Pastor Chris says
“J ust as a man is transformed through education of

his natural senses, your inward man can also be
transformed through the education of your spiritual
senses. Therefore, don’t be conformed to this world.
Don’t live like them, or think like them, or see from
their perspective. Instead, be transformed, transfigured,
and translated by the renewing of your mind... It’s your
responsibility to transport yourself from one level of
glory to another in your life. You can live a better and
more glorious life by your choice, and He’s shown you
here exactly how to do it—by renewing (effectively
managing) your mind.”

STAY IN
GOD’S PLAN
(Discover God’s Plan And Sunday
Fulfil It This Year)
1
TO THE BIBLE Psalm 74:17 NIV

“It was you who set all the boundaries of the earth; you made
both summer and winter.”
LET’S TALK
“J effrey, when you’re mowing the lawn, make sure

you don’t go into Miss Matilda’s garden like you
did the last time. Remember she wasn’t too happy the last
time you did that.”
“Okay Mum. I will be careful this time. I’ll follow the
boundary she’s set in place,” replied Jeffrey.
“Good job, son!” Jeffrey’s mum praised.
Nobody can be more or do more than what God has
allotted or assigned to him or her. In other words, you can’t
achieve more than whatever God has planned and destined
for you to achieve; you’ll not go beyond it. Our opening verse
says, “It was you who set all the boundaries of the earth.…”
(Psalm 74:17 NIV). He set the boundaries that no one can
go beyond. So, the wise thing to do is to discover what God
wants you to do, and then, go all out to fulfil it.
God will always send you the Word that’s meant for
you. He gives us the Word for the year, to guide our thinking,
planning and actions. That Word is for you to live by; take it,
and run with it. You can be as successful as God has ordained
for you to be this year if you’d walk with Him by the Word,
through the Spirit. Real success is achieving God’s set goals
for you at different levels of your life. Measure your success
6
by what you do with the Word of God and how you live to fulfil
God’s purpose for your life. Be definite about the things you
want to achieve for the Lord and run with the visions He unveils
to your spirit.
Take some time to fast, pray, and meditate on the Word
for the year, and as you do, you’ll be better positioned to
experience the victories and blessings ordained for you by the
Spirit. The more you study the Word, the more you discover
God’s plan for your life and know exactly how He wants you to
live.

THE ALL-CONQUERING
NAME
(Cast Out All Devils In The Monday,
All-Powerful Name Of Jesus) 2
TO THE BIBLE Mark 16:17-18 CEV

“Everyone who believes me will be able to do wonderful things. By
using my name they will force out demons, and they will speak
new languages. They will handle snakes and will drink poison and
not be hurt. They will also heal sick people by placing their hands
on them.”
LET’S TALK
T he Name of Jesus is the most potent authority that

there is in the whole universe—no other name with
enough authority to rival the effect of the Name of Jesus—
and that is because God has exalted Jesus to the zenith of
all authority. When you study and understand what the Bible
says about the Name of Jesus, it’ll strengthen your faith and
change your general attitude and approach to life. Philippians
2:9-10 NIV says, “Therefore God exalted him to the highest
place and gave him the name that is above every name, that
at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on
earth and under the earth.”
At His Name, every knee bows, demons tremble and
hell quakes. Hallelujah! He said, “In my name shall they (those
who believe in Him) cast out devils.” You never need to sweat
to cast out devils. All it requires is that you use the Name of
Jesus. The devil may play on your mind and tell you you’re
not “qualified” or “powerful” enough to cast him out. Never
accept his lies. Jesus gave you the authority.
8
He said in Luke 10:19, “Behold, I give you the authority to
trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the
enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” You have all
it takes to cast out devils—the Name of Jesus. Everything that
exists in this world and beyond is subject to that Name. Live
victoriously and dominate circumstances in His Name.

Everything that exists in this world and beyond is subject to the

Name of Jesus. I exercise my authority in Him to keep the devil

Amen.

PREACH THE
MESSAGE BOLDLY
(Maintain Your Boldness In Tuesday,
Preaching The Gospel) 3
TO THE BIBLE Acts 20:22-24 NIV

“And now, compelled by the Spirit, I am going to Jerusalem, not
knowing what will happen to me there. I only know that in every city
the Holy Spirit warns me that prison and hardships are facing me.
However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to
finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—
the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.”
LET’S TALK
“G
counselled.
ordon, I think we should cancel this meeting
altogether in light of the recent warnings,” Eric
“Yeah, perhaps we just postpone the meeting till

everything calms down? I bet the school authorities have us
in their sights, as they have been looking for a way to indict us
now that holding large religious meetings has been banned.”
“Hey, the Lord has told us to do this, and we can’t back
down! Come what may, but this is the best time to preach the
Gospel.” Gordon affirmed strongly.
Emboldened by Gordon’s bold resolve, the three friends
went ahead to hold their crusade and a massive turnout of
souls, including a few high-ranking school officials who had
intended to stop the meeting, were led to Christ that night!
Jesus Christ is truly the Way, the Truth and the Life, and
no one comes to the Father but by Him. Be convinced and
compelled by this truth, and preach it boldly. Don’t be afraid
of being persecuted for proclaiming His Name. The early
apostles were beaten and threatened never to proclaim the
10
Name of Jesus. But rather than give in to the faithless religious
and government authorities, they preached Christ even more
boldly and filled the whole of Jerusalem with their doctrine (Acts
5:28).
There’re antichrist spirits in the world today, working
against the preaching of the Gospel, but they’re not a factor,
because we’ve already overcome them. 1 John 4:4 says, “You
are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He
who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” Emulate
Paul’s love for Christ and passion for the Gospel (Acts 20:22-24).
This glorious Gospel which has been committed to your trust is
worth everything. Therefore, preach it boldly everywhere!

BUILD YOUR
FAITH STRONG!
(God Has Given You Faith, Wednesday,
So Grow And Develop It) 4
TO THE BIBLE Romans 12:3 KJV

“…God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.”
LET’S TALK
G od has given to everyone in Christ the measure

of faith. He isn’t going to provide you with faith
when you pray hard or fast long enough; He’s already done
it. He’s given you “the measure of faith,” not “a measure of
faith.” Each one of us was given the same measure of faith
when we received the Gospel. According to the Lord Jesus,
even the smallest measure of faith can move mountains; it
can do the impossible: “…For assuredly, I say to you, if you
have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain,
“Move from here to there,” and it will move; and nothing will
be impossible for you” (Matthew 17:20).
The Lord, however, doesn’t want you to remain at this
low level of mustard-seed faith; He wants your faith to grow
and be strong. Romans 10:17 tells us that faith comes by
hearing and hearing by the Word of God. The emphasis is
on “hearing,” that is, the continued bombardment of your
spirit with the Word of God. But the way to build your faith
strong and make it effective is by exercising it, that is, acting
on the Word. Your faith will be weak if you don’t exercise it.
It’s like someone who keeps eating but doesn’t exercise; his
muscles will grow big but weak.
In the same manner, God’s Word is food to your spirit.
If you keep receiving God’s Word and do nothing with it,
12
your faith will be weak. Weak faith causes people to stagger,
and as a result, fear grips them, and they’re defeated by the
crises of life. However, the cure for weak faith is putting the
Word to work, acting on the Word. The more you meditate
on God’s Word and put it to work, the greater and stronger
your faith.
The Bible says Abraham “…did not waver at the promise
of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving
glory to God” (Romans 4:20). Build your faith strong by using it
even in the seemingly small or simple matters of life. Exercise
your faith all the time. Don’t allow that headache or pain; use
your faith against it. Act on the Word, and build your faith
strong.

