Prayer Focus for Today: Confront – False Accusations & Injustices.

Prayer Goals: 

Deliverance from the evil trend of false accusations and injustices

With many people, false accusations or injustices is the norm of their lives. They can’t remember a time when they have been treated fairly, or not accused of something they did not do.

What a horrible and painful existence. 

Until you’ve had this experience, it’s not likely you’ll understand how much it hurts when you have suffered an injustice or are falsely accused. 

False accusations or Injustices, wounds the soul, and leaves you feeling worthless, and victimized; It cages  and puts the accused under the domination of the accuser.

If you do not confront false accusations or injustices, you’ll resent those who spread the falsehoods, and enable them to bully you.

It gets worse because, you’ll feel betrayed by those who heard, and never rose up to defend you. 

If you allow it to continue unaddressed, you’ll feel all alone,  low in self esteem and full of shame. Because, you’ll think everyone believes the falsehood.

If you can relate,  or know anyone who has been through that experience, the Good News is that,in Christ Jesus, you cannot remain a victim!

Bible Base: 1 John 5:4
“For whatever is born of God is victorious over the world; and this is the victory that conquers the world, even our faith.” 1 John 5:4 AMPC.
Deliverance Prayer:

Father, you are the righteous judge of the universe,  and I know you will do right by me.

Thank you for being my defense,  my advocate and the lover of my soul ❤️ 

Right now DAD, I need help getting over this hurt and anger in my soul, against those who brought unfounded charges against me.

Help me O God to get past these false accusations,  and other injustices.

I hold fast to your Word that no one can lay anything to my charge, for I stand justified by my faith in Christ Jesus.

Although this hurts deeply, and I feel betrayed by those who know the facts, but who did not speak up: in deference to your Word, I forgive everyone of them, and rest in you to vindicate me.

I ask that this be deleted out of my consciousness, subconsciousness, and deep consciousness, for I refuse to allow this bitter experience to continue as a norm in my life. 

*I refuse to allow this to be a trend in my life.

*I refuse to accept the status quo of being rewarded evil for good.

*I refuse to  be unappreciated, maligned, and backstabbed, or slandered, and condemned by selfish, self opinionated, manipulators, who refuse to take responsibility for their life.

*I refuse to be that person who takes the fall for someone else’s unrepentant actions.

*I refuse to be the victim of situations or circumstances, or suffer any form of abuse.

I know who I am in Christ. 

I am victorious by my faith in Christ Jesus, and there is no condemnation to me for I am led by, and walk in the Spirit, and do not fulfill the lust of the sinful nature.

Thank you Father that sin no longer has dominion over me. 

 I acknowledge that I sinned against your Holiness, and I am grateful for your forgiveness of sins and cleansing from all unrighteousness. 

I rebuke all the evil spirits that are trying to influence people against  my relationships and  career.  For, to subvert a person in his/her cause, You will not allow,O God.

I command to go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ, the lying spirits of falsehood,  manipulation,  blaming, treachery, betrayal, as well as those influencing bullying, violence, control, domination, anger, bitterness, resentment, vindictiveness, enmity, variance and their relatives.

I declared that all the evil seeds of slander, gossip, and related evils are destroyed.

Thank you Father, for healing my hurts, and for granting me the grace to forgive them, and to move on. 

Thank you Father that all the handwriting of ordinances working against me has been nailed to the Cross.

From today, I walk in the liberty that I have in Christ Jesus and refuse to be drawn into any form of bondage to satan and his human agents.

I am free  from all satanic poisons, in the matchless name of Jesus  Christ. 

If this prayer ministered to a need, please email me with a testimony.

God bless you and keep you victorious, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

Prayer Focus for Today: Get rid of slander (Part 1)

Going forward with yesterday’s Prayer Focus on “Grace to keep Making Right Choices’, we have to get rid of slander as God’s Word commands in  Ephesians 4:31:

“Let all bitterness and indignation and wrath (passion, rage, bad temper) and resentment (anger, animosity) and quarreling (brawling, clamor, contention) and slander (evil-speaking, abusive or blasphemous language) be banished from you, with all malice (spite, ill will, or baseness of any kind). Ephesians 4:31 AMPC

Slander is derived from the Greek word ‘diabolos’, 

Slanderer describes satan, who is the personification of evils. 

