TAKE YOUR RIGHTFUL POSITION

By -




For the LORD your God will bless you, as he promised you, and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow; and you shall rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over you. Deuteronomy 15:6
In the world there are two categories of people, and they are the lenders and the borrowers and each time you read about any of these, you’ll discover the bible always sees God’s children as the lenders. You’ll read when you lend to the poor (vs.6), you shall lend to many nations (Deut. 15:6), lend to your enemies (Luke 6:34) etc. God only instructs His own, therefore that God is telling His own on how to lend means borrowing is not consistent with being a child of God, lending is.
The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is the slave of the lender. Proverbs 22:7
People borrow to supplement what they have with the hope of paying back but I tell you, borrowing takes away the freedom the Lord wants for you. God do not want us to be slaves again, He sent His son to set us free from every form of slavery and we cannot enjoy freedom until we’ve taken our rightful place financially.
Don’t place your hands where it can’t reach because it leads to borrowing. Don’t desire whatsoever the Lord has not given to you seeing that when you do, you subject yourself into bondage.
For example, if you are a low income earner and desire every latest in town, you’ll sure borrow and remain in bondage or you want your children to attend the costliest school so that you’ll boast with it, you’ll forever be a slave.
We are rich, and rich men do not borrow, rather they lend. If you’ve borrowed anything from any man, make it your number one priority to pay back even if it means staying hungry to do so.
Live within your means while trusting God to improve your means. Godliness with contentment is a great gain.
To take your rightful place, stop borrowing and start paying back all that you’ve borrowed and start lending no matter how small; lend half today, tomorrow lend one, next tomorrow lend two and before you know it, you’ll begin to lend to nations.
From today I declare that you are a Lender and not a Borrower in Jesus name.

EVIL

By -
WHEN GOD ALLOWS EVIL ON THE RIGHTEOUS When Christ the righteous was allowed to be crucified in the midst of the guilty, He resurrected in Glory and the enemy was defeated and put to shame. God doesn’t allow evil come on the righteous except He has planned to use the devices of the evil against the righteous to put the evil planner to shame. When the wicked is prospering in his evil against the righteous, it’s because God wants to by the evil of the evil doer puts him to shame. If you have questions over the prosperity of wickedness over your life though you believe in God, think on why God allowed the devil succeeded in killing Christ and what happened afterwards, Christ resurrected in greater glory and the devil was forever defeated before Christ. As it was for Christ so it would be for you, that enemy that is prospering over your life now though you believe in God, will be brought low via his wickedness and you’ll resurrect to greater glory and restoration Pr 11:5 ¶ The

THE STRUGGLE FOR WHOM TO BELIEVE

By -
After a program back in Nigeria early last year, a woman met me by the car and wants me pray for her conception, since she had a first son, having another has been difficult. As I was about to pray for her, I told her she is now pregnant by the word of God (Ex 23:26). After few days, she called to say, she went for medical test and the report isn’t so, and I replied, God is far above medical science, she said ‘amen’. She went for test again after few more days and the result was negative and she called and told me its negative, I laughed and said, Doc’s of these days are so blind, they see things late. She was surprised at my reply. She went for the third test after few more days, and result was still negative but this time, she told herself, I am pregnant because God has said so and by that she rejected the doctor’s report of negativity and thus the fourth test announced itself; an experienced mother asked her, are you pregnant? Instead of saying no according to the doc,

ORDAINED TO BE FRUITFUL

By -
Someone said because of the suffering he was passing through that God has ordained it therefore he is going to accept the financial barrenness as part of God’s plan for him. (I will therefore present my discussion with him like a drama) Me: (I looked at him and asked him) how do you know this barrenness is God’s plan for you? He:   If it’s not God’s plan, why hasn’t God done anything about my situation? Me: How does God change or create a situation isn’t it by His word as in creation? He: Yes Me: Has He spoken that you’ll be barren in life through His word to you? He: Not actually, but that’s what am experiencing, that’s how I feel right now Me: If your experience and feeling isn’t in accordance to God’s word, then your feeling and experience is devilish Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. John 15:8 God is so happy when you are fruitful in life; when you give birth to kids, it excites God, when you get results in
