BE UPLIFTED
Bless you brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. The message I have for you today is “be uplifted from the spirit of weakness and distress.” There are many who are downcast in heart and mind, there are many who at the edge of giving up life and contemplating suicide. There are many whom Satan has decided to frustrate their lives and their peace, so many people are in one distress.
We all face struggles of various kinds; some are self-afflicted, and others are not. Discouragement is a thief. It steals your vitality, your zeal, your joy, your peace, and your contentment. If discouragement dwells long with you, its friends will soon join. Their names are fatigue, hopelessness, despair, self-pity, depression, doubt, and bitterness.
We need to take comfort in what Christ has done on the cross and how Jesus’ sacrifice guarantees that God loves us and is watching out for us. Keeping your eyes on Jesus is the best way to be encouraged and to overcome distress and difficulties of life. In Him, you can have comfort and peace, and encouragement. You need to find Him and His words, and by faith rest in Him.
Encouragement is something that belongs to you as a Christian. You do not have to live in a world of hurt and doubt. You don’t have to live alone. You don’t have to weep in solitude. You have the body of Christ to lift you up. You have the Word of God to teach you. You have the Holy Spirit indwelling in you who warms your soul. But you need to trust. You need to remember the Lord’s blessing. You need to depend on Him. You need to keep your eyes on Jesus and Him alone.
May the God who gives comfort and encouragement comfort your heart and mind and lift you up from distress and sorrow. May the peace of God be with you always.
Yours faithfully in Christ Jesus.

WITH GOD WE CAN OVERCOME EVERYTHING.
Bless you dear brothers and sisters, its a great privileged and honour to enlighten you with the word of knowledge from God’s word. Bible said with God we can overcome every situation that confront us. But before we can overcome our situations, we must first come before the presence of God. We must have divine access into the presence of the living God in the spiritual realm. For God is Spirit and those who serve him must serve him in Spirit and in truth.
We must connect to God in mind and in Spirit. Going to church is good, but its not enough, reading our bible is good, very good but still not enough. For us to have access to God is for us to open our heart and mind to God’s word first and allow his word to take hold of our ways of live and change us to God’s ways of life. We cannot have access to God when we are not willing to allow his word to transform our minds and change our ways. We will only find ourselves struggling with our Christian live but no progress in the spirit realm.
When we submit our heart and mind to God ‘s word, He (God) send his Holy Spirit to our heart to open access to us to get connect to him in Spirit realm, because of our reverent submission to his word. But when we are arrogant and stubborn to his word and unwilling to accept his guidance in our heart and live by it, then we cannot receive access to his presence. “For God resist the proud but gives grace to the humble to come near him”.
By receiving access to god’s presence in the heavenly realm, then we receive power and authority to bound and uproot any situation that confront us both physically and spiritually. Then we can overcome everything.
May the good Lord grant us the grace to be humble before his word. And accept it into our heart till his word change us completely.
Yours in Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour.

A PROMISE KEEPING GOD
Bless you brethren in Christ Jesus. We thank God for a new year, I pray that very good thing your heart desire this year shall be meant by the Lord.
Jesus said we should seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and every other thing we desire and needed shall added unto us. Our God is a God who is great in power and mighty to save and deliver even beyond our comprehension. There is nothing He cannot do. When He said He will bless you and strengthen you, surely, he would do exactly as he said. His word never fails, thou it may tarry and linger, but it will surely come. (Habakkuk 2:3)
He is a promise keeping God. Every word that has come out of his mouth would never return to him without fulfil the purpose which been sent. You might ask, why God never answer my prayers and grant my request? My answer for you is to seek his will and purpose for your life. Take time to think about how God moves in your life both in good and bad times. Reflect on his ways in your life. Don’t compare yourself to another person. Just reflect your mind on your life and your household.
Whatever that happens to us in this life either good or bad, that is how God want it to turn out. He has is own plans for all of us especially for those who seek him diligently. And no one can challenge his plans in our lives. We should only ask God to strengthen our heart so that we may be able to accept his will for us especially the unpleasant ones. If you don’t give up on God and never turn your heart and mind against him, I promise you today as heaven and earth bears witness, that God would bring joy to your heart once more. “Sorrow may last for the night but joy cometh in the morning”.
Delight yourself in the Lord always and He would grant you the desires of your heart. Seek the Lord with all your heart and soul and you shall be found by him. Devote your time to the Lord, and He will reward you abundantly even more than you ask for. Peace and Love to you wherever you are.
Yours in Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour.
