Take the limits off

Tuesday, May 31st Take the limits off. “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,” Ephesians 3:20 Now when the Bible says God is able to do exceeding abundantly, the word abundantly means a superabundance or an overflow. So when you receive a vision from God it is going to blow off the limits of your thinking. Just like I shared with you yesterday, God told me to “Take His healing power to the nations.” Notice that the word nation is in plural. This means He...

To go beyond

Monday, May 30th To go beyond. “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,” Ephesians 3:20 When the Bible says in our opening scripture that God is able to do exceeding it means that God is able to 'go beyond', 'throw beyond the usual mark', 'to go beyond all presupposed limit', 'to go beyond all boundaries', etc. Now with the understanding of the word exceeding, think of a boy living in a one room apartment with his family in Warri, Delta State, Nigeria. Imagine...

Live for vision

Sunday, May 29th Live for vision. “And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, ...” Habakkuk 2:2 What is a vision? A vision is a revelation of God's plan and purpose for your life. A vision can also be defined as insight into the reason why you were born. I went to a website that trains people in becoming a success in business and I noticed that the man's driving force is to see to it that business people carry out their business in line with their purpose. I also discovered that there were people who were doing well in the job they...

Live for your purpose

Saturday, May 28th Live for your purpose. “GOD made everything with a place and purpose …” Proverbs 16:4(MSG) To become a true success in life, you must learn to guide your life by the purpose for which you were born and not by selfish ambition. I did a research on businesses and I discovered that most of the thriving businesses were businesses that were run based on a God's given vision or the individual believes that the business they are doing is the purpose for which they were born. Live for your purpose because God brought you into this...

Embrace God's plan

Friday, May 27th Embrace God's plan. “…I am the Lord your God, Who teaches you to profit, Who leads you in the way that you should go.” Isaiah 48:17(AMP) It has been said that man's plans has no guarantee of success but God's plans has no possibility of failure. Therefore for you to succeed you must submit to God's plans. God wants to do business with you and through you. God's ideas are always big ideas. It may start small but its latter end would greatly increase. God thinks big. For instance, he looked at the small group of people in a tiny...

Connect your business

Thursday, May 26th Connect your business. “Jacob vowed a vow: "If God stands by me and protects me on this journey on which I'm setting out, keeps me in food and clothing, and brings me back in one piece to my father's house, this GOD will be my God. This stone that I have set up as a memorial pillar will mark this as a place where God lives. And everything you give me, I'll return a tenth to you."”                      Genesis 28:20-22(MSG) Today, I want to teach you to partner with God...

Righteous prosperity

Wednesday, May 25th Righteous prosperity. “May the peoples praise you, O God; may all the peoples praise you! The land has produced its harvest; God, our God, has blessed us. God has blessed us; may all people everywhere honor him ...” Psalm 67:5-7(GNB) God prospers you to humble the world for His glory so that He can show off with your life. Your prosperity as a Christian makes God look good and gives good publicity for the kingdom of God. I remember the story of a Muslim landlord whose house was close to a church. Anytime any of his tenants...

Give to those in need

Tuesday, May 24th Give to those in need. “As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.” Galatians 6:10 I will like to share with you what I found out from a study I did concerning giving to the poor from the Bible; I found out that caring for those in need especially for those who are Christians secures your life from ever been in need. Proverbs 28:27(GNB) says, “Give to the poor and you will never be in need. If you close your eyes to the poor, many people will curse...

Prosperity with a Purpose

Monday, May 23rd Prosperity with a purpose. “But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.” 1 Timothy 5:8 One of the reasons God prospers you is for your needs to be met and for you to be able to take good care of your family. As God prospers you, He expects you to care for your family and those in your house. Proverbs 13:22 says, “A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children …” God also prospers you so that you can help the poor. Therefore...

Sunday, 22 May 2016

Prioritize the kingdom

Sunday, May 22nd Prioritize the kingdom. “But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.” Deuteronomy 8:18 The number one purpose of prosperity is to finance the kingdom of God. When you do not prioritize the kingdom of God as God prospers you, you will set yourself up for a downfall. This was the mistake the children of Israel made during the days of Haggai the Prophet; they left God's house to lie waste and they...

Biblical prosperity

Saturday, May 21st Biblical prosperity. “Remember, I will be with you and protect you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done all that I have promised you."”                   Genesis 28:15(GNB) Biblical prosperity is a result of supernatural influence. You must realize that God is enough; He is all you need, with Him you can have all your dreams come through. What He said to Jacob in our opening scripture is what He says to you today, “I will...

Increase your knowledge base

Friday, May 20th Increase your knowledge base. “Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established: And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.” Proverbs 24:3-4 One of the reasons why people are poor is because of a lack of productivity. One of the things you need to do in other for you to increase your level of productivity is to increase your knowledge base. You may need to get new skills. If need be you may need to go back to school or complete your education if you have not....

The right mindset

Thursday, May 19th The right mindset. “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: …” Proverbs 23:7 Your greatest limitation in your journey of advancement and prosperity is in your mind. This is why the Bible says, “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: …” So, how do you think concerning your provision? Do you see God as your source? Is that your mindset? This is important because your mindset decides from the outset the outcome of your life. When you observe the life of Joseph in the scriptures, you will notice that he never complained...

Money matters

Wednesday, May 18th Money matters. “Why spend money on what does not satisfy? Why spend your wages and still be hungry? Listen to me and do what I say, and you will enjoy the best food of all.” Isaiah 55:2(GNB) All true prosperity begins in the mind. The difference between the poor and the rich is their way of thinking or their mentality. When you put money in the hands of a poor man, all he thinks about is his needs and how to spend that money to meet his immediate needs. The mentality of the rich is different. When you put money in the hands...