Pray
Dear Father, I thank you for your Word that bolsters faith in
my spirit and causes me to see and do the impossible. I’m

GO FOR THAT
“ONE” SHEEP
(Be Concerned For Those Thursday,
Who May Have Strayed Away) 5
TO THE BIBLE Luke 15:23-24

“…Bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; for
this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found….”
LET’S TALK
“S peaking of Sylvester, I don’t think I’ve seen him in

Church for a while; perhaps I will give him a call?”
“Better yet, let’s go visit him at his place; I’m sure he will
appreciate the visit,” Tim suggested to Carl.
In a church, particularly one with a large congregation,
it’s possible for some members to be inconsistent in their
attendance; some may even have stopped coming altogether.
This may not be immediately obvious, especially if the church
is always full during the services.
As Christians and soul winners, we should be concerned
enough to know if anyone in our congregation has strayed
away or fallen by the wayside. In Luke 15, the Lord Jesus told
the parable of a shepherd with one hundred sheep. One of
them got missing, and he left the ninety-nine in the wilderness
to search for the missing sheep. When he found it, he carried
it home rejoicing and invited his friends and neighbours to
celebrate with him. Then, Jesus said, “…Likewise there will be
more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over
ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance” (Luke 15:7).
Jesus was preaching here to the Jews. He was talking to
them about the lost. Understand that He wasn’t talking about
14
one who had never come to the Lord but one who had strayed
away. There’s a difference between the one who has never been
inside (the church) and the one who was inside but strayed
away. Remember, Jesus was dealing with the Old Testament
church here, so He wasn’t referring to the lost sinners of the
world.
Matthew 10:5-6 says, “These twelve Jesus sent out and
commanded them, saying: “Do not go into the way of the
Gentiles, and do not enter a city of the Samaritans. But go rather
to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” The Lord is sending you
today to that brother or sister who no longer comes to church.
Don’t give up on them; find them, intercede for them and win
them back. When you bring them back, the Bible says there’ll
be great joy in heaven. This is something you have to do.
Go Deeper
Ephesians 3:14-17; Galatians 4:19; Galatians 6:1
Pray
Dear Father, thank you for making me genuinely concerned

about your children who have strayed from the way. I pray that
Christ is formed in them and that they’d be established, rooted
and grounded in your love, being fully persuaded that in you

SHINE FOR
THE WORLD TO SEE
(You’re A Bright Light In The Friday,
Midst Of Darkness) 6
TO THE BIBLE 1 Peter 2:9

“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,
His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him
who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.”
LET’S TALK
T he Bible says God has called us into His marvellous,

overwhelming light. This means we dwell in light;
we’re children of light. Jesus also stated this in Matthew 5:14:
“You are the light of the world….” What a blessing! We’re the
light of the world!
To catch this truth, you have to first understand what
light is. Light is that which makes manifest. Light describes.
Ephesians 5:13 AMPC says, “…When anything is exposed and
reproved by the light, it is made visible and clear; and where
everything is visible and clear there is light.” In other words,
light shows you what’s present. It leads you in the way and
gives direction. Light brings fulfilment and joy. When you
show up, darkness disappears.
Darkness represents sin, death, evil and all the negative
things that are associated with Satan. Jesus said: “…I am the
light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness,
but have the light of life” (John 8:12). Like Jesus, you’re the light
of the world and have the light of life. You’ve been brought
out of darkness into the supernatural life of glory. Arise and
shine. Refuse to allow the works of darkness to manifest
themselves in your life, for there’s no darkness in your life.
16
Matthew 5:16 says, “Let your light so shine before men,
that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in
heaven.” Don’t just shine; shine brightly. Let the intensity of your
light dazzle and discomfit Satan, his demons and the negative
works of darkness. Let it inspire those around you to praise and
glorify your heavenly Father, as they see and experience your
good works—your works of righteousness.
Go Deeper
Isaiah 60:1-2; Matthew 5:16
Pray
Dear Father, thank you for the glorious heritage I have in you.
You’ve made me a burning and a shining light, and I shine ever
so brightly in a dark world, radiating your glory to all men, and
manifesting works of righteousness, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

CAN YOU TELL WHEN
GOD SPEAKS?
(Learn To Distinguish The Saturday,
Voice Of God From Others) 7
TO THE BIBLE John 10:27 NIV

“My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.”
LET’S TALK
“I think God wants me to lay hands on our Pastor,”

Brother Charles said to two other care group
leaders soberly.
“That’s contrary to what Hebrews 7:7 says,” Brother
John pointed out to him.
“Yeah, but it was God’s instruction to me!” Charles
maintained.
“No, Charles, God’s Word never contradicts itself. You
misunderstood what the Holy Spirit was telling you.” Jane
said, “God would rather have us intercede on Pastor’s behalf
instead, as the Word said to do in 1 Thessalonians 5:25, 2
Thessalonians 3:1 and Hebrews 13:18.”
Many wonder if it’s possible to hear God speak in
a world where there’re so many voices. The words of the
Master in John 10:2-5 clarify this. The Lord Jesus said, “My
sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me”
(John 10:27). The key is understanding God’s Word. The more
you study the Word, the more you recognise and know the
voice of God, because God and His Word are one. He speaks
through His Word.
Everything He tells you, every direction or guidance
you receive from Him, always sides up with His Word.
Through meditation on His Word, His voice becomes clearer
18
to you, even in the midst of all the noise and distractions.
If you’ve previously found it difficult to recognise God’s
voice, the solution is simple: spend more time studying the
Word! Colossians 3:16 says, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you
richly in all wisdom….” Proverbs 4:20-21 NIV says, “My son, pay
attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words. Do not let
them out of your sight, keep them within your heart.” If you
keep God’s Word in your heart, you’ll always hear the Word in
your heart and recognise when He speaks to you. In addition,
pray in the spirit often; pray in tongues. This helps to condition
your spirit to discern God’s voice, visions and promptings.

1 Samuel 3:9-10; Isaiah 30:21 CEV
Pray
Dear Father, your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my

DID YOU
KNOW?
THE BOOK OF REVELATION
There’s no other book in the Bible quite like the Book of Revelation.
Many people avoid this important book of the Bible because they
think it’s too confusing or frightening. While Revelation may be
challenging to understand, to not delve into it is to miss the most
powerful and important Revelation of all: the Lord Jesus Christ
Himself.
The Book of Revelation, full of complex imagery and vivid

depictions, outlines God’s plan for the Second Coming of Christ
and Satan’s punishment in the lake of fire. Unlike other books in
the New Testament, it’s a work of prophecy, talking primarily about
future events. Fueled by the popular fascination with the end of
the world, “apocalyptic” books and movies have become staples
of pop culture, but none of them gives the accurate description of
end-time events as the Book of Revelation does.
20
Here are a few interesting facts about it that every Christian
should know.
1. Before Roman Emperor Domitian exiled the Apostle John

