GODS ANSWERS TO PRAYER

WMP_205-Custom

Matthew 7:7
 

"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: Matthew 7:7"

 
God's answers to all our prayers are illustrated in the opening scripture. His answers are always sure and they are always "yes". He says that what we ask, He will give to us; when we seek, He will lead us to find it; and when we knock He will open unto us. 
 
The duty of God is to answer our prayers. On the other hand, our duty is to ask, seek, and knock. The levels of our prayers are ask, seek, and knock. When you ask and you are not satisfied, you seek; when you ask and seek, and you are not satisfied, you knock and you will be satisfied.
 

 Dearly beloved, do you apply these levels of prayer in your prayer life?

THE MIND A CHANNEL OF PEACE

WMP_190-Custom

Isaiah:26:3
 
"Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. Isaiah 26:3"
 
The scriptures have revealed another secret to believers in Christ Jesus about how to live a peaceful life. The opening scripture says the mind is an essential channel through which Christians can live in perfect peace. 
 
If your mind is fixed on Christ Jesus, you shall enjoy perfect peace; in other words, if you fill your mind with the holy scriptures, there will be perfect peace in your life. It is also a sign that you trust God simply because the mind is the control center of man.
 
 What a man thinks in his heart so is he, Proverbs 23:7. Peace is not just the absence of war; perfect peace is a place in Christ where you are at rest, and do not struggle for anything. 
 
Dearly beloved, do you want to cease from struggle? What do you think you must do?

THE PRESENCE OF GOD

WMP_110-Custom

Psalms 127:1
 

"Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. Psalms 127:1"

 
The scripture above is not discouraging the children of God from engaging the services of laborers, building contractors, watchmen, and security men.
 It is good to engage them but the acknowledgement that God oversees their work is vital, because their technical knowledge is limited.
 
 It is only God who has the perfect knowledge to build strong houses, and has the intelligence to secure the city. The work of laborers and watchmen becomes effective and efficient if both the laborers/watchmen and their employers seek God's blessings. 
 

Dearly beloved, do not think you can do it all by yourself, or you might work in vain. Talk to the Holy Spirit about it.

CONDITIONAL BLESSINGS

WMP_315-Custom

John:15:16
 
"Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to  you. John 15:16"
 
There are two kinds of blessings for the children of God: conditional blessings and unconditional blessings.
 Examples of unconditional blessings are salvation and grace; these are enjoyed by every Christian. 
 
The conditional blessings are those gotten by carrying out the desires and commandments of God. 
 
A typical example is in the opening scripture; Jesus Christ said we did not choose Him but He has chosen us to bear fruit. 
He further explained that if the fruit we have borne remain, the Father will give us whatsoever we ask. The fruit He is talking about is winning souls for Him. When you win a soul, use that soul as the basis for your request and God will grant you the request. 
 
Dearly beloved, you have been ordained by Christ Jesus to win souls, and you can do it. Kindly do it to enjoy uncountable blessings.
 
 Share with others what you have learnt from the above article.

PRAYER OF FAITH

WMP_224-Custom

James:5:14
 

"Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: James 5:14"

 
The opening scripture acknowledges that sickness does not come from God. It also exhorts believers in Christ Jesus to cultivate the habit of alerting church leaders to their difficulties, especially to attacks by the enemy so that the leaders can intercede on their behalf. 
 
We see that in the life of Jesus Christ of Nazareth; He healed the sick, delivered those who were possessed by demons, and gave power to His disciples to do the same. 
 

Dearly beloved, if you are facing any attack from the enemy, pray but do not forget to seek pastoral assistance.

YOUR NEEDS HAVE BEEN SUPPLIED

WMP_333-Custom

Philippians 4:19
 

"But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19"

 
Have you ever wondered why the Apostle Paul used the phrase "my God"? 
The Apostle Paul had an intimate relation with the true God, Elohim, such that he knew what God could do.
 
 Indeed, God had been his supplier and had made him a channel through whom anyone could be blessed. He also gave the people of Philippi the secret of attracting God's blessings: ministering to the needs of the conveyers of the Gospel of Christ.
 
 Lastly, he gave them the full assurance that their needs would be supplied by God; God is in the business of supplying needs so that He can supply our wants.
 
 Dearly beloved, do you know the difference between needs and wants?

LIVE PEACEABLY

WMP_198-Custom

Romans 12:18
"If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. Romans 12:18"
 
The opening scripture uses the term "as much as lieth in you" because peace is inherent in the believer in Christ Jesus.
 
 The Holy Spirit who comes to live in the believer in Christ Jesus comes with the virtue of peace. Since it is already inherent in you, what is needed is to cultivate it. 
 
The more you cultivate it, the more capable you become of always living at peace with all men. Always ask the Holy Spirit to develop patience in you because peace walks with patience.
 
 Dearly beloved, are you a peace-loving person?

THE CALL TO REST

image1

Matthew: 11:28

"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28"

 
If worldly people understood the Gospel, they would run for salvation. 
 
