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 ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
