HIS VICTORY IS OURS
And they overcame him by the blood

of the Lamb, and by the word of their
testimony; and they loved not their
lives unto the death
(Revelation 12:11).
T he verse above reveals an important spiritual

principle: the Apostle John saw in the visions of
the Spirit that as God’s people made confessions of the
Word and declared their testimony of truth—with their
faith in the blood of Jesus Christ and its significance in
the New Testament—they overcame the adversary, and
the angels won the fight (Revelation 12:7-10).
The implication is that the fight in the realm of
the spirit is won or lost as a result of what we do in
the earth. Therefore, keep bearing your testimony of
Christ, affirming the Word of God and taking the Holy
Communion. That’s how to maintain your victory and
keep reigning in life through Jesus Christ. The Bible
says, “…they which receive abundance of grace and
of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one,
Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:17).
He told us in John 16:33, “…be of good cheer; I
have overcome the world.” Reiterating the victorious
life we’ve received in Him, the Apostle John tells us,
“For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the
world…” (1 John 5:4). He gave us the victory, and
6
it’s for us to walk in the light of that victory. You’ve
overcome the world and its wickedness, its falsities
and fears, its deceptions, systems and economics.
Hallelujah!
Satan and his minions have no right to run
rampage, wreak havoc or perpetrate evil in your life
and environment; they have no jurisdiction in your
“aion.” Jesus told us to cast out demons (Matthew
10:8). So, cast out demons everywhere and anywhere
they rear their ugly heads. In God’s prophetic book, it’s
been stated that we won, and so we’re walking in the
victory that’s been given to us in the Name of Jesus.
Proclaim the victory of Christ in your home,
over your body, over your family, ministry, business,
and everything related to you. Proclaim His victory
over your city, nation and the nations of the world.
Remember, Jesus is Lord over all; all power has been
given to Him in heaven and in earth; and we’re
partakers of His glory, dominion, greatness, victory and
power. His victory is ours. Glory to His Name forever!
PRAYER
I come against the structures, systems and schemes
employed by Satan to propagate his deception and
fear in the nations; these structures are overthrown,
and I proclaim victory for God’s people and the
nations of the world, in the Name of Jesus. Amen.

THE TEMPLE OF HIS GLORY
Know ye not that ye are the temple of

God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth
in you? (1 Corinthians 3:16).
W hen some people talk about the glory of

God that they hope to see, maybe in their
meetings, or during their times of fellowship or in their
personal lives, their expectations are mostly preempted
by their lack of understanding of the Scriptures. They
make such statements as, “Lord, manifest yourself and
let your glory envelop this gathering.”
By that, they’re expecting some sort of physical
manifestations of some kind, just as they had in the Old
Testament. They expect a supernatural cloud above
their heads, some lightnings in the room, or maybe
some thunder, a deep voice, etc. Don’t live in the realm
of the senses. Don’t expect to somehow see the glory
of God on the outside so you can say, “Wow, the Lord
was in our midst today!” Why should you be looking
for some kind of manifestations as they had in the Old
Testament? As long as you have that kind of mindset,
you’re going to live your life expecting something that
God is done with and has termed “the lesser glory.”
All of the glory that the Holy Spirit manifested in
8
the Old Testament—the voice, the light, the amazing
sights, etc—are all inside you now. The glory is in you
now! The Apostle Paul so succinctly puts it; he said,
“But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the
excellency of the power may be of God, and not of
us” (2 Corinthians 4:7).
Colossians 1:27 says the mystery of Christianity
and the glory thereof is Christ in you. The glory of God
is resident in your spirit. You’re a God-carrying vessel.
Think that way. Your presence in a place means the
glory of God has manifested in that place. That’s part
of what it means to be the temple of the Holy Spirit.
In the Old Testament, the glory was in the temple;
and you’re that temple today—the temple of His glory.
Blessed be God!
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for your glory and
righteousness that are fully resident in my spirit. I
impact my world with your presence, and spread
the bounties of your beauty, perfection and grace
to everything and everyone around me. From the
inner recesses of my spirit, I bring forth blessings to
improve my world, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

MAKE PRAYER A LIFESTYLE

In the same way, prayer is essential in
this ongoing warfare. Pray hard and
long. Pray for your brothers and sisters.
Keep your eyes open. Keep each other’s
spirits up so that no one falls behind or
drops out (Ephesians 6:18 MSG).
G iving time to prayer is very important. There’re

times and certain situations that don’t
require you to pray for a protracted period. There’re
other times and situations that require importunity,
heartfelt continuity in prayer. Both are very important,
depending on what you’re dealing with. But the bottom
line is that as a Christian, prayer must be a lifestyle.
The reason for prayer isn’t to convince God that
you’re really serious about your objective for praying.
Rather, it’s about what spending time in fellowship
with Him does in your spirit. Give your best times, your
most productive moments, to praying. Try not to be in
a hurry during your prayer times, because sometimes,
even when you think you’re done praying, the Holy
Spirit might still want you to continue. He may bring
words to you with which to pray. Remember, He has
a ministry in our lives; He’s the One who teaches us
how to pray.
When we pray, we don’t always know everything
we’re supposed to say about certain situations. But
God, through the Holy Spirit, teaches us what to say
and how to pray correctly and effectively. That’s why
10
giving time and attention in prayer is important. Give
attention to praying in tongues; don’t be distracted.
When it’s time to pray, have the discipline to
keep everything else aside. The more other things
try to distract you, the more you should focus and
keep praying. Let your spirit receive that discipline;
then, you’ll achieve the primary purpose of prayer,
which is the conditioning of your spirit and mind until
God’s thoughts become your thoughts, and His words
become your words. The specific, creative word on
your lips that the Spirit brings to you at such moments
of prayer produces result.
Few minutes of prayer isn’t sufficient to condition
your spirit. You need to give God time and attention.
In prayer, certain things are done to you and in you by
the Holy Spirit; you’re so conditioned and transfigured
that your way of talking, your choice of words, your
character and behaviour are affected. Make yourself
available for that conditioning to take place as you
make prayer a lifestyle.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of fellowship
with you through the Spirit in prayer. Thank you for
the privilege to side with you and enforce your will in
the earth and exercise dominion over circumstances,
Satan and his cohorts of darkness, in Jesus’ Name.
Amen.

IT’S ABOUT YOUR MIND
And be not conformed to this

world: but be ye transformed by the
renewing of your mind…
(Romans 12:2).
W hen you were born again, you were

imparted with the very life and nature of
God at its best, and it can’t be improved. Plus that, you
were given the very righteousness of God to which
you can’t add. Also, you received the Holy Spirit in His
full measure; nothing missing or left out. Furthermore,
you’re inside the Kingdom; you’re a bona fide heavenly
citizen NOW (Philippians 3:20 NIV).
We’ve all received the same nature of God,
and the same Holy Spirit. We’re born into the same
Kingdom, and dealt the same measure of faith; so, why
the disparity in our lives and in our results? The reason
must then rest in something else: the power and use
of our individual minds!
If you’re going to change—if you’re going to see
another you, a more influential, effective, powerful
you—you must change your way of thinking. There
must be a significant change in your mind. That you’ve
become a Christian or received the Holy Spirit doesn’t
mean your reasoning will change. That effort is your
responsibility.
As read in our theme verse, God gave us the
responsibility to change our way of thinking, to renew
12
our minds with the Word of God. You have to literally
submit yourself to the Word to change your mind and
give you a new way of thinking.
It doesn’t matter that a Christian is quoting
Scriptures; as long as those scriptures haven’t affected
his mind, he’s not going to be different. That’s why
we wrote the book “The Power of Your Mind.” The
purpose of that book is in the title.
Everything about your life, including your Christian
growth, has a lot to do with the use of your mind.
So, ingest God’s Word into your mind; feed and
meditate on the Word. The guaranteed impact will be
a transformation in your whole being that’ll result in
increased manifestation of the glory of God in your life!
Success, excellence, victory, dominion and abundance
will be the hallmark of your daily life. Hallelujah!
CONFESSION
I’m constantly transformed by the renewing of my
mind with the Word. I yield myself to the ministry
of the Word, getting my spirit inundated with divine
truths and my mind elevated to think Kingdom
thoughts. I have a new mindset, resulting in increased
manifestation of the glory of God in my life! The Word
has given me the mindset of success, excellence,
victory, dominion and abundance. Hallelujah!

