Day8 of the 21 days of Prayer Series:

Subject: Restoration 8- A New Beginning.

 Today, my mind was flooded with thoughts on those who suffered losses-spouses, children, parents, properties.

How are they processing it? What will the outcome be for them?

 Some suffer losses and have mental health issues. 

Whereas, some  recover and have abundance of blessings. 

Which reminds me of Ruth the Moabitess-a childless young widow.

Ruth was no stranger to loss. Both her father in law and brother-in-law also died. She was a woman acquainted with grief. 

But she had encountered God through her mother-in-law.  

And when faced with a choice to return to her people, she chose to continue her relationship with  God, despite her losses.

Although her mother in law tried to dissuade her with the gory details of past failures and future hardships, Ruth held fast to her faith in God. 

Though her sister-inlaw Orpah returned to her family Ruth couldn’t not abandon her mother in law who was grieving too. 

And God rewarded her fully for her faith and how she lovingly cared for her mother-in-law. 

Read the Story in the book of Ruth.

Are you feeling hopeless because of your losses?

Let the story of Ruth encourage you.

If you need a spouse, God is still in the business of joining people.

Whatever your losses or your needs are, God is still Provider, Protector,  Rewarder of diligence, and Restorer.

Be faithful. Be dedicated to doing the right things. 

The Bible says in Jonah 2:8 that “they that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy “.

If Ruth had considered the hopelessness of her situation with her mother-in-law, and refrained from going with her, what would her story be?

Ruth did not observe lying vanities. She obtained mercy from God. She married well, had a son, and became  the great grandmother of King David and an ancestor of Jesus Christ . 

God will restore you to greater glory. Don’t give up.

My prayer is that you should continue to be steadfast in your faith and let God be God in your life. 

I stand against all hindrances and lying vanities that are trying to distract you from the path of progress and excellence.

Be restored and enjoy peace with prosperity  in the matchless name of Jesus Christ .

I am taking emails  and prayer requests .

Day6 of the 21 days Prayer Series.

Subject: Transformation 6: Deliver our children from trauma O God.

We respond differently to intensely stressful situations. 

Children who were involved or who witnessed distressing events such as sexual abuses, accidents, natural disasters, etc. can be overwhelmed emotionally or physically. 

Because their coping skills are not yet developed, what happened to them or what they witnessed, can have long term effects on them.

Which reminds me of the traumatic event that defined Absalom’s life.

 Absalom, David’s third son, had a sister named Tamar. 

Tamar was raped (sexually abused) by her half brother Amnon. He humiliated her further by throwing her out.

In her shame and pain, she cried out to Absalom  who was her full-brother.  He took in his sister and cared for her, for her reputation was ruined!

For two years, their Father David never confronted the issues, and never did.

And for those 2 years, Absalom seethed in anger against both dad and brother.

Eventually, he arranged the cold blooded murder of his brother, and exiled himself, in fear of repercussions from dad. 

After an intervention by his uncle, both son and dad were partially reconciled after 3 years.

 But the underlying issues were never confronted.

Even though Absalom was pardoned, he was not restored. David refused to have any relationship with him.

For an additional 2 years he lived in disgrace in the same city that the events happened. 

Which further fed his deep seated anger and resentment against his dad.

In revenge, he began to stealthily undermine his father’s rule, to attract attention. But dad ignored him.

After 4 years, he cracked fully.  There was full-blown rebellion and he declared himself king.

A war ensued, and Absalom was killed. Read the bulk of the story in 2nd Samuel, chapters 13-19.

Although David regained his throne,  but, at what cost?

Many of us as parents may have traumatized our children further by our inactions and actions, thereby, deforming their personalities for life.

1). Can you relate to the issues raised in this narrative?

2). Are you currently isolated by your children?

3). Are you ready to 

restitute, reconcile and restore your children or be restored by them and lead a transformed life?

4). Are you ready to pray?

We must learn from the mistakes of others and not perpetuate them.

The Bible says,  in 1 Corinthians 10:11, that these things happened to them as examples, and are written for our admonition.

Pray again for rainfall for Southern California.

This is not the time to apportion blame or politicize the situation. 

From various news reports, we have been informed that the wildfires raging across Southern California are fuelled by the severe drought conditions, and strong winds.

Way back in 1 Kings 18: 16-45, Prophet  Elijah had a confrontation with King Ahab to establish spiritual boundaries and reinforce faith in God.

Prior to that, there was drought in the land, which was the direct consequence for idolatry and other evils.

And when Elijah intervened, the situation changed favorably for the people, and for the land.

As our picture post states, 

“Elijah was as human as we are, and yet when he prayed earnestly that no rain would fall, none fell for three and a half years! Then, when he prayed again, the sky sent down rain and the earth began to yield its crops.” James 5:17-18 NLT.

Thank you for praying before. This time,  let us pray for the skies to send down rain, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

Receive the Healing Anointing:

 Today, I release to you, the anointing of God’s Spirit that brings healings.  

Be healed in your body.

Be healed in your bones.

Be healed in your heart.

Be healed in your emotions.

I command that sickness to go away from you.

You are set free  from the infirmities of the mind, body and skeletal frame.

