T in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – ThANKsGiViNG: #TakesPreparation

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 22^nd December 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day of the Lord. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

Let’s wrap up this series on D.E.L.I.G.H.T (based on Psalm 37 vs. 4 – “DELIGHT yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.”) – by looking at the T as ThANKsGiViNG.

The book of Psalms 100:4 says: Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name!

Yesterday we said, ThANKsGiViNG is the password we need in order to be able to enter to the presence of God. This means thanksgiving and praise are to be present in us, in our hearts and minds before we bow down before Him, before we join other people in worship.

As we continue in this 11^th hour (season of harvest) – another thing to note about ThANKsGiViNG is that… it takes preparation!!

We need to be determined and be prepared in our hearts before we can really give thanks to God. We are to come to worship with hearts and minds that have been consecrated, set apart, made holy for the Lord. We are to come ready, focused, serious, knowing what we are about. We are to come having meditated on who God is and what He has done. We must have allowed our hearts and minds to dwell on the goodness of God. We are to come having acknowledged His greatness and His grace. We are to come to the throne of grace – cleansed by the blood and received the grace to be holy in worship. We are to come into His presence prayerfully.

My dear! no matter how the situation is – we must purpose in our hearts to come prepared to worship Christ the King.

Have a Thank-FULL Thursday!!

Loving Regards,

I would be rounding up this series on D.E.L.I.G.H.T (based on Psalm 37 vs. 4 – “DELIGHT yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.”) – by taking some time to look at the T as ThANKsGiViNG – Giving of Thanks… act of giving thanks… act of gratitude… grateful appreciation of favor… an expression of thanks… etcetera.

T in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – ThANKsGiViNG — Enter into…

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 20^th December 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day of the Lord. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

Wrapping up this series on D.E.L.I.G.H.T (based on Psalm 37 vs. 4 – “DELIGHT yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.”) – by looking at the T as ThANKsGiViNG – Giving of thanks… act of giving thanks… act of gratitude… grateful appreciation of favor… an expression of thanks… etcetera. The book of Psalms 100:4 says – “ENTER INTO His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise: be thankful unto Him, and bless His name” (NIV)

The Psalmist is admonishing us to “Enter into God’s gate with thanksgiving….”– To “Enter into” is to go into… To “Enter into” implies that an action is required… To “Enter into” means to participate in something… To “Enter into” signifies a purposeful forward advancement… To “Enter into” means to get involved and take part in something… To “Enter into” signifies a move from the current position…

My dear! The Word of the Lord coming to us this 11^th hour (harvest season) is that – We must enter into God’s gate… We must move into the presence of the Lord. We must make every effort to give thanks to God on a daily. We must do something physical – lift up our hands, bow down, close our eyes as we worship the King of kings. We must get involved by commanding our body, soul and spirit to praise the Lord. We must re-position ourselves so that we can participate fully in giving thanks to God with everything that is within us. We must move from our current (weary/downcast) state to a position where our heart is free to worship the One who is able to make a way where there is no way.

As we continue in this new day – let’s move from our current position and take those actions required for us to be able to enter into God’s gate.

Have a Thank-Full Tuesday!!

Kind Regards,

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 19^th December 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day of the Lord. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

I would be rounding up this series on D.E.L.I.G.H.T (based on Psalm 37 vs. 4 – “DELIGHT yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.”) – by taking some time to look at the T as ThANKsGiViNG – Giving of Thanks… act of giving thanks… act of gratitude… grateful appreciation of favor… an expression of thanks… etcetera.

My dear! At this 11^th hour (hour of divine harvest) – Let’s look back at the past 11.5 months of this year… Let’s take stock of all that we have been through this year… Let’s count our blessings and name them one by one… Let’s take time to thank God for everything He has done since the beginning of the year… Let’s take time to show appreciation to God for all that He is doing in and through our life… Let’s take time to expression our gratitude to God for all He has brought us through…Let’s take time to thank God for what He will do these remaining days of 2011.

As we continue in this great day – let’s enter into God’s gates and give Him all the glory because if it has not been the Lord on our side –where would we be!!

Enjoy a ThANKsGiViNG day!

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest: #ProperTime!!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 14^th December 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day of the Lord. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!!

My dear! The Word coming to us this new day is that: If we don’t grow weary the harvest will definitely take place at the #ProperTime. If we don’t get tired of sowing the right seeds we will reap a bountiful harvest at the right time. If we don’t get fed up of doing good, we will reap the fruit of our labor in due time. If we don’t grow weary of sowing the seeds of love, we reap loving relationships. If we don’t get tired of doing the right things we will reap a good life when the time is right.

Keep on sowing those seeds to please the spirit and be expectant because your harvest will definitely come at the #ProperTime

Loving Regards,

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest: #dontquit!!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 15^th December 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day of the Lord. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!!

….we will reap a harvest if we do not give up (NIV) …. we will harvest a good crop if we don’t give up, or quit. (MSG)… we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint (AMPL) …. we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up. (NLT)….. You will be rewarded when the time is right, if you don’t give up. (CEV)

The Word of encouragement coming to us this new day is that: Harvest is bound to happen if we #don’tquit. We will definitely experience spiritual harvest if we dont stop praying & believing. We will surely experience a bountiful harvest in our situation if we don’t get tired of sowing the right seeds. We will have a harvest of blessing in our marriage, career, business if we don’t relax in our efforts. We will be rewarded with a great financial harvest if we don’t faint in giving to the poor and the work of the Kingdom. We will reap a harvest of good things if we #dontquit doing the right things.

As we continue in this season of harvest – I decree an open heaven and a release of spiritual, physical and financial harvest into our lives this season in Jesus name. Amen!!

Have an expectant heart as you go into this new day!!

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest: #NotBeWeary!!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 12^th December 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day of the Lord. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!!

My dear! the truth coming to us this harvest season is that: #NotBeWeary… #NotBeWeary is something that is important when it comes to seedtime and harvest. But as we know

#NotBeWeary is definitely not an easy thing to do especially when everything seems to be going contrary to our expectation and when we can’t see the way forward.

May God help us and grant us the grace and strength we need to ‘keep on keeping on” in spite of the way things look like around us.

Have a “weary-free” day!

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest: #Spiritualfruit!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 8^th December 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day of the Lord. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!!

Still continuing this concept of Harvest as the H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T we said the principle of Seedtime and Harvest is about reaping whatsoever we sow — let’s continue looking at Paul’s admonition of this concept of harvest using the scripture in the book of Galatians 6 verse 8b, which says: You will always harvest what you plant…..whoever sows to please the SPIRIT, from the SPIRIT will reap ETERNAL LIFE. In this scripture Paul was admonishing us that the #spiritual is also important with Seedtime and Harvest so we should endeavor to sow to please the Spirit so that we can reap a godly life. And he goes further in the book of Galatians 5:22 & 23 to list the some of the #Spiritualfruit that people harvest when they take time to sow to please the Spirit ~ But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (NLT)….But what happens when we live God’s way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard—things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely (MSG)

As we continue in this harvest season– let’s make every effort to understand and sow things to please the spirit so that will a good and godly harvest.

Enjoy your season of spiritual harvest!

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest: Also the #Spiritual!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 7^th December 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day of the Lord. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!!

In this scripture, Paul is admonishing us to endeavor to sow seed to please the Spirit so that we can reap eternal life. We should endeavor to be lead by the Spirit so we will reap a good harvest. We should allow the Holy Spirit to do the work in us so that we can harvest a crop of real life. We should endeavor to walk by faith so that we will reap the fruit of our prayers. We should endeavor to please God with our life. We should seek to cultivate the affection/character of the Holy Spirit. We should endeavor to receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit on a daily basis. We should seek to use our worldly substance to promote spiritual things. We should yield to the leading of the Holy Spirit.

The Word coming this new day is that – The #spiritual is also important with Seedtime and Harvest – so we should endeavor to sow to please the Spirit so that we can reap a godly life.

As we continue in tis harvest season– let’s seek to understand those things we can sow to the spirit so that we can please God with our life..

Enjoy your season of spiritual harvest!

H in H.A.R.V.E.S.T — RE: Fleshy seeds!!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 6^th December 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day of the Lord. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

Yesterday we said we should be careful not to only sow to please our flesh because sowing “fleshy seeds” because one day we will definitely reap the results of every of our actions/words. And we saw the list the kind of things people harvest when they sow “fleshy seeds” in the book of Galatians 5:19-21 —Let’s re-visit this again today using 2 other translations of the Bible.

Contemporary English Version (CEV): People’s desires make them give in to immoral ways, filthy thoughts, and shameful deeds. They worship idols, practice witchcraft, hate others, and are hard to get along with. People become jealous, angry, and selfish. They not only argue and cause trouble, but they are envious. They get drunk, carry on at wild parties, and do other evil things as well. I told you before, and I am telling you again: No one who does these things will share in the blessings of God’s kingdom.

Message (MSG): it is obvious what kind of life develops out of trying to get your own way all the time: repetitive, loveless, cheap sex; a stinking accumulation of mental and emotional garbage; frenzied and joyless grabs for happiness; trinket gods; magic-show religion; paranoid loneliness; cutthroat competition; all-consuming-yet-never-satisfied wants; a brutal temper; an impotence to love or be loved; divided homes and divided lives; small-minded and lopsided pursuits; the vicious habit of depersonalizing everyone into a rival; uncontrolled and uncontrollable addictions; ugly parodies of community. I could go on. This isn’t the first time I have warned you, you know. If you use your freedom this way, you will not inherit God’s kingdom.

Paul says here that he could go on and on about the results that sowing “fleshy seeds” will eventually bring to the life of those who always trying to get their own way and keep on sowing to please their flesh/sinful nature.

As we continue in this season of harvest – let’s make a daily commitment to avoid “fleshy seeds” because the harvest that these kinds of seeds produce are not always the best.

Enjoy a “last minute” miracle this season!

Temidayo

H in H.A.R.V.E.S.T: Fleshy seeds!!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 5^th December 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day of the Lord. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!! Let’s continue this concept of Harvest as the H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T — we said that the principle of Seedtime and Harvest is based on reaping whatsoever we sow because it would certainly be a surprise if we planted corn and tomato came up. As it is a natural law to harvest what we plant so also is it true other areas as well. Let’s look further at Paul’s admonition in the book of Galatians 6 verse 8a, which says: Those who sow or live only to satisfy their own sinful nature (flesh/physical desires) will HARVEST decay and death from that sinful nature…. (NLT)

Paul is highlighting that we should be careful not to only sow to please our flesh because sowing “fleshy seeds” i.e. following the desires of our flesh/sinful nature can lead to sorrow and evil. And he goes further in the book of Galatians 5:19-21 to list the kind of things people harvest when they sow “fleshy seeds” — When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.

The Word coming to us today is that: we should be careful not to sow “fleshy seeds” which will eventually lead to a harvest of some of the results listed above. We should be careful not to practice the acts of the flesh. We should be careful not to be controlled by the works of the flesh.

As we continue in this season of harvest – let’s be conscious of the seeds we sow on a daily basis because one day we will reap the results of every of our actions/words.

Enjoy a “last minute” harvest today!

The struggle is over!!

TGIFriday!!

Thank God for today the 2^nd day of December 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this new month in Jesus Name. Amen!

As we start this new day – let’s be expectant of some last minute miracles. We have been in this place long enough and the mountainside has been rough. But now is the time to reap the harvest of the seeds we have sown. Now is the set time for God’s favor. Be blessed as you listen to: “The struggle is over” by Youth For Christ – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMvDKt8rmr4

[youtube]FMvDKt8rmr4[/youtube]

As you go into this new day and weekend – be encouraged and declare: The struggle is over… The heartache is over… The trouble is over… Your struggle is over for you.!

Be expectant of some last minute move of God this last month of the year 2011.

H in H.A.R.V.E.S.T: Establising covenant…

Hey dear, Happy New Month!!

Thank God for today 1^st December 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day. May we experience some “last minute” miracles ~ this last month of the year in Jesus name. Amen!

As we start this new month of December, we’ll continue this concept of Harvest as the H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – the understanding that it is the 11^th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!! Let’s look at the scripture in the book of Genesis 17 vs. 7: I’m establishing my covenant between me and you, a covenant that includes your descendants, a covenant that goes on and on and on, a covenant that commits me to be your God and the God of your descendants. In this scripture God told Abraham that He was going to ESTABLISH His covenant between him (Abraham) and his descendants (children). “To establish” means: to set up; to place or settle in a secure position or condition; to set (a thing or person) in a place and make it stable there.

As you and I are descendants of Abraham, the Word coming to us this last month of the year 2011 is that: God is going to establish His covenant (word, promises, prophesy) in our life at the last minute (11^th hour).

My dear! As we go into the last month of the year 2011 – let’s be encouraged because God going to establish and settle every area of our life this month. Let’s be expectant this 11^th hour because God is going to cause us to be recognized and favored. Let’s be expectant this 11^th hour because God is going to bring stability to every area of our life. Let’s be expectant because God is setting us up for some 11^th hour miracles this month.
You might be thinking how can this happen?… it’s only 31 days remaining till the end of the year. But I want to assure you that: God is going to establish His covenant with us because He is not a man that He should lie. Once He has spoken He will bring it to pass.

As we continue to take time to sow the right seed – we will indeed reap the harvest of this word in Genesis 17:7 at this 11^th hour in Jesus Name. Amen!.

Have a blessed month!!

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest: Not just the physical!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 30^th November 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day of the Lord. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!! Let’s continue this concept of Harvest as the H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T by looking further at the scripture in the book of Genesis 8:22- “while the earth remains, SEEDTIME and HARVEST…shall not cease”.

We said yesterday that the principle of Seedtime and Harvest is based on reaping whatsoever we sow — let’s continue looking at Paul’s admonition of this concept of harvest using the scripture in the book of Galatians 6 verse 8a, which says: Those who sow or live only to satisfy their own sinful nature (flesh/physical desires) will HARVEST decay and death from that sinful nature…. (NLT)

In this scripture, Paul is highlighting that we should be careful not to only sow to please our flesh because sowing to the flesh can lead to destruction.

My dear! The truth of the Word coming to us this new day is that: We should be careful not to sow seeds that will only benefit our physical life. We should be careful that we don’t do things that will only please our sensual nature. We should be careful not to do things that is only good for our physical appearance. We should be careful not to do things that only suits us. We should be careful not to take actions that satisfies only our evil nature. We should be careful not to do things that will satisfy only our fleshy desires. We should be careful not to do things that will cause us to live out of the control of the Spirit of God.

As we continue in this great day – may God grant us the grace not to sow only “fleshy” seeds so that we will reap an abundance harvest and not destruction from the seeds sown.

Have an awesome harvest season!

Loving Regards,

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest: whatever we sow!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 29^th November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!! Let’s continue this concept of Harvest as the H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T by looking further at the scripture in the book of Genesis 8:22- “while the earth remains, SEEDTIME and HARVEST…shall not cease”.

