was created. I gave up my career as an IT Engineer at a very well known company that makes the computers brain with a well paying salary just to embrace and to step into the purpose that God has for me. Well you might be wondering what it has to do with today's verse, well I coming there. This same verse came to me 14 years back when I accepted Jesus. And God has been true to His word! I was the worlds reject,  but Jesus accepted me.

Daniel purposed in his heart not to defile himself. The stand which Daniel made, God honors it. And he became great. God took him and made him to be an important man in Babylon. In John chapter 1, you would read about Jesus and John the Baptist.  There you will see a few points of why Jesus and John the Baptist came as well. Well Jesus, as we read in John 1:18 NKJV No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him. Here there is a profound truth. People ask where Jesus came from the answer is He was in the bosom of the Father, which means within the heart of God, and God speaks and Jesus was manifested into being. God created us in His image. God created us from within His bosom to do and live for His purpose. Jesus has creative power. As we invite Jesus in our daily lives, somehow we will see His creative power  at work. God meant our lives to be purposeful. And now Daniel was like John the Baptist. Let's look into verse 6 and 7 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe.

Four points I found here was :

There was a man. First you have to Recognize our humanity. We aren't some kind of angels.  But humans in nature. Human has their weaknesses. They fall and they rise. Yet God still choose this man, we. For what?

Sent from God. Secondly,  you must Recognized your calling. Recognize who sends you. Do you value your calling? Well called To do what?

To bear witness. Thirdly Whatever you are doing, are we bearing witness about Jesus? And what is the result?

Finally,  that all through Him might believe...

Daniel recognizes what he has been called to do. He realizes who sent him. He knows what he suppose to do and he bore the results of what he has worked for. Guided by vision. Driven by purpose. With a mission to see this generation to experiences the salvation of God. Have you purposed in your heart to live for God, to do His will, to see His creative power at work?

This is the day...!

Ezekiel 39:8, 27-28 NKJV

Surely it is coming, and it shall be done,” says the Lord God . “This is the day of which I have spoken. When I have brought them back from the peoples and gathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and I am hallowed in them in the sight of many nations, then they shall know that I am the Lord their God, who sent them into captivity among the nations, but also brought them back to their land, and left none of them captive any longer.

******
Shalom! Day #232. Do you know that the days of revival and restoration is approaching and it is coming very quickly? Let's pray. Father, prepare us for this day Lord. We want to experience this unthinkable revival and we want to be restored and be healed. Come and revive us. Come and restore us. Come and heal us. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Surely and confirmly this are the days of revivals, restoration and healing! Surely and confirmly this are the days of God pouring His latter rain, His latter glory! I've been witnessing some massive revivals happening in my country and also amongst my very own people. You know, I'm speaking about hundreds of people giving their life to Jesus at just one revival meeting. Can you imagine it, if in one revival meeting,  hundreds of souls,  what about 10, 20, 0r even 100 revival meetings.  Wow! Hallelujah! Now is the time for God is bringing back those who have been in captivity. Come on folks,  aren't you excited about it?

This shall be the sign. God being hallowed in those who are brought back from captivity and nations shall witnessed it. Those who gone into captivity are the ones who disobeyed God, backslided, rebelled against God and God sent them ito captivity. And now a good news to them is, God is cooking up a massive revival amongst this people group. Now one things we need to be careful of is, cult teachings and cult churches. People may say, I am Jesus, Jesus has come, this ia the new name of Jesus and so on, but hey the bible says, Jesus must be in heaven until everything is done on earth, then The Second coming of the Lord we will witness. And now many things are happening around us. Even the wars that's been prophesied in the bible is taking place now. And here God is saying this is the day! Indeed this are the days of outpouring of His latter glory!!! Are we prepared?

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

The dry bones in me....!

Ezekiel 37:3, 5-6 NKJV

And He said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” So I answered, “O Lord God , You know.” Thus says the Lord God to these bones: “Surely I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live. I will put sinews on you and bring flesh upon you, cover you with skin and put breath in you; and you shall live. Then you shall know that I am the Lord .” ’ ”

Shalom! Day #231. Do you know that now it the time for a great awakening,  a massive revival? Let's pray. Father, use us to be Your instruments of revival. Use us to speak to the spiritually dry bones to rise up and be alive once again! In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Bones. Can the dry bones in the grave live? Well it seems to be impossible,  but, hey my God who created human from dry dust can make the dry bones to be covered with new sinews and skins and blood flows in and come to alive! Now is the time for an unexpected, unthinkable, unimaginable revival to take place! Now is the time for us to prophesy to these bones! All those spiritually dry bonez, prophesy to them! Every spiritually dry areas in our lives,  prophesy to them! Every spiritually dry believers,  prophesy to them! Then God will begin to breathe in the breath of life into them! It's time for a great awakening! Are you ready? Now is the time for us to do the unthinkable things! This is the seasons of the latter glory so get up and be prepared!

