“20. And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

21. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

22. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

23. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

At the fifth day, God created living creatures in the water and in the air. Fishes and Wales in the waters, in their kinds and different species. Fowl of the air in their kind and also in different species. Afterward, God blessed them to be fruitful and multiply, and to fill the waters and the air, none of it did God made to disturb the peace of men. They are to be food for us, we are not to lack them at any time and for any purpose. They are not created to endanger our lives, nor to be used against us spiritually. Is there any area of life that the devil has been tormenting you and I with any of these creature of the fifth day? Today marks the end in Jesus Mighty Name, we shall no more lack them for food and good use in Jesus name, Amen.

Let’s pray to God by saying,

Father, in the name of Jesus, all that you created were for my good even in their multiplications. But Oh Lord, in every areas of life that the evil one has been using the creature of waters and air against my life, Father, arise and subdue them in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen. 

I will no more, henceforth, lack them for good and for food in my life, they shall bring me peace and joy in abundant this year in Jesus Precious 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.

“14. And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

15. And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

16. And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

17. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

18. And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

19. And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.”

At the forth day, God created The Sun, The Moon and The Star to give light to the earth from the firmament. These three light were created to establish seasons on earth. They were to organize and establish continuity on earth. They were made for our advantage, that was why David said in Psalms 121:6

 “6. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.”

They are not to work against us but work for us. They are to lighten our path both day and night. I pray this morning, the Sun, Moon and Star will work in our favour, they shall be at our advantage this year, by day and by night, they shall preserve our lives in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

Pray and say to God;

Father, you created the Sun, The Moon and The Star for my advantage, this year they shall work in my favour, they shall not work against me, against my family and my life, they shall rather bring me joy everlasting this year in Jesus name, Amen.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

9. And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

10. And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

11. And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

12. And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

13. And the evening and the morning were the third day.

At the third Day of Creation, God called forth Dry land to yield grasses, seed tree and fruit tree. It was with ease that the dry land made them available. In order words, the land answers to every Instructions of God, the earth gave God all He demanded of it, I decree, this year, the earth will produce fruit for you with ease in Jesus name, Amen. Everything was produced without stress by the earth, the earth will favour you this year in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

I’ll like us to pray in this direction,

1. Lord, this year, the earth will release all that pertains to me. It will be productive for me, it will favour me before the year ends in Jesus name Amen.

2. The Earth will favour me to build houses this year, it will not work against me, and my blood will not be shed on it in Jesus name, I will tread upon this earth to make it this year in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“6. And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.

7. And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.

8. And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

At the second day of creation, God separated the waters from water with the use of firmament, firmament is an empty Space, in order words, He separated the waters with space. Waters was above the firmament and waters was beneath the firmament. Just like when the Lord separated the Red Sea with firmament, space for the children of Israelite, I see God making space for you this year within that waters of problems in Jesus Mighty Name. 

He said, I will make a way In the wilderness, just as he made a space between the waters. It doesn’t matter what the situation may be like, this year, God will make space for you to go through in Jesus Mighty Name.

Pray in this direction;

1. Lord, make space for me to go through my difficulties, let there be path in my hardest way this year.

2. Give me Space to flourish, enlarge my coast all around in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“1. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

2. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

3. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

4. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

5. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

This is the history of the creation which we all believed and hold on to. How God made something out of nothing. When God started establishing the Heaven and Earth, it looks opposite His intentions, but then He called out the Light. Now, mind you, this wasn’t the Sun nor the Moon or the Star, but “ILLUMINATION”, Brightness, Visibility. It’s not everytime the sun is up there in the sky as early as 7am but there is Light. Illumination is not hot, and it create an avenue to see very clearly without a shade of darkness.

I want us to pray in this direction, 

Father, Illumination was so important to you while creating the universe, this year I need illumination around my life, Illuminate my life, my work, my family and purpose this year in Jesus Mighty Name. Let hidden path be made visible to me this year by the power of creation, In Jesus Mighty Name I Pray, Amen.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“1. And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

2. Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:

3. And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.

4. And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

5. Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.”

