                                                      March 8.
“And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his son” (I John 5:11).
The word of God carries inherent ability to produce what it talks about; it carries the life and the spirit of God in it. That is why Jesus, emphatically said, “it is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you they are spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63). What Jesus meant in the above statement is that, He was lifting the curtain and letting us see the realities, available in the kingdom.
It means that the word of God carries in them power, energy and the creative ability of God; His words are life giving words, love building words, faith creating words. When a man hears and believes His word, the same creative ability inherent in the word is extended into that man. And the result would be that man now has in him the same nature and all the attributes that makes God.
Jesus is the word of God made flesh (John 1:14) and you must have known by now the new creation (the Christian) is a product of God’s word (1 Peter 1:23; James 1:18). And Jesus speaking while He walked on this earth said, “For as the father hath life in himself; so hath given to the son to have life in himself” (John 5:26). By implication He meant that He had the same form and quality of life as God. He was self-reliant, self-dependent, He lived from inside out, not requiring any help from outside. And His mission here was to supply that same life to whosoever believes.
Beloved, since you believed and receiveth Jesus into your heart, you now have the same quality of life in you! The Bible says, “He that hath the son hath life; and he that hath not the son of God hath not life” (1 John 5:12). It is not a general or a natural kind of life but a special kind of life because the CEV translation of same verse of the scripture says “… if we have God’s son, we have THIS LIFE”.
But it is not enough to have this life in you, you must also distribute it to those who are yet to be born again because like Jesus you’re a life-giving spirit now (I Corinthians 15:45-48).The same way you received this life is the same way they can also receive it. This new life has nothing to do with failure, death or sickness, but has everything to do with success and victory. So make up your mind to deposit this life in someone today – tell someone about Jesus today.

PRAYER: 
Dear Father, I celebrate the divine life I have now in me. I live victoriously distributing this life to those who don’t have it, 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...
