Man is a tripartite being. We are spirits, we live in a body and we have a soul.
The spirit communicates with God. The body communicates with the realm of the physical. The soul houses the will, the emotions and the intellect.
When we give our life to Jesus and we come to know Him, the spirit is regenerated, the soul is in the process of being renewed, but the body will be saved when Jesus comes back.
However, the voice of the body or flesh is loud. So loud that if left to operate, it will superimpose its lusts and cravings over the spirit, thereby leading into a cycle of failure and divers problems. The flesh has no gain or profit therein. None!
You will find that here in the scriptures.
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
Joh 6:63 (KJV)
Amplified Bible says the flesh has no benefit. Take a look:
It is the Spirit Who gives life [He is the Life-giver]; the flesh conveys no benefit whatever [there is no profit in it]. The words (truths) that I have been speaking to you are spirit and life.
Joh 6:63 (AMPC)
Living in the flesh and taking instructions from the body conveys no benefit. That is quite instructive.
The next probable question is what then do we do to the body?
We are to discipline the body. And we do that by putting the body under!
But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
1Co 9:27 (KJV)
You put the body under by not listening to its cravings and instructions. If you keep listening to the voice of the body, you can point others to God while not making it! That will not be our portion in Jesus name.
Decide to stop all habitual sins. Listen to your spirit rather than take instructions from the body.
May God grant you more understanding in Jesus name, Amen.
CONFESSION FOR THE DAY I put my body under.
PRAYER FOR THE DAY Help me to put my body under oh Lord.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY 1 Corinthians 9:27 (TPT) but I train like a champion athlete. I subdue my body and get it under my control, so that after preaching the good news to others I myself won’t be disqualified.
Mrs Adet is almostalways sad. She is not a happy wife neither is she a happy woman. This is because she feels battered most of the time. Not physically, as a matter of fact, her husband has never lifted up his hands against her. But there is a much worse thing being lifted against her, it’s his tongue!
The scripture says
There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.
Pro 12:18 (KJV)
Her husband is the sharp-mouthed man who speaks so bluntly without emotions or sentiments.
Over time, their marriage was unhealthy. They spoke back and forth to each other using toxic vocabularies.
Mr. Adet has to come into a place of learning how to talk properly to his wife before their marriage could be healed.
Every husband and wife alike must learn how to speak properly to their spouses.
Take a look at the scripture
The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
Isa 50:4 (KJV)
This is where every couple should be!
Use the tongue of the learned on one another and speak words that will strengthen and not weary.
This is what every couple should work towards.
Let’s take a look at another translation as we conclude this morning.
The Master, GOD, has given me a well-taught tongue, So I know how to encourage tired people. He wakes me up in the morning, wakes me up, opens my ears to listen as one ready to take orders.
Isa 50:4 (MSG)
Have a blessed day!
CONFESSION FOR THE DAY I receive the strength to speak rightly to my spouse.
PRAYER FOR THE DAY Ask for strength as couples
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Job 6:25 (KJV) How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove?
In this series, you will be learning how to glorify God with your body. Like you must have been taught in school, your body comprises both the outer and inner parts. From your skin to fingers to the liver, to the intestines, they all form your body.
These parts all have their functions and contribute to the perfect functioning of your body.
An abnormality in one of these parts can affect other parts and even lead to the breakdown of the whole body.
Each one of us has a body, and that body has many parts. These parts all have different uses.
Romans 12:4 ICB
Children, remember that the bible makes us to understand that you were created in the image of God.
Then God said, “Let us make man in our image and likeness…”
Gen. 1:26 ICB
There are few implications of being made in the image of God. Let’s consider them.
1. Your body should be safe and holy for God: Your God is holy and only by being holy can you please Him
2. There are ways to keep your body safe and holy: As a child, you will get to a stage in your life when you have to take care of your body yourself. Your parents won’t have to bathe you any longer or help wash your clothes again.
3. Taking care of your body is worship to God: Worshipping God goes beyond singing praises to God. Your body is a gift from God, so take good care of it.