These dry bones are found at the valley.  Valley signifies a fallen place, a place of punishment,  a place where dead animals are burned. The dry bones are found at the valley. There are still valleys of dry bones in our lives.  If we allow the Spirit of God to show us the areas of our lives that are still like the valleys of bones,  then God will breathe into us and bring us back alive! As king David prophesied over his soul, come revive oh my soul, then he begin to rise up because God revived him from his spiritual death. Folks, we need to identify the valleys of bones in our live and begin to prophesy to it and let God to breathe into us the breath of life, the breath which cause a revival to take place! You can experience this revival if you open up your hearts today for God to breathe into you!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Help us to hold on and totally to put all of our trust in Your word, that we may not turn to other, but to You alone. In Jesus name we ask and pray,  amen!

Come on folks now is the time to experience this latter glory of God! Are you awaken? Are you wanting? It's up to you!

Search and rescue...!

Ezekiel 34:16, 31 NKJV

“I will seek what was lost and bring back what was driven away, bind up the broken and strengthen what was sick; but I will destroy the fat and the strong, and feed them in judgment.” “You are My flock, the flock of My pasture; you are men, and I am your God,” says the Lord God .

******
Shalom!  Day #229. Do you know that in this last days,  God is actively,  aggressively, involved in search and rescue mission? Let's pray. Father, here we are. Use us aggressively and actively in Your search and rescue mission,  to seek the lost and to bring them back to You. Use us according to how it pleases You. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Well, for the record, I can say that God is really cooking up something in this last days. Since the beginning of this world till today, God is actively and aggressively involved in search and rescue mission. His mission is simple, "THAT NO ONE SHALL PERISH." Wow, I've been witnessing a lot or revivals taking places in my country itself. God is really doing something in every churches, community, villages, amongst the natives group. With or without us, God will still pursue His mission.  All He needs is a heart that's willing to go on behalf of Him, a loyal and faithful heart towards the calling. God be our Shepherd and we are His flock. If one amongst the billions of the flocks gone missing or astray,  He will still come to search and rescue that one sheep no matter what the price He must pay!

I don't know about you, but I want to be involved in this search and rescue mission. I want to see the extraordinary glory of the latter rain. I want to see a massive history making revivals before I die! Therefore I want to avail myself fully for this cause. When we begin to move together with God in this mission, He will use you to search, to rescue,  to bring back, to bind up the broken hearted, and strengthen those who are sick! It's a massive task, but you aren't alone in it, God is with you. He is the Miracle Maker, we are His glorified vessels. He works through you! Get ready folks, get READY!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

The pirated Christians....!

Ezekiel 33:31-32 NKJV

So they come to you as people do, they sit before you as My people, and they hear your words, but they do not do them; for with their mouth they show much love, but  their hearts pursue their own gain. Indeed you are to them as a very lovely song of one who has a pleasant voice and can play well on an instrument; for they hear your words, but they do not do them.

******
Shalom! Day #228. Do you know that God is looking for doers of His word and not just mere listeners? Let's pray. Father, give us an ear that's quick to listen and a heart that's quick to obey and do you commandments. Help us not to seek our own gain, but to build up one another with love. Thank You , Jesus. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Folks, let us not lie to one another as well as to ourselves. By just telling people good things about them, showing some fake love is not going to do anything good for us. I had a conversation with God, I told Him, "Father,  people are talking behind of me, what shall I do?" Then I heard Him saying, WHERE ARE THEY TALKING FROM? I said from behind. And He asked me again, WHERE ARE YOU NOW? I said at the front. Then that moment I realize people will never stop criticizing us. The moment they stop criticizing us it means we have stopped growing. I'm at the from of them, and they are left behind,  because they talk behind of me. Humans are alike as I said, by word the praise you, by deeds they destroy you. The bible said LOVE THY NEIGHBOURS AS YOURSELF. We listen this word, but we seldom practice it. We are number one in tearing down people, but to love them,  I don't know...

