#2 How to Defeat Unrelenting Human Foes (2)

Continuation:

 Example 2: Pharaoh of Egypt:

Bible Base: Exodus 14:9-11

After Pharaoh experienced the final plague that ended in the deaths of firstborns of man and beast, Pharaoh finally agreed to let God’s people go.

On second thoughts, Pharaoh decided it was not a good idea to let them go. So, “…The Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army…” Exodus 14:9 KJV.

I encourage you to read the remaining verses in order to understand how unrelenting Pharaoh and his army were.( Read Exodus 14:1-30)

Even after experiencing how defensive God can be for His people,  He still pursued them into the red sea, and perished there with his army .

The sea which was the pathway of deliverance for the  Israelites became the pit of destruction of their unrelenting foes. 

*Today, I declare that the mercy of God that brought you deliverance from oppression will become the vehicle for the destruction of all your unrelenting foes in the matchless name of Jesus Christ. (Read Exodus 14:14).

It is important to keep in view that one of the reasons God took out a generation of Israelites in the wilderness, was because they were unrelenting in their disobedience!

In addition, they were rebellious, stiff-necked, hardhearted, and unteachable (Read Exodus 32 & Numbers 14)

And God chose rather, to work with the next generation who were flexible and teachable, and whose hearts were yielded to Him ( Read Exodus chapters 32 & Numbers 14)

As we are standing against unrelenting human foes, dont be an unrelenting human foe as well.

Search yourself, and repent if you discover that there are people you are pursuing relentlessly. 

Stop being that wicked, rigid, vindictive, unforgiving, uncompromising, and unyielding person.

Your obedience must be complete in order for you to punish disobedience. (Read 2 Corinthians 10:4-6)

Start being the opposite of all the negatives mentioned above. Line up your life with God’s Word and you will see how God will take out those unrelenting human foes.

Our weapon of choice for this warfare is the “Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God (Ephesians 6:17)

#PrayerPoints4Today :

1). Read and Apply Psalm 103:1, 3: Praise God for who He is and for the great things HE does in our world.

2).Acknowledge that your sinfulness opened you up for negative spiritual attacks, and remember to forgive all those unrelenting foes. 

When you forgive them, you disconnect their hold on you, and your emotional healing and prosperity will commence.

Unforgiveness feeds hatred and empowers the demonic hordes to keep tormenting you. 

3). Believe in your heart that God has forgiven you as you have forgiven others (Matthew 6:14).

Believe also that God has cleansed you from All unrighteousness as His Word states in 1 John 1:9.

4). Affirm Psalm 23, by declaring that the Lord God is your Shepherd who provides, prepares, protects, feeds, heals, and comforts you despite all the treacherous and slanderous moves of  the enemies. 

5) Thank God for helping you overcome all the entrapment of the enemy and for strengthening your faith in Him. 

6). Ask God to adjudicate  over all the charges the enemy has brought against you, while affirming that as God’s righteousness in Christ Jesus, no one “can lay anything to the charge of God’s elect, for God is for us” (Romans 8:31,33)

7). Confess that you are justified by your faith in Christ Jesus (Galatians 2:15-16),and that you are filled and led by the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 5:18, Romans 8:14-15), there is therefore now, no condemnation to you for the blood of Jesus Christ has atoned for all your sins and is speaking better things on your behalf (Romans 8:1, Hebrews 9:14,15,24; 12:24)

8) In accordance with Isaiah 54:17, command all the voices of accusations that are speaking against you to remain silent for all eternity.

9). Thank God that you are born again, blood washed and saved from the strife of tongues, for those unrelenting human foes,  no longer exists.

10) Declare that God is love,  and as He is, so are you in this world: therefore, as love attracts, so shall goodness, favor,  appreciation, supporters and favorable circumstances are attracted to you, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ ♥️

#1 How to Defeat Unrelenting Human foes (1)

Bible Base: 2 Timothy 3:8-9:

“ …As Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.