All the demonic hordes assigned to torment you are to go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ.

Receive the strength to go forward.  

Arise from that sickbed, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ. 

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, Ph.D., TheSpiritualWarrior,  January 22nd 2025.

AWESOME GOD (40) Showing His marvelous work.

Glory be to God. Today, our 40 days of spiritual exercises,  of fasting, prayers, Bible Reading and meditation on the Word, ends.

And what a glorious ending with Psalm 9:1 which says:

“I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.” Psalm 9:1 KJV.

#Testimony :

It was a great ride, filled with health challenges and spiritual attacks. But God showed up strong for us.

The past 3 days were like , “God, I’m just tired of all these things going on around me, please help me”.

The Good News is that despite all the satanic antics to distract us, we were still able to accomplish our goals, and have come out with more zeal to do His will.

I am glad to inform you that we are going to be making YouTube videos that will bring home to you,  our teachings on deliverance, healings, spiritual growth etc. 

As a trained Chaplain and Christian Spiritual Therapist, I give attention to details, and help you personalize your relationship with God,  through a daily faith-walk with Christ Jesus. 

I do pray that reading all the contents I shared with you, has helped your faith to grow more, and has made you aspire to live a life that displays the awesomeness of God.

Always remember that you are bought with a price and that your life belongs to Christ who bought your liberty with His life, so that you can display the virtues and perfection of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light’ (Read 1 Peter 1:23, 2:9-10).

Going forward, never let anything the devil sends you hold you down. 

As you accomplish your spiritual goals for life, you effectively incapacitate the devil, who is LIKE a roaring lion. 

Aim at being that person who knows what is right to do, and does it.

We are not of them who shrink  back in fear and are destroyed  We are of them that pressforward, overtake and overcome all odds, by our faith in Christ (Read Hebrews 10:39, 1 John 3:8,4:4, 5:4)

God bless and keep you safe always, prosper your endeavors and help you to always draw strength from Him, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ. 

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, Ph.D., #TheSpiritualWarrior, January 9th 2025.

AWESOME GOD (39) Our God is Excellent .

Let me boast about God, for He is the very best at love, justice, forgiveness,  restoration, beauty, etc

Everything in creation points to how Excellent God (majestic and glorious) is. 

In  Psalm 8 which is under meditation, we are told that God has set His glory above the heavens, established  strengths in order to silence foes and the avenger (Psalm 8:1-2, AMP).

Furthermore, when I consider everything in creation that God ordained and established, gratitude floods my heart that HE has made me “accepted in the Beloved”,  and His heir (Read Ephesians 1:6, Romans 8:17).

Therefore people of God, no matter what the devil is throwing at you, that is making you feel diminished, suicidal, or hopeless, know today that the devil is lying to you.

You are none of those things he satan keeps saying to you through his human agents.

You are the creation of an Excellent God. 

And if you are born again, the Excellency of God resides in you- not mediocrity, failures, abuses,  pedophilia,  wretchedness,  poverty, etc.

The potential for greatness is in you.

It is your responsibility to aspire, and not expire!

This new year is a new beginning for you. 

Cut off those satanic restraints holding you back and press forward till you DISPLAY EXCELLENCE in all aspects of life.

I stand with you in prayers and declare that mediocrity has ended. Poverty has ended. Rise and fall (gallopy life circumstances) have ended with all related evils.

I release to you now the fire of attraction, the grace of acceptance, the anointing for supernatural growth, excellence and productivity, to work with you,  in the matchless name of Jesus  Christ.

AWESOME GOD (38) Staying Unaffected by Slander.

In Psalm 7, the Psalmist is experiencing being slandered by Cush the Benjamite, and is crying out for vindication from God.

 I can relate with how painful it can be, when you are falsely accused or slandered.

  And also how much you really want to release fire and brimstone on those slanderers.

This year, it is important to rein in your anger, and not allow slanderous people to get under your skin. 

Firstly, you should work on building up your self esteem, so that people’s opinions of you would not hurt you.

Secondly, it is important that you must function as the righteousness of God: so that  if slandered, you can seek vindication from God, as David did. 

Thirdly, understand that there is a time to confront evil, and a time to resist the devil.

Slanderers have deep seated resentment and bitterness against their objects.

Confronting them will only  enable their vindictive manipulations and verbiage. 

So much so that, the more you attempt to vindicate yourself, the  more vitriol they will spew.

However,  If you need to take legal actions in order to redeem your reputation, go for it.

But generally, it is more effective to ask God to vindicate you, than to rely on getting justice from a corrupt  justice system. 

Fourthly, you resis slanderers by taking the shield of faith and the Sword of the Spirit: which means that you must engage their demons at the place of spiritual warfare. 

You do so by standing strong in faith and countering all their evil words, with the Word of God.

Action:

Declare that all the antics of slanderers, aimed at assassinating your character are nullified. 

Also affirm who God’s Word says you are, and command all the demons of slander, anger, resentment,  false accusations and their relatives to get out of your affairs.

You can also declare that everyone you were slandered  to, will receive confirmations in their spirit, that they were lied to.

Additionally, declare 1 John 3:8 and proclaim what it says.