Worldly people are laboring in sin and are heavily laden by it; they need Jesus Christ to save them. 
 
The yoke of Jesus is easy because we become joint heirs with Jesus Christ when we believe in the Gospel. 
He then gives us a discerning heart to learn from Him.
 
 As we learn in meekness and lowness of heart, we find rest for our souls in Him. His yoke is His righteousness, humility, assignment, and truthfulness which is easy and light to practice.
 
 Dearly beloved, .

why do you think worldly people do not want to receive Christ?

LOOK UNTO GOD

WMP_193-Custom

Ephesians 4:32"

"And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:32"

 
Jesus Christ, the author and finisher of our faith, was kind, tenderhearted, and forgiving. He exhibited these qualities when He started His ministry; even on the cross He forgave all those who were involved in His crucifixion. 
 
The eleven disciples had these qualities, except Judas Iscariot. Steven was kind, tenderhearted, and forgiving; he forgave those who stoned him to death, among whom was the Apostle Paul under the name of Saul.
 
 The ministry of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in the church and in the world will be severely limited without the qualities of kindness, tenderheartedness, and forgiveness. The children of God have these qualities inherent in them; what they need to do is to cultivate them.
 
 Let us be open-minded and seize every opportunity to demonstrate our kindness, tenderheartedness, and forgiving attitudes. 
 
Dearly beloved, how far have you demonstrated the above qualities?

THE DAY OF ADVERSITY

WMP_259-Custom

"If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small. Proverbs 24:10"

 
Scripture has acknowledged that there is a day of adversity: it is a day of highest opposition from the kingdom of darkness; a day when God allows the kingdom of darkness to tempt man.
 
 Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ had His day of adversity, when the kingdom of darkness was allowed to crucify Him. Nonetheless, the strength of Christ grew even stronger, to overturn death by bringing resurrection, and totally defeat the devil and his cohorts of darkness. Job had his day of adversity; his wife even asked him to curse God and die, but Job kept his integrity towards God. Finally, Job overcame his trial and was restored twice over. 
 
Every Christian will face their day of adversity and God expects His children to always triumph over adversity. 
 
The scriptures, the Holy Spirit, the blood of Jesus, the name of Jesus, holiness, grace, prayer, etc are some of the tools or weapons to overcome adversity. 
 

Dearly beloved, do not fail on the day of adversity because you have enough weapons to win. Hallelujah!

JESUS CHRIST IS TIMELESS

image4

Hebrews:13:8

"Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. Hebrews 13:8"

 
Mankind and other creations are affected by time: as day and night go by, mankind and other creations change. Mankind and other living things grow old and pass away. 
Other creations that are not living things are affected by wear and tear or the passage of time. 
 
But Jesus Christ is not affected by time: in fact, He created time and can alter it. The opening scripture is simply explaining that Jesus Christ is God, because it is only God who remains the same and is not affected by time. Indeed, Jesus Christ is eternal. As believers in Christ Jesus, if time is going against us, we have someone to call to alter time in our favor; that person is Jesus Christ of Nazareth. 
 
He can also cause certain events to repeat themselves, which is why it is sometimes said that history repeats itself.
 
 Dearly beloved, do you want time to favor you? You know who to call!

EASIER TO DO

WMP_292-Custom

Mark:2:9
 

"Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk? Mark 2:9"

 
Jesus Christ asked the scribes a question when they reasoned in their heart that Jesus could not forgive sins. But Jesus Christ demonstrated that He could forgive sins by healing the sick of the palsy. 
 
Jesus demonstrated that it was easier to forgive sins than to perform miracles. He is therefore teaching us that we should find it easy to forgive people who wrong us; if we harbor unforgiveness in us, it will hinder our blessings.
 
 He is also teaching us to do the easier things first before thinking about the difficult ones.
 

 Dearly beloved, do you find it easy to forgive those who offend you?

CAST THEM ON JESUS

WMP_113-Custom

1 Peter:5:7

"Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 1 Peter 5:7"

Some people come to Christ Jesus and still carry their burdens. 
This is so because they are still ignorant of the scriptures. 
However, by knowing of the opening scripture they will no longer carry their burdens but cast them upon Jesus.
 
 Sometimes we go through unnecessary challenges because we do not know our inheritance in the Word of God. 
 
The bible has answers for all the questions we have; the bible also has all the solutions to the challenges that come our way. 
 
What we need to do is to search the scriptures for answers and solutions. 
As we go on with our daily routines, let us not carry any burden; we have Jesus Christ who is prepared to carry our burdens for us so that we can be free to do His work, Matthew 11:28. 
 
Dearly beloved, are you still carrying any burdens?

Cast them on Jesus!

RESPECT FOR LEADERSHIP

image6

 

2 Timothy:2:7

"Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things. 2 Timothy 2:7"

 
In the kingdom of God there are several principles of success.
 When these principles are followed to the letter, success is inevitable.
 Our respect for leadership in the church is what the Apostle Paul has brought to light. 
 
