The Righteous

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: WHO ARE THE BLESSED (PT4)

Matthew 5:6 KJV
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

Justice and righteousness in the New Covenant indicate the fulfillment of God's will in your heart and soul. It is not mere observance of the law (Matthew 5:20), but rather an expression of brotherly love (I John 3:10). A continuous desire for justice and moral perfection will lead one to a fulfillment of that desire - a transition and conversion to holiness. This is true for all the virtues - if you hunger and thirst for righteousness, you will head towards the goal you have in mind.

This who thirst for righteousness are those who will not do evil, who will seek good of others, who speak positive, who always want to be a solution to the world,
Those who delight in the law of God, this who meditate in God's word and practice it.
Jesus says, blessed are those Kind of people,

This morning, as you read this, ask yourself are you thirsty for righteousness? If your answer is yes. The Lord has reveal what will happen to you.
Firstly you are blessed
Secondly you will he filled.

LET US PRAY
MAY THE LORD BLESS YOU AND FILL YOU ACCORDING TO HIS WORDS IN JESUS NAME.

The Meek

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: WHO ARE THE BLESSED (PT3)

Matthew 5:5 KJV
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

The Beatitudes build one upon another.
A humble person becomes meek, or becomes gentle and kind, and exhibits a docility of spirit, even in the face of adversity and hardship. A person that is meek is one that exhibits self-control.

It is always good to be meek in the face of the Lord, and not resist but be obedient to him. Obedience and submission to the will of God are certainly not in vogue these days, but they will bring one peace in this world if we can so it.

Jesus said, blessed are the meek, ask yourself are you meek in the heart, or hot? Let the spirit of the Lord rule your heart and posses you with meek spirit over all your daily activities and you will see yourself on the top of the world. Jesus says for they shall inherit the earth

LET US PRAY
DEAR LORD JESUS CHRIST, PUT ON US THE GARMENT OF YOUR MEEKNESS AND GIVE US YOUR HUMBLE SPIRIT IN JESUS NAME. AMEN

WHO ARE THE BLESSED (Pt2)

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: WHO ARE THE BLESSED (Pt2)

Matthew 5:4 KJV
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

If we are humble and appreciate that all of our gifts and blessings come from God, we grow in love and gratitude for Jesus Christ our Savior. But this can only produce mourning and regret over our own sins and the sins of this world, for we have hurt the one who has been so good to us. One also mourns for the suffering of others.

St. Gregory describes another reason to mourn: the more one ascends in meditation of Divine Truth, Beauty, and Goodness, and then realize the poverty of human nature, man can only be left in sorrow. When one contemplates that we were made in the image and likeness of God and lived in Paradise, the Garden of Eden, and compare that to our present state after the Fall, one can only mourn our present condition. But the sentence continues that they shall be comforted, by the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, and hopefully one day in the Kingdom of Heaven.

Mourning in this context is called a blessing, because mourning our fallen nature creates in us a desire to improve ourselves and to do what is right!

LET US PRAY
DEAR LOVING FATHER,
RESTORE TO US ALL OUR LOST GLORY AND HELP US TO FOCUS ON YOU FOR A BETTER LIFE IN JESUS NAME

WHO ARE THE BLESSED? (pt1)

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: WHO ARE THE BLESSED? (pt1)

Matthew 5:3 KJV
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

this week morning meal will be Base on the teaching of Jesus Christ call, BEATITUDES

WHO ARE THE POOR IN SPIRIT
"Poor in spirit" means to be humble. Humility is the realization that all your gifts and blessings come from the grace of God. To have poverty of spirit means to be completely empty and open to the Word of God. When we are an empty cup and devoid of pride, we are humble. Humility brings an openness and an inner peace, allowing one to do the will of God. He who humbles himself is able to accept our frail nature, to repent, and to allow the grace of God to lead us to Conversion.

It is pride, the opposite of humility, that brings misery. For pride brings anger and the seeking of revenge, especially when one is offended. If every man were humble and poor in spirit, there would be no war!

