EVEN if God did not say a word; Keep trusting Him

Topic: EVEN if God did not say a word; Keep trusting Him

Highlight:

I've commanded you to be strong and brave. Don't ever be afraid or discouraged! I am the Lord your God, and I will be there to help you wherever you go.  Joshua 1:9

I have heard people telling others "don't worry I will be there for you". Most especially between male and female but somehow along the line some unexpected event took place and afterwards one is disappointed.  God is the only one who does not disappoint people who trust Him. The trust relationship between us and God must be understood that if help has not arrived does not mean that help is not coming.

In Joshua 7; Israel was defeated by the inhabitants of the city of Ai, and it was revealed that the reason for the defeat was because one of the Israelites has sinned and kept some of the “devoted things” from Jericho which God forbade.  Sometimes it is obedience and sometimes it is patience. sacrifice by himself (1 Samuel 13:9). Because Saul refuses to listen to God, Samuel says he has forfeited the hope of an eternal dynasty in Israel (1 Samuel 13:13).

And often times God himself may make us go through certain things because His will must be done. Example was Jesus praying that "if" there is a possible way to avoid the cross, that He might avoid it. Critically, though, Jesus immediately binds His request to submission. In virtually the same breath as He makes His appeal, He resolves to obey the will of the Father. Matthew 26:39

The summary of the whole is the God does not sleep nor slumber neither does He gets tired or run out of option or supplies. All He wants is your understanding of the "trust" relationship that you will receive the best from him provided you stay with Him as He is with you.

Do you really want to stay with God? Do you really want to understand God. You must continue to be having undying faith in God. EVEN if God did not say a word; Keep trusting Him

"Jesus did not say a word. But the woman kept following along and shouting, so his disciples came up and asked him to send her away." Matthew 15:23

This is the kind of trust that God is looking from you.

God is Spirit, and those who worship God must be led by the Spirit to worship him according to the truth. Keep trusting him, do not leave him hands off you. Keep trusting, praying on what you trust and know God for. He is indeed a good God. He will never discouraged you.

Prayer: Father what I can fathom is pure love in you. Please let your love stay with me forever in Jesus name I pray. AMEN

How will I fight Back?

 

An Emoji Devotional for Fri 12 July 2024

Topic: How will I fight Back?

Highlight:
The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert, so that the devil could test him.  Matthew 4:1

You cannot believe this. I tell you that most fights were to be fought in the wilderness. It was the wilderness that all the stories of Jesus's ministry scripted from beginning to the end. God forbid, If Jesus had failed that test, you and I would not have been saved Christians by now.

What surprised me is that it was the Holy Spirit who led Jesus into that desert so the devil could test him. Why desert? Why not to the temple or to the sea shore? What did the Holy Spirit want Jesus do? To fight back, you have to been led by the Spirit.

Did Jesus christ went to fight the devil? No, because he went on for forty days without food. This mean the devil was also in the same desert. The devil might have even fasted for some days which I cannot specify but they both went to the desert because an event is about to happen that will change the history of humanity forever.

The devil knows what is at stake so he took the risk to be audacious but he is never confident enough and incoherent in his chats  because the presence of Jesus is greater to make the devil insane and incoherent for the rest of his career.  The devil's first words is no Greetings or exchange of pleasantries. That was the first time the devil was afraid to speak. He could see the twelves battle ready Armies of angels watching him to say something against the plan and they could finish him.
‭
Matthew 26:53 "Don't you know that I could ask my Father, and he would at once send me more than twelve armies of angels?"

The way Jesus answered the devil is like someone who already defined a contest as a winner vs loser.

Jesus answered, “The Scriptures say: ‘No one can live only on food. People need every word that God has spoken.’ ”
The angels are there asking the devil is that all you got? The devil tried and tried but he could not even stand the wisdom of God let alone stand a chance to be coherent in all his word.  Without mincing words it's likely that the devil fell off hitting his head on a stone and rolled down the cliff.

