SAY AMEN


Text : John 17:9 

*"I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours."* 

John chapter 17 is dedicated to prayer. Jesus prayed for his disciples and this includes you.  He said "...Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;"

It is clear from the above that if you have believed in the Lord Jesus through your confession(word), then you are part of the prayer He made to the Father in John 17. It is important for you to know that *Jesus, our  High Priest had prayed for you, and He's still praying for you right now.* 

Knowing fully well that none of Jesus' requests will go unanswered, you therefore need to stand in a position of Amen (Yes) to all the prayers He's made and still making for you. To say Amen is to simply believe that Jesus' prayers for you has already been answered. Saying Amen is also for you to start walking in the realities of these prayers.

We shall be looking into some of these prayers in order for you to start taking delivery of your blessings.

The first prayer point Jesus prayed for us is unity. Our Lord Jesus prayed thus: *"...Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are. (John 17:11)"* .

 *The unity of the body is very paramount in the heart of Jesus Christ.* Disunity is a major arsenal of the devil against marriages, homes, families and the church of God in general. The devil knows  that unity among the children of God will terminate his reign on earth quickly, hence,he is doing all he could to keep us disunited and divided. 

Even between husband and wife, disunity is a major weapon the enemy employs. 

It is better for a couple to stay in unity than praying against the devil in disunity. Staying together and in unity must always precede every other thing in marriage or in the church.

As people of God, we must not allow denomination to divide the body of Christ. The body has remained weak, because we've not  come to terms with the prayer of unity that Jesus Christ offered to the Father on our behalf. 

Today, God wants you to say Amen to the prayer of unity concerning your marriage by staying in unity with your spouse. 

He wants you to say Amen to the prayer by staying united in your family.

He wants you to say Amen by staying in unity with your brethren.

 Our unity in the body of Christ is the Amen to Jesus' Prayer.

John 17: 5 -24.

1.) Father God, I receive the grace to walk in unity with my fellow believers in Jesus name

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...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

HIS VOICE- 2

Text : John 10:3. To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. We established yesterday that one thing you can't joke with as a true follower of Christ is *His Voice.* You must recognise and hearken to (obey) His voice. It is in doing this that your safety is assured.  Today, we want to see another responsibility of the Shepherd over His sheep.  To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, *and leads them out.* John 10:3.  He called you, that He might lead you. It is not enough for you to hear or recognise His Voice, you must allow Him to lead you as well.  Romans 8:14 says *For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.*   The Spirit leading you determines the family you belong to. Basically,  there are only two families in this world - the family of God, and the family of satan. In other words, we can say the Kingdom...