to the Greek island of Patmos, where experts say he wrote
the Book of Revelation, he ordered him to be thrown in a
cauldron of boiling oil, but John miraculously survived.
2. Revelation came to John in a vision, perhaps the reason for
the great use of imagery in the book.
3. The Book of Revelation uses 21 symbols, beginning with
the “seven lampstands” representing seven churches in Asia
Minor.
4. Revelation is the only book in the New Testament that uses
the word “Alleluia,” indicating praise to God, and it appears
four times – all in Chapter 19.
5. The forces of evil will gather in the Valley of Megiddo in
Israel—once called the “ideal battlefield” by Napoleon—
before the climactic Battle of Armageddon. The carnage will
be so great that the blood of the evil army will flow as high as
horses’ bridles (Revelation 14:14-20 and Revelation 19:11-21).
6. The Lord Jesus uses just one angel to bind Satan and throw
him into a bottomless pit for one thousand (1000) years — an
indication of Jesus’ power over evil (Revelation 20:1-3).
7. God says that anyone who reads the book of Revelation
and takes it to heart will be blessed (Revelation 1:3). But in
the last chapter, He warns of dire consequences for anyone
who would dare add anything or take anything away from
the book (Revelation 22:19).
21
YOU CAN SUCCEED
ANYWHERE!
(Your Success In Life Isn’t Tied Sunday,
To Any Place In The World) 8
TO THE BIBLE John 16:15 MSG

“Everything the Father has is also mine. That is why I’ve said, ‘He takes
from me and delivers to you.”
LET’S TALK
O ften, when young people are asked questions

such as where they’d wish to live or study in,
they respond with names of seemingly prestigious cities and
countries. Some tend to think that being in such places would
help make them more successful in their future careers. As a
Christian, you ought to think differently because your success
or greatness in life isn’t tied to where you live, where you were
born, who your parents are, or what school you attend. It’s
about who you are in Christ.
Jesus said, “Everything the Father has is also mine”
(John 16:15 MSG). Nobody ever talked like Jesus! Imagine
His audacious words in the verse above! And the beautiful
thing is that He’s made it so for you too. Romans 8:17 says
you’re an heir of God and a joint heir with Christ. Hallelujah!
In 1 Corinthians 3:21, the Apostle Paul said, “Therefore let no
one boast in men. For all things are yours.” He went further
in the 22nd verse to say the world is yours. How can anyone
know this and be in lack or want? Notice he didn’t say the
world belongs to those who live in the “best” countries of the
world. It doesn’t matter what city you’re in or what school you
attend; in Christ, all things are yours.
22
Think about it: where was Jesus born? A tiny town in a
small country! But from that small country, He dominated the
world. He told His disciples, “Be of good cheer, I have overcome
the world” (John 16:33). His earthly nativity or geographical
location couldn’t limit him. Peter understood it and declared,
“His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life
and godliness…” (2 Peter 1:3). If you’d accept, meditate and live
by this truth, you wouldn’t be intimidated by anything, whether
circumstances, powers, or government. You’d think big because
you’re conscious that the world belongs to you in Christ Jesus.
You’re an heir of the Sovereign God. The Word declares
that all things are yours; have this consciousness and live in
dominion and self-sufficiency every day.

God you release when you speak His Word is so potent that
it influences whatever it’s focused on. Genesis 1 shows us
just how efficacious the spoken Word of God can be. Recall
that the earth was a chaotic mass. But after the Holy Spirit
incubated upon it, God gave the Word, and everything He
spoke leapt into being. This is the same ability He’s given us:
the ability to speak whatever we want into existence!
Just like God, you can call forth good things into
existence from absolutely nothing! The vital key to this,
however, is meditation. Just as the Holy Spirit brooded
(hovered, fluttered) upon the earth’s chaotic mass, when
there’s a situation you want to change, take out time to
meditate on God’s Word. During that meditation, there’ll
arise within you inspired words that’ll cause the change(s)
that you desire.
It doesn’t matter how precarious the situation might
appear. Hosea 14:2 says, “Take with you words....”; what do
you want in your life? The Bible says without the Word was
not anything made that was made! So, what do you want
24
to “make”? Don’t cry about the situation; don’t gripe over the
pain! The question is, what do you want to see? What do you
want to create out of that precarious situation? The Bible says
God commanded light to shine out of darkness. Don’t focus
on the problem; focus on what you want and speak it forth.
Don’t say, “I have cancer” or “I have diabetes”; it’s not
about what “you have”; it’s what you want in place of that
cancer or diabetes. You’re created in His image and in His
likeness, with His ability in your spirit, and His Word in your
mouth. Speak and create what you want. As a child of God,
you get to call the shots in your life. Whatever it is you want,
speak it into existence!

THE FUTURE
IS YOURS!
(Do Not Fret Because Of Tuesday,
The Happenings Around You) 10
TO THE BIBLE Jeremiah 29:11 NIV

““For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans
to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and
a future.””
LET’S TALK
T he Lord Jesus specified some of the agonising

signs that’ll signal the end of the age. He said,
“There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth,
nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and
tossing of the sea. People will faint from terror, apprehensive
of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will
be shaken” (Luke 21:25-26 NIV). Much of these are already
happening and many have become despondent; livelihoods,
businesses and economies have been decimated.
Many aren’t sure about their future anymore. But,
as a Christian, you shouldn’t be agitated about the future
like others are; you should be at rest and at peace. The
government or society where you live might promise you a
great future, but don’t hope on their promises. God’s plan
is the best; your role is to discover that plan and walk in the
light of it.
Never allow the troubles in the world to get you
depressed. Jesus knew you’d encounter crises in this world;
it’s the reason He said, “I have told you these things, so that in
me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble.
But take heart! I have overcome the world” (John 16:33 NIV).
26
Be of good cheer, irrespective of what’s happening around
you or to you. Be strong. Be courageous. Don’t give in!
Maybe your neighbourhood has been experiencing
some attacks from armed bandits, or perhaps some have lost
their jobs or businesses in your area; whatever it is, the trouble
is only for a short time. The Apostle Paul called it a “light,
momentary affliction.” He said, “For our light, momentary
affliction (this slight distress of the passing hour) is ever more
and more abundantly preparing and producing and achieving
for us an everlasting weight of glory [beyond all measure,
excessively surpassing all comparisons and all calculations, a
vast and transcendent glory and blessedness never to cease!]”
(2 Corinthians 4:17 AMPC). As long as you’re in Christ, you’re
in safety; your future is secured. Hallelujah!

IT’S BY
FAITH ONLY
(Live By What Wednesday,
God’s Word Says) 11
TO THE BIBLE Romans 8:8 NIV

“Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God.”
LET’S TALK
“P
service.
astor, I need your help,” Maphella urgently
asked of her Pastor at the end of the church
“What’s the challenge, Sister Maphella?” the Pastor

gently enquired.
“Pastor, I feel so far away from God,” Maphella opened
up, “I just don’t feel the Spirit of God within me like before.
Has He left me?” she asked, with tears forming in her eyes.
“But, Sister Maphella, the Spirit of God never leaves
you once He takes His residence inside you,” he gently
counselled. “He’s always with you whether you feel like it
or not. Don’t use your feelings to determine if He’s in you
because He is, and He wants you to fellowship with Him
more often.”
In Christianity, we don’t judge by our feelings; we
follow the Word. That you “feel” close to God or far from
Him doesn’t make any difference. You live in Him, and He
lives in you. How much closer can you get to someone
who lives in you? God wants you to know and grow in the
knowledge of His Word; He desires you to walk in the light
of your oneness with Him. He wants you to live by what
the Word says about you and not by your feelings or the
opinions of others.
28
The devil may lie to you and make you feel you’re still
a sinner but don’t be deceived. The day you gave your heart
to Christ, you were recreated and became the righteousness
of God in Him. 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, “Therefore, if anyone
is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away;
behold, all things have become new.”
God had to tell you this because your mind doesn’t
know it and can’t comprehend it. It’s revelation knowledge
for the human spirit, through the Holy Spirit. Irrespective of
how you may “feel,” He wants you to “see,” to reckon that
you’re in Christ now. The old habits are passed away; the
old frustrations and struggles are passed away. You have a
brand-new life of glory and righteousness. Hallelujah!

