TREM Devotional – There Is Power In The Name Of Jesus

Dr. Mike Okonkwo TREM

TREM Devotional 11 November 2021 Daily Devotional By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – There Is Power In The Name Of Jesus

TOPIC: There Is Power In The Name Of Jesus

“Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name.” Philippians 2:9 KJV

As children of God, I believe that we have no doubt about the power that is in the name of Jesus. According to the Bible, God gave Jesus a name that is above all names. He also earned it when He spoilt principalities and powers. Hence, God gave him a name and said, “I will raise you above principalities and powers.” And when Jesus was ascending into heaven, He gave that name to the church and said, “in my name you shall cast out devils.” But then, how many believers are mentioning that name?

Do you know that one of the strategies of the devil is to muzzle the mouth of the believer so that we don’t talk about Jesus? Do you know that the devil doesn’t mind us having church, as long as we do not preach Jesus? He would rather we call God but not preach about Jesus because Jesus is the one who spoilt principalities and powers. It was Jesus who shed His blood in order to redeem us so we can look up and call God ‘Father.’ It was Jesus who took our sins upon Himself so that we can become the righteousness of God. Now we have access to God and because of this, the devil hates Him with a passion.

When you mention the name of Jesus, the devil does not see you but the one who destroyed him in his own very domain. That is why there is so much power when you mention the name of Jesus. So what are you doing with this name? When last did you just lie on your bed and close your eyes and begin to call His name? A song writer said: “Jesus… how I love calling your name… Jesus… everyday your name is the same.” When last did you shut your eyes from every pressure from the devil and begin to call His name and just love Him? In the name of Jesus, I declare you blessed.

Seeds Of Destiny Devotional

Dunamis’ Seeds Of Destiny 11 November 2021 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche — Understanding Faith

TOPIC: Understanding Faith

Without faith, there is no future for the just.

SCRIPTURE: Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11: 1.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Without faith, there is no future for the just.

Faith is one subject that is often misunderstood by many Christians. Some people believe that faith is a doctrine of a particular denomination or a group of Christians and so, they don’t have anything to do with it. Such people can say things like, “We are the holiness people. We are not the faith and prosperity people. We are the prayer people. Ours is not the line of faith and prosperity”. The truth is, there is nothing like that.

Habakkuk 2:4 says,

…but the just shall live by his faith.

So, provided you are not a sinner or a Godless person – whether you are a holiness person or a prayer person; whatever your affiliation, so long as you are just and want to live a quality life, it must be by the frequency of faith.

Romans 1:17 says,

For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

This means, without faith, there is no future for the just.

Now, what is faith? I will give you one definition of faith today:

Faith is in place when the revelation of the word of God in the heart of a person produces a conviction that is strong enough to result in corresponding actions.

When faith is in place, the revelation of the Word of God in the heart of a person produces a conviction that is strong enough to result in corresponding actions.

Remember this: Without faith, there is no future for the just.

ASSIGNMENTS:

  1. Go through today’s message again.
  2. Make up your mind to understand faith and live by faith.

PRAYER: Thank You Lord for showing me what faith is all about. I ask for the revelation of Your Word that will fuel my faith in You, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: UNDERSTANDING FAITH (PART 1)

QUOTE: You must know that you need faith to fight. Culled from “15 KINGDOM STRATEGIES FOR SURVIVAL” by Dr Paul Enenche.

DAILY READING: Acts 19-21

REFLECTION: Faith is the product of the revelation of God. The more of God we know, the more in Him we trust. Endeavour to know God.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD: I pray that God will draw you to the place of greater intimacy with Him in this season in Jesus’ Name.

Today’s devotional was written by Pastor Paul Enenche of the Dunamis International Gospel Centre (DIGC), headquartered at Abuja, Nigeria, with Pastor Paul and Becky Enenche, as the Senior Pastors.

DCLM Daily Manna – Justice Of God

DCLM Daily Manna 11 November 2021 Devotional By Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — Justice Of God

TOPIC: Justice Of God

TEXT: Psalm 76:1-12

1 In Judah is God known: his name is great in Israel.

2 In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.

3 There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah.

4 Thou art more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey.

5 The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.

6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.