Slander effectively  describes some of satan the devil’s activities against God, and Humanity ( See Matthew 4:8-11, Revelation 12:9). 

Slander involves weaponizing falsehood in order to malign, defame, or destroy another person’s reputation, for your own benefits, also include gossiping,  backbiting, destructive criticism, and related evils.

Slander is deeply rooted in pride, delusions,  anger, unforgiveness, ungodly ambitions, resentment. jealousy, false self image, etc, and originates from an evil and wicked heart.

Slander opens doors for evil spirits, to use humans to perpetuate acts of violence, against other humans, which results in death of humans and destruction of properties. 

If you are a slanderer, you are satan’s human agent, and satan is fulfilling his mission to kill, steal and destroy humans through you.

Enough! Stop already! Refuse to be satan’s agent!

Slander is a common denominator not only among the political class, but also among Christians. 

Paul encountered it in his day,  hence he wrote in Philippians 1:15 (AMPC) that some

“… [actually] preach Christ (the Messiah) [for no better reason than] out of envy and rivalry (party spirit), but others are doing so out of a loyal spirit and goodwill.”.

I have had my fair share of character defamation, by some internet  Christian ministers, who slandered my reputation, in order to have people leave our ministry pages and groups, to join theirs.

The reason their slander has been working against them is because my focus is on spreading the Gospel. While theirs has been on building a followership, and a name without regard to how they hurt others. 

I am not delusional. I do know  that the Mission is to preach the Gospel to all creatures. 

I know  also that God rewards diligence. 

Hence we do not solicit for financial aids in all our ministries, and are focused on doing God’s Work, when, where, and how HE called us to do it.

We work with Biblical Principles.

My attitude is similar to Paul’s who clarified his earlier statement as follows:

“[16] The latter [proclaim Christ] out of love, because they recognize and know that I am [providentially] put here for the defense of the good news (the Gospel). [17]  But the former preach Christ out of a party spirit, insincerely [out of no pure motive, but thinking to annoy me], supposing they are making my bondage more bitter and my chains more galling. [18]  But what does it matter, so long as either way, whether in pretense [for personal ends] or in all honesty [for the furtherance of the Truth], Christ is being proclaimed? And in that I [now] rejoice, yes, and I shall rejoice [hereafter] also. See Philippians 1:16-18, AMPC.

When you slander others, you attract destruction, and tell satan that you are in his camp.

Prayer Action:

Conduct a soul search- Apply the principle of Psalm 139: 23-24

Psalms 139:23-24 NLT

[23] Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. [24] Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.

I earnestly pray that your mind will be renewed and you will truly get rid of slander in your life.

See part 2 for deliverance prayers- same time tomorrow.

Prayer Focus for Today: Overcome Bigotry to embrace the God-kind of Love.

According to Dictionary.com, Bigotry refers to  “stubborn and complete intolerance of any creed, belief, or opinion that differs from one’s own” 

Bigotry is also synonymous to dogmatism, sectarianism, discrimination, bias, narrow-mindedness, etc.

Many of us who are closet religious bigots, racists, haters, etc., cannot tolerate those who are not privy to the revelations that we have about certain things. 

It is not Godly to be hostile and condemning of those who are at different levels in their spiritual growth and understanding.

The goal of the Christian life is to develop Christlikeness in worship, character and service.

We are called to Preach the Gospel (Good News) to every creature, and not to run them off with our religious bigotry.

In Romans 10:2, Paul bears record that the Jews had a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.

Their affection for God was out of sync with who God is: 

The Bible says,

“God is love” (See 1 John 4:7-8)

Unlike the Pharisees who were religious bigots,  you should refuse to be locked into a concept of God that puts Him in a straightjacket.

If you do not love others as God loves you and them, you err not knowing the Scriptures. And you will become hateful towards others.

Love is what shows whose child you are ( See I John 3)

Religious bigotry often deteriorates to prejudice.  

Hence the pharisees could not accept that:

“the Grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men” (Titus 2:11 NASB1995)

Prejudice makes people spew hateful words and make derogatory comments.