But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was“ 2 Timothy 3:8-9 KJV.

Unrelenting foes are those human agents of darkness who have their minds set on doing wickedness to you.

Although they withstood your every move, and kept failing, they changed tactics.

While pretending to be on your side, they are slandering you to others, and subtly encouraging rebellion against you.

Unrelenting foes are hardhearted,  stiff-necked, cruel, uncompromising, unyielding and unforgiving. 

Don’t be deceived by how fluently they speak Christianese. They have no respect for God, instead they are focused on themselves and their statuses. 

Because they are self-centered and proud, they have faith in themselves and are no part of Christ.  

Their major default is the rejection of the goodness of God that leads to repentance. Therefore, “Unrelenting foes” are very vindictive,  manipulative, and destructive.

There are so many on social media platforms pretending to be Christians, whereas, they are subtly spreading dissensions and lies against people who are on a mission for God.

Unrelenting foes are known by their fruits not by their languages. Beware! Don’t share in their judgments. 

Example 1: Jannes and Jambres. The Two Magicians of Pharaoh: Exodus 7-8:1-19.

Their Actions:

When it was time for the deliverance of God’s people in Egypt,  God raised up Moses, and Moses co-opted Aaron to go tell Pharaoh about HIS intentions. 

For credibility’s sake, God empowered Moses with His supernatural power, so that Pharaoh and the Egyptians will know that there is an Almighty God, who is more powerful than the Egyptian gods. 

But two Egyptian magicians tried to frustrate  Moses and Aaron’s mission, by duplicating nearly all the miracles.

According to long standing Jewish tradition, Jannes and Jambres were those two magicians who stood against Moses  and Aaron way back in Exodus 7:10-12, 22; 8:19; 12:38; Exodus 32; Numbers 22:22; 25; and who continued relentlessly to do wickedly against them.

Although they could not duplicate the plagues, they made Moses’ mission work more difficult. Their pseudo-miracles interfered with God’s work that He committed to Moses and even delayed the deliverance of God’s people.

Anyone who withstands you is standing against God who you represent.

Hence it is written that, 

“To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not“ Lamentations 3:36.

#MyPrayer4you:

Therefore,  whoever or whatever is standing against your progress and progression shall be exposed, disgraced and removed from your life.

From today, I declare that no sorceries, divination, enchantments, jinxes, curses or imprecations shall prosper against you.

I proclaim the lifting up of all  bans and embargoes that were placed on your finances ministry pages, groups, and  relationships.

Shame shall clothe all those who despise, malign, and are acting like Jannes and Jambres in your life and ministry.

*God will add to you reputable people, and remove spoilers from your spheres of influences.

*Your sworn enemies will see God’s elevation of you: for the harder they try, the harder they will fall, in Jesus Christ matchless  name.

Continues with Example 2 and Spiritual Warfare prayers.

Overcome Unrealistic Expectations in  Marriage 

Bible Base: Proverbs 10:28

If the Bible states that:

“The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: But the expectation of the wicked shall perish” (Proverbs 10:28), it is important that your expectations are not wicked or unrealistic. 

Unrealistic expectations are one of the major problems that destroy  marriage relationships.

Back in Genesis, when God saw  Adam’s loneliness, He gave him Eve for companionship, with the added bonuses of

 sexual intercourse, and procreation (See Genesis 2:18-25).

Additionally, God blessed both of them for the responsibility of dominionship over the world.

Marriage is not a servant -master relationship, even though the Man (husband) is the lead-partner (See Genesis 1:27-28, Ephesians 5:23, I Corinthians 11:3).

God does hold the man accountable, who treats his wife treacherously, violently, or with despise, etc. (Read Malachi 2:14, Hebrews 13:4).

When a man enslaves or subjugates his wife under the guise of submission, he has given access to anger, resentment, slave mentality, bitterness, vindictiveness and other evils, to function in His marriage. And vice versa.