LET US PRAY
FATHER IN JESUS NAME, ENDOW US WITH YOUR HUMBLE SPIRIT IN JESUS NAME

JESUS HAS RISEN.

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL
TOPIC: JESUS HAS RISEN.

This morning I will base my message on the word of God,
1 Corinthians 15:13-19

13 If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.
14 And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith.
15 More than that, we are then found to be false witnesses about God, for we have testified about God that he raised Christ from the dead. But he did not raise him if in fact the dead are not raised.
16 For if the dead are not raised, then Christ has not been raised either.
17 And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.
18 Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ are lost.
19 If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitied more than all men. (NIV)

If Jesus rose from the dead, then Christianity is true and every other religion is false.
That same supernatural God wants to bring resurrection into your life!
The events of Easter cannot be reduced to a creed or philosophy. We are not asked to believe the doctrine of the resurrection alone. We are asked to meet this person raised from the dead. In faith, we move from belief in a doctrine to the knowledge of a person. Ultimate truth is a person. We met him. He is alive."

If you believe, let us pray
DEAR LORD JESUS CHRIST, LET THE POWER OF YOUR RESURRECTION RAISE EVERY GOOD THINGS THAT HAS DEAD IN US IN JESUS NAME. AMEN.

Father forgive them

IOI EASTER SPECIAL MEAL.

My wife left me for another man a few years ago. It hurt like crazy. But after a while she got tired of him, so she decided to come back to me. I thought it was the right thing to do - so I let her come back.
Everything seemed fine for a few months but then she left me again for the same man.
She stayed with him for a while but then she came back a second time and I thought everything was going to be fine.

But then she left me again after a few months ago. Every time she leaves it hurts me deeply - like I'm being stabbed in the chest with a butcher knife. She’s been with him for a while now.
But she just called me up this morning and she said, 'I want to come back.'.... Hummm, I’m not sure I want her back. I don't want to go through that again. I can forgive somebody once or even twice but I’m not sure I can forgive her a third time.”

How do you forgive in a situation like that?

How do you forgive?

there they crucified him. We cannot begin to imagine the agony that Jesus endured while upon the cross. But we all know the story - don't we? The physical suffering would have been horrifying. By the time he got to the cross he had been beaten within an inch of his life. His back had been torn to shreds by the whip. His face was disfigured and swollen where they had ripped out the beard by the roots. On his head a crown of thorns stuck under the skin. He was a shell of a man.

.... there they crucified Him.......

They laid the cross out on the ground and they laid the body of Jesus on it. He moved - he moaned - he didn’t do much. They pierced his hands and his feet by driving spikes through them all. New wounds - new blood - new pain.

What happened that day was horrendous. What happened that day was horrible. What happened that day was hideous. Yet Jesus said:

"Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing." Luke 23:34a

Friends - that leads me back to the original question: How do you forgive in a situation like that? Here is what Jesus does. He prays.
His prayer is short. His prayer is to the point:

"Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing."

Friends my first story about the wife and her husband seems difficult for you and me as husband to forgive, but the fact remains that Jesus has always been taking you and me back when we sin against him and left for other things,

How many times have you been gone from faith and wonder away, today's Jesus is pleading to the father on your behalf to forgive you. You can still come back to him and hurt him no more, father has forgiven you, Jesus has take your plea, please accept him today, tomorrow maybe too late. God bless you,

Happy Good Friday.

HOW DO WE RECEIVE GOD’S GIFT OF SALVATION ?

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: HOW DO WE RECEIVE GOD’S GIFT OF SALVATION ?

Matthew 11:28 KJV
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Simply by asking for it. Do you know in your heart that you want Christ in your life? You may have him today. This is the wonder of the gospel. Do not say, “I’ll do my best and come to Christ later.” That is the language of hell. You cannot be saved as long as you hold to your notions of goodness.
Run to the cross!
If you want to be saved, remember these four words:
Run to the cross!
Run to the cross and lay hold of Jesus Christ who loved you and died for you. God is fully satisfied with the work of his Son. Remember that “the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.” Do you believe that? If you have any stirring in your heart, any sense of your need, any desire to be saved by grace, that desire has been placed in your heart by God. Now the rest is up to you.
Run to the cross where Jesus waits to meet you.

