TOPIC: SECRET OF HAPPINESS -1

BASIC SCRIPTURE:
2 KINGS 4: 18 - 37.

It was Abraham Hicks who penned: “My happiness depends on me, so you’re off the hook.” As 2020 ends, determine not to allow anything or person to STEAL YOUR JOY! Always remember that THE JOY OF THE LORD IS YOUR STRENGTH (Neh 8:10)! The LORD wants you to be happy, no matter what is going on! REJOICE ALWAYS even when all you see is GLOOM! Practice feeling good, no matter what! “Happiness is an inside job. Don’t assign anyone else that much power over your life.” (Mandy Hale).
Truly, many people wait for something to happen or someone to make them happy. If you expect others to make you happy, you will always be disappointed. Choose to do more activities that’ll bring, you joy as long as they are not sinful or evil to your body and soul. Being responsible means not blaming others for your unhappiness, it means figuring out ways to be happy despite the negative benaviour of others and despite every external influence. Get the message clear again: No one can make you happy, nor can you make anyone else happy. Never sacrifice yourself for the sake of making other people happy!

NEVER! I know of parents whose happiness depends on children or BEST FRIENDS! No! None of these people can make you feel good always! Your joy is in your hands! You must love your neighbour as yourself! Not above yourself! Self-neglect a God-neglect stands at the very top of this list of depression causes. You don’t have to fit into people’s plans for you! They were not there when God created you: Choose to be happy BY FORCE! As long as you are breathing your own air given to you by God, then all you need is the approval of that God AND NOT OF PEOPLE! He will move PEOPLE to bow to you at last! Be Happy!

Be Well! Be Positive! That was the secret of the Shunammite woman. She kept saying: IT IS WELL! IT IS WELL! IT IS WELL even when a DEAD baby was in her house! She never told her husband that their only child was dead! She was not going to allow ANTHING OR ANYBODY to affect her joy! Live like that even when your world is a storm! BE POSITIVE and hold on because HE THAT KEEPETH ISRAEL CANNOT LIE! Amen.. (More tomorrow).

SECRET OF HAPPINESS: GIVE YOURSELF MORE ATTENTION – 2

BASIC SCRIPTURE:
JOHN 9: 1 - 25.

Life is really hard sometimes; but God wants you to discover how to become the UNSTOPPABLE VERSION OF YOU, free from self-hate and addictive drugs or false happiness habits. There’s no escaping that reality. It’s impossible to live well without encountering some level of struggle, and there are some seasons in our lives that are especially heartbreakıng:

A major failure, delays, loss of a job, a divorce, broken courtship, loss of a loved one, loss of trusted friends, painful betrayal by those you trusted, loss of a business deal or bankruptcy, etc. CIRCUMSTANCES can produce worry which further creates a life of deep, dark depression, stress, illness, confusion, fits of anger and bouts of profound depression. Anyone who has experienced any of the above knows that they are a river of horror! When you are in a season when the devil tries to knock you down from all sides with unhappiness, the key to your escape is to: give yourself MORE ATTENTION! The truth is, everyone experiences unhappy circumstances in one form or the other!

There were days in my life, when getting out of bed was a big accomplishment because I wished I never woke up. Wow! But, the Holy Ghost wants you to know that a vast amount of unhappiness is as a result of SELF-NEGLECT. During my-10 years of darkness and deep depression in which I attempted suicide, I HATED MYSELF because I felt I had made a VITAL MISTAKE in my life! Just after I discovered OUR DAILY MANNA on the day I wanted to commit suicide, I’ve learned now to cope with the hard times, the pain and disappointments, and above all, I’ve learned the vital importance of self-love and self-care – the maIgic that makes smilıng again (and again) possible.

The man in today’s scripture did not allow the opinion of the Pharisees to affect his joy! He stood his ground and said: “…one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.” ONE THING I KNOW! He was saying (paraphrased): “I may not know all that you know, but ONE THING KNOW. I am now complete in my joy and I am not going to allow you to determine my happiness. ONE THING I KNOW and that ONE THING is enough.” Oh! The emphasis was on HIMSELF and what he knew! Ah Lift up your hands and praise the LORD who gave you your own AIR! You are a VIP! Give yourself more attention! Love yourself! Others are not better than you no matter what they know or who they are!

In the midst of your battles, create your own happiness by force! Start today!

TOPIC: I DON’T GO OUT OF THE HOUSE – 1!

BASIC SCRIPTURES: EXODUS 12 : 21 - 32; EXODUS 15 : 26.

Welcome to today’s devotional encounter with Jehovah the DISEASE SILENCER.” Share with me this testimony: “My name is Malaku Gambo Maku. I write to testify of what the awesome God did for me and some of my colleagues, some of my colleagues contracted Covid-19 through a pharmacist who also got it from her Doctor husband. She was complaining of not feeling too well, but the boss insisted that she must come to work, though the boss didn’t know that it was Covid-19.

During contact tracing, my name and 8 other members of staff were mentioned to go for compulsory Covid-19 test/isolation and it was during the 14-day 2020 fasting programme – on day 6 of the fasting to be precise. The 9 of us and other people from other places amounting to 40 in number did the test. I wrote this issue as one of my prayer points for the 14-day fasting programme. I told God that for my sake, let none of us that did the test in the State be positive. Sir, my God that fetches water with a basket to disgrace the bucket did it. There was no recorded issue in the State the day the results were to be released.

The result finally came out as negative and no one has contacted us again on any Covid-19 issue! God is faithful! To Him be the Glory. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Sir (sent via florencekonto@yahoo.com , the devil came at the wrong time. During the 14-day worldwide fast, God is using today’s devotional to encourage somebody: THERE IS A BLOOD COVER AROUND YOU AND ALL THAT IS CONNECTED TO YOU AROUND YOU. Even if you make any mistake (you are human) during this COVID-19 SEASON, refuse to PANIC.