We said yesterday that the principle of Seedtime and Harvest is about reaping after its kind – this concept of harvest is also highlighted by Paul in Galatians 6 verse 7, which says: Don’t be misled. Remember that you can’t ignore God and get away with it. You will always reap what you sow!” ~ Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant (NLT) ~ Don’t be misled: No one makes a fool of God. What a person plants, he will harvest. (AMPL) ~ You cannot fool God, so don’t make a fool of yourself! You will harvest what you plant. (CEV) ~ Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. (NIV)

This scripture speaks volume in itself – it’s saying basically that: We will reap whatever we sow! Whatever meaning whatsoever J — So let’s not think we can fool God. Let’s not think we can get away with sowing bad seed and expect to reap anything good. Let’s not fool ourselves thinking we can deceive God by our actions because we will reap the reward of everything we do. Let’s not think we can mock God by the things we say because we will reap the fruit of our lips (our words). Let’s not think we can play God by the kind of seeds we sow and expect to harvest anything good. Let’s not deceive ourselves because we will reap the fruit of the kind of seeds we sow into our life.

My dear! The truth of the Word coming to us this new day is that: We should not deceive ourselves because one day we will reap whatsoever (good or bad) that we sow in this life.

May God grant us the grace to consciously sow the right kind of seeds – so that we will reap a bountiful harvest of good things in our life..

Have a glorious harvest season!

Loving Regards,

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest: After its kind

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 28^th November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!! Let’s continue this concept of Harvest as the H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T by looking further at the scripture in the book of Genesis 8:22- “while the earth remains, SEEDTIME and HARVEST…shall not cease”.

We said principle of Seedtime and Harvest is a law from God – then God has to live by His own rules and ensure that he supports and operate within the confines of this principle. Another scripture to support this concept is Genesis 1:11 which says: “And God said, ’Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth:’ and it was so.” At creation, God commanded the earth to bring forth seeds that will produce after its kind. The apple will always provide a seed that will reproduce the apple. The loving person will reproduce loving people just as the violent will create violence all around them. A seed can only reproduce after its own kind. It’s a law of nature. God has stamped in us an image of Himself so we are reproducing ourselves in our children, our friends and our world.

The truth coming to us this new day is that: The principle of Seedtime and Harvest is about reaping after its kind. Looking at a fruit will show what kind of seed produced it and what kind of fruit will come from its seed. The question is: What kind of seed are we sowing? What kind of words are we speaking ~positive or negative words? What kind of people are we allowing to influences us? What kind of choices are we making? What kind of example are we showing our children/siblings ~ good or bad? What kind of life are we living?

May God help us as we take stock of things – so that with this principle of “reap after its kind”, we will experience a bountiful harvest of the good we have sown.

Have a wonderful harvest season!

Loving Regards,

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest: Hundredfold return!!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 23^rd November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this month in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!! Let’s continue this concept of Harvest as the H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T by looking further at the scripture in the book of Genesis 8:22- “while the earth remains, SEEDTIME and HARVEST…shall not cease”

Yesterday, we started by saying if the principle of Seedtime and Harvest is a law from God – then God has to live by His own rules and ensure that he supports and operate within the confines of this principle. Another translation of the scripture in the book of Genesis Chapter 26 vs.12 says: Isaac planted crops in that land and the same year REAPED a hundredfold, because the LORD blessed him (NIV) – When Isaac planted his crops that year, he HARVESTED a hundred time more grain than he planted, for the Lord blessed him. (NLT) God blessed Isaac’s seed and it came back to him in form of a good harvest

From this scripture, we can say that the principle of Seedtime and Harvest is about a hundredfold multiplication – because God always ensures that every seed that is sown multiplies. God is bound to release the blessing of a hundredfold return on all of the seed that we have sown that qualifies.

So my dear! Just like we get a return on our investment (shares, bond, real estate etc) in the financial world – the word of the encouragement coming to us at this 11^th hour is that: we will experience a hundredfold return on the investment we have made into our spiritual life. We will experience a hundredfold return on the love we have sown into our relationships. We will experience a hundredfold return on the time we have invested in our career/business. We will experience a hundredfold return on the time we have invested into bringing up our children. We will experience a hundredfold return on the handwork we have put into our jobs/studies/career/business etc. We will experience a hundredfold return on the service we have rendered in our local churches. We will experience a hundredfold return on every good seed we have sown in every aspect of life.

As we continue in this 11^th hour – let’s continue to believe for a hundredfold return on the all physical, financial & spiritual investment we have made this year 2011.

Enjoy a bountiful harvest-time!

Loving Regards,

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 22^nd November 2011 – let’s rejoice & be glad in this new day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life today in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!! Let’s continue this concept of Harvest as the H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T by looking further at the scripture “while the earth remains, SEEDTIME and HARVEST…shall not cease” (Genesis 8:22)

We said the concept of Seedtime and Harvest is a law and the nature of the seed is also important. Another thing about this concept is that – Seeds always bring back more than you sow i.e. seed multiplication. And if the principle of Seedtime and Harvest a law from God – then God has to live by His own rules and make every effort to operate within the confines of this principle. As the scripture in the book of Genesis Chapter 26 vs.12 says: Isaac planted grain and had a GOOD HARVEST that same year. The LORD blessed him, (CEV) – Isaac planted crops in that land and took in a HUGE HARVEST. God blessed him (MSG) – In this scripture, we are being told that – God blessed Isaac’s seed and it came back to him (the same year) in form of a good harvest. The Lord’s hand was upon the seed that Isaac planted and he reaped a huge harvest in the same season.

The word coming to us 2day is that – the principle of Seedtime and Harvest is about “seed multiplication” and God will always ensure there is multiplication of the seeds sown. So let’s trust God to multiply the seed we have sown in every area of our life. Let’s believe God to cause a bountiful harvest of the seed we have sown into the life of people. Let’s be encouraged knowing that there will be a fulfillment of seed of the Word that we have sown into our situation.

As we continue in this 11^th hour – let’s be expectant of that sudden & last minute harvest from every seed we have sown this year 2011.

Enjoy a wonderful harvest time!

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest: Nature of the Seed!!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today 21^th November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this month in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!! Let’s continue this concept of Harvest as the H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T by looking further at the scripture in the book of Genesis 8:22- “while the earth remains, SEEDTIME and HARVEST…shall not cease”

We said the concept of Seedtime and Harvest is a law and a seed is required for the law to be fulfilled. Another thing about this concept is the “Nature of the Seed” As we know that seed produces after it’s own kind. This means whatever harvest one expects in life, one must start with a seed of like kind.

So the word coming to us today is that: the “nature of the seed” is very important. If we want an increased awareness of what love is, then we have to sow seeds of love. If we want a harvest of wisdom, then we have to sow seeds of wisdom into our life through studying. If we want to enjoy good relationships in life, then we must sow lovely and godly seeds into people around us. if we want to enjoy good health, then we have to sow seeds of healthy & well balanced diet into our life. If we want to harvest success in our career/business, then we have to sow seeds of time into what we are doing. If we want to reap a harvest of prosperity, then we have to sow seeds of finance. If we want to enjoy a good spiritual life, then we have to sow seeds of fellowship with God and fellow believers.

As we continue in this 11th hour season – let’s be conscious of the nature of the seeds we sow so that we can reap the harvest that we desire.

Enjoy a blessed seed-sowing time!

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest: Seed is required!!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today the 17^th November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!! Let’s continue this concept of Harvest as the H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T by looking further at the scripture in the book of Genesis 8:22- “while the earth remains, SEEDTIME and HARVEST…shall not cease”

Yesterday we said the concept of Seedtime and Harvest is a law – it’s a constant and will never cease. Another thing to note about this concept is that: Seed is required for this law to be fulfilled. Seeds must be planted, grow & multiply for harvest to happen. Just like a corn seed planted grows up and produces ears with rows and rows more corn seeds.

The Word coming to us today is that: Seed is required! The seed must grow, multiply and mature for there to be a bountiful harvest. As we said everything we think, say and do is a seed – so this seed will grow up and multiply i.e produce many more of their own kind. Therefore, we had better like the seeds we’re planting because they will multiply. We had better be careful what kind of seeds we’re planting because they will multiply into harvest that we have to reap. We had better plant the right kind of seeds into our life because they will grow and produce more of their own kind.

As we continue in this 11^th hour season – remember the seed is important in the kind of harvest we reap, so let’s make conscious effort to plant the right kind of seeds into our life and those around us.

Have a blessed and highly favored day!

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest – It’s a law!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today the 16^th November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

We started considering the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!! Let’s continue this concept of Harvest as the H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T by looking further at the scripture in the book of Genesis 8:22 – “while the earth remains, SEEDTIME and HARVEST…shall not cease”.

What this scripture is saying here is that: ” Seedtime and Harvest” is the foundation principle and law within which God operate. And it will remain in force as long as the earth remains. Seedtime & Harvest is the basis or foundational principle of all that God has done, created, is doing, or will ever do. When we think of this concept the most important thing to understand is that Seedtime & Harvest is a law – It doesn’t change. It is not a probability or something that happens sometimes. It is constant, always true and works every single time.

So basically the truth coming to us this new day is that: Seedtime & Harvest is a law ~ We must understand and operate within this principle in every aspect of life. We must understand that Seedtime & Harvest affects everyone and everything God has created. We must understand that everything we think, say or do has its basis in this concept. We must understand that seed is an important part of this concept.

As we go thru this season – let’s remind ourselves that “Seedtime & Harvest is a law” ~ sowing seeds and reaping a harvest from seeds sown will never cease to happen as long as there is life.

Have a fruitful day!

H in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – Harvest

Hey dear,

Thank God for today the 15^th November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this new month in Jesus Name. Amen!

Yesterday we started looking at the concept of Harvest which kind of ties in with the Eleventh hour” i.e. It’s the 11th hour (last minute) and it is harvest time!! And if we remember earlier in the year, we have been trying to understand what it means to Delight in the Lord as Psalm 37;4 says: “Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart.”.

So far we have looked at D.E.L.I.G.H.T under the following categories: Decrees, Expressions, Love, Influence, Godconnection and now we want to look at the H – Harvest and how it relates to delighting in God.

The scripture in the book of Genesis 8:22 says – “while the earth remains, seedtime and harvest…shall not cease”. The 1^st question is: Does the earth still remain? If it does – then for each seed that is sown, there must be a time of harvest. This law of sowing and reaping can never cease/stop. Just like farmers must plants their seed in the spring in order for them to have something to harvest ~ because if no seeds are planted then there’s no crop to harvest that year. So also we need to sow good seed into every aspects of our life in order for us to be able to reap something good out of life.

My dear! The word coming to us this 11^th hour is that: It’s harvest time! ~ but we must be prepared to plant some seeds order for us to be able to have something to harvest.

Note: See some archived messages on “Harvest” by Pastor Andy on: http://www.wocconline.org/livebroadcast/

As we continue in this 11^th hour – let’s make conscious effort to plant those seeds and expect a bountiful harvest.

It is Harvest Time!!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today the 14^th November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this new month in Jesus Name. Amen!

As we continue to think about this month (11/11) in light of the phrase: “The Eleventh hour” i.e. we experiencing some last minute/sudden miracles. Another concept that comes to mind is “Harvest” as the bible says in the book of Genesis 8: 22 — “As long as the earth endures, SEEDTIME and HARVEST, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease. This scripture is a law that God has set into motion for every aspect of life. This means there will never be a time that we won’t have an opportunity to sow and reap. There will always be a time to plant seed and a time to harvest. But if we are going to receive the results promised then we must operate according to the Law set forth by God. This means if we desire to harvest something good then we must make sure we plant some good seeds. If we have planted some seeds we must be prepared for the harvest.

My dear! The Word coming to us at this 11th hour is that: It is Harvest Time!! It is time to reap what we have sown (Galatians 6:7). It’s time to reap everything we have sown into every aspect of our life. It’s time to reap the time we have sown into our friendships/relationships. It’s time to reap the hard work we have sown into our jobs/business/ministry/career. Its time to reap the love we have sown into our families/marriages. It’s time for us to reap the good diet we have sown into our health. It’s time to reap from the different investments we have made. It’s time to reap from those generous seeds we have sown. It’s time for us to reap the prayers we have sown into our life and those of our loved ones.

As we continue in this new month/week/day – let’s start to prepare ourselves because: It is Harvest Time!!

Have a blessed week

The 11th hour – Example #4

Hey dear,

Thank God for today the 10^th November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this new month in Jesus Name. Amen!

As we continue to think about this month (11/11) in light of the phrase: “The Eleventh hour” i.e. we experiencing some last minute move of God and the Word “Suddenly” i.e. we experiencing some unexpected and sudden move of God in our situation at this 11^th hour. Let’s look further at the scripture in Luke 7: 12-14 — ¹² A funeral procession was coming out as he approached the village gate. The young man who had died was a widow’s only son, and a large crowd from the village was with her.¹³ When the Lord saw her, his heart overflowed with compassion. “Don’t cry!” he said. ¹⁴ Then he walked over to the coffin and touched it, and the bearers stopped.“Young man,” he said, “I tell you, get up.”

In this story we were told that Jesus was moved with compassion when He saw the widow whose only son had died. Jesus would have seen some things for Him to recognize who the dead boy’s mother was. He must have noticed the woman specially because of her state i.e. physical appearance – swollen/tired eyes from crying, type/color of clothes (black), condition of her face, emotional disposition etc.

My dear! The Word of the encouragement coming to us today is that: God has seen the state of our heart/mind… God has seen those “swollen” eyes… God has seen that “desperate” situation… God has seen the condition of things in our relationships, finances, health, job etc … God has seen how dark everything is… God has seen the state of things in our life. And He is ready to come through for us at the 11^th hour. He is about to bring life to every dead situation at the 11^th hour. He is about to touch that desperate situation. He is about to wipe our tears away at the 11^th hour.

As we continue in this month 11/11 – let’s be expectant of those 11^th hour miracles & be encouraged becos’ God is not a man that He should lie ~ He will definitely fulfill His part of the deal.

Have a Thank-FULL Thursday!

Eleventh Hour – Example # 3

Hey dear,

Thank God for today the 9^th November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this new month in Jesus Name. Amen!

As we continue to think about this month (11/11) in light of the phrase: “The Eleventh hour” i.e. we experiencing some last minute move of God and the Word “Suddenly” i.e. we experiencing some unexpected and sudden move of God in our situation at this 11^th hour. Let’s look at the scripture in Luke 7: 12-13 — ¹² A funeral procession was coming out as he approached the village gate. The young man who had died was a widow’s only son, and a large crowd from the village was with her.¹³ When the Lord saw her, his heart overflowed with compassion. And he said “Don’t cry!”

In this story we were told that as Jesus approached the gate of the city – he came across the funeral procession for a widow’s only son. Hmmm! This woman was already a widow and has now lost her only son and only means of support. This woman’s life story is an 11^th hour situation, one in which in which all hope has been lost, a situation in which there is no solution in the natural, a situation in which every support is gone, an embarrassing situation as people will be asking questions like – why would she lose both her hubby & her only child? Is there something wrong with her? Is she the one who killed them both?, a situation in which all doors has been shut, a situation in which there is emptiness and loneliness, a situation in which the future appears bleak, a depressing situation etcetera. But the Bible then goes on to say that as Jesus saw the woman – his heart was moved with compassion and said “Don’t cry!”

