The Place Of Intercession In Our Home

The Place Of Intercession In Our Home

Reading Time: 2 minutes

COUPLES-

The original intention of God for our homes and marriages is that we are blessed by the Lord. God wants us to be abundantly blessed with the treasures of heaven and earth.

We are supposed to be blessed in the city, blessed in our going out, and coming in, blessed in the field, blessed in the fruits of our baby, blessed in the works of our hands, and blessed all around. The blessing is supposed to follow us and overtake us.

The blessing is supposed to be a gift to us as we stay in God’s purpose as His children who obey Him. These blessings don’t however come automatically. The devil will try and contend with the blessing God has already released to us.

He will want to negotiate us out of the blessing. All the devil is after is the blessing. He knows that he who has the blessing is blessed, and there is nothing he can do about it.

The contention over the blessing is real and that is where our intercession comes in.

And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; -Luke 18:1 (KJV) 

Our intercession should be always at all times. We are pushing back the hands of the enemy and dislodging his arsenal, his works of wickedness to distract us from doing God’s will. We have to keep the door shut against the devil who is always tempting us with sins.

We need to keep the door shut on our flesh. The flesh ultimately is enmity against God and all that is God in our lives.

Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. –Roman 8:7 (KJV) 

Husbands and wives are solely responsible to take up their cross daily and follow Jesus and take the opportunity of the help of the Holy Spirit in the place of prayers.

Likewise, the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. -Romans 8:26 (KJV) 

As we begin to engage in the place of prayer we enforce our victory and the blessing that belongs to us rightly becomes our experience.

We don’t have to live below the blessing. It becomes an aberration if we as children of God are anything but blessed. We are the carriers of the blessing, the covenant people, God’s own blood purchase children.

I pray as we take what’s rightfully ours in the place of prayer God will grant us victory and we will experience the blessing in our homes and marriages in Jesus name.

God bless our marriage.

Understanding What God Hates –Part 2

Understanding What God Hates –Part 2

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Hello dear, yesterday we began this interesting topic; what God hates. I showed you what the word of God says in the book of Proverbs.

Let’s see what the bible says;

Here are six things God hates, and one more that he loathes with a passion: eyes that are arrogant, a tongue that lies, hands that murder the innocent, a heart that hatches evil plots, feet that race down a wicked track, a mouth that lies under oath, a troublemaker in the family. –Proverbs 6:16-19 (MSG)

Yesterday we were able to identify some of the things God hates, which are;

1. eyes that are arrogant

2. a tongue that lies

3. hands that murder

4. and a heart that hatches evil plots.

Let’s look at the remaining three this morning!

5. Feet That Race Down A Wicked Track

God hates a foot that is quick to rush into evil, swift in running to mischief, quick to do wrong. God doesn’t want you his child to be excited about doing evil or going to places where people do evil. Be mindful of the places you go to, be excited about going to church and places where the word of God is taught, and stay away from places where people plot evil against others.

6. A Mouth That Lies Under An Oath

This goes beyond just lying, lying under an oath shows a lack of respect and reverence, be a person of integrity. An Oath should be binding, you don’t tell a lie and call the name of Jesus to prove that you are telling the truth when you know it’s a lie. Honour God, and your parents, stay true to your words as well.

7. A Troublemaker In The Family

The last thing this scripture says is God hates troublemakers. God wants you to be a peacemaker, wanting the best for everybody, don’t be the one causing issues and trouble in school or at home, be at your best always, and God will help you in Jesus name

PRAYER:
Father in the name of Jesus, I help me to do your will always. Amen

ACTION PLAN:
Write what you have learned today in points and paste it on a wall in your room

DECLARATION:
I am the beloved of God, and I think as God thinks

SINGLES -One Thing You Need To Know As A Single
Continued from yesterday.

4. God’s word is the source of joy

These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. –John 15:11 (KJV)

Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full. –John 16:24 (KJV)

When you find yourself in situations that do not look like what God promised you, do not get depressed about it or start some pity-party, rather get into God’s word and search out every scripture that handles that particular situation.

As you begin to meditate on those scriptures and use them to pray, you find strength coming to you and the joy of God welling up on your inside!

This joy, as it wells up, rejuvenates you and gets you refreshed. All of a sudden, you start seeing clearer, that it is not about the issues, but about the God, your father who loves you so much and had already given you the victory!

Now, your trust in Him as you express it further moves God to action on your behalf. You think you are long overdue for marriage with suitor not in sight? Don’t get depressed my sister, resort to praise and let the joy of the Holy Ghost fill your heart. You will come to see that your marriage eventually will not be late; it will be the latest in town!