CALLING THINGS INTO BEING
And Jesus answered him, saying, It is

written, That man shall not live by bread
alone, but by every word of God
(Luke 4:4).
E very child of God has to learn to call things

into being. The Bible says God “...calleth those
things which be not as though they were” (Romans
4:17). What is it that you require in your life? You can
call it forth! Otherwise, it may never happen. But then,
for your calls of faith to produce results, you must be
a man or woman of prayer.
Prayer brings your spirit to a certain condition
that makes your fellowship with God more real and
synchronized. You become synchronized with His
will and purpose; the thoughts of God become your
thoughts; His words become your words.
Some people wonder why they quote Scriptures
in the face of adversity and nothing happens. It’s not
just the quoting of a scripture that produces results;
it’s aligning one’s mind and heart with that scripture
you’re quoting that works; it makes what you say go
beyond how far your voice can travel.
14
At the time of prayer, let your mind be open and
alert to God, to what He’s going to say to you. What
He’ll say to you may not even be related to your
requests, but whatever He says is what you need.
Therefore, listen for His words in your spirit. It was
His Word that created the whole world, and through
His Word you can change the world. With that word
in your mouth, you can call things forth and change
the circumstances of your life and your world. Glory
to God!
CONFESSION
In John 8:47, Jesus said, “He who is of God hears
God’s words….” I’m born of God; therefore, I receive
God’s Word for every situation. As I speak in tongues
today, my spirit is fine-tuned to God’s frequency, and
I receive the word that I require for a change. I walk
in prosperity, victory, strength and health. I declare
in the Name of the Lord Jesus that Satan’s influence
in the nations is cut off, and demonic activities in the
nations are paralyzed. Hallelujah!

CHRIST IS THE FINAL ANSWER
For all of God’s promises have been

fulfilled in Christ with a resounding
“Yes!” And through Christ, our “Amen”
(which means “Yes”) ascends to God for
his glory (2 Corinthians 1:20 NLT).
I f a Christian has the wrong idea or perception

about God, he or she will believe the wrong
things, think the wrong thoughts and say the wrong
things. Inevitably, his way of life will be wrong. Consider
for a moment Christians who don’t understand that
there’s a huge difference between the Old Testament
and the New Testament, and as a result, they’re always
calling on God to “fulfil” His promises!
For such folks, their expectations will be wrong,
because such expectations are premised on the wrong
understanding of the Scriptures. “Holding on” to God’s
promises or “waiting on Him” to fulfil His promises is
a pointless endeavour; it’s a mistake. This is because
all the promises of God have been fulfilled in Christ.
That’s what we read in our theme verse.
Christ is the final answer. Christ means all promises
fulfilled! In Christ, we have all things: “His divine
power has given us everything we need for a godly life
through our knowledge of him who called us by his
own glory and goodness” (2 Peter 1:3 NIV). Whatever
16
you think you’re in need of is already yours in Christ.
Don’t say you’re waiting on God to fulfil His
promise of healing you; rather, declare that you’re in
health because He gave you divine life. No sickness
can thrive in your body because you’re born of God.
Glory to God! No matter what you pray about today,
God has no answer outside Christ, outside turning you
to the Word. Remember, all His works were finished
from the foundation of the world (Hebrews 4:3).
So, when you have a desire, God’s response
through the Holy Spirit is to guide you into the reality
of what’s already yours: “Now we have received, not
the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God;
that we might know the things that are freely given to
us of God” (1 Corinthians 2:12). The thirteenth verse
tells you what you’re supposed to do once they’ve
been revealed to you: speak them; call them forth:
“Which things also we speak…” Hallelujah!
CONFESSION
With my mouth, I shape my life and future to
completely synchronize with God’s divine provisions
and destiny for me! I have an excellent, glorious and
triumphant life, enjoying everything that the death,
burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ made available
for me. Glory to God!

HONOUR, DIGNITY AND EXCELLENCE
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ,

the Father of glory, may give unto you
the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the
knowledge of him (Ephesians 1:17).
T he Christian life is a call to glory and virtue;

that means a call to a life of honour, dignity
and excellence. You’ve been honoured, dignified and
glorified; and the one who did it is God Almighty.
Nothing can bring shame to you. Jesus took away
every shame from your life. The Bible says, “Looking
unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who
for the joy that was set before him endured the cross,
despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand
of the throne of God” (Hebrews 12:2).
You are the joy that was set before Him that made
Him endure the Cross, despising the shame. Today,
you’re without reproach. Hallelujah! Colossians 1:21-
22 says, “And you, that were sometime alienated
and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now
hath he reconciled In the body of his flesh through
death, to present you holy and unblameable and
unreproveable in his sight.” Think about that!
2 Peter 1:3 says, “According as his divine power
18
hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life
and godliness, through the knowledge of him that
hath called us to glory and virtue.” In his previous
epistle in 1 Peter 1:11, he talked about the sufferings
of Christ and the glory that should follow. Give yourself
no option but to live a life of glory, honour and dignity,
irrespective of hardships, injustice or persecutions;
Christ in you, the hope of glory! Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the grace to shine and
reign gloriously in life through righteousness. I show
forth your praises and manifest your glory in the
earth. My life is that of glory and excellence, devoid
of reproach, contempt, aversion, sin and its attendant
effects, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

HE SEEKS YOUR FAITHFULNESS
…But every man hath his proper gift of
God, one after this manner, and another
after that (1 Corinthians 7:7).
I n Matthew 25, Jesus talked about three servants

who were entrusted with talents. One was
entrusted with one talent, another with two talents,
and the third, five talents (Talent being a weight
measuring standard, usually of money, e.g. talents of
silver). The talents were given to them on the basis of
their abilities. So, what their master was looking out
for was their faithfulness.
The one who got five talents came back with
100% success (Matthew 25:20). The one that was
given two talents gained two more, which was also
100% (Matthew 25:22). But the servant that was given
one talent was a disappointment to his master. He said,
“Master, I know you very well; you like to reap where
you didn’t sow; therefore, I kept your talent for you”
(Matthew 25:24). He did nothing with it.
Evidently, he was a bellyacher. His life was never
productive. He had only the ability to manage one
talent, and he still ruined his chances. His master called
him wicked and unprofitable because he desired him to
be faithful. It’s the same with the Lord. As read in our
theme verse, we’re all so uniquely graced and gifted
by God, and He seeks faithfulness; He expects results.
You may wonder, “How do I know what’s
22
expected of me?” It’s simple: You know what’s
expected of you by what you’ve been told. The ability
of God is given through His message; His Word. What
did He expose you to? What information did He give
you? When you analyze what He’s told you, you’ll
understand His expectation of you.
Whatever the Lord has taught you or is teaching
you, whatever He’s exposed you to and helped you
to know are all for the furtherance of the Gospel.
Therefore, find the opportunity to use them to advance
His righteousness and the reign of His Kingdom in the
earth.
Remember, He tests your faithfulness. If you’re
faced with certain challenges or difficulties in carrying
out what He’s asked you to do, your only option should
be to win! Don’t have excuses. Be fully committed
to the furtherance of the Gospel. Remain steadfast,
unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the
Lord. Surely, at the end of all things, the Lord will say to
you, “...Well done, thou good and faithful servant…”
(Matthew 25:21).
CONFESSION
The Lord has blessed me with abundant graces in
Christ for the furtherance of the Gospel, and I’ll be
faithful. My life is for His glory and the expansion of
His glorious Kingdom and spread of His righteousness
in the earth. Amen.

