Pastor Chris says
Being filled with the Spirit stirs you
from within and strengthens your
spirit. It brings clarity, confidence, and
vision. You become resistant to worldly
influences and sensitive to God’s voice.
While others struggle to hear or know
what to do, you walk in certainty—led
by the Spirit, empowered to discern and
follow God’s perfect path.

NO CHARGE
AGAINST YOU
(You Are Declared Righteous Friday
and Justified)
1
TO THE BIBLE - Acts 13:38
“Therefore let it be known to you, brethren that through this Man is
preached to you the forgiveness of sins.”
LET’S TALK
T he word “forgiveness” in the verse above is
accurately translated as “remission.” It’s more than
merely being forgiven; it means a complete removal of sins.
The next verse says, “And by Him everyone who believes is
justified from all things from which you could not be justified
by the law of Moses” (Acts 13:39).
So what does it mean to be justified? It means to
be declared righteous, not guilty. Through Jesus Christ,
you’ve been acquitted of all accusations. There’s no case
against you anymore. That’s why Romans 8:1 says, “There
is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ
Jesus.”
Look at it this way: If you owed someone money and
couldn’t pay it back, you’d be in debt. But imagine someone
stepped in and paid it all for you. You’d be free, not because
you paid, but because someone else took care of it for
you. It wouldn’t make sense for anyone to say you were
still owing, because your debt was settled. That’s what the
Lord Jesus did. He paid for our sins. God cancelled the debt
and declared us justified, completely free! No more guilt.
No more shame.
This is why we preach the Gospel. We tell people: You
8
don’t have to struggle to qualify for God’s love or blessings.
All you need to do is accept what He’s done for you. He gave
His life for you. He died, was buried, and went to hell for you
so you wouldn’t have to. He was raised from the dead for
you, with a new life. Now that you’re born again, you have the
same life with which He was raised from the dead. Walk in the
consciousness of this new life: “Therefore we were buried with
Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised
from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should
walk in newness of life.” (Romans 6:4).

Righteous Father, I thank You for the sacrifice of Jesus on
my behalf by which I’ve been made righteous. I walk in and

my righteousness in Christ. Hallelujah!

BORN INTO THE
DIVINE LIFE
(The Christian Is One With The Saturday
Life And Nature Of God)
2
TO THE BIBLE - 1 Peter 1:23
“Having been born again, not of corruptible seed but
incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides
forever”
LET’S TALK
M any people today still think that being a Christian
is just about following Jesus from a distance—
copying His example, trying to live right, and being a better
person. But that’s not the full picture.
A Christian is born of God’s Word and has God’s life
inside him. James 1:18 says, “Of His own will He brought
us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of
firstfruits of His creatures.” When you believed the Gospel—
the message of Jesus Christ—and accepted Him, you were
literally born again. You received a new kind of life, the life
of God Himself.
Think about how Jesus is called the Word made flesh
in John 1:14. When you’re born again, you come from that
same Word in the realm of the Spirit. You’re a partaker of
the divine nature—you’ve become one with God.
The Bible says in 2 Peter 1:4 that we’re partakers
of the divine nature. You have God’s DNA in your spirit!
That means you’re no longer subject to the nature of sin,
death, or defeat. You have the life of God—indestructible,
unstoppable, and full of power.
1 John 5:11-12 (NLT) makes it even clearer: “And this
is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and
this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever
10
does not have God’s Son does not have life.” If you have Jesus,
you have eternal life. You might look the same on the outside
as anyone else, but on the inside, you’re different. You’re of
God! Like 1 John 4:4 says, “You are of God, little children, and
have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than
he who is in the world.” Your origin has changed. You hail from
God, and you have His nature, life, and power inside you!

I’m born of God’s incorruptible seed—the Word—therefore, I
have the life of the Word and walk in the consciousness of my
divine nature. The divine life in me has made me indomitable,
indestructible, and superior to Satan, circumstances, and the
elements of this world. I am victorious, and I fully manifest God’s
glory every day and in every place. Hallelujah!

