The Key to Destiny 2

Tuesday 3 May
READ: Matt. 16:19
MORE LESSON: Isa. 22:22

In Isa. 22: 22, the Lord speaks about giving the key of David which enables you to open and nobody can lock, and when you lock nobody can open. The Lord also says in that scripture that He will lay that key upon your shoulder. According to Isa. 9: 6, the shoulder is the resting place of government and dominion. So the key that the Lord is giving you is to equip you with the authority and dominion to reign in destiny. There is a key to each year and each month of the year. There is a key to everything and anything you seek in life and the truth is that, when you have that key, you have access to every desirable contained inside that place. When Jesus was born, the prophecy about him said, ...and she shall bring forth a son . . . for he shall save his people from their sins: Matt 1:21. So Jesus is the key to salvation. He is the key to eternal life and every good thing that you seek.
After receiving Jesus who is the key to fulfilling destiny, another key you need is the key of divine purpose. Your assignment in life is a divine key that the Lord has given you for relevance and greatness in the Kingdom and on earth. One of the greatest discoveries a man can make in life is to discover his purpose in life. It is not enough to have a key in the presence of a door, it is important to have the right key. You will struggle before a door if you don't have a key and similarly you will struggle even more if you hold the wrong key. Your purpose is your personal key, customised for you to unlock everything packaged in destiny. Do not go around trying to be like someone else or imitating what people are doing. Stay and discover your purpose and pursue it diligently. The grace, wealth, strength and success you need in life are inside your purpose. God does not do anything without a purpose. He created you for a purpose and kept you alive for a purpose. A man on God's purpose for his life is stronger than all opposition of men and demons. This is because when a man walks in the assignment of God for his life, God puts all the security, defence and divine immunity he needs in place.
When a man functions in divine purpose and fulfils divine assignment, he commands earth's and Heaven's attention. Matt 16:19, says, I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. As you fulfil your assignment in God's Kingdom doors will open for you taking you to great places this year, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer/Action
* Lord, give me the key that unlocks today’s mystery, in Jesus’ name.
* Holy Spirit of God, help me to walk and work in purpose and calling today.
* Today I shall hear the voice of the Lord for divine direction, in Jesus’ name.

PROPHETIC PRAYER
All that heaven have fixed for me in the month of May shall not be denied or stolen from me, in the name of Jesus.

The Key to Destiny 1

Monday 2 May
READ: Rev. 3:7
MORE LESSON: Isa. 22:22

Keys are essential in life. Without keys, there is no access. If you do not have the key to a door, no matter how much grammar you speak, it remains locked. An aged man without the key is helpless before a door while a small child with the key has power over that door. Have you ever seen a man locked up and then given the key to the lock? Locking up a man that possesses a key is a journey in futility. When God wants to make the enemies to have a futile and frustrated journey over your life, He gives you the key. A key is the power of freedom and the ease of access; it empowers you to reign in the very presence of your enemies.
I want you to know that there are keys to everything in life. Just as there are keys to houses, keys to towns, keys to cities and nations; there is the key to health, wealth, life, greatness and everything you desire. Rev. 3: 7 says, and to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth. There is a key that is above all keys and it is held by the One who has the name that is above all names. This key can open any door and when it opens a door, nothing can shut that door. It also can shut all doors and when it shuts a door, that door remains shut. Jesus Christ is the custodian of the key of resurrection and life. In fact, beyond being the Carrier of the key, He is the Key that opens all things. Jesus came and died, he went to the devil's domain and defeated all the hosts of darkness. He prevailed over them and spoilt them. He collected the key of death from the devil and rose victorious from the dead. After resurrection, He boldly declared, I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death: Rev 1:18.
Jesus doesn't have only the key to wealth, health, peace, joy and eternal life, He also has the key to death and hell. So it is obvious why when you are in league with Him, you will not see untimely death. When you live by His righteousness and holiness, you will never go to hell. This is because He holds the keys of death and hell and He will not use these keys against you. You can also be sure that as you follow Jesus, you will enjoy abundant life, health, greatness and success on every side. He holds the key to these and He will use that key in your favour, this year, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer/Action
* Lord, give me the key that opens 2016.
* I command every closed door of destiny to open, in the name of Jesus.
* I can do all things through Christ who is the Master Key.

