CAPACITY

Text :  Genesis 41:40.

So you are to be appointed in charge over my palace, and all of my people are to do whatever you command them to do. Only the throne will have greater authority than you.”

I'm sure you are familiar with the story of Joseph, the dreamer. He was so called because he wouldn't be silent about the spectacular dreams God was showing him about himself. 

You don't have to be silent about the vision God has called you to do. Surely, not everyone will agree with you from the beginning. But note that you don't need everyone's approval before you obey God.

The truth is your  critics today will celebrate your success tommorrow if you used their criticism as a stepping stone and not as stumbling block.

Habakkuk 2:2 says ```And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.``` 

So Joseph announced his dreams and it fetched him plenty enemies. 

You may be going through challenging moments right now simply because the enemy has seen the glorious assignment ahead of you and he wants you to chicken out before your manifestation.

It's important to know that your real enemy is the devil, he only employs willing humans (agents) to carry out His intentions. Look past the agents and deal with the real boss(the devil).

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, and seeking whom he may devour: 1 Peter  5:8.

Joseph was betrayed, sold into slavery,  lied against, and sent to prison unjustly. 

While going through these daunting challenges,  instead of spending his time and energy to build up resentments and bitterness against his offenders,  Joseph was busy building capacity. 

Don't waste your life on side attractions,  focus on the assignment He has given you because your day of manifestation is fast approaching. 

BIBLE READING: Gen. 51:1-57.

PRAYER FOCUS

1. I receive the grace and wisdom to build capacity in my time of preparation so I will not be ashamed in my time of manifestation.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

TIME IN ETERNITY

Text : Psalms 90:12  So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom._  Our God dwells in eternity past, present and future. In between these phases of eternity, He created man to dwell in Time. When man sinned, he fell short of God's plan, and death came in.(Rom 3:23). Death therefore short circuit man's life in eternity. This is the reason Jesus.came.  He had to come into TIME in order to remove the PAUSE  death HAD on man.  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16.  Every man born into this world automatically becomes an eternal being. The question therefore is, which side of eternity would such a man dwell? Everlasting life or Everlasting condemnation? Time is an opportunity given to man to trade for eternal life. You have limited time to exchange for eternal life in eternity.  Time offers you the opportunity to ga...