When we consider what the leadership of the church says, God gives us understanding in all things.
 In other words, when we respect our church leaders and diligently follow them in the scriptures, God gives us understanding in all our endeavors.
 
 However, when we rebel against their leadership, we will fail in all our endeavors because of lack of understanding.
 

 Dearly beloved, what is your attitude towards your church leader?

GOOD COMPANIONS

WMP_139-Custom

Job:22:21
 

"Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee. Job 22:21"

 
Friendship has several advantages and blessings in life. Friendship can also bring severe disadvantages and misfortunes.
 
 The kind of friends you have will determine whether you will enjoy blessings or curses.
 The opening scripture exhorts us to befriend God and be at peace with Him, and His goodness will become our inheritance. 
 
The closer we are to God, the more glorious we will be. As children of God, let us choose friends who will bring us closer to God and godliness so that we can always enjoy the goodness of God.
 

 Dearly beloved, how do you choose your friends?

ATTRACTING GODS ATTENTION

WMP_238-Custom

"In that night did God appear unto Solomon, and said unto him, Ask what I shall give thee .2 Chronicles 1:7"
 
King Solomon attracted God's attention when he offered a thousand burnt offerings upon the altar of God.
 God told Solomon to ask for whatever he pleased and Solomon asked for wisdom and knowledge to judge the people of God. 
 
God fulfilled Solomon's request and added riches, wealth, and honor. Solomon knew what to ask for because his father, King David, had educated him to make the right request from God, Proverbs 4:3-5.
 
 Dearly beloved, let us give God the best of what we have and we will attract His attention and blessings, hallelujah. 
 

GOD BLESS YOU ALL

TRANSFERABLE POWER

WMP_323-Custom

LUKE: 6: 19
 
And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all. Luke 6:19"
 
The power of the Holy Spirit is transferable; the Holy Spirit can move from one place to another. Jesus was full of the power of the Holy Spirit in such a way that every part of His body could heal the sick; even His clothes could heal the sick,
 Mark 6:56. The Holy Spirit worked in the life of His disciples with the same power, so Paul prayed over handkerchiefs and aprons and the sick were healed by these handkerchiefs and aprons; even demons fled upon coming into contact with these handkerchiefs and aprons.
 
 The Apostle Peter was so filled with the Holy Spirit that even his shadow healed the sick, Acts 5:15.
 
 The Holy Spirit is still using people mightily today; He could even use you if you allow Him so to do.
 

GOD  BLESS YOU ALL

PRAY FOR YOUR ENEMIES

WMP_295-Custom

MATTHEW 5; 44

"But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; Matthew 5:44"

 
Jesus Christ asked His disciples to love their enemies. Have you asked yourself what enemies Jesus Christ is asking His disciples to love? Of course, Jesus is not asking His disciples to love the devil and his children.
There are people who seem to oppose us or hate us but when we love them, they will have a change of heart and receive the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Furthermore, we have been blessed to be a blessing so we cannot curse; we need to show the world that we are of a different spirit. Lastly, pray for those who have been deceived into despitefully using and persecuting us; when we pray for them, the evil power behind their actions is dealt with and they are converted unto the LORD.
Christians have a duty to pray for discernment to know the enemies they are to love, bless, and pray for so they can avoid unnecessary challenges. Dearly beloved,

LIVING IN FAITH

WMP_322-Custom

"And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise. Luke 8:54"
 
The ruler of the synagogue, Jairus, had a daughter who was very sick. 
He pleaded with Jesus Christ to come and heal his daughter. 
Whilst Jesus was on the way, the daughter was reported dead but Jesus told Jairus to believe that all things are possible to he who believes.
 When Jesus Christ and Jairus got home, all the people were wailing but Jesus comforted them, saying that the child was not dead but sleeping. 
 
The people stopped wailing and laughed at Jesus Christ's words of faith.
 Jesus turned all of them out of the house except Peter, James, John, and Jairus. He turned them out to maintain his faith in God, and called the little girl to life. 
 
As believers in Christ Jesus, try as much as possible to maintain your faith by moving only with those who have the same faith as you; get rid of all the people in your life who are bent on creating doubt in you, so that you can make progress. 
 

Dearly beloved, are you in company with people who have the same faith as you?

GOD IS YOUR STRENGTH

WMP_268-Custom

"I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. Philippians 4:13"

 

I cannot do this or that is definitely a language used by those in the world. It is not a language of the children of God: Jesus Christ has given the children of God the power to succeed in all things. The "can-do spirit" is the doctrine every Christian must be taught; the utterance of every Christian is transformed upon coming into contact with the doctrine of the "can-do spirit". When you declare to yourself that you can do it, the Holy Spirit takes your words and gives you the inner strength to accomplish whatever you have purposed to accomplish. Dearly beloved, what do you seek to achieve? The grace of God is available to you in Christ Jesus to accomplish that task. Hallelujah!