HOLD FAST TO
YOUR ZEAL
(Declare And Maintain Thursday,
Your Passion For The Lord) 12
TO THE BIBLE Revelation 2:25 AMPC

“Only hold fast to what you have until I come.”
LET’S TALK
S ome Christians allow anger or bitterness to

douse their zeal and effectiveness in ministering
to others. Some go as far as withdrawing their services
in God’s house simply because of some offence someone
in church meted out to them. They become less excited
about the Gospel than when they first found the faith.
But this is not God’s will for anybody. You should not stop
winning souls or become cold about the things of God
because someone offended you.
Hebrews 12:15 GNB says, “Guard against turning back
from the grace of God. Let no one become like a bitter plant
that grows up and causes many troubles with its poison.”
In other words, consciously protect your heart from
becoming bitter and consequently losing your excitement
about the things of God. The privileges of service we have
in the house of God are sacrosanct; don’t take them lightly.
You’ve been endowed with the ability and grace to lead
people to Christ, unveiling to them the mysteries of the
Kingdom; keep at it. There’s a crown of glory awaiting you
at the end.
As a Christian, every day presents opportunities for
you to keep the faith and maintain your confession of who
30
Jesus is and what He means to you. Nothing should take
your focus off the Master; He’s all that truly matters. Declare
your love for Him and your passion for the Gospel.
The Bible says those that turn many to righteousness
shall shine as stars forever (Daniel 12:3). Keep shining
evermore in leading many to Christ. Let it be your life’s work
and priority.

THE RESTRAINING
FORCE
(Take Your Place Of Authority Friday,
As A King-Priest) 13
TO THE BIBLE Isaiah 60:18 AMPC

“Violence shall no more be heard in your land, nor devastation or
destruction within your borders, but you shall call your walls Salvation
and your gates Praise.”
LET’S TALK
“H i, Brian. Derek told me you’ve been feeling

downcast; what’s wrong?” Nathan, Derek’s
friend, wondered.
“Yeah, I just wished I could do something about the
wickedness and deceptions ravaging our country and other
nations as well. It’s so sad,” Brian lamented.
“But Brian,” Nathan responded, “as Christians, we’re the
restraining force against evil in the world today. We’ve got
the authority in the Name of Jesus to frustrate these satanic
activities. So, instead of idly observing the false news out
there, take your place, alongside other Christians, as a king-
priest and declare God’s will concerning the nations of the
world in prayer.” And as Nathan concluded his words, they all
joined hands to pray for the nations of the world.
The spate of evil, wickedness and deception perpetrated
by Satan and his cohorts around the world today is something
only the Church of Jesus Christ can cut a swathe through.
We’re the restraining force against evil on the earth today.
We have the authority in the Name of Jesus to frustrate these
satanic activities. Don’t sit idly by; take your position as a king-
priest, taking sides with the Lord in bringing His will to pass
32
on earth. The devil and his cohorts often try to deceive people
into thinking they are helpless in the face of the evil and wicked
acts perpetrated by demon spirits in the world, but that’s all lies!
In the place of prayer, we can establish God’s righteousness in
places previously run by devils; we can take sides with the Lord
in establishing His will on the earth.
Even now, declare boldly that the wicked spirits responsible
for the upheaval and evil in the nations of the world are cut
down and that God’s glory reigns in the earth. In these last days,
God’s people shall continually declare His righteousness and
praise boldly, leading more souls into salvation in Christ Jesus.

YOU’RE LOVE
IN MOTION
(God’s Love DNA Flows Saturday,
Within You) 14
TO THE BIBLE 1 Corinthians 13:4-6 TLB

“Love is very patient and kind, never jealous or envious, never boastful
or proud, never haughty or selfish or rude. Love does not demand its
own way. It is not irritable or touchy. It does not hold grudges and will
hardly even notice when others do it wrong. It is never glad about
injustice, but rejoices whenever truth wins out.”
LET’S TALK
T he Bible tells us that God is love (1 John 4:8); love

is His nature—who He is. When we talk about the
attributes of love, therefore, we’re talking about the attributes
of God. Apply this to our theme verse, and it’ll read, “God is
very patient and kind, never jealous or envious, never boastful
or proud, never haughty or selfish or rude. God does not
demand His own way.” Hallelujah!
Recall how Jesus lived when He walked the earth;
He was love manifested. His works were works of love. His
words were words of love. He was love in motion. Jesus in
Galilee was the intrusion of love in the streets of Galilee. Love
invaded that atmosphere. Now, what about you? The Bible
says you’re God’s offspring (1 Peter 1:23), meaning that you’re
the reproduction of love.
The offspring of an eagle would be an eagle. The
offspring of a human would be a human. The offspring of
Love (God), therefore, is love! So, if your name is Tom, for
example, you should say, “Tom is very patient and kind. Tom is
never envious nor boils over with jealousy. Tom is not boastful
34
or vainglorious. Tom does not display himself haughtily.” Praise
God!
God’s Word shows us who we are; it’s a mirror. When you
look at that mirror, don’t forget what you look like: patient, kind,
tolerant, loving and humble. If arrogance or hatred tries to gain
vent through you, refuse and declare, “I’m not arrogant; I’m
humble. I’m full of love as Jesus is; I live in His Name; therefore,
I walk and act like Him.”
Let the love of Christ, which is the bond of perfection,
rule your heart always. Lavishly express the love-nature of God
in your spirit and radiate the beauty and glories of heaven to
your world.

GIVE THE RIGHT
RESPONSE
(Your Response To God’s Word Sunday,
Activates Its Power) 15
TO THE BIBLE Romans 10:10

”For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the
mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
LET’S TALK
W hen the Word of God comes to us, we rejoice

and celebrate with shouts of praise to our God.
However, just shouting and celebrating the Word of God
as it comes to you does not necessarily mean that such
a Word will be fulfilled in your life. You don’t receive the
Word to be quiet. If you don’t respond, the Word will do
you no good.
In Christianity, you believe and speak; 2 Corinthians
4:13 says, “And since we have the same spirit of faith,
according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I
spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak.” Your confession
of the Word is your response to the Word; this is what will
change your life and circumstances. Responding to the
Word means more than “reciting” what God has said; you
have to say something consistent with what He has said in
faith.
Anything God says is loaded with power. His words
are never empty! They’re like missiles locked onto a target;
however, a missile needs to be guided for it to produce the
desired result. When a missile is deployed from its ground
station, it is monitored by a guidance command system
that helps it maintain the right trajectory so it could hit
38
its target. The same thing happens when you affirm God’s
Word; you guide the Word that has been released to fruition
in your life.
God’s Word concerning the year has come to you. This
is His will, plan, and purpose for you to walk in, and it is
your responsibility to regularly and intentionally affirm it. As
the subsequent months of 2023 roll by, and as the Word for
each month is released, make sure you take a hold of it and
keep affirming it. Guide your life with the Word from your
mouth until it bears fruits of righteousness for you.