My dear! The Word of encouragement coming to us at this 11^th hour of life is “Don’t cry!” – No matter how hopeless everything around us looks – God is saying: “Don’t cry!” So let’s wipe those tears because the God that comes through at the 11^th hour is with us. Emmanuel our God is with us!

Have a joy-filled day!

The 11th hour – Example #2

Hey dear,

Thank God for today the 8th November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this new month in Jesus Name. Amen!

As we continue to think about this month (11/11) in light of the phrase: “The Eleventh hour” i.e. we experiencing some last minute move of God and the Word “Suddenly” i.e. we experiencing some unexpected and sudden move of God in our situation at this 11^th hour. Let’s look at the scripture in Exodus 2: 23-24 – 23 During that long period, the king of Egypt died. The Israelites groaned in their slavery and cried out, and their cry for help because of their slavery went up to God. 24 God heard their cries, and he remembered the agreement he had made with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob

In this story, the Israelites had gone through 400 years of slavery – affliction in the hands of the Egyptians. 400 years… Waow!! 400 years is a very long time for anyone to be afflicted. I am sure at some point they would have thought would God’s promise ever come to pass in their life. But the scripture then goes on to say that the people continued to groan in their slavery and a time came that God heard the deep cry of their heart and remembered the covenant He has made with their fathers (Abraham, Isaac & Jacob). Suddenly! God heard the deep cry of their heart.

Like the Israelites — you might be at this point where you are thinking – Will God’s promise ever come to pass. Will I ever experience the divine intervention of God in this situation. Will things ever get better. Will I ever find the will of God for my life. Will there ever be a change in my situation. Will I ever be financially stable. Will the Word that God has spoken ever be fulfillment in my life. Will I ever get an answer to my prayers (those questions I have been asking).

My dear! The Word of encouragement coming to us today is that: God has heard these thoughts… God has heard the cry of our heart… God has noticed the seeds we have sown. And He has remembered His covenant/promise to us.

As we continue in this season – let’s be expectant of an 11th hour miracle this month. Let’s be expectant of some “last minute” opportunities. Let’s be expectant of a “sudden” change.

Have a glorious day!

Eleventh Hour – Example # 1

Thank God for today the 7th November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this new month in Jesus Name. Amen!

As we continue to think about this month (11/11) in light of the phrase: “The Eleventh hour” i.e. experiencing some last minute move of God and the Word “Suddenly” i.e. experiencing some unexpected and sudden move of God at this 11^th hour. Let’s look at the scripture in the book of Acts 10: 30 – 31 Cornelius replied, “Four days ago I was praying in my house about this same time, three o’clock in the afternoon. SUDDENLY, a man in dazzling clothes was standing in front of me. 31 He told me, ‘Cornelius, your prayer has been heard, and your gifts to the poor have been noticed by God!

In this scripture we are told that – Suddenly a man in shining clothes (a representation of God) stood before Cornelius and told him that his prayer and all the things he has been doing for the poor has been noticed by God. The Word of God come to Cornelius suddenly and His life never remained the same.

My dear! God is also sending His Word to us today – God has heard those heartfelt prayers. God has noticed our labor of love towards people. God has heard the cry of our heart and our tears have been wiped away at this 11^th hour. God has remembered our good work and our reward has come at this 11^th hour. God has heard our prayers concerning that situation and we will experience a sudden change /shift. God has noticed our service to the people around and an unexpected blessing is on the way. God has seen our heart and our desires will be granted unto us at this 11^th hour. God has seen all the good seeds we have sown and the harvest has come at this 11^th hour.

Let’s be encouraged because it’s time to experience some 11^th hour miracles. Let’s rejoice and be glad because – it’s time to experience some sudden = “last minute” miracles.

Have a great day!

NOTHING JUST HAPPENS – Be encouraged!

A king who did not believe in the goodness of God, had a slave who, in all circumstances, said: My king, do not be discouraged, because everything God does is perfect, no mistakes! One day they went hunting and along the way a wild animal attacked the king. His slave managed to kill the animal, but could not prevent his majesty losing a finger. Furious and without showing his gratitude for being saved, the nobleman said “Is God good? If He was good, I would not have been attacked and lost my finger.” The slave replied: “My king, despite all these things, I can only tell you that God is good, and he knows “why” of all these things. What God does is perfect. He is never wrong! Outraged by the response, the king ordered the arrest of his slave.

Later, he left for another hunt and was captured by savages who made human sacrifices. In the altar, ready to sacrifice the nobleman, the savages found that the victim had not one of his fingers, so he was released. According to them, it was not so complete to be offered to the gods. Upon his return to the palace, he authorized the release of his slave that he received very affectionately. “My dear, God was really good to me! I was almost killed by the wild men, but for lack of a single finger, I was let go! But I have a question: if God is so good, why did he allow me to put you in jail?” “My King, if I had gone with you in this hunt, I would have been sacrificed for you, because I have no missing finger, therefore, remember everything God does is perfect. He is never wrong.”

Often we complain about life, and negative things that happen to us, forgetting that nothing is random and that everything has a purpose. Every morning, offer your day to God, don’t be in a rush. Ask God to inspire your thoughts, guide your actions, and ease your feelings. And do not be afraid. God is never wrong! You know why this message is for you? I do not know, but God knows and remember NOTHING JUST HAPPENS…there is always a reason.

Suddenly...!

Hey dear,

Thank God for today the 3^rd November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this new month in Jesus Name. Amen!

As we continue to think about this month (11/11) in light of the phrase: “The Eleventh hour” i.e. we experiencing some last minute move of God and the Word “Suddenly” i.e. we experiencing some unexpected and sudden move of God in our situation at this 11^th hour. Let’s look at the scripture in the book of Acts 2 vs. 2 – 3 – And SUDDENLY there came from the sky a sound as of a strong rushing blast of wind. This filled the whole house where they were sitting; and they saw tongues of what looked like fire distributing themselves over the assembly, and on the head of each person a tongue alighted.
This scripture says: And Suddenly – the disciples experienced a sudden move of God in the upper room and the whole room was filled with the presence/power of God and from that moment each person never remained the same.

With this same unction – I declare this new day: And suddenly… we will experience our 11^th hour miracle. And suddenly… a door of opportunity will be opened for us. And suddenly… we will experience a way out of no way in that situation. And suddenly… we will experience a bountiful harvest in those places we have sown. And suddenly… every chains (stronghold) preventing us from moving to our next level will be removed. And suddenly… we will experience a divine connection. And suddenly… we will experience a new beginning in our job/career/ministry/business. And suddenly… we will experience the touch from God that will change our life forever.

My dear! Let’s be encouraged and expectant as we continue in this season as – we are about to experience a sudden and unexpected move of God in our live at this 11^th hour (11/2011).

Enjoy a blessed and highly favored day.

Hey dear,

Thank God for today the 2nd day November 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made. May we experience some “last minute moves” in our life this new month in Jesus Name. Amen!

As I continue to think about this month (11/11) in light of the phrase: “The Eleventh hour” i.e. we experiencing some last minute move of God; the word “suddenly” (unexpectedly) springs to my mind. The scripture in the book of Isaiah 48 vs.3 says I have declared the former things from of old; yea, they went forth out of My mouth, and I announced them; SUDDENLY I did them, and they came to pass.
The Word of the Lord coming to us today is that: God who does things suddenly i.e. without warning is ready to take the center stage of our life; and when He comes in everything must align with His plan and purpose for our life. My dear! I want you to be expectant of some sudden occurrences from the God of “suddenly” this new month. Be prepared for a sudden move of the God in your ministry, marriage, career, business etc. Be expectant of the sudden disruption to every plan of the enemy as God takes over. Be ready for the sudden move of God in that situation that you and people have been tagged “impossible”. Be expectant and wait in anticipation of that 11th hour miracle that God is going to do in your relationships this season. Be prepared for a sudden harvest experience in those areas that you have sown – because seed time and harvest will never cease. God of “suddenly”…..is ready to do some unexpected things in our life so let’s continue to believe and be expectant of the sudden move of God in our situation at this 11th hour (11/2011)

Happy New month – The 11th hour

Hey dear,

Thank God for today the 1st day November 2011: the 11th month of the year 2011 – let’s rejoice and be glad in this new month & day that the Lord has made.

As I was thinking about this new month (11/11) the phrase: “The Eleventh hour” came to mind – 11th hour means the last minute – at the last possible time. People say things like “I turned the report in at the 11th hour”… just before the absolute deadline or “I made the decision at the 11th hour”… as late as possible.

In bible terms, the Eleventh hour is thought to allude to the parable of the laborers (Matthew 20:1-16), in which those workers hired at the 11th hour of a twelve-hour working day were paid the same amount as those who began in the first hour.With this in mind, I tag this 11th month of the year 2011 (11/11) as “a season of 11th hour miracles” – a time to experience ‘last minute’ intervention of God in our life & all that concerns us.

My dear! I agree with you as we start this month that – We will experience ‘last-minute’ miracles in the mighty Name of Jesus. We will experience the mighty move of God in that situation that people have thought is impossible. We will experience a ‘last-minute’ intervention in that ‘hopeless’ situation. We will experience a sudden change in that situation that we have been praying about. We will experience the healing power of God over that terminal sickness. We will experience a sudden breakthrough in our finances. We will experience the supernatural move of God in our relationship/ marriage/home. We will experience a sudden shift in that situation that we have been worrying about. We will experience a last-minute miracle in our job/ministry/business. We will see experience some unexpected doors of opportunity open unto us. We will experience major surprises this new month of November. We will experience harvest in places we have sown. We will experience some last-minute miracles in our life this season… in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen! My dear! God is ready to do all that He has purposed and planned for us so let’s believe and be expectant of those ‘last-minute’ moves in our life this new month of November. Happy New month once again — Rejoice as you wait in anticipation for those 11th hour miracles. Loving Regards, Temidayo

Itsalreadyalright

Hi Dear,

Thank God for the last day of October, Monday, the 31^st of October 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name! My prayer is that the blessing that God has prepared for us this new day will be ours in Jesus name. Amen!!
As we continue in this season – let’s be encourage ourselves again today as we look at the scripture in the book of James Chapter 1: 2 – 4:
2 Consider it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come at you from all sides. 3 You know that under pressure i.e. when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. 4 So don’t try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way.
The Word of the Lord to us today is that you should consider it joy when we are going through tests, challenges, trials because God has allowed them to come our way for a reason. We should rejoice and be glad in those experiences because it is under pressure that our faith-life shows it true color and is developed.
My dear! Don’t try to give up on life because of what you are facing now… Don’t try to work things out in the way you feel it should be… Don’t say I won’t even bother about this anymore maybe God doesn’t want this or that for me… Don’t let the situation push you to make decisions that you’ll forever regret.
But instead — let the situation cause you to wait patiently for the timing of God. Let this situation cause you to draw close to God knowing fully well that His plan for you are good. Let this situation cause you to wait on God for His perfect will. Let this situation cause you to develop a strong character as you wait on God. Let the situation cause you to desire to become matured in the Lord. Let this situation cause you to wait for the time of harvest of the seeds you have sown. Let this situation cause joy to well up inside of you knowing that Jehovah sees, Jehovah knows and Jehovah is in control.

Consider it great joy… and remain blessed as you continue in this great day/week and make sure you see everything that you are going through as an opportunity for joy.

Have a joy-FULL week!!

Be blessed as you listen to this lyrics: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oknOA3aOnJA – “Already Alright” – from her ‘Mountain High…Valley Low’ album.

My dear! I believe it’s already alright because of the crucifixion, death and resurrection of Jesus as He said “it is finished” = it’s already done = It’s already alright!!

As you go into this weekend – be encouraged because God is not a man that He should lie whatever He said He’ll do He’ll bring to pass – so itsalreadyalright#

Have a blessed weekend

You may not know how or when….

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Thursday, the 27^th of October 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name! My prayer is that the blessing that God has prepared for us this new day will be ours in Jesus name. Amen!!
As we continue in this season – let’s be encourage ourselves again today because God is not a man! He doesn’t tell lies or change His mind. God always keeps His promises. Let’s look at the Word in the book of 2 Kings 3 vs.17 – 18: 17 For thus says the Lord: You shall not see wind or rain, but this valley is going to fill up with water and your army and your animals will drink their fill. 18 This is easy for GOD to do.

The Word of the Lord came to Elisha that he should tell the people that they won’t hear the wind blow neither will they see the rain that is meant to fall in order for the valley to be filled. But the fact is that the valley (trenches/holes) that have been prepared shall be filled i.e. they won’t understand how the water got to the valley. Just like God is telling us today that He is about to fill the dry valley of our life with water. He about to do something supernatural in our life. He is about to make a way out of no way.
So my dear! The Word of encouragement to you today is that: “You may not know how, you may not know when — but the dry valley shall be filled”.

We may not understand how anything will happen but God will bring to pass everything He has spoken concerning us. We may not see the way out in that difficult situation but God is working to bring us a perfect end. We may not understand what is happening about our marital life but God is working behind the scene. We may not know how that sickness will be healed but Jehovah Ropheka/Rapha will bring it to pass. We may not see how that breakthrough in business will come about but it will happen. We may not know how that promotion will happen at work but it will definitely come to pass. We may not understand our financial situation at the moment but Jehovah Jireh is making a way. We may not know how, we may not know when… but the faithful One will do it.
Be blessed as you go into this great day, remember you may not know how or when but know this for sure: “your valley shall be filled again”

Loving regards

Joy Has Come

Hi Dear,Thank God for today, Wednesday, the 26th of October 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off in Jesus Name! May God grant us the grace to continue to “hang in there” even in the face of all opposition. As we continue in this season – let’s be encouraged because God is not a man! He doesn’t tell lies or change His mind. God always keeps His promises. Today, let’s look at the Word of God in the book of Psalm 30:5b : The nights of crying your eyes out will give way to days of laughter (MSG) — Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. (AMP) — Weeping may go on all night, but joy comes with the morning (NLT)
My dear! you may look around you and see some things that’s making you cry… you may even have lost your joy over a particular situation… you may have a situation in your life that keeps challenging your faith… you may have something in your life that makes you sad any time you remember or think about it. But the Word of God to you today is that your joy is definitely coming in the morning: NOW!! TODAY!!
The truth about nature is that whenever there is night time (darkness) there is bound to be morning (daylight/). Just like you slept yesterday night and woke up into the daylight – a morning; so also it is that after a season of “darkness” everyone of us will experience “a morning” in our life.
My dear! Believe and agree with the Word that is coming to you today. Be encouraged today because your morning i.e. your joy has come: your morning of remembrance… your morning of favor… your morning of breakthrough… your morning of divine visitation… your morning of abundance… your morning of divine direction… your morning of deliverance… your morning of miracle… your morning of joy… your morning of divine intervention… your morning of new beginnings… has come.
Remain blessed as you continue in this day. No more crying! wipe your tears and start to walk in the light of this Word for your morning…your joy has come. NOW is your morning!!!