*In my book Demons Deactivated 1, the subject of subjugation and submission was well discussed, so I’m not going to discuss it here.

Be that as it may, marriage is one of God’s gifts to humanity. 

Hence, we are told that ‘the man who finds a wife, finds a good thing and obtains favor from God.’ See Proverbs 18:22.

If your marriage is plagued with troubles, God is not responsible for that.  And instead of blaming satan, or your partner, put the searchlight on you, and your marital crisis situation will be resolved quickly.

Important Notice:

a). All humans are ‘free moral agents’ who have the power to make choices! 

Which makes you responsible for your actions, reactions, and responses – See Deuteronomy 30:15-20, Galatians 6:6-8.

b). You can choose to enjoy your marriage by following the Christ and His Church model, found in Ephesians 5: 25-29,33, or you can follow the traditional,  societal, and worldly view of marriage.

c). If you are ‘born again’, you have been given everything that pertains to life and Godliness – See 2 Peter 1:3. 

2 Peter 1:3 KJV

d).Which means, you now have the ingrained ability in your new nature, to live right  in this degenerating world, and you can treat your spouse right.

e).Remember that your wife  is “heirs with you of the gracious gift of life” when you treat her right, “nothing will hinder your prayers” (1 Peter 3:7)

f). Know that God who freely gave you the Kingdom will graciously also give you all things – See Romans 8:32 .

It is unrealistic to expect your partner to give you things that you’ll receive only through an intimate relationship with God.  

Therefore,  If you went into marriage expecting your partner to give you joy, peace, prosperity,  security, love, etc., you have set yourself up for marital failure.

These are things that you internalize, and then reflect them in your relationship with God and others.

God expects that the Christian develops his/her new nature in Christ, which has been created in God’s image, in true righteousness and holiness (See Ephesians 4:24)

That new nature is evident in the fruit of the Spirit which is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (longsuffering, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness, gentleness (meekness (humility) Self control (self-restraint) See Galatians 5:22-23.

Your marriage is God’s gift to you. He wants you to enjoy the companionship of your partner and to ‘do life’ together.  

It is your responsibility to ask God for your needs so that your joy will be full (See John 16: 24-26, Matthew 7:7).

Ephesians 5:33 KJV

Refuse to allow Unrealistic expectations become the bane of your marriage

#PrayerPoints4Today:

*Thank Father God for the grace of marriage, and for giving you a partner with whom ‘to do’ life together ❤ ️. 

*Ask and receive forgiveness, for idolizing and blaming your partner for your unmet needs, instead of working out your salvation, and growing spiritually. 

*Affirm that God is working in you both to will and to do His good pleasure. 

*Declare that you are yielded to the inworking of the Holy Spirit, and will continually produce fruits worthy of repentance.

*Affirm that you have been translated from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of Light, and are no longer under the jurisdiction of satan. 

* Command to go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ, the evil spirits that are influencing marital strife, anger, rejections, revenge, unforgiveness,  hatred, resentment, bitterness, unrealistic expectations, jealousy, blame shifting,  poverty,  wretchedness,  divorce, frustrating circumstances, and adverse human interferences, with their relatives.

*Proclaim your authority in Christ Jesus and the ability to utilize the power given to you over all the forces of evil.

Luke 10:19 KJV

*Declare that all satanic interferences or projections, witchcraft manipulations, ingrained cultural beliefs, societal norms, ego, contrary learned behaviors, and everything else opposed to God’s righteous standards in your life and marriage, are disconnected, disabled, and destroyed. 

*Declare also that you stand against the forces of evils.

*Affirm that you are a new creature in Christ Jesus, created in the image of God in true Holiness and righteousness: Therefore, your personality and characteristics will continually reflect God, who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.

*Renounce all inhibitions,  resentment,  negativity or unrighteousness against your in-laws (family by marriage).