THE SPLITTING
IMAGE OF GOD
(Jesus Is The Express Image Monday,
Of God) 16
TO THE BIBLE John 14:8-9 NIV

“Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for
us.” Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have
been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has
seen the Father. How can you say, “Show us the Father”?””
LET’S TALK
T he Bible says in Jesus dwells the fullness of the

Godhead in bodily form (Colossians 2:9), meaning
anyone who wants to know what God looks like should
look at Jesus. No wonder Jesus said to Philip, “...Anyone
who has seen me has seen the Father….” Jesus is the express
image of the Father’s Person. Some believe that, in heaven,
there’re three thrones: one for the Father, one for the Son,
Jesus, and then another for the Holy Spirit; but that’s not
true. The Father joyfully appointed Jesus as the heir of all
things, including His throne. Thus in heaven, there’s only
one throne, and Jesus is the one sitting on that throne.
Where then is the Father? He’s in Jesus! The Bible says
it pleased the Father, that in Him (Jesus) should all fullness
dwell (Colossians 1:19). Then Colossians 2:9 lets us know that
in Him (Jesus) dwells the fullness of the Godhead bodily. If
you’ve seen Jesus, you’ve seen the Father. No wonder when
He said in John 10:30 NIV, “I and the Father are one,” the
Jews picked up stones and wanted to kill Him; why? They
said He made Himself equal with God: ““We are not stoning
you for any good work,” they replied, “but for blasphemy,
40
because you, a mere man, claim to be God”” (John 10:33 NIV).
The Jews considered His words blasphemous because they
didn’t know who He was, but Jesus is the perfect image and
icon of the Godhead!
He’s the expression of God’s glory, and by inheritance,
He obtained a more excellent Name in all of heaven and
earth. Philippians 2:9-11 NIV declares, “Therefore God exalted
him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above
every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue
acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the
Father.” He’s the King of kings and Lord of lords. Hallelujah!

YOU DON’T NEED
TO “SEEK” GOD

“H ey guys, I heard you scheduled a prayer

“That’s awesome! So what are we praying about?” Ron
asked excitedly.
“Um, nothing specific; we just want to seek the face of
the Lord as shown in Jeremiah 29:13-14,” Keila answered.
“That’s Old Testament stuff, guys.” Ron promptly
pointed out. “We don’t go seeking God; we fellowship with
Him because we’re born of Him, and He lives in us.”
There’re still many who haven’t understood true
Christianity; therefore, they go about seeking God. You may
say, “But isn’t Jeremiah 29:13-14 for the Christian?” No, it’s
not! Stop seeking God! He lives in you. Colossians 2:6 says,
having received Christ Jesus the Lord, we should continue to
live in Him. Therefore, we’re not seeking Him; we have Him.
We’ve arrived, for we’re born of Him, into His presence.
Christianity isn’t about pressing into God’s presence;

IT’S AN HONOUR TO
PREACH THE GOSPEL
(God Chose You To Save Wednesday,
Your World)
18
TO THE BIBLE 2 Corinthians 5:18

“Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through
Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation.”
LET’S TALK
2 Peter 3:9 tells us that God isn’t willing that

any should perish but that all should come to
repentance. He proved His commitment by sending Jesus to
die for the salvation of all men (John 3:16). However, despite
God’s commitment to saving the lost, He wills to do it through
us—His saints—and has committed to us “the ministry of
reconciliation.”
Jesus said in Mark 16:15 NIV, “...Go into all the world and
preach the gospel to all creation.” We have the most incredible
honour on earth: the opportunity to preach the Gospel. God
gave us the rare privilege of being His partners in changing
the world: His partners in transforming lives.
Think about the fact that God didn’t give the charge
of soul-winning to angels but to you and me. The glorious
Gospel of the blessed God has been committed to our trust
(1 Timothy 1:11); be faithful in it. Be on the go with the Gospel;
don’t stop until the knowledge of the glory of God covers the
earth as the waters cover the sea.
What a marvellous blessing, privilege and honour that
the Lord would do all He did and send us to herald the news
around the world! Then to ensure you succeed at it, He gave
you the Holy Spirit to be with you and in you. The Holy Spirit
44
makes you an able, competent, and effective minister of the
Gospel (2 Corinthians 3:6). He gives you the ability to be a bold

ALL THINGS ARE
YOURS NOW!
(You Have Every Thing Thursday,
You Require For Life)
19
TO THE BIBLE Genesis 15:1

“After these things the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision,
saying, “Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly
great reward.”
LET’S TALK
T he underlined words spoken by God to Abraham

in our opening verse reminds me of what He
said later to Aaron in Numbers 18:20: “…I am your portion
and your inheritance among the children of Israel.” We
understand from the Scriptures that the Lord apportioned
inheritance to the different tribes of Israel except for the
Levites, to whom He said, “I am your inheritance.”
How rich can you get when the Lord is your
inheritance? How glorious would your life be? Psalm 24:1
says, “The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness, the world
and those who dwell therein.” Since this is true, then the
earth and everything in it belong to you because you’re His
heir. Paul understood this and said, “...all things are yours” (1
Corinthians 3:21).
Now you can understand why your prayer times
shouldn’t be spent asking God for things for yourself.
What do you want to ask of one who’s already given you
everything, including Himself? You have Christ, and Christ is
everything. This truth should change your mentality and life
forever. Is it strength you require? The Bible says He’s your
46
strength! Therefore, testify like the Psalmist, “…The LORD is
the strength of my life...” (Psalm 27:1).
Is it wisdom you think you need? The Bible says Christ
is your wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:30). You’ve been granted all
that you require for life and godliness; you’ve been launched
into a life of glory, excellence and superabundance. No
wonder the Psalmist exclaimed, “The lines have fallen to me
in pleasant places; yes, I have a good inheritance” (Psalm 16:6).

YOU’RE A WORD
PRACTITIONER Friday,
(You’ve Been Called To
Practise God’s Word) 20
TO THE BIBLE Ephesians 5:25-27

“…Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her…that He
might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or
wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without
blemish.”
LET’S TALK
O ur heavenly Father desires that His children walk in

the consciousness of His righteousness. God’s gift
of righteousness is what sets us apart from the Old Testament
folks: they had God’s Word which they were commanded to
obey but, as Christians, we’re different! In the Old Testament,
they were called to obey the Word; but in the New Testament,
we’re Word practitioners; we’re the expression of the Word;
it’s called the mirror principle. God’s idea is that if He shows
you who you are, you’d live accordingly.
Therefore, when you come across a verse such as
Ephesians 4:25: “Therefore, putting away lying, “let each one
of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members
of one another,” you act exactly as He said by putting lying
away. The mirror shows you as one who puts lying away, so
do it. It’s not a commandment. In the Old Testament, it was a
commandment not to lie; but in the New Testament, we do
the Word and walk in truth.
The Bible says “...the law is not made for a righteous
person...” (1 Timothy 1:9), and we’re God’s righteous ones
(Romans 1:17). In the Old Testament, He gave them laws,
48
but in the New Testament, He gave us His nature, His life
of righteousness, so we can live right. It explains why if you
did something that isn’t consistent with your nature of
righteousness, you’re troubled from within.
By your own spirit, you’re able to tell and judge, because
of His light in you. This is why we teach righteousness so God’s
people can become conscious of who they are in Christ and
live accordingly.