THEY HAVE TO ANSWER THEIR NAME
And these signs shall follow them that

believe; In my name shall they cast
out devils; they shall speak with new
tongues (Mark 16:17).
O nce, I asked a devil to come out of a certain

fellow and the devil said, “I’m not going”
and turned violent. The ushers were trying to hold the
man back, but I beckoned on them to leave him. As
he charged at me angrily, I remained calm and said,
“You’re gone!” Suddenly, the man became very calm
and fell down as the devil left him.
One of the officials who was with me later said to
me, “Pastor, I don’t understand exactly what happened.
You asked the devil to go, but he didn’t go. Then you
said, ‘You’re gone’ and then he went out.” So, I said,
“Well, every word of God is a name; and what He says
is what becomes.”
We find a very inspiring, similar scenario with
Jesus in Mark 7:25-30. A Syrophenician woman had
come to Jesus and besought Him to cast the devil out
of her daughter. Jesus said to her, “…go thy way; the
devil is gone out of thy daughter” (Mark 7:29). That
devil had to answer the name that Jesus just called
him— “…is gone out.”
The Bible says the woman got home and found
24
the devil was gone from her daughter. Sometimes,
you need to know how to address demons when you
cast them out. There’re times you’re led of the Spirit
to say to that devil, “Come out and return no more.”
Even in praying against their activities in the
nations, it’s important to say the right things: cut off
their influence on your nation and tell them, “You’re
gone from this nation! Your influence has been broken;
your dominion has been stopped!” Hallelujah!
Someone said what we see around the world now
(referring to the activities of devils) are mere kicks of
a dying horse. But we’re full of power and have the
dominion over them. They’re frustrated, and paralyzed;
their works have been brought to nothing. We’re
triumphant; we’re victorious; we’re reigning through
Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit over Satan and
his cohorts of darkness. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the authority granted us
in Christ with which we exercise dominion over Satan
and his demons. Their influence is cut off from the
nations! We put an end to their rampage. The Church
is triumphant, reigning through Christ in the earth by
the power of the Holy Spirit, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

ONE SPIRIT WITH HIM
For we are members of his body, of his
flesh, and of his bones
(Ephesians 5:30).
I n John 15:5, Jesus said, “I am the vine, ye are

the branches….” That’s a description of oneness;
the same message communicated in our theme verse.
The word “members” in our theme verse is the Greek
“melos” and it means limbs, like you have your hands
and your legs; we’re the limbs of His body!
1 Corinthians 6:15 breaks it down even further. It
says, “Know ye not that your bodies are the members
of Christ?...” This is referring to the Church; it means
your very legs are Jesus’ legs! Your hands are His
hands; your body is the physical extension of Christ
in the world. An understanding of this will give you a
new mindset about who you really are. You couldn’t
be one with Him and be sickly. You couldn’t be one
with Him and have failed organs. His life in you perfects
you through and through.
The same message is detailed in 1 Corinthians
12:27: ”Now ye are the body of Christ, and members
in particular.” That means you’re definite members;
describable members. Hallelujah! You occupy a special
place, a recognizable place, in the body of Christ. This
is extraordinary!
In driving the point home, the Apostle Paul had
said in Ephesians 5:28, “So ought men to love their
wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife
loveth himself.” He’s saying when two people are
26
married, their bodies belong to each other. Then
he tells us in 1 Corinthians 6:15 that our bodies are
members of Christ, which means your body belongs
to Jesus Christ.
Paul describes it as something far stronger than
a marital relationship when he says, “But he that is
joined unto the Lord is one spirit” (1 Corinthians 6:17).
This means that Christ has a right over your body and
you have a right to His body. But since His body is in
heaven, Paul says if you’re joined to the Lord, you’re
one spirit because through the spirit, you can make
available to your body the glories of His resurrected
body. Hallelujah!
Now you can better understand when the Bible
says, “...Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Colossians
1:27). Live every day with the consciousness of your
oneness with Jesus Christ.
CONFESSION
I’m a member of His body, of His flesh and of His
bones! I walk in the consciousness that I’m in oneness
with Jesus Christ. And through the spirit, I make
available to my body the glories of His resurrected
body. No sickness, disease or infirmity can thrive in
my body, because I’m joined to the Lord and one
spirit with Him. Divinity is at work in me. Glory to
God!

KNOW AND WALK IN HIS LIGHT

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye
may be able to stand against the wiles of
the devil (Ephesians 6:11).
T he word “wiles” in our opening verse is

translated from the Greek “methodeia,” which
refers to trickery. Trickery is primarily defined as a
verbal misrepresentation. It’s when something is said
with the intention to mislead and take advantage of
someone for some purpose. That’s like what happens
on the news sometimes. We know who’s behind this
trickery; it’s none other than the devil, whom the Bible
calls the slanderer and traducer (Ephesians 6:11).
A better expression than trickery, however, is
“lying in wait.” We find this same expression used
in Ephesians 4:14: “That we henceforth be no more
children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with
every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and
cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to
deceive.” This is “methodeia”: lying in wait for the
purpose of deception.
Satan’s modus operandi is based on deception
with misrepresentations. The biggest strategy with
which he enforces this agenda is misinformation
through the news media. As a Christian, you shouldn’t
be ignorant of this. Ephesians 5:6 says, “Let no man
28
deceive you with vain words: for because of these
things cometh the wrath of God upon the children
of disobedience.”
This is why you ought to know and walk in
God’s truth—His light. Jesus said “…I am the light of
the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in
darkness, but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12).
In other words, when you walk in His light, you’ll never
be deceived. Give yourself to the study of God’s Word.
His Word illumines your path and enlightens your heart
and mind such that you’re never deceived or in the
dark. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the instructions in your
Word. I’m firmly rooted and grounded in your
Word and guided by your truth in Christ Jesus. I
live over and above Satan and his deceptions and
manipulations, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

PRAYING FOR ALL MEN
I exhort therefore, that, first of all,

supplications, prayers, intercessions, and
giving of thanks, be made for all men
(1 Timothy 2:1).
T he underlined portion of our opening verse

suggests that the sentence is a continuation of
a subject earlier introduced. The most relevant context
is found in the 18th verse of the preceding chapter,
where Paul writes to Timothy, saying: “This charge
I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the
prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by
them mightest war a good warfare” (1 Timothy 1:18).
The next two verses are a brief digression, after which
Paul continues, “I exhort therefore….”
So Paul was actually showing Timothy how to war
a good warfare. He said, “…first of all, supplications,
prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made
for all men.” “First of all” means this is priority in
warring a good warfare. You begin by praying, not for
your personal requests, but for all men.
For a long time, a number of God’s people weren’t
praying with this in mind. Many were more concerned
about their personal agenda and what they wanted
from God such as money, property, fame and other
earthly things. The adversary took advantage of this for
a long time to wreak havoc in different nations, but
thank God the Church has learnt and is now awake to
her responsibilities. We’re acting on the Word, praying
first for all men.
30
We’ve been called to war a good warfare and
the instruction is clear. He says, “First of all,” meaning
before you pray for other things—be it your family,
business, finances and so on—pray for all men. How
important this is! In fact, it ought to be a foundational
teaching in the Churches. As we lead souls to Christ
and bring them to Church, we ought to let them know
they have an enemy whose goal it is to destroy them.
We must teach them to pray as soldiers, not for their
personal needs, but for all men.