Loving Regards, Temidayo

Hi Dear,Thank God for today, Tuesday, the 25th of October 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off in Jesus Name! May God grant us the grace to continue to “hang in there” even in the face of all opposition. I just feel like encouraging someone (including myself) this bless day:
My dear! I want to tell you today that God loves you… I want you to know that Jehovah sees!

My dear! All you need to do is to “hang in there” in faith and you will see the hand of God upon your life as He fulfils His promise to you.

Hang in there! Hang in there! Hang in there!

Be blessed as you go into this NEW day with that assurance that God is in control, so hang in there!

#wordscattering#: Isaiah 3 vs. 10 – It is well!

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Wednesday, the 28^th of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name! My prayer today is that God will grant us the grace to continue to hang on in the face of all opposition… AMEN

Still considering G in D.E.L.I.G.H.T i.e. GodConnection in regards to the #SEED# and taking time to scatter the seed of the Word that we have gathered in our heart. Today let’s look at the scripture in the book of Isaiah 3 vs.10 which says: Say to the righteous that IT SHALL BE WELL with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their deeds (AMPL) – Tell those who do what is right that things will go well for them, because they will receive a reward for what they do (NCV) — I just feel like encouraging someone/myself today:
My dear! I want to let you know today that: It is well…all is well with you and everything that concerns you. I want you to know that Jehovah sees! Jehovah knows! and Jehovah is in control. I want you to know that God has a very great and good plan for you. I want you to know that ALL God has spoken concerning you and that situation will definitely come to pass. I want you to know that the best is yet to come. I want you to know that you are not a failure, neither are you cursed. I want you to know that you are a blessed child of God. I want you to understand that whatever you are going through right now is going to work out for your good purpose. I want you to know that God can never and will never leave you nor forsake you. I want you to know that God’s got your back. I want you to know that His grace is sufficient for you in every situation. I want you to know that God is beautiful for every situation. I want you to know that God’s timing is perfect. I want you to know that God will perfect ALL that concerns you (according to His will & purpose). I want you to know that all you are going through is to bring you to a perfect and expected end.

As we continue in this season – let’s hold on in faith as we wait to see the manifestation of the promises of God to us. Let’s take time to scatter & declare: It is well… It is well with me!

Note: Will be offline for the next couple of week. Remain blessed and highly favored.

#wordscattering#: John 14 vs. 1 – I refuse to be troubled!!

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Tuesday, the 27th of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

Still considering G in D.E.L.I.G.H.T i.e. GodConnection in regards to the #SEED# and taking time to scatter the seed of the Word that we have gathered in our heart. Today let’s look at the scripture in the book of John 14 verse 1 Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. (KJV) – Jesus said to his disciples, “Don’t be worried! Have faith in God and have faith in me. (CEV) – DO NOT let your hearts be troubled (distressed, agitated). You believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely on God; believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely also on Me. (AMPL)
This scripture give the account of the discussion that Jesus had with His disciples — when he was about to leave them. He was telling them not to allow their heart to be troubled. Because He knew that they will encounter a lot of trials andf tribulations when He departs from them. So He had to give them this word of affirmation — that they should not be afraid but have faith in God the Father and in Him (Jesus).
My dear! The Word of the Lord coming to us from this scripture today is that: we should not be troubled but have faith in God. Jesus is telling us not to be agitated about anything happening around us. He is telling us not to fret about what we will eat or drink or how we will pay the bills. Jesus is telling us not to allow anything to depress us. Jesus is telling us not to allow ourselves to be confused about any decision we need to make. He is telling us not to worry, no matter what the world might be throwing at us. Jesus is telling us not to be concerned about what will happen tomorrow. He is telling us not to let our heart be troubled. Jesus is telling us not to allow ourselves to be disturbed by what we hear or see. He is telling us not to allow our circumstance to stir up any form of fear in us. Jesus is telling us we should not allow any form of emotional disturbance in our life.
As we continue in this great day — let’s make a concious effort not to allow anything to trouble us — let’s scatter: “I refuse to be troubled!!”

#wordscattering# – Philippians 4:13 – I can do it!

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Thursday, the 22nd of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

Still considering G in D.E.L.I.G.H.T i.e. GodConnection in regards to the #SEED# and taking time to scatter the seed of the Word that we have gathered in our heart.

Today let’s look at the scripture in the book of Philippians 4:13 – I can do all things through Christ, because he gives me strength (NCV) – – I can do all this through him who gives me strength (NIV) — Whatever I have, wherever I am, I can make it through anything in the One who makes me who I am. (MSG)

Paul says He can do ALL things… not just the things he knows he has the ability to do… but ALL things. Even though he knew he wasn’t qualified or didn’t have all that it takes to do some things but Paul was adamant that he is able to do those things through Christ.

My dear! What is that thing before you that looks so difficult? What is that situation that looks like a mountain that it seems you can’t surmount?

The word coming to us today is that we can do ALL things through Christ that gives us strength. We can achieve everything that God has planned for us by His power. We can get to the top level in our career through Christ that enables us. We can grow spiritually through Christ that empowers us. We can know God better through the Holy Spirit that reveal God to us. We can walk in the fulness of God in every area of our life through Christ that infuses inner strength. We are equal to any task because of the strength that comes through Christ. We can study and be successful in that examination because of the grace of God. We can prosper financially through Christ that gives us those business ideas. We can do those things that we thought were too difficult through Christ. We can make it in life through Christ who has made us who we are in God.

Be blessed as you go into this new day and let’s continue to scatter this phrase: I____(your name) can do it! I can do ALL things through Christ.

Loving Regards,

#wordscattering# – Matthew 17:20 – Speak to the mountain!

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Wednesday, the 21st of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

Still considering G in D.E.L.I.G.H.T i.e. GodConnection in regards to the #SEED# and taking time to scatter the seed of the Word that we have gathered in our heart.

We started looking at the mountain and how every mountain will become a plain by the power (in the presence) of God. Today let’s look at another scripture that talk about mountain in the book of Matthew 17:20 – He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” (NIV)

In this scripture, Jesus was telling the disciples (and you & I) that: if we can just have a lil’bit of faith (even as small as a mustard seed) – then we can actually say to the mountain: Move! and it will move. If we can exercise our faith and decree things then whatsoever we say will come to pass. If we can open our mouth and speak the Word by faith then nothing (= NO thing) will be impossible for us. Today, let’s practice scattering this scripture by commanding some mountains to move and expect to see the manifestation of what we say.

So now, by faith let’s say – You mountain of sickness – I command you to move now in Jesus name. You mountain of poverty move now. You mountain of delay, move now in Jesus name. You mountain of frustration/confusion, move now. You mountain of non-achievement, move now in Jesus name. You mountain of lack/insufficiency, move now. You mountain of stagnancy, move now in Jesus name. You mountain of failure, move now. You mountain, hindering the propagation of the gospel, move now in Jesus name. You mountain of barrenness, move now in Jesus name. You mountain of prayerlessness, move now. You mountain _____ (add another), move now in the mighty Name of Jesus….Amen!

As we continue this day/week/month/year — Let’s continue to exercise our faith by scattering the phrase: You mountain___ move from here now!

Have a victorious day!

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

#wordscattering# – Zech 4 vs. 6 -7 – Who are you, O mountain?

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Tuesday, the 20th of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

Today let’s look further at the scripture in the book of Zechariah Chapter 4 verses 6 & 7 says:

7For who are you, O great mountain [of human obstacles]? Before Zerubbabel [who with Joshua had led the return of the exiles from Babylon and was undertaking the rebuilding of the temple, before him] you shall become a plain [a mere molehill]! And he shall bring forth the finishing gable stone [of the new temple] with loud shoutings of the people, crying, Grace, grace to it! (AMPL)

7 ‘So, big mountain, who do you think you are? Next to Zerubbabel you’re nothing but a molehill. He’ll proceed to set the Cornerstone in place, accompanied by cheers: Yes! Yes! Do it!'” (MSG)

7 “Who are you, big mountain? In front of Zerubbabel you will become flat land, and he will bring out the topmost stone, shouting, ‘It’s beautiful! It’s beautiful!’ ” (NCV)

The angel continues his discussion with Zechariah and with reference to the mountain that was before Zerubbabel — Who are you, O mountain? The mountains being referred to here represent challenges & oppositions that was before Zerubbabel as he was trying to built the temple. The word to Zerubbabel was that no matter how big the mountain is — it will become a plain by God’s grace— it is by God’s Spirit that the Temple will be completed. And that Zerubbabel should not fear anything. It will be done through God’s help.

My dear! This is the word coming to us as well today – Who are you, O mountain? – Who are you, O financial hardship? Who are you, O sickness? Who are you, O joblessness? Who are you, O marital problem? Who are you, O failure? Who are you, O mountain ____? (add another)…. you will become a plain by the power of the Holy Spirit.

As we go into this day & week – let’s continue to scatter: Who are you, O mountain?… by the power of the Holy Spirit every mountain before us will be removed.

Enjoy a victorious day in the presence of the Lord.

Loving Regards,

#wordscattering# – Zech 4 vs. 6 – By His Spirit….

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Monday, the 19th of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

Today let’s look at the Book of Zechariah Chapter 4 – In this scripture the angel of the Lord was discussing the vision of the gold lampstand and two olive trees with Zechariah – but Zechariah couldn’t really understand what these symbols meant. The angel’s response is highlighted in verse 6: This [addition of the bowl to the candlestick, causing it to yield a ceaseless supply of oil from the olive trees] is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but BY MY SPIRIT, says the Lord of hosts (AMPL)

My dear! This Word of the Lord coming to us today is that: It is not by our power nor by our might… but by the Spirit of the Lord. Many people believe that to survive in this world a person must be tough, strong, unbending, and harsh. But God says: Not by force, nor by strength, but by My Spirit!

This phrase – “By my Spirit” – means: it’s only through God’s Spirit that anything of lasting value is accomplished. It’s through God”s Spirit that we receive the grace (undeserved favor) that we need in life. God is the One who gives the inspiration & wisdom to we need to succeed in all that we lay our hands upon. God is the One who gives us the strength to go through those difficult times. God is the One who opens the door that no one else can open. God is the One who supplies the resources to go through this opened door. God is the One who gives us the favor & strength we need to keep this door of opportunity opened.

As we continue in this month of September — let’s be determined not to trust only in our strength and abilities – but depend on God (= the power of His Spirit).

Have a Spirit-filled week/day and let’s continue to scatter: By His Spirit…. I have the ability to do all things!!

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

Hey TGIFriday!,

Thank God for today, Friday, the 16th of September 2011 – a new month that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because Jehovah Rehoboth will make a way for us where there looks to be no way this season in Jesus Name!

We are taking time to actually scatter the seed of the Word that we have gathered in our heart as we continue to consider the G in D.E.L.I.G.H.T i.e. GodConnection in regards to the #SEED#.

As we go into this weekend – let’s be blessed as we listen to the lyrics of this song – #He’sable# by Darwin Hobb (in Voice of Unity) — http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIAGWndg2Fw

[youtube]YIAGWndg2Fw[/youtube]

My dear! Let’s go into this weekend rejoicing because…God is able to do just what He says He would do. God is going to fulfill every promise He has made to us. God is going to do whatsoever He has said He will do. As the scripture in the book of Number 23: 19 says: “God is not a man, that He should lie, nor the son of man, that He should change his mind. Does He speak and then not act? Does He speak and then not fulfill”.

Let’s go into this weekend with expectation because #He’sable# – Let’s continue to hold on to His promise because #He’sable# – Let’s not give us on God because #He’sable# – Let’s go into this new day/weekend scattering/declaring: #Godisable#

Enjoy a glorious day and weekend.

#wordscattering# – What is God saying specifically 2 U?

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Thursday, the 15th of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

We have taken some time to look at the account of what the LORD said to the people of Israel and how He brought all the promises He made to them to pass (using Isaiah 43 & Exodus 14)

Today, I want us to ask ourselves this question: What is God saying specifically to me as an individual? What promise has God made to me? What is the scripture that I’m holding on to? What is that part of the scripture that has brought me through so far? What is that thing that I am believing God to do in my life? What is the prophetic word that I have received from God? What is the promise God gave me at the beginning of the year that is still yet to be fulfilled? What is the seed of the Word that I am scattering (confessing)?

My dear! The Word of encouragement coming to us today is that: What God is saying specifically to U & I will definitely come to pass — because the scripture in the book of Number 23: 19 says: “God is not a man, that He should lie, nor the son of man, that He should change his mind. Does He speak and then not act? Does He speak and then not fulfill”

As we continue in this season — let make sure we are scattering the seed of the Word = the scripture/promise that God has made to us. And let’s be expectant of the fulfillment of this promise.

Have a blessed and highly favored day!

Loving Regards,

#wordscattering# – Isaiah 43:19 – Something new!

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Wednesday, the 14th of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

Today let’s look at some of the other things that God is saying as highlighted in the book Isaiah 43 vs 19 – “See I am doing a new thing!… I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wastelands.

My dear! What is the Lord saying today? – He is saying to you and I that: He is doing something new (A new thing! A new way!) — He is doing some new things in the spiritual realm that is about to manifest in the physical. He is making ways where there seems to be no way. He is doing some “humanly impossible” things. He is manifesting His healing power in cases that have been called “terminal”. He is opening doors that seems to have been securely locked by human security. He is doing the impossible. He is stepping into that situation that people have said is “hopeless”. He is making some divine connections in the spirit realm that will come to light this season. He is bringing answers to some specific questions that we have been asking for a long time. He is doing brand new things in our life and life of our loved ones.

My dear! as we go into this new day – let’s scatter and declare – I’m walking in newness of life! – because God is doing a new thing in my life now.

Enjoy this new life!

Loving Regards,

#wordscattering# – Isaiah 43:18 – Forget the past!

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Tuesday, the 13th of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

Yesterday we started looking at the scripture in the book of Isaiah Chapter 43 vs. 16: “This is what the LORD says….” And we took time to understand who the LORD who is saying these things. Let’s continue today by looking at some of the things the LORD is saying – as highlighted in verse 18: “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past”

So what is the Lord saying to us today? – The LORD is saying to you and I that we should – Forget the past!!

My dear! The LORD is saying: Forget all that has happened to you in the past. He is saying: let go of that pain and hurt. He is saying: Take your eyes off those problems and fix your eyes on Jesus. He is saying: Forgive that person that has hurt you. He is saying; Don’t allow your past experiences to stop you from moving forward. He is saying: Don’t allow past failures/mistakes to prevent you from stepping out in faith. He is saying: Don’t allow the outcome of that business proposal to stop you from taking this new opportunity. He is saying: Don’t allow the experience of past relationship stop you from trusting/loving again. He is saying: Don’t allow what you have been through in life to hinder you from being the best that God has created you to be.

My dear! let’s take time to scatter this phrase: I forget the past!… and let’s begin to move forward in the power and might of the Lord.