WHY YOU MUST
WIN SOULS
(Three Reasons For Saturday,
Reconciling Others To Christ) 21
TO THE BIBLE Mark 16:15 CEV

“Then he (Jesus) told them: Go and preach the good news to
everyone ina the world.”
LET’S TALK
“P astor, must every Christian win souls?” Mark

asked his Pastor at a special “Questions and
Answers” service.
“Yes, we all must,” Mark’s Pastor answered, “It’s how we
testify to our world of the wonderful gift of righteousness
God has given us.”
“But Pastor, what if I don’t feel like testifying to my
world?” Mark pressed on.
“Mark, no one who receives an awesome gift hides
it. You’d want to show it off to your friends,” the Pastor
maintained. “When we preach the Gospel, we’re showing
off our wonderful gift of righteousness and inviting them to
partake of it as well.”
There’re three important reasons you must preach
the Gospel and win souls as a Christian. First is your faith in
the Lord Jesus and His glorious Gospel. The second reason
is your love for Him and hope of His soon return. The third
reason is His instruction for us to win souls. These three
reasons should compel you to win souls.
God has determined that souls be won to His
Kingdom, and He’s given us the responsibility to locate the
50
lost in our world and share the Gospel with them. Therefore,
you must reach the unreached and bring them to Christ; it’s
your primary and solemn responsibility as a child of God.
The Apostle Paul, recognising this, wrote this: “…God was
reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s
sins against them. And he has committed to us the message
of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors...” (2
Corinthians 5:19-20 NIV). Be fully committed to the Gospel
and its furtherance around the world.

WORD
SCOPE
“INFLUENCE”
Influence implies the power to affect persons or events,
especially power based on prestige. It also means “the act
or power of producing an effect without apparent exertion
of force or direct exercise of command” (Merriam-
Websters 11th Collegiate Dictionary).
Joseph of Arimathaea, who was given access to the body

of Jesus after the crucifixion, was a man of influence. The
disciples didn’t have as much influence as he did. As a
Christian, you’ve been called to be a person of influence
in your world. You’ve been chosen to make a great impact
in your generation for God, and you don’t have to be an
ordained minister to do this. Don’t think in terms of titles;
think in terms of function. Ask yourself, “How can I affect
my environment today?”
Make up your mind not to live an ordinary life. God needs

you to be a person of influence so you can speak for the
Church, the body of Christ.
52
i-testify!
“I always thought it was hard to win souls. That was

until I received my first copy of TeeVo and started
reading it, and as I kept on reading it, I became
bolder in my faith. I had learnt more about soul
winning and told myself I have to win souls. So, I
started distributing TeeVo in my school and took
advantage of it to win souls, and amazingly most
of the teenagers who received TeeVo said they
always wanted to have a clear understanding of
the Word of God.
I also actively distributed TeeVo online and led a lot

of teenagers to the Lord. They are very grateful as
they testify that TeeVo is really changing their lives,
and they have a deeper understanding of God’s
Word because of the material. Praise God.”

HAVE YOU MADE
HIM LORD?
(Declare Jesus Christ As Sunday,
The Lord Of Your Life) 22
TO THE BIBLE Philippians 2:9-11 CEV

“Then God gave Christ the highest place and honored his name
above all others. So at the name of Jesus everyone will bow
down, those in heaven, on earth, and under the earth And to the
glory of God the Father everyone will openly agree, “Jesus Christ
is Lord!”
LET’S TALK
A young man once boarded a train, and on his way,

his cabin mates asked him to join them in a game,
but he replied, “I’m sorry, I didn’t come with my hands.”
“What do you mean?” they asked perplexed because
they could see his hands on either side of his body.
“These hands that you see aren’t mine; they belong
to my Master, Jesus Christ, and I only use them to do what
He commands me to do,” the man explained. He went
further to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with them, and
they were gloriously saved!
When we say, “Jesus is Lord,” it’s much more than
a religious expression; it means He’s One with supreme
authority. He’s Master and Ruler; He’s the One to be
reverenced and adored! That’s what “Lord” means. Some
have only been acquainted with Him as Saviour, but
He’s more than a Saviour. He’s the One that has the pre-
eminence and to whom service and obedience are due.
You must know Jesus in this light and walk in this
consciousness every day. In your family, academics,
finances and everything that has to do with your life, relate
54
to Him as Lord! In other words, let Him have supremacy and
ascendancy. Let Him have the final say in all that concerns
you. Remember, He’s the only wise God; therefore, submit to
the supremacy of His will, counsel and wisdom.
And if you haven’t yet made Jesus the Lord of your life,
say this prayer and mean it with all your heart: “O Lord God, I
believe with all my heart in Jesus Christ, Son of the living God.
I believe He died for me and God raised Him from the dead.
I confess that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life. Through Him
and in His Name, I have eternal life; I’m born again. Thank you,
Lord, for saving my soul! I’m now a child of God. Hallelujah!”

DISPLAY THE
GLORY OF GOD
Monday,
(Unveil The Christ-Life
From Within You) 23
TO THE BIBLE Colossians 1:27 MSG

“...The mystery in a nutshell is just this: Christ is in you, therefore
you can look forward to sharing in God’s glory. It’s that simple.
That is the substance of our Message.”
LET’S TALK
A s a Christian, you’re essentially the image of

Christ; you’re the Christ that your world sees.
Every step you take should be the expression of the divine
life in you. Your words and actions, the life you live, and the
way you do the things you do should express the Christ-
nature in you. You’ve been called to show off God’s glory.
That’s how Jesus lived when He walked the earth.
He was the manifestation of God, the expression of the
divine life. You’re Christ alive to your world, your family,
neighbourhood, school, city, and country; therefore, when
people look at you, they should see the glory of the new
creation.
Think about a fashion model who adorns exquisite
dresses and shows them off to an audience, a magazine or
other media platforms; You’re a God-carrying vessel and
you ought to show off this Christ-life to your world so they
could glorify your Father in heaven.
True success is God manifesting and expressing
Himself in and through you; it’s how much His personality
and character are revealed through you. Your goal,
therefore, should be to reveal Him always. Everything you
56
do should be about one thing only: the manifestation of the
Christ-life in you, His perfection and righteousness expressed
through you. Hallelujah!