PARTNERS WITH HIM
THROUGH PRAYER
I exhort therefore, that, first of all,
supplications, prayers, intercessions,
and giving of thanks, be made for all
men…For this is good and acceptable
in the sight of God our Saviour; Who
will have all men to be saved, and
to come unto the knowledge of the
truth (1 Timothy 2:1-4).
T he different kinds of prayer mentioned

in our opening text cover all the kinds of
prayer you ought to pray for others. It says, “…first
of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and
giving of thanks, be made for all men.…” The word
“supplications” is from the Greek “de sis”, which
refers to petitions or a definite request. In the general
sense, a petition is a formal written plea or entreaty
with legal demands. Thus, in these supplications, we
make requests on the legal basis of the provisions of
the Gospel.
The next one is “prayers,” and this is from the
Greek word “proseuch ” which means “to offer
prayers.” “Proseuch ” is a derivative of another Greek
word, “proseuchomai” which means “to pray to God
in worship.” God wants us to offer prayers of worship,
proclaiming blessings upon all men.
Next on the list is “intercessions,” from the Greek
word “enteuxis,” a derivative of “entugchan ,” which
refers to having a discussion, like an interview. Here
you can actually talk like you’re familiar with the person
you’re discussing with and present your case.
32
It’s like what the Bible says in Isaiah 43:25-26: “I,
even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for
mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. Put
me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare
thou, that thou mayest be justified.” The Lord says,
“Let us plead together.” In other words, “Let’s argue
together” like they do in a court of law. That’s what
you do when you intercede; you present your case.
The final one is “giving of thanks,” from the Greek,
“Eucharistia.” With this kind of prayer, you express your
gratitude to the Lord for what He’s done and still doing
in the lives of all men around the world. God needs
us as partners with Him through prayer. His desire is
to have all men saved and to come to the knowledge
of the truth.
Let your consciousness of the Gospel spur you to
prayers and intercession for the sinners, for the lost,
and for the nations. Pray that many more will receive
salvation and live for the Lord. Ensure you pray this
way continually; it’s what you have to do.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for your love and great grace
manifested in Christ Jesus. Your desire is to have
all men saved and to come to the knowledge of the
truth. Therefore, I pray for the lost today, that they’ll
hear and receive the message with which you’ve
sent us, your labourers, and that the eyes of their
understanding be enlightened to recognize the truth,
in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

TAKE UP THE SHIELD OF FAITH
Wherefore take unto you the whole

armour of God, that ye may be able to
withstand in the evil day, and having
done all, to stand (Ephesians 6:13).
W hen you read about the armour of God

in Ephesians 6, you’ll discover that the
description of what we’re supposed to put on reveals
how the enemy fights. We can decipher, from our
own defensive paraphernalia what weapons the
enemy uses: “Stand therefore, having your loins
girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate
of righteousness; And your feet shod with the
preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking
the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to
quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the
helmet of salvation…” (Ephesians 6:14-17).
Notice what it says about faith: with it, you can
quench all of Satan’s fiery darts. That tells us what
kind of material his missiles are. His missiles all have
to do with making you accept something or believe
something against God. These may be fiery darts of
discouragement, depression, fear, failure or sickness;
all aimed at making you take a stand against God’s
Word. But the Bible says, “…taking the shield of faith,
34
wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts
of the wicked” (Ephesians 6:16). With your faith, you
can put out, not some, but all of the fiery missiles of
the wicked one. Your faith is your shield.
Take up your faith! Don’t give it up. Someone
said, “I was actually acting in faith, but things went
wrong and I gave up.” No! Don’t drop your faith; the
missiles directed at you from demonic forces can only
be neutralized by faith.
The Bible says “So then faith cometh by hearing,
and hearing by the word of God” (Romans 10:17).
The more of God’s Word that comes into your spirit,
the more faith you get. And the more you use your
faith, the more it’s strengthened; and when the devil
throws his missiles, you’ll be unmoved because they’ll
be disintegrated by your shield of faith.
CONFESSION
My faith is a weapon of defense and an instrument of
victory over and against the adversary and adversities.
With it, I put out all the fiery missiles of the wicked
one. The Word of God has taken full possession of
my spirit, soul and body. I’m eternally triumphant in
Christ because my faith is the victory that overcomes
the world!

“RHEMA” FOR WAR

And take… the sword of the
Spirit, which is the word of God:
Praying always with all prayer
and supplication in the Spirit,
and watching thereunto with all
perseverance and supplication for all
saints (Ephesians 6:17-18).
I n our previous study, we learnt about the armour

of God, and particularly about our defensive
paraphernalia as listed in Ephesians 6:14-17. Of all
the seven pieces of this armour, only one is for the
offensive and that’s the sword of the Spirit. The sword
of the Spirit is the Word or “Rhema” of God. Rhema
is the Greek translated, “word” in this verse.
Rhema is a now word—a personal word for the
moment concerning you. It’s different from the Logos
of God, which is God’s Word in general. The Bible
admonishes us to take Rhema and win with it. How?
By talking. Rhema is the spoken Word; it is the inspired
utterance of the Word of God from your mouth,
whereas Logos, by comparison, is more reasoned
than inspired.
The Bible describes the “Rhema” of God as “the
sword of the Spirit.” A sword symbolizes judgment and
a readiness to attack. It’s thus an offensive weapon that
you direct, not at yourself but towards the adversary.
In our opening verse, Paul shows us how to use
38
Rhema to wage a good warfare: he says, “...Praying
always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit,
and watching thereunto with all perseverance and
supplication for all saints.” This is a different kind of
Rhema; it’s a Rhema of war! When the Bible tells us to
take the sword of the Spirit, that’s a militant expression.
He’s letting us know we’re not just supposed to be on
the defensive but to constantly mount attacks on the
forces of evil.
As we pray always with all prayer and supplication
in the Spirit, we utter words of faith directed towards
whatever it is we want to effect changes in, and also
against the forces of darkness and the powers of evil.
Is your organization mounting pressure on you to
take a position against God’s Word? Is the government
in your country enacting policies that are unfavourable
to the Gospel? Don’t give up; don’t get worn out.
You’re the one to wear the devil out. Resist him with
the spoken Word.
CONFESSION
I exercise dominion over the forces of darkness, and I
cut down their activities in my city and nation. I take
charge from the realm of the spirit today, speaking
words of victory, prosperity, health and strength. With
the Word of God in my mouth, I triumph gloriously,
reigning and prevailing over all circumstances in the
Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

WE’RE THE HOPE OF THE NATIONS
The people of the land have used

oppression, and exercised robbery,
and have vexed the poor and needy:
yea, they have oppressed the stranger
wrongfully (Ezekiel 22:29).
O ne of the reasons judgment will come on

the world is the injustice and oppression
that’s prevalent in different nations today. You’ll
find organizations, agencies and even governments
enacting policies that oppress their people. They use
regulations to crush and further impoverish the already
poor and needy in their societies, while creating
opportunities for themselves and their allies.
For some, this problem is merely a political issue,
but we know from the Scriptures that it’s more than
just politics; it’s spiritual. The Bible tells us in the
Book of Isaiah how an evil spirit is responsible for the
impoverishment of many nations in the world today:
“...I removed the boundaries of nations, I plundered
their treasures; like a mighty one I subdued their
kings. As one reaches into a nest, so my hand reached
for the wealth of the nations; as people gather
abandoned eggs, so I gathered all the countries; not
one flapped a wing, or opened its mouth to chirp’”
(Isaiah 10:13-14 NIV).
Many ignorantly suppose that the downward trend
40
in their economies is due to market forces, but the Bible
makes it clear who plundered their wealth. That’s why
we must keep praying for the nations so that instead of
oppression and injustice, there’ll be peace, godliness
and honesty. He knows this is possible in our day; that’s
why He asked us to pray. Let’s exercise our authority
and dominion in Christ over the nations.
We’re the only ones that can free the nations. The
Bible says the whole creation is in groaning, expecting
to be set free, waiting for the manifestation of the sons
of God (Romans 8:19). We have the authority in the
Name of Jesus to turn things around in the nations. So,
use the Name of Jesus against these demonic powers
and break their hold and influence. Declare, by the
Spirit, the power of righteousness upon the leaders
of your community, city, town, nation or organization
where you work, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
CONFESSION
I declare that the Gospel has free course throughout
my nation and the righteousness of God is established
in the land and in the hearts of men. The Word of
God prevails in this country (name your country),
leading to a greater harvest of souls into the Kingdom,
in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