7 Thou, even thou, art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?

8 Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,

9 When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. Selah.

10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.

11 Vow, and pay unto the Lord your God: let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

12 He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings of the earth.

KEY VERSE: “Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still.” – (Psalm 76:8)

MESSAGE:

When a military dictator died in office some years ago, some people reportedly danced and jubilated on the streets. Many of them had gloomily assumed that he would be around for another decade making their lives a complete misery. But, suddenly, the dictator was gone. Yet, it is unseemly and uncomely to rejoice when any man dies; but who can question the justice of God?

The psalmist in our text spoke about the reach and spread of God’s power and authority. He is present everywhere. He is the One who can rise and save all the meek of the earth. The “wrath of man” shall ultimately praise Him because He can cause the actions of men to fulfil His will eventually. He can cut off the spirit of princes who, having amassed great riches and power, use it to oppress the poor and powerless.

Surprisingly, man has become the greatest instrument he uses in oppressing his fellow man. Dictators free themselves and place all others in bondage. For years, tyrannical kings and emperors have presented a larger than life image of themselves and used their vast powers to crush anyone who tries to challenge their authority.

We should expect God’s justice system to prevail eventually. Believers should not take laws into their hands because vengeance belongs unto Him.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Justice delayed is not justice denied.

TREM Devotional – Forgive Unconditionally

Dr. Mike Okonkwo TREM

TREM Devotional 10 November 2021 Daily Devotional By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – Forgive Unconditionally

TOPIC: Forgive Unconditionally

“Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.” Matthew 18:22 KJV

As you go along in the journey of life, people will hurt you, but you must learn to put the hurts under the blood and forgive unconditionally. You must forgive so that your Father in Heaven will also forgive you. If you do not forgive those who hurt you, it will become a hindrance to you.

In further considering the issue of forgiveness, Peter, who probably had several bitter experiences, asked Jesus for clarifications saying: “…Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?” (Matthew 18:21 KJV). Think of it! If someone hurts you deeply seven times, how would you handle it? Peter reasoned that it is enough to refuse to deal with the person again. But then Jesus shocked him by saying not seven times but seventy times seven. Do you know what that means? 490 per person! How do you count a person’s error to get 490? of course it is impossible! So, Jesus is saying in effect, just keep forgiving.

Are you so deeply hurt and you are saying “Bishop Mike, you don’t understand, what the person did is so bad that even God can understand.” Yes, but in spite of all you have done, Jesus died for you. Do you deserve such a huge price? Of course not! You know you don’t deserve it, yet He died for you. If God can do that for you, why then will you not forgive someone who has done much less? Even after you gave your life to Christ, you still had committed certain sins that you are so ashamed of. Yet, Jesus, with open arms, received and forgave you. So, how can you consider any sin too big to forgive?

When you refuse to forgive, you hold yourself down because God says He won’t forgive you either. So, let go today. If need be, call the person up and pray for the person. Yes, cry if need be, but forgive.

Seeds Of Destiny Devotional

Dunamis’ Seeds Of Destiny 10 November 2021 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche — The Uncontrollable Effects Of Sin

TOPIC: The Uncontrollable Effects Of Sin

When sin is committed, the collateral damages are always dangerous and uncontrollable.

SCRIPTURE: I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the Lord; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah. Psalm 32:5.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: When sin is committed, the collateral damages are always dangerous and uncontrollable.

The Scripture makes it clear that sin goes beyond offending God with our actions. Many times, we think that sin starts and ends by our offending God with our actions.

Sin is the primary offence while the iniquity of sin is the secondary effect. The iniquity of sin refers to the collateral damages and ravages of sin particularly as it affects others. When sin is committed, the collateral damages are always dangerous and uncontrollable.

Let us take David for example.

2 Samuel 11:2-5 gives us the account of where David committed immorality with Beersheba, Uriah’s wife.

Now, the primary sin of David was the sin of lust and immorality. But the effects of his sins were not what he planned for. That is called the iniquity of the sin.