LET US PRAY
DEAR LORD JESUS, SAVE OUR SOUL FROM HELL AND GIVE US YOUR FREE GIFT OF SALVATION IN JESUS NAME.

HE TOOK OUR PLACE

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: HE TOOK OUR PLACE

Isaiah 53:4-6

“All we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all” (v. 6).

Someone has said that Isaiah 53:6 is the “John 3:16 of the Old Testament” because this verse makes the way of salvation so clear that we cannot miss it.
Was Jesus a failure? No!
Note that “all” is the first and the last word of verse 6.
We have all sinned.
We have all gone astray.
We have all missed the mark.
We have all turned to our own way.
We’re all in the same boat, and the boat is going down.
If God doesn’t do something, we’re all going to die.
At this point we encounter the great, glorious news of the gospel.

God has done something!
He could have looked at the mess we made and said, “They deserve it. They messed up. Now let them face the consequences.” If God had said that, he would be 100% justified. God was under no obligation to rescue us when we wandered astray.

God would not leave us alone!
We said, “Leave me alone!”
But God said, “I can’t do that.”
“And the Lord has laid on him.” That’s Jesus! That’s the great Servant of the Lord who came from heaven on a divine rescue mission.
God laid our sins on Jesus.
That’s the doctrine of substitution.
That’s the heart of gospel.
He took my place when he died.
God laid my sins on him.

Let’s suppose that all your sins have been written in one massive book. That book is heavy because it records every rotten thing you’ve ever said, every unkind word you’ve ever spoken, every mean thought, every lustful fantasy, every evil imagination, and all your bad attitudes from the day of your birth till the day of your death. Picture yourself trying to hold that massive book in your hands.

Now picture Jesus standing next to you. He is holy, perfect, pure and good. He has no book in his hands because he never sinned. You want to be rid of the book but you can’t seem to find a place to put it down. What will you do? Now picture Christ on the Cross, with the weight of millions of books upon his bleeding back. He bears that crushing weight as long as he can, then he dies.
Look closely and you will see that each book is the personal record of someone who lived on the earth. If you look closely, you can see your book too. He took your sins–the record of all your evil and all your failings and all your shortcomings–he took it all upon himself when he died on the Cross. Truly, the Lord laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Would you like to go to heaven?
You can.
Jesus did not go unwillingly to the cross
Isaiah 53 contains the good news we all need. He was bruised–for us. He was wounded–for us. He was beaten, betrayed, mocked, scourged, crowned with thorns, crucified–all for us. Our sins drove Jesus to the cross. But he did not go unwillingly. If our sins drove him there, it was his love for us that kept him there.

LET US PRAY
FATHER IN JESUS NAME, EVERYTHING THAT IS TAKING THE PLACE OF GOD IN OUR LIVES IS HEREBY CAST OUT IN JESUS NAME.

HE TOOK OUR PUNISHMENT

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: HE TOOK OUR PUNISHMENT

Isaiah 53:4-6

“But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed” (v. 5).

“He was pierced” – as with a spear.
“He was crushed” – pulverized, broken, ground to pieces.
“Upon him was the chastisement”— beaten with a whip.
“By his wounds” – His body cut, bruised, his skin flayed.

No other god has wounds
It is not always understood that our Lord Jesus died in terrible pain. If you run the clock back from 3 o’clock in the afternoon—the moment of his death—to about 1 o’clock in the morning and review what had happened to Jesus as he moves through those hours—what you discover is that our Lord has just been through 14 hours of torture.
Arrested in the middle of the night.
Slapped.
Pushed around.
Mocked.
Slapped again.
Crowned with thorns that went into his scalp.
Scourged with a large strap studded with bits of bone and stone and metal.
His beard ripped out.
Beaten again and again.
Forced to carry his own cross.
Nails driven through his hands and feet.
Crucified.

