Psalm 68:1 (NKJV) Let God arise… God is not into mediocrity. He has put His own faith in us so that when He speaks, we can respond with the same faith He uses. However, many Christians mistakenly believe that when God speaks, He’s talking to them and filter His Word through their own perceived human limitations. In reality, He’s addressing the God in them. When He calls you to win nations, He’s no...

Acts 26:17 (MEV) I will deliver you from your people… The Bible says a person’s enemies can come from their own household. So don’t be surprised when a Judas rises from among your relatives. The psalmist lamented, “If my enemy was insulting me, I could handle it. If someone who hated me was attacking me, I could avoid them. But it was you—my equal, my companion, someone I trusted” (Psalm 55:12-13)...

1 Chronicles 4:9 (NKJV)  …His mother called his name Jabez, saying, “Because I bore  him  in pain.”   Over an average lifespan of eighty years, you could hear your name called around 292,000 times. Someone said, “A person’s name is to that person the sweetest and most important sound in any language.” But what if your name, instead of bringing joy, acts like a curse because of its meaning?  Names...

Jeremiah 51:20 (NKJV) You are My battle-ax and weapons of war…   Real Christianity, at its weakest level, looks like witchcraft. That may shock you, but it is true. The Christianity many have believed is a poor imitation of the real thing. The moment you begin to pray, you congeal fire. This is not a poetic metaphor or abstract idea; it’s a spiritual reality. Your prayers generate supernatural pow...

Ephesians 5:18 (HCSB) Don’t get drunk with wine, which leads to reckless actions, but be filled by the Spirit.   People often wonder, Can I drink alcohol? What they are really after is permission. Yes, you can drink alcohol. God won’t dispatch an angel from Heaven to wire your mouth shut or close down every beer hall in your neighbourhood. The better question is, Should I drink alcohol? Let me ans...

Zechariah 4:7 (NKJV) Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain!   Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world, standing at a staggering 8,848 meters (29,029 feet). Despite its perilous conditions, thousands of people attempt to climb it each year—all for the thrill of conquering something so immense. In fact, many of the roads we travel today were carved out...

John 8:32 (NKJV) And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.   Freedom isn’t automatic; it comes from  knowing  the truth. During the Emancipation Proclamation, enslaved people were declared free. Yet many remained in bondage because they hadn’t heard or didn’t believe the news. Similarly, we can be spiritually free, but unless we know and act on this truth, we will still live...

Isaiah 59:19 (NKJV) When the enemy comes in, like a flood, The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.   In Zechariah 2:8, God calls His people “the apple of His eye,” a phrase that refers to the pupil, one of the most sensitive parts of the body. The eye has a reflex that instantly protects it from any harm—blinking or watering to block and flush out anything that tries to touch i...

Matthew 5:13 (NKJV) You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned?....   Salt never ceases to be salt. However, it can lose its flavour and effectiveness when contaminated, dissolved, or exposed to the elements. Similarly, Christians can lose their spiritual impact if they become influenced by the world’s impurities or allow their faith to dissolve throu...

2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV) Therefore, if anyone  is  in Christ,  he is  a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.   Every thought is encoded in your DNA. I’ve spoken about this at length in my book,  Genetics of Words . This encoding includes thoughts from your ancestors—good and bad—which are also passed on to you and stored in your DNA, but it takes your wor...

2 Kings 4:2 (NKJV) So Elisha said to her, “What shall I do for you?   Have you ever stopped to consider that God has no problems whatsoever? He has no enemies because no entity can challenge Him. He’s too big to have enemies, and problems run away from His Presence.  Now, hear this. The Bible tells us that we are in Christ, which means we are in the One who has no problems. Yet, one of the biggest...

Psalm 5:3 ( MSG ) Every morning you’ll hear me at it again.    Have you ever faced the kind of day when problems come at you from every angle? Every problem, every challenge, and every obstacle you face has a spiritual answer, and that answer is fire! Jesus Himself understood this. Even though He spoke the day into existence, He knew that you cannot enter into a day where you have not invested fir...

Jude 1:24 (KJV) Now unto Him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy.   Some Christians are easily swayed by sayings that appeal to their humanity rather than their divinity. Many focus on scriptures, especially from the Old Testament, without realizing that, as Christians, our code of conduct is governed by New Testam...

Exodus 14:29 (KJV) But the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.   When the Israelites walked away from the Egyptian yoke of bondage, the Lord ensured they crossed the Red Sea on dry ground. He didn't want them to enter Canaan with the mud of Egypt. They were leaving behind slavery, poverty,...

Acts 9:10 (KJV) And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.   When a head of state travels to a location, that area becomes a high-security zone. Police and all security personnel will be everywhere. Entering such an environment, you immediately sense that someone influential is nearby. This is ph...

Romans 8:37 (KJV) Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.   Battles are in phases: preparation, fighting, and post-battle or victory stage. When the Bible says we are more than conquerors, it introduces a whole new dimension. Conquerors are still fighting and battling with the enemy, but more than conquerors have already won and are seated in victory. They w...

1 Samuel 17:45 (KJV) Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.   When you see a tiny policewoman at a roadblock, she can easily stop you and you will definitely obey. The reason you obey is not because she is an officer but becau...

1 Corinthians 13:12 (KJV) For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.   Your identity is a force that opens doors for you when everything else is silent. When the president of your country is driving along the road, what causes all to freeze is knowing the identity of the one coming. The awareness that someone su...

Luke 5:37 (KJV) And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.   God is dynamic and always has something new to surprise you and your family. Many are stuck in old ways and operations, not knowing that God said He will do a new thing among you. The Bible says you can't put new wine in old wineskins; otherwis...

John 14:26 (KJV) But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.   Great companies or nations are the result of great strategies. Proper strategies are the element that separates the great from the ordinary. Right now, what you need to come out of your situati...

Acts 19:15 (KJV) And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?   The physical world is full of so-called "celebrities," those who are popular for different reasons. There are celebrities in the physical world, but it’s possible to be a celebrity on Earth and not be known in the spiritual realm. Look at our scripture for today—the sons of Sceva migh...

Revelation 22:13 (KJV) I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.   A basic understanding of theology will make you understand that the original languages of the Bible, read from right to left not left to right. This entails that the phrase “Alpha and omega” is actually “omega and alpha.“ The God we worship is the One who starts with the end before the beginning. The...

Psalm 138:2 (KJV) I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.   When I mention power, you might think of angels and supernatural forces beyond the physical realm. But there's something more powerful than the name of God Himself—His Word. As simple as it seems, God operates according to...

Proverbs 17:22 (KJV) A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.   Millions are dying every day due to various diseases. As much as different organizations are putting resources into medical research, there is no physical cure for certain diseases. Did you know that every time you smile and are joyous, you are running away from hospitals? Most diseases are cause...

Matthew 14:30 (KJV) But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.   The force to achieve anything is hidden in focus. When your interest is entirely on your goal, it guides your conduct, choices, and moves. Whether in ministry or anything else, focus is key. When Jesus called Peter out of the boat, the Bible confirms he started to walk...