Why people are N.A.T.O members? Because there isn't a deep stirring in their hearts when they receive the word. There is no passion to work the word out. When you work the word, then you will see the word work your life. Many stony grounds. A good example,  the parable of the sower. Even in the book of James,  it is written about being a doer of the word. Not merely listening but doing it as well. Not just talking,  but to walk the talk as well. We have such "pirated" Christians in the market now. Selling so hot than a pirated audio cd or dvd movie. Pirated Christians are those who are sunday seat warmers. Go to church on Sunday's, listens to the message,  warm the seats and go back home the with the same condition they came. Pirated Christians,  they listen but they don't do. They talk big, but they dare not walk. No matter how good you preach, even if you preach till fire comes out from your mouth, people are still people, they listen by one ear and goes out at the other ear. This is speaking about their hearts attitude. The only thing that can disciple our heart is our attitude. Our attitude determines our altitude. This pirated Christians, their hearts possess a stubborn attitude. An attitude that's not will to accept a change, or do something in order for a change or even don't bothered to be changed. Stubbornness,  then comes disobedience then rebellious spirit.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

The days are near...!

Ezekiel 30:3 NKJV

For the day is near, Even the day of the Lord  is near; It will be a day of clouds, the time of the Gentiles.

******
Shalom!  Day #227. Do you know that the days of the Lord is getting nearer and nearer and our we only have a handful of time on earth? Let's pray. Father, give us the urgency in our hearts so that we would take and use every opportunities in our lives to expand Your kingdom and to live for You. In Jesus name we ask and pray,  amen!

But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night. Are we ready? Are we prepared for anything that would take place? Well this is not an end time message but it's an alert for every believers. The day is getting nearer and nearer and what are we doing? Am I doing the things that's reflecting His glory or we are just being seat warmers in the church? The Gospel of Jesus Christ will only be at work when it is imparted in the lives of the people. To see lives be impacted and transformed, then the Gospel must be preached,  shared and bring to the lost!

Oh man... it is written in the bible,  that the latter rain will be an extraordinary rain than the former fain. The latter outpouring of God's glory will an unspeakable, unlimited and unstoppable pouring! It is written,  in the last day He will pour out His spirit upon small and adult. Folks, now is our time for this latter glory!!! Now is the time of our lives. The oil needs to be refilled overflow once again! So are you ready?  This are the days filled with excitement and exciting moments, we need to be prepared to move together or else we would be left out. The splendor of the latter glory, we shall experience!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

His Perfection in my imperfections...!

Ezekiel 28:15, 17-18 NKJV

You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created, Till iniquity was found in you. “Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor; I cast you to the ground, I laid you before kings, That they might gaze at you. “You defiled your sanctuaries By the multitude of your iniquities, By the iniquity of your trading; Therefore I brought fire from your midst; It devoured you, And I turned you to ashes upon the earth In the sight of all who saw you.

******
Shalom! Day #226. Do you know that God created us in perfection but sin came in and destroys it? Let's pray. Father, forgive us for we have fallen into the traps of the devil until Your perfection were replaced by the devils imperfections in our lives. It is Your grace that's captured us and have brought us back to You once again. Thank You Father.  In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

What made us to lose the perfection of God in our lives? It's our iniquities. Our sins robs us of God's presence, perfection, blessings, healing, and etc. We think we are "ok" and that we don't need anyone's interference in our lives. We lean on our "beauty", be it our strength, wisdom, knowledge, our stupidity,  stubbornness, impatience and disobedience.  For the sake of getting a good name, a splendor we tend to corrupt God given wisdom. Well, you can't mix God's wisdom with the worlds wisdom. When you mixed it, it will always be in contradiction with one another. The wisdom of God says do it His ways with patience,  the worlds wisdom says do it this way much faster and no hassles. We sin, we disobey God. Disobedience and impatience is found in every believer. A good example in the bible,  Saul, he disobeyed Samuels commands.

By this we defiled the sanctuary of God, our body. When we allow unclean spirits into our body, it will eventually defile the sanctuary of God, our body the temple of the Holy Spirit. I say this not because I am too holy but it's every believers battle to not to give in to the the devil's tactics. Every men has their own battle to be fought daily, I'm struggling in some areas of my life, you may too struggle,  it may be same or different,  we cannot falter now, we must fight it!  Again, it is by His grace that we are captured into His love. Because of His grace, God gave us His grace period to repent and return, not repent and repeat! Again, I say this not because I am too holy, I have my flaws as well, let's encourage one another and walk in His grace together.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

The Last Stand...!

