*_BLESSED IN THE LORD_*

🔹Scripture Ref: Deuteronomy 28:3(KJV)
| _Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field.|_

Some people go through life wandering in the dark, hoping that someday, they might just be lucky and things will work out for them. You hear them make statements of hope like, "maybe, if am lucky, I will get the job". Such men have not been exposed to the light of God's word.

Do not hope for luck. Do not hope that God might just do something. No. You are already eternally blessed. Nothing is too good for you or beyond your reach. Because you are born again, you do not function by luck; you walk in the light and power of the Word. The word of God is your light: " _Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path._ " _(Psalm 119:105)_

The light of God in your spirit will direct you to be in the right place at the right time, walking in the paths of divine order that was preordained by God. The light of God in you causes you to walk in divine favour. Whether you are in the city or in the village, you are blessed. The blessing of God is your inheritance. It goes ahead of you and surrounds you and waits on you. God has got everything fixed in your favour. He has placed in your path the right people to help you, at the right time, and in the right place.

God has already blessed you with everything you require for life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3). He has already blessed you with all spiritual blessings in the heavenly places in Christ (Ephesians 1:3). Live like a blessed man or woman; do not hope for luck. Receive the blessing of God that follows you in the city or in the village; acknowledging that it makes you rich and adds no sorrow.

*_SPIRITUAL STRENGTH_*

🔹Scripture Ref: Ephesians 3:16 (NKJV)
|that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man|

As the body can be weak, so can your inner man. God wants you to be strengthened with might in your inner man; that is, energized with divine ability inside.

Many people train their physical bodies to be strong and resilient but God wants us to train our inner man, for that is where true character is built. That is what determines whether you are a man or woman of prayer and understanding or not.

The extent of your growth is a reflection of the influence of God's Spirit in you. When the inner man is energised or strengthened, he causes the body to go ahead and do what it ought to do by the spirit. The inner man also makes the body strong enough to refrain from doing what it shouldnot do.

This is the reason God sent you the Holy Spirit not just to be with you but to be in you. When your inner man is made strong, you will love to to do the things that God loves. You will withstand the winds and storms. You will praise God, study His word and keep digesting it.

The growth process for us who are in Christ, is yeilding our spirit man more and more to the leading of the Spirit of God

*_GROWING IN CHRIST_*

🔹Scripture Ref: 2 Corithians 3:18 (NKJV)
|But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.|

The glory of God came into your life the day you were born again. When Christ took up His abode in you, He began a continuous work of glory in your life.

Your life is meant to go from one realm of glory to another and from Faith to Faith. That means tomorrow should be better than today, next year should be greater than this year: this is the life of the Christian.

Growth is a vital process in the life of every Christian and spiritual food is a necessary ingredient for growth. As food is a necessity for the body, so the word of God is a necessity for human spirit.

Physical growth is rapid and easily noticeable from childhood to adolescence. However, in adulthood, growth is done more inward than outward. As an adult, you may not notice much physical growth, but you should be able to access the level of maturity in your spirit, because even when your body stops growing, your spirit continues to grow as you feed on God's word.

The word is able to build you up if you will give it top priority in your life. This you do by giving your undivided attention to God's word when you study. When you do this, you allow the word of God to gain ascendancy over you: Spirit, Soul and Body.

*_RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD_*

🔹Scripture Ref: Jeremiah 29:12 (AMP)
|"Then you will call upon Me, and you will come and pray to Me, and I will hear and heed you."|

True prayer happens because there is a relationship with God. It is right for a man to pray and expect response from God because He promised to answer our prayer. Prayer is an intimate exchange between the spirit of a man and God. Prayer is having a heartfelt conversation with God. It is the expression of all that you are before God; while He Himself also expresses who He is to you. Prayer is also communication with God.

In our earthly relationships, we communicate expecting a two way exchange. If you end up doing all the talking without allowing for a response from the other person, it means that there was no effective communication. That is the same situation when we communicate with God. Where there is a relationship, there is a two way communication where both parties take part in the exchange.

When we pray to God, He is delighted! Our prayers make him happy. They are His joy. Proverbs 15:8, "The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, but the prayer of the upright is His delight."

Only those that have received Christ qualify to have this exchange or communion with God. Child of God, because of your relationship with God, you have the access to His answers and responses to your prayer.

Hallelujah!

*_PEACE WITH GOD_*

🔹Scripture Ref: Ephesians 2:13(NKJV)
|But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.|

Man by nature is a sinner and this makes him an enemy of God. It is man who is reconciled back to God and not God to man.

It is man who destroyed his relationship with God through sin. The gospel is a message of peace and goodwill to all men. God brought peace between Himself and man through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. God made the effort of restoring friendship in the relationship between Himself and man

It was God in Christ that was reconciling the world to Himself not holding up the sins of man against him. God made the first attempt at a relationship between Himself and man.