May God grant you the grace to glorify God in your body in Jesus name, amen.
Prayer: Dear Lord, grant me the grace to understand why I should keep my body holy for you and help me do so. Amen.
Action point: Have you been careless with the way you keep your body? Repent!
Declaration: I keep my body pure because I am made in the image of God.

Confession For Today
Oil For Today – Day 84
Today, I receive my breakthrough. Today, I receive my healing. I am prosperous in this land. I lay claim of God’s promises for my relationship/marriage. My harvest is here. Devil, take your hands off my business. You have been defeated and you are a liar. I declare that my desires are granted by my Father in heaven. No more stagnation. No more retrogression. No more, not me. This month, I go forward. I advance. I make progress. So shall it be in Jesus name, Amen.
I want to quickly discuss three areas that I believe all singles should pay attention to. These areas will affect all other areas of our lives, invariably.
Here they are:
Food Intake As singles, you need to take care of your body. Watch what you eat! Like someone savagely puts it, don’t let your teeth become shovels with which you dig your grave!
But in reality, that is what happens to some people. That will not be your portion in Jesus name!
Some of us are addicted to certain kinds of food. This is not good.
It is a lack of self-control that will make you overeat. The one who overeats and the one who gets high on drugs are basically the same.
Gluttony is a terrible sin the bible frowns at. The Bible says
For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags.
Pro 23:21
No matter how strong the spirit is, once the body comes apart, the spirit will have to move. This is why it is important to take care of your body.
Money You are supposed to have money, not more having you. Money is good, but the love of it is evil according to scriptural injunctions.
You must not allow the Mammon spirit to take over your life and regulate it. You must continually love God and never allow the love of money to be prioritized above God in your life.
Honor God with your finances and see him lift you up.
Your Love walk Avoid all works of the flesh as bitterness, bickering, animosities, and unforgiving spirit.
Learn to forgive quickly and really quick. This way, you will not harbor a wrong spirit within you.
Be blessed in Jesus name.
CONFESSION FOR TODAY I am disciplined.
PRAYER FOR TODAY Lord, help me to pay attention to these areas.
THOUGHT FOR TODAY Proverbs 9:10 (KJV)The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
Ever wondered what your husband really wants from you as a wife? Sometimes, most wives are just oblivious of how to please their husbands. This feeling of being at a loss in your matrimonial home is not a pleasant one at all.
Every man expects his wife to respect him
As you might have discovered, respect is a very big issue for men. Every wife should show respect to her husband. The principle of sowing and reaping also comes into place here. As you honour your husband, he will honour you as well.
Every man expects his wife to be homely Caring comes naturally for women. If you, as a woman are not caring, your husband will not enjoy you. You should be able to take care of the home, make good meals, and look after the kids.
Every man expects his wife to pray for him always. Wives, pray for your husbands. Women are very powerful. A praying wife is a terror to the devil. If your wife prays for you genuinely, you will see the advancement it will bring to your life.
Every man expects his wife to look good all the time. Nobody wants his wife looking twice her age because men are moved by sight. I like her looking beautiful for me at all times. Wives, look your best for your husband. Do not get careless with your dressing. There are dangerous ladies dressing to “kill” out there. Be wise.
Every man expects his wife to support him My wife should be my number one fan. I expect her to support me and all I stand for. No husband can go far without a supportive wife.
Every man expects his wife to be active in bed You probably thought I wouldn’t add that. This is important to men. If you want to keep your marriage standing, keep the bedroom hot! It should not be used as a reward or punishment.
Do not refuse and deprive and defraud each other [ of your due marital rights ], except perhaps by mutual consent for a time, so that you may devote yourselves unhindered to prayer. But afterwards resume marital relations, lest Satan tempt you [ to sin ] through your lack of restraint of sexual desire.
