“And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, For now the LORD hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.”

Isaac, the promised child of Abraham, was trapped in the land of Gerar by God who commanded him not to leave for Egypt. We could see how great he became while staying in the same land where there was famine. The scripture said, in Genesis 26:13

“And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:”

Despite all this greatness, he was opposed by Abimelech, King of Gerar, who sent him packing to the valley. While in the valley, he was left alone. The herdmens of Gerar still made sure he has no access to drinking water. Every well dug by His father’s servant, they filled up with earth but Isaac kept digging more well. He stick to what God told Him, “Dwell in this land… Genesis 26:2”, and he kept digging more wells until there wasn’t strive over a new well dug and which was filled with water. Don’t change location if you are under God’s instructions and leading, keep digging, no matter the oppositions. Stay tuned and keep trying in that field, don’t quit. In that carrier, don’t run. Keep improving on yourself. Dig down the more until your enemies come bowing before you. Stay within God’s instructions and keep digging deep, and those promises will be fulfilled this year in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

Happy Birthday to all celebrants and Happy Wedding Anniversary to those celebrating today. May you experience God’s fruitfulness in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.

To make the year better, as we’ve been digging the scriptures this week, we need to Keep Praying as we Keep Trying. This two processes are not to be separated. We don’t just keep going from pillar to post without praying about the issues at hand, also, we don’t keep praying without taking the action of trying Again and Again, this two processes should go concurrently. We need to understand that, prayer changes things but God also wants us to take actions. It’s time to Praying while Acting.

We are all familiar with the story of Elijah. God called and promise to give rain but it wasn’t pouring yet. Then Elijah decided to pray for the rain. There is a lesson to learn here, He still needed to Pray to God fervently to send His promises. You need to pray for those promises to come to pass come what may. Then as he was praying, he kept sending his servant to check for the rain. He kept checking till the seventh time until a sign was seen. As you are praying, you need to always check around for the sign of that rain. You need to go out and ask, “Have you changed your mind about my job?” “Have you forgiven me of my wrongs?” You need to act along with the prayers. Many keep praying but lack of checking around has made us lost the signs and miracle, that will not be your portion again in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen. Stand up and check around for the awaited miracle. Try again, check again, go to the doctor to reconfirm what you are praying for. The Lord has perfected it. Keep Trying as you Keep Praying. 

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“1. And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;

2. And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant’s house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.

3. And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.

If there was anything Lot learnt from Abraham it was how to “Try Again”. When he saw the angels he invited them to take the night but they rejected the offer. He pressed the more until they accepted to dwell in his house that night. To try again means to persuade to be of help or get what belongs to you. On before now, I have an attitude, I don’t love to ask for help or even what belongs to me, even when am sure that it’s mine. I realized that I needed to try again and ask for what pertains to me. The scripture said, in Matthew 11:12,

“12. And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.”

The violent here is talking about those who persist in the race of the kingdom, who persist in asking God for their portion, who refuse to give up on their desires and right.

Many marriages collapse because the man or the woman couldn’t try again or start again. Many lost their job because they couldn’t persuade their interviewer that they can offer their services well. It’s time to try harder to get what belongs to you. Lot tried harder and the Angels succumbed to him and dwell with him that night. If he gave up he would have been destroyed with Sodom and Gomorrah, but he escaped because He learnt not to quit easily. Beg that spouse again. Put more effort In that work again. Go back to that company and try again. You need to forget the shame and try again. This year don’t let opportunities slip over you, try again, you can win this time around. 

Good Morning and God Bless you.

This year, 2023, isn’t the same as year 2022, meaning, what doesn’t work last year will work for us this year. Where we have been rejected last year we will be sent for this year. Every losses of last year will be restored back this year in Jesus wonderful name, Amen. This week, am here to encourage you to “TRY AGAIN”, Yes, try those things again as we will all see those who Tried it Again and it later worked for them.

Our Father, Abraham, was called a friend of God. God said how can I destroy Sodom and Gomorrah without informing Abraham. He gave Abraham the detail of His mission and Abraham interceded for the city. He spoke the first time about finding fifty persons who are righteous and God assured Him, because of fifty righteous people the city wont be destroy. Then He tried again about forty-five people, God said no. He kept trying until he got to ten righteous persons and God said, for the sake of Ten righteous persons the city wont be destroy. Truly, ten person were not found in Sodom and Gomorrah but Abraham’s persistency rescued Lot from the destruction of that city because, the scripture says in Genesis 19:29,

“And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.”

