Keep your joy and be healthy!

Proverbs 17:22
A joyful heart is good medicine, But a broken spirit dries up the bones.

You are a spirit, you have a soul and you live in a body. The core of your being is your spirit. When the Bible talks about the heart, it's talking about the spirit which is also called the inner man and the hidden man. It talks about your spirit.

Proverbs tells us to guard our hearts with all diligence, for out of it comes the forces of life. The content and quality of our hearts will be the content and quality of our lives because out of our hearts comes the forces of life. Guard your heart! Be very careful about what you deposit in your heart because thats exactly what you will see in your life. This verse says a joyful heart is a good medicine. A joyful heart results in divine health and wholeness. The Bible says the joy of the Lord is your strength. When you make a decision to have a joyful heart, you have chosen to have a strong heart. Don't allow the devil to steal your joy. Remain in the joy of the Lord. Joy is the atmosphere of heaven. A person who carries the joy of the Lord carries heaven with him wherever he goes. He carries the strength of the Lord wherever he goes. A joyful heart affects your soul, your body, your family, your finances and every area of your life.

Friend, I encourage you to stop being mad about everybody and start laughing because Jesus is Lord and the best is yet to come. Laugh because all things work together for the good of those who love God. Laugh because Jesus has defeated Satan and he has no authority over you. Laugh because God will meet all your needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Choose joy. Cultivate a lifestyle of thanksgiving. Focus on the word and release the joy of the Lord for the joy of the Lord is your strength. Glory to God!

Satan's future !

Revelation 20:10
The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

Satan has a terrible future awaiting him. He knows his time is short. Satan is going to be thrown into the lake of fire and brimstone and he will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

The Scriptures teaches us whatever you sow is what you reap. Every torment that Satan has sown and is sowing, he is going to receive the harvest in abundance. Satan knows his future and this is reason in these last days he's putting in everything he has to deceive more and more people so they can accompany him to the place of torment. Grace does not cancel the principle of sowing and reaping. Rather, grace gives you the ability to sow the right things so you can reap a great harvest. If you have sown the wrong things in the past by thinking, speaking or doing the wrong thing, listen, the day you accepted Christ, the word says you became a new creation, old things has passed away and behold, all things have become new. The blood of Jesus and the mercy of God has wiped out every wrong seed you had sown in the past and has made available his grace to you so you, through his ability can begin to sow the right things and enjoy the abundant and overflowing life he has for you.

Friend, don't be afraid of the devil, when he reminds you of your past, you remind him that you are a new creation in Christ, you have God's mercy, God's grace and that Jesus has suffered and paid for every wrong thing you had done. Remind the devil of his future and laugh. Ha Ha Ha. Your joy makes him mad. He cannot tolerate it. He has a terrible future but you have an awesome future. You are ever increasing and you will be a blessing to many, In Jesus name, Amen.

Jesus reveals himself!

John 14:21
He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.”

The obedient ones have great benefits. Jesus said that He will manifest himself to the ones who have his commandments and obeys them. His commands are not burdensome or grievous for his yoke is easy and his burden is light.

Think about Jesus manifesting himself to you. Is there anything more precious than that? Thats priceless especially if you love Jesus with all your being. When Jesus manifests himself, everything changes. When you do what He says, He will show up and things will begin to change. You do remember a marriage that happened at Cana in Galilee, how Jesus turned around  the humiliation of not having enough wine into a celebration of having the best wine. How did this happen? This wonderful miracle happened because someone dared to honour Jesus and His word, someone dared to do what He said. Obedience has great benefits. Anyone who dared to honour his word by obeying his command enjoyed his glory and experienced his power. Hallelujah.

Friend, take some time and meditate on this verse today. Let it sink in your hearts and your minds. He is not a dictator. He is love. Every command of His is a love command. Only love obeys. Jesus said if you love me, you will obey my commandments. Do you love him? Do you keep his commandments? Wouldn't you want Jesus to show up in your house, your marriage, your finances, your life and all around you? His presence makes all the difference. This is your time. Jesus is Lord and the best is yet to come. Glory!

Love lives in you!

Romans 5:5
Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

The love of God has been poured out in our hearts the day we received Jesus as our Lord and Saviour. Notice the words 'poured out'. God is love and all of God is in you. You are so blessed.