Don’t forget that this particular testifier was named during the CONTACT TRACING. She/he had came into contact with these COVID-19 infected colleagues. Oh! Wonderful Jesus! But note that today’s 1st scripture, Vs. 22 says: “And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning. Hyssop is a type of your faith! You must APPLY THE BLOOD BY FAITH! Refuse to fear what others are fearing! Note also that you are to dip the hyssop in the blood and apply it to the top of the lintel and the two side posts (the CROSS sign).

As you apply the BLOOD and refuse to leave the house, no matter the matter, then no sickness, divination, incantation, legion of enemies, etc can get at you. As 2020 ends, despite the battles and some delay to your prayers, no matter how the year has been, REFUSE TO GO OUT OF THE HOUSE! Stay in the house! Stay in faith and the BLOOD COVER shall PROTECT, PRESERVE and speak forth your testimony in your due season! Hold on and hold out! (Continues tomorrow…

PRAYER POINTS: Take any song of worship as led.

1. In your own words, pray about today’s word as led…
2. Thank God for all He did during the past 14-day fasting programme and for all He will still do in the upcoming 21-day fast of January (9th-29th) 2021. Decree that it shall be permanent!

TOPIC: DON’T GO OUT OF THE HOUSE – 2! THE TESTIMONY OF “FOR MY SAKE"

BASIC SCRIPTURE: GENESIS 26: 16 - 30.

Recollect that the testimony of yesterday contained the following “FIRE LINES: “During contact tracing, my name and 8 other members of staff were mentioned to go for compulsory Covid-19 test/isolation and it was during the 14-day 2020 fasting programme – on day 6 of the fasting to be precise. The 9 of us and other people from other places amounting to 40 did the test.
I wrote this issue as one of my prayer points for the 14-day fasting programme. I told God that for my sake, let none of us that did the test in the State be positive. Sir, my God that fetches water with a basket to disgrace the bucket did it. This testifier prayed FOR MY SAKE” prayers and God gave her a “FOR MY SAKE” testimony! It is also called “BLESSING BY ASSOCIATION.” God also covered the rest for her/his Sake! That shall be your portion as 2020 ends and 2021 begins!

Please don’t miss the January 21-day prayer and fasting programme January 8th-29th) Today’s scripture Vs. 24 says: And the LORD appeared unto him the same night, and said, am the God of Abraham thy Father: fear not, for I am with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for My servant Abraham’s sake. Note: for My servant Abraham’s sake. Then Genesis 30:27 says, “And Laban said unto him, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thine eyes, tarry: for have learned by experience that the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake.” I prophesy: From this day, men and women shall declare: The LORD hath blessed me for thy sake."

Also, Genesis 39:5 is clear: “And it came to pass from the time that he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptia’s house for Joseph’s sake, and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field.” Oh, may that be your testimony! Do you know too that FOR YOUR SAKE, God can kill? Sec Isaiah 43:4: “Since thou was precious in My sight, thou hast been honourable, and have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.

Yes God can give men (silence them forever) for your sake. He did it for Mordecai! He did it for Daniel! He did it for Peter (all the guards were executed for his sake-see Acts 12: 19). For your sake, for you to fulfill your destiny, God can cause men/women to die! Wow! Arise today and pray seriously: “LORD MY GOD; rain upon me, the SPECIAL FAVOUR/ANOINTING OF “FOR MY SAKE” to my family and generation in Jesus name.”

PRAYER POINTS: Take any song of praise as led.

1. In your own words, pray about today’s word as led.
2. O LORD MY GOD, rain upon me, the SPECIAL FAVOUR/ANOINTING OF “FOR MY SAKE" to my family and generation in Jesus name.
3. From this day, by the grace of God, men and women shall declare: “The LORD hath blessed me for thy sake.”
4. Lord, FOR MY SAKE, stop judgment! And FOR MY SAKE released honour and uncommon GRACE on everyone connected to my destiny for good in Jesus name. 5. Pray about today seriously.

TOPIC: LIFE IS NOT A PLAYGROUND! BUT GOD HAS A PLAN!

BASIC SCRIPTURE:
JOB 23: 1 - 21

Trials teach us WHO WE ARE! They make up the soil and show us what we are made of. In the midst of your trials and pain, don’t ever think you are being PUNISHED by an ANGRY GOD; always see the battles He allows you to go through as His way of PURGING AND PRUNING (TRIMMING) you to become a greater JEWEL in His showroom. Don’t you PRUNE (CUT and TRIM) your precious trees or gardens? What is the result? A MORE BEAUTIFUL GARDEN! Do you TRIM your garden because you are ANGRY? No! You TRIM and cut out WEEDS because a more GLORIOUS GARDEN is your goal.
That is the story of your life! No wonder Job said in Job 23:10 – “But He knoweth the way that I take: when He hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.” I prophesy: YOUR ENTIRE LIFE, FAMILY AND MINISTRY WILL COME FORTH AS GOLD! Yes! Your marital story will come forth as gold! Your financial story will come forth as gold! Your career and ministry story will come forth as gold! Your health will come forth as gold! The story of your children will come forth as gold! As 2020 ends, stop crying in secret! STOP pitying yourself or envying others!
EVERYBODY HAS A CROSS THEY ARE CARRYING! Listen: LIFE IS NOT A PLAYGROUND BUT A CLASSROOM!
God is at work! He makes no mistakes! God alone knows what each of us must endure in order for HIS CHARACTER TO BE FORMED IN US! It is in our trials that God REFINES us and removes our impurities. Like refined gold and the silversmith at word, when you pass through your trials, the world will see HIS REFLECTION in you!
REFUSE TO QUIT NOW! Hold on, hold out and TRUST HIM! Your God has a plan!