THE GREAT
EXCHANGE
(The Resurrection Brought Us Sunday
Justification)
3
TO THE BIBLE - 2 Corinthians 5:21
“For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might
become the righteousness of God in Him.”
LET’S TALK
I magine that you’re in a courtroom, standing before
a judge. You know you’re guilty—the evidence is
stacked against you. The sentence? Life in prison. There’s no
way out. But then, out of nowhere, someone steps forward
and says, “I’ll take the punishment. Let him go free.” You’re
shocked. But before you can say a word, the judge agrees,
and just like that, you walk out completely free! That’s exactly
what Jesus did for us.
Romans 4:25 says that the Lord Jesus was delivered
for our offenses—meaning He died because of our sins—
but was also raised to life for our justification (our acquittal,
our freedom). 1 Timothy 3:16 tells us that He was justified in
the Spirit after His resurrection. But why did He need to be
justified? Because He had become “sin” for us (2 Corinthians
5:21).
Think about that for a moment: Jesus—the perfect,
sinless Son of God—didn’t just carry our sins, He became sin.
That means the very nature of sin, everything that separated
us from God, was placed on Him. He was treated as if He
were the worst of sinners—not because He ever sinned but
because He took our place.
After He took our punishment, God raised Him from
the dead with a new life. And because we were in Him, we
also were raised with Him into the newness of life (Romans
6:4)! That’s why when the Father declared, “You are My Son,
12
today I have begotten You” (Psalm 2:7, Acts 13:33)., it was crucial
because it marked when Jesus was born again; He was born
again when God raised Him from the dead.
Now what’s most amazing is that His resurrection means
you’re justified. Hallelujah! The moment you accept Jesus as
Lord, you’re no longer guilty. You’re completely free, declared
righteous before God. You’ve been brought out of the domain
of darkness and catapulted in the Kingdom of God’s Love-
Son. Glory to God!

Pray
Blessed Father, I rejoice, knowing that the Lord Jesus was raised for
my justification—my acquittal. Now I’ve been declared not guilty
and made righteous in Christ Jesus. I live with the consciousness
of my divine nature, celebrating my sin-free life in Christ, in Jesus’
Name. Amen.

ENJOY THE GLORY
NOW
Monday
(The Sufferings Ended With
Christ)
4
TO THE BIBLE - 1 Peter 1:10-11
“Of this salvation the prophets have inquired and searched carefully,
who prophesied of the grace that would come to you, searching
what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ who was in them
was indicating when He testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ
and the glories that would follow.”
LET’S TALK
T he prophets of old, inspired by the Holy Spirit,
spoke about the suffering of Christ and the glory
that would follow. Guess what? Christ already suffered,
which means we’re now in the days of His glory! You don’t
have to struggle, thinking that suffering is a necessary part
of your life. Jesus already paid the full price for you to live
victoriously.
2 Corinthians 5:21 says, “For He made Him who knew
no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness
of God in Him.” 2 Corinthians 8:9 also clearly states that “...
you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He
was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through
His poverty might become rich.”
That means no Christian has to suffer sickness, poverty
or defeat. The Lord Jesus took care of all that so you could
live an extraordinary life! You don’t need to “earn” your way
to victory—He already won it for you.
God loves you, and He has qualified you to be a
partaker of the inheritance of the saints in light (Colossians
1:12). It’s your heritage in Christ to live your best to the glory
of God. He didn’t create you to suffer. He proved that when
14
He said on the Cross, “It is finished” (John 19:30). Now, anyone
who believes in Him and accepts His sacrifice is immediately
welcomed into a life of glory. No wonder 2 Peter 1:3 says we
have been called to glory and virtue.
His sacrifice was enough. Jesus came, lived, died, was buried
and rose again. Now He’s seated in power and glory, and guess
what? You’re seated with Him! All He wants now is for you to
enjoy the glory that resulted from His suffering. There’s nothing
more you need to do beyond what He already did. Hallelujah!

knowing that my righteousness is of you. Hallelujah!