Now, what are the damages?

Number one, the woman got pregnant. David wasn’t planning for pregnancy. All he wanted was fleshly pleasure and nothing More. Then he asked Uriah to go home from the battlefield so Uriah could have relationship with his wife. David wanted to impose the pregnancy on Uriah so that nobody knew he was actually responsible for it, but he did not succeed.

The second effect of David’s sin was murder. All he wanted was to sleep with a woman. But the woman got pregnant and David had to kill her husband through the instrumentality of Joab, his commander. (2 Samuel11:15).

Beloved, the effect of sin is dangerous. By all means, refuse to indulge yourself in sin in order not to reap the ugly effects of it.

Remember this: When sin is committed, the collateral damages are always dangerous and uncontrollable.

ASSIGNMENTS:

  1. Refuse to indulge in any form of sin.
  2. Flee from all appearances of evil.

PRAYER: Lord, I receive the grace to live a life of integrity. Deliver me from sin and its effects, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: THE INIQUITY OF SIN (PART 1)

QUOTE: Iniquity gives the devil access to the life of a person. Culled from “15 KINGDOM STRATEGIES FOR SURVIVAL” by Dr Paul Enenche.

DAILY READING: Acts 16-18

REFLECTION: Are there collateral damages on others or yourself from your sinful actions in time past? Will you ask God for mercy to neutralise those effects? Do.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD: Receive grace and mercy to overcome every collateral damage of iniquity in Jesus’ Name.

DCLM Daily Manna 10 November 2021 Devotional By Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — Why Evil Occurs

 

TOPIC: Why Evil Occurs

TEXT: Ezekiel 9:1-11

1 He cried also in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, Cause them that have charge over the city to draw near, even every man with his destroying weapon in his hand.

2 And, behold, six men came from the way of the higher gate, which lieth toward the north, and every man a slaughter weapon in his hand; and one man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer’s inkhorn by his side: and they went in, and stood beside the brasen altar.

3 And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, whereupon he was, to the threshold of the house. And he called to the man clothed with linen, which had the writer’s inkhorn by his side;

4 And the Lord said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.

5 And to the others he said in mine hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity:

6 Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house.

7 And he said unto them, Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city.

8 And it came to pass, while they were slaying them, and I was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord God! wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel in thy pouring out of thy fury upon Jerusalem?

9 Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceeding great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of perverseness: for they say, The Lord hath forsaken the earth, and the Lord seeth not.

10 And as for me also, mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity, but I will recompense their way upon their head.

11 And, behold, the man clothed with linen, which had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as thou hast commanded me.

KEY VERSE: “Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceeding great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of perverseness: for they say, The LORD hath forsaken the earth, and the LORD seeth not.” – (Ezekiel 9:9)

MESSAGE:

Anne Graham Lotz, the daughter of Billy Graham said, after the September 2011 terrorist attacks on US soil, that God abandoned Americans because of their attitude towards transgender rights, evolution and the separation of church and state. She said, “there is silliness, there is craziness, there’s the most illogical rulings…To me, its evidence that God has backed away. If Americans repent, God would begin to reveal plots of terrorists before they are carried out”.

Ezekiel the prophet was in a dilemma in our text. He wondered how God could order the destruction and killing of His people, including the old and young. He cried to God for mercy when he saw in a vision where the instruction was given to those who had the charge of the city to move in immediately and commence the killing. But God replied Ezekiel that the iniquity of Israel and Judah had gone over the roof and the land was full of blood. On top of that, the people refused to acknowledge the existence of God, claiming He had abandoned the earth and that He “seeth not”. The few in the city who were still praying and sighing over the sinfulness of the place were spared, having been given a mark of identification beforehand.

As humans, we cannot be definitive about why God allows certain things to happen; but surely, the world has ignored Him for too long. Man behaves as if God does not exist. We have taken liberty to the extreme where we feel our knowledge of science and medicine is enough to handle whatever health challenges we have. As believers, we must keep denouncing the evils in our day, weep and pray over our cities for God’s mercy.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
God’s love is revealed in His Judgments.