TOPIC: WHEN THE TWO PREACHERS FOUGHT: THERE IS SPACE FOR ALL!

BASIC SCRIPTURE:
1 CORINTHIANS 3 :1 -15

1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.

2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.

3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

4 For while one saith, U am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?

5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.

7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.

10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

13 Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is.

14 If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.

15 If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

There was a state Of pandemonium in a market in the Ashanti Regional capital, Kumasi, Ghana, as two self-styled evangelists were seen fighting for space to preach. The pastors who were very “passionate” about preaching the Word of God to the market women and passerbys began exchanging words after one of the pastors overtook the other to mount his equipment at the exact spot the other pastor preaches. Angered by the overtaking, the second pastor who was late to work could not fathom why his brother in Christ would “steal” his shine. The two then began jabbing each other which resulted in a hot exchange of blows. In a video, the two pastors who dragged the fight to the centre of the market managed to be separated by some men in the market.

WOW! of the end times! I know of two churches that use loud, audio, speakers to “fight” themselves because they use the same building on Sundays! Ah! Some ministers and even believers are doing God’s work for their stomach’s sake Many are now “motivational speakers” instead of preaching the pure GOSPEL of heaven!

As ministers of God are competing all over the world instead of complementing themselves, the Holy Ghost wants you to ponder over today’s devotional scripture:1 Corinthians 3:6 “I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.” So, it’s not about Apollos or Paul personality worship! It’s not about your shouting oratorial skills on the pulpit! It’s not about using the word, “MIRACLE” to deceive the crowd. It’s about the LORD who gives the INCREASE! Note this: As the sky is too big for two stars to clash, the world is big enough for all of us to shine! Remember that every man s work shall be tried by fire in the end! May you not suffer loss!

Don’t forget that in the big ocean, two fishes do not collide Stop fighting or envying others when it is their season to shine! In your season, you will be unstoppable! I always pray for ALL ministers of God as they minister every Sunday, even though I am also facing my pulpit at the Manna Mountain, that same Sunday. Refuse to compete! There is No Church Or Ministry In Heaven! Pray for others! Your star will shine in your due season! Pray now! GO to your local church today!

PRAYER POINTS:Take Song 2: My faith looks up..

1. In your own words, pray about today's word as led.
2. Lord, I repent from any WRONG MOTIVE!
3. Lord, I repent from any UNDUE COMPETITON with others in the body of Christ!
4. I receive GRACE never to COMPETE or fight for positions in the house of God: Pray for Israel today.
5. I refuse to remain a carnal believer or BABE IN CHRIST. I MUST GROW in the LORD in Jesus name.
6. My star shall shine in my season and I am unstoppable in Jesus Name Pray about today!

TOPIC: EXECUTED TWICE! DIED ONCE! – 1
BASIC SCRIPTURE: ISAIAH 53: 1 - 6

On the day of his execution, he was strapped in an electric chair and as the current went through him- he never died! After all efforts to execute him on that chair failed, his final cries were for the strap to be removed. The straps were eventually removed and he was taken, back into custody. However after his survival, he then filed a lawsuit claiming that he was safe from execution as they had already executed him and that he hadn’t died. It was a popular case at that time even among legal experts worldwide! Can a faulty electric chair mean that the convict had been killed? Most of the executions in 1940’s Mississippi (one of the most racist states in the US) were of black people. Unfortunately, his legal battles and appeals failed and he was finally executed the following year by an electric chair that had been well tested.

Wow! Sometimes, apart from Pharmacy, I wish I had read Law in addition! The Holy Ghost wants you to know that while LEGALLY he was wrong to have claimed that HE COULD NOT BE EXECUTED OR KILLED TWICE, in spiritual issues, that line of reasoning is right! Jesus Christ was described as the LASTADAM and He came to take/bear the PUNISHIMENT of what was caused by the FIRST ADAM. Isaiah 53: 4 says: Surely He hath borne our grief’s, and carried our sorrows.. Vs 5 says: “But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and With His stripes, we are healed.” See Vs. 6: “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way, and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. “The LORD LAID on Him, the iniquity of us ALL- even before you were born. So, In the law of natural justice, YOU CANNOT PUNISH A MAN OR WOMAN TWICE! Someone cannot be made to serve a prison sentence twice! lt is immoral and illegal. Likewise, you are not permitted to serve the punishment that has been served on your behalf. Jesus Christ served your punishment! Oh, halleluyah…. (TO BE CONTINUED TOMORROW).

PRAYER POINTS: Pray these prayers for today and tomorrow.

1. In your own words, pray about today's Word as led.
2. Thank the Lord again for His death on the cross.
3. Thank Him for TAKING YOUR PLACE!
4. I stand and declare that it is against the law of NATURAL, LEGAL or SPIRITUAL JUSTICE for a man or woman to be punished twice for one of fence! Therefore I stand to declare that since my MASTER AND LORD has been PUNISHED FOR ME, I cannot be punished again. Therefore I decree and command that the following yokes of the devil caused by the fall of the first ADAM: Loose me and go forever in Jesus name. I take my deliverance NOW!! (Mention your battles now and pray seriously until you have peace to stop).
5. Pray in Tongues till you are led to stop.

TOPIC: EXECUTED TWICE! DIED ONCE! – 2

BASIC SCRIPTURE: MATTHEW 27: 26 - 50

Refer to the Mississippi man who could not be executed on the first attempt – yesterday’s devotional. Remember Isaiah 53:4 again: “Surely He hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows! Note the two words “SURELY” and “HATH.” Not, “MAYBE” or “SHALL “That means IT IS ADONE DEAL! ITIS FINISHED! IT IS CONCLUDED in the International spiritual court of justice! He has taken your tears, pain, and WHATEVER will bring you SORROW! Always declare to the devil: *”You are a liar! Jesus Christ, my MASTER took my sorrows! I CANNOT CARRY THE YOKE HE HAS CARRIED!

