Topic: Press In [December 7, 2016]
“And the crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of the LORD.” (Zechariah 6:14).
Helem means “Robust” or “healthy” As a child of God, the crown on your head will give you good Health. Whenever the devil wants to take the crown from a believer, one of his major areas of attack is the believer’s body. This is the reason why some of you have escaped accidents successively. The grace of God will shield you from the mischievous devices of the enemy.
It is the wish of God that you remain in good health. Therefore, anything that attacks your body is from the pit of hell. Some of you have been going in and out of hospital as if it is a normal way of life. Today, as we join hands in agreement we serve the devil a quit notice and terminate his attack with immediate effect in Jesus name.
PRAYER/CONFESSION: O Lord my Father, open the windows of my own life in Jesus mighty name. Father, keep me connected always to you in Jesus mighty name. Amen.

Topic: Press In [December 7, 2016]
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly…. – Colossians 3:16
Things in this old world aren’t getting any better, and in recent times, the Holy Spirit has been speaking an urgent message to my heart. He’s been saying, Press in. Draw in to a more intimate relationship with your heavenly Father. If you don’t, you won’t make it. If you do, you will see more glorious outpourings of God than you can imagine.
That message isn’t just for me. It’s also for you—and for every other believer on the earth today. We are in the last of the last days of this age. Jesus is coming soon. It’s an exciting time, but it’s also a dangerous time. Those who don’t do what the Spirit says, who don’t press in to the Lord, are going to go from disaster to disaster. But those who do will defeat the disasters and turn them into glory, in Jesus’ Name!
Your first step in drawing closer to God is to realize that you know God first in His Word. Time spent meditating in the New Testament is time spent with Jesus.
Most people don’t realize that. So, instead of getting to know the Lord through His Word, they try to know Him through their feelings and that just won’t work.
Letting the Word dominate your thinking is to allow the Holy Spirit to have control over your mind. As you do that, your feelings will eventually fall in line.
Remember this: John 1 tells us that Jesus is the Word. That means, when you spend time in it, you’re spending time with Jesus. When His Word is dwelling in you richly, then Jesus is dwelling in you richly too!
Don’t go from disaster to disaster. Take those disasters and turn them into glory, in Jesus’ Name. Press in to Jesus. Press in to the Word and you’ll make it through these dangerous days just fine!

Topic: Flee Idolatry [December 7, 2016]
Text: 1 Kings 18:17-29
Key Verse: “And call on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken” (1 Kings 18:24).
In our world today, competitions are familiar experiences in the field s of sports and entertainment. Wrestlers and boxers particularly,give a clear picture of a fierce contest between two individuals seeking to prove their superiority over each other.Our passage today invites us to come over and witness the defeat and disappointment of the idolatrous.
Following the apostasy of the people of Israel under Ahab, Elijah, the prophet of God was provoked to challenge the worshippers of Baal to present their gods at Mount Carmel for a contest with the true God of Israel. He confronted Ahab with the truth of his negative influence and his idolatrous practices in Israel. Both Ahab and the 850 prophets of Baal as well as the people of Israel were then invited to appear on Mount Carmel to prove which is the true God between Jehovah and Baal.
The confidence that Elijah had in the true God motivated him to challenge the other gods that the people worship. The narrative confirms that the prophets of Baal, in their foolishness, tried their best to prove that their idols could be compared with the true God. Of course, they failed as their gods refused to answer them even after calling from morning till evening and cutting themselves with knives and lancets. At the end of their futile attempts, the Baal prophets became tired, frustrated, and woefully disappointed. They even lost their lives in the process, because Elijah did not spare them.
How true the Scripture is, that:”…they that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them(Psalm 115:4-8). Who is your God? The challenge for us today is to flee idolatry and fight against anything that will separate us from the true God.
Thought for the day: Idolatrous practices attract divine displeasure.