At this point a strange question comes to mind. Was Jesus a failure?
You could make a good case that the answer is yes. Just look at his life. He was born into an unimportant family in an unimportant village. He was ignored, he was taken for granted, he was laughed at. When he speaks, the powers that be want nothing to do with him. He faces ridicule, opposition, and misunderstanding all his life. In the end he is crucified like a criminal. His sufferings in those last few hours are unspeakable. When he dies he appears to be yet another forgotten footnote in history. Working with the facts on one level, you could make the case that our Lord was a failure.

But his death is not the end of the story.
Jesus did not fail in what he came to do.
He perfectly fulfilled the Father’s will.
His death is not the end of the story
Look what we have in return:

We have peace with God. The word means wholeness, health, the absence of war, and safety. In a messed-up world filled with broken people and broken promises, through Christ we have peace that passes all human understanding.
We are healed.
We are healed from our guilt, healed from our hatred, healed from our doubt, and healed from our shame. Through Christ broken people are put back together again.
Was Jesus a failure? No!

He took our sin, bore our pain, and through his death on the cross, he healed us from the inside out so that we now live in peace. Hallelujah

LET US PRAY
FATHER IN JESUS NAME, STOP EVERY PUNISHMENT THE DEVIL INFLICT ON US BY THE MERCY OF YOUR DEATH AND RESURRECTION IN JESUS NAME.

He took Our Pains

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: HE TOOK OUR PAIN

Isaiah 53:4-6

“Surely he has borne our griefs
and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
smitten by God, and afflicted” (v. 4).

When Isaiah speaks of what Christ has done for us, he does not start with our sin and our guilt. That comes later. He begins instead with our infirmities. The text says that Christ has “borne” our griefs. It’s a Hebrew word that means to lift up and carry away a heavy load.

It was used in Leviticus 16 for the scapegoat who carried away the sins of the nation. That’s the idea here. Jesus came to lift the heavy burden of sadness brought about by our sin and the pain of living in a sinful world. Perhaps you know the famous gospel song that starts this way:

Christ has borne our griefs
What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear.
We have many griefs because we live in a fallen world.
We have many sorrows because we ourselves are fallen people.
We need someone who can bear our grief when the burden is too heavy for us.

Colin Smith (Restore Faith) explains it this way:
He took up our infirmities and carried our sorrow. That must include the division in your family, the loss of your job, the death of your husband, and the pain of your past.
In Christ we do not have some far-off God, but in him we find a God who drew near to us, who came to us, who entered our world and became one of us, that he might carry our sorrows for us.
Your pain will not have the last word
Your pain will not have the last word.
Your sorrows will not last forever.
Jesus has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows.

LET US PRAY
FATHER IN JESUS NAME. MAY THE WE BE TOTALLY FREE FROM EVERY PAINS OF SINS IN JESUS NAME. AMEN

Remain Rapturable

Please read this instructive and insightful piece:

A man before leaving for work, left a letter on the dining table for his wife. Chores around the house kept the woman from seeing the letter until about 12 noon. When she finally chanced on the letter she was so excited to see that her husband had taken time to write her a letter. She kissed the paper when she saw “my beautiful wife” at the top, hugged it when she saw “I love you with all my heart” at the bottom, and sniffed it when she realized it smelled of her husband’s perfume.

Out of excitement, and without even bothering to read the content of the letter, she made up her mind to cook him his favorite meal for dinner that night. She quickly rushed to the kitchen and got to work. After cooking and setting the table, she went to the wash room and took a shower, put on her most attractive night gown and dressed the bed.

Just as she was about to finish laying the bed her husband walked into the house. When she heard him come in she went out to welcome him. To her surprise, her husband was very furious when he saw her. She became very confused and asked why he wouldn’t even let her welcome him with a hug but instead have that angry look on his face.

The husband asked, “Did you read the letter I left you on the table?”
The woman responded, “Oh yes I saw it. That’s why I went through all the trouble to prepare your favorite meal for you. Thank you so much honey, it was sweet of you.”
She leaned in to give him a kiss but he pushed her away to her surprise.

