Pursue! By Pastor Dunamis (2nd January 2022)

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Pursue! was taught by Rev. Dunamis Okunowo on the 2nd of January 2022 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:

The pattern of God is to change you so that you can then change the situation. If there’s no change in you there will be no change around you.

The new year won’t make much difference if there’s no new you. You will have the same results till there’s a change in you.

2022 is going to be a very quick year, because God said ‘pursue!’

And David enquired at the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all.” 1 Samuel 30:8 (KJV)

God is a God of process; He is not a magician.

This is the year to pursue; not a year to sit down and allow the waves of life to toss you up and down.
Make up your mind to be a very deliberate person.

The devil may not be able to kill you, but he would try to steal from you.

Your goods that have been tapered with will be recovered this year in the name of Jesus.
You will drive that car this year.
You will build that house this year.
You will start that project this year.
You will marry this year.

God has given you an assurance of recovery, all you need to do is pursue.

Our running this year is purposeful.

The first thing to take note of in pursuing this year is your dressing. You can’t run effectively with extra loads on your body.

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Hebrews 12:1

This year, shed off all the weights and sin you’re carrying, and run light.
All the power of hell cannot stop the word of God; only you can!

Weights are not sin, but they slow you down in your journey.
Sin is anything that offends God.

Two ways to forgive someone quickly

1. Pray for the blessing of that person

2. Buy a gift for that person

Decide to work the work until that which God has spoken becomes your experience.
Years will be collapsed into 2022, and then extracted for you.
Ensure that there is no situation that steals your joy, for it is your joy that grants you the strength needed to pursue.

How Children Can Pray From The Bible

How Children Can Pray From The Bible

Reading Time: 2 minutes

In today’s article, we would be examining how children can pray, as seen in the Bible. The bible is full of so many power-packed prayers from ordinary people like you and me, who faced one issue or another at different times in bible history.

It’s a reservoir of prayers said out of fear, pain, and loneliness. Some were faced with destruction and had to cry out for help. Some more said prayers out of confusion, hopelessness, and despair. Prayers for mercy, deliverance, and strength are found in the bible, said by people who were faced with huge challenges. And in these stories we see how children can pray.

Sometimes, God can lead you to a particular book, chapter, and verse in the bible as a guide to pray with. When directed to read from the bible, obey. That way, you get to know what God wants to teach or tell you about that burning issue in your mind.

David praised and worshipped God a lot in the psalms. His prayers also showed that he too had fears and prayed about them. He had hope in God to save him from all his enemies. And the Bible records that God gave him victory over all his enemies. Reading these life stories, you learn how children can pray.

 When he was afraid, lost, and unsure of what to do –“Later David prayed to the Lord. David said,

“Should I go up to any of the cities of Judah? The lord said to David, “Go”. David asked, “Where should I go?” The Lord answered, “To Hebron”. 1 Sam. 2:1 ICB

 As you learn how children can pray, include reading and meditation from the bible. God bless you as you do so. Amen

Prayer:
Lord, as you lead me to read the bible, help me to grasp the meaning of what I read. Help me meditate on these readings so I can learn how to pray. Amen.

 Action point:
Read some Psalms of David. Note the different ways he prayed for help, forgiveness, and other things.

Declaration:
Prayer is the master key, so I use it well.