PROPHETIC PRAYER
Satan will remain a loser over my destiny in this fifth month, in the name of Jesus

The Grace to Do

Sunday 1 May
READ: Matt. 21:28-31
MORE LESSON: James 1:22-25

One of the first things that was revealed about God in the Bible is that God is a speaking God. Our God is not a dumb and deaf God like the idols of men; He is God of words. In fact God is the Word and the Word is God. So as a child of God, in the similitude of your Father, nothing should shut your mouth in defeat. You must learn how to speak the Word.
I want you to know that God is not just a speaking God, He is a doing God. God is not interested in mere speakers, He is looking for doers. Jesus spoke a parable in Matt 21: 28 – 31 about a man that had two sons. He asked the first son to go work in the vineyard and the son said he would not go but later repented, and went. He spoke to the second son to go and the son said that he would go but he didn't go. Which of these two sons do you think did the will of the father? The father was pleased with the one that eventually went and not the one that said that he would go but did not do so.
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves: James 1:22. The Kingdom of God is not for talkers or hearers or even preachers. It is for doers. The Kingdom is in doing. Did you know that it is not even reading the Bible that makes a man mighty? I have seen people who cannot read at all doing exploits in the Kingdom. There are people that cannot speak a fraction of the vocabulary you speak and do not know as many scriptures as you do, healing the sick and raising the dead. The differentiating mark is in taking steps. There are many people who know all the memory verses on tithes and offerings but don't give. You may know all the methods of evangelism but unless you go and take steps no souls will be saved in the comfort of your room. You do not need great preaching to be a great man of God, you only need great actions borne out of great faith. When any man of godly actions speaks on even little things, the Lord breathes mightily on them.
There is a grace that falls upon a man and he is no longer content with talking, theologising and even preaching, he wants to see God at work in his life. It is this grace that must come upon you in your business, ministry and work. When God baptises you with this grace, you become a man of exploits. Today, receive the grace to do great things, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer/Action
* Lord, help me not to be just a hearer but a doer of Your instructions.
* I receive grace today to do the will of God more than ever before.
* I receive supernatural ability to do beyond my natural strength, in Jesus’ mighty name.

PROPHETIC PRAYER
Father, thank You for denying Satan his desire to stop me from seeing the fifth month, in the name of Jesus.

Peace

Saturday 30 April
READ: Isa. 57: 19 - 21
MORE LESSON: Isa. 32: 17 - 20

Peace means tranquility, rest, well-being, prosperity, health, healing and every good thing you can think of. The Hebrew word for peace is the word 'shalom'. Everything you are looking for in life and eternity is inside that word. However, in the world today one of the things that seems to elude men the most is peace. Many live and there is no peace at home, no peace at work, no peace in their finances, no peace in their body. There is fear, worry and unrest all over them. The question today is, “Do you have peace, can you sincerely look into your heart and say that you are full of peace?” I pray that the Lord will give you peace today and turn your life around.
Jesus said, Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid: Jn. 14:27 (NKJV). It is Jesus that gives peace, so any life without Christ is full of crises. Peace will always elude a man living in sin. The way to overcome every crisis in life and live in peace is to stay in righteousness. No man who lives in sin can have peace. Many people indulge in sin and they put up a façade of enjoying life but they are only faking it. It is all a lie, deep inside, there is emptiness and restlessness. Going to parties, getting drunk, sleeping around or going out with friends to 'catch fun' will never fill the void that is created by the absence of peace in a life. It is righteousness that brings peace. The Bible says, The fruit of righteousness will be peace; the effect of righteousness will be quietness and confidence forever: Isa 32:17 (NIV). A man that does not have Jesus in his life is categorised by God as a wicked man. The man could be rich, he could be popular, he may be a politician, a star artiste or a philanthropist. As long as he is a sinner, he is regarded as a wicked man by Heaven and the Bible says that there is no peace for the wicked ( Isa. 57: 21) .
Today as you accept the righteousness that is freely available through the blood of Jesus and you continue in it by exhibiting His righteousness in your life and deeds, there is one thing that I can assure you - that is 'Peace unto you.'

Prayer/Action
* Prophesy peace all around you today, in Jesus’ name.
* Today, decree the peace of God in every storm and trouble situation, in Jesus’ name

PROPHETIC PRAYER
Satan, all your acts and plans over my life ends with this day and this month, in the name of Jesus.