Read how the Pharisees scornfully inferred that Jesus Christ was born out of sexual immoralities. They also made derogatory remarks about him being the son of a carpenter (See John 8:39-41, Matthew 13:55, Luke 4:22).

The apostles were also referred to as unlearned men (See Acts 4:13).

We should overcome that narrow-mindedness about God, and embrace the truth that, though God hates sins, He loves the sinners.

We should give out the messages that point sinners to the love of God, and not highlight their sins, unless it is to point them to the forgiveness that is available in Christ.

“God is love…and as He is so are we in this world” His desire is that all should come to repentance.  Hence we preach the Good News.

The Good News tells people what Christ accomplished for them. It points people to a new life in Christ, and lets them know that God forgives their past, and that HE provides the help they need to make the new life work.

And when they accept Jesus Christ, we instruct them in righteousness till they come to maturity.

We need to overcome that mindset of Bigotry and embrace the love of God with a renewed mind. 

Let us Pray:

Father God, thank you for loving me while I was lost in sin.

Thank you for the grace of salvation that appeared to me and to all others as well.

I am grateful that your goodness led me to repentance, for It is all by your grace. 

I acknowledge my Bigotry, intolerance, anger, frustrations and holier-than-thou-attitude, which has alienated people from Christ and the Church.

I receive forgiveness of sins and cleansing from all unrighteousness.

I command to go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ,  and with their relatives, all the evil spirits influencing me to behave like the devil’s advocate,  as well as the spirits of scorn, bitterness, self righteousness, discrimination,  prejudices, hate, and low self esteem. 

I declare that the love  of God poured in me by the Holy Spirit, enables me to function with the right concept of God.

From today, I declare that the Word of God forms the framework for my thoughts, 

gains ascendancy in my life, and produces the results of what it says, in all aspects and facets of my life. 

From henceforth, I walk the pathways of righteousness, and be a blessing to all peoples.

 I affirm that I will refrain from cursing or use swear words, I will only do to others what I wish to be done to me, 

I declare that I will be quick to hear, slow to speak and never respond in anger. 

Thank you Father for working ‘in me’ both to will and to do of your good pleasure, and also for the life I now live by faith in Christ Jesus. 

Use me mightily Father, to propagate the Gospel and draw many to you, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ. Amen

Finally, Luke 6:35 NLT

  “Love your enemies! Do good to them. Lend to them without expecting to be repaid. Then your reward from heaven will be very great, and you will truly be acting as children of the Most High, for he is kind to those who are unthankful and wicked.”

Prayer Focus for Today: Intervention by the Way-Maker 2.

E). Are you at the dead-end zone in your finances, health, marriage, entrepreneurship , workplace, spiritual problems, etc.?

Fear not, stand still, refuse to be confused or doubtful. Stay resolute in your trust of God as you face these issues.

Previously in part 1, we discussed  how God, with a show of power delivered His people Israel, from their oppressor.

And before they could breathe a sigh of relief, their oppressors came after them galloping on horses and chariots!

And before them, was the red sea, (they had no boats, and there was no way they could swim across). You can be sure they were scared stiff.

And besides them were the wilderness 

 Behind them, Pharoah and his armies were almost upon them.

They were locked in a hopeless situation, with no escape route!

But God showed up!

The Way-Maker opened up a road In the Red Sea and God’s people went forward!

What a scary and depressing situation that was for them until God showed.

Are you having such an experience, locked in, hopeless, helpless,  sick, disabled and dropped by Medicaid, yet not qualified fir Medicare, etc?

Be reassured that God knows where you are at, and what you are going through.

Nothing in creation is hidden from His sight – See Hebrews 4:13.

For the Bible says,  “The eyes of the Lord search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him”

See Chronicles 16:9, NLT.

Just as He our God and Father made a way for the Israelites in Old Testament days, He is still in the deliverance business, HE will make a WAY for you!

I am a living testimony of how God can snatch you from the edge of the precipice, and bless you beyond your wildest imagination. 

11). Prayer Points:

a). Thank God for where you are at, and for all the problems besetting you.

b)  Recommit your life, dreams, goals and aspirations, to God, and declare that your heart is steadfast, and you have strong confidence in Him.

c) Acknowledge that He is the WAY Maker and you strongly believe that with His help, you will achieve His purposes for your life.

d). Affirm that all unrelenting Problems are none existent,  in the face of the WAY Maker who opens doors that no one can shut. 

e) Command all fears, anxieties, and uncertainties,to dissipate right away.

f) Place your right hand on your head and bless yourself . For, you are the prophet of your life.