Prosper in all realms

Tuesday, May 17th Prosper in all realms. “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” 3 John 1:2 Prosperity means more than money, but to most people prosperity is all about amassing money. Prosperity to them for the most part means financial prosperity alone but that is just one kind of prosperity because there are others. While the natural man focuses mainly on financial prosperity, it is important that we as believers excel in all the different kinds of prosperity which includes...

Take a real rest

Monday, May 16th Take a real rest. “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest.” Matthew 11:28(MSG) A lot of people complain about been stressed, and I know what it means to be there. Anytime I am stressed the Lord always makes me know that I am not leaning on Him. If you want to take a real rest, then lean on the Lord. Cast all your cares on Him because He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). Matthew 11:28(AMP) says, “Come to Me, all you who labor...

God wants you to prosper

Sunday, May  15th God wants you to prosper. “Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.” Isaiah 48:17 Our opening scripture shows us that God teaches us to profit and He leads us in the way that we should go. This means that when we are following the leadership of God's Spirit in our lives we will never fail. This is because God is interested in our success. There are lots of people who do not know that God is interested...

Stop complaining...

Saturday, May  14th Stop complaining … “These people complain, find fault, follow their own desires, say arrogant things, and flatter people in order to take advantage of them.” Jude 1:16(GW)   If any of the character mentioned in our opening scripture describes you it means you do not know God as your source, therefore you need to repent. The Bible admonishes us in Philippians 2:14(GW) “Do everything without complaining or arguing.” Why does God want us to do everything without complaining? It is because through complaining many...

Friday, 13 May 2016

God's prescriptions

Friday, May  13th God's prescriptions. “Moses asked the LORD for help, and the LORD told him to throw a piece of wood into the water. Moses did so, and the water became fit to drink.” Exodus 15:25(CEV) Who do you ask for help when you have challenges? Who is the first person you speak with when there is an emergency? In Exodus chapter 15 Moses had an emergency situation; the water that was available for the congregation of the children of Israel to drink was bitter, and they came to him complaining, demanding that he provide water for them...

Who is your source?

Who is your source? Thursday, May  12th “His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through the full knowledge of the one who called us by his own glory and excellence.” 2 Peter 1:3(ISV) For you to put your trust in any man to meet your needs, your heart has already departed from the Lord. There is no man who has the capacity to meet all your needs, demands and requirements. Only God has the capacity to supply all your needs, demands and all that you require for life and godliness. When you have such knowledge...

Do not trust money

Wednesday, May 11th Do not trust money. “Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;” 1 Timothy 6:17   Today, I want to charge you according to the Word of God not to put your hope and trust in money which is referred to in our opening scripture as uncertain riches. When you put your trust in money, you are putting confidence in an unstable foundation. Your faith should not be in the value of the currency of your nation...

Where is your trust?

Tuesday, May  10th Where is your trust? “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; …” Jeremiah 17:5-6 If you do not make God your source, you will miss your opportunities. Our opening scripture shows us that the man who does not make God is source will not see when good comes. Therefore, the day you begin to put your trust in any man for your well being, that is the day you...

Righteous heritage

Righteous heritage. Monday, May  9th “For to the person who pleases Him God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy; but to the sinner He gives the work of gathering and heaping up, that he may give to one who pleases God. This also is vanity and a striving after the wind and a feeding on it.” Ecclesiastes 2:26(AMP)   Our opening scripture shows us the reality of the wealth transfer that we should expect to come to us who are serving God in truth. Poverty is not a reflection of holiness. That is why when you study the Bible, you will discover...

Giving and receiving 2

Giving and receiving 2. Sunday, May 8th “I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35 Our Lord Jesus said that, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” The Contemporary English Version puts it this way, “… "More blessings come from giving than from receiving."” So the person who is more blessed is the giver. So, the giver will always be more blessed than those who do not give. The level at...

Giving and Receiving 1

Saturday,  May 7th Giving and receiving 1. “Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only. For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity. Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account. 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...

You and your prosperity

Friday, May 6th You and your prosperity. “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Mathew 6:33 To walk in financial abundance, you will have to rearrange your priorities. Your priorities determine your prosperity and your possessions. Therefore, if you are not prospering and living in abundance, it is important you ask yourself this question, “Is God truly first in my life?” 2 Chronicles 26:5 says, “And he sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions...

Why should you tithe?

Thursday, May  5th Why should you tithe? “Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it” Malachi 3:8-10 One practical way which shows that you truly...

The Blessing

Wednesday, May  4th The blessing. “The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.” Proverbs 10:22 To access financial abundance, you must recognize God as your source and only resource. According to Deuteronomy 8:18, He is the One that gives you the power to get wealth. If you look to a man as your source you are limited. It becomes worse for you if the man dies. Never look to any man as your source in your heart because the resource of man is not constant. The only constant source for your financial abundance...

God wants you to prosper

Tuesday, May  3rd God wants you to prosper. “Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.” Psalm 35:27 God is happy when you prosper. Therefore, you must realize that God wants you to prosper. It is not His will for you to keep on struggling to make ends meet for the rest of your life. So, for you to access financial abundance, you must change your thinking. Say aloud to yourself, “God wants me to prosper.” There...

Life in Abundance

Monday, May 2nd Life in abundance. “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10 According to our opening scripture, God wants us to have life more abundantly. The word abundantly in the Greek means, to overflow, superfluous, etc. Therefore, when we are talking about abundance we are talking about having more than enough. John 10:10 in the Amplified Bible says, “The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came...