HE’S NOT SLACK ABOUT
HIS PROMISE
Tuesday
(God’s Patience Isn’t a Delay;
it’s an Invitation) 5
TO THE BIBLE - 2 Peter 3:9
“The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count
slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should
perish but that all should come to repentance.”
“B
LET’S TALK
ro, people have been saying Jesus is coming
soon for ages. If He was really coming,
wouldn’t He have come already?” Maybe this was
someone’s response when you tried to talk to them about
the Rapture and get them prepared for it; they mocked
and doubted just like they did in Bible times. 2 Peter 3:3
(TLB) says, “…in the last days there will come scoffers who
will do every wrong they can think of and laugh at the
truth.” Some would even say, “I’ve been hearing about
Jesus coming back since I was a child; if He was ever
coming back, He would have come by now!”
But here’s what they don’t get: God doesn’t
measure time the way we do. 2 Peter 3:8 NLT explains,
“But you must not forget this one thing, dear friends: A
day is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand
years is like a day.” When God communicates a message
to you in a certain way and then repeats it in reverse, He’s
emphasizing that these are not exaggerations or generic
statements. What He’s indicating is that, in prophetic
language, a day can represent a thousand years, and a
thousand years can be like one day. What seems like a
delay to us is actually part of God’s perfect plan.
So why hasn’t Jesus returned? It’s not because God
forgot His promise. It’s because He’s patient. He’s giving
16
people more time to turn to Him. 2 Peter 3:15 NLT says we
should “… remember, our Lord’s patience gives people time
to be saved.” Every extra day is another chance for someone
to find Jesus. So instead of doubting, let this truth fuel your
faith. God’s patience is love in action! Use this time wisely—
share the Gospel, grow in your walk with Christ, and be
ready! Because when the time comes, He will return, just
like He promised.

Dear Father, thank You for your patience in giving people all

THE FINAL
INGATHERING
(The Rapture Will Take Place Wednesday
Once The Set Number Is
Reached) 6
TO THE BIBLE - Romans 11:25
“For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of
this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that
blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the
Gentiles has come in.”
LET’S TALK
I n Romans 11:22-25, Paul talks about Jews and
Gentiles and how God’s salvation plan includes
both. He uses an olive tree as a metaphor to explain it. In
verse 24, he says: “For if you were cut out of the olive tree
which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature
into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who
are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?”
Israel as a nation is currently “blind” when it comes
to recognizing Jesus as the Messiah. But this doesn’t mean
every Jewish person rejects Him—many have believed since
the time of the apostles. The book of Acts even records that
thousands of Jews accepted Jesus as their Savior. However,
as a nation, Israel hasn’t fully recognized Him yet. The verse
also says: “Blindness in part has happened to Israel, until the
fullness of the Gentiles has come in.” The Amplified Classic
version explains it like this: “A hardening [insensibility] has
[temporarily] befallen a part of Israel [to last] until the full
number of the ingathering of the Gentiles has come in.”
Sequel to our study yesterday, we see that there’s a
set number of people worldwide who will accept Jesus, and
18
once that number is reached, the Rapture will happen. So
what does that mean for you? It’s a call to action! Every time
someone accepts Jesus, we’re moving closer to the fulfillment
of God’s plan. This should motivate you to share the Gospel
because you play a part in bringing more people into God’s
family and getting them ready for the catching up alive!

THE URGENCY OF THE
HARVEST Thursday
(Now Is The Time To Share
The Gospel) 7
TO THE BIBLE - Mark 16:15
“And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the
gospel to every creature.”
LET’S TALK
W e’ve learned in our last two studies that God has
a set number of souls that must be won before
the Lord Jesus returns. There’s an urgency in the Spirit to
gather the harvest. Who knows when that last person will
believe? The time is short, and we need to share the Gospel
with more passion and boldness than ever before.
Every soul matters to God, and our mission is to
reach them all. Romans 11:25 (AMPC) talks about “...the full
number of the ingathering of the Gentiles...” This isn’t just
about people hearing the Gospel but actually leading them
to make a personal decision to follow Christ.
Right now, we are living in the greatest harvest season
the world has ever seen. Think about how exciting harvest
time is for a farmer—that’s where we are spiritually! People
all over the world are coming to Christ, and it’s happening
fast because the Holy Spirit is moving mightily.
If you haven’t been actively involved in soul winning,
now is the time to step up. It’s easier now than ever to win
souls because the Holy Spirit is doing a quick work! All you
have to do is open your mouth, and He will fill it with the
right words. God’s power will flow through you, and people
will hear the truth, believe, and be saved. These are exciting
times!
20
The harvest is ready, and we are the laborers. That’s why
we’re taking bold steps to spread God’s Word everywhere.
Make up your mind to join in sharing the life-changing
message of God’s love by distributing TeeVo and reaching
young people in your world.