Have a victorious week!

#wordscattering# Isaiah 43:16 -Who is the LORD?

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Monday, the 12th of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

As we continue in this month of September – still considering G in D.E.L.I.G.H.T i.e. GodConnection in regards to the #SEED# and taking time to scatter the seed of the Word that we have gathered in our heart. The scripture in the book of Isaiah Chapter 43 verse 16a says: This is what the LORD says….(NIV)

Before we look at what the Lord says –I want us to pause and ask this question: Who is the LORD that is saying these things? Verses16b & 17 goes on to give us a list that helps to understand the LORD who is saying these things in this scripture.

1). He is the LORD who made a way through the waters. 2). He is the LORD who made a dry path through the mighty waters (Red sea) for the Israelites to walk through. 3). He is the LORD who drowned the mighty army of Egypt and their chariots & horses into the sea. 4). He is the LORD who caused destruction to come upon the enemies of the people of Israel.

So I believe this experience that the Israelites had with the Egyptians at the Red sea (full details in Exodus Chapter 14) will cause them to say: The Lord is our way-maker… The Lord is our deliverer… The Lord is our present help in the time of need… The Lord is our Jehovah Nissi… The Lord is the I AM that I AM.. The Lord is our mighty man in battle… The Lord is the El Shaddai… (etcetera).

The question that is coming to you & I this new day is – Who is the LORD to us? Through all our life experiences: What can we say the Lord is to us? With all the situation that we been through: Who can we say the Lord has been to us?

My dear! Let’s take some time to identify: Who the Lord is to us – And as we continue in this new day, let’s scatter/declare all that God is, God has been and God will continue to be… to us with joy and thanksgiving in our heart.

Enjoy a thank-FULL day/week/month!

#Restored#

Hey TGIFriday!,

Thank God for today, Friday, the 9th of September 2011 – a new month that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because Jehovah Rehoboth will make a way for us where there looks to be no way this season in Jesus Name!

We are taking time to actually scatter the seed of the Word that we have gathered in our heart as we continue to consider the G in D.E.L.I.G.H.T i.e. GodConnection in regards to the #SEED#.

As we go into this new month/weekend – let’s be blessed as we listen to the lyrics of this song – #Restored# by J. Moss — http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXRQYV3Y-JQ

[youtube]RXRQYV3Y-JQ[/youtube]

My dear! We have been redeemed… we have been delivered… we have been set free… by the blood. We are free from all forms of guilt and shame. We are free from every form of bondage, shackles, chains, stronghold and struggles of life, We are restored!

Let’s go into this weekend rejoicing for the freedom we have in Christ Jesus – let’s glorify God for the restoration of everything we have lost (Joel 2:25)

Enjoy a “restored” day and weekend.

#wordscattering# – Isaiah 43:5&6 – He will restore…

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Thursday, the 8th of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the east and gather you from the west. I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’ and to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’ Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth— (NIV)

Here God continues to re-affirm to the people of Israel that His mercies and loving-kindness towards them are new every morning. He is telling them not to be afraid of all they have experienced so far because He is with them. God went on to declare that He was going to bring their offspring from the East & West and commanded the North and South to give up what belongs to them. God promised to restore the people of Israel and all that concerns them — by fulfilling the covenant He made with them and their descendants.

My dear! As we continue in this new month – I decree a restoration of everything that we have lost. I declare restoration of lost years/time in every area of our life. I command the North and South to give up all that the Lord has destined for us. I decree every lost dream/vision/ministry be restored this season. I declare restoration of joy & peace that passes human understanding. I command restoration of life to all our physical & spiritual children. I decree a restoration of everything the enemy has stolen by the power of the blood of Jesus.. in Jesus name we pray. Amen!!

As we continue in this new day – let’s scatter: “I am restored….” because the God – Restorer of souls has promised.

Enjoy a victorious September!

Loving Regards,

#wordscattering# – Isaiah 43:3&4 – He will give people….

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Wednesday, the 7th of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

The scripture in the book of Isaiah Chapter 43 verses 3&4 says:

Because I am God, your personal God, The Holy of Israel, your Savior. I paid a huge price for you: all of Egypt, with rich Cush and Seba thrown in! That’s how much you mean to me! That’s how much I love you! I will give people in exchange for you, I will trade the lives of others because you are precious to me. You are honored and I love you (MSG)

God is saying because He has paid a huge price for the people of Israel – there is no way He will allow anything bad to happen to them. God is saying rather than evil to befall them – He will allow other people to go through in their place.

The Word of God coming to us today is: I will give people…!! because we are so precious to God and He has redeemed us with a huge price (blood of Jesus). So rather than God allowing anything bad to happen to us, He will allow something else to happen. Rather than watch us destroy ourselves by our own actions and ignorance, He will intervene divinely. Rather than God allowing the cares of this world/lust of the flesh & eyes/issues of life to weigh us down and stop us from fulfilling our destiny, He will step in to rescue and deliver us. Rather than God allowing evil to come upon us, He will trade people/situation/things in exchange for us.

My dear! This understanding should actually give us confidence and cause us to rejoice and be glad – knowing that God understands everything we are going through right now. Everything that we have gone through has a reason. Everything we might be going through will work out for good for us. Everything that happens to us on a daily basis is working towards the fulfillment of this scripture.

Let’s be encouraged and with confidence let’s scatter this phrase: No evil shall befall me… because God has promised to give people/things/situation in exchange for me.

Have a victorious day!

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

#wordscattering# – Isaiah 43: 1-2 – He is with me!!

Hi Dear,

Thank God for today, Tuesday, the 6th of September 2011 – a new day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

As we continue in this month of September – still considering G in D.E.L.I.G.H.T i.e. GodConnection in regards to the #SEED# and taking time to scatter the seed of the Word that we have gathered in our heart. Let’s look at some verses in the book of Isaiah Chapter 43.

The preceding chapter (42) ended with God complaining about the spiritual state of his people – Israel. But in this chapter (43) we see God exhibiting his great mercy and loving-kindness to the people despite their spiritual failure.

Verse 1 & 2 says: But now, O Jacob, listen to the Lord who created you. – the one who formed you says, “Do not be afraid, for I have redeemed you. I have called you by name; you are mine. When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you (NLT) – God, (the Creator) was telling the people not to be afraid because they have been redeemed. And He has called and adopted them as His own (children). He promised to be with them so they should not be afraid.

The Word of encouragement coming from the throne of grace to you & I today is — I will be with you!! Emmanuel, Our God says: I will be with you!!

My dear! God is telling us He will be with us when we go through difficulties He will guide us through the thick and thin of life. He will be with us through the storms of life. He will protect us as we go through the “heat” of life. He will take us through every issues that life throws at us. He will guide us step by step so the situation will not consume us physically and spiritually. He will take us through the “ups and downs” of life and bring us out stronger at the end.

My dear! let’s be encouraged knowing that no matter what we are going through – Emmanuel, Our God has promised to be with us. So let’s continue to scatter: God is with me…..!

Have a blessed day!

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

#Godwillmakeaway#

Hey dear,

Happy New Month!! Happy New September!

Thank God for today, Thursday, the 1st of September 2011 – a new month that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because our expectation shall not be cut off this month in Jesus Name!

As we start this new month, we are still considering G in D.E.L.I.G.H.T i.e. GodConnection in regards to the #SEED# — and we are taking time to scatter the seed of the Word that we have gathered in our heart. The scripture in the book of Genesis Chapter 26:22 says 22 abandoning that one, Isaac moved on and dug another well. This time there was no dispute over it, so Isaac named the place REHOBOTH (which means “open space”), for he said, “At last the LORD has created enough space for us to prosper in this land.

We are understand from this scripture that after Isaac moved away from well Ezek & Sitnah because of the quarreling and accusation about the water, he and his men dug a well again. But this time, no one opposed them and they named the place Rehoboth. We see that Isaac and and his men didn’t give up on digging wells. With all the opposition from the people, they continued to make effort believing that one day they will dig a well that no one will contend with.

The Word of God coming to us this 1st day is September is that: We must expect our Rehoboth! We must expect God to make room i.e. make a way for us this new month of September.

My dear! As we start this new month, I declare that we are walking into our Rehoboth. I decree that a way will be made where there looks like there is no way this month. I declare that we have all that we need to walk in abundance this month. I decree that new room/space i.e. new opportunity is coming our way each day of this month. I declare that we have “enough space” i.e. wisdom, resources, finances that we need in order to prosper in all that we lay our hand upon this month of September.

Let’s go into this new month with great expectation — knowing that we have come to our “Rehoboth” – place of prosperity… place of abundance!

Enjoy a glorious September!

Loving Regards,

#WordScattering# – Genesis 26 vs. 21- Expect accusation!!

Hi Dear,

Thank God for Wednesday, the 31st of August 2011 – the last day of August. Thank God it’s a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord. Let’s rejoice & be glad because now is the set time for a new beginning. Praise God…Hallelujah!

We have been considering the G in D.E.L.I.G.H.T i.e. GodConnection in regards to the #SEED# — and how it’s important to scatter the seed of the Word that we have gathered in our heart.

Let’s continue this series of #WordScattering# by considering the story of Isaac and the conflict over the dug well (water) in the book of Genesis Chapter 26 – vs.21 says: ²¹Isaac’s men then dug another well, but again there was a dispute over it. So Isaac named it Sitnah (which means “accusation”).

After being forced to move away from well “Ezek” – Isaac’s men had a similar encounter when they dug another well in Sitnah – their new location. The people in this new neighborhood accused them and were hostile to them and they had to move again.

My dear! As we scatter the Word and wait for the physical manifestation – we must expect accusation!! We must expect the “accuser of the brethren” (the devil) to accuse us before God (Rev.12vs 10). We must expect the devil will try to bring up iniquity/wrongdoing/sin. We must expect that the devil will try to tell us how we dont deserve the blessings of God. We must expect the enemy to attack our heart and conscience. We must expect the enemy will want to bring up our past. We must expect the enemy will try to make us walk in guilt and shame. We must expect satan will try to stand to oppose us in the presence of God (Zech 3vs. 1)

But we thank God because Jesus is our defense attorney – He seats at the right hand of God interceding for us. We thank God for the blood of Jesus which answers all accusations of the devil. We thank God for the GRACE.. the undeserved favor that we enjoy through our Savior Jesus Christ. We thank God because it is this grace that qualifies us for the blessing of God.

As we go into this new day — let’s remember it’s by grace that we are saved through our faith in Jesus and not by works. And the “accuser” – the devil has been defeated at the cross of Calvary.

Enjoy an “accuse-free” day/seasonJ!

Loving Regards,

THeReIsNoNeLiKeYoU!!

Hey Dear, TGIFriday!

Thank God for the 27^th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

Be blessed as you listen to the lyrics of the song: “There Is None Like You” by Stephen Hurd – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhJM19ljgOo

My dear! Let’s go into the weekend with joy knowing that: There is none like our God — No one can touch our life like the Lord. No one can change our life like God. No one can influence us like the Lord. So let’s take time to ascribe all the glory to the King of kings and the Lord of lords because, there is indeed nobody like Our God!! There is no one like Jehovah!! THeReIsNoNeLiKeYoU!!

Have a memorable weekend!

Under the influence – “Confession”

Hey Dear,

Thank God for Thursday, the 26th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue with the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – let’s look further at Zechariah – John the Baptist’s father in Luke 1.

In the latter part of this chapter (in vs. 64, 67), And at once his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he began to speak, blessing and praising and thanking God……Now Zachariah his father was filled with and controlled by the Holy Spirit and prophesied, saying…. — we were told that instantly Zechariah could speak again, and he began praising God. He was then filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied. This means, when Zechariah was filled and controlled by the Holy Spirit, then he began to make some confessions and decreed the prophetic words recorded in verse 68 to 79.

My dear! The Word coming to us from this scripture is that: Under the influence of the Holy Spirit – the power for “positive’ confession is released….The power to confess the Word of God with boldness is released. Under the influence of the Holy Spirit — There is prophetic power. There is power to decree a thing and see it established. There is power to speak with authority. There is power to remember the faithfulness of God. There is power to bring God to remembrance of His covenant to us. There is power to bring life out of a dead situation. There is power to speak light into the darkness around us. There is power to tread upon serpent and scorpions (i.e dangerous situation). There is power to decree that: ”no weapon of the enemy fashioned against us shall prosper”. There is power to decree that: “nothing shall be impossible with God”. There is power to decree: “peace be still’ to those storms in our life. There’s power to decree that: “we are more than conqueror through Christ…”. There is power to decree in the name of Jesus and see what we say come to pass.

As we continue in this season — let’s seek to be under the influence of the Holy Spirit… let’s make a conscious decision to walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh… let’s allow the Holy Spirit to control our actions/ways– so that we will experience the power of confession in our life.

Have a Spirit-filled day!!

Under the influence – “Circumcision”

Hey Dear,

Thank God for Wednesday, the 25th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His grace & favor. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue with the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} — an example of another person who was under the influence /control of the Holy Spirit is Elizabeth’s husband – Zechariah, who the angel appeared to in the early verses of Luke Chapter 1 telling him about the birth of John the Baptist. In verses 64 and 67, the scriptures says: And at once his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he began to speak, blessing and praising and thanking God……Now Zachariah his father was filled with and controlled by the Holy Spirit and prophesied, saying….

We see from the beginning of the book of Luke that Zechariah had been dumb since the conception of John the Baptist. But when the 8th day (the day of circumcision) came — his mouth was opened, his tongue was loosed and he was filled with the power of the Holy Spirit.

In the old testament, circumcision was instituted by God to signify the covenant with Abraham. And circumcision of a child has been known to indicate the parents giving this child to God, which signifies that the child would be committed to serve God alone. The cutting of the foreskin of the male child illustrated they were severing his identity or relationship with the world. We see in this story it was the day that Zechariah decided he was going to give his only son to serve God (circumcise) that his voice was restored and the anointing of the Holy Spirit was released upon him.

My dear! The Word of the Lord coming to us this new day is that: Circumcision can bring the power of the Holy Spirit…. i.e. giving of everything we have to signify we are totally committed to God will bring us under the influence of the Holy Spirit. Giving of our seed to the work of the Kingdom will bring us under the influence of the Holy Spirit. Giving of our worship to the One who created all things will bring us under the influence of the Holy Spirit. Giving of our time to serve God/others will bring us under the influence of the Holy Spirit. Aligning of our way of life with the way/word of God (holiness) will bring us under the influence of the Holy Spirit. Giving of our resources, gifts & talents to the service of God will bring us under the influence of the Holy Spirit.

As we continue to seek to delight in God — let’s ask ourselves: what do I need to circumcise? what do I need to give up to show my total commitment to God?

Have a gr8 circumcision season!!