Love is a person and his name is Jesus. Jesus is in you through the Holy Spirit. Be conscious that His awesome and powerful love is in you right this moment. You don't have to pray for something you already have. You don't have to fast for something you already have. You have the love of God in you. Galatians says love is the fruit of your born again human spirit. Love is your nature because you are born of God and God is love. You are a love being, a love child of a love God. The moment you know this and believe it, you will begin to operate and walk in the love of God. Jesus has deposited God's love in you but walking in love is absolutely our choice. Since love is a fruit of your born again spirit, walking in love totally depends on how strong your spirit is. The stronger your spirit, the stronger the manifestation of God's love through you. A strong spirit is the key. Build your inner man, which is also called the hidden man and let the world see Gods love in you and through you. The word of God is food for your spirit.

Love God, Love people, Love life. Jesus is God's love in action. Friend, as you study the life of Jesus, you will begin to see how love spoke, how love reacts, how love behaves and how love wins. As you feed on Jesus, as you feed on his word and do what the word says consistently, the love fruit will grow and dominate your life. Love never fails.

Walk in His life!

II Corinthians 4:10
always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.

If you have accepted Christ, the life of Jesus is in you. This divine life is in your spirit and it needs to manifest in our bodies and in every area of our lives because His life is our life.

Paul in this verse gives us one of the keys of walking in the manifestation of the life of God. By always carrying the death of the Lord in his body, the life of Jesus is manifested in his body. We know Jesus died on the cross for the sins of humanity and He rose again on third day. What does it mean to carry in our body the death of the Lord Jesus? How do you carry the death of the Lord in your body so that His life can be manifested in your body? When Jesus died on the cross, the Bible says the death he died, he died to sin once for all. When He died, we died with Him and when He rose again we rose with Him. Jesus died to sin, He died to self and died to the world. So carrying the death of Jesus simply means dying to self, dying to the world and dying to sin.

Friend, because you are in Christ, you are dead to sin, to self and to the world. All we have to do is be conscious of our death with Jesus and walk accordingly. In Christ, we are alive to God, alive to righteousness and alive to holiness. As you recognise and live out your death in Him, you will begin to see the manifestation of His life in your body and in every area of your life. Walk in his overcoming, surpassing and glorious life. You will never be the same. Jesus is Lord.

Jesus, the head of the Church.

Revelation 2:1
“To the angel of the church of Ephesus write, ‘These things says He who holds the seven stars in His right hand, who walks in the midst of the seven golden lampstands:

Jesus is the Head of the church which means He is responsible for the overall functioning of the church. The Apostle John, in the spirit saw Jesus holding seven stars in his right hand and walking in the midst of the seven golden lampstands.

The seven golden lampstands represents all the churches in the world that Jesus has started and the seven stars which are in the right hand of Jesus, represents the people that Jesus has given authority to lead the churches which He has started. God has appointed Jesus as the Head of the church and Jesus is completely responsible for the well being of his body, which is the church. He runs the church and through the church He impacts the world and dominates it. He gives us life because He is the vine and so we, as His branches bear fruit in the world and impact it for Him. We work alongside Him, because we are members of His body. We are flesh of his flesh and bone of his bone. Paul said a soldier doesn't get involved in civilian affairs because he is fully focused in pleasing his commanding officer. Our only objective in life is to please our Commander in Chief, Jesus Christ, the head of the Church. The greatest thing you can do for Jesus is to keep his commandments. Jesus said if you love me, you will keep my commandments. Obedience with a willing heart thrills him.

Friend, the ones that Jesus has set as authorities in His church are in his right hand. He consistently leads and protects his appointed and anointed leaders and He walks and moves all around His church. One of the reasons He does it is because He wants to us to improve and become better and better, so He can present the church to Himself as a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that it should be holy and without blemish. Acknowledge. Cooperate. Join the boss in His mission. You will never be the same.

Victory forever!

I Corinthians 15:57
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Victory is a gift. Receive it. The resurrection of Jesus positions you on the path of victory. Your faith in the resurrection makes you walk in victory.

Victory forever! As a born again child of God, this is your heritage. Victory is your redemptive right. Be victory conscious. 'I am a believer and I refuse to fail. I cannot fail and I will not fail for Jesus is my Lord'. Jesus didn't die to make us losers, failures or weaklings. He rose again to make us more than conquerors, to overtake, to triumph, to excel and to dominate in every area of our lives. Think victory. Speak victory. Dream victory. Imagine victory. Live victory. Victory over the devil. Victory over the kingdom of darkness. Victory over the world. I John says he who believes Jesus is the Son of God is born of God and the one who is born of God overcomes the world and the victory that overcomes the world is our faith. Your faith in the resurrection makes you walk in victory. Your faith is the victory.

Friend, give God thanks for giving us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Refuse to talk failure. Refuse to talk defeat. Every step of yours is a step of victory. Every day is a day of victory. Every word that comes out of your mouth is a word of victory. Victory forever. Hallelujah. Jesus is alive and Jesus is Lord !!!