‭
"In heaven the Lord laughs as he sits on his throne, making fun of the nations." Psalms 2:4

‭This made the dragon terribly angry with the woman. So it started a war against the rest of her children. They are the people who obey God and are faithful to what Jesus did and taught. The dragon stood on the beach beside the sea. (Revelation 12:17-18)

So how you fight back? Be lead by the Holy Spirit and be loaded with wisdom of God's word. Watch and pray. Matthew 26:41, Ephesians 6:13

Prayer: Lord Jesus I ask that you grant me grace to use your wisdom and my wisdom from now on. In Jesus name. Amen

Beautiful Name of Jesus that Gives you Upper hand over ghosts, psychics and Witchcraft attacks

Topic: Beautiful Name of Jesus that Gives you Upper hand over ghosts, psychics and Witchcraft attacks

Highlight:

‭that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Philippians 2:10 KJV‬

‭For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
Philippians 2:13 KJV‬

‭Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, And they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
Matthew 1:23 KJV‬

The organic name of Jesus is 'Emmanuel' which means 'God with us'. What this name does is to destabilise and make the psychic powers lose their grips on you. If you have ever been followed by unseen spirits or feeling some sensation in your body which looks like you are under attack.  You will need to be calling "Emmanuel Emmanuel in the name of Jesus" which is interpreted "God with us, God with us, in Jesus name". Then this also means you have ask Jesus to deliver you on His own. If you read my previous Devotions (Emoji Devotional) you will see when I told you that if you want to be saved, all you have do is to believe in Jesus according to Act 16:31. Quickly you have to give your life to Jesus as your GOD and change your sinful bad habits. Yes! Those spiritual and physical things you do that give power to demons and ghosts or psychics and witches to attack you must be surrendered to Jesus. Go read Galatians 5 vs 19 to the end. Jesus must be a God and Savior to yo. Which means Jesus christ has come as God of the new covenant. So No more old covenant names of God again except Emmanueland Jesus in your life. There are other names of Jesus which are living stone, master, author and finisher of faith, lamb of God.  Philippians 2:9 said it all and yours truly this is the remaining thing for all Christians, Pastors, believer, even Isreali to believe which I agree that will make the heaven to open for the rapture.

‭John 12:24 KJV‬
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit"

So those other believe that there is another thing higher than Jesus name must go off totally from your mind. Now that you have Emmanuel and Jesus name. I assure you that all the ghost of this world combination with witches and devil himself will just be wasting their time if they try to do you any wrong. That was why no demon could withstood Jesus in His time on earth because He carried the highest of highest of God's exalted name and Presence.
‭
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: Philippians 2:9 KJV‬

Then you will have to switch from Jehovah. Yahweh and El to Emmanuel and Jesus alone. It is not that other names of God will not answer you but you may still be under attack of those demons even while you are praying with other names. But no demon can dare "EMMANUEL the Living Stone In Jesus name". Hahaha! The global Unified name of Jesus. For mighty powers Read Matthew 21:44 okay let me show you how powerful it is.

And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

The sweetest thing about the name is that the Psychics, ghost, demons, sorceress and witches can use other names of God in their works but they can't use any name associated with Jesus in their coven most especially the name Emmanuel and Jesus and the Living Stone.

This was the parable of the little stone in that it destroyed Goliath and has become today's spiritual GUN for any Child of God to use to fight.  Other names may act as swords and Javelin but "Emmanuel in Jesus name" is a one billion years technology that the devil will never recover from on earth.

It will not work for anyone who has not surrender their selves to Jesus as their GOD and Savior according to LUKE 1:47. Jesus Christ is God and SAVIOR.

If God highly exalted Jesus name above every other name what does that mean He wants from all? Is it not that we all should bow to Jesus as your God?

‭Philippians 2:10-11 KJV‬
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;  and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
In old testament. God is referred to as LORD GOD. Psalms 91:2 ‭says
"I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: My God; in him will I trust."

That is only when you will experience all the powers of deliverance embedded in Jesus.

This is not an argument.  It is a revelation of what was written in the Bible. Jesus is the God that was exalted above all. This truth will shelter you from strongest all all spiritual beast no matter how know you think about it.