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

Under the influence – “Contagious”

Hey Dear,

Thank God for Tuesday, the 24th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue with the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – let’s look at example of another person who were under the influence /control of the Holy Spirit. Mary’s cousin: Elizabeth, who the bible records was also pregnant around the same time in Luke 1 Chapter 41 says: And it occurred that when Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with and controlled by the Holy Spirit. Here we are told that when Mary visited Elizabeth and as she greeted her, the baby in Elizabeth’s womb leaped and Elizabeth was filled with and controlled by the Holy Spirit. This means Mary’s contact with Elizabeth brought her under the influence of the Holy Spirit. And we were told she later gave birth to a great man of God (John the Baptist).

My dear! The Word of the Lord coming to us from this scripture is that: Power of the Holy Spirit is contagious. When we are under the influence of the Holy Spirit, our actions can be contagious. When we are under the influence of the Holy Spirit, there can be divine impartation. The power of the Holy Spirit can be imparted on another through prayers of those that are under the influence. The power of the Holy Spirit can be transferred through contact with people who are in a close/intimate relationship with God. The power of the Holy Spirit can be imparted through the laying on of hands by those who are anointed. The power of the Holy Spirit can be imparted by listening to the teachings of a person who is under the influence of the Holy Spirit. The power of the Holy Spirit can be transferred by spending time in fellowship with spirit-filled believers. As we continue to seek to delight in God — the questions we need to ask ourselves is that: Are we under the influence of the Holy Spirit? And if we are then — How contagious are we?

Have a gr8 ”contagious” week!

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

Under the influence – “Conception”

Hey Dear,

Thank God for Monday 23rd day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue with the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} — For the next couple of weeks, I want us to look at specific example of people who were under the influence/control of the Holy Spirit as recorded in the bible. The 1st person will be Mary: the biological mother of Jesus Christ our Savior — Luke Chapter 1 vs. 35 says: 35 The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the baby to be born will be holy, and he will be called the Son of God.This is the response that the Angel gave to the conversation with Mary in the preceding verses — about her conceiving and giving birth to a son. Mary was confused and wondering how she was going to be pregnant as she was a virgin…never had any intimate relationship with a man. The angel explained to her that the conception was going to be by the power of the Holy Spirit overshadowing her. And she was going to give birth to the Savior of the whole world.

My dear! The word of the of the Lord coming to us this new day is that – There’s is “conception” as we walk under the influence of the Holy Spirit…i.e. we continue to allow the Holy Spirit to control us, we will conceive (be pregnant) and bring forth a “baby” (ideas/visions/dreams). Under the influence of the Holy Spirit – there is power to create something great out of something small. Under the influence of the Holy Spirit – there is power for “witty inventions”. Under the influence of the Holy Spirit – there is power to bring life to a dead situation. Under the influence of the Holy Spirit – there is power to conceive a big tree (idea) out of a small seed (thought). Under the influence of the Holy Spirit – there is power to conceive a divine idea that will benefit our generation. Under the influence of the Holy Spirit – there is power to conceive and bring forth our destiny/purpose in life.

My prayer as we seek to delight in God is that — we will continue to allow the Holy Spirit to control our thoughts & actions in all that we do.

Enjoy your conception season!!

No other choice…but to BeLiEVe!!

Hey Dear, TGIFriday!

Thank God for the 20^th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

Still looking at the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – for us to delight in God we must be “under the influence” of the Holy Spirit. We must make a decision to allow the Holy Spirit to control our actions. Be blessed as you listen to the lyrics of the song: “No other choice” by Tye Tribbett – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVZqEZflupI

My dear! Let’s go into the weekend knowing that: We have no other choice but to trust God….We have no other choice but to believe in the One who is able to guide and lead us in the path we should go… We have no other choice but to BeLiEVe the promise God has made to us.

Have a faith-filled and victorious week.

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 19^th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue with the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – we said for us to delight in God we must be “under the influence” of the Holy Spirit… allow the Holy Spirit to exhibit His attributes in our life.

Still looking at the Holy Spirit – influencing us as our Teacher (spiritual). Just as school teachers are known to give tests/examinations in order to assess the level of knowledge of a student; so our spiritual Teacher allows us to go through test and trials in order to see how much we know & believe the promises of God to us.

So my dear! Are you going through a test/trial? Are you getting fed up with the way things are happening around us? Have you come to a point where you want to give up? Are you at a point where you don’t even know where to turn to? Are you at a point where it seems everyone has left you? Have you come to a place where you are wondering if this situation will ever change/get better? Are you at a point where you don’t even know what to do? Are you at a point when you feel God has left you? Are you thinking life is too hard and unfair because of the way things are? Are you becoming so frustrated about life because things are not going as planned? Are you asking why, why, why? Are you wondering if life is worth all the trouble? Are you going through hard times?

The Word of encouragement to us today that: the Holy Spirit- our teacher & test-giver is with us. He is here to comfort, to strengthen and to encourage us through our tests & trials. The Holy Spirit is with us, so all we need to do is to seek His help in our difficult times. The Holy Spirit is with us to give us grace to help us in our time of need. The Holy Spirit is with us to help us to live as a world overcomer.

Be blessed as you go into this new day and my prayer today is that we will experience the power of the Holy Spirit in our situation as we cry out to Him.

Have a spirit filled day

Loving Regards,

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 18^th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

May we experience the power of the Holy Spirit in a new way this month of May in Jesus Name..Amen! Let’s continue with the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – as we said for us to delight in God we must be “under the influence” of the Holy Spirit… allow the Holy Spirit to exhibit His attributes in our life. Let’s look at the scripture in the book of 1^st Corinthians 2 : 9 & 10 –However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived”— the things God has prepared for those who love him— these are the things God has revealed to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.
In this scripture, Paul is making the people of Corinth to understand that God has a purpose and great plan for them. A plan that no eye has seen. A plan that no ear has heard. A plan that no one can comprehend. A plan that can never been imagined. A plan that no man can understand. But he went on to explain that this great plan is only revealed through & by the Holy Spirit as it is the Holy Spirit who searches and digs deep into the heart of God and then brings out into the open (or reveals) to us what God has planned for us.
My dear! the word coming to us as we continue to seek to delight in the Lord is that: We should allow the Holy Spirit to teach us by revelation. The Holy Spirit searches deep into the heart of God then reveals the mind of God to us. The Holy Spirit will reveals the divine will of God to us. The Holy Spirit will enable us to see and understand God’s perfect plan for our life. The Holy Spirit will open our spiritual eyes to see what God has in store for us as we wait on Him this year.

As we continue seek to delight in the Lord – let’s seek to develop a relationship with the Him so He will reveal the mind of God to us in Jesus name.. Amen!!

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 17th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

May we experience God’s grace (undeserved favor) in a greater dimension, as we continue to believe and delight in the Lord this year this month of May in Jesus Name..Amen!

Let’s continue with the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – as we said for us to delight in God we must be “under the influence” of the Holy Spirit… allow the Holy Spirit to exhibit His attributes in our life. Let’s look at the scripture in the book of Luke Chapter 12 :11 & 12: And when they bring you before the synagogues and the magistrates and the authorities, do not be anxious [beforehand] how you shall reply in defense or what you are to say. For the Holy Spirit will TEACH you in that very hour and moment what [you] ought to say (AMPL)

In this scripture, Jesus was telling the disciples that there will be a time they will be brought before the authority in order for them to defend the gospel (what they believe). But that they should not be bothered about what they will say to justify themselves when they are being questioned. Because the Holy Spirit will teach them at that very moment – what they should say.

My dear! the word coming to us as we continue to seek to delight in the Lord is that: we shouldn’t be anxious or worried about what or how we will respond in any situation because the Holy Spirit is our TEACHER.

Just like a teacher — The Holy Spirit is the One who imparts the wisdom we need in order to know what to say when we are before a panel. The Holy Spirit is the One who will instruct us on how to respond when we are in a compromising situation.. The Holy Spirit is the One who will teach us how to answer when we are being accused of what we didn’t do. The Holy Spirit is the One who will give us the right words to say — in that discussion/meeting, in that court case, to that difficult boss/colleague.. etc. The Holy Spirit is the One who will point out what we need to know and say in every situation we face.

As we continue seek to delight in the Lord – let’s be encouraged in all that we might be facing knowing that the Holy Spirit has been sent to us to teach and guide us.

Enjoy a spirit-led day/week!!

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 16th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

May we experience God’s grace (undeserved favor) in a greater dimension, as we continue to believe and delight in the Lord this year this month of May in Jesus Name..Amen!

Let’s look at another attribute of the Holy Spirit as highlighted in Chapter 14:26 –But the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name [in My place, to represent Me and act on My behalf], He will TEACH you ALL things. And He will cause you to recall (will remind you of, bring to your remembrance) everything I have told you. (AMP) — But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will be your TEACHER in all things and will put you in mind of everything I have said to you (BBE)

In this scripture, Jesus is telling His disciples that the Holy Spirit whom God the Father will send to act on His behalf will be like a teacher… to teach them ALL things. So just in case there are some things that the disciples don’t really understand in all the teaching Jesus has shared with them. The Holy Spirit was going to be there to teach and bring clarity to everything and anything they need to know about life.

My dear! The Word coming to us today is that: For us to delight in God, we must allow the Holy Spirit (the influencer) to be our TEACHER. We must allow the Holy Spirit to impart us with the wisdom to handle our situation. We must allow the Holy Spirit to point us in the direction to go. We must allow the Holy Spirit to influence our decisions. We must allow the Holy Spirit to give us divine instruction on what to do and say. We must allow the Holy Spirit to train us in the things of the Kingdom. We must allow the Holy Spirit to control our desires. We must allow the Holy Spirit to guide us into all the truth of the Word of God that we need for life.

As we continue to seek to delight in the Lord — let’s allow the “influencer” to teach us all things we need to know in order to go from one level of glory to the other this year.

Have a spirit-controlled day/week!!

Loving Regards,

Influencer as Helper #2

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 12^th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

May we experience God’s grace (undeserved favor) in a greater dimension, as we believe and delight in the Lord this year this month of May in Jesus Name..Amen!

Let’s continue with the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – as we said that for us to delight in God we must be “under the influence” of the Holy Spirit. Still looking at the scripture in the book of John Chapter 16:7&8 – amplified version says: However, I am telling you nothing but the truth when I say it is profitable (good, expedient, advantageous) for you that I go away. Because if I do not go away, the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener, Standby) will not come to you [into close fellowship with you]; but if I go away, I will send Him to you [to be in close fellowship with you]. And when He comes, He will convict and convince the world and bring demonstration to it about SIN and about RIGHTEOUSNESS (uprightness of heart and right standing with God) and about JUDGEMENT: (AMPL)

When Jesus was about to leave the earth – He promised to send us the Holy Spirit to influence us by being our helper. In the scripture above another things that the Holy Spirit was going to help to do was convict people about righteousness.

So My dear! the Word of the Lord to us today is that: For us to delight in God we must allow the “influencer” (the Holy Spirit) to be our helper. We must allow the Holy Spirit to convict the world of righteousness. We must allow the Holy Spirit to help to convince us about uprightness of heart. We must allow the Holy Spirit to help us to know how to be in right standing with God. We must allow the help us to understand that out righteousness is like filthy rags. We must allow the Holy Spirit to assist us in knowing that our righteousness is not of ourselves but through Christ. We must allow the Holy Spirit to always remind that we are what we are only by the grace of God. We must allow the Holy Spirit to help us to

May the Holy Spirit continue to help us as we seek to delight in the Lord this season and always.

Have a blessed and highly favored day.

Loving Regards,

Influencer as a Helper #1

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 11th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!May we experience God’s grace (undeserved favor) in a greater dimension, as we believe and delight in the Lord this year this month of May in Jesus Name..Amen! Let’s continue with the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – as we said that for us to delight in God we must be “under the influence” of the Holy Spirit. Still looking at the scripture in the book of John Chapter 16:7&8 – amplified version says: However, I am telling you nothing but the truth when I say it is profitable (good, expedient, advantageous) for you that I go away. Because if I do not go away, the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener, Standby) will not come to you [into close fellowship with you]; but if I go away, I will send Him to you [to be in close fellowship with you]. And when he comes, he will convict the world of its sin, and of God’s righteousness, and of the coming judgment. (AMPL)

When Jesus was about to leave the earth — He promised to give us the Holy Spirit: our Helper. He promised to send us the Holy Spirit to influence us by being our helper. Who is a helper?

Helper is a person or thing that gives assistance and support — Helper a person who contributes to the fulfillment of a need or furtherance of an effort or purpose.

My dear! the Word of the Lord to us today is that: For us to delight in God we must allow the “influencer” (the Holy Spirit) to be our Helper. We must allow Him to help, assist and to support us as we seek to fulfill God’s purpose for our life. We must allow the influencer to help to convict the world of sin. We must allow the Holy Spirit to help to expose the error in the way the world view sin. We must allow the Holy Spirit to help to show the world the truth about sin. We must allow the Holy Spirit to help to bring our wrong ways & thoughts to our attention. We must allow the Holy Spirit to help us as we examine ourselves at all times.

As we continue to seek to delight in God — My prayer is that we will continue to allow our the Holy Spirit to influence us in all that we do in Jesus Name.. Amen!

I-nfluence: Attributes of the “influencer”

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 10th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!May we experience God’s grace (undeserved favor) in a greater dimension, as we believe and delight in the Lord this year this month of May in Jesus Name..Amen! Let’s continue with the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – as we said that for us to delight in God we must be “under the influence” of the Holy Spirit. Still looking at the scripture in the book of John Chapter 16 verse 7 – amplified version says: However, I am telling you nothing but the truth when I say it is profitable (good, expedient, advantageous) for you that I go away. Because if I do not go away, the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener, Standby) will not come to you [into close fellowship with you]; but if I go away, I will send Him to you [to be in close fellowship with you]. (AMPL)

In this translation – The Holy Spirit is being referred to as the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener, Standby). Jesus was talking to His disciple when He was about to leave — He realized that they were sad and He had to explain to them that His departure would definitely be a benefit to them. This is because the Holy Spirit who is… the Helper, Comforter, Advocate, Strengthener, Intercessor etc… will come when Jesus has gone to be with the Father. After resurrection, we know that Jesus has gone to be with the Father. Therefore the Holy Spirit that was promised in this scripture is here with us even now. The Holy Spirit has been sent and is here with us to strengthen, comfort, help and encourage us.

My dear! The Word of the Lord coming to us today is that: For us to continue to delight in God i.e. continue to be under the influence of the Holy Spirit — we must allow the Holy Spirit to exhibit the attributes outlined in this scripture. We must allow the Holy Spirit to encourage us during those hard times. We must cry out to the Holy Spirit, the Counselor to guide us in what we need to do in that situation. We must look to the hills, to the Helper, to take us go through those hard and trying times. We must seek the Holy Spirit, the strengthener, when it seems we are starting to get weary in doing good. We must allow the Holy Spirit to comfort us when we feel hurt or lost a loved one. We must allow the Holy Spirit, the Advocate to defend us this court of “life” that we find ourselves. We must the Holy Spirit to intercede on our behalf with groaning too deep for our words to express.

As seek to delight in the Lord this month of May – let’s take time to draw close and allow the Holy Spirit to express His divine attributes in our life at all times.