* Declare that love, acceptance, and forgiveness flows from you to them and that no partiality or dissensions can work against you all.

*Thank Father God that from today, your mind is renewed to appreciate the grace of marriage, and that  you and your partner are mutually submissive to God.

*Pray that God in His infinite mercy will bring reconciliation to troubled marriages. 

*Ask God to help those who are seeking to be married to be connected together and their expectations granted.

*Pray for widows, widowers, and elderly singles to be protected, comforted, and provided for, always, and for family members to remember to visit them also.

*Thank God for the anointing for effective and fervent prayer.

#MyPrayer4you:

I pray that as God is working within us, we will become more appreciative, be more understanding, live in harmony and unity, and also model the love of Christ to our world of influences,  in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

Be Watchful:

It is so easy to fall into the ongoing deception in our world, if your source of information is the mainstream media, rather than the Word of God.

It is worse for those who are simplistic, gullible, do not check facts, nor have the gift of discernment. 

They fall  for half truths, exaggerations and outright lies.

If you stand for nothing, you will fall for everything. 

As a Christian,  you must develop working principles from God’s Word, that will undergird you in life. So that you will not fall for lies and deceptions.

It’s a thin line between information and disinformation.

Read 2 Peter 3:17

While information centers on giving you facts about something or someone, disinformation deliberately gives you false information in order to confuse  or mislead you.

No wonder scripture says- “If it were possible even the Elect will be deceived” (See Matthew 24:24) 

Although some posit that the Elect of the above scripture refers to the Israelites, here is another scripture to let you know that the Believers in Christ, are the Elect of God too, 

“… he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love” Ephesians 1:4. KJV

This is not the time to hate anyone based on someone else’s opinions of them. 

Do not share in the iniquities of others, for you should be holy and blameless before God.

Do not fall for the lies,  half-truths, exaggerations,  outright lies, and disinformation ongoing in our world.

Ephesians 1:4 KJV

satan is the father of all liars and is also a murderer from the beginning(John 8:44)

Liars and murderers are siamese twins who are co-joined in the heart.

You will also be in error if you believe someone is a  Christian because he/she speaks Christianese!

Remember that even though Christianity is “a-together-faith”; Salvation is a personal race.

 You must throw off everything that will hinder your patient-run, towards the Goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ (Read Hebrews 12:1, Philippians 3:14).

Each of us will give a personal  account to God of how we lived here on earth. 

Therefore, ‘work out your salvation with fear and trembling’ (See Philippians 2: 12-13) 

You are responsible to God for your decisions.

2 Peter 3:17

” Ye therefore,  beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also,  being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own steadfastness.: 2 Peter 3:17 KJV

#MyPrayer4you:

I pray that you will not fall for the lies of the devil and that you will stand strong in faith, be the one to discontinue evil family traditions, and be the salt and light in your world, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

Shalom! Shalom! From Hephzibah Christly, Ph.D., #theSpiritualWarrior, November 4th, 2024

#10 Prayer Focus for Today: Grandchildren.

Although all my kids (children) are all grown up, and my grandkids are doing just great, all the evil going on in our world makes my heart flutter.

There is a story about how two nine year old girls bravely saved their six year old neighbor from kidnapping.

I don’t know how they did it, but it was no mean feat. Their act of bravery points to great parents who are bringing them up with a high sense of responsibilities.

God bless and protect those girls, their parents and the rescued little guy, in Jesus’s name.

I don’t know about you, but I do know that I have a responsibility to ensure that my grandkids cannot be touched by the lurking evils in our world.

I refuse to allow the changing values in our world to corrupt our beliefs system, which is rooted in the love and fear of God, and love for family.

I am so inspired by how Timothy’s Grandma Lois, and mom Eunice, effectively played their roles in Timothy’s upbringing.

Lois and Eunice’s influences made Timothy turn out to become a fervent, devout, faithful, and excellent leader.