Beloved, that things doesn’t work the way you planned it, is not a reason to quit praying and trying this year. That your hope were dashed early in the year shouldn’t make you loose hope of change this year. Persistency is the Key. Keep trying and praying is the secret, because, “Nothing good comes easy”, so, to enjoy the best this year we need to be persistent with our prayers and actions.

Jesus speaking in parable about a Judge who neither fear God nor man. He believes in what he’s ready to do and otherwise. He has no regard for anyone, so he made himself a god. But because of the persistence of the widow, he had to listen to her plie and avenge her of her adversary. That is the power of persistent. I want to encourage us all, this year is not a year to give up but a year to give it all. A year to put in your best as you pray for fulfilment. Your persistent will bail you out this year. You will not labour in vain, neither will you pray in vain, in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“17. And he said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it. Then Elisha said, Shoot. And he shot. And he said, The arrow of the LORD’S deliverance, and the arrow of deliverance from Syria: for thou shalt smite the Syrians in Aphek, till thou have consumed them. 

18. And he said, Take the arrows. And he took them. And he said unto the king of Israel, Smite upon the ground. And he smote thrice, and stayed.

19. And the man of God was wroth with him, and said, Thou shouldest have smitten five or six times; then hadst thou smitten Syria till thou hadst consumed it: whereas now thou shalt smite Syria but thrice.”

Prophet Elisha was visited by King of Israel, King Joash, during the last days of the Prophet. He was on a sick bed which led to his death. Prophet Elisha gave the King an instruction to shoot an arrow which was prophetic, and the King did. He also instructed him to smite the ground with the arrow and the King smote it but three times, and the prophet was angry at king. “Thou shouldest have smitten five or six times, then hadst thou smitten Syria till thou hadst consumed it”. And the prophet died. The king couldn’t went further to smite the ground which imply limited victories over Syria.

There are times in our lives that we quit so early because of little achievement. We felt, “This is okay for me”. “I’ve tried enough than others so let me rest a little”. That is not the level God expected of you. Go further. Extend your tent and add more strength to turn the situation around. When you felt your strength is drained, it’s a trick of the enemy to limit your victory. It’s not time to celebrate yet, move further. The scripture says in, Isaiah 54:2-3.

“2. Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;

3. For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.”

Go further, don’t prepare a resting tent yet, you have more grounds to cover. Smite the ground more.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“13. And he sent again a captain of the third fifty with his fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and besought him, and said unto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life, and the life of these fifty thy servants, be precious in thy sight.

“15. And the angel of the LORD said unto Elijah, Go down with him: be not afraid of him. And he arose, and went down with him unto the king.”

Our Bible Passage today is a familiar chapter of the Bible which we’ve digested to the fullest. But I want us to see it from another angle today. King Ahaziah was wrath with Prophet Elijah because he kept revealing the intentions of the king before they were pronounced, so The Bible said in 2 Kings 1:9 

“9. Then the king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him: and, behold, he sat on the top of an hill. And he spake unto him, Thou man of God, the king hath said, Come down.”

This is how our enemies are targeting us. They rise against us because we have become thorn in their flesh. We are familiar with what happened to the two sets of captains and their fifties. But the king never relented, as our enemies are not relenting against us. The king had a mind set of, “Let Me Try Again” and the Lord granted his desire, although it didn’t work for him at the end. The third Captain came and humbled himself and the Angel told Elijah, “Go down with Him” which means, the King’s intention was granted. If you give up the devil will defeat you. In order not to be defeated you need to keep calling fire to consume everything that’s trying to bring you down. The enemy also apply this principle of “Try Again” but I pray today, he will keep failing concerning us in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen. Don’t give in to oppositions, keep trying again and again to defeat his determination, and God will rise to your defence in Jesus name. Keep resisting the devil and his tricks, very soon, we will overcome in Jesus name, Amen.

Good Morning and God Bless you.

“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.

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.
