Handing over to the Almighty

Text: 1Sam.2:3-9
More Lessons: Dan.4:28-37

There is a God who could make a king like Nebuchadnezzar in all his glory to become an animal. Nebuchadnezzar walked out of his bedroom as an animal. From the throne where he was bragging, he just noticed that he was going down, on four and walked into the bush, he grew claws like an animal. The counsel of God was negatively fulfilled over him instantly. Yet God put disability in the subjects so that they saw but could not harm the “animal” or rebel against him when he came back to the throne. The Almighty God is greater than the greatest. I am talking about handing over the enemy from within and outside, to the One who is capable of dealing with them.

The Bible says that the day Nebuchadnezzar was restored, he came and nobody challenged him to say, “This animal, why do you want to rule us?”For seven years God kept the throne and he ruled over his kingdom again. Today, you are going to say “Father, do to every enemy within and without what you did to your enemies in the days of old”. He took Nebuchadnezzar and made him an animal, He sank pharaoh in the Red Sea after killing all the first born of Egypt, disgraced and humiliated Goliath before his death. That is what God does to His enemy.

You are going to pray, “Father, every enemy that has insisted that my glory will not arrive, every enemy that dreams to remove my coat of many colours, do to them what you are known for doing to your enemies. When you finish, Oh God, let the glory fall upon me contrary to their desire.” Because Joseph eventually realised his destiny, you too will get there. One day his brothers went to buy food in Egypt and they had to bow down to Joseph.

I want to guarantee you that by the time you finish this prayer the angels will have been dispatched. I bless you in Jesus’ name. Whatever the enemy took from you I restore back to you; I deny the enemy access to any information they are using to destroy you, in the name of Jesus Christ. The information they have about you, I delete it, I destroy it! And I give you the right of way, go and achieve your goals. Receive flying colours today. I command that your glory cannot be covered, in the name of Jesus. You will not walk small in glory; you will walk in glory that cannot be covered. Before the end of this month you shall see your colours fly, you shall not be denied, in the name of Jesus. Today you will be located for the next level.

Prayer/Action
* Oh Lord!, be an enemy to my enemies and be ruthless with them in your wrath.
*Ask the Lord to turn every enemy of your life to animals until they repent.
* Say, “In the name of Jesus, Oh enemy, hear the sound of Heaven and melt, in Jesus’ name”. Say this three times and begin to worship the Lord because it is done.

Enemies of your Flying Colours

Text: . Gen.37:13-36
More Lessons: Psa.23:5

There are enemies of your flying colours. As for the glory for you, there is a promise, but you have to deal with the enemies of your glory. Who are these enemies? They are many. That's exactly what glory is like. The higher the glory the more it attracts enemies like insects to light. We are not going to be dealing with all the types of enemies but you can be sure that there are some in your class, even in your village where you have not been for sometime. They've heard about your progress. But the most important one I want to talk and ask you to pray about is the enemy from within.

The enemy within is the strongest. All the people I have mentioned to you had it. What makes the enemy within stronger than every other enemy is because they have all the information about you. I'm talking about vital information that is needed to do anything: your date of birth, the place you were born, in fact, they can tell the world where your head hit the ground at birth. They have it all. They know who your mother is. They are dangerous because, by the reason of the power of information, they can deliver. Whatever is requested and needed for affliction and for destruction, they can deliver. If they need your photograph they have it, if they need your dress, they will deliver. So, they have possession for the purpose of delivery. That makes them very strong and dangerous.

In my place, it is said that if the enemy within does not deliver you to the one outside, the one outside cannot perform. It was the brothers of Joseph who said, We vow this boy must die. The brothers of Joseph were of the same father, they ate the same food, and grew up together with Joseph but his dreams were enemies to them. It's not everybody who likes your dream.

You want to be a pilot and things are working, scholarships are coming. When you become a pilot people will know, they circulate information. Enemies of your progress are worse than murderers. People don't mean evil but they throw information around which is used against you. They will say, “that boy, we know the day his mother gave birth to him, as a matter of fact his father was not around during his naming ceremony”. That's an enemy from within. May every effort of your enemies from within be frustrated, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer/Action
* Ask the Lord to deliver you from enemies too difficult for you.
* Declare that no matter how close the enemies might be, they will not be able to carry out their evil intentions against you.
* Ask the Lord to expose every enemy of your life and deal with them by His might.