DID YOU
KNOW?
THE RAPTURE
is a very imminent event during which all those who died
in Christ Jesus and those who are alive in Him at the time
will be taken up to heaven? 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18 and 1
Corinthians 15:50–54 describe it as instantaneous, happening
in the “twinkling of an eye.” That means in a split second, we’ll
be whisked away from this world!
Here are some interesting facts about RAPTURE:
1. The words “caught up” in 1 Thessalonians 4:17 come
from the Latin translation “raptura,” which in English is
“rapture,” meaning “caught up” or “snatched away.” The Greek
word is “harpazo,” which means to seize and take away. We’re
not “ascending” to heaven as Jesus did; we’re going to be
“taken away” or “caught up” to heaven.
2. Three raptures have happened already as revealed
in Scripture: Enoch’s translation into heaven without dying
(Genesis 5:21-24; Hebrews 11:5), Elijah taken up alive in a
whirlwind (2 Kings 2:10-11), and the Old Testament saints
whom the Lord Jesus brought out from their graves at His
resurrection (Matthew 27:50-53, Acts 1:9).
3. Fourth will be the Rapture of the Church. This is the
“catching up alive” of all who died in Christ (1 Thess.4:16) and
22
those who are alive and remain (1 Thess. 4:17). It will take
place shortly from now just before the time of the antichrist
and the tribulation. We also aptly refer to it as “the First
Flight.” Make sure you’re ready for it!
4. Fifth is the rapture of the 144,000 Jewish men
(Revelation 7:1-9); sixth is the rapture of the two witnesses
(Revelation 11:3-12); and the seventh and final one is
the rapture of the great multitude of tribulation saints
(Revelation 20:1-4). We call this “The Second Flight.”
5. At the Rapture, two trumpets will sound, not just
one, as many think. The first trumpet signals the descent of
the Lord from Heaven, and at its sound, the dead in Christ
are raised incorruptible. At the sound of the second (and
last) trumpet, God’s saints who are alive and remain are
instantly transformed and caught up together with them
in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Read again 1
Corinthians 15:51-52 and 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17.
6. The reason for the seeming “delay” of the Rapture
of the Church is because God is long-suffering towards us
(2 Peter 3:9,15), and there’s a definite number that must
believe in Jesus Christ all around the world. That’s what
God is waiting for (Romans 11: 25). Once that number is
attained, the rapture will happen.
7. The Rapture isn’t going to be a long or gradual
process like the Second Coming of the Lord, where He’ll be
in the air long enough for all the nations to see Him. No, it’ll
happen in an instant!

IT’S TIME TO ACT!
Friday
(Act On The Word Of God)

TO THE BIBLE - Hebrews 11:29 NLT
“It was by faith that the people of Israel went right through
the Red Sea as though they were on dry ground. But when the
Egyptians tried to follow, they were all drowned.”
LET’S TALK
W hen Moses and the Israelites were stuck at the Red
Sea with the Egyptian army hot on their heels, Moses
started praying to God for help. But God interrupted him with a
command: “Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to
move on. Raise your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea
to divide the water so that the Israelites can go through the sea on
dry ground” (Exodus 14:15–16, NIV).
The Lord was telling Moses, “This isn’t the time to wait
around; it’s time to act!” Moses obeyed, stretched out his hand,
and split the Red Sea in two. Imagine if Moses had paused
and started asking questions like, “But God, where’s the water
going to go? How is this even supposed to work?” He could’ve
overthought it and missed the miracle. But he trusted God and
did what He said. Later on, Moses and the people sang songs of
praise to GOD: “By the blast of your nostrils the waters piled up.
The surging waters stood up like a wall…” (Exodus 15:8, NIV).
When you believe, don’t ask questions; just act on the
Word! When doubts and uncertainties arise, shake them off and
declare, “All things are possible to me because I believe.” Speak
God’s truths. Utter words of faith—words inspired in you by the
Holy Spirit—and watch God move. Faith is a leap on the Word;
you take your step on the basis of what God has said and refuse
24
to be moved by contrary and opposing circumstances.