Ezekiel 22:30 NKJV

So I sought for a man among them who would make a wall, and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found no one.

******
Shalom! Day #225. Do you know that the Spirit of is searching for a man and a woman who would mke the last stand for this generation, that would build walls of prayer around this generation, so that God will see that there is still righteous people in this generation? Let's pray. Father, we want to be the man and the woman who are willing to make the last stand for this generation and  to build walls of prayer around this generation so that the eyes and the hearts of  this generation shall be opened to see Your salvation and Your glory in this end times. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to find those who will go on behalf of God, those who would be willing to stand in the gap for this generation to build walls of prayer around this generation today. This is the last stand we would make for this generation before the second coming of the Lord. Are we willing to build the walls of prayer around this generation today? As Nehemiah did, he rose up to the challenge when everyone else we mourning because the destruction of the walls of Jerusalem.  Nehemiah rose up and begin to build the walls of Jerusalem.  Why? It's because he felt that deep anguish in his heart, the cry for the generation. Do we have the anguish in our hearts today? The cry for this generation? To build up the walls of prayer and to stand in the gap for this generation? Many man and woman of God before us made the stand and built the wall, now it's our time to receive the baton from them and to continue the race, standing and building!

Sadly, not even one have been found. Everyone is busy making a name and fame for themselves. Everyone is busy "doing" ministry but they forget the most important thing, their relationship with God. They can be busy doing ministry, running here and there, one service after another, but if the relationship with God is in shattered condition,  we would not be able to hold on very long. ARE YOU THE MAN AND WOMAN THAT GOD HAS BEEN LOOKING FOR? When you mend the works of God, the Spirit of God works with you. Nehemiah sought the Lord. Nehemiah allowed God to baptize Him with an anguished heart and as God shared His heart to Nehemiah, he begins to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. Nehemiah was the man that God was looking for. God could have used Nehemiahs brothers, his relatives,  but why Nehemiah was chosen by God? Because he was WILLING, HIS HEART WAS IN PAIN, DEEP PAIN IN LOOKING AT WHAT IS HAPPENING TO HIS GENERATION. When people were busy complaining, murmuring, mourning, just talking and doing nothing, NEHEMIAH STOOD OUT OF THE CROWD AND MADE A DIFFERENCE.  What about us today? Are we willing to make the last stand, to stand in the gap, to build the wall of prayer around this generation and to prepare them for the second coming of the Lord?

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

A sweet aroma through His discipline...!

Ezekiel 20:37-38, 41 NKJV

“I will make you pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant; I will purge the rebels from among you, and those who transgress against Me; I will bring them out of the country where they dwell, but they shall not enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord . I will accept you as a sweet aroma when I bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you have been scattered; and I will be hallowed in you before the Gentiles.

******
Shalom!  Day #224. Do you know that God disciplines those who He love because He wants the best out from them to be used in His plans and purposes for their lives? Let's pray. Father, we pray today that You would discipline us according to Your ways. Purge all the sins in us. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Bible says, God disciplines those who He loves. Why He has to do that? Because He wants the best from us. It's a hard process,  oh yes it is. The discipline process of God is simple. He will take us, cleans us, sanctify us, teach us and purge every rebellious spirit in us so that we will come into submission to God. God will bring us out the country we dwell, meaning to say He will bring us out from the darkness we are, into His marvelous light. A heart that's willing to be disciplined will see the greater works of God in them and through them. People who aren't broken before Him will never be able to go far in the ministry.

The disciplinary process of God is an ongoing process. A person does not gets disciplined in one day, it may be a lifelong journey. God is making us into a sweet aroma. A pleasant aroma to Him. He will be hallowed in us before the unbelievers. Are we willing to allow God to discipline us? It is for our good.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Turn and live...!

Ezekiel 18:31-32 NKJV

Cast away from you all the transgressions which you have committed, and get yourselves a new heart and a new spirit. For why should you die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies,” says the Lord God . “Therefore turn and live!”