Read how Paul said it:
“ I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and I am persuaded, now lives in you also” 1 Timothy 1:5

What about you?
What legacy would you leave for the generations following?

Many are transferring addictiveness, sexual immoralities, violence, wickedness, and other evils to their descendants unwittingly.

You can’t afford to be that ignorant grandma or grandpa who allows satan to destroy the bloodline through them!

As the Bible states, ‘Through knowledge shall the just be delivered” See Proverbs 11:9b.

I have prayerfully rearranged the life-course of my descendants.

I started with myself and systematically confronted all the ills in my ancestry, in myself, and in the lives of my children.

3 John 1:4 KJV

That is Spiritual Warfare!

And God reassures that “the seed of the righteous shall be delivered” Proverbs 11:21

As I stood my grounds against all unrighteousness, I intentionally continued to live as God’s righteousness in this life!

Prayerfully fight for the restoration of God’s righteous standards in your bloodline or descendants.

Refuse to hide behind obsolete excuses that your children don’t want you to be a part of their lives, and that you have no access to your grandkids.

Read how Eli, Samuel and
David was divinely disciplined, because they did not discipline/pass on God’s righteous standards to their descendants.

‘If you know the right thing to do and not do it, to you it is sin.’ See James 4:17

Jesus Christ gave Believers “the ministry and word of reconciliation” (See 2 Corinthians 5:17-20).

You can do it.
Be reconciled to your children. Forgive the hurts, so that satan won’t take advantage of the animosities, unforgiveness and bitterness, to keep on tormenting your descendants!

You can rescue your descendants from degeneracy!

Psalm. 112:1-2 KJV

Prayer4Today:

Note: I could give you prayer points, but identifying with you will help you pray better.

ABBA Father, thank you for the grace of parenthood.

I hereby forgive all my children for all the times they hurt me.

And I ask also, that you Our Father, work-in all my children, to also forgive me and everyone else who wronged them.

I acknowledge that children are a sacred trust from you to us, and I did not uphold the integrity of your Word to them.

I take responsibility for, and I identify with the sins of all my descendants and ask forgiveness.

Thank you for the forgiveness of sins and cleansing from all unrighteousness.

I hereby dedicate/rededicate my bloodline to you, which includes every one of my human descendants.

I also dedicate/rededicate all those who are joined to my family by marriage, faith or adoption, for they are now my household/family.

I proclaim that we are Holy unto you, and I believe that you shall not allow your Holy ones to be corrupted by the decadence in the world.

In unity of faith, we stand against all forms of sexual immoralities, abuses, violence, lawlessness and other evils.

We hereby revoke/abrogate all satanic rights, and shut down all the access routes of the evil spirits that crossed generational lines: including all the familiar/familial spirits, and all others evil spirits, who are on assignments, or who have attached themselves to our family, due to ancestral covenants and pacts of the generations preceding.

I command to go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ, All the evil spirits that influence, enforce, or enable disobedience, rebellion, addictiveness, gender confusions, identity crises; including mental health disorders, chemical imbalances, mediocrity, poverty mentality, marital strife, suicidal tendencies, hardship, and other evils.

I declare that evils cannot function under any guise or disguise, against anyone who pertains or relates to me and mine.

I am blessed beyond curses and the fruits of my body are all blessed as well.

I declare that God’s Spirit of wisdom and understanding, counsel and might, knowledge and reverence of God, shall be upon, and flow through all my grandchildren.

I proclaim that my grandchildren shall walk in the God ordained pathways of righteousness, justice, empathy, meekness, divine health, excellence, and prosperity.

Supernatural favors and unlimited goodness shall be the testimonies of my descendants.

And Kings shall come to their risings, and whatsoever stands against my grandkids, shall surrender to them.

And Surely, goodness and mercies shall follow all my descendants, all the days of their lives, and they shall uphold the righteous standards of God, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ ♥️

#9 Prayer Focus for Today: Families by biology, marriage, adoption, and faith.