Jesus - Kimberly Adé Ft. Daniel Ojo & Michael Manhertz

International Canadian Recording Artist, Kimberly Adé is a passionate worshipper with an authentic sound, raw emotion, and a heart that’s desperate for God. Her music journey began at the tender age of five in her hometown of Toronto. She soon began traveling the world ministering the gospel across the United States, the Caribbean, and Europe as part of the dynamic trio The Campbell Sisters.

Her latest single “Jesus” is a simple reminder that at the mention of the name of Jesus demons tremble and flee! That He is the answer, the source and the door to salvation and peace. It’s a reminder that even in the toughest of times we can trust Him because He’s never lost a battle! He is our shield, our strong tower and our refuge.

Romans 10:11 says that “Whoever believes in Him will not be put to shame, and verse 13 says ” For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

“While reading this scripture one day during Devotion the lyrics to this song began to pour into my spirit. I began to think about the saving, healing and transforming power when the name of Jesus is called and how he died a sinner’s death to set us free from the bondage of sin”. – Kimberly Adé

This is the name above every other name; the name in which lives are transformed, chains are broken, curses are shattered and lives are restored. It is the saving, healing, protecting, justifying, redeeming power of God who resides in the Person of Christ, and JESUS IS HIS NAME!

Telegram

And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12

Kimberly has shared the stage with some of the biggest names in the gospel industry and continues to bring a sound that is unique and powerful – a sound that is uplifting and spirit-filled. Her desire is to continue sharing the gospel wherever God leads with conviction, humility and integrity bringing glory to the Father and truth to the nations.

CAC Living Water Daily Devotional – Make The Lord Your Hope

CAC Living Water Daily Devotional

CAC Living Water Daily Devotional | Tuesday, November 9, 2021| Make The Lord Your Hope

Topic: Make The Lord Your Hope

Date: Tuesday, November 9, 2021

Read: Jeremiah 17:5-8

Jeremiah 17:5-8  Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.

For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.

Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.

For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.

MEMORISE:

For you are my hope, O Lord God; You are my trust from my youth (Psalms 71:5)

EXPOSITION

Many people are living hopeless lives. Many don’t know the way out in the situations they find themselves. Many of these have therefore lost hope in life and what it promises to offer. Many have lost hope in perfect health; many have lost hope in promises from their families, friends, and associates. Many have lost hope in the governments of their states or countries, so much that they no longer hope that economies of such states and nations can offer anything good and encouraging. Many things can disappoint you, but God cannot, and will not. He knows the reason He allows that situation to befall you (cf. Rom. 8:28). Put all your hope in Him who will eventually accomplish His perfect will for your life, at the appointed time (cf. Eccl. 3:11).

Why do you put your hope in your buoyant business or fat bank account? They can fail you. Put your hope in God. Make Him your hope. The Psalmist says that the Lord God is his hope, and He has been his trust from his youth (Psa. 71:5). So also, you must make God your Lord, hope and trust. The Bible even reveals that the Lord declares: ‘Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart departs from the Lord’ (Jer. 17:5). The one who puts his or her hope in human beings, anywhere, anytime, would have him/herself to blame for foolishness. To make God your hope, you have to believe in and accept Christ Jesus wholeheartedly that He can do all things (Rom. 10:11). Also, you need to call His name and He cannot disappoint you, and you will be saved (Rom. 10:13).

The Bible says that you will be like a tree planted by the waters, if you make Him your hope. You will not fear any hardship or drought, and you will continually produce the right fruits, no matter the situation of the country, if you make Him your Hope (Jer. 17:8).

PRAYER POINTS

1. Lord, help me to make You alone my hope in this world of uncertainty.

2. Lord, let me overcome the difficult situation of my life, to increase the level of my faith in You.

3. Holy Spirit, enable those in state of hopelessness with hope in You.

TREM Devotional – Be Ready To Forgive

Dr. Mike Okonkwo TREM

TREM Devotional 9 November 2021 Daily Devotional By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – Be Ready To Forgive

TOPIC: Be Ready To Forgive

“And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.” Mark 11:25 KJV

It is very essential for us as believers to walk in love and be ready to forgive. It helps us to stand strong in the Lord. How can one ever say he is a believer and he is filled with bitterness, envy, strife and unforgiveness? Some even make bold to say in their heart, “I will never forgive him or her.” Just imagine if the Lord decides not to forgive you, where will you be? The problem is that you have not sat down to consider how much you were forgiven. If you do, then you will not sit in the judgment corner.