******
Shalom! Day #223. Do you know that God initial plan is to save mankind from eternal death and to give them eternal life through Christ Jesus? Let's pray. Father, Your word says that You have given to us Your only Son as the ransom for our sins. He paid the price for our sins. Father, we want to turn back to You and live. Forgive us for our countless sins towards You. We repent and we return to You. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

The grace of God is not a license for us to sin. God with all His grace and mercy gave us the grace period so that we would turn back to Him from all of our transgression,  our sins. Personally,  I need this new heart and new spirit in me. I repent of what I have done and receive His grace. We need to allow the Holy Spirit of God to search our hearts daily, to uncover everything that's hidden in us that would bring us to repentance.  And receive the abundance of life, a new heart, a new spirit. Revival happens from a heart that wants to be touched,  transformed and revived.  It starts from one person first then it spreads to the nations. We must have the revelation of the Cross in our daily walk with God. Allow the work of the cross to be alive in our life.

A new heart,  a new spirit is what I, you, we, this generation needs! The initial plan of God was not to destroy humankind but to save them. Why God wiped out humankind during Noahs time is because they despises the warnings of God, they rebelled against God, they disobeyed God and they were swimming on the oceans of sin. Thus says the Lord, for I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies." Therefore now, NOW TURN TO GOD AND RECEIVE LIFE! It's starts from me and you. Are we willing to repent and return to God? Think about it and make a right decision.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

I shine is because of a glimpse of His glory...!

Ezekiel 16:9, 14-15 NKJV

“Then I washed you in water; yes, I thoroughly washed off your blood, and I anointed you with oil. Your fame went out among the nations because of your beauty, for it was perfect through My splendor which I had bestowed on you,” says the Lord God . “But you trusted in your own beauty, played the harlot because of your fame, and poured out your harlotry on everyone passing by who would  have it.

******
Shalom!  Day #222. Do you know that name and fame comes because we shine in the splendor of God? Let's pray.  Father, we acknowledge that whatever we have now a good name and fame, it's from You and not of our own. It is You who cause us to shine and make our name known. In Jesus name we ask and pray,  amen!

While we are covered with our sins, the Lord hand picked us and washed us , sanctified us and anointed us with oil to stand before Him and to serve Him. There are certain talents and gifts which God gave everyone so that they can use it to glorify Him and to serve Him. We should realize one thing that, it is not through the skills, talents or gifts we have which make us to be well known, but we shine because of His splendor,  His glory. Not by our might, not by our power but by His Spirit, we are able.  This has been the sole purpose of my Band, TFGB. Why Faceless? Because we are here not to seek our own glory but to bring glory to Him. Because we know, the moment we pride on our success and takes the credit for ourselves, thats the beginning of our downfall.

But you trusted on your own beauty..... Many Christian artist which I have came across,  they fall because when they take credit for what they have achieved and let God to be out of the picture. They made it through His help, but when comes to appreciation,  the leave God out and thy bgan to take all the glory and credits to themselves. Do not forget from where God hand picked us and what a perfect transformation He brought into our lives. The reason I shine today, is because a glimpse of His glory in my life, not on my own strength and power but by HIS SPIRIT and His GLORY! So are we stealing His glory today?

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

There is an idol in our hearts...!

Ezekiel 14:4-6 NKJV

“Therefore speak to them, and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God : “Everyone of the house of Israel who sets up his idols in his heart, and puts before him what causes him to stumble into iniquity, and then comes to the prophet, I the Lord will answer him who comes, according to the multitude of his idols, that I may seize the house of Israel by their heart, because they are all estranged from Me by their idols.” ’ “Therefore say to the house of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord God : “Repent, turn away from your idols, and turn your faces away from all your abominations.

******
Shalom! Day #221. Do you know that knowingly or unknowingly each one of us have our own idol in our hearts? Let's pray. Father, as we come before You today, Holy Spirit please come and destroy every kind or every form of idols in our hearts and in our lives today. Let there be no any trace of it. In Jesus name we ask and we pray, amen!

Knowingly or unknowingly each one of us has an idol in our hearts. We built an idol altar in our hearts. And because of it we all stumble and fall. It makes us to sin and fall. This idol it is what we see, we hear and we input it into our hearts and we allow it to control our lives. We idolized many things in our lives. Your idol can be your habits. Your idol can be an attitude that's controlling your life, may be stubbornness? I don't know. Today if you want this idol be removed from you heart, your life well, you got to ask Jesus to come and remove it because it is He who baptize you with Holy Spirit and with fire. The Spirit shows you whats your idol and His fire burns it all.