Hebrews 11:6 KJV

Greetings, people of God. We know that God hears the prayers of His children and abhors that of sinners (See Proverbs 15:8, 28:9, John 9:31, 1 Peter 3:12).

To enjoy these blessings, benefits, and rewards in Christ Jesus, “you must be born again”. (John 3:3) Ask me How!

Recap:
The past days, our Prayer Focuses have been very revelatory.

Earlier, in “The Release of Delayed Blessings “, we received insights of how to make our spiritual blessings in heavenly places work for us in our physical reality.

Galatians 3:13

The next day as we prayed for our “General Wellbeing”, we received clarity of how to sustain the manifested blessings, through commitment to God and our causes; as well as right-living.

One of the take-aways from the prophetic-prayer for Me is that:
‘ not only did God give us Promises, He has given us His exceedingly great and precious promises, See 2 Peter 1:4. Hallelujah.

2 Peter 1:4 KJV

I encourage you to read up on the past “Prayer Focus“, for they contain a wealth of revelations to help you overcome your challenges Biblically.

Today, as we pray for our families by biology, marriage, adoption, and faith, we shall utilize the blessings, benefits and rewards of our Christian faith.

Hold Fast to these as you pray:
In order to help your faith and to pray appropriately, a few reminders:

a). Blessings: If you are born again, you are blessed already and no longer under curses- Read Galatians 3:13-14.

Galatians 3:14 KJV

b). Benefits: healings, deliverance, prosperity, forgiveness etc, are yours already in Christ Jesus – Read Matthew 15:26, Romans 10:13, 2 Corinthians 8:9, 1 John 1:9, Isaiah 53:5, 1 Peter 2:24.

c). Rewards: God rewards diligence – See Hebrews 11:6, Psalm 127:3-5, Luke 6:35.

Prayer4Today:

ABBA Father, we thank you for every member of our families as we present them to you today.

Thank you Father, for the salvation of our household, and your Spirit of excellence that resides in them.

We ask that our families never depart from You the only True and Living God, but instead, that they would grow in intimacy with you.

1 John 1:9

We ask and receive forgiveness for all bloodline sins, and affirm that in Christ Jesus, we have been blessed beyond curses, delivered from ancestral yokes, and shall not partake of the illnesses in the world.

I call a stop today, to all evil trends and unrighteousness among us, and command all the evil spirits motivating marital troubles, sexual immorality, drug abuse/addictions, violence, strife, jealousy, hardships, poverty mentality, mental health issues, and all other evils, should go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ.

I release economic prosperity, the fear and love of God, healthier lifestyle, longevity, and all the benefits of salvation, to all my family members.

I affirm that we are the definition of physical, mental, material, and spiritual blessings.

I declare that we are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, therefore, the exaltation of righteousness is evident in our lives for anyone to see.

I rededicate our families to You O God, and declare that our generations shall serve You alone, and our bloodlines shall not be corrupted by the lust of the eyes, lost of the flesh, idolatry, occultism or false religious practices.

Thank You ABBA for the outpouring of Your Spirit in our families, and for the grace to be the light and salt in our world, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

#8 Prayer Focus for Today: General Wellbeing: 

2 Corinthians 9:8 KJV

Bible Base: Isaiah 45:19:

“I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.” Isaiah  45:19 KJV

We know how challenging the economy of our nation is. Although prices are increasing, incomes are not increasing. 

Unless there is a paradigm shift,  many, who depend on the world economy, will face severe hardship.

This is the time for you to take your Christianity to another level. You can cause your paradigm to shift.

How?

Psalm 46:10 KJV

a). Clearly define WHO your Source and Resources is, and b). HOW you want to live your life here on earth.

The choices are yours to make. For what you allow or fear, will continue to torment you, but when you confront it, it loses its power of torment! (See Job 3:25, Matthew 18:18)

You can choose to live by being fearful of tomorrow,  or you can live by having faith in the God who owns tomorrow.