THE PRINCIPLE IS
SIMPLE
(Just Ask From The Lord Saturday
And Receive)
9
TO THE BIBLE - Isaiah 65:24 NLT
“I will answer them before they even call to me. While they are still
talking about their needs, I will go ahead and answer their prayers!”
LET’S TALK
I sn’t it wonderful to know that God knows your
heart? He knows your thoughts, your plans, your
future...everything. Even before you pray, He knows what
you need. The Lord Jesus said, “…your Father knows what
you need before you ask Him” (Matthew 6:8 NIV). If that’s
true, and it is true, why then do we pray? Someone might
ask.
We pray because God established prayer as a means
of fellowship between man and Himself. It’s a spiritual
principle. Think about it like this: there are natural laws that
operate in the earth. An example is gravity. We don’t float
in the air because God created the law of gravity to keep us
grounded. In the same way, He set up spiritual principles in
the spirit; one of such principles is prayer.
The Lord Jesus said, “men should always pray and not
give up” (Luke 18:1 NLV). Since He told us to pray, we’re
not supposed to say, “Lord, since you know my mind, I’ll
just stay quiet.” The principle is, “Ask and receive.” The Bible
says, “…Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will
find; knock, and it will be opened to you” (Luke 11:9). It didn’t
stop there; it says in the 10th verse, “For everyone who asks
receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it
26
will be opened.”
Look at the Old Testament; after all the amazing
blessings God promised the children of Israel, He still said
they had to pray. (Ezekiel 36:37). Thank God for the privilege
and opportunity of prayer through which we cause the will of
the Father to be established in our lives, in the lives of others,
and in our world. Glory be to God!

REJECT THE VOICE OF
THE DEVIL
Sunday
(You Don’t Need Testimonies
From Demons) 10
TO THE BIBLE - Acts 16: 16-18
“Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl
possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her
masters much profit by fortune-telling. This girl followed Paul
and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are the servants of the
Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.”. And
this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned
and said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus
Christ to come out of her.” And he came out that very hour.”
LET’S TALK
R eading this story in today’s opening text, you
might wonder, “Why was Paul annoyed? Wasn’t
the girl telling the truth?” She was eulogzing Paul and his
crew as servants of the Most High God, and that was true.
But Paul could perceive something was off. He realized that
she wasn’t speaking by the Spirit of God but by an evil spirit.
That’s why he commanded the spirit to leave her in the
Name of Jesus. And just like that, she was set free.
Even if what the girl said was factual, we don’t need
the testimony from demons to tell us who we are. Jesus
said in John 5:34, “Yet I do not receive testimony from man,
but I say these things that you may be saved.” In other words,
He didn’t need validation from men and definitely not from
demons!
There’s a moment in Mark 1:24 where a demon inside
a man tried to reveal Jesus, shouting, “I know who You
are—the Holy One of God!” But Jesus wasn’t flattered. He
28
shut him up and told him to be quiet and leave. Why? Because
The Father had already testified of Him, and His works also bore
witness to His divine mission (John 5:36-37).
Likewise, Paul didn’t need some demon-possessed girl to
bear witness of his mission. Even though what she said sounded
right, it was a sneaky tactic from the enemy to confuse people or
gain some influence. Paul’s anger wasn’t from a human point of
view; rather, he was spiritually grieved. This is why he commanded
the spirit to come out of her. You must also reject any voices of the
devil that pretend to speak for God and cast them out when they
manifest themselves.

EXPRESSIONS OF HIS
RIGHTEOUSNESS
Monday
(We Produce Fruits Of
Righteousness) 11
TO THE BIBLE - 2 Corinthians 5:21
“For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we
might become the righteousness of God in Him.”
LET’S TALK
Y ou are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
That’s not just a churchy phrase; it’s your true
identity in Christ. You display the virtues and perfections
of Him that called you out of darkness into His marvellous
light.
The Lord Jesus said in John 15:1–5 that He’s the Vine
and we’re the branches. That means we’re the fruit-bearing
part of the Vine. Christ is the head, and we’re members of
His Body with the same quality of life as Himself.
What does that make you? A solution package, a
problem-solver. Think about Jesus: everywhere He went in
Bible days, multitudes thronged Him. They came to Him with
their catalogue of problems, and He solved their problems
and met their needs. He was the solution they needed.
The Bible says as He is, so are we in this world (1 John
4:17). That means when you show up somewhere, whether
at school, at home, or even just hanging out with friends,
you bring Jesus with you. You bring answers. You bring
peace. You bring hope.
So don’t underestimate who you are. Whether you’re
walking down the hallway at school, scrolling through social
media, chatting with friends, you’re representing Jesus. Your
life has purpose. You’re not just here to exist; you’re here to
shine with God’s light and make a difference.