The husband went on, “If you did, then why haven’t you done any of the things I instructed you to do?”
The man went inside and came out again quickly with an already packed suit case. He headed straight for the door and said to his wife, “See you in 7 days.”

The woman stood there confused but before she could utter a word, the door had slammed behind him.

She went back to the dining table to take a second look at the letter.

It read……
My beautiful wife, My company has asked 4 colleges and myself to go on a seven day trip to Dubai for a training program. They said that we can bring along our wives and I thought this will be the best opportunity for us to have the honeymoon we never did after we got married.
I have already packed a suit case for myself, so please pack yours. Our flight leaves at exactly 7 pm so I will be home at 6 o’clock for us to go to the airport. No need to cook dinner since there will be food on the plane. Just be prepare to go as soon as I get back. Please be ready before I get back so we don't miss the flight. I Love you with all my heart.

I bet you thought this woman was unwise when you realized her mistake as you read this piece.

Well unfortunately this is the state of many Christians in the Body of Christ today. We have accepted Jesus as our Lord, and are excited about being children of God and the fact that He will come back again for us one day. But we have not taken into account what He expects us to do before His return.
This is because our Bibles are closed. We have read a few scriptures in the Word and are excited about promises but have completely ignored most of his instructions.

You do not know a man if you do not know His Word.
How then do we profess to be married to a groom whose word we have relegated to the background in the pursuit of signs and wonders.

Unfortunately what many don’t know is that the Word is the power for signs and wonders, so if we go for the word these things we are chasing will chase us.

Let us pay attention to His letter, which is the Word of God. It will draw us close to His desire for us and enable us to walk in victory over this world and it's challenges.

Maranatha - Jesus is coming soon!

GET YOURSELVES DELIVERED.

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: GET YOURSELVES DELIVERED.

Practical Steps To Take When Trying To get yourselves delivered

1) Plead The Blood Of Jesus. “ I Cover Myself In The Blood Of Jesus.”

2) Bind All The Demons.
Matthew 18:18 Says “Assuredly, I Say To You, Whatever You Bind On Earth Will Be Bound In Heaven, And Whatever You Loose On Earth Will Be Loosed In Heaven.”

3) Command The Demons To Loose Their Hold.

“It Is Written That Whatever I (Insert Your Name) Bind On Earth Shall Be Bound In Heaven. Whatever I (Insert Your Name) Loose On Earth Shall Be Loose In Heaven. I Bind All You Demons And Command You To Loose Your hold in Jesus name”

4) You Decree That Everything God Hasn’t Planted In The Captive Be Uprooted (Matthew 15:13). You Can Pray Saying Something Like “Whatever The Enemy Has Put In This Person That Has Not Been Put There By God, I Command You To Leave”

5) Command yourselves or The Captive To Be Free In The Name Of Jesus And They Shall Be Free!

Brethren, Don’t Wait For The Devil To Give You Demonstrations. Don’t Listen To Demons, They Are Liars. Some Of You Have Been Thought To Ask The Demons Questions But You Don’t Need To Waste time asking questions. All you need is to listen to God's direction as you pray on.

After Delivering The Captive, There Are Certain Things You Must Do

1) Be Filled With The Holy Spirit.

2) Be An Aggressive Soul-Winner. Mark 5:15-20, God Told The Mad Man After He Had Been Set Free To Go Win Souls. The Reason Why Many People Go Back Into Sin After Getting Saved Or Get Possessed After Being Delivered Is Because They Don’t Get Busy For God.

3) Live Holy.
John 14:30, John 8:44. If You Continue In Sin, The Devil Will Come Back To Claim You.

4) Be Prayerful.
1thess 5:17. When You Pray, Particularly In Tongues, You Will Keep The Devil Far Away From You.

In Acts 19:11-17, The Bible Tells A Story Of The Seven Sons Of Sceva Who Tried Casting Out Demons In The Name Of “Jesus Who Paul Preached” But Rather Than Come Out, They Demon Replied And Said “Jesus I Know, And Paul I Know; But Who Are You?”.
Just Because You Have Learnt So Much About Deliverance this week Does Not Mean You Can Go Around Casting Out Demons.