He took my barrenness yoke! I shall be fruitful in my womb, in my body and in the work of my hands! He took my sickness; He took my marital wars, so that I can have marital direction! He took my delays because He suffered delay on that cross! He took my financial embarrassment! He was poor so that poverty will not be my name! He was despised so that I can enjoy uncommon divine FAVOUR! He was rejected so l can be selected! He was made the TAIL (slapped and pushed around by common servants in Pilate’s courtyard), so I CAN BECOME THE HEAD! He was MOCKED so that I can be MADE into HONOUR! He was like a plant from a dry ground, so that my new names can be BLOSSOM and FLOURISH!

Whatever I lay my hands to do is not permitted to be dry anymore! He carried my grief and demotion! He carried my premature death (He never saw old age. He died before He was 34)! Yes! He carried my stagnation! He suffered betrayal/disappointment at the edge of His breakthrough- death on the cross (Judas betrayed Him! Peter disappointed Him). Isa1ah 52: 14b says: “… His visage (appearance) was so marred (disfigured and ugly) more than any man… “He could win the award for the “UGLIEST MAN ON EARTH.” That happened so that I can be glorified and beautified! SHAME cannot be my last bus-stop again because the Lord has been punished even before l was born! Oh! Thank you LORD! You shall end well, because of Isaiah 53: 11. It says the LORD shall see me for whom He suffered and BE SATISFIED! That means no matter how 2020 has been, I AM WORK-IN-PROGRESS and THE LORD has not finished with me! The LORD shall see me and be proud of me I can never be an abandoned project! Thank you LORD! Thank you LORD! Thank you LORD!

TOPIC: KOBE BRYANT:
I SHALL NOT WEEP SUDDENLY!

BASIC SCRIPTURE:
LUKE 7: 11 - 16

For the world of sports and especially the basketball family, Tuesday January 26th, 2020 was not best day for family of Kobe Bryant, that day would be a day they would live to remember for a very long time for the wife of Kobe Bryant , Vanessa, and her first daughter, Natalia, that day will be very difficult to erase from their memories, Kobe Bryant, an American basketballer, at the young age of 41 was snatched away from this world by the cold hands of death when the Sikorsky S-76B helicopter he chartered to fly from Orange County, California to Thousand Oaks also in California, crashed in foggy weather into a Southern Californian hillside, near Calabasas. Bryant had been scheduled that day to coach a tournament game at Mamba Sports Academy. The man did not go down alone; eight other persons lost their lives in that crash. His beautiful daughter, Gianna, who was only 13 years of age, two other girls Alyssa Altobelli and Payton Chester, the pilot of the helicopter, Ara Zobayan, a baseball coach, and three other persons died when the helicopter went down suddenly in its attempt to avoid a cloud.

When the news of the crash filtered to town, it was difficult to believe; for those who were waiting eagerly to be coached by Bryant for that day’s game, it was a dashed hope. When the news got to his wife, it was to say the least, the most devastating bad news she had ever heard; a husband and a loving/promising daughter were gone, just like that. In her statement a few days afterwards, she said, “…There aren’t enough words to describe our pain right now. I take comfort in knowing that Kobe and Gigi (Gianna) both knew that they were so deeply loved…. They were our beautiful blessings taken from us.” Life is full of many unexpected events. The widow of Nain in today’s Word never expected that she would lose her only son so soon after the demise of her husband. The unexpected event swept her off her feet. She had no option left but to weep over her loss. As she shed sudden and unexpected tears, Jesus met her in that state and said to her, “Weep not.” As 2020 ends, the LORD is saying to a user of today’s devotional: “WEEP NOT!” I see restoration! Most circumstances of life come unannounced!

Many souls and governments who began 2020 did not plan a date with the CORONAVIRUS! Arise today and pray against SUDDEN and UNEXPECTED TEARS for the next 3 days! Declare 21 times today “SUDDEN and UNEXPECTED TEARS, STOP AND SCATTER; SCATTER! SCATTER! CATCH FIRE NOW in Jesus name!” May your joy know no bounds! Pray seriously now.

PRAYER POINTS: Take any song of worship as led.

1. In your own words, pray about today's word as led.
2. SUDDEN and UNEXPECTED TEARS, STOP AND SCATTER; SCATTER! SCATTER! CATCH FIRE NOW in Jesus name!
3. Oh God, by Your grace, I will not shed tears that I am not prepared for.
4. Father, let tears of agony, be far away from me and my family as 2020 ends and 2021 begins.

TOPIC: SUICIDE AFTER FAILURE: REMEMBER THE 3 “DS”

BASIC SCRIPTURES:
JOB 2: 1 - 10; 14: 1

Sometime ago, tragedy struck at the Police College in Lagos Nigeria. Some police officers took promotion exams to move on the next rank. Among those who took the exams was a young man who was to be promoted from the rank of sergeant to inspector. The young officer was said to have committed suicide when he learnt that he had failed the promotion exams. Preliminary investigations revealed that the officer had taken some drugs and died. His body was found in his car with the drugs he took littered around him. Homicide detectives, who were invited, did some investigations and ordered that this body should be taken to the morgue of the State Teaching Hospital. That was how the young officer ended his life. Ever before this happened and thereafter, the world has witnessed many bizarre actions taken by people in the face of some seeming disappointment or perceived difficulty/challenge of life. Just very recently, a young man who had taken the Nigerian university entry exams several times without success took a decision to end his life. Another young man, a university undergraduate committed suicide by EVENING PRAYERS BEFORE GOING TO BED drowning and left a note behind. The reason he did so is still unknown.