In the beginning, was the word. The passage in John 1 verse 1 tells us to always have the word as our foundation. Children can know God’s Word. No matter what we want to do for our children, the word has to be the beginning of it.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:1
Our children must be made to understand that life outside the word is a life of crisis. At the beginning of their lives, they should be introduced to the word, who is God. Children can know the Word of the LORD.
They having a good relationship with the word will help shape their lives and prepare them for the times ahead.
Declaration: My children know the word. They have a good beginning. Their foundation is set right.
Prayers: My children will love God’s word in Jesus’ name. Amen
Waiting On God was taught by Rev. Dunamis Okunowo on the 29th of September 2021 at Shouts of Grace Center, Joke Plaza, Beside Trans Amusement Park, Bodija-UI Road, Ibadan.
In his teaching, Rev. Dunamis made mention of the following important points:
One of the things you must seek to have during your time of waiting on God is the voice of God. As you wait upon the LORD, you must seek to receive His Word/instruction; for that becomes your compass for the next phase of your life.
Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
John 16:13 (KJV)
From this Scripture we see three (3) things:
The guidance of the Holy Spirit
The voice of the Holy Spirit
The revelation of things to come
On Guidance
There are two purposes of the Holy Spirit when it comes to guidance:
To reveal to you the things in the Bible (the general guidance)
To reveal to you the things outside the Word of God (the specific guidance)
One of the places you don’t want to get to in life is the place where you can’t hear the voice of the Holy Spirit
The Specific Guidance of the Holy Spirit can come in four ways:
Through the revelation of the Holy Spirit (in your heart)
Through dreams
Through visions
Through angels
There are three ways the Holy Spirit can speak to you:
Inward Peace You don’t hear anything on the outside, but you just know this is what you have to do
Inward Witness There is a stronger witness, than inward peace, that this is what you are meant to do.
Inward Voice You hear an actual voice on your inside.
The design of God to keep you out of trouble is the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
When you learn to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit, it will help you in giving.
Any time you don’t hear the Holy Spirit, you put yourself in a place where the devil can negotiate your harvest out of your hands.
There are two ways to become sensitive to the Holy Spirit
Fasting
Prayer
Fasting without prayer is hunger strike. Fasting will put down the outward man while prayer will build up the inner man.
Fasting is not just going without food. It is not just taking something out of your life, but putting something in your life (praise, the Word, etc.) Waiting On God helps you to be able to hear God. It helps you tune in to the frequency of heaven/God.
Things will remain as they are if you don’t gain spiritual strength. And you gain this strength through fasting and prayer.
Some Seasons You Need To Fast
When fear is reoccurring about the same issue
When your conscience is seared. (A seared conscience cannot hear the Holy Ghost. Continual disobedience will lead to a seared conscience)
When you observe a negative behavioural pattern in your life
When you are about to take a major decision. Every man must learn to hear God for his family
When you are sensing a great change
When you are sensing a new level
When you are at the point of transition
When your anointing is waning
When you are expecting a revival
Some Results Of Fasting
You will hear God more
You become more sensitive
You will heighten angelic intervention
You get enlargement
You get deliverance

Sandy is a cute lady whose mien portrays a beauty that is heavenly, however within her is a world of deception that is far from reality, characterized by fantasy and wishful thinking.
Her condition was made worse from endless reading of romantic novels and spending hours on romantic movies. Her brain has been filled with romantic junks, predicated on wrong notions that are completely anti-scripture.
Her issue is even made complicated because of a wonderful pulchritude she presents with no clues such junky thoughts are swimming within.
God’s word has the ability to dissolve every fantasy and reset the brain through a complete rewiring!
For although we live in the natural realm, we don’t wage a military campaign employing human weapons, using manipulation to achieve our aims. Instead, our spiritual weapons are energized with divine power to effectively dismantle the defenses behind which people hide. We can demolish every DECEPTIVE FANTASY that opposes God and break through every arrogant attitude that is raised up in defiance of the true knowledge of God. We capture, like prisoners of war, every thought and insist that it bow in obedience to the Anointed One.
2Co 10:3-5 (TPT)
We can demolish every deceptive fantasy! Whatever has been set up in defiance to the true knowledge of God can be demolished according to the word of God.