If You Are Not Really A Child Of God And You Go Trying To Cast Out Demons Just Because you have read it here in the morning meal, The Demon Will Say To You “Jesus I Know, But Who Are You?”.

You Can Only Be A Partaker Of The Blessings If You Surrender Your Life Truly And Totally To God.

LET US PRAY
FATHER IN JESUS NAME, I SURRENDER ALL TO YOU, POSSESS US WITH YOUR SPIRIT AND MAKE US QUALIFY SPIRITUALLY IN JESUS NAME.

TOPIC: JESUS THE DELIVERER:

There Are Certain Things You Need To Know About Jesus The Deliverer:
Not your pastor, not your prophet, but Jesus is the deliverer

THINGS TO KNOW

I. You Need To Know The Power In His Name.
Phil 2:9-11 Says “Therefore God Also Has Highly Exalted Him And Given Him The Name Which Is Above Every Name, That At The Name Of Jesus Every Knee Should Bow, Of Those In Heaven, And Of Those On Earth, And Of Those Under The Earth, And That Every Tongue Should Confess That Jesus Christ Is Lord, To The Glory Of God The Father”. If You Cast Out Demons In Your Name, You Will Get Into Trouble But If You Cast Out Demons In The Name Of Jesus, The Demons Will Move.

2. You Need To Know The Power In His Blood.
Revelation 12:11 Says “And They Overcame Him By The Blood Of The Lamb”. There Is Power Mighty, Tremendous Power In The Blood Of Jesus. The Bible Says The Life Of An Animal Is In Its Blood So You Need To Know That The Very Life Of God Is In The Blood Of Jesus And That Makes The Blood Powerful!

3. You Need To Know The Power In The Word. When Jesus Was Faced With Temptation In The Wilderness, He Overcame The Devil By Saying “It Is Written”. The Word Of God Is Powerful,
Bible Says In Ephesians 6:17 That Word Of God Is The Sword Of The Spirit. So When The Devil Comes To Harass You, You Draw Out Your Sword (Which Is The Word) To Fight Him.

EVERY DEMONIC WORK AND MANIPULATION IN OUR LIFE, MAY THE SWORD OF THE LORD CUT THEM TO PIECES IN JESUS NAME.

It Is Great To Be Delivered But It Is Much Better Never To Be Possessed Again. Sometimes People Get Delivered But Due To Carelessness, They Get Possessed All Over Again.

Matthew 12:43-45 Says “ When An Unclean Spirit Goes Out Of A Man, He Goes Through Dry Places, Seeking Rest, And Finds None. Then He Says, ‘I Will Return To My House From Which I Came.’ And When He Comes, He Finds I Empty, Swept, And Put In Order. Then He Goes And Takes With Him Seven Other Spirits More Wicked Than Himself, And They Enter And Dwell There; And The Last State Of That Man Is Worse Than The First”. Many Are Going To Be free as you read this, And By The Grace Of God, They Will Be Free Forever In Jesus Name. Amen. When God Sets You Free, You Will Be Free Completely In Jesus Name. Amen.

It’s Great To Be Delivered But It Is Better Never To Have Been Possessed.
If You Ask Anyone Who Has Been Delivered Before, They Will Tell You That There Is Something To Show That They Had Been Possessed In The Past.
For Example The Mad Man Of Gadara Used To Cut Himself With Stones, After Being Delivered, He Must Have Felt Totally Okay But There Would Have Been Scars Left On His Body From The Cuts. If You Have Never Been Possessed, It’s A Great Thing But If You Are Been Held Down By Demons, God Will Deliver You In Jesus Name. Amen.

The Main Text For Today's morning. Meal Says “These Signs Will Follow Those Who Believe: In My Name They Will Cast Out Demons”. This meal Is Not Just For You To Be Delivered, You Are Called To Deliver Others Too.

What Are The Things Required To Have A Deliverance Ministry to Deliver Someone?