Loving Regards

I-nfluence — Befriend HIM

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 9^th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

May we experience God’s grace (undeserved favor) in a greater dimension, as we believe and delight in the Lord this year this month of May in Jesus Name..Amen!

Let’s continue with the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – we said last week that for us to delight in God we must be “under the influence” of the Holy Spirit. I want us to spend some time looking at some of the things that we can do in order to ensure that we continue to be under the influence of the Holy Spirit.

The 1^st scripture that comes to mind is in the book of John Chapter 16 verse 7: So let me say it again, this truth: It’s better for you that I leave. If I don’t leave, the FRIEND won’t come. But if I go, I’ll send Him (the FRIEND) to you (MSG)

In this translation of the scripture — Jesus was telling His disciples when He was about to go back to His Father (God) that it was necessary for Him to go, and He told them the benefits of Him leaving them. He said He had to go so that He can send “the Friend”: the Holy Spirit to them. So Jesus had to leave so that we can come into close fellowship or relationship with the Holy Spirit, the Friend who is able to ensure that we continue to remain under the influence.

My dear! the Word of God to us today is that: For us to continue to delight in God i.e. continue to be under the influence of the Holy Spirit then we must befriend the Holy Spirit. We must embrace the friendship of the Holy Spirit so that we can walk in the divine will/plan/purpose of God for our life. We must befriend the Holy Spirit so that we will not walk in the flesh. We must befriend the Holy Spirit so that we can live a life that is pleasing to God. We must befriend the Holy Spirit so that we can continue to be spiritual-minded.

Let’s always remember that we have a Friend who is able to help us to be spiritual-minded i.e. continue “under the influence”… so let’s go ahead make the Holy Spirit our companion 2day.

Have a great week!

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

I’m under the influence of…

Hey Dear,Thank God for the 6th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!May we experience God’s grace (undeserved favor) in a greater dimension, as we believe and delight in the Lord this year this month of May in Jesus Name..Amen! As we continue looking at the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – the phrase that comes to mind is “under the influence” i.e. driving under the influence (DUI). Be blessed as you listen to the lyrics of the song “Under the influence” by Anointed — http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7itrewhuUE.

As we go into this weekend – May we continue to be under the influence of love. May we continue to be intoxicated by the power of God. May we continue to be under the influence of the Holy Spirit.Remain blessed as you go into this new day and weekend and remember to delight in God we must endeavor to be “under the influence….”

Enjoy a Spirit-filled day!

I-nfluence: Spiritual-minded

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 5th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!May we experience God’s grace (undeserved favor) in a greater dimension, as we believe and delight in the Lord this year this month of May in Jesus Name..Amen! As we continue looking at the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – the phrase that comes to mind is “under the influence” i.e. driving under the influence (DUI). The scripture in the book of John chapter 4 verse 24 says: God is a Spirit (a spiritual Being) and those who worship Him must worship Him in “spirit and in truth”(reality) (AMP) — Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth (MSG) The scripture says: God is Spirit and anyone who will worship Him must worship in Spirit and truth. The word “MUST” here expresses — “an obligation, a requirement, a necessity, a certainty, and something that must be done”. When “must” is used it means that it is not optional. The only way we can walk with God and be acceptable to Him is when we walk and live by the Spirit.

So we can interpret this scripture as saying: God is Spirit so anyone who will delight in God i.e. be “under the influence” of the Holy Spirit MUST be spiritual-minded. Spiritual-minded means – Having the mind set on spiritual things, or filled with holy desires and affections.

My dear! The Word of God coming to us today is that: For us to delight in God i.e. be “under the influence” of the Holy Spirit — We must strive (daily) to do everything by the leading of the Holy Spirit. We must set our hearts on things above (heavenly things). We must strive not to walk according to the dictates of the flesh. We must make a decision to walk by faith and not by sight. We must lay aside every sin that so easily comes upon our flesh. We must take a stand to live by the Spirit of God. We must make a decision to be Spiritual-minded in everything we do.

Remain blessed as you go into this new day — may God grant us the grace and power that we need to be spiritual-minded.

Enjoy a Spirit-filled day!

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 4^th day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue to believe and delight in the Lord this year – may we experience the God’s grace (undeserved favor) in a greater dimension this month of May in Jesus Name..Amen!

Looking at the I in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {Influence in relation to delighting in God} – the phrase that comes to mind is “under the influence” i.e. driving under the influence (DUI).

As we continue to look at this theme, let’s ask ourselves questions like – What are we D.U.I of? What are we allowing to influence us on this journey of life? What should actually be influencing us on our journey of life?

Let’s look at the scripture in the book of Galatians 5:16 says: But I say, walk and live [habitually] in the [Holy] Spirit [responsive to and controlled and guided by the Spirit]; then you will certainly not gratify the cravings and desires of the flesh (of human nature without God). (AMP)
In this scripture, Apostle Paul is admonishing the people of Galatia to endeavor to live by the spirit so that they will be able to overcome the desires that the flesh brings their way. He was telling them to endeavor to be under the control of the Spirit so that they will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

The Word of the Lord coming to you and I today is that: For us to be able to delight in the Lord — we must be under the influence of the Holy Spirit. We must be intoxicated by the power of the Holy Spirit. We must allow the power of the Holy Spirit to control our life. We must allow the Holy Spirit to guide & lead us in the decision we make. We must allow the Holy Spirit to rule every area of our life.. We must be under the authority of the Triune God.

My dear! For us to fulfill the condition in Psal 37:4 (delight in God), we must be under the influence of the Holy Spirit. May God help us as we seek to walk & live by the Holy Spirit.

Enjoy a Spirit led day!

Loving regards,

Temidayo

I-nfluence: DUI or DWI?

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 3^rd day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

Since the beginning of the year – we have been trying to understand what it means to: Delight in the Lord i.e. what we need to do in order to fulfill this condition that is linked to the promise in Psalm 37:4 – “Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart.”. So far we have looked at D.E.L.I.G.H.T under the following categories: Decrees, Expressions and Love…the next category is “Influence” – how it relates to delighting in God.

Let’s start by understanding what influence means? Dict. Meaning of Influence- to persuade or induce; ability to alter or sway an individual’s or a group’s thoughts & beliefs; the process of producing effects on the actions, behavior and opinions, of another person; to move or impel (a person) to some action etc

When I hear someone say the word “influence” – phrase that comes to mind is “under the influence”…. and terms like driving under the influence (DUI) and driving while intoxicated (DWI) are common phrases used to represent the criminal offense of operating a motor vehicle while being under the influence of alcohol or drugs or a combination of both.

In light of these definitions – I want us to ask ourselves some question: Are we “driving under the influence”? Are we “driving while intoxicated”? Are we driving through this journey of life “drunk/intoxicated”? What is compelling us to take do the things we do? What is controlling our actions/thoughts/behavior? What is influencing us on this journey of life?….etcetera.

Over the next couple of weeks – we will try to answer some of these “influence” questions as it relates to delighting in God.

As we continue in this season — May we experience the grace and favor of God each new day of this new month of May.

Loving Regards,

Temidayo Onajin

Happy New MAY!!

Hey Dear,

Happy New Month!! Happy New MAY!!

Thank God for the 2nd day of May 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!As this is the 5th month of the year and “5” being the number of GRACE – May we experience the God’s grace (undeserved favor) in a greater dimension this month of May in Jesus Name..Amen! The bible says in Psalm 102: 13 — You will arise and have mercy on Zion; For the time to FAVOUR her, Yes ,the set time (designated moment), has come (AMPL) — You’ll get up from your throne and help Zion– it’s time for compassionate help. (MSG) — You will arise and have mercy on Jerusalem– and now is the time to pity her, now is the time you promised to help. (NLT) — You will show pity to Zion, because the time has come. (CEV) The Word of the Lord coming to you & I this new month is that: Now is the set time for God’s favor … this month of MAY is the set time!!

So MAY! Hear the Word of the Lord today as we decree in the Name of Jesus — This is our season of divine favor. This is the set time for God’s abundance. The promises of God to us is coming to pass this month. We are breaking forth this month. We decree divine breakthrough into our life this month. We will fulfill the purpose of God for our life this month. We declare that as each day breaks, the earth will yield its increase unto us. We declare that our time of help is now. We decree that our lines have fallen unto us in pleasant places this month. We decree that we are going to our wealthy place this month. We decree that the wealth of the Gentiles is ours this season in Jesus Name. We call forth those things that be not as though they are…this month. We subdue every plan of the enemy over our life this month. We take dominion-authority over each day of this month. We decree that we are moving forward – we are moving to the place of our destiny this month…in Jesus Name we pray. Amen!

My dear! MAY is the set time…. use your mouth to decree those things that be not as though they are – then delight, believe and be EXPECTANT!!

Have a favor/grace-filled month!

Becos’ He lives…

Hey Dear,

TGIFriday!

Thank God for the 29th day of April 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!As we continue to understand the L in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {LOVE as it relates to delighting in God} — today is a another day to remember the sincere, unconditional, sacrificial agape love of the Risen Savior to us

Be blessed as you listen to this lyrics– http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4Y7TuRrz1s — and be encouraged that because Jesus He lives, we can face tomorrow. Because Jesus lives, All fear is gone. Because Jesus lives, our future is certain. Because Jesus lives life is worth living. Enjoy a “royal” day & weekend J!!

Decree in the Name of the Risen One…

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 28^th day of April 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue to understand the L in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {LOVE as it relates to delighting in God} — today is a another day to remember the sincere, unconditional, sacrificial agape love of the Lover of our soul to us. The scripture in the book of Luke 24: 1-7 says: Very early on the first day of the week, at dawn, the women came to the tomb, bringing the spices they had prepared. They found that the STONE HAS BEEN ROLLED AWAY from the entrance. but when they went in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about this, two men in shining clothes suddenly stood beside them. The women were very afraid and bowed their heads to the ground. The men said to them, “Why are you looking for a living person in this place for the dead? He is not here; HE IS RISEN FROM THE DEAD!

Another thing that comes to mind as we continue to look at this scripture in light of the season of resurrection is that: We have authority after resurrection – We have the authority to decree in the Name of the Risen One… and it shall come to pass. You and I have the authority to tread upon anything in the Name of the Risen One and they shall not hurt us. We have the power to speak to any situation in the Name of the Risen One and it will be well.

Therefore, today by the authority we have in the Name of the Risen One = JESUS CHRIST – We decree that every situation that looks dead around us come alive now by the power of resurrection. We declare that every hopeless situation comes to life by the resurrection power. We decree that every dead financial situation receive life right now in Jesus Name. We declare that every business proposal and ideas that has been buried will come back to life by the reason of the anointing. We declare that every home/ministry/marriage going through problems receive life in Jesus Name. We decree that we are loosed from any form of bondage, by the power of the resurrection in Jesus Name. We decree life to every dead situation right now in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen. We declare that signs and wonders will follow every declaration we make this season in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen!!

As we continue in this season, let’s continue to declare our freedom by the authority which has been bestowed upon us through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

Fix Your Eyes on The Risen One….

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 27th day of April 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue to understand the L in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {LOVE as it relates to delighting in God} — today is a another day to remember the sincere, unconditional, sacrificial agape love of the Lover of our soul to us. The scripture in the book of Luke 24: 1-7 says: Very early on the first day of the week, at dawn, the women came to the tomb, bringing the spices they had prepared. They found that the STONE HAS BEEN ROLLED AWAY from the entrance. but when they went in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about this, two men in shining clothes suddenly stood beside them. The women were very afraid and bowed their heads to the ground. The men said to them, “Why are you looking for a living person in this place for the dead? He is not here; HE IS RISEN FROM THE DEAD!

The scripture (vs. 6). here says: The women who went looking for Jesus in the tomb were asked: Why they were looking for a living person in a cemetery? Why they looking for the risen One in the place where dead people live? I guess these women were just so overwhelmed with the large stone that had been rolled away that they didn’t even remember the promise of resurrection after 3 days. They just did the normal thing anyone will do — looking for the Jesus in the tomb. They were looking for the Savior in the wrong place. They were puzzled and terrified and were looking for the One who God has promised to save the whole world in the wrong place. In the same way, we also can sometimes find ourselves looking for our solution in the wrong place because of the magnitude of the problem we seem to be faced with. We can find ourselves looking in the wrong direction for the help that God has promised us, because we don’t seem to understand what is happening. We can find ourselves seeking counsel from the wrong person, because of the pressure of what we are going through. We can sometimes find ourselves seeking the fulfillment of the promise of God in the wrong way. We can sometimes find ourselves looking for help from the wrong places.

My dear! As we continue in this season of resurrection – let take our eyes off those problems and look to the hill where our help comes from. Let’s take our mind off those things that make us weary/anxious but fix our thought on those things which are excellent and praiseworthy (Phil 4:8). Let’s get rid of those things that easily weigh us down and fix our eyes on the Risen One: the author and perfecter of our faith (Heb 12:1-3)

As we fix our eyes on the Risen One… may we experience the power of resurrection in a greater dimension in every area of our life this season in Jesus name. Amen!!

Every Stone Has Deen Rolled Away…!!

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 26^th day of April 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

The scripture in the book of Mark 16 : 1-4 says: When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. ² Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb ³ and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?” ⁴ But when they looked up, they saw that the STONE, which was very LARGE, HAD BEEN ROLLED AWAY.

The scripture says here that the stone has been rolled away…the large stone that was used to close the entrance of the tomb where Jesus was laid has been rolled away. The stone can be said to symbolize – a restriction, hindrance, a form of bondage, the limitation of freedom etc. As the stone at the entrance of the tomb has been rolled away so also every stone in the path of our destiny has been rolled away.

My dear! As we continue in this season of resurrection — the Word coming to us today is that: Every stone in our life have been rolled away. The stone of doubt has been rolled away. The stone of despair has been rolled away. The stone of defeat has been rolled away. The stone of failure has been rolled away. The stone of delay has been rolled away. The stone of poverty has been rolled away. The stone of misfortune has been rolled away. The stone of infirmity has been rolled away. The stone of wrong connection has been rolled away. The stone of stagnancy has been rolled away. The stone of sorrow has been rolled away. The stone of death has been rolled away.

As we continue in this season of Easter, let’s continue to declare that “every stone is rolled away” by the authority which has been bestowed upon us through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Enjoy a victorious day!!

Loving Regards,

Temiday

B’cos He is Risen…

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 25^th day of April 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

The stone has been rolled away….the Lover of our soul is not longer in the grave — He is risen…Jesus is risen…He is alive forevermore!!!

My dear! Let’s be encouraged this new day – Because Jesus is risen, we can face tomorrow. Because the King of kings is risen, all fear is gone. Because He is risen, our future is certain. Because our Savior is risen, life is worth living. Because Jesus is risen, we can overcome every trouble, trials, challenges on our way. Because our Redeemer lives, we are more than conquerors. Because He is risen, we are victorious. Because He lives, we are no longer slaves to sin. Because our Master is risen, the sting of death is gone. Because He lives, we have life abundant. Because Jesus is risen, we have eternal life.
Be blessed as you continue in this great day – Jesus is risen! Jesus is alive forever! The sting of death/depression/sorrow is gone forever!