EXAMINE THE SPIRITS
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but
try the spirits whether they are of God:
because many false prophets are gone
out into the world (1 John 4:1).
W hen the Apostle John spoke of “false

prophets,” the reference was essentially
to “professors of deception” who were inspired of
demons to deceive the world. We’re seeing many
of such in these end times. That’s why John says to
examine the spirits; he’s referring to voices of human
beings inspired by some demonic spirits that seek to
influence, deceive and sway the nations.
When you read our theme verse in context into
the second and third verses, you’d notice John was
talking about the antichrist spirit; not the “Antichrist”
himself—who is also called “the beast,” “the man of
lawlessness,” or “the man of sin”—but the spirit behind
his works. That antichrist spirit, since John’s day, has
been in the world and we’re able to discern his works.
Thanks be unto God! Not only are we able to
discern his works and those of his false prophets and
messengers, we’ve overcome them: 1 John 4:4 says,
“Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome
them: because greater is he that is in you, than he
42
that is in the world.”
In the 5th and 6th verses, he continues, “They are of
the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the
world heareth them. We are of God: he that knoweth
God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not
us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit
of error” (1 John 4:5-6). Walk in God’s truth and be
spiritually alert and you’ll be shielded against preachers
of pseudo-science and the deceit that they propagate.
Remember, truth is in your spirit, because the Holy
Spirit—the Spirit of truth—lives in you. 2 John 1:2 says,
“for the truth’s sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall
be with us forever.” God’s truth protects you, delivers
and saves you from trouble. Psalm 91:4 says, “…his
truth shall be thy shield and buckler.”
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for your Word by which I
navigate my way through life. I’m discerning and
perceptive; I’m invincible to the false doctrines,
deceptions, ruse, wiles, shams, lies and sways of the
antichrist spirit of darkness in the world today, for
I’m led by your Word and guided by your Spirit, in
Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THE EPISTLES: A REVELATION OF YOU
Ye are our epistle written in our hearts,

known and read of all men
(2 Corinthians 3:2).
O nce, I was discussing the Scriptures with a

Christian leader many years ago. I quoted
a portion of Scriptures he wasn’t familiar with, and
startled, he asked me, “Where did you get that from?”
When I showed it to him from the Epistles, he was
amazed. He had never known it, having never majored
on the Epistles.
It’s the same with a good number of God’s people;
they’ve never majored on the Epistles. In fact, some of
them see the Epistles only as letters to the churches, but
they’re more than just letters. It’s the same way some
people see the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and
John as mere historical books of the New Testament.
No! They’re the revelation of the man, Christ Jesus.
When you study the gospels, you’ll come to the
conclusion that Jesus is alive. His words are as alive
today as they were back then when He spoke them.
That’s not history. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John are
the revelation of the Head of the Church. The Epistles,
on the other hand, are the revelation of the Body of
Christ. Hallelujah! This refers to us: the new creation,
44
the Christians, the ones that are born again.
When you study the Epistles, you discover you.
For instance, there’s not a single place in the Epistles
where the Christian is asked to have faith. Rather, they
let you know that you already have faith: “…according
as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith”
(Romans 12:3). This is a true picture of who you are;
you’re a man or woman of faith! The Epistles are the
album of the new creation. Give attention to them.
Study and meditate on the truths therein and live
accordingly.
CONFESSION
I’m the epistle of Christ, the effulgence of His glory,
the manifestation of His goodness and righteousness.
My life is a message read of all men, through which
many are coming to the glory, beauty, perfection,
liberty, joy and the knowledge of Christ. Hallelujah!

YOU’RE A CHILD OF THE DAY
But of the times and the seasons,

brethren, ye have no need that I write
unto you. For yourselves know perfectly
that the day of the Lord so cometh as a
thief in the night (1 Thessalonians 5:1-2).
T he expression “a thief in the night” has troubled

some Christians for several years. Some don’t
understand what it means, while others are terrified by
it. They imagine that if they do something wrong before
going to bed and Jesus comes as a thief in the night,
they won’t go with Him. But that’s not what it means.
If you look at our opening verse closely, you’ll
observe that Paul was writing to the brethren or
brotherhood. He said, “…brethren, ye have no need
that I write unto you....” The word “brethren” actually
refers to those who are in Christ; males and females.
The next verse shows something really important:
“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then
sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail
upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape”
(1 Thessalonians 5:3). This obviously wasn’t referring
to the brethren, because he said: “For when they
shall say….” When he referred to the brotherhood,
he said “ye.”
“They” in 1 Thessalonians 5:3 refers to the world;
those who aren’t yet in Christ. The Bible describes
them as the children of disobedience, appointed to
God’s wrath: “Among whom also we all had our
46
conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh,
fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and
were by nature the children of wrath, even as others”
(Ephesians 2:3).
But for you who are born again, the Bible says,
“But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day
should overtake you as a thief” (1 Thessalonians 5:4).
Every place where the Lord Jesus talked about coming
suddenly upon people, it had to do with judgement,
and He wasn’t referring to the Church. In John 5:24,
He says, “Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word
and believes him who sent me has eternal life and
will not be judged but has crossed over from death
to life” (NIV). You’re a child of light and of the day;
you’re neither of the night nor of darkness!
Serve the Lord with joy and in expectation of His
soon return. Declare just like Jesus: “I must work the
works of him that sent me while it is day: the night
cometh, when no man can work. As long as I am in
the world, I am the light of the world” (John 9:4-5).
CONFESSION
I’m a child of light and of the day; I serve the Lord
with joy and in expectation of His soon return. I walk
in His light and in His righteousness, fulfilling His
perfect will to the glory of His Name. Amen.

THE KINGDOM WAY OF LIFE

Who hath delivered us from the power
of darkness, and hath translated us into
the kingdom of his dear Son
(Colossians 1:13)
W hen you were born again, you were born

into the Kingdom of God’s dear Son. Even
though you now live and walk in His presence, you
still have to learn how to live in this real Kingdom of
Light, and the Scriptures will help you understand this
by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Paul writing to Timothy said: “But if I tarry long,
that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave
thyself in the house of God…” (1 Timothy 3:15). This
means there’s a way to behave oneself in the house
of God. Christianity isn’t a way of life, but it has a way
of life. In this Kingdom, there’s a language; we have
our communication protocols. There’s a way of life;
we think differently. This is something the devil doesn’t
want many to know. He wants them to remain in the
dark.
The Bible tells us in 1 Samuel how the children
of Israel asked for a king. God gave them Saul to be
their king, and straightaway, Israel became a kingdom.
Samuel knew a kingdom doesn’t function like every
other society, and so the Bible says he “…told the
people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in
a book, and laid it up before the Lord...” (1 Samuel
10:25). He told the people “the manner of the
kingdom.” What does this mean?
As you study several translations, you’ll discover
that he taught them the principles, rights, privileges,
48
judgments and ways of life of the kingdom. He had
to write how the kingdom functions and delivered
it to the people. This is exactly what Jesus did. He
came preaching the Kingdom of God and every now
and then, He explained how the Kingdom worked or
functioned. Often, He’d say, “The Kingdom of Heaven
is as this or that.” He was telling us how it works. He
taught about the importance of words, and about
prayer in the Kingdom.
Now that you’re in the Kingdom of God, don’t
live like they do in the world. The Bible says, “Lie not
one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old
man with his deeds; And have put on the new man,
which is renewed in knowledge after the image of
him that created him” (Colossians 3:9-10). There’s a
different mentality in the Kingdom, a different way of
life that you must imbibe.
CONFESSION
I have the life and nature of God in me; I’ve put on the
new man, which after God is created in righteousness
and true holiness. I’m renewed in full knowledge
after the image and likeness of God. I think excellent
thoughts and only see pictures of excellence, success,
victory and abundance! Glory to God!

