OPEN YOUR MOUTH WIDE

4/40 DAY OF PRAYER AND FASTING. Devotion: Psalm 81:10 says that “I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.” We must realise that we serve a mighty God. He is the one who brought the Children of Isreal out of Egypt. Spiritually, Egypt was a place of restoration for Jacob and his Descendants during famine in the times of Joseph. Later on Another King who knew nothing about Joseph ruled Egypt and for the next 400+ years Egypt became a place of Terror, affliction, slavery and operation for Isreal(Genesis 46 and Exodus 1:1-18).Then They cried out to the Lord and He sent Moses to deliver them. This entire process seemed like a dream, an impossible task but God did it. Because they cried out to the Lord. What situation are you facing? Today open your mouth wide cry out to the Lord in faith and see how the Lord will perform as you call on Him in Jesus name.

THE POWER AND MYSTERY OF THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving to God carries tremendous power that the kingdom of darkness can not withstand.
The power in thanksgiving is a mystery every believer must tap in.
It can not be explained how a battle is won by just singing praises to God.
In 1 Thessalonians 5:18 we are commanded by God to give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus.
Thanksgiving is the will of God for us! If you want to live in the will of God start giving thanks to God.
The best place you can ever be in life is to be at the center of God’s will for your life .
Thanksgiving is the will of God for you.

God will not end at just giving you a job , He will not end at giving you only a business idea, He still wants to promote you. As you give thanks, your life will be made whole and complete.
2. Thanksgiving expands your capacity to receive more from God.
If you are not thankful, God can not entrust you with more of his power. David was grateful to God for the power God gave him to kill a bear and a lion, in return God helped him to defeat the philistine, more victory and more power 1 sam17:34 -37.
Receive more strength and power to defeat the enemies of your career, health,marriage, children and destiny.

BUILDING A SOLID FOUNDATION FOR GODS BLESSINGS

by Pastor Blessings Mainsa

SCRIPTURE: Deut 28:1-14

What is a foundation?
-The basis or groundwork of anything.
-Deuteronomy 28 lists some of the blessings that God has promised us and if we have to access these blessings, we must build a solid foundation in which they are to stand.
-Architects tell us that no matter how beautiful a building is , its only a matter of time before cracks begins to show if the foundation is weak.
– we can there therefore draw lessons from an architectural building in the building of our godly foundation that qualifies us for God blessings.
1. We define the purpose of our building and like wise must first discover our purpose in life because our blessings are tied to our purpose JER:29:11

2. Clear the land and likewise this means you have clear out the hindrance of sin. Repent if you are a believer and give your life to Christ if you are not Isaiah 59:1-2

3. You start digging according to architect s measurements. This symbolises labour, work. You have to be a hard worker to qualify for God blessings. Prooverbs14:23, prov 12:24, 1st Thessa 4:11-12

4. In the process of digging, sometimes we meet stones, old foundations or tree stamps. We then must root them out, or break them. Likewise there is a place in Christianity where you must root out satanic plantations and deposits, destroy evil foundations and wage war against forces of darkness blocking your blessings. Jer 1:10, Matthew 7:19, 2nd Cor 10:3-5

5. You look at material requirements and come up with a budget. This symbolises planning and sticking to ones plans requires discipline. Failing to plan is planning to fail. We have to be planners and be disciplined for God to entrust us with his blessings. Lk 14:28, prov 25:28,

6. After the budget , all the resources may not be there and we must trust God. Blessed people are people with earth moving faith, for without faith it is impossible to please God. Faith as little as a mustard seed can move mountains. If you have the money you go and buy in the right quantities and this represents organisation, excellence and order. Our God is perfect and orderly and expects the same from us. To do things with excellence 1st cor 14:40. Matt 5:48

7. Materials are mixed in specific quantities in obedience to builders specifications. This is equated to obeying Gods commands . if we break them, there are consequences Deut 28:1
8. You start building which symbolises, building yourself in Gods word. Psal3:6, psalm119:162, Joshua 1:8,

9. You look at the work done and are grateful for the milestone. This is gratitude to God. Gratitude in small things qualifies you for bigger breakthroughs. 1st Sam 17:34-37

10. You pour water for a number if days and this symbolises consistency and focus… You must be focused and consistent in all your spiritual exercises to see Gods blessing, not on fire today and back to old ways tomorrow finish what you start. Phil 3:13-14

10. If you build your foundation correctly, it means you qualify to build the rest of the house…. This symbolises faithfulness! If you are faithful in small things , you can be trusted with big things but can God trust you with his blessings? Lk16:10.

People who have built their lives in the above godly principles are what we call men and women of strong character. Therefore , strong Godly character is a fundamental requirement to qualify for Gods blessings . Some people have been blessed but because their character(foundation)was weak, the blessing destroyed them.