L-OVE: The Cross = Perfect act of Love!!

Hey Dear,

TGIFriday… Good Friday!

Thank God for the 22^nd day of April 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue to understand the L in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {LOVE as it relates to delighting in God} — today (Good Friday) is a good day to remind ourselves of the sincere, unconditional, sacrificial agape love of God to us. Let’s look at the scripture in the book of Luke 23:34 — Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing. And they divided up his clothes by casting lots (NIV) — Jesus prayed, “Father, forgive them; they don’t know what they’re doing.” Dividing up his clothes, they threw dice for them (MSG)

This scripture is Jesus response to the treatment He received from the hands of those who were nailing Him to the Cross. Jesus asked God to forgive the people who were putting him to death on the Cross. He asked God to have mercy on the Jewish leaders, Romans politicians and soldiers, bystanders who were mocking him — because they do not know what they were doing.

My dear! Jesus was suffering the most horrible, painful death ever devised by sinful man and he looked at the people responsible for His suffering and prayed for their forgiveness. And God answered that prayer by opening up the way of salvation & deliverance to the whole world through Jesus’ crucifixion, death & resurrection. What a perfect act of love!!

The Word coming to us today is that: “The Cross of Calvary” is the perfect act of love!! The response of Jesus to the mocking, suffering, crucifixion and death that He received in the hands of people is a perfect expression of sincere love – the love God expect us to show to our neighbors.

As we continue in this season of Easter – let’s take time to give thanks for the agape love that God bestowed upon us by giving His one and only begotten God to die for us.

Have a “good” Friday and a glorious Easter!!

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

As we seek to DELIGHT ourselves in the Lord this month of April – may the heavens be opened upon us & may we be deeply rooted in the love of God this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

As we continue to understand the L in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {LOVE as it relates to delighting in God}, I want us to take a look at the scripture in the book of Romans 12 vs. 9: Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. (NIV) — Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good. (NLT)

In the 3rd part of the scripture, Paul went on to explain that a person who really loves sincerely will “cling to what is good”. The One that loves sincerely will cleave to the right things. The person who loves sincerely will be attached to godly things. The person who really loves from the heart will be devoted to the things that are right in the eyes of God. The person who really loves sincerely will attracted to those things which God takes pleasure in.

The Word coming to us today is that – as we seek to love as God expects, we must cling to good! We must be attracted to doing good. We must be devoted to expressing the acts of the fruit of the spirit:…love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control…” (Gal 5:22,23)

My dear! As we continue in this season, let’s be reminded that a person walking in sincere love should be attracted to and practice those things that are right, holy, good and eternally valuable. May God help us in Jesus name. Amen!!

Have an awesome “good clinging” dayJ!!

L-OVE: Hate what is evil

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 20th day of April 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we seek to DELIGHT ourselves in the Lord this month of April – may the heavens be opened upon us & may we be deeply rooted in the love of God this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

In the 2nd part of the scripture, Paul went on to explain that a person who really loves sincerely will “hate what is evil” So the word of the Lord to us today is that: sincere love must hate what is wrong. Sincere love will loathe ungodliness. Sincere love will turn from all forms of wickedness. Sincere love will despise the “acts of sin”; some of which are highlighted in the book of Roman 1– sexual immorality, greed, depravity, envy, murder, strife, deceit, slander, arrogance, boasting, inventing ways of doing evil, disobedient to parents, quarreling, deception, malicious behavior, backstabbing, gossiping etc. So if we truly love sincerely, the thought of these behaviors will be personally repulsive to us.

My dear! As children of God, in order for us to express sincere love to God and to others — we must hate evil passionately i.e. we must detest all forms of wickedness and acts of sin! May God help us as we go through each day.

Enjoy a gr8 “hate evil” day”

L-OVE: Bust Be Sincere!!

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 19th day of April 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for His faithfulness. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we seek to DELIGHT ourselves in the Lord this month of April – may the heavens be opened upon us & may we be deeply rooted in the love of God this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

In the 1st part of the scripture, Paul is telling us that the love that God expect us to share with our neighbors must be “sincere”….love must be from our heart.

My dear! The Word coming to you and I today is that: We are to love “for real”… from our inner being – no pretence. The love we profess to our neighbor must be sincere, free from deceit. The love we are expected to express to our neighbors must be real. The love we are to show our neighbors must be genuine from our heart. The love we are expected to practice must be without hypocrisy. The love we are expected to share with our neighbors must be unadulterated. The love we are expected to share with our neighbors must from a pure heart.

As we continue to seek to delight in the Lord at all times – may God grant us the grace to love our neighbor as ourselves and with a genuine and sincere heart.

Have a glorious LOVE_ing day!!

L-OVE: Samaritan’s Act of Mercy #4 – Give ur Resources!

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 18^th day of April 2011 – a month & day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for who He is. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue to DELIGHT in the Lord this new month of April – may the heavens be opened upon us & may we be deeply rooted in the love of God this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

Still using the story of good Samaritan Luke Chapter 10 to understand the L in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {LOVE as it relates to delighting in God}. I want us to take some time to look at some act of mercy that the Samaritan showed in this story as it relates to how we are expected to express love (agápē, αγάπη) to our neighbors.

The 4^th act of mercy is found in verse 35 – 35 The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have(NIV)

The scripture says here that the Samaritan gave the innkeeper two silver coins (Roman denarii) as a deposit to ensure that the wounded man is taken care of. One Roman denarii is equivalent to be the average pay for one day’s work. The Samaritan gave of his “sweat” – he gave 2 days of his wages to cover the cost of the wounded man.

My dear! The Word of the Lord to you and I today is that for us to be able to express love as we should – we must be ready to give our resources. We must be able to give of our finances to assist those in need. We must be ready to give our material possessions to those who are not able to afford. We must be ready to give our spiritual gift to serve others in our local church. We must be ready to give of our talent to help those in need. We must be ready to give our resources to assist those who have been affected by one kind of natural disaster or another.

As we continue to seek to love our neighbor as ourselves this season – May God continue to grant us the grace we need in order to share our resources – in cash and kind, with those who are in need.

Have a gr8 giving day!

Loving Regards,

L-OVE: Lettherebeloveshared….

Hey Dear, TGIFriday!

Thank God for letting us see the 15^th day of April 2011 – a day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for who He is. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue to BELIEVE & DELIGHT in the Lord this new month of April – may the heavens be opened upon us & may we be deeply rooted in the love of God this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

May there be love in our eyes. May now your love sweep this nation. Cause us, O Lord, to arise in your love. Give us a fresh understanding of brotherly love that is real and sacrificial. May the agape love of God be shared among us.

L-OVE: Samaritan’s Act of Mercy #3 – “Soothe the Wound..”!

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 14th day of April 2011 – a month & day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for who He is. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue to DELIGHT in the Lord this new month of April – may the heavens be opened upon us & may we be deeply rooted in the love of God this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

Still using the story of good Samaritan Luke Chapter 10 to understand the L in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {LOVE as it relates to delighting in God}. I want us to take some time to look at some act of mercy that the Samaritan showed in this story as it relates to how we are expected to express love (agápē, αγάπη) to our neighbors.

The 3rd act of mercy is found in verse 34 – Going over to him, the Samaritan soothed his wounds with olive oil and wine and bandaged them. Then he put the man on his own donkey and took him to an inn, where he took care of him (NLT)

The scripture says here that the Samaritan soothed/treated the man’s wound i.e. he bought some comfort/relieve to the man’s pain. He treated the man by applying olive oil, wine and bandaging the wound. In New Testament times, the oil and wine were used like medicine to soften and clean wounds – with the expectation of bringing healing to the wound.

My dear! The Word to us today is that for us to be able to express love as we should – we must be ready to “soothe the wound”. We must be ready to “soothe the wound” using the different options available to us. We must be able to apply olive oil to the soothe the wounds of other – by creating an atmosphere/aroma of God’s presence around us. We must be able to apply wine to soften the heart of men – by bringing joy through the things we do. We must be able to bring relieve to people’s emotional hurt – by the word of encouragement we speak to them. We must be able to refresh those who are in need by bandaging their wounds with our resources (money/material/prayers/words).

As we continue to seek to delight in God by loving others as ourselves – may we receive the grace that we need in order to “soothe the wounds” of others in Jesus name. Amen!

Enjoy a gr8 soothing day!

L-OVE: Samaritan’s Act of Mercy #2 – Take Action…Go Out!

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 13th day of April 2011 – a month & day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for who He is. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue to DELIGHT in the Lord this new month of April – may the heavens be opened upon us & may we be deeply rooted in the love of God this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

The 2nd act of mercy is found in verse 34a – Going over to him, the Samaritan soothed his wounds with olive oil and wine and bandaged them (NLT) — The Samaritan went to him, poured olive oil and wine on his wounds, and bandaged them (NCV). Here the scripture says: The Samaritan went over to him… this means he didn’t just see him and have compassion for him but he went over to where the man was and gave him some 1st aid treatment. The Samaritan was able to express his love and compassion when he went over to touch the man physically.. he took some actions!

My dear! The Word to us today is that – for us to be able to express love to our neighbors as we should, we must go out to the people and actually take some actions. We can look at taking action in 2 ways:

· Take action by going out and looking for people who are in need – We can get this information by listening to news, from local church mission work, surfing the internet, supporting outreach ministries, checking the neighborhood around us. Then we can now go out and be a blessing with our resources.· Take action by going out of our comfort zone to help someone – We must not just identify with the people in our inner circle but go out of our way. We must do some unusual things… things that we’ll not normally do. We must take our eyes off our “core” i.e. ourselves/immediate family/close friends etc, but look at the world at large.As we continue in this season of love – may God grant us the grace to take action as we seek to express the agape love of God to those who have been wounded on this journey of life.

Have a action (love) packed day/week/monthJ!

L-OVE: Samaritan’s Act of Mercy #1 – Be Compassionate!!

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 12^th day of April 2011 – a month & day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for who He is. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue to DELIGHT in the Lord this new month of April – may the heavens be opened upon us & may we be deeply rooted in the love of God this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

The 1^st act of mercy is found in verse 33 – “Then a despised Samaritan came along, and when he saw the man, he felt compassion for him (NLT). A Samaritan traveling the road came on him. When he saw the man’s condition, his heart went out to him (MSG). The bible records here that as soon as the Samaritan saw the condition of the wounded man… his heart went out to him and he had compassion on him.

Compassion (dict meaning): is a feeling of deep sympathy and sorrow for another who is stricken by misfortune and this feeling is usually accompanied by a strong desire to alleviate the suffering.

My dear! The Word coming to us today is that for us to be able to express the love of God to those around us as we should – we must have compassion. We must develop deep sympathy for those who are in need around us. We must put ourselves in the shoes of the needy people in our world. We must develop a desire to reach out to the lost souls. We must have pity on those who are going through difficult times around us. We must have a strong desire to help those who have been wounded on this journey of life.We must be able to identify with the conditions of the people around us. We must have a tender heart towards those that have been robbed by the one who came to kill, steal & destroy.

May God help us as we make a conscious effort to develop compassion for those who are in need because they have been wounded in this journey of life.

Have a compassionate day!!

Loving Regards,

Temidayo

L-OVE: Go and Do Likewise!

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 11^th day of April 2011 – a month & day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for who He is. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we seek to DELIGHT in the Lord this new month of April – may the heavens be opened upon us & may we be deeply rooted in the love of God this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

Still using the story of good Samaritan in Luke Chapter 10 to understand the L in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {LOVE as it relates to delighting in God}. The discussion between Jesus and the religious law expert continued in verse 36 & 37 – “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?” The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”

After all the talks about: the wounded man, Jewish priest, Temple servant & the Samaritan man – Jesus then asked the expert who he thinks is the wounded man’s neighbor from this story. The religious expert may have been reluctant to even call him a Samaritan as he said: “The one who showed him mercy”. And Jesus response to him was – now that you have seen and understand this then: “You, Go and do likewise”.

My dear! The Word of Jesus to the religious expert is what God is saying to you and I today – Now, Go and do the same! Go and do exactly the same thing that the Samaritan did. Go and express love to the “strangers” in your world. Go and do what you understand from this story. Go and act on the Word you have been taught. Go and do what the Word teaches about love. Go and show forth the Samaritan’s acts of mercy. Go and do as likewise!!

As we continue in this month of April – may the gift of love in our heart be stirred up so that we can indeed go and do likewise!!

Have a LOVE-filled day!!

Loving Regards,

L-OVE: Samaritan Love #3

Hey Dear,

Thank God for the 7th day of April 2011 – a month & day that the Lord has made so let’s begin this new day by rejoicing in the Lord for who He is. Praise God…Hallelujah!

As we continue to BELIEVE & DELIGHT in the Lord this new month of April – may the heavens be opened upon us & may we be deeply rooted in the love of God this new month in Jesus name. Amen!

Still looking at the L in D.E.L.I.G.H.T – {LOVE as it relates to delighting in God}. God’s kind of love (agápē, αγάπη) which we must express others. Today let’s look at verse 33 & 34 of Luke Chapter 10 (story of good Samaritan) –“33 Then a despised Samaritan came along, and when he saw the man, he felt compassion for him. 34 Going over to him, the Samaritan soothed his wounds with olive oil and wine and bandaged them. Then he put the man on his own donkey and took him to an inn, where he took care of him. This portion of scripture records that a “despised” Samaritan had compassion on the wounded man as he came along the road – he went over to the wounded Jewish man and took care of him.

Few points to note from this story:

· A Samaritan man was the one that had pity & compassion on the wounded man – Samaritans are people from Samaria. These people were part Jewish, but the Jews did not accept them as true Jews. And it’s also believed that Samaritans and Jews disliked each other.· A Samaritan man was the one that gave him first aid, disinfected and bandaged the man’s wounds- the Jewish man was slighted by his fellow Jews. He was abandoned by those who should be his friends i.e. family, fellow believers, work colleagues but was cared for by a stranger. So as we go through this journey of life, let’s be sensitive to those “strangers” that God has brought our way to help us.

· A Samaritan man put him on his own donkey – even though the Jews considered the Samaritans to be ceremonially unclean and socially outcast, but the Samaritan didn’t allow other people’s view about him and his culture to stop him from helping the wounded man. As we go through this journey of life, let be careful not to judge people based on their physical appearance i.e. color, culture, race because we might miss the “stranger” whom God has assigned to us.

· A “despised” Samaritan man was the one that took the wounded man to a place (an inn) to be made comfortable and cared for – the wounded man was cared for by a Samaritan who is from the nation which the Jews despised and detested, and would have no dealings with. As we go through life, let’s be careful not to allow what we have heard about someone or group of people to cloud the way we see them. Because we might end up missing a God ordained assistance.

My dear! As we continue on this journey of life – May our eyes be opened to see the “stranger(s)” God has sent our way to lead us to our destination. May we be sensitive in the Holy Spirit so that we can identify our helper(s) of destiny.