For this to happen, the Lord says repent and turn away from your idols. Then the Lord will come and seize you by your heart, remove the idol, destroy it and He fill us to the brim an overwhelming overflowing of His abundant life into us! Why we need to identify the idols and allow God to destroy it because it is the very reason we are lost from Him, we are estranged from the Lord, His presence! There is a need that need to be meet! So what say you? Are we going to allow Him to remove and destroy?  The decision is at your hands. Therefore make a wise decision.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

The Lord has spoken...!

Ezekiel 12:25, 28 NKJV

For I am the Lord . I speak, and the word which I speak will come to pass; it will no more be postponed; for in your days, O rebellious house, I will say the word and perform it,” says the Lord God .’ ” Therefore say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God : “None of My words will be postponed any more, but the word which I speak will be done,” says the Lord God .’ ”

******
Shalom! Day #220. Do you know that the words that the Lord has spoken into your life will no longer be postponed but it shall be executed according to His timing, not too late not too early,  right on time? Let's pray. Father, we come before You today, as we fully commit to trust in Your words and Your plans for our lives, we pray that be it unto us according to Your plans and purposes.  For You have purposed it, planned it for us. In Jesus name we ask and we pray, amen!

I will say the word and I will perform it! Do not take lightly the words, the prophecies which the Lord has spoken into your life. Be it a prophecy, or a word of warning or a word of His plans for you; take it seriously and not playfully. When the Lord says that He will, it means HE WILL! Not according to our time but His. We, when the Lord speaks to us a good prophecy or word, we want it to happen as soon as possible, but if the Lord gives us a word of warning or rebuking, we tend to say Lord please delay it and bla bla bla. Yes, He do warn us and give us a grace period to repent and to return to Him.

In this word, we read that the Lord is warning the rebellious nation, Israel. The Lord is warning this generation today, our generation. The Lord has given us the grace period to repent and return to Him wholeheartedly. What measures are we taking to do so? Are we at ease of His words or are we taking it seriously and doing something about it? Does His word is like a burning fire in our bones? Burning so hot until we cannot handle it and we want to do something?  Let us get back to His word, to His presence,  to Him with a repented heart and allow Him to work through us. God is looking for a man and a woman to execute His plans for this generation. He is looking for a man and a woman to be His watchman for this generation.  The Lord is looking for YOU! Are you willing?

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

One Mighty Generation...!

Ezekiel 11:19-20 NKJV

Then I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them, and take the stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh, that they may walk in My statutes and keep My judgments and do them; and they shall be My people, and I will be their God.

******
Shalom!  Day #219. Do you know that God removes the stony heart and gives a new heart, made of flesh and His Spirit? Let's pray. Father, we pray give us clean hands, give us pure heart and let us not lift our souls to another. Let this be a  generation who seeks Your face, who sets the pace, and runs the race. Come and heal this generation,  Lord. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

One heart. One New spirit. One generation.  One God. Again,  it's a call for this generation to turn to God. Thus says the Lord,  I WILL GIVE THEM ONE HEART AND I WILL PUT A NEW SPIRIT. Revival begins from one person and it spreads to whole generation. A repented heart will not just receive grace and favor but a new heart and spirit from God. A spirit that would do great and mighty things for God. One Mighty Generation!

The best thing a generation can have is being HIS PEOPLE and He as their God! People are saying that we are the end times generation. A generation that's being prepared for the second coming of the Lord. Are we really ready for what is ahead of us? Let us walk in His statutes.  Do what He has commanded. And live our lives according to His plans and purposes. One mighty generation for God!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

I am watchman...!

Ezekiel 3:10, 17 NKJV

Moreover He said to me: “Son of man, receive into your heart all My words that I speak to you, and hear with your ears. “Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; therefore hear a word from My mouth, and give them warning from Me:

******
Shalom! Day #218. Do you know that God has appointed you to be the watchman for this generation? Let's pray. Father, we thank You for appointing us as well as entrusting us to be the watchman for this generation. Help us to be to a bridge to this generation, to be Your salt and light to this generation.  In Jesus name we ask and pray,  amen!