A NEW CREATURE
Therefore if any man be in Christ,
he is a new creature: old things are
passed away; behold, all things are
become new (2 Corinthians 5:17).
I n some Bible versions, the underlined portion in

our opening verse is rendered “a new creation.”
It’s however better rendered in the King James as “a
new creature.” Why? It’s because the emphasis isn’t
on the creation of the new man in Christ; rather, it’s
on the being; he’s a new creature, a new species that
never existed before.
It’s like seeing a strange animal pass by and
you wonder, “What kind of creature was that? You
couldn’t really make out what it was; it wasn’t like
anything you’ve ever seen. When you’re born again,
that’s what it is. Recall the words of Jesus in John 3:8
as He discussed the subject of being born again. He
said, “The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou
hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence
it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that
is born of the Spirit.” You’re a different type of being.
Something actually transpired in the realm of the
spirit when you were born again: your human life with
which you came from your mother and father was
supplanted by the divine life: “I write these things to
50
you who believe in the name of the Son of God so
that you may know that you have eternal life” (1 John
5:13 NIV). This is the reality. It’s an actual birth, a true
recreation of the human spirit.
The Bible says, “Of his own will begat he us
with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of
firstfruits of his creatures” (James 1:18). “Firstfruits”
means “the first and best.” Titus 3:5 says, “Not by
works of righteousness which we have done, but
according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing
of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost.”
Colossians 3:10-11 describes this new creation as
renewed in knowledge after the image of God that
created him.
See yourself the way God sees you. You’re
peculiar, royal, excellent and full of glory. You’re the
only one of you that God has ever had and will ever
have. So, be your best and live your best for God.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for making me a peculiar
treasure, separated unto you to bring you glory. I
walk in the reality of your Word today, and declare
that by the power of your Spirit, I’ll fulfil your purpose
for my life to the glory and praise of your Name.
Amen.

STAND IN HIS WORD
Do you not know that the unrighteous
and the wrongdoers will not inherit or
have any share in the kingdom of God?
Do not be deceived (misled): neither the
impure and immoral, nor idolaters, nor
adulterers, nor those who participate in
homosexuality
(1 Corinthians 6:9 AMPC).
Y ears ago, if you found people who engaged

in same-sex practice and the news went out,
they went underground, because they were ashamed.
But nowadays, there’re those who say they’re fighting
for the rights of “gay” people. But what does the Bible
say about this?
The Bible groups those who practise such activities
among the lawless, disobedient, ungodly, sinners,
unholy and profane: “Now we know that the law is
good, if one uses it lawfully, understanding this, that
the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless
and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the
unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers
and mothers, for murderers, the sexually immoral,
men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars,
perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound
doctrine, in accordance with the gospel of the glory
of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted”
(1 Timothy 1:8-11 ESV).
Homosexuality dates back to Bible days, as far
back as the Book of Genesis. And the Bible clearly
condemns it. It’s part of the reasons, in some quarters,
they’re trying to get rid of the Bible by all means, but
that’s never going to happen. There’re even “ministers”
54
that say they’re homosexual and help to marry others.
Different countries have made it legal.
However, as a Christian, stand on God’s Word.
Don’t go with the world. Don’t do what the secular or
political law says; do God’s Word. The Bible says, “Do
not love or cherish the world or the things that are
in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the
Father is not in him. For all that is in the world--the
lust of the flesh [craving for sensual gratification] and
the lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind] and
the pride of life [assurance in one’s own resources or
in the stability of earthly things]--these do not come
from the Father but are from the world [itself]” (1
John 2:15-16 AMPC).
The plan of the adversary is to make sure that
you’re vexed to compromise; but be smart. In spite of
all the shenanigans of the enemy, we must abide by
God’s Word. In John 14:15, Jesus said, “If ye love me,
keep my commandments.” The proof of your love for
Him is keeping His Word, and His Word adjures you
to abstain from sin.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the Holy Spirit who guides
me in the way of righteousness and true holiness. I’m
forever established in your Word. I pray for those
whose minds have been blinded, that the influence of
the devil is broken in their lives, and that henceforth,
their hearts are open to receive your love for them,
and be translated from darkness into the glorious
liberty of the sons of God, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

AN IRREFUTABLE PROOF
OF PURCHASE
And he was clothed with a vesture
dipped in blood: and his name is called
The Word of God (Revelation 19:13).
O ur opening verse is about the second coming

of the Lord Jesus, when He rides on a white
horse and is wearing a robe dipped in blood. Notice
that John didn’t say He was wearing a red robe; that’s
very significant. The woman on the beast in Revelation
17:4 was dressed in purple and red clothes: “And the
woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour….”
Jesus, on the other hand, was wearing a robe dipped
in blood. What’s the significance of this?
When you want to lay claims to something you
bought, you take the receipt. Jesus bought the whole
world: “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto
treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath
found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth
all that he hath, and buyeth that field” (Matthew
13:44). Verse 38 shows us that the field is the world.
Now, Jesus coming out of heaven to the earth and His
only receipt is His blood. He’s robed with it—proof that
He bought the whole field. The robe dipped in blood
is His proof of the purchase. Hallelujah!
1 Corinthians 6:20 says, “For ye are bought with
a price….” You weren’t bought with ordinary materials
like silver, gold, and precious stones. His blood was
56
the currency with which He paid for the sins of the
whole world (1 Peter 1:18-19). Having paid the price
for our sins, Jesus purchased us as gifts to God: “They
were singing him a new song with these words: “You
are worthy to take the scroll and break its seals and
open it; for you were slain, and your blood has bought
people from every nation as gifts for God” (Revelation
5:9 TLB).
Jesus paid for your life; so, you’re not your
own anymore. He bought you with a great price.
Henceforth, live on earth for Him alone because His
blood, which represents His life, is your true value.
The blood of Jesus gives you remission, justification,
access, fellowship, cleansing and the blessings of the
New Testament. The Bible says, “Neither by the blood
of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered
in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal
redemption for us” (Hebrews 9:12). Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Lord Jesus, thank you for paying the price that I could
never have paid, in demonstration of the Father’s
unconditional love, mercy and overwhelming
kindness towards me. Thank you for purchasing me
as a precious gift for the Father! Now I live joyfully
in righteousness, free to serve you without guilt,
inferiority or condemnation. Hallelujah!

THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST
For we must all appear before the
judgment seat of Christ; that every one
may receive the things done in his body,
according to that he hath done, whether
it be good or bad (2 Corinthians 5:10).
T he Judgment Seat of Christ is different from

the Great White Throne judgment. The Great
White Throne judgment is the most terrifying of all
judgments, and it’s reserved for sinners. The Judgment
Seat of Christ, on the other hand, is where we, the
Christians, receive our rewards one by one from the
Master, and not in groups: “…that every one may
receive the things done in his body, according to that
he hath done, whether it be good or bad.”
Notice what the Bible says: “In his body”; this
refers to the Body of Christ. When you were born
again, you were baptized into the Body of Christ,
and you’ve been there ever since. How have you
functioned in the Body thus far? Have you done good
or bad in the Body? Be careful what you do in the Body
of Christ because everyone will receive a reward of the
things done in the Body, whether good or bad: “But
why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set
at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before
the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live,
saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every
tongue shall confess to God” (Romans 14:10-11).
At the Judgment Seat of Christ, not one of us in
58
Christ will be condemned: “Therefore judge nothing
before the time, until the Lord come, who both will
bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will
make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then
shall every man have praise of God” (1 Corinthians
4:5). We’re all going to be praised, even though it’s a
judgment where we’ll give account.
“What about the bad things a Christian might
have done?” someone may ask. The answer is in 1
Corinthians 3:13-15: “Every man’s work shall be made
manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall
be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s
work of what sort it is. If any man’s work abide which
he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If
any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss:
but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.” Do
more for the Lord and serve Him with wholehearted
devotion. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Lord Jesus, I thank you for the privilege and
opportunity to participate in the propagation of
the Gospel. I look forward excitedly to that great
day when I’ll stand before you and give account of
everything I did in the Body. I’m overjoyed knowing
that all my services and sacrifices for the Kingdom
aren’t in vain! What a day of rejoicing it will be!
Amen.

ITEMS OF BLESSINGS
Insomuch that they brought forth the
sick into the streets, and laid them on
beds and couches, that at the least
the shadow of Peter passing by might
overshadow some of them
(Acts 5:15).
W hen God blesses you, He blesses everything

that’s connected to you, be it your money,
clothes, properties, etc.; they become items and
conduits of blessings. Think about that. We read how
handkerchiefs and aprons taken from the body of Paul
healed the sick: “And God wrought special miracles
by the hands of Paul: So that from his body were
brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and
the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits
went out of them” (Acts 19:11-12).
The power of God was on the clothes because
they had touched Paul’s body. It happened first with
Jesus. Luke 8:43-48 tells the story of the woman with
the issue of blood who pushed her way through a
teeming crowd to touch the hem of His garment and
was healed the very moment. Jesus said power went
out from Him.
Also, in Luke 6, large crowds of people from all
over Judea, Jerusalem and the coastal cities of Tyre
and Sidon came to listen to Jesus and to be healed of
their diseases, including those who were troubled by
evil spirits.
Luke, by the Spirit, specifically wrote, “And all the
60
crowd sought to touch him, for power came forth
from him and healed them all” (Luke 6:19 RSV).
This means the blessing—the healing power—got on
His clothes and emitted to others, resulting in miracle
healings. This is remarkable!
It’s one of the reasons you should take good
care of the things that God gives you, because the
power flows through them. Whether they’re your
clothes, shoes, ties, cars, work tools, everything that’s
connected with you is an item of blessings. It’s got the
power to attract more.
Renew your mind with this thinking if you haven’t
been thinking like this. Everything that’s connected to
you is connected to the Kingdom and blessed, because
you’re in Christ. When you understand this, your life
will take on a whole new meaning; the way you think,
talk and walk among others will change. Not only that,
the blessings in your life will continue to grow and
impact others.
CONFESSION
Everything that’s connected to me grows and
multiplies; there’s a significant increase in its
relevance; nothing that emanates from me loses
value because I’m continually filled with the Spirit.
I’m a dispenser of the Lord’s goodness to my world,
the extension, and manifestation, of His manifold
graces to all those I come in contact with today, in
Jesus’ Name. Amen.

YOUR LIFE IS A “HOUSE”
And now, brethren, I commend you to

God, and to the word of his grace, which
is able to build you up, and to give you
an inheritance among all them which are
sanctified (Acts 20:32).
S ometimes, there’re those who say, “I want to

build my life financially, “or” I want to build my
life spiritually….” It makes no difference in which area
you desire to build your life; what you need is God’s
Word. That’s the only material given to us to build our
lives. God’s Word will build you up spiritually, mentally,
financially, emotionally, physiologically, etc. Read our
theme verse again!
Your life, according to the scriptures, is like a
house to be built, and that’s why Jesus said anybody
who hears, does, and lives His Word is like a man
who built his house on a rock. He said, “And the rain
descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew,
and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was
founded upon a rock” (Matthew 7:25).
However, the one who doesn’t give heed to the
Word is likened to a man who built his house on sand
and when the storms of life beat against the house,
it came to a ruinous end: “…great was the fall of it”
62
(Matthew 7:27). Build your life on the Word; it makes
no difference the crises and adversities that come
against it; it’ll remain standing, and it’ll be a great
edifice! Praise God.
CONFESSION
Oh, the transforming and translational power of
God’s Word! I’ll forever stand strong and tall, even
in the midst of the harshest of storms, because my
life is built on the Word. The Word infuses boldness,
excellence and dominion into my spirit. It keeps me in
health, strength and victory, causing me to experience
unprecedented progress, peace and prosperity in my
life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

HEIRS OF BLESSINGS
The Lord shall open to you His good
treasury, the heavens, to give the
rain of your land in its season and to
bless all the work of your hands; and
you shall lend to many nations, but
you shall not borrow
(Deuteronomy 28:12).
T he Contemporary English Version renders the

theme verse beautifully. It says, “…He will
make you successful in everything you do. You will
have plenty of money to lend to other nations, but
you won’t need to borrow any yourself.” Let this truth
dawn on your spirit, and your mentality will change.
You’re loaded with blessings for your generation.
You’re a custodian of God’s manifold blessings.
Therefore, everywhere you are, dispense blessings;
dispense God’s grace, love and compassion to those
you come in contact with; it’s your calling! Be a giver
because of who you are and where you come from:
you’re Abraham’s seed. The Lord said to Abraham,
“and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be
blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice” (Genesis
22:18). Hallelujah!
The Lord Jesus did all that He did on the Cross that
the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles,
64
and it has (Galatians 3:14). Glory to God! Now, we’ve
received the promise of the Spirit. Galatians 3:29
says, “And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s
seed, and heirs according to the promise.” The world
belongs to you. Be conscious of this truth.
PRAYER
Dear heavenly Father, what an honour to be an
heir of the Abrahamic blessing, a conveyor of your
goodness and a dispenser of eternal verities. As the
seed of Abraham, I walk in righteousness, victory,
health and dominion today, conscious that I’m
blessed to be a blessing. I usher in and distribute
God’s goodness to the advantage of many, in Jesus’
Name. Amen.

VICTORY ASSURED
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold
on eternal life, whereunto thou art
also called, and hast professed a good
profession before many witnesses
(1 Timothy 6:12).
I n 2 Timothy 4:7, the Apostle Paul said, “I have

fought a good fight, I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.” What fight was he talking
about? He refers to it in our opening verse: “the
good fight of faith.” No matter what happens in your
life—in the world, or around you—refuse to be broken,
disillusioned or overwhelmed; use your faith!
Your faith is the victory that overcomes the world
and its failures, corruption, darkness, wickedness and
decadence. Every adversity you face is your opportunity
for a testimony as you use your formidable arsenal: the
shield of faith. That’s the one you’re counselled to take
on above all the others: “Above all, taking the shield
of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the
fiery darts of the wicked” (Ephesians 6:16).
With your faith, you’re able to extinguish,
neutralize, make of no effect, ALL the fiery darts of
the wicked. Never think there’s a challenge you can’t
surmount; no trouble is too much for you to overcome.
With the shield of faith, you’re invincible. It doesn’t
matter how Satan throws the darts at you; remain
strong in faith!
It may seem like all hell is breaking loose in your
body; you feel terrible pains and discomfort; yet, you
66
must refuse to accede to sickness and disease; use your
faith. And while you’re at it, remember “...the sword
of the Spirit, which is the word (the Rhema) of God”
(Ephesians 6:17). That’s the Word of God spoken forth
from your lips.
It doesn’t matter how excruciating the pain is;
keep affirming your healing and health. Soon enough,
your faith will prevail and you’d be able to say like
Paul, “I have fought a good fight…I have kept the
faith.” Always maintain your faith and confidence in
the Word.
Hebrews 10:35 says, “Cast not away therefore
your confidence, which hath great recompence of
reward.” Don’t say, “Lord, it became too hard; I had
to give in”; no! Fight! The fight of faith is your personal
fight, and it’s a good fight because you always win.
Keep at it, for your victory is guaranteed!
CONFESSION
It makes no difference the troubles in the world; it
doesn’t matter what I see, hear or feel; my victory
is assured! I’m what God says I am, I have what He
says I have, and I can do what He says I can do! I
refuse to accept sickness, poverty, defeat, or give in
to anything that’s contrary to my divine heritage in
Christ. I maintain my confession of the Word, strong
in faith, giving glory to God, because the greater One
lives in me! Hallelujah!

