BE FRUITFUL!!!

biblestudyresources.org


And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Genesis 1:28 KJV


I decree over your life according to the word of God that you are fruitful, you multiply, you replenish the earth and you subdue it. You have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves on earth in Jesus mighty name! Take charge this month of August. Subdue and dominate it in Jesus mighty name! Amen.


I usually speak this word over myself and my children daily. You can also make a daily confession out of this powerful verse by saying to yourself:



I am fruitful
I multiply
I replenish the earth and i subdue it. 
I have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves on earth.

Make it a daily confession remember that the word of God must constantly be on your lips for you to have good success. Joshua 1:8.

Let me know if you have started using this confession and your experiences afterwards. Shalom.



Happy New Month Friends!!!

HOLY ANGER

pray4zion

Early the next morning Jesus was returning to the city. He was hungry. Seeing a lone fig tree alongside the road, he approached it anticipating a breakfast of figs. When he got to the tree, there was nothing but fig leaves. He said, “No more figs from this tree—ever!” The fig tree withered on the spot, a dry stick. The disciples saw it happen. They rubbed their eyes, saying, “Did we really see this? A leafy tree one minute, a dry stick the next?”                   Matthew 21:18-20 MSG

Have you ever experienced any disappointments, hurts, pains, dashed expectations and hope? If your answer is yes, then you are not alone. Our Lord Jesus Christ in His might while here on earth also experienced all these things. How did Jesus deal with His disappointment? Let’s learn from the Master.

It was recorded in the above scripture that Jesus early one morning was hungry. He needed to eat something. Upon siting a leafy Fig tree, Jesus began to have hopes and expectations. He anticipated a breakfast of figs. But when He got to the tree alas! There was a no fruit on it. Only leaves. Immediately Jesus did something spectacular. He got angry. He got angry in the spirit. And with that Holy anger, he declared, “No more figs from this tree ever!”

I now began to wonder. Why was Jesus annoyed? Why did He take it so personal? Couldn’t He have just walked away and look for something else to eat? Why was he angry? The Fig tree is a type of tree that brings out its fruits before its leaves. So when Jesus saw the leafy Fig tree, He was absolutely sure there will be fruits on it. But the reverse was the case. That is why He got annoyed. “This was not normal for Fig trees” He must have taught. This tree has a problem. This tree is fruitless! And in Matthew 3:10 [AMP] the word of God says: “And already the ax is lying at the root of the trees, every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire”. That was why Jesus got angry. The tree was an abnormally. It had to go! And Jesus did not spare it. He spoke to the tree authoritatively and it dried up ON THE SPOT! Can you believe that?!! The disciples present with Jesus at this time were shocked at the speed of which the tree dried up and exclaimed “Did we really see this? A leafy tree one minute, a dry stick the next?! Matt 21: 20 [MSG]

Are you also in the same shoes with Jesus at this point in time? Are your expectations cut short? Are your hopes dashed? Are you hungry for one thing or the other which is not forthcoming? Are you experiencing disappointments in one area of your life or the other? Maybe by now you expected to have been married but you are not even engaged. At your age you expected to have had all your children but you are still believing God for the fruit of the womb. Or maybe you expected to have entered into your rest financially but you are still struggling. Is it a long standing illness? All your expectations and efforts at getting well were all futile and you have now accepted the statusquo saying “it’s my fate. It’s my cross, I will bear it”. No brother! No my sister! Do not accept the statusquo! It’s not yours! Jesus did not accept any bad fate! Realizing the fact that this situation was not normal, He got ANGRY IN THE SPIRIT! Instead of accepting the statusquo, instead of learning to live with it, why not try Jesus’ approach?!! Get angry in the spirit and with that Holy anger begin to make declarations over that unfavourable situation just like Jesus did. Please note that your tongue is a very powerful weapon. It can bring death or life depending on how you use it. Proverbs 18:21 [NKJV] says “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.”
So what are you waiting for? Snap out of that depression and self pity and start SPEAKING LIFE! Talk to that situation like Jesus spoke to the Fig tree. They sure can hear. If the Fig tree heard Jesus, then every difficult situation or mountain can hear. So open your mouth and speak to it. Speak out your desires and it will come to pass. Mark 11:23 [KJV] It is very important to note that this right belongs exclusively to those who have accepted Jesus Christ has their personal Lord and Saviour. Are you born again?
God wants all your hopes and expectations realized. But the devil won’t let go without a fight. Resist the Devil and he will flee from you. The New Living Translation [NLT] better drives hope this point in James 4:7 “So let God work His will in you. Yell a loud No!!! to the Devil and watch him scramper. (emphasis mine) Friends the devil needs to be yelled at so open your mouth and yeeeeell!!!!!
 Shalom.
Prayer
Dear Lord, I stand as your son/daughter washed by the blood of Jesus and boldly declare that every tree of disappointments, shame, pain, embarrassment, poverty, lack, sickness, barrenness, backwardness, joblessness in my life dries up from the root in Jesus mighty name. Amen!
Please send me you testimonies. I believe you will see the mighty hand of God in action in your life. Amen.
Shalom.

THE SHADOW OF THE ALMIGHTY




Hello Friends!

In this time of great insecurity, the only secured place is the Secret Place of the Most High. Only in Him can we find peace, security and divine protection.

The secret place of the most High simply means God's presence. Spend time in His presence at least twice in a day. Morning and night. Let Him speak to you by reading His word (the Bible) and you talk to Him in prayer. Then go into your day with Him and you are sure and certain of His presence and divine protection.

When you spend time in His presence, the Almighty Himself is too much a protection for you. His shadow is more than enough. You remain unmovable, unshakable and untouchable under HIS SHADOW!

Prayer
Thank you Lord for your shadow. I remain unmovable, unshakable and untouchable under it in Jesus mighty name. Amen.

RELAX. HE CARES



Hello friends!

This is where we come to draw strength and encourage one another. Make it a date with me on this blog. You will not regret it!

You will all agree with me that we are in a very stressful period in our world at the moment. Everybody is tensed and faced with one challenge or the other. The economy of the world has never been as unstable as it is now. What about insecurity, terrorism, wars and natural disasters here and there. These instabilities has created fear in many people. But in the midst of it all Jesus is saying Relax. He's got it all under control. Stop fussing over what to eat, drink or wear. Some people have even landed themselves in serious health issues because of unnecessary worries and fears. 

Now tell me, who cares for the wildflowers in the fields, birds in the air, fish in the sea and other living creatures on earth. They don't work or make money but your heavenly Father in His awesomeness made it his responsibility to care for them. So why do you worry? Why do you fear? Don't you think you are of greater value than they are. You are created in His image you know. You look exactly just like Him! So relax and run after God instead of mundane things. Steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative and God-provisions.  In short seek God and everything that has to do with Him and see if all your everyday needs will not be met. All what God is looking for is your total dependence on Him.

 So relax Jesus loves you!

Prayer
Dear Lord, thank You because you are my heavenly father. Thank you for loving and caring for me. So Lord I commit my life unto your hands. I speak against all inclinations to fear and worries in my life in Jesus name. I relax in your love and everlasting arm. Thank You Lord. In Jesus mighty name i pray. Amen.