Another one took his life because he performed poorly in his academics. And yet another person set a whole house and family ablaze leading to the death of 7 people because of a relationship that went sour. The list is just inexhaustible. There are facts of life which no one can run away from. One of such facts is that life is full of ups and downs. This world is a place of challenges. This fact was stated by Papa Job in Job 14:1 – “Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.” Frank A. Clark said, “If you find a path that is without obstacles, it probably doesn’t lead anywhere.” When life’s “ups and downs” come, you have to take them as normal experiences that people go through to succeed. An anonymous person wrote this, “Failure defeats losers but inspires winners.” Someone else said, “In all areas from mental to financial to academics to spiritual and to any aspect of life you could think of, nothing great can ever be achieved without facing some challenge or risk.” As 2020 ends, always remember the “3 Ds” Dream, Desire and Determination! Yes it takes a dream to get started, desire to keep going and determination to finish! Hold on and hold out!

TOPIC : “LISTEN TO YOUR OWN MUSIC: REMEMBER THE 3 ’DS‘ ”

BASIC SCRIPTURE:
1 SAMUEL 30 : 1 - 8

It was Denis Waitley who penned: ’Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end.‘ In the face of challenges, the Holy Ghost wants you to remind yourself daily that there is always light at the end of the darkest tunnel. Never contemplate suicide, surrendering, quitting, crying/weeping, self-pity, etc.

Today“s scriptural reading points a lesson to us. In all of David“s losses and pain, he maintained his integrity IN THE LORD – HE ENCOURAGED HIMSELF IN THE LORD! No wonder he recovered all! No matter how 2020 or the past years of your life has been, YOU WILL RECOVER ALL because God always shows up when we get to the edge of the precipice. He will show up for you and your family/ministry.

Never give up on your EXPECTATIONS! The waiting may seem painful, but the regret of not going for it will be even more painful! Resist what is happening around you. Resist what others are saying or not saying about you! Resist the inner cry to allow depression or self- pity! And hear this: LIFE HAS MANY SOUNDS OF MUSIC! Some are sounds of MOCKERY! Some are sounds of COURAGE! Some are scattered sounds of DOUBTERS! Others are sounds of feeble SCORNERS buried in DISDAIN/CONTEMPT for you! But refuse to listen to them because nobody was there on the day that your great God created you! That was the day God gave you your drum!

Determine to create your own God-led music and please LISTEN TO YOUR DRUM BEAT and your DRUM BEAT ALONE – IT CREATES THE GREATEST MUSIC. Don“t allow the voice of MOCKERS AND JESTERS to kill your dance or steal your song because everyone cannot believe in you! As 2020 ends, always remember the ’3 Ds‘ – Dream, Desire and Determination! Yes! Listen to your inner music and sound! It takes a dream to get started, desire to keep going and determination to finish!

TOPIC: VICTORY IS NEAR! DON’T QUIT NOW!

BASIC SCRIPTURE:
1 KINGS 18: 41- 46.

In 2011, there was an uprising against the President of Syria Bashar Al Assad. The uprising was spearheaded by rebels and Jihadists. By early 2017, government forces held just 17% of the territory of the whole nation, the rest was occupied by forces that were against the government and the government has been fighting this bitter battle for years.

But in a series of successive attacks, the government has now succeeded in forcing the rebels out of many of their strongholds, putting Assad’s government in control of nearly two thirds of the country. The Syrian army had increased its attacks with the help of Russian air strikes, advisers from the Iranian ministry as well as help from the militiamen of Lebanon, Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan.

In late July 2018, President Bashar Al Assad told his troops that they were close to winning the country’s seven year-old civil war then, after the army inflicted a series of defeat rounds on the rebels. In his open letter to the military rank and file, Assad wrote; “Our date with victory is near. They (the rebels were ultimately to leave humiliated, roled back, their tails between their legs after you gave them a taste of bitter defeat.” Borrowing a leaf from the Syrian president and as 2020 ends, I bring these words to someone today, “Victory is near.

No matter how 2020 has been (oh, what a year indeed), don’t quit now because I hear the sound of the abundance of victory and celebration.

In today’s scripture, Israel had faced a bitter famine for three and a half years but when Elijah prayed, the heavens opened. Elijah told King Ahab not to worry anymore – And Elijah said unto Ahab, get thee up, eat and drink for there is sound of abundance of rain.” Oh, get up from that place of sorrow and being downcast, for I hear the sound of celebration again and again. For someone believing God for a husband or wife, the wedding bells are already ringing in the realm of the spirit; the letter of employment for someone’s job is already prepared.

I see fruits of the womb, new helper connections, career and business progress! I see an enemy apologizing to you very soon. Ah! Your date with victory is near and quitting is not an option. Always remember – one second after midnight is a NEW DAWN! Hold on and hold out! SHARE TODAY’s WORD WITHA FRIEND or FAMILY! Get them an ODM COPY! TODAY IS THE OCTOBER WORLD ANOINTING ONLINE SERVICE.

2. Father, as 2020 ends, send helpers that will push me to my victory.

Our Daily Manna For October 28, 2020

TOPIC: THINK COMMUNITY! DISCOVER YOUR NAOMI! – 1

BASIC SCRIPTURE:
RUTH 1: 1 - 11

Welcome to today’s devotional encounter with the God of times and seasons! Ruth I: 11 says: “And Naomi said,Turn again, my daughters: why will ye go with me? Are there yet any more sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?” Note the words: “TURN AGAIN.” She was putting the interest of the two women first! The Lord is speaking to you today about the secret of community thinking pulting others first! lt is by putting ofhers first that you can discover your name – NAOMI – SWEETNESS! When you put others lirsl, the Naomi in you will manifest! Note also the words:”YOUR WAY in Vs. 12: Turm again, my daughters, go your way; for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say, I have hope, it should have a husband also tonight, and should also bear sons… Oh, I love the words; YOUR WAY! YOUR WAY! YOUR WAY! Not “MY WAY!” “MY WAY! “MY WAY She also used the words “TOO OLD! You would have expected that because she was very old, she would have been selfish to allow the two young ladies to follow her! She could have turned these two young women into “NURSES” by allowing them to follow her! The normal selfish person would have done this to these women by telling them to follow her with the hope ol linding a husband. So as you put the interest of others first, the NAOMI in you will manifest! Job’s captivity was tumed when he prayed for his friends.