OPEN YOUR HEART TO TRUTH

For with the heart man believeth unto
righteousness; and with the mouth
confession is made unto salvation
(Romans 10:10).
I n John 7:2-5, we read about the unbelief and

opposition of the brothers of Jesus against Him
during the Feast of Tabernacles: “…’Go where your
followers can see your miracles!’ they scoffed. ‘You
can’t become a public figure if you hide like this! If
you can do such wonderful things, prove it to the
world!’” (John 7:3-4 NLT). Verse 5 says specifically,
“For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.”
There’s no doubt that His brothers would have
heard from their mother about the miraculous birth
of Jesus and the amazing stories of His childhood.
Their father Joseph must have told them about how he
received angelic visitations several times concerning
Jesus. Yet, they didn’t believe in Jesus.
This tells us something: Believing is with the heart.
You choose to believe, and you choose to harden your
heart. Our theme verse says, “For with the heart man
believeth unto righteousness….” Open your heart to
God’s truths! So much is revealed to us in the Scriptures
about the divinity of Jesus and the salvation in His
Name; embrace these realities.
70
God’s desire is for us to be filled with the
knowledge of His will, to know His truth and walk
accordingly. That’s why we find a prayer of the Spirit
by the Apostle Paul for God’s children in Colossians
1:9 AMPC: “For this reason we also, from the day
we heard of it, have not ceased to pray and make
[special] request for you, [asking] that you may be
filled with the full (deep and clear) knowledge of
His will in all spiritual wisdom [in comprehensive
insight into the ways and purposes of God] and in
understanding and discernment of spiritual things.”
Hallelujah!
CONFESSION
From the beginning, God chose me to salvation
through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the
truth. Therefore, it makes no difference how many
antichrists, false preachers and false teachers are
out there in the world, I can’t be deceived, for my
heart and mind are anointed to know the truth. I
have insight into Kingdom mysteries and secrets.
Glory to God!

KEEP UP THE ACTIVITIES
OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
…Occupy till I come (Luke 19:13).
A s Christians, we’ve been given authority

over demons of darkness, to cast them out
of people, cities, towns, villages and nations. But
casting them out alone, sometimes, doesn’t really
stop the trouble; you have to ramp up the activities of
righteousness in and around such places.
Remember what Jesus said in Matthew 12:43-45.
He said when an unclean spirit is cast out of a man, he
walks through dry places, seeking rest; finding none,
he returns to the place where he was cast out, and
if he finds it empty, swept, and garnished, he goes
and takes seven other spirits who are more wicked
than himself; and all eight of them enter the man. He
becomes worse than he was before.
That man shouldn’t have been empty! He should
have immediately begun feeding on God’s Word in
study and meditation. Likewise, when we cast devils
out of a city, nation or town, we must move in with
evangelism, and fill the land with the Word of God.
If we don’t preach and increase the activities of
righteousness in such places, we’re leaving it open to
another visitation of devils. We must take over those
72
places at once by invading them with the Word.
Furthermore, continue in prayer and intercession
for those regions to make them uncomfortable for
devils to settle back in. As read in our theme verse,
Jesus said, “Occupy till I come.” That means keep
working, keep preaching, keep prevailing in prayer
for the souls of men. Keep up the activities of
righteousness. Praise God!
PRAYER
Thank you Father, for giving me an understanding of
the Word and for building my faith strong and giving
me the authority to cast out demons and enforce
your will in the earth. The nations of the world are
fashioned for your glory; therefore, the influence of
Satan is broken and the Gospel is spreading around
the world unhindered, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

UNLIMITED AUTHORITY
And hath raised us up together, and
made us sit together in heavenly
places in Christ Jesus
(Ephesians 2:6).
T here’s so much we can do with the application

of the deep truth revealed in the verse
above. Our authority in Christ is all-encompassing
and unlimited. We’re seated with Christ in the place
of power, in a position of dominion and great glory.
Hallelujah!
We can put a stop to the deception, perils and
havocs the devil and his cohorts concoct around the
world. You can stand your ground and speak God’s
Word in prayer and exercise authority in Christ Jesus
over your body, your family and loved ones, your city,
your state, and your country. We’re the ones in charge!
We function in Jesus’ stead; in His dominion!
Look at what He did to the demons of darkness
in hell: “He DISARMED the Principalities and the
Powers [which fought against Him…” (Colossians 2:15
Conybears Translation). Hallelujah! Read the Phillips
New Testament translation and dance for joy: “And
then having drawn the sting of all the powers ranged
against us, He exposed them, shattered, empty and
defeated, in His final glorious triumphant act!”
74
Guess what? When He did all of that in hell,
you were in Him. So, in Him you already shattered,
disarmed and defeated Satan and his cohorts of
darkness. Maintain your dominion and victory over
them. In praying for all men, your city, nation and
leaders, affirm that Satan’s influence is cut off.
Stand in your authority in Christ and utter words:
words of life, words of glory, words of liberty, words
of prosperity, blessings and grace. Bless your world
with words of righteousness. Remember, words
are limitless; and your divinity, your dominion and
authority in Christ are expressed primarily through
words. Glory to God!
CONFESSION
All of creation—Satan, demons, angels, everything in
life, living and non-living—have all been commanded
to hear and obey me, because I sit in Jesus’ seat!
I put a stop to the wanton destruction of lives
perpetuated by the devils of darkness in the nations
of the world; I declare that their influence is cut off;
there’s increased works of righteousness, and the will
of God is established in the nations and in the hearts
of men, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

“Rhapsody Is A Provider!”
One day, I sat in my room feeling dejected because there
was no money in my bank account, and I was out of
of Rhapsody of Realities, and I placed another copy in
my food store. The next day, I went to the bank to make
a withdrawal with the ATM, knowing quite well I had
no money in the bank. I made a request for a certain
amount, and to my surprise, the machine dispensed the
same amount. I did this a couple of times, and each time,
the machine dispensed cash! With the money, I was able
to purchase food. Rhapsody is a provider! Praise God!
-E.M; Nigeria
“Rhapsody Ushers Men Into The Kingdom”
The Messenger Angel is full of inspiration and is
replete with God’s wisdom. Through the prayers
and confessions in it, I’ve learnt to be bold. I’ve also
of contact with the Gospel. I am a cell leader in my
Church, and because of our application of the Word in
the devotional, our cell keeps growing, and more souls
are being added to us daily. Glory to God!
-S.J; United Kingdom
“I’m Now A Healer!”
I used to be apprehensive; full of fears, worries, doubt
and was constantly depressed. I often fell ill because of
this. I loathed myself and often had suicidal thoughts.
Messenger Angel. As I read it, all the fears disappeared.
I saw myself as God saw me and started teaching others
Christ’s love. I no longer fall ill, and now others get
healed when I pray for them. Praise God!