This is done by deliberate and conscious effort at READING, STUDYING AND MEDITATING on God’s word. Hey! The more you meditate on that word truthfully, the more you set up yourself for total freedom from every negative and toxic thought patterns that seek to hold you down!
I pray this morning that God will set you free from all toxic thoughts in Jesus name!
CONFESSION FOR THE DAY My mind is filled with God’s word
PRAYER FOR THE DAY Ask that God will reprogram your mind
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Romans 12:2 (KJV) And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY Read, study, and meditate on the word
How much shouldhusbands and wives love themselves? They should be intoxicated with one another! That is how much!
We see this right in the scripture.
Son 1:2 (KJV) Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine.
Take a look at the Message Translation:
Son 1:2 (GW) [Bride] Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth. Your expressions of love are better than wine,
Love is to be expressed. And these expressions or actions are compared with wine and even much better.
What does wine do?
It gets you high and intoxicated, makes you feel happy and animated.
Here, the writer says, the expressions of your love is much better than wine.
As husbands and wives, you are to be intoxicated with each other. You should look forward to one another. You should constantly pray for one another from a genuine heart!
And you know what, you can only do this by focusing on each other.
Do not allow anybody to come in between the two of you. Do not allow a third party to sow any seed of discord into your love. Get drunk of each other.
The ploy of the devil is to cause irritations, quarrels, misunderstandings, animosity and the like. You must be sensitive to avoid all these in your marriage so that your marriage will not be hindered in any way.
Let God’s love rule in your marriage, and this will in turn regulate your actions and reactions and bring out the best in your marital relationship.
Demonstrate your love for one another through expression of kisses. Don’t let the wedding kiss be the last memory of a good kiss!
Get drunk with Holy Spirit, and get drunk with one another.
May God grant you more understanding in Jesus name!
CONFESSION FOR THE DAY I love my spouse and I focus on him/her
PRAYER FOR THE DAY Ask for the grace to focus on your spouse
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Song of Solomon 1:2 (KJV) Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine.
ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY Give your spouse a good kiss
God is love and he expresses that love by giving us his only son. And we should practice giving as the Lord, and giving as the Lord commands. How easy did you think that was?
Giving unto God should come from a place of sincerity of heart, so that our gifts will be accepted.
The Holy Spirit, speaking through Apostle Paul, told us a mystery about giving.
He said the first thing to do when you want to give is to decide in your heart.
2 Cor 9:7 Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. (ESV)
Many people give out of sentiments or emotions. But don’t do that. You should practice giving as the Lord, and giving as the Lord commands.
Give cheerfully and joyfully. Joyful giving is another wonderful way of giving. It comes from your heart, especially when you see the amount of happiness you put on the faces of others.
The bible tells us to give with joy at all times. Not with grumbling or anger. But with intense joy.
God gives us with joy. He created the earth with joy in His heart. The bible tells us that while creating the earth, He kept seeing the things he was creating as good.
He kept creating out of the joy in his heart from seeing the wonderful things He was creating.
Be like God today, give with joy. As you bless others with joy, God will equally bless you too with joy. Learn the art of giving as the Lord, and giving as the Lord commands.
God bless you.
Prayer: Lord, teach me to give with joy. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Action point: When next you want to give somebody something, do so with much joy.
Declaration: I am a cheerful giver. I give with joy.

Sade is just simply toxic in her way of thinking and dealing with issues. This is brought about by several disappointments she has gone through in the hands of guys, especially. She believes life has not been fair to her at all. She watched a lot of her friends get married one by one while nothing seems to be happening in her life.
She prayed and prayed but it was as though God is not listening to her. She got to a place where she actually gave up and she was no longer rejoicing with those who rejoice.
Her pastime became having itchy ears and looking for negative news which seems to excite her. When she hears that someone has a broken relationship, she seems happy. She would not stop at that, but she would consciously begin to spread the news as if it was some good news. This she did and did not even know she was in error.
