The Dawn Of A New Day - Pastor Ekpenyong

Josh.1:2KJV “Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.”

There are incidences and events in people’s lives that are milestones. That even after many years, they are yet to recover from the effect of such turning points especially occurrences that negatively mark their emotions. For some, it may be the death of a loved one, others the loss of a job, a divorce and the list goes on.

Whatever the case may be for you, from our opening text we see God acknowledging that Moses His servant was dead. Teaching us to accept as a fact whatever has happened and then not to stay there but move on for His plans aren’t over concerning you.

It’s actually a discipline to let by-gone be by-gone and move on unto bigger and better things that God has in store for us. For at every turn, His master plan is yet unfolding.

Therefore, arise from the depression and frustrations in which circumstances have kept you — rise to a new life! Shine (be radiant with the glory of the Lord), for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you! 

Glory!

You Are Unimpeachable - Pastor Ekpenyong

Rom.8:33 Weymouth “Who shall impeach those whom God has chosen? God declares them free from guilt.”

 

This would mean so much to our politicians; but to the believer it means even more. It is so because our unimpeachable status comes from the Judge of all men, the One before whom we all have to do.

 

You are God’s elected choice; picked out for His glory.

It is worthy of note that no one can accuse you before God, even the devil cannot. The right the devil as the accuser of the brethren had to stand before the presence of God the Father has been revoked by the blood of Jesus that cleansed the heavens. This right was given him by Adam; who committed high treason by handing over the affairs of the earth at the fall. Halleluyah!

 

Do you know that the devil only accuses you to you? Do not buy into his lies nor entertain his inquests. Stop gratifying him with attention for there’s no use engaging in any conversation with him.

 

You have been justified i.e. declared guiltless.

You are free to become everything God has designed you for and free to do to the maximum everything He has gifted you for.

 

He did this through Christ's death in the body so that He might bring you into God's presence as people who are holy, with no wrong, and with nothing of which God can judge you guilty.

Glory!

Corresponding Actions of Faith - Pastor Modupe

1John 5:15wuest “And if we know with an absolute knowledge that He hears us, whatever we are asking for ourselves, we know with an absolute knowledge that we have the things which we have asked from Him.”

As we continue in the Word, we become more acquainted with the Father’s will and know that when we pray according to His Word which is His will, He hears us.

The missing link for most believers is at the point of walking and talking in consonance with their prayers; this is where they pray one thing and then talk and act completely contrary to everything they have prayed.

It is mandatory that you cooperate with your prayers by taking corresponding faith-steps as one who is assured that "we have the things we have asked from Him".

These corresponding steps are prompted by the Holy Spirit and as you take these steps, the manifestation will be consequent. 

It is necessary to note that no two corresponding faith-steps will be alike and this is so that our faith will not be in the wisdom of men but the power of God. 

Glory!

Prayer Collector - Pastor Ekpenyong

Rev 8:3CJB “Another angel came and stood at the altar with a gold incense-bowl, and he was given a large quantity of incense to add to the prayers of all God’s people.”

Have you ever wondered what happens to all the intercessions of the saints? Prayers are constantly being made all over and praise God there will never be a day without prayers for it is part of the priestly ministry of the believer.

Prayer remains often long unanswered. The reasons for the long delay are often far beyond our reach; but in the end they will be found infinitely wise and gracious.

From our opening text, we see that prayer is not lost. It lies on “the gold altar in front of the throne.” For we lay each petition there, as we pray in Jesus name.

Prayer will be answered but in ways, we little thought of.

Though delayed, it will only add to the fullness of the answer, and increase our joy when it comes. And it will come for He is faithful that promised. He cannot deny Himself. Glory!

Enabled To Excel - Pastor Ekpenyong

2Cor.9:8amp “And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].”

Every Christian has been divinely enabled to excel in everything. You’re qualified for any task; that’s what it means to have “all sufficiency in all things”; it means you have all the competencies and special skills required for excellence in every good work.

God has given you a life that makes you so competent that you don’t require any help!

There’s another word translated sufficiency and it means ability; which means that the ability of God has been made available to you. You have been specially enabled to live supernaturally to the glory of God.

Refuse to function with your human ability; rather, function with divine might. You can do all things through Christ! Make this your confession every day.

Never say, “I can’t.” Change your vocabulary. Even now, begin to say, “I can walk,” “I can do the job.” “I can perfect it.” “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Glory!

Force Them Into Line - Pastor Ekpenyong

Hebrews 6:18MSG “God can't break his word. And because his word cannot change, the promise is likewise unchangeable. We who have run for our very lives to God have every reason to grab the promised hope with both hands and never let go.”

In every believer’s life is the contention between the Truth and facts. The Truth in the face of facts could be termed a lie to the unbeliever or carnal Christian but because God’s word is the Truth, you can turn every fact into a lie before the truth.

What are the facts of your life? The facts of life are your current realities which may not all be in line with the truth of God’s word.

An example could be a pile of unpaid bills or unmet needs; another could be a health challenge, unpleasant marital situations etc. All these seem to make the Truth a lie in your life.

However, you have to assert yourself in the truth despite, inspite and regardless of the contrary situations.

Keep speaking the Truth, which is God’s word over those negative and contrary circumstances until they fall in line and the Truth becomes your reality. Glory!

Irrevocably Blessed - Pastor Ekpenyong

Gen. 27:33TLB "Then who is it who was just here with venison, and I have already eaten it and blessed him with irrevocable blessing?"

You are irrevocably BLESSED. Halleluyah!

Irrevocable means unable to be retracted or reversed. It is final. The BLESSING in question was the BLESSING of Abraham, which Father Abraham transferred to Isaac.

The BLESSING has come upon us in Christ and it is a BLESSING that cannot be taken back. Halleluyah!

The BLESSING is an invocation for supernatural aid; an empowerment to prosper in whatever you do.

As we go into a new year, you can be rest assured that it will be an awesome year because upon you is a divine invocation that empowers you to succeed.

Angels will assist you; all things will work for your good. The marks of progress are upon you causing men to favour your cause and help you.

Your steps are ordered in God’s paths causing you to succeed in your business. You will be healthy and fruitful in your spirit, soul and body.

Talk the BLESSING proclaiming its impact in your life because you are set for a most glorious year. Glory!