In order for healing and restoration to take place, first,  the word of God must be implanted into the hearts of this generation! Secondly, listen with our ears what the Lord is speaking to us. Thirdly, do what He says! We must have this openness of heart so that when God speaks, we are quick to listen and receive and do. There must be a direct implantation of His word into our hearts. And as His words is in our hearts,  we must allow the implementation of His word in our daily walk with Him. Every believers who allow the work of God in their lives through the Word of God will eventually discover their calling, the plans and purposes of God and the will of God for their lives.

Therefore the Lord says, I have made you a watchman for this generation! A watchman never sleeps. He watches overnight. Like a security guard, he stands on guard for the place or house, or wherever he has been placed with an alert mind. Therefore God is appointing us to be His watchman for this generation. To stand on guard with an alerted mind, being watchful in prayer. Praying against the principalities and the power of darkness. To stand on guard to warn this generation and to turn them back to God. So my question is simple. Are we willing to turn back to God first and allow Him to use us to be His honorable watchmen for this generation? The answer lies beneath you heart...!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

You shall speak My words...!

Ezekiel 2:7-8 NKJV

You shall speak My words to them, whether they hear or whether they refuse, for they are rebellious. But you, son of man, hear what I say to you. Do not be rebellious like that rebellious house; open your mouth and eat what I give you.”

******
Shalom! Day #217. Do you know that when the Lord has commanded us to do something, it is better to obey and to do it rather to suffer the consequences of our disobedience?  Let's pray. Father, as we come before You today, we pray that You will give us a heart that will never doubt You and Your word. Give us the courage and boldness to speak Your words,  lest we be found in rebellion toward Your word. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

You shall speak My words to them. One thing we must be aware of is, when we preach, makesure we speak what God wants us to speak. Not our flesh speaking but His Spirit through us. It is better to obey His words than to disobey. Whether the people wants to take heed of His word or not it's up to them. The refusal of the acceptance of His word is because of a rebellious heart. But You, says the Lord... you are to do as what He has spoken. Be the brigde to this generation. Proclaiming the word of prophecy with boldness. 

If you believe in God wholeheartedly, then you would be bold to digest anything the Lord gives you. Receiving His word and digesting it will eventually allow us to see His perfect plans for us. Which means the words He has spoken to us be it for general or for personal, if we take His word for word and begin to do something with it, we will began to see His plans for us as well as for this generation. Obeying His word and doing it. People are rebellious towards His words because they do not like corrections and rebuking feom the Lord. Therefore this generation is in need for bold people who will stand for the right cause of His word. To turn them back to God!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

A call for this generation...!

Lamentations 5:21 NKJV

Turn us back to You, O Lord , and we will be restored; Renew our days as of old,

******
Shalom!  Day #216. Do you know that a humbled generation is a generation that will be restored and renewed? Let's pray. Father, bring us back to You today. Forgive us for our sins, rebellion, pride. Forgive us for not acknowledging You as our God. As we humble ourselves before You and turn back to You today, come and restore, renew and heal us today. This generation must know Your salvation power. Open up Your heavens and pour down Your presence, Spirit, fire and Your power upon this generation. Let there be an urgency to repent in every hearts today. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

This is a prayer.  Calling this generation to come back to God. The Lord says, IF MY PEOPLE HUMBLE THEMSELVES, REPENT AND TURN TO ME WITH ALL THEIR HEARTS,  THEN I WILL COME AND HEAL THEIR LANDS AND RESTORE THEM. If we want to witness a greater move of His Spirit in our generation, we must humble ourselves before the Lord. Now this humbleness is not found in many believers today.  They claim to be humble, but in action NO. Humbleness and brokenness before God is the beginning of healing and restoration. Brokenness brings restoration in our lives. A sense of completion in God.

Restoration, renewal and healing happens when we turn to God wholeheartedly. Putting aside our pride, with bended knees, and lifting our hands to Him saying, LORD FORGIVE ME! Are we willing to come to Him with humbleness and brokeness, to stand in the gap for this spirituality dying generation? Come folks, this is a call for repentance and it only happens with you. Revival,  restoration, renewal and healing only happens when you are willing to turn back to God today.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Great is thy faithfulness...!

Lamentations 3:22-26 NKJV

Through the Lord ’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not. They  are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. “The Lord  is my portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I hope in Him!” The Lord  is good to those who wait for Him, To the soul who seeks Him. It  is good that one should hope and wait quietly For the salvation of the Lord .