Finally, make a decision not to be that person who slanders others, ever again, and will only speak words that bless, encourage and edify, in the name of Jesus Christ.

You may need to review a previous post about Slander, from my blog spiritualwarrior2016.blog 

We have just two more days before this series ends.

Tomorrow we read Psalm 8

#MyPrayer4you;

I declare that slanderers cannot function in your orbit, and that you will be a blessing in your world, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ. 

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, Ph.D., #TheSpiritualWarrior,  January 7th 2025

AWESOME GOD (33) Ask Big.

Don’t be that person who exhibits false humility just for the approval of others, while hiding a heart that is full of pride. (See Colossians 2:23).

Let us be real. For as Christians,  we serve a real God who says in His Word:

“Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.( Psalm 2:8 KJV)

The newer translations have the Word “heathen” as ‘Nations’

Can you even comprehend that God desires for us His children to intercede for the nations by identifying with them?

Our asking this year should be of Big Things, beyond our wildest imagination.

The earth and everything in it belongs to God and we who are Christian’s are heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ (See Psalm 24, John 1:12, Romans 8:17)

This year is not the time to selfishly focus on personal needs. Rather,  we should identify with those in nations where Christianity is outlawed, and intercede for them.

We should ask God to give us those nations for our inheritance so that His Kingdom in us will come to them (Luke 17:21, 24: 46-47).

Just adopt one nation this year, and keep on interceding for them.

Let Us Pray:

Father God, thank you for Your goodness which led us to repentance.

We ask also, that your goodness will lead to repentance, the peoples of Afghanistan,  Pakistan,  India, Bangladesh and  all the other nations where Christianity is not freely practiced. 

As your Oracle,  I come against all the evil spirits influencing war, rape,  enslavement of women, anti Christianity, pedophilia, child marriages, satanism, occultism, false religion, caste system, religion, witchcraft, idolatry, divination, sorcery. poverty, and their relatives, and reassign them all to the feet of Jesus Christ. 

For this cause the Son of God manifested, to destroy the works of the devil, therefore, all rebelliousness, evil heartedness, disobedience and sinful inclinations are to self-destruct at once.

We release a deep hunger and thirst for the Only True God and His Word, to saturate the lands,  just as water covers the seas.

We proclaim liberty of worship for the peoples.

And in unity of faith, we command to disintegrate all evil laws and decree that hindered the people from freely worshipping  the Only True and Living God.

We ask Father God that the evil administrations be  ? removed, and replaced with those who will rule in righteousness.

Thank you for filling our hearts with joy and our mouths with laughter, in this new year: For we rest in the knowledge that You, our Father, will cause all things to work together for our good, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

Our 40 days of fasting, prayers, and specified Bible reading ends on January 9th.

Tomorrow, reading and meditation will be from Psalm 3.

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, Ph.D., #TheSpiritualWarrior,  January 2nd 2025.

AWESOME GOD (31) Behave as the Royalty You Are:

When you accepted Jesus Christ Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you stopped being a commoner. You became what Apostle Peter refers to as. 

“a chosen generation, 

a royal priesthood, 

an holy nation, 

a peculiar people” (1 Peter 2:9)

Things changed for you.

The paradigm shifted for you.

All the ancestral yokes of mediocrity,  lack of socio-economic status, ignominy, rejection, etc, which held you bound and diminished you in life, dropped off you!

You became Royalty and a Priest of the Most High God!

Never allow anyone tell you that you are a nonentity! You are somebody!

You are Somebody, and “Accepted in the Beloved” (Ephesians 1:6)

Hit your chest and say, 

“I am somebody!”

You were recreated in Christ Jesus for His purposes! You have a purposeful life ahead of you!

Hallelujah!

In Revelation 1:6, we are informed also that He “has made us Kings and Priests to His God and Father” NKJV)

There is no question or controversy about it. You are a purpose-full Royalty.

The remaining verses of 1 Peter 2:9 says, 

“That ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light”:(1 Peter 2:9 KJV)

The Amplified Classic explains it better :

 “that you may set forth the wonderful deeds and display the virtues and perfections of Him Who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light: [Exod. 19:5, 6.]”

One of the major reasons why God left you here on earth,  after you became born again is so that you will “set forth the wonderful deeds and display the virtues of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light”

God desires that you be like Christ in your world,  hence our meditation from God’s Word today says,

“It is not for kings to drink wine; Nor for princes strong drink “ Proverbs 31:4 KJV.

WHY? (Proverbs 31:5)

“Lest they drink and forget the law, And perverse judgment of any of the afflicted” Proverbs 31:5.

How should you Behave? 

“Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour”. (1 Peter 5:8 KJV).

Sobriety is one of the distinctive qualities of the Royal Priesthood. 

If you desire to fulfill your purposes in life, stay sober. 

If you want to waste away your life, apply Proverbs 31:6-7

Conclusion:

As we go into this new season today, make that commitment to God and to yourself that you will always carry yourself as a Royal Priest.

Be that  Christian folk, who distinctively displays the virtues, and perfections of God: who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. 

You are the light of the world.  You must shine so that people will see the AWESOMENESS of God in you!