To make this year different, we need to try again as Abraham tried and rescue His nephew from the destruction in sodom. How many times have you tried? Two or three times? Try again. How many times have you ask? Ask Him Again for His ears are not deaf to hear us. Try persuading again and you will have a better year ahead.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“25. And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.”

Success is attached to serving God. If you will do anything that success will be involved, you will need to serve God. Serving God attracts alot from God. It includes increase in all we do, the blessings God, preservation, sustainability. It ends devourer over our business and ministry. To serve God is an investment with lasting reward. Serving God makes God service you in return. Nothing that’s yours will He not watch over. 

The blessing of the Lord is attached to His service. No service is a waste while offered to God. He said, “and He shall bless your bread and your water, and take sickness away from you.” If you want to be successful this year, add the service of God to your itinerary. Serving God brings preservation over every endeavours of ours. Dedicate some of your time to the things of God and you will enjoy all around success this year.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“19. Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.

20. But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

21. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

22. Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

23. Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

24. Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

The road that leads to success is filled with Divine instructions, Divine guidances and Divine leading. Those who succeeds doesn’t take steps like other, they are guided on what to do. Instructions from God, godly men, spiritual men who has the mind of God at heart. Moses was guided by God and His father-in-law. Jesus’ coming to the world, through Joseph, was as a result of God’s guidance. Joseph was consistently guided through dream prior to the birth of Jesus and the safety of Jesus after His birth. You need to follow someone who knows the way than you do.

Guidance might be through asking the successful questions, walking with those who has achieved what you intend to achieve. It also include asking God for his will concerning those ideas and steps you are to take. Success is achieved when things are done God’s way, His word says, 

“John 15:5, … *_For Without Me Ye Can Do Nothing._*

To be successful this year, you need Divine guidance. Ask Him for His will concerning those endeavours of yours, and you will enjoy success in all you do.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“12. And Joseph said unto him, This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days:

13. Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head, and restore thee unto thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh’s cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler.”

Every life depends on other lives to live. Thousands of souls survival depends on few lives to live. Let’s take an example, if a Jobless man gets employed through you, His family becomes free from poverty, lack and begging. He will affect his siblings and inlaws, will be able to pay his house rent, pay up those he’s been indebted to, by and large, ten to fifteen persons will be happy because you employed the man and got a good job. That is how it looks like, a cup of rice may be the million Naira someone need from you to live.

Joseph, in the prison was able to affect lives with his gift. He put smile on the butler face despite he being in the prison. Do what God laid in your heart to do for others. It mustn’t be a big and flashy thing but just meet a need for others. Words of encouragement in the place of criticism is a blessing. Prayers and checking on others, is also a way of affecting lives. 

What can you do to affect that fellow around you positively? Just try and touch a life daily and you will be surprise the success you will achieve this year.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“23. A man’s pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.”

The easiest way to be successful is to be humble in life. With humility you can have access into the heart of even the most wicked human being on earth. Humility Isn’t stupidity or foolishness but “Let God speaks For Me”. To be humble doesn’t stop you from taking and requesting what belongs to you. Humility makes you teachable, brings honour, brings favour and brings lifting from God. Humility brings safety to what you have and keeps you on a pedestrian of success. Humility makes you keep your achievement to yourself. 

Moses was called the most meekest man on the surface of the earth and this gave Him the privilege to see God face to face. When you are humble God draws you closer to Himself but when you live a proud life, He resist you from coming to Him. Do you want to succeed this year, be humble to learn, be teachable, be correctable and keep your successes to yourself, let God speak and announce you to your world. Dont be controlled by achievement and resources, but put all successes under your control.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“14. For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

15. And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

16. Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.

We’ve discussed secret of “Change Of Mentality”, and “Start Taking Action”. The third is to be Committed and Consistent” in what we do. “Commitment simply means, being dedicated to a cause no matter how difficult it may be.” Commitment makes you focus on result regardless of the present occurrences. Consistency is the ability to keep doing it till result shows up. What you are committed and consistent with is what brings result. You don’t quit because the result is not showing forth. The more committed and consistent you are, the more knowledgeable you become on that field and the more successful you become.

Three businessmen were given cash to invest with (personal paraphrase of Matthew 25:14-16). Two were committed and consistent with their investment and this made them more successful in their ability. They came with double portion of their interest because they were committed and consistent. Nothing grows and ends in success without these two qualities. Be determine this year to be Committed and consistent, be focus on what you are doing and see the outcome after twelve month, you will be amazed at your accomplishment.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Good Morning and God Bless you.
