SEPARATE IT UNTO THE LORD
Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liguors: the first born of thy sons shall thou give: unto me. (Exodus 22:29).

Whenever God gives an instruction, there is a blessing attached to it. His principles are eternal and benefitting to as many that subscribe to such.
You do not deal with God as you would a man. When you are demanded to give your first fruit at the beginning of the year, put it to action immediately. Delay or procrastination in giving your first fruit or other offerings to God is actually a delay in receiving from him.
First fruit existed before the law. Abel brought to God the firstlings of his flock and of the fat portions and God honoured it. (Genesis 4:3-4). God being righteous in all His dealings didn’t just ask us to give our first fruits. He demonstrated it by giving His first begotten son for the sins of the world. (John 3:16;1:34).
If you give your first fruit at the appropriate time, the lord will watch over the entire lump-your entire resources. He’ll sanctify, separate and consecrate everything you receive afterwards. He’ll see to it that you don’t encounter lack in your finances. “For if the first fruit be holy, the lump is; also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches (Rom. 11:16).
When you give, there is a promise for a harvest. “Honour the lord with your substance, and with the first fruit of thine increase: so shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst but with new wines. (Pr. 3:9).
Be excited to give your first fruit offering – it is holy unto the lord.

Confession
I have the grace to do all things; I am positioned to achieve greater things in Christ Jesus. My first fruit tithes and other offerings are holy unto God. The devourer cannot touch what belongs to me. In Jesus name – Amen.

WE PASSIONATELY CARE ABOUT YOU
We believe there is a void in every person that only a relationship with God can fill. We’re not referring to finding religion or joining a particular church we are referring to having a relationship with your heavenly father through his son Jesus Christ. We believe that knowing him is the source of true peace and fulfillment in life we encourage you to pray thus: Jesus, I believe you died for me and rose from the dead I hereby confess you as my lord and savior. I receive the life of God into my spirit and now am born again.
Thank you lord jesus for the new life I have now in you. In Jesus name – amen.

                                                  January 29. “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it” (Isaiah 55:11) The life that we’ve been called to live in Christ is the transcendent life. It is a life that’s far removed from failure and defeat. It is a life in the word of God. To manifest the glory and splendor of this life, the word of God should become an integral part of us; what we live by. At salvation, we became associates of the God-kind; we’re joint heirs with Christ. Why then should any Christian suffer defeat and pain? The problem is that we’ve not given the word of God its proper place in our lives. God gave us His word to live by. His word is the revelation of His will, nature and character an...

February 18. “The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available (dynamic in its working)” (James 5:16 Amp) The happenings in our environments and the world over calls for our importunity in prayer. Out of ignorance a lot of people are blaming God for certain occurrences in their lives. But if things must change in the direction of God’s original plans and purposes, then we must keep praying. God knows that there’s no situation a child of His cannot change because the divine power necessary to effect such change is already resident in you; it was deposited in you the moment you became born again. God doesn’t expect you to cry out for help or start complaining but He expects you to enforce your victory in the place of prayer. I Kings 17 tells us of Elijah’s  confrontation with Ahab the king where he said, “… As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my ...

                                                  January 19. “And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great” (Genesis 26:13) Child of God, your journey this year has been ordained only in one direction – upward and forward. This is exactly the way God has called you to live your life. He wants your life to be that of progressand advancement – not in theory but practically. It means that at the end of this year, success will be evidently seen in every area of your life. This is because as a joint heir with Christ, you have the nature to be absolutely successful. You must therefore make up your mind to develop a consciousness – a mentality that’s consistent with your personality in Christ. Bible says, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs 23:7). So, you must refuse thoughts of failure occupy your heart bec...