THINK COMMUNITY! Not just YOUR WAY! THINK FAMILY! Not just YOUR WAY! THINK COMMUNITY! Not just YOUR WAY! Sometimes, let others have THEIR WAY and not YOUR WAY! Let your plans have the interest of others at heart! Start businesses thatcan bless COMMUNITIES and not just yourself! Many tamilies/nations are at war today, because everyone is thinking MY WAY and not YOUR WAY! To be continued tomorrow. thank for reading .

Our Daily Manna For October 27, 2020

TOPIC: THE LORD IS ALSO A “MONITORING SPIRIT”

BASIC SCRIPTURES:
2 CHRONICLES 16: 9; Psalm 121:1 - 8

Today’s first scripture Vs. 9 Says: For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew Himself strong on behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward Him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.” The Holy Ghost wants you to know that your FATHER GOD iS also a “MONITORING SPIRIT.” Wow! Satan walks TO and FRO the earth, in an attempt to COPY your God! Your God JEHOVAH does not sleep nor slumber! His eyes are always open to PROTECT AND PRESERVE YOU! His EYES run To and FROM the earth to MANIFEST HIMSELF to enemies who MESS around with you and go Scot free! He will teach them that: “IT IS NOT VAIN TO SERVE THE LORD.” He will use your life to show that HE IS A REWARDER of them who DILIGENTLY SEEK/SERVE HIM.

That is why Psalm 121:3 says: “He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: He that keepeth thee wilt not slumber.” HE DOES NOT SLEEP because HE IS MONITORING your life and ministry for good! He does not sleep nor slumber because HE IS JEALOUS OVER YOU! Have you forgotten that you are so important to God that He sent HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON to suffer and die for you? Jesus Christ would have still died on that scary cross even if you were the only soul on planet earth! Oh, thank you my GREAT “MONITORING SPIRIT.” No wonder not even a strand of your hair would fall without His knowledge! See Psalm 121:6 “The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.” HE DOES NOT SLEEP because HE IS MONITORING your life, family and ministry from forces that use the sun and the moon to curse generations! HE DOES NOT SLEEP BECAUSE HE MONITORS EVERY MONITORING DEMONIC SPIRIT so that Psalm 121:7 can come to pass in your life: “The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: He shall preserve thy soul.” Amen and amen. Pray seriously now!

PRAYER POINTS: Take any song of adoration as led.

1. In your own words, pray about today’s word as led.
2. Worship again, the HIGHEST MONITORING FATHER IN THE UNIVERSE! Thank you,
3. Lord that your eyes do not blink because of my life, family and ministry. Pray about today as led now.

TOPIC : THINK COMMUNITY! DISCOVER YOUR HARVEST 2.

BASIC SCRIPTURE:
RUTH 1:12 - 22

Vs 20-21 says: “And she said unto them, Call me not Naomi, call me Mara: for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me.” Note: VERY BITTERLY! Not just bitter but VERY BITTER! That was enough to push her into a SELFISH and INCONSIDERATE PERSON! She was an unhappy and bitter woman. NO matter how 2020 has been, please refuse to give up on your virtues of KINDNESS and COMMUNITY thinking! Even if you were betrayed by a loved one, please still LOVE AGAIN! Even if you were hurt by others, please still think of others! Don’t let the events you have been through to stop the goodness in you! People have lied against me and I decided to leave my country for good Because I thought it was all done out of envy! There was a season I TRUSTED NOBODY because those you trusted, either stole or ganged up with extortioners/blackmailers to hurt my name, My son was once kidnapped! I was once sued to court by a lady I never knew from Adam. She said she broke her teeth at one of the annual WORLD ANOINTING NIGHTS which attracts hundreds of thousands. She demanded for 25 million naira about 63,000 dollars) to enable her fix her broken teeth. How was I Supposed to know what happened to about 500, 000 people who came for that programme? How am I even sure she was there? Oh God! Later, I heard from the grapevine that she was sent by some envious pastors and gangsters. I was shocked! So I was very bitter and decided to relocate from my country! But despite everything, the LORD told me never to be bitter because it would block my harvest season! Ah! See Vs. 22-“So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter in law with her, which returned out of the country of Moab: and they came to Bethlehem in the beginning of barley harvest.”

THEY RETURNED IN THE HARVEST SEASON! When you refuse to be SELFISH, REVENGEFUL or BITTER, God announces your HARVEST! Just before your HARVEST, there will be HASSLES! But the secret of moving into your harvest (reward) season is by putting others first. Let God fight your battles! They returned to Bethlehem (the house of bread) in the beginning of the barley harvest because Ruth was thinking of NAOMI and NAOMI was thinking of Ruth! Ruth later located her life partner because SHE PUT NAOMI FIRST- COMMUNITY THINKING! She later became the great grandmother of the Messiah through the OBED-DAVID-JESUS LINEAGE! community thinking provokes your celebration/harvest season! Resist bitterness or depression! This world will celebrate you soon! Hold on and hold out!

PRAYER POINTS: Take any song of praise as led.