God did not call us to serve him in vain. He promised a just reward, and the benefits of Salvation belong to us already.

Hebrews 11:6 KJV

Can you relate with the scripture that says “without faith it is impossible to please Him (God), for the one who comes to Him MUST BELIEVE that: (a) He exists, and (b) He rewards those who diligently seek Him”? See Hebrews 11:6

The Believer in Christ has benefits that distinguish us from non-believers. We are Blessed already and have access to all of God’s resources!

God has not only given us promises, He has given us “His exceedingly great and precious promises” See 2 Peter 1:4

Prayer translates the promises of God into reality, while right-living sustains it.

For a foundational understanding, Read up the #6 Focus For Today: The Release of Delayed Blessings” as well as my other Postings. 
2 Peter 1:4 KJV

#Prayer4Today:

Father God, We are thankful that you are righteous, truthful, trustworthy and can not lie.

We are also grateful for your exceedingly great and precious promises, the real time blessings, benefits and rewards that are available to us your children.

We affirm O God that you are our Source and Resources for  life, health, wealth, protection, security, and general welfare. We live,  move, have our  ‘being’, and can do all things in You!

Thank you Father GOD, for the awareness that you are able to make all grace abound to us, and that even  when people are saying ‘there’s economic hardship’, we shall be declaring that we are economically  prosperous.

We declare O God that You are causing all things to work together for our good, for we love you, and we are called according to your purpose.

We affirm that doors of opportunities are opening daily,  our goods and services are in high demand,  and we live above the limitations of this world’s economic system.

We affirm that we are citizens of heaven, and thus our needs are met according to your riches in glory, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ. 

There shall be none homeless, sick, indebted, or demonized among us, for we and our offsprings are Holy unto you.

As you blessed the house of Potiphar because of Joseph, bless all who are connected or related to us by biology, by marriage, and by faith. 

Bless our Nations and communities O God, as well as our support network 🙏🏽 . So that they will also participate in enjoying the blessings that you give  without sorrows, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ ♥️ 

Thank you for confirming my words and performing my counsels in Jesus’s name.

#7 Prayer Focus for Today: Our Nations & Leaders.

The event of the past few days was a rude awakening.  So much hate filled speeches and misdirected vitriol, that resulted in shots being fired at a public event.

The anxiety, uncertainty and fears of what the future will bring, affects everybody in all the facets of the society. 

Small businesses aren’t growing, and can barely pay their overheads because people have reprioritized their priorities, and shop for bare necessities only.

Our world as we know it is changing so much so fast. 

Not to be left out, the weather too joined the fight to make humans suffer more. 

However, although the state of affairs of the world seem scary, but, as Christians we should become more prayerful than fearful.

We should confront issues at the root, pray for all the people spewing hate that aggravate the situation, and pray also for the leaderships of all the nations of the world. So that we can enjoy peace in this world that God gave us.

Bible Base: 1 Timothy 2 1-2:
“Supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men…and for all in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life…(1 Timothy 2:1-2)

It is important to note that when we pray for others we can lead a quiet and peaceable life!

Let us Prayerfully follow the prayer protocol in the above scripture 

#Prayer4Today:

1 Supplication: Is an act of worship when we humbly ask God for help.

Psalm 61:1 KJV

1b. ABBA Father,  we acknowledge that you rule over the nations of the world, and as our King and our God, we ask that your mercy continues to prevail over judgment. 

2 Prayer: is the divinely approved means of communicating with God, who is Spirit.

John 4:24 KJV

2b Father God,  we present the nations of the world before you, especially our Nation of citizenship and our nation of residence, we acknowledge our sinfulness and plead the blood of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of sins,  and cleansing from all unrighteousness. 

2c We stand against violence, vitriolic speeches, politically motivated killings, deaths and destructions: we command them to stop at once and all the evil evil spirits fuelling these, are to stand down immediately.