Through the shed blood of Jesus Christ, man is now reconciled and in a harmonious relationship with God. Man is no longer estranged from God but now a member of God's family, a heir of God and joint heir with Jesus Christ. The believer has peace with God because he is justified by faith. Peace brings about rest and contentment.

*_THE HOLY SPIRIT AND PRAYER_*

🔹Scripture Ref: Romans 8:26(KJV)
|Likewise the Spirit also helped our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.|

A lot of the wrong choices people make are as a result of their ignorance of God's word. God knows exactly what you require. He also knows that you can unwittingly make wrong choices or even ask amiss when you pray.

The Bible says the Holy Spirit will help you pray when you do not know what to say or how to say it: He will give you the right words to say and help you present your request before the Lord.

The Bible says, " For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the Spirit he speaketh mystries" (1 Corithians 14:2).

Whenever you pray in other tongues it is the Holy Spirit that gives you utterance. The Holy Spirit helps you when you are at loss for words for presenting your request.

*_BE FULLY PERSUADED_*

🔹Scripture Ref: 2Timothy 1:12(NKJV)
|For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for i know whom i have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that day.|

You must be persuaded of God's word; that He will do what He says He will do. In Romans 4:21, Abraham was fully persuaded that what God had promised, He was also to do. It is the unassuming knowledge that whatever God has promised; He is faithful and able to perform. This makes you unperturbed; and gives you such peace because you know it is settled.

This is what makes a man who has been diagnosed with a worrying king of sickness, diseases or infirmity to declare that "I am a new creature; partaker in the divine nature, therefore sickness, disease and infirmity cannot thrive in my body." This can only be declared by the individual who is fully persuaded about God's word.

The Bible talks about Abraham, saying, "He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief..."(Romans 4:20) that is to say, He did not give a second thought to what God told him will come to pass. He did not ask questions, such as "what if it doesnot work?" To walk in Faith, means not to uncertain, unsure or hesitant. For all the promises of God in Him are yes, and in Him Amen," (2Corithians 1:20) that means, they are settled and established.

_*HEALING FOR BROKEN HEARTS*_

🔷Scripture Ref: Psalm 147:3
| He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. |

God's will for mankind is perfect peace and that peace includes tranquility of heart and mind.

According to Isaiah 61:1 and Luke 4:18, part of Jesus' purpose for coming on earth was to heal the broken hearts.

Therefore, the victory on the cross comprised emotional healing as well. Jesus not only healed us from every disease and sickness, but also from every broken heart, frustration and disappointment.

There's no reason to mop about and wallow in self-pity, anger and disillusionment. Liberty from brokenheartedness is obtained in knowing your place in Christ Jesus.

_The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit._ (Psalms 34:18)

Hallelujah!.............................

*_CONSIDER NOT THE CIRCUMSTANCES_*

🔹Scripture Ref: Romans 4:19(KJV)
|And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about a hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara's womb|

Faith is never a denial of the fact, but it is a denial of that fact the ability to dictate the circumstances of one's life. The Bible says Abraham refused to consider the circumstances around him because they all pointed to the impossibility of him having a child.

That is to say, as far as he was concerned the circumstances though facts were not going to be the determining factor to his response to the word of God.

In the journey of life, we must refuse to observe challenges; refuse to observe the contrary situations and adverse circumstances of life.

We must fix our eyes on the word of God and go ahead to win. The Bible says our affliction is light which for a moment.

*_POWER IN THE SPOKEN WORD._*

🔹Scripture Ref: Mark 11:23(NKJV)
|For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, "Be removed and be cast into the sea," and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be fine, He will have whatever he says.|

The words of Jesus reveal that not only are our words potent and come to pass, but one also can talk to anything. This is because all creation, living or non-living, has intelligence. Jesus talked to the wind, the sea; and even to the tree.

As a child of God, when you speak make sure what you say is insync with the Word of God. Your words are loaded with power and authority.

Speak to your body, your business, your marriage, your job and everything that is connected to you; they all have intelligence. Speak what you want to see, and what you want them to bring forth, and it shall be so.

Use your mouth, your words, to program your life in excellence; from victory to victory, and from glory to glory.

*_CREATED IN THE IMAGE OF GOD_*

🔹Scripture Ref: Romans 8:29 (NKJV)
|For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren|

The most beautiful of God is you. You are the perfection of God's creation.

God created everything from the first day to the fifth day He looked at what He had made, and it was good (Genesis 1:4-25). But on the sixth day, after He made man, the Bible says, "God saw everything that He had made, and, behold it was very good..."(Genesis 1:31)

Your life is full of excellence, because you are created in the image and likeness of God. You function like God. You carry the God type of life. You manifest the righteousness of God; this is who you are. You are loving and kind, because the love of God is shed abroad in your heart by the Holy Spirit.

You are not the angry, unhappy, frustrated person that your mind depict you to be.