Prayer: Emmanuel, Blood of Jesus, Emmanuel, Living Stone, Emmanuel in Jesus name. Holy,Holy, Holy. AMEN.

How to Smell Jesus (throwback)

Topic: How to Smell Jesus


Highlight: 


Won't God protect his chosen ones who pray to him day and night? Won't he be concerned for them? He will surely hurry and help them. But when the Son of Man comes, will he find on this earth anyone with faith? Luke 18:7‭-‬8


Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was told by the crowd to be quiet. In their opinion, he did not deserve to have Jesus listen to him. Bartimaeus refused to be quiet and shouted all the louder as he wanted to meet Jesus. Jesus on hearing his insistence called him over and asked him what he wanted. (Mark 10:46-52)


You should persist you want to see Jesus. Instead of saying "Give me today our daily bread." You might want to say....


"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. I want to see Jesus for urgent assistance"

You have changed the daily bread request to wanting to see Jesus for an urgent assistance. 


Jesus said "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty." John 6:35


The aroma of fresh bread is so good that it is so irresistible. Without needing a map, You cannot miss your way to a bakery when fresh bread are placed in the oven. The pleasant aroma will lead you to the bakery near you once bread is on fire. 


Certainly, Jesus is the bread of life and you can smell him where ever he is, around you. 


How to smell Jesus "The bread of life"?


It is that lovely feeling that happens to when you begin to aspire in good faith that things is beginning to change for good and tomorrow will be just fine hopefully; then Jesus is smelling in the air.  


In Colossians 1:27 ERV the Bible says "God decided to let his people know just how rich and glorious that truth is. That secret truth, which is for all people, is that Christ lives in you, his people. He is our hope for glory."


The glory may be away, but it's perceived as if it's already happening because Christ the bread of life is smelling around.


It is sweet when you perceive Jesus and trace your way to him as fresh bread is perceived and bakery location found. Because if you genuinely find Jesus and take a bite of him. It will be Sweeter when Jesus is perceived through you.

There is this courage and confidence that your life is already made and glory is on its way. The good side of it is that no one will be able to sway you once you take a bite of Jesus.


How to perceive those who have taken a bite of the "bread of life"?


Acts 4:13 AMPC says something it


"Now when they saw the boldness and unfettered eloquence of Peter and John and perceived that they were unlearned and untrained in the schools [common men with no educational advantages], they marveled; and they recognized that they had been with Jesus."


The aroma of Jesus is in His Spirit. For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control. 2 Timothy 1:7 AMPC

Where is your power, love and well balanced mind? 


Do you know that you can bring the aroma of Jesus into any situation. How would you do that? It is by having faith in God.


The Bible says that "Without faith, it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to God. Which means no one can take a bite of the bread of life if they don't believe in God. It faith that produce the hope that give life.


That is why all the men of faith like Joseph, David, Joshua, Daniel, etc in the Bible were very successful. If you have the opportunity to have that good feeling of perceiving Jesus in your life, do not ignore that feeling. Salvation is near!


Prayer: Jesus you are here and it feels like I'm in heaven on earth. Keep me conscious in your presence forever and ever. Amen

Preparing Ground for Divine Action

Topic: Preparing Ground for Divine Action

Highlight:

‭About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing praises to God, while the other prisoners listened. ‭ Suddenly a strong earthquake shook the jail to its foundations. The doors opened, and the chains fell from all the prisoners.

‭The jailer asked for a torch and went into the jail. He was shaking all over as he knelt down in front of Paul and Silas.

Acts 16:25,26&29


When the Jailer knees are bowed to the prisoners then you should understand that something divine has occurred.

Someone reading this may say, I do pray and sing in the midnight so I already know what you have to say... Anyway since you already have the idea of what I want to say, then I will say what Paul and Silas the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ told the jailer who was terrified and would want to know what to do to be saved.

"‭They replied, “Have faith in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved! This is also true for everyone who lives in your home.” act.16:31.

