God is our refuge & strength, an ever present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way & the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar & foam & the mountains quake with their surging.  (Psalm 46:1-3). God is our refuge & strength. He gives us maximum protection & security. He keeps us where satan cannot touch us. Someone may say: Why all this trouble? The answer is two fold. Firstly, it's you who is living in sin & paving way for the devil to influence you. God cannot intervene in your case because He respects your personal will. He created us as free moral beings. A Christian can have a demon if he wants. God will not stop you. He doesn't force anyone to do His will but we grieve the Holy Spirit when we sin wilfully. We render as useless the blood of Jesus. We nail Jesus Christ on the cross again. We insult the Spirit of grace. This is what we will be doing spiritually when we choose to live in sin. Note: There is a difference between making a genuine mistake & living in sin. Making plans to sin, testing them to see whether they will succeed & proceed to sin wilfully, with full knowledge that you are sinning. There is no forgiveness of sins anymore for people doing this after receiving the knowledge of truth. (Hebrews 10:26). Secondly: Troubles come not because you have done something wrong, but that satan has asked God to sift you like wheat & God in turn gives him the permission & conditions. God will be boasting to the devil about you like He did with Job. He uses these attacks to prepare you for the challenges ahead, mold your CHARACTER, refine you in the furnace, etc. Do not fail God. By way of testimony: God allowed Satan to test me for 30 years. He used every trick in the book over this peiod & failed to make me alter my confession of Christ. I have overcome satan & God has given me a new season. A season of peace & financial prosperity. Praise the Lord. God is our refuge & strength, an ever present help in trouble. When faced with adversity, call to God, submit yourself to His Word & you will WIN no matter what. God is in control. He will always come through for you if you are dependant on Him. He knows no failure. He knows no defeat. Fear not. Doubt not. Worry not. Do not have pressure. Cooperate with the Holy Spirit & you will experience His help, right on time. Prayer: Father, you are never late or early but that you come through for us right on time. Give us the grace to wait patiently, expectantly, calmly, with faith & obedience until our victory, success & breakthrough comes. For those who are undergoing trials & tests, despatch your angels right now. Let them minister to their needs. I pray for them. Grant them victory, success & breakthrough. Thank you Jesus for hearing & answering my prayer. In Jesus mighty name we pray, believe & give you thanks, Amen. Good morning Holy Spirit. Arise & shine. Immanuel: God with us.

 Business God's Way: During this annual shutdown for most businesses,  i urge you to rest, have quality time with the family & connect with God. Go for a holiday with the family if you can afford. After that, spend some quality time with God in a quiet place for an hour or so & seek His guidance. Carry your note pad & write the points down. Read your Bible, do meditation & pray. Present your plans to the Lord for the coming year & let Him approve them in His own time & in His own way. Be calm, quiet & composed, in order to hear that small still voice, gentle whisper from God. Result: The voice of God will give you guidance & direction for the coming year 2023. If things have not been okay with you in business, the Lord will enable you to have peace & joy in the midst of such storms. He will give you a way out. Do not panic no matter what comes your way. Remain focused on the perfomance & growth of your business. Do not murmur or complain...

 Truly I say to you, unless you change & become like little children, you will never enter the Kingdom of God. (Mathew 18:3).  The verse above is talking about a changed life. Christianity is about a changed life. What is Christianity? It is a relationship with God through His holy Son, Jesus Christ. Christianity is not a religion, though we have created Christian religion in the church today. Christianity is not an organization, it is an organism, a living thing. Our God is alive. Jesus is alive. God raised Him from the dead. He is seated with the Father on the throne of God's grace. The bones of all the founding fathers of religion are still in their graves, but the tomb of Jesus Christ is empty. The founding fathers of religion died & never rose up. Religion, because it is a mixture of God's laws & man made rules, does not make anyone righteous. It makes the people RELIGIOUS. Only Jesus Christ makes us righteous.How do we become righteous? We need to accept Jesu...

 They have greatly oppressed me from my youth - let Israel say - they have greatly oppressed me from my youth but they have not gained victory over me. (Psalm 129:1-2). No weapons formed against me shall prosper. The devil has been fighting me from my youth. He for years struck me with terrible & terminal sicknesses, but God healed me. I missed death on three occasions, in 1986, 1995 & 1997 but God delivered me from the spirit of death. God did not end there, He has given me divine health. Over the years I faced extreme hardships & lack. But God has shown His great mercy & grace to us. There is not even a day that we slept without having food. The Lord was faithful to provide to us.The devil fought me for decades of years. He has tried every trick in his book in a bid to stop this ministry that you see today. But God was faithful to me. He used the situation as the REFINERS FIRE - to refine me, change me & to prepare me for this God moment. Look at the result: G...