1. In your own words, pray about today’s word as led.
2. No matter how this year has been, I choose to be better, not to be bitter.
3. Lord, accelerate my HARVEST SEASON!
4. Pray for all members of ODM AIR BRIGADE Or PRINTING partners and anyone that has sowed any seed into this Vision, LOOOSE UNSTOPPABLE HARVEST for them!
5. Pray about today! Cancel the loss (death) of a child.

TOPIC : GOD HAS OVER 7 BILLION REPLACEMENTS OF YOU! STAY HUMBLE!

BASIC SCRIPTURES:
1 KINGS 19: 9 - 18;
JAMES 4: 7

Ahithophel was nearly compared to God when he gave counsel. Ahithophel was from the land of GILEAD where there was balm for healing. But the balm of Gilead COULD NOT HEAL HIM. Yes! He felt that because he was so wise, the country could not do without him. Absalom thought that because he was the most handsome, biological son of David and the logical heir to the throne, HE was indispensable! Don’t forget that they both committed suicide” and LIFE CONTINUED WITHOUT THEM! One day, Elijah said to God that he was the only person singing or working in the kingdom for God or church (you know where you fall into) and God said to him (Paraphrased): “SHUT UP! Don’t let pride rob you of your upcoming chariots of fire. I have reserved 7000 people who can do the job better than you after your departure. That fact that I chose you does not mean that you are indispensable!” Wow! Indeed, airs of importance are the credentials of impotence!
Pray now: 1. “O Lord, don’t let me ever think that without me, the church where I and my family worship now will come to a standstill.

2. I surrender all to You and die of self.

3. Take me back to the cross and remold me by fire.

4. Shake away and take away every smell of PRIDE from me in Jesus’ name.

I remember Soren Kierkegaard: “The proud person always wants to do the right thing, the great thing. But because he wants to do it in his own strength, he is fighting not with man, but with God.” Yea! Very true! Listen: If you leave that department in your church or even the church, you will be the one to suffer it (except the LORD led you to). Don’t forget that when Satan, the highest Archangel left heaven, he wasn’t missed till today. God’s work is bigger than you billion times. Yes, He can replace you with any of the over 7 billion souls on earth today! Stop feeling proud. Let your motives be right in all you do! You are not too important. God by His grace decided to use you or keep you alive. So don’t let pride cause you to move from the palace to the forest like His Excellency, King Nebuchadnezzar. He became His Excellency to animals and wild beasts! Don’t be the next Nebuchadnezzar, Absalom or Ahithophel.

ODM PRAYER POINTS: Take your best worship song as led.

1. In your own words, pray over today’s word as led now.
2. Pray the prayers above seriously again.
3. I know that God has over 7 billion replacements for me so I determine NEVER to be proud in all I do. I shall not be the next Absalom, Ahithophel, Judas, or Nebuchadnezzar.
4. Pray for all ODM AIR BRIGADE (TV Partners) or PRINTING partners and anyone that has sowed any seed into this Vision. LOOSE UNSTOPPABLE HARVEST for them!
5. Pray about today and pray about the issue(s) affecting your peace.
6. Pray in Tongues as led.

TOPIC : THE DRAMA OF THE SILVERSMITH!

BASIC SCRIPTURES: MALACHI 3: 1 - 6;
PSALM 121: 4



A group of women were in a Bible Study on the book of Malachi. As they were studying chapter three, they came across verse three, which says: “He will sit as a refiner and Came of silver.” This verse puzzled the women and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God. One of the women offered to find out about the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study. That week, this woman called up a Silversmitn and made an appointment to watch him at work. She didn’t mention anything about the reason for her interest beyond her curiosity about the process of refining silver. As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece o silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest so as to burn away all the impurities. The woman thought about God holding us in such a hot spot; then she thought again about the verse, that “He Sits as a purifiner and purifier of silver.” She asked the silversmith if it was true that he had to sit there in front of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined. The man answered saying, he not only had to sit there holding the silver, but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire time it was in the fire. If the silver was left a moment too long in the flames, it would be destroyed. The woman was silent for a moment. Then she asked the silversmith, “How do you know when the silver is fully refined?” He smiled at her and answered, “oh, that’s easy- when I see my image in it.” If today you are feeling the heat of the fire, remember that God has His eye on you and will keep watching you until He sees His image in you.

Note this: God is BUILDING YOU even when it seems He is BREAKING YOU! The STRUGGLES make you stronger! The LORD is bigger than the giants you face! Remember that God did not remove the RED SEA; He OPENED IT. God will always MAKE A WAY out of every battle you face. He is the “SILVERSMITH” that sits to watch you WALKTHROUGH and not RUN THROUGH in fear! You will never end up in shame! Hold on and hold out to HIM!

PRAYER POINTS: Take Song 2 My faith looks up...

1. In your own words. pray over today’s word as led now.
2.Thank you Lord, that YOU SIT down to watch over me even in the fire! That is why you are called the Fourth man in the furnace and the ever-present HELP in trouble!
3. I decree that I will NEVER go down because my God does not sleep nor slumber.
4. Jehovah God, turn my losses to my glory story. Move me from the VICTIM ARENA to my Victory lane in Jesus’ name( Pray it seriously for 2 days).
5. Pray for the remaining weeks of 2020.

TOPIC: GREED IS NOT A NEED!

BASIC SCRIPTURE: PHILIPPIANS 4: 10 -19

Welcome to this new month! It is your month of “OVERTAKING.” It is a November you shall remember for life, once you deal with GREED! Today’s scripture Vs. 19 (NIV) says: “My God will meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus.” Note; “… MEET ALL YOUR NEEDS…” One of our biggest worries tends to be about our ability to provide for our needs. Today’s scripture is a confirmation that even in this COVID-19 SEASON AND WORLD CHAOS, you and all yours will never suffer! God has promised to meet all your NEEDS! But note this: God doesn’t promise an automatic private jet, the best mansion in town, a Rolls Royce, the latest safari suit, etc. GOD CAN GIVE YOU ALL THESE THINGS IF YOUR MOTIVES ARE RIGHT!