2d. We command it to be destroyed at once, all the evil structures or systems that have been put together to cause unrest, promote fears, manipulate people and increase hateful behaviors. 

2e Have your way O God. And let the tokens of liars be frustrated: Roll away our reproaches and establish your righteous standards once again.

3. Intercession: involves praying for others.

3a We come against and command to go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ, all the forces of evil that are influencing violence, hatred, manipulation, falsehood, selfish ambitions, treachery, depravity, indoctrination, assassination,  murder,  destructions, and their evil relatives.

3b. We lift up our political, religious,  and business leaders: and ask O God that you call them to order, so that the fear of God and not selfish ambitions will be their motivation. 

3c We pray for humanity, and ask that your kingdom come, and your will be done on earth as it is in heaven, to your glory and praise.

3d We pray for the numerous hostages, their families and their captors, that you visit them as appropriate, either to judge or to liberate.

3e We pray that the released hostages will process their trauma appropriately and move on to live a God-honoring lifestyle, and that their hostages will be visited by DIvine justice. 

3f We pray for the families of those who died due to political and religious violence, and ask that you help them process their griefs appropriately, so that they will be healed in their minds, and body, and not live in bitterness, anger and vengeance. 

3g  Maranatha! Come quickly Lord. We need you.

4 Thanksgiving: involves the expression of gratitude to God.

4b. We are deeply grateful 🙏🏽 O! God, that you did not allow our nation to degenerate to chaos, and anarchy, when you caused the bullet to miss a presidential candidate. 

4c. We are also thankful that you are using this event to call to order, the various political groups and to restrain their excesses.

4d. Thank you Father that the winner of the forthcoming elections will be aligned to your will and purposes of the nations.

4e.Thank you Father for bringing peace to the middle east, and subduing all the Islamization agendas in Africa, and Europe.

4f. Help us God to live above the economic, socio-political and religious dictates of this present evil world.

By your enabling your grace we remain light and salt, in good health and abundance, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ ♥️

Reproductive Freedom: My Personal Testimony:

When we talk about reproductive freedom, I’m glad my momma did not abort me. If she had denied me my right to live, would I be here today?

 Against all odds, my momma(great woman) freely gave me the right to live,  She my momma, sacrificed for me, even though I was such a sickly child. 

 I cost my parents so much- financially, socially, emotionally, etc. But they did their best for me and my other 9 siblings.

I am so thankful that my momma and papa were God fearing and God honoring, and that they put my right to life above their personal wellbeing. Stupid, you may think they were, but they made the right choice to let me live. They gave me a chance to live.

For choosing to let me live, I  am grateful to such great parents, Mary and Amos,of blessed memory. 

And here I am today a blessing to my world, and the Lead in life changing internet missionary initiatives with global outreaches, that are committed to saving souls and building lives for the Kingdom of God.

Because my momma freely gave me life against all odds, should I have done any less?

Of course not, I too gave birth to a brood of God fearing and God honoring children. And they too are perpetuating that Godly heritage.

It’s a generational thing.

 Becareful of what you are pioneering – that would be the legacy to the next generation, and generations following. 

Remember, curses and blessings are handed down.

 And if you are born again, remember also that Christ Jesus has truly set us free: we are not in bondage to the spirit that works in the children of disobedience.

 Therefore, make sure to stay free, and not  become a slave of philosophies, arguments, ideologies, imaginations and every high thing that are being exalted against the knowledge of God. 

Instead, cast them down (everything contrary to God’s will), and be obedient to God’s will to the last. References to Galatians 5:1, 2nd Corinthians 10:5

Above all, remember also that God is faithful, and will always make a way where there is a will, even though there is no way!

If you need deliverance from evil generational trends, curses, etc, let’s chat  via messenger or send me an mail to: spiritualwarrior24@gmail.com 

I am glad to be alive.