I come against the spirit of heaviness over your life. I come against the spirits behind despondency and suicidal tendencies. I shatter your power now!

Don’t give up on God, because you are at the verge of greatness in your life! God is coming through for you sooner than you expect.

I pray for every reader this morning, God will surround you with his mercy. Your eyes will be opened to see the reality of the kingdom of God that it is not in meat and drink only but in righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost! One Thing You Need To Know As A Single

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
My joy is full, and so I attract the favour of God and man.

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Father, I ask in the name of Jesus that you give me the grace to praise and thank you at all times.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
I bless GOD every chance I get; my lungs expand with his praise. –Psalms 34:1 (MSG)

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Choose a convenient hour during the day to just praise God and do that daily.

How To Handle An Affair –Part 2

How To Handle An Affair –Part 2

Reading Time: 2 minutes

COUPLES –

4. Attach Pain To The Experience Of Having An Affair

Until an affair is associated with pain in the mind and the brain, a thorough work is not done. The erring couple must have several quiet moments of self-talk and deep ruminating of the issue. That’s why depending on the situation, the erring spouse must be left alone to have some sober reflections.

These sober reflections are necessary for certain positive conclusion to be made. Also, a lot of prayers are needed in this period. The support of the other spouse is also needed by not criticizing, nagging and not showing rage or irritability.

A lot of love, emotional support, care and reassuring words should be given to the erring spouse at such times as this.

A spouse should come out of this ordeal stronger, better and bigger, ready to help those on the same predicament.
That’s the way God organized things in the kingdom. What you have overcome, you have the Grace to help set others free from.

5. Change The Environment

It might be necessary to change that environment where the affair happened. However, this may not always be possible. If you can’t change your environment, you can at least change what you do within that compromising environment.

If you have lunch breaks together alone with a particular lady, you have to change this.
Note that an affair is not necessarily sexual, it could be an emotional affair. Don’t be deceived, an emotional affair is as serious as a sexual affair, in the sight of God, they are the same.

But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart. –Matthew 5:28 (NLT)

6. Make Sure You Don’t Play The Blame Game.

What has happened has happened. Don’t cry over spilt milk, don’t wallow in self-pity. That is the devil’s domain; you don’t want to cooperate with the devil to make your freedom difficult. You must embrace Gods free gift of forgiveness and obey all His principles. Don’t go to the extreme of condemning yourself.

David committed adultery and murder, yet God called him a man after his own heart. God restored him, and he was one of the most famous kings on earth.

Don’t doubt Gods love, when He says He has forgiven you, He means exactly that.
Embrace His love and His forgiveness.

I believe you have found these steps helpful. May God enlighten our darkness in Jesus name.

God bless your marriage!

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
My marriage is blessed and fruitful

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Ask for the grace to be a good spouse

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
I bless GOD every chance I get; my lungs expand with his praise. –Psalms 34:1 (MSG)

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Put the above points to practice

Understanding What God Hates

Understanding What God Hates

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Today from the book of Proverbs, I will be showing you a list of things God hates, and the things children of God shouldn’t get involved in.

I want you to read with rapt attention, and take note of all I will be teaching you today.

See what the Bible says here:

Here are six things God hates, and one more that he loathes with a passion: eyes that are arrogant, a tongue that lies, hands that murder the innocent, a heart that hatches evil plots, feet that race down a wicked track, a mouth that lies under oath, a troublemaker in the family. –Proverbs 6:16-19 (MSG)

1. Eyes That Are Arrogant

The first thing here is pride and arrogance. God doesn’t like these two things; in fact, the bible says he hates them. God doesn’t want you to see yourself above others, or treat other people like you are better than they are; he wants you to love everyone just like Jesus loves us all.

2. Tongue That Lies

This is another thing God hates, God doesn’t want you to lie as his child. He wants you to tell the truth at all times, regardless of whether it will get you in trouble or not. Always stand for the truth at all time, let your YES be YES, and your NO be NO at all times.

  1. Hands That Murder The Innocent

Murder means to kill someone, not just to kill, but a killing that is premeditated. You know it’s wrong to kill; it’s against the commandment of God and the laws of men too. Murder is a crime everywhere in the world.

To be continued.

PRAYER:
Father in the name of Jesus, I help me to do your will always. Amen

ACTION PLAN:
Write what you have learnt today in points and paste it on a wall in your room

DECLARATION:
I am the beloved of God, and I think as God thinks