Appointed for Glory

Text: Gen.37:1-4
More Lessons: I Cor.15:39-41

While some people from one region line up in the civil service for jobs, some of their classmates that they probably taught in class to pass are “appointed” without lining up. And the moment they are appointed, you don't call them by their names anymore. They are “His Excellency”. May Heaven agree to appoint you. The glory of the star is not the same as that of the moon which is also different from that of the sun.

There is a force which, when it comes upon a man, bypasses what men say, and launches you like a rocket. Before this year runs out, we will hear your name world wide, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. It will be your portion to be appointed. It is the will of God because if you look at all the men that God took to glory in the Scripture, the ones He gave beautiful colours were nobody after all. Let's start from Abel. Cain was the elder brother, Abel was the younger but God favoured the younger, Abel. God accepted his sacrifice and that made Cain angry to the point of killing his brother. Even after Abel died his influence on the earth abides to the New Testament. Can you imagine the voice of a dead man making impact on the throne of Heaven when the living cannot be heard? Then you look at the story of Joseph, one of the last in the family. His father loved him because he was the child of his old age; but he was not the youngest, Benjamin was still there. So it's not an issue of old age at all, it's favour.

Why wasn't Benjamin favoured nstead of Joseph? Joseph was brought out from the crowd to be favoured. You will be favoured among many! In Moses' family they were three, Aaron the eldest, Mariam was next, then Moses. God bypassed Aaron and called Moses. Then there came a day when Aaron and Mariam said to Moses, What do you even think about yourself? They conspired against Moses and God answered for Moses, ... if there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream Num.12:6.

Before God finished, Mariam became a leper. Moses had to plead with God to be merciful. God kept Mariam in that state for two weeks so that she could learn a lesson. You will be appointed for favour and glory, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer/Action
* Ask the Lord to give you grace and glory permanently.
* Say, “I will walk in glory and not in disgrace all the days of my life”.
* Ask the Lord to enlist you as the “glorified one”.

Uncoverable Glory II

Text: Gen.37:1, 3-5.
More Lessons: Matt.5: 14-16

I was in a meeting one day and I was teaching on the gifts of the Spirit. I got to the point where I was explaining the gift of miracles when a deaf and mute boy of about 12 years, who roamed around in a very small town called Ipetu in Kwara State entered. Because the village was so small everybody knew the boy. The parents couldn't control him because he did not even hear what they were saying, so he roamed around the town. This fateful day he entered the church, sat down and watched while I taught.

When I got to the point of trying to explain to believers what the gift of miracle is, and as if to help me do the explanation, I said praise the Lord and the boy stood up and shouted Hallelujah. We had not left the place when the whole town gathered at the church because they heard about the miracle. I don't know how to cover that one. What do you do in that situation? The Bible says when Peter and John healed the man at the beautiful gate, the elders took them and asked them not to preach anymore in this name and decided to rebuke them. They said at the Sanhedrin meeting, For a noticeable miracle has been performed. Nobody can deny this miracle! So what do you do about the people. That's the type of glory I am talking about. You will get one! I'm talking about noticeable miracles. When you talk about glory, there are certain glories that no matter how humble you are, they are there for all to see. They are just there; there is nothing you can do about them. One day, we were to receive Pastor E.A. Adeboye from Lagos; we made sure just very few of us went, we didn't want noise.

The Governor had already told us that we would not be able to use the stadium because of the tension in town. When his aircraft landed, we didn't have to tell anybody anything because all the aircrafts that had been landing were the usual commercial aircrafts. When the jet landed, there were only three people in the aircraft.

Of course people gathered because a private aircraft just landed. And when they would peep to see who was in the aircraft, we had a problem that we didn't prepare to handle. I'm talking about certain measures of glory. What do you think the man of God should do? How does he cover his yam that is spreading now? And I pray for you today, that one day your glory will be so much that you can't cover it anymore. This will happen in a short while. God will pick you from grass and you will find yourself in glory, in the name of Jesus Christ.

Prayer/Action
* As the glory of the sun cannot be covered and it glory of my life shine.
* Ask God to open Heaven and shine on you.
Take time to worship God.