AS HE IS,
SO ARE YOU
(You’re In The Same Class Tuesday,
As Jesus) 24
TO THE BIBLE Mark 4:38-39,41 NIV

“Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke
him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?” He
got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!”
Then the wind died down and it was completely calm…They were
terrified and asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and
the waves obey him!””
LET’S TALK
T he Lord Jesus, when He walked the earth, was a

marvel and master over circumstances. One day,
the disciples, in awe of Him, asked the question we read in
our opening verse. This was after He hushed a billowing
tempest to sleep. On another occasion, the disciples had
sailed far out at sea when they suddenly saw a figure
walking towards them on the water; it was Jesus. Again,
they wondered, “What manner of man is this that defies
nature?”
Think about His ascension to heaven! He simply
levitated and went through the clouds into heaven. It pays
to know who Jesus really is. Until you know Him, you can’t
have true faith in Him, and you wouldn’t know yourself.
Here’s something most extraordinary: anyone who believes
in Jesus receives the same life that He has. John 1:12-13 says,
“But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to
become children of God… who were born, not of blood, nor
of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.”
58
Notice that the latter part says you’re born of God,
meaning that you’re born of the same Word that became
Jesus. 1 Peter 1:23 says, “Having been born again, not of
corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God
which lives and abides forever.” James 1:18 NIV says, “He chose
to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be
a kind of firstfruits of all he created.” We’re in the same class
and manner of men as Jesus, because we’re offspring of the
Word.
No wonder John said, “...In this world we are like Jesus”
(1 John 4:17 NIV). All of divinity was tabernacled in Jesus; He
was God alive—walking and talking in a man’s body. That
same fullness of divinity dwells in you today. Like Him, you’re
the living, moving house of the living God. Hallelujah!

GOD-LIKE
THINKING
(Get Your Thoughts Directly Wednesday,
From God’s Word) 25
TO THE BIBLE Romans 12:2 NASB

“...Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the
renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God
is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.”
LET’S TALK
A s a Christian, it’s important how you think and what

you think about. You’re not of this world; therefore,
you shouldn’t think like an ordinary person. Don’t say, “I’m
American, or I’m Australian, as a result, there’s a way I think.”
No! When you’re born again, you cease to be of your earthly
nativity, because your spirit is recreated. You should therefore
only think the Word way. God’s Word must form the basis
for the kind of thoughts you process and allow. Now that
you’re in Christ, you have a new culture: the Christ culture.
Until this becomes a reality in your spirit, you’ll live like an
ordinary person and not experience the sublime blessings of
life in Christ.
The Bible says, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is
a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all
things have become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17). You’re of a
new lineage and heritage. Refuse to be described by any
earthly culture or affiliation. If you must be identified as Zulu,
Afrikaans, American, British, German, French, Nigerian, etc.,
let it be because you want to win those of such descent to
Christ.
60
That’s how the Apostle Paul puts it. He said, “To the Jews
I became as a Jew, so that I might gain Jews; to those who are
under the Law, I became as one under the Law, though not being
under the Law myself, so that I might gain those who are under
the Law” (1 Corinthians 9:20 NASB).
Our opening verse, in the New International Version, says,
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed
by the renewing of your mind….” As you meditate on the Word,
your mind is programmed to think accordingly. You’ll begin
to talk differently and act in line with your confessions of faith.
The Word of God is the only material that can energise you
for success, position you for greatness, and sustain you in the
transcendent life.

GODLINESS
DEFINED
(Exercise Yourself In Thursday,
Godly Character) 26
TO THE BIBLE 1 Timothy 4:7 NIV

“Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales;
rather, train yourself to be godly.”
LET’S TALK
T he word “godly” above actually means piety

towards God, piety to spiritual or godly activities.
It means devotion. It doesn’t refer to inner righteousness
or inherent holiness. It’s about the things you do, how you
respond to God, and to the things of God. For instance,
there’s a way you ought to behave when you come into
the house of God because church isn’t like everywhere else.
It’s a place of worship. There’s an attitude of reverence you
ought to have when you come to church.
Godliness is about your demeanour. Your dressing
matters; some piety is necessary in your dressing. There’s a
decency that goes with the Spirit of God, and that decency
must be in your life. There’re outward things that people
should see in you and say, “Yes, this is a Christian.” They can’t
see it in your heart but can see it in your character. That’s
what godliness is about. There’re movies you shouldn’t
watch. There’re books or magazines you shouldn’t read.
There’re places you just shouldn’t be found in, because
you’re different.
And if for any reason you find yourself in such places,
you ought to go in there with godly piety. Yes, that’s the life
you’ve been called to live. Your presence in a place should
62
exude and transmit the righteousness of God, for you’re a
tree of righteousness, producing fruits of righteousness.
Never lose sight of who you are; you’re different. You’re the
symbol and embodiment of God’s glory, perfection, beauty,
and righteousness.
See and carry yourself as such: always remember that “...
you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a dedicated nation,
[God’s] own purchased, special people, that you may set forth
the wonderful deeds and display the virtues and perfections of
Him Who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light”
(1 Peter 2:9 AMPC).

KICK POVERTY OUT
OF YOUR LIFE
(God’s Prosperity Is Yours Friday,
To Enjoy) 27
TO THE BIBLE 2 Corinthians 8:9 TLB

“You know how full of love and kindness our Lord Jesus was:
though he was so very rich, yet to help you he became so very
poor, so that by being poor he could make you rich.”
LET’S TALK
A fter you’re born again, poverty becomes completely

unacceptable in your life. I know there’re people
who believe Christians ought to be poor, but that’s due to
their lack of understanding of the Scriptures. Poverty is not
the absence of money or other required necessities of life; it’s
actually the disabling of a man’s mental prowess. It’s that state
where a person’s mind shuts down, and that person believes
that he or she can’t do anything to change his state. But that’s
not the case with the one who’s born again and lives by the
Word; it’s impossible for such a person to walk in penury. The
Christian is an heir of God and a joint heir with Christ.
All the wealth in this world belongs to you if you’re born
again. Once you accept this truth in your spirit and allow it
to dominate your thinking, it’ll give you a new mindset. It’ll
be impossible for you to walk in lack. The Bible says Jesus
became poor so that we, through His poverty, might become
rich (2 Corinthians 8:9). He took upon Himself, not only the
sins of the world but also the effects of sin, one of which is
poverty. This is the reason every Christian must reject poverty.
64
Nevertheless, poverty by choice, or deprivation by
persecution is acceptable. A Christian may walk poor and live
poor because of ignorance, but he’s not poor, for he actually
has an inheritance in Christ. 1 Corinthians 3:21 says, “…all things
are yours.” Therefore, refuse and reject the down life; don’t live
as a victim.

SONS OF
GOD
(Jesus Christ, The Son Of God, Saturday,
Is God In Human Flesh) 28
TO THE BIBLE Romans 8:14

“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.”
LET’S TALK
A friendly conversation ensued between the Care

Group leader and his members as they sat down
to lunch together.
“Who do you reckon is the best superhero in the
world?” Erik, the Care Group leader, started.
“That’s easy: it’s Ironman or Superman,” Adrian said.
“No, it’s Wonder woman,” Leona replied.
When Erik was asked his own response to the
question, he simply said, “It’s the Lord Jesus, because all the
ones you’ve mentioned are fictional but Jesus Christ, the
Son of the living God, the God-man, is real!”
The expression “sons of God” isn’t a description of
parental or ancestral relationships. For example, when we
say, “Jesus Christ is the Son of God,” what that means is that
Jesus Christ is the “God-man.” That’s why when Jesus told
the Jews He’s the Son of God, they wanted to stone Him to
death. They understood what He meant; He said, “I’m the
God-man,” which means “God in human flesh.”
The Jews knew what He meant because they said,
“How can you, a man, make yourself equal with God?” For
that, they were ready to kill him because, in their religious
minds, that was blasphemy. They understood He wasn’t just
talking about his birth parents, for they already knew Mary
66
was his mother and assumed Joseph was his father. Jesus
became the ‘firstborn’ of the Father when He was raised from
the dead, and the Father said to Him, “…You are My Son, today
I have begotten You” (Acts 13:32,33; Colossians 1:18; Hebrews
1:5, 6).
That’s why the Bible says that Jesus heads up the new
creation. He’s called the “first” and not the “only” begotten
from the dead because of the rest of us! When He died on
the cross, He was our representative; we all died in Him.
When God raised Him up, we were raised in Him. Thus, in
Christ, you’re the god-man. Psalm 82:6 says, “I said, “You are
gods, and all of you are children of the Most High.”” This was
prophetic language because we’re born of the same spirit
that raised Jesus from the dead. Hallelujah!