 Speak the word of faith over yourself, and believe in your heart that your circumstances have changed. 

g) Thank God for the speedy response to this prayer .

h) Affirm that you will be quick to hear, understand, and obedient, to follow up to do all that God drops in your heart to do, in order to advance. 

12). My Prayer for you:

I declare that from today forward,  your life will count for more, and those who despised, and took advantage of you, will look at you and their eyes will have respect for God.

13. The blessings of God that makes us Rich without sorrows are upon you, attracting goodwill from people.

14. Your circumstance has changed, for Surely, Goodness, Mercy and Favor are working for you, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

Prayer Focus for Today: The Omnipotent God.

Today, let us grow our faith in God,  as we bring into focus the omnipotence of God.

1). God created all things out of nothing- See Genesis 1:

1b). Prayer Point: Be thankful that God who has the power and ability to do all things, is causing All things to work together for your good already. 

2). God is unquestionable:- He does according to His will, (See Daniel 4:35).

2b) Prayer Points:  

2bi) Affirm that since it is God’s will to give you the Kingdom, you are assured that HE will not withhold anything good from you (See Luke 12:32).

2bii) Be thankful that since it is God who is working ‘in you’ both to will and ‘to do of His’ good pleasure (See Philippians 2:13), no charge against you can stand against you!

2biii) Declare that whatsoever you lay your hands to do must prosper for you are led by the Spirit of God and doing His perfect will.

3). God is unfrustrateable: Nothing can frustrate or thwart His plans (See Isaiah 14:27. Job 42:2.

3b. Prayer Points:  Affirm that you are in alignment with God’s will, which is to prosper you, give you hope, and a future (Jeremiah 29:11).

3bi) Declare that your future is secure, and that your goals cannot be frustrated, for Christ in you is the hope of glory.

4biv) Thank God that you have clarity, understanding and you are able to make right choices, and complete everything you set out to accomplish.

5. HE is God forever! (See Isaiah 26:4-5) Which means that there is continuity with Him.  Quite unlike some elected/appointed officials who have their policies canceled by their predecessors or opponents, God is Eternal!!!!

That God is God forever, should be very reassuring to you. It means that the good work HE started in your life, He will continue it to the end.

Let Us Pray:

Thank You Father God for upholding our universe by the word of your power.

Your children have prayed,  and I ask Father God, that you show up as Omnipotent God and speedily send answers to the prayers,  in the matchless name of Jesus Christ ♥️. 

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, TheSpiritualWarrior, July 22, 2024

Prayer Focus for Today: Grandchildren 

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

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

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 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 belief 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 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!

Through knowledge shall the just be delivered -Proverbs 11:9b

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

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

That is Spiritual Warfare! 

I stood my grounds against all unrighteousness and intentionally began to live as God’s righteousness in this life!

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

Refuse to hide behind obsolete excuses that your children don’t want you to be a part of their lives, and 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, and keep on tormenting your bloodlines!

You can rescue your descendants from degeneracy!

Part 2:

Let us Pray:

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 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 the rights and shut down all  access routes of evil spirits that  crossed generational lines; including the familiar/familial spirits, and all others who are on assignments and have attached themselves to our family, due to ancestral covenants and pact of the generations preceding.

I command to go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ,  All the evil spirits that influence/enforce/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 my grandchildren.

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 their testimonies 

 Kings shall come to their rising and whatsoever stands against them shall surrender to them.

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

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, TheSpiritualWarrior, July 19th, 2024

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

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.

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. 

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

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.

Part 2:

Let Us Pray:

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.

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 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 families. And I affirm that we are the definitions 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, list 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. 

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly,  TheSpiritualWarrior,  July 18th 2024.

Prayer Focus for Today: General Wellbeing: 

Bible Base: Isaiah 45:19:

 “…I did not call the descendants of Jacob [to a fruitless service], saying, Seek Me for nothing [but I promised them a just reward]. I, the Lord, speak righteousness (the truth–trustworthy, straightforward correspondence between deeds and words); I declare things that are right. [John 18:20.]” Isaiah 45:19 AMPC

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?