Topic: Parents! Lead The Way [Wednesday 7, December 2016]
Memorise: Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. – Proverbs 22:6
Read: Psalms 127:3-5 (KJV)
3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.
Bible in One Year: Exodus 25-26, Psalms 119:1-16
MESSAGE:
Discipline in the family happens when parents lovingly correct and train their children in accordance with the Word of God, so that they may grow up in the way of the Lord. The type of relationship that exists between parents and their children determines whether the children will be disciplined or not. When a servant misbehaves, you may ignore his offence but when a son or daughter commits the same offence, they should not get away with it. It is the goal of every reasonable parent to ensure that their children are better versions of themselves. On the other hand, some parents are extreme; they don’t discipline, but crush their children. Being high-handed is applying discipline the other way round. Matthew 5:48 says, we should be as perfect as our Heavenly Father; God wants us to be as good as Himself. Jesus, the Prince of Peace wants us to be even better; hence, He says we will do greater works than He did. My joy as the General Overseer of the RCCG is in seeing my spiritual children excel and achieve greater heights than myself. I decree into the lives of everyone using this devotional right now, you will excel in all that you lay your hands on and you will achieve greater heights than myself in Jesus’ name.
Meanwhile, children are naturally naughty, that is why Proverbs 22:15 says:
“Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; But the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.”
Since Adam’s fall, this has been the trend. You do not need to teach a child to be angry before he or she manifests it, even at infancy. It is innate. So when a father wants his child to become like him, he would have to employ his rod of correction. How often do you correct your children? Proverbs 29:15 says any child left to himself will bring shame to the parents and Proverbs 29:17 says the child that is disciplined will give joy and peace to the parents.
Don’t over pamper your children. Don’t spoil them by using love as an excuse. Many ladies do not know how to cook or handle domestic chores because their parents left everything to the house-help. You are undoing your children if you deny them good home training and discipline. You owe it to your children to discipline them. If you fail to give it to them, the result of their indiscipline will haunt you here on earth and you will have a case to answer in heaven.
Prayer Point: Father, please don’t let me disappoint You over my children in Jesus’ name.

Topic: Amazing Grace [December 6, 2016]
“Now, there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in Hebrew tongue Bethsaida, having five porches.” (John 5:2)
The name “Bethsaida” means the house of mercy.
Mercy is what prevents you from getting what you deserve. Grace, on the other hand, is God’s ability to give you privileges you do not deserve. For instance, if you deserve to die because of a wrong done, “Mercy” is what turns it around to give life to you. Simply put, “Mercy” prevents you from getting the punishment you deserve for a wrong doing while “Grace” gives you what you do not deserve. When this mercy combines with grace, it produces “Amazing Grace”. Amazing means “full of wonder”.
In the pool of Bethsaida (House of Prayer), there were five porches. The number five represents Grace. In the same pool, whosoever entered the water first in the season got healed of all diseases.
This year 2016, God’s double grace shall be amazing in your life.
FURTHER READING: John 5:2-9, Psalm 102:13
PRAYER/CONFESSION: My life will be a manifestation of God’s amazing double grace.
WORDS OF WISDOM: The grace of God is not determined by who you are. It is by His mercies.

Topic: The Power Of Your Testimony [Tuesday, December 6th]
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death (Revelation 12:11).
Testifying to the power of God, the integrity and wonders of His Word, and power of the Spirit in your life is so important. Not only will it cause you to experience more blessings, it’ll keep the devil, his demons, and their nefarious schemes under your feet. When God does something for you, with you, or through you, tell it. Be glad to share your testimonies. Never consider anything the Lord does for you to be too small to talk about. Why is this so important?
Apart from your testimonies glorifying God, and inspiring faith in others, it also causes consternation in Satan’s camp. Not every demon knows you, because they don’t know everything. They may know you as a believer, but they don’t know what you have inside you. They really can’t tell what you think or know. They don’t know if you’re full of fear or full of faith; so, they’re going to test you, to find out.
But when they hear your testimonies; the things that your faith has produced, they take notice and flee from you. So, if for example you show up in a new environment, the first thing you should do is to start testifying. Declare your exploits of faith openly. Tell others about it, and in the process, the demons close by will hear and transmit the message to their cohorts to stay away from you, because they can see that you know who you are. Immediately, they’ll become full of fear and very careful of you because they’re very proud figures and they don’t like to be disgraced. They know if they try to mess around you, you’ll cast them out.
But if you don’t testify, they may not know what God has done with your life. Then they’ll start hanging around you, throwing little darts at you from time to time, just to test and distract you. But the Bible says we’re not ignorant of the devices of the enemy (2 Corinthians 2:11); paralyse him with your testimonies. There’s power in your testimony to completely neutralize the adversary and safeguard you against all his devices. The Bible says, “…Resist the devil, and he will flee from you” (James 4:7). Resist him with the word of your testimony.
PRAYER
Thank you Father, for the opportunity to be blessed by your Word, living in, and by its power and dominion. I testify of your goodness and the victories you’ve wrought through me! I testify of the power of your infallible Word that has brought me into a place of strength, power, rest, and dominion. I testify of the miracles of salvation that you’ve wrought through me, and the deliverance, healings, and prosperity I’ve witnessed and experienced in my personal life. Hallelujah!
Further Study: || Mark 5:18-20 And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him. 19 Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee. 20 And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all [men] did marvel. ||
|| Psalm 89:1 I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations. ||