The Word of God declares that in Christ “…we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins” (Colossians 1:14 KJV). If God forgave us, why are you refusing to forgive your husband, your wife, your children, your brother or sister? Why will you as a child not forgive your parents?

Whether you like it or not, wherever there are two or three people, there will always be issues. Jesus had issues with His disciples. There will always be issues but what makes the difference is our relationship with Christ. When Jesus is in the center of our lives and when we pass our relationship through Him, then it will positively affect the person you are not relating well with. So, let Jesus be the center of the reconciliation.

Unforgiveness is a blessing blocker! Walking in hatred is a blessing blocker and more often than not, you block your own blessing when you don’t forgive. The person you refuse to forgive is progressing and you are saying to yourself, “despite all I am doing to this person, he is still succeeding.” Child of God, life is too short to hold on to things that you should release. Let it go so that what God has ordained in your life will be deposited in your life.

Seeds Of Destiny Devotional

Dunamis’ Seeds Of Destiny 9 November 2021 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche — Perfect Health: God’s Will For His Children

TOPIC — Perfect Health: God’s Will For His Children

It is the perfect Will of God for us to be in perfect health and vitality.

SCRIPTURE: Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 2

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: It is the perfect Will of God for us to be in perfect health and vitality.

The Scripture makes it clear that it is the Will of God for us to live in health.

3 John and verse 2 says,

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

It is the perfect Will of God for us to be in perfect health and vitality.

However, once in a while, people slip into ill-health. At times, it may be due to carelessness. For example, someone may over eat or eat carelessly. Eating the wrong combination of food may cause ill-health. Also someone might overexpose himself to cold, walking bare-chested in winter; it could cause ill-health.

People can also slip into ill-health due to disobedience.

The guilt of iniquity can also open the door for ill-health. Sickness can also be caused by enemy confrontations or attacks by the enemy.

These and others are the reasons why someone may fall sick.

Now, there are provisions God has made available for total recovery and victory if one slipped into ill-health. I will give you just a few of them:

  1. Confession and forgiveness of sins (James 5:15-16).

Confession and forgiveness of sins is key to Divine healing and health.

  1. The prayer of faith.

The prayer of faith is where someone who is strong in faith is standing in prayer on the behalf of somebody who is afflicted. (James 5:14).

  1. The Word of faith or the declaration of the Word (Joel 3:10, Mark 11:23).

Speaking and talking to any symptom of disease in your body on a consistent basis is a channel of Divine healing and health.

My counsel is, apply these channels of Divine healing and health to live in perfect health always.

Remember this: It is the perfect Will of God for us to be in perfect health and vitality.

ASSIGNMENTS:

  1. Refuse to do anything that will attract sickness to you.
  2. Apply the channels of Divine healing outlined above to live in perfect health.

PRAYER: Thank You for Your Word to me today. I ask for the grace to live in perfect health always, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

QUOTE: Welfare refers to health, prosperity, peace, favour, completeness, soundness, and quietness. So, when you are in bitterness, you cease to be in peace, and therefore, you are deprived of all these things. Culled from “AM I BITTER?” by Dr Becky Enenche.

DAILY READING: Acts 13-15

REFLECTION: God made man in the Image of His sickless self. The closer we get to God, the further we go from affliction.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD: I curse every root of disease or sickness in your body right now in Jesus’ Name.

DCLM Daily Manna – Blame Game

DCLM Daily Manna 9 November 2021 Devotional By Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — Blame Game

 

TOPIC: Blame Game

TEXT: 2 Kings 6:24-33

24 And it came to pass after this, that Benhadad king of Syria gathered all his host, and went up, and besieged Samaria.

25 And there was a great famine in Samaria: and, behold, they besieged it, until an ass’s head was sold for fourscore pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a cab of dove’s dung for five pieces of silver.