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 by having faith in the God who owns tomorrow.

As our opening scripture states in my paraphrase, ‘God has not called us to serve him in vain. He promised a just reward. There are benefits in Salvation!

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 prayer Focus for July 15th   Titled- The Release of Delayed Blessings “ as well as my other Postings. 

Part b: 

Let Us Pray :

We are thankful that you are righteous, truthful, trustworthy and straightforward.

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

We affirm 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 economic prosperity. Hallelujah 

We declare O God that You are causing All things to work together for our good, for we love you and 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, marriage and by faith. 

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

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

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, TheSpiritualWarrior, July 17th 2024

Prayer Focus for Today: Our Nations & Leaders.

The event of the past few days was a rude awakening.  As Christians we should be more prayerful for the leaderships of the numerous nations of the world.

As our opening scriptures says, “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)

Which means that praying for others is actually for your benefit – so that you can lead a quiet and Peaceable life!

We will pray according to the laid down protocol in the verses. 

Let us Pray:

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

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.

#5 Prayer Focus for Today: The Forgiving God

Many of us, due to our upbringing, religious indoctrination or conditioning, past traumatic events, perfectionism, and the ‘holier-than-you- mentality,   have developed guilt-complex and sin consciousness.

When I suffered from a guilt-complex, I clung to the doctrine of salvation by works, self isolated, self sabotaged, experienced diminished self-worth, formed destructive habits and was full of criticisms. 

If you can relate, please know that there is relief and deliverance from all these negative feelings in Christ Jesus. 

In referencing  what Jesus Christ accomplished for Humanity, the Bible  states, “Who knew no sin was made to be sin for us, so that we might become the righteousness of God in him” (2 Corinthians 5:21 KJV)

If Jesus Christ has been made sin for us, then sin is no longer the issue when you are in Christ. 

Since there is nothing you can  give in exchange for your soul (Mark 8:37), and God is not unrighteous to try someone twice for the same offense: which would amount to double jeopardy; Righteousness is the issue.

Clearly, the Bible teaches that we are justified by  faith in Christ, made righteous by His work, and given the ability to walk in righteousness (Read Galatians 2:15-21; 3:24, Romans 3:28; 5:1; Ephesians 2:8: Titus 3:5, 1Corinthians 1:18, 2 Corinthians 1:3; 1 Thessalonians 5:23).

The simple truth is that  when you are born again, you can not be comfortable living in sin.

 Hence, many of us struggle with accepting that God forgives and blots out records of sin (See Psalm 103)

It took me a while to appreciate the grace-mechanism known as FORGIVENESS of SINS, which states that:

‘if we confess our sins,  God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness’ (1 John 1:9)

Therefore, If you commit sin, confess it to God at the place of prayers, and BELIEVE  that you are forgiven as His Word says in 1 John 1:9

You need to be intentional in the battle to overcome guilt-complex and embrace the forgiveness of sin that is available in Christ Jesus.

#DeliverancePrayer  for dealing with guilt complex:

Father God,  thank you for my salvation, deliverance, prosperity, forgiveness, cleansing, and restoration.

Thank you for giving me your righteousness and the ability to continue in righteousness, for sin no longer has power over me.

I renounce all religious indoctrination, ingrained learned behaviors, and triggers that keep me in bondage to unforgiveness and guilt- complex.

 I declare that I am no longer in bondage or controlled by the aforementioned issues.

I command to go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ, all the evil spirits influencing triggers, punitive behaviors, feelings of helplessness, lack of self worth, guilt responses, feelings of remorse, negative self talk, emotional distress, sadness, shame, anxiety, depression and related evils.

I Pronounce myself free from all evil self-perpetuating patterns, I let go of all destructive habits and self-righteousness.

I forgive myself, and everyone that I have not forgiven. 

I receive forgiveness of sins, cleansings from all unrighteousness, the joy of salvation, and the truth that I…..(name) am accepted in the Beloved.

Thank you, God, for even if my heart condemns me, You are greater than my heart  and know everything (1 John 3:20).

Thank you for being the God who forgives me, and remembers my sins no more, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ ♥️