You Must Have An Intimate Knowledge Of The Great Deliverer. In Daniel 11:32, The Bible Says “The People Who Know Their God Shall Be Strong, And Carry Out Great Exploits”. If You Know The Great Deliverer Who Is Jesus, You Will Be Able To Do Exploits And Cast Out Demons.

It Is A Great Thing To Be Delivered. In Luke 8:1-3, Mary Magdalene Was Delivered Of Seven Demons And Several Infirmities And After That Deliverance, She Became A Divine Treasurer Using Her Resources For God’s Kingdom.
Also In The Book Of Mark 5, After The Mad Man Of Gadara Was Delivered Of The Legion Of Demons, He Became An Evangelist, Proclaiming All Jesus Had Done.

SECRET TO GOD'S BLESSING (pt 5)

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: SECRET TO GOD'S BLESSING (pt 5)

God's blessings are often missed unless people gain supernatural perspective.

Haggai gave the people divine perspective on what was happening to them economically, politically and agriculturally. When people are able to see their circumstances from the eyes of God they are apt to reverse their course.
People began to fear God more than anything else and started to obey Him.

"Blessed is the man who fears the Lord who greatly delights in His commands. He will not fear when the evil day comes because his heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord. I have never seen the righteous go hungry or his seed begging for bread." (Psa 112)

Learn to use God's word to head off excuses, discouragements and detours that people may throw in your face and you will see your self in the abundance of God. Don't do things without connecting the spiritual aspect of it, because it is the spiritual that control the physical, the more you ignore the spiritual aspect the more you are likely to work in darkness of your endeavour

LET US PRAY
FATHER IN JESUS NAME, OPEN OUR SPIRITUAL EYE TO SEE HIDING THINGS OF THE SPIRIT AND TO BE IN CONTROL IN JESUS NAME.

Haggai 1:6 KJV
Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.

4. God's blessings are often missed when people wallow in their discouragements. Haggai helped the people overcome their intertia with a strong authoritative word from the Lord. It often takes listening to a person of God who inspires us to act and break out of our ruts.

Haggai was a task oriented leader but God used him in a complementary fashion with Zerubbabel, a religious priestly authority.
Haggai's major influence came not through a political position but through God's giftedness. He overcame excuses that were given about building the temple as there had been a delay for 16 years.

The day me and you take a bold steps towards fulfilling God's word is the day we will are set to harvest the good of the land. Don't allow discouragement again in your life, ministry and endeavour. And you will enter in to God's secrets blessing.

LET US PRAY
FATHER IN JESUS NAME, SHOW US YOUR SECRETS OF BLESSING AND MAKE US ENJOY YOUR WEALTH IN JESUS NAME.

SECRET TO GOD'S BLESSING (pt 3)

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: SECRET TO GOD'S BLESSING (pt 3)

Continuation from our previous point of secrete of God's blessing from the book of Haggai 1:1-3:23. Today's reason is what I called.

PROCRASTINATION

God's blessings are missed because people procrastinate. The people began building the Temple 23 days after they arrived back from being in exile.
Too many people hear excellent sermons on TV, the radio and church but fail to respond due to a bad case of procrastination. Forgetting to act is a recipe for disaster in God's plans.

James wrote, "Be doers of the word and not merely hearers who deceive themselves." (James 1:22) When you hear a message from God be sure that you put it into action. Ask God what He wants you to do when you read His word and make plans to put it into practice immediately.
92% of the world is yet to make a decision about Christ as Savior and soon it will be too late. Many people have delayed too long and so have settle for mediocrity bereft of God's blessings because they failed to act on God's will when they were young.

Today's is still fresh and new, before you go out,ask yourself how many of God's words and command to me have I take step upon?
...CONTINUE TOMORROW

LET US PRAY
DEAR LORD JESUS CHRIST QUICKEN OUR SPIRIT MAN TO WAKE UP TO A POSITIVE CHALLENGES THAT WE BRINGS ABOUT OUR BLESSING IN JESUS NAME.