26 And as the king of Israel was passing by upon the wall, there cried a woman unto him, saying, Help, my lord, O king.

27 And he said, If the Lord do not help thee, whence shall I help thee? out of the barnfloor, or out of the winepress?

28 And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, This woman said unto me, Give thy son, that we may eat him to day, and we will eat my son to morrow.

29 So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him: and she hath hid her son.

30 And it came to pass, when the king heard the words of the woman, that he rent his clothes; and he passed by upon the wall, and the people looked, and, behold, he had sackcloth within upon his flesh.

31 Then he said, God do so and more also to me, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat shall stand on him this day.

32 But Elisha sat in his house, and the elders sat with him; and the king sent a man from before him: but ere the messenger came to him, he said to the elders, See ye how this son of a murderer hath sent to take away mine head? look, when the messenger cometh, shut the door, and hold him fast at the door: is not the sound of his master’s feet behind him?

33 And while he yet talked with them, behold, the messenger came down unto him: and he said, Behold, this evil is of the Lord; what should I wait for the Lord any longer?

KEY VERSE: “Then he said, God do so and more also to me, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat shall stand on him this day” (2 KINGS 6:31).

MESSAGE:

Many people have been misled into taking wrong decisions with terrible consequences because they easily run out of patience and blame an innocent individual to be responsible for their predicament.

From the text, Israel experienced a great famine in the days of Elisha. The famine was so intense that food became scarce and very expensive. When a woman narrated how they resorted to cannibalism due to the extremities of the time, the king was infuriated. He thought God was punishing the nation unnecessarily and decided to vent his anger on Elisha, the prophet of God. To facilitate his threat, the king sent an executioner to Elisha who held a meeting with the elders of the land. The king eventually came to the place where Elisha was, expressing his frustration, after the executioner was stayed through the spiritual authority of Elisha.

It is quite unclear why the king of Israel thought Elisha was responsible for the famine that ravaged the land during his reign. It is hard still to understand why he thought killing the prophet would be a solution. He appeared to forget or minimise his own contribution to the crisis, and did not acknowledge the sins of Israel which brought the displeasure of God in the first place.

Many times, we look away from our faults and begin our search for a scapegoat that can be blamed for our own inconsistencies and failure. The Syrians who imposed economic blockade on the nation were not the problem; neither was it Elisha. The sins of the people made God turn these enemies loose on them. We get our relief faster when we repent than when we continue in our rebellion and blame others for the consequences.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Stop searching for scapegoats; look inwards.

Do - Micaiah

Gospel music minister Micaiah is back with her latest release coming at the tail end of 2021. She simply titles this new one “Do.”

The release is complemented with an amazingly beautiful video, in the trend of Micaiah’s releases. She is known for backing her releases with top notch Gospel music videos. Also, the video has a cameo appearance from renowned music producer and Yamaha ambassador, Wole Oni, who is also the brain behind the arrangement and instrumentation.

The single, an African Traditional Folk music laced with Jazz and Soul music elements, acknowledges the omnipotence of God. It is a supplication unto Him to bare His everlasting arm and disrupt normalcy or abnormality through divine intervention.

It is also a worship unto God in the light of the acknowledgment of His all knowing, all powerful nature.

“”DO” was composed at the lowest times of my life. I had no other option, but to cry out to God. Then, when I thought all was going haywire against me, I met one of the most wonderful producers in the world and he co-wrote the verses with me. All thanks to God Almighty, this came through,” Micaiah said.

Micaiah is known for beautiful songs and videos such as “Tani T’Oluwa,” “Kilode,” “Thank You” featuring Mike Abdul, amongst others. As a Gospel music minister, she has been in well over 50 places, around the United States, including the African-American Christian Women’s Conference, in Dallas, Texas, RCCG Georgia, North Carolina, Houston, Nigerian Fashion and Beauty Awards, Houston, Texas and more.

Micaiah has featured in a soon-to-be-released movie by Double O Productions, titled “Roommates.”
