SPRINGBOARD DAILY DEVOTIONAL

                                                January 11.
“He moved on from there and dug another well, and no one quarreled over it. He named it, Rehoboth, saying, “Now the Lord has given us room and we will flourish in the land”
(Genesis 26:22 NN)
Sometimes, people find themselves in situations that get them discouraged even when they have tried in several ways to get a change, nothing seems to happen. This is when a lot of people lose the confidence and enthusiasm to succeed. Things just happen to them that are so different from their expectation; they fight hard to remain in the game and keep themselves afloat in life, yet their result don’t line up with their expectation.
If you find yourself in such a situation, know that it’s not time to relax and begin to complain, instead you should go deep in the word to condition your heart for success. You must learn to refuse contrary voices that tell you you’re not going to succeed. Whenever such negative thoughts come to you, never you allow it to settle in, instead you should declare boldly that you’re a success. Keep saying who you know you are as contained in the word of God; say it until your spirit is perpetually conditioned to think success and not failure and prosperity and not poverty.
After Isaac departed from Gerar, he ventured into the well business but the enemy was out to frustrate his efforts. Though his first two attempts failed, he did not lose hope. He persevered until he eventually conquered. Isaac did not interpret the future of his business by the prevailing circumstances he was faced with but by the promises of God to him.
A lot of people are failing in the pursuit of their vision because they gave up in the face of challenges, because the business didn’t provide instant profit, they abandoned it and went after some other thing. Furthermore, Isaac went further to expand his business even when there was stiff opposition – he refused to settle for less.
Beloved, like Isaac, you should stop thinking small because with the grace of God available to you, there’s no level you cannot attain. Its time to spread out and lift the bar of your game by knowing more about what you’ve been called to do. You cannot become indisputably outstanding, you cannot increase your sphere of influence until you choose to expand. So beyond the pursuit of your dream, think expansion.

PRAYER: Dear Father, I refuse to give up on my dreams. I keep on pressing to surpass my past results, 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...