LAY HOLD ON
ETERNAL LIFE
(Walk In And Hold The Sunday,
Consciousness Of Eternal Life) 29
TO THE BIBLE 1 Timothy 6:12

“Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you
were also called and have confessed the good confession in the
presence of many witnesses.”
LET’S TALK
T he underlined portion of our opening scripture, as

rendered in Greek, is “epilambanomai.” It means to
take hold of something without letting go. Here, the Apostle
Paul says, “Don’t just be aware that you have eternal life; seize
eternal life; take possession of it.” In other words, don’t let it be
mere theoretical knowledge to you. Someone may be singing,
“I’ve got the life of God in me…” but he’s not walking in the
consciousness of that life nor acting like it. Every now and
then, he gripes, “You know, I’ve had this migraine headache
that has been with me for fifteen years.” No one who’s taken
hold of eternal life talks like that.
Eternal life is the God-life; it’s incorruptible. It can’t be
tainted, defiled, or corrupted by sickness, disease, failure,
death or the devil. It’s the divine life. You might be praying,
“Oh God, please take away this sickness from me”; that may
not change anything. You might say, “But God says ‘I’ll take
sickness away from among you’”; He already did that in Christ
Jesus. In God’s eyes, you’re already perfect, even though you
might be going through trials, pains, and difficulties.
To Him, you’ve been perfected in Christ Jesus. He sees
you the way He sees Jesus. In His sight, there’s nothing wrong
70
with you. Therefore, align yourself with His thoughts and visions
through the Word and declare, “I’m perfected in Christ Jesus;
I refuse to accommodate any sickness, disease or pain in my
body because I have the life of God in me! I’ve taken hold of
eternal life.”
You’re an associate of the God-kind; the life and nature
of God have been imparted into your spirit. Now that you’re
born again, you have eternal life in you. You’re not going to
have it after you’ve prayed and struggled to please God. It’s in
your spirit now! Live in this consciousness and be who you are
in Christ.

I’ve taken a hold of eternal life. Therefore, it doesn’t matter

the trials, pains, and difficulties in the world, I’m unperturbed
because I live in, and by, the Word of God. My life is the revelation
of the graces and realities of the Word! I live triumphantly over
sickness, disease, Satan, and the systems of this world, in Jesus’
Name. Amen.

...TO “EVERY
CREATURE”
Monday,
(Proclaim The Word To
Everything Around You) 30
TO THE BIBLE Mark 16:15

“And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel
to every creature.””
LET’S TALK
words.
“W hat are you doing, Mum?” Rebecca screamed
as she saw her Mum pointing and speaking
“I’m talking to the things in the house,” her Mum replied.

“I can see that; why? Isn’t it strange to do so?”
“No, it’s perfectly normal to do so; didn’t the Lord talk to
fish, bread, wind, trees, and water? Didn’t they all obey Him?
Since they did, the things I’ve spoken to will obey me too!”
Jesus didn’t send us to preach the Gospel to human
beings only; He said, “Preach the Gospel to every creature.”
That’s quite instructive. It means you can proclaim the Word
to anything and everything around you, because everything
in life has intelligence. Everything God made can hear and
recognise His voice. Jesus proved this true (Mark 11:12-14, 20-
21)!
Perhaps your car has been grounded; if you’d talk to it;
if you’d release words of power to that car, before long, it’ll
be back on the road. Maybe your house and everything in
it is getting old, you can call forth a renewal. Simply declare,
“House, in the Name of Jesus, you’re renewed.” Walk through
the rooms and prophesy that new furniture, decorative items,
electronics, etc., are coming in the Name of Jesus!
72
Many haven’t come to that point of prophesying
and speaking the Word to everything around them, so they
complain. Don’t complain; proclaim the Word. Maybe you only
have one pair of shoes; instead of complaining to God about
it, declare, “I invoke the blessing of God on this shoe, to bring
forth a harvest.” Then, give it to God as an offering. Before long,
you’ll have more than enough shoes for yourself and to give as
gifts to others.
You might ask, “Is it really that simple?” Sure it is! The
principle is clear (John 12:24). Proclaim the Word to your seed,
your money and the things you own. Say, “You’re coming back
in a multiplied harvest, in the Name of Jesus; I release you with
the blessings of God.” Don’t cry for the lack of money; don’t cry
about something you don’t have; put the principles in God’s
Word to practise and you’ll surely have a testimony!

Mark 11:23; 2 Corinthians 4:13; Hebrews 13:5-6
Pray
Dear Father, thank you for making my life like a well-watered

garden; I’m fruitful and productive always and at all times.
Everything and everyone that’s connected to me experiences
the grace of God and responds to the influence and beauty that
your righteousness produces, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

EAT THE WORD
VORACIOUSLY
(Study God’s Word Till It Gets Tuesday,
Into Your Spirit, Soul And Body) 31
TO THE BIBLE Acts 20:32 NASB

“And now I entrust you to God and to the word of His grace, which
is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all
those who are sanctified.”
LET’S TALK
T he Word of God gives you much more than a

moral code of conduct; it builds, lifts, transforms
you and catapults you to your inheritance and destiny in
Christ. Proverbs 11:9 tells us that through knowledge—
revelation knowledge of God’s Word—shall the just be
delivered into their inheritance. Thus, you have to know the
Word, store it in you, and consciously put it to work in your
life. That’s your guarantee of a life of ever-increasing glory.
The Bible says, “...All things are yours” (1 Corinthians
3:21); that means there’s nothing you require today that
hasn’t already been made available to you by God’s Word.
This is one reason you must meditate on the Word. Become
voracious in your passion, hunger, and appetite for the
Word. There’s no way of appropriating the blessings of
God to your life without the accurate knowledge of the
Word. We win, excel, and prevail over the challenges of
life through, and with the Word. The more you study and
meditate on the Word, the more inspired and excited you
get about the life in Christ.
The knowledge of God’s Word gives you an
undeniable conviction about the transcendent life of
74
victory, righteousness, success, and dominion that Christ has
brought to us! Your victory is in the Word of God, so study it
to know it, for only through the knowledge will you discover
and enjoy your glorious inheritance in Christ. Study the Word
for what it does in your spirit. The Word in you goes into
your spirit, soul, and body, and becomes part of your being,
making you what it talks about.
When you ingest and digest the Word, it becomes one
with your spirit, thereby enhancing and improving the quality
of your personality. Bombard your mind with the Word of
God, until it completely inundates your thinking, and your life
will go in one direction only: upward and forward!
Go Deeper
2 Corinthians 3:18; 1 Peter 1:23
Pray
Dear Father, as I study and meditate on the Word today, my

heart receives it with joy, faith, and meekness, knowing that
my life is being built and my destiny shaped in line with your
perfect will for me. My life is for your glory and beauty because
of the power and influence of your Word in my spirit, in Jesus’
Name. Amen.