Is your prayer and worshiped designed on faith? Faith in who? "THE LORD JESUS".

Having faith in God and having faith in the Lord Jesus are almost the same. Someone who doesn't believe in Lord Jesus may have faith in God. EVEN a person who proclaimed to believe in Jesus does not pray based on their faith in Jesus. They only use His name but direct their prayers and faith to God.

If you have faith in Jesus, and accept that God has highly exalted Him and place His power on Him, then you will be saved. You too must also cast all your faith and trust which you placed on God totally on Jesus.

Once again this is why you should do so:

‭Then God gave Christ the highest place and honored his name above all others.  So at the name of Jesus everyone will bow down, those in heaven, on earth, and under the earth. Philippians 2:9-10

Prayer: God please help me to surrender totally to our Lord Jesus Christ everyday of our lives. 

Holy Farmer

 

An Emoji Devotional for Mon 24th June 2024.

Topic : Holy Farmer

Highlight:

‭"Jesus replied, “The Son of Man is the farmer who plants the good seed.  The field is the world, and the good seed represents the people of the Kingdom. The weeds are the people who belong to the evil one.  The enemy who planted the weeds among the wheat is the devil. The harvest is the end of the world, and the harvesters are the angels. Matthew 13:37-39 NLT‬

Matthew 6:24 says “No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and be enslaved to money."

Is Christ your firm foundation? Considering the parable of the two farmers. You are now given the opportunity to analyse yourself and give the answer of who you truly are. Who is the farmer that plant you?
Whose seed are you according to the Highlighted verse?

If you truly think you are the seed of Christ Jesus the Holy Farmer, then you should disengage from those weeds that are planted beside you by the evil farmer. Pray to Jesus to keep you from being detracted by the weeds of life so you can become a full grown matured tree that bears fruits for your farmer and master Jesus to be happy about you when the harvests time comes.

As new born babies are coming into the world, Jesus is planting seed while the devil is planting weeds every day. You must understand where these weeds are coming from. Hope you have not taken the weed into your soul. Because someday, the angels will come for the harvest of souls when the time for people to die comes and they will separate the Wheats from the weeds. You know that the wheat will go into the barns and the weeds will be burned.

‭
“As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. Matthew 13:40 NIV‬

What you have known today cannot be erased so you'd better adjust yourself and be the seed from the good farmer because that is the best thing to do.

Prayer: Good farmer. JESUS, I am your seed. I am your seed. COME Lord Jesus, Come I am here, Here I am, all for you. Water me and I shall flourish for you. Amen

Be BIG, for his name is Holy

 

An Emoji Devotions for Wed, 19th June 2024

Topic: Be BIG, for his name is Holy

Highlight:
For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; And holy is his name. Luke 1:49

Praying to God is one of the ways to be Holy because whilst you pray, you will mention God's name. How God's name come into play is that existence and things are programed into God's name. Nothing can ever exist that does not respond to the Holy name of God. What is His Holy name? "Jesus".

Jesus is a Holy name. It has to be reverend and keep sacred. Did you acknowledge that His name is Holy? When you act and live like an angel, you are actively Holy. For example; We were told the nine fruits of the Spirit? Let me put it this way; Did you truly believe in the nine fruits of the Spirit? You can only live in the system you believe.

For example; if someone have a cruel feelings towards others even if such person is calling the name of Jesus every day, it will be hard to fight for long until aggressors return again unless such person switch to ‭"2 Corinthians 5:17"
which says "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."

‭ This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. *For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. Galatians 5:16-17

HOLY HOLY HOLY dwells in the power of this fruit in Galatians 5:22-23 "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

You cannot get this fruits by your human power. You need to ask Jesus to give you the Holy Spirit and Holy Nature. Because the two work well together.
And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins.” Mark 2:22

This is how to be born again: ask Jesus in prayer like the

Prayer: Lord God and Savior Jesus christ; Thank you for your unconditional love for me and your mercies. Please grant me Holy Nature and Holy Spirit so I can see you.
Hebrews 12:14: Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord.