******
Shalom! Day #215. Do you know that when you hope and wait upon the Lord, salvation come from Him because great is the faithfulness of God towards us? Let's pray. Father, a believing is what we ask of You. A heart that would wait upon You patiently and a heart that would trust You and hope in You no matter what the world may offer us. Let not our faith, hope and love towards You to waver. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

We are living in the age of new testament whereby we aren't bound by the law, but by grace of God. If we are living by the law now, I can assure you that none will escape from the wrath of God,  because of our sins. But because of His grace and mercies we are not consumed. Because His compassions fail not. Great is His faithfulness! He has given us a hope for living. For He is our hope and salvation. The Lord is our portion and in Him we have our security and safety.

The bible say in the book of Isaiah 40:30 that those who wait upon the Lord shall be renewed in their strength and spirit. The more we take time to wait upin Him, the more we would earnestly seek Him. And as we quietly wait upon Him  and hope in Him,  we shall witness His power of salvation in our lives. The resurrection which is at work in our lives. Great is His faithfulness...!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

I'm a weapon of mass destruction...!

Jeremiah 51:20 NKJV

“You  are My battle-ax and weapons of war: For with you I will break the nation in pieces; With you I will destroy kingdoms;

******
Shalom! Day #214. Do you know that God battles for us and that He uses you as His weapons? Let's pray. Father, thank You for using us as Your weapons. Lord, as we yield ourselves to You, we pray that You'll use us, sharpen us according to You will and purposes. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Wow, this is the first time I come across this word. It's like God is saying to me "hey son, you are My weapon.  I battle for you,  through you. I use you as my weapon in the battle." All this while I was thinking that He uses us to preach, win souls, pray for the sick and so on, but hey HE USES US AS HIS WEAPONS IN BATTLES. How God uses us as His weapons? We He uses us according to how He wants. We pray God use me, and true enough God uses us. Greatest weapon we have is prayer and faith as our shield. Your prayer bears much weight. It is  weapon of mass destruction.  Therefore, God uses us as we pray. You are a weapon in God's hand to "root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant."

God wants to use you,  but are you willing to do so? Being His vessels. And God says, "with you I will destroy kingdoms. " with you.... God works through you. So if you're willing to say here I am, use me... God will take you and make you into His finest weapon and use you to plunder hell and populate heaven!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

The pride of our heart...!

Jeremiah 49:16 NKJV

Your fierceness has deceived you, The pride of your heart, O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, Who hold the height of the hill! Though you make your nest as high as the eagle, I will bring you down from there,” says the Lord .

******
Shalom!  Day #213. Do you know that pride is the very reason why human fall? Let's pray. Father,  forgive us for being so prideful of the things we do, we have, we say. Lord teach us to humble ourselves to You first, then to one another. Father, let not our lives be controlled by pride of our heart, but be governed by Your humility and you grace. In Jesus name we ask and pray,  amen!

God has been speaking to me about the priden of our heart. I'm referring to bad kind of pride. Pride is God given. Pride in the good things of our life. Pride is God's glory in a person.  But when pride becomes a means to achieve its own end, then the pride becomes sin. I believe that God is in process to destroy pride in the hearts of the believers, because God knows that pride is a deadly weapon used by the devil to hinder people from repentance. Pride, the selfishness of heart. The BIG E.G.O beneath pride. It's a silent killer. I like watching Transformers the animated series.  The deceptions leader,  Megatron is filled with selfish ambitions in taking over cybertron and also the earth. But in the end, his pride brought him destruction.  Whereas Optimus Prime is full of humbleness and possesses a good leadership quality. Jesus is the Son of God, yet, He did not allow pride to take over His heart. He is the great example of a servant leader! Humbleness and submission to God the Father. Pride is a dangerous weapon that the devil infuses into a believers life. He or she is in danger zone if they aren't bothered about it. From pride comes destruction. Pride is te opposite of humbleness,  submission, obey. A person who profess to know Jesus, yet he or she denies it through their works. We can be Christians, but then if we care less about this spirit of pride, it will destroy us. We need to identify it and pray and let God to deliver us from this. It may be generational curse and not many know this truth. 

Pride keeps us from admitting sin. Pride blinds us to our faults. Pride is an obstacle to our faith in Jesus. Pride makes us self-righteous.  Pride is an ingredient in every argument.  Pride keeps us from asking others for help or advice. Knowingly or unknowingly each one of us do have this pride. What are we doing about it?

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