Some people want these things JUST TO SHOW OFF IN PRIDE or in unhealthy competition, rivalry. A Need is What God In His All-knowing Wisdom, Know is Right For You At The Right Time! A “GREED” is what He knows you can do without and what may become a disadvantage to your tomorrow! Most of us don’t really get this, so we become angry when delay shows up. Psalm 84: 11 says: “For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD will give grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly” (KJV)

Note these three words: NO GOOD THING! When kids are growing up, parents want to give them good things. But no good parent will release something that will be a disadvantage to them in their spiritual, physical, or emotional growth. If we as HUMANS can do that, how much more does a Heavenly Father who is PERFECT want to do likewise? Oh, I love Romans 8:32: “He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?” If God could give you JESUS CHRIST by sending Him to the Earth to die for you in order to deal with the NEEDS of your SOUL, don’t you think He cares about that/those issue(s) you’re dealing with! Absolutely yes! In some cases, even before you pray, He has answered (Isaiah 65:24) Yes! He cares! He cares! He cares! And He will never SPARE ANYTHING GOOD FROM YOU! Delay is not denial and your end will never be DISGRACE! Shout 21 halleluiahs of victory and pray seriously now.
This is your month!

TOPIC: WHEN HE TAKES HIS TIME

BASIC SCRIPTURES: MARK 8 : 22 - 26;
ISAIAH 28 : 16

Remember that in
2 Kings 4:35, the dead child sneezed seven times, before opening his eyes! As a Pharmacist, I know that these are the first acts of restored respiration, and they are the successive steps of signs of restoration back to life. God is almighty and miracles were, for the most part performed instantaneously; He can do ALL THINGS but sometimes also, His miracles and manifestations are done in phases! Just like in the case of 1Kings 18:44-45 where ELIJAH had to pray and wait for the 7th time before the MIRACLE RAIN CAME! Sometimes, God’s miracles are done progressively towards completion. That was also the story of the blind man in today’s first scripture. The man in today’s first scripture said: “I see men as trees, walking.” Can you imagine that? THE HEALING WAS NOT INSTANT even though it was the ALMIGHTY JESUS WHO PRAYED FOR HIM! Then Vs. 25 says: “After that, He put His hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.” So I repeat as I am led for emphasis: The healing was not instant and fast even though Jesus Christ had the FULLNESS OF THE GODHEAD DWELLING IN HIM BODILY! He is the unchanging Changer and the FINGER that never FAILS! Yet, He did not heal the man AT ONCE! The man first saw men as trees, before seeing men clearly! No matter how 2020 has been always remember that God is not a man that He should lie! God’s delays are for a higher purpose that your eyes may not see! Note that before the miracle was completed, He made the man to LOOK UP (see the underlined above)! Wow! His PROCESSES ARE FOR YOUR FINAL PROMISED LAND STORY! The Lord could have healed him with a word, but He wished to save the soul as well as the body! He made Him to LOOK UP instead of looking at men! So, when He takes His time, it’s because He has His GREATER PLAN! Hold on and hold out!

PRAYER POINTS: Take Song 2: My faith looks up...

1. In your own words, pray about today’s word as led .
2. Sometimes, God’s miracles are done progressively towards completion. I refuse to live in discouragement or secret anger against God.
3. Lord, show up early for the sake of Your glory concerning the following issues of my destiny (mention them).
4. When the LORD takes His time. it’s because He has His GREATER PLAN! Lord, help me to wait for that PLAN.
5. I scatter every demonic plan to hurry me out of the PLAN of God for my destiny in Jesus name. I shall not make haste! I will wait on the LORD and know I shall not end up in shame in Jesus name.

TOPIC: A BUTTERFLY’S STRUGGLE: DON’T STOP THE STRUGGLE!

BASIC SCRIPTURE: HEBREWS 2: 10 - 18

One day, a man found a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, He sat there and watched the butterfly struggle to come out through the tiny opening. After a while, he decided to help the butterfly when he saw it was not moving. Using a pair of scissors, the man snipped off the cocoon and opened it fully. The butterfly emerged easily but had a swollen body and undeveloped wings. The man waited patiently to see the wings grow and tried to nurse the butterfly but in vain. The butterfly spent the rest of her short life struggling to fly and crawling around. The man tried to do a good deed without realizing that some struggles are important in life. Nature (God) has designed the butterfly’s body to struggle before it can fly. Did you get that? That’s a simple lesson from Biology but an award-winning lesson from life! The struggles and hardships in life shape one personality. They make us courageous and independent. Today’s scripture in Vs. 10(KJV) says: “For it became Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the capt of their salvation perfect through sufferings.” Then Vs. 11 says: “For both He that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause He is not ashamed to call them brethren.” So Jesus the LORD was made PERFECT IN THE FLESH through suffering! He was not made PERFECT through divine command.

He had to PASS THROUGH THE STRUGGLE of pain and temptations! And because He is called OUR ELDER BROTHER (Vs. 11), the road He passed through is the same road you will pass through unto PERFECTION Ah! There is a prophetic word for 237 parents today: You cannot act as God to your children! You do not wish to see them go through pain! But I the LORD, own them as my HERITAGE and have a bigger plan for them than your plan! Allow them to pass through their own growth and their sufferings! Therein shall they grow; for in your compassion you may compress them and snuff goodness out of them Allow them to grow their growth according to my destiny plan; you cannot grow for them!” Oh THANK YOU LORD! As 2020 ends, determine that you will NEVER quit trusting God; for it is in your struggles that your scaffolds to destiny elevation are born! Learn from your “ELDER BROTHER”- the King of Kings!