This is in direct contradiction to what we are supposed to do as believers. It is never in our place to spread negative news. As a matter of fact, what we are supposed to do at such times is to pray for such people, so that such will not be your experience.
When King Saul died, it could have been a time for David to start rejoicing and keep mouthing it all over. But check out what he said here:
Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Askelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
2Sa 1:20 (KJV)
He understood covenant. He said the news is not to be published!
My words of advice for you this morning is simple. Avoid being happy when something unfortunate happens to others, even when such people are perceived enemies.
Pray for them and you will unleash a new realm of favour upon your life!
Be blessed in Jesus name!
CONFESSION FOR THE DAY I choose to rejoice with those who are happy
PRAYER FOR THE DAY Oh Lord, help me to genuinely rejoice with those rejoicing.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Romans 12:15 [ESV] Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.
Women occupy a major part in the plan of God, in the life of a man and in the society in general. Her role and importance cannot be over-emphasized as this is exemplified in her capacity to cause procreation to become a reality. She is the woman, the man with a womb, The womb-man!
She is the help-meet! The helper for the man. Isn’t it interesting that she and the Holy Spirit are the ones referred to as helpers throughout the scripture?
You grieve the Holy Spirit, your prayers can be hindered. You grieve your wife, your prayers can be hindered as well.
Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; THAT YOUR PRAYERS BE NOT HINDERED.
1Pe 3:7 (KJV)
But that is not my emphasis this morning.
I want you to look at a scripture addressed to women here:
…To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.
Tit 2:5 (KJV)
The scripture is saying as a wife, if you are not discreet, if you are not chaste, if you are not keepers at home, if you are not good, if you are not obedient to your husband, God’s word CAN BE BLASPHEMED!
That is serious!
Consider that Scripture in other translations for more clarity:
…be virtuous and pure, keep a good house, be good wives. We don’t want ANYONE LOOKING DOWN ON GOD’S MESSAGE BECAUSE OF THEIR BEHAVIOR.
Tit 2:5 (MSG)
…and to be self-controlled and pure, taking care of their household and being devoted to their husbands. By doing these things the word of God WILL NOT BE DISCREDITED.
Tit 2:5 (TPT)
The word of God must not be looked down on!
The word of God must not be discredited!
Go ahead and meditate on that verse and apply it to your life while looking at areas you need to make adjustments!
God bless you!
Good morning!
CONFESSION FOR THE DAY I will not grief my spouse.
PRAYER FOR THE DAY Pray that you will not grief your wife
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Titus 2:5[ESV]to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.
Recognizing Jesus as the only way is important. Imagine you want to reach a place and there’s only one way to reach there. Just one way to get there. You search the internet, look it up on the map, ask around, do all you can, but still can’t seem to find an alternative route. You can’t think of another way. No one can show another way and if they do, it’s the wrong way.
That’s the same way it is with Christ.
Look at the verse below
“Jesus answered him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one goes to the Father except through me.
John 14:6 [GW]
That was Jesus telling the disciples about how to get to know God. He means that only a person who has accepted Jesus as Lord and Saviour can get to God and get to heaven. Recognizing Jesus as the only way is important.
Jesus was simply saying; you want to know the Father, you come through me. I am the P.A to the heavenlies. I am not just a way, I am THE WAY. I am not just a door, I am THE DOOR.
There is no other way. Any other way is the wrong way and it won’t get you to heaven.
Children, do you want to go to heaven? Do not listen to people who say there is another way to heaven. Recognizing Jesus as the only way is important. I like the way this translation puts it;
Jesus answered, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. The only way to the Father is through me.
John 14:6 [ERV]
The only way to the Father is through Jesus, no other way.
Selah!
Have you accepted Christ as your Saviour?
Prayer: Lord, Jesus, I thank you for being the only way to God. Thank You for making it so simple.
Action point: Accept Christ into your life today. Tomorrow might just be too late.
Declaration: I accept Jesus as the only way. He will lead me to the Father. Amen