ALL AUTHORITY
RESTORED
(All Dominion Was Delivered Tuesday
To Us Through Jesus’ Death,
Burial And Resurrection) 12
TO THE BIBLE - Romans 5:19
“For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also
by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.”
LET’S TALK
T hink of those moments in stories or films where
the hero is offered everything—riches, power,
fame, influence—if they would only compromise on what
they know is right. It’s a familiar set-up, a tempting offer
that tests the hero’s character. That’s what happened to
Jesus in Matthew 4:8-9. Satan offered Him all the kingdoms
of the world, saying, “All this could be yours if you just bow
down and worship me.” The devil wasn’t merely offering
wealth or power; he was calling for worship, demanding
that Jesus acknowledge his authority over the world.
In Luke 4:6, Satan even said, “All this authority I will
give You, and their glory; for this has been delivered to
me, and I give it to whomever I wish.” Who gave him that
authority? It definitely wasn’t God!
To understand this, we have to go all the way back
to Genesis. In 1 Timothy 2:14, Paul explains that Eve was
tricked by the serpent (Satan), but Adam wasn’t. Adam
knew exactly what he was doing when he chose to disobey
God. That choice—Adam siding with Satan—was treason
against God. He gave up the authority that God had given
him to rule over the earth. Romans 5:12 puts it this way:
“Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world,
and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men.”
By yielding to Satan, Adam handed over his God-
32
given authority to the devil. That’s why 2 Corinthians 4:4 calls
Satan the “god of this world.” He took on a role that was
never meant to be his.
But thanks be unto God! Our Lord Jesus, through His
death, burial and resurrection, reclaimed the dominion and
delivered it back to us. His vicarious sacrifice and restoration
in our behalf was the ultimate victory through which the
power of Satan was broken, and the authority of Christ
was established forever in and through His Church. Glory,
Hallelujah!

OLD TESTAMENT
REFLECTIONS ON THE
RAPTURE
Wednesday
(Understanding The Rapture
Through Prophecy) 13
TO THE BIBLE - Isaiah 26:19
“Your dead shall live; together with my dead body they shall arise.
Awake and sing, you who dwell in dust; for your dew is like the dew
of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.”
LET’S TALK
T he opening verse today gives us a powerful
glimpse into what will happen at the Rapture. To
help us understand it better, let’s refer to the Septuagint.
It says: “The dead shall rise, and they that are in the tombs
shall be raised, and they that are in the earth shall rejoice:
for the dew from thee is healing to them: but the land of the
ungodly shall perish.” In verse 20, God gives a comforting
instruction: “Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers,
and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a
little moment, until the indignation be overpast.”
That “indignation” is God’s judgment, a time of
intense trouble that the Bible says will last for three-and-
a-half years. This is part of the seven-year period called the
70th week of Daniel—a prophecy from the Book of Daniel.
Each “week” represents seven years. Right now, we’re living
in the gap between the 69th and 70th weeks. The 69th week
ended with Jesus’ death, and during this gap, the Church
(all believers in Christ Jesus) has a special role.
During the time of tribulation, many from Israel will
flee to places like Edom and Moab (present-day Jordan) to
escape danger. But those places aren’t the “chambers” God
talks about. They offer temporary safety but not true peace.
In fact, the Bible calls this time “Jacob’s trouble,” meaning
it’ll be especially hard for Israel.
So what are these “chambers”? Isaiah 26:20 is actually
34
pointing to something amazing—the rapture of the Church,
when believers will be taken to heaven. In Old Testament
times, this was a mystery that wasn’t fully understood. But
these prophetic mysteries were later revealed by Paul, who
was given this special ministry to the Church and clarified
aspects of prophecy that had been previously unknown. As
he wrote in 1 Corinthians 15:51–52, “Behold, I shew you a
mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in
a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the
trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible,
and we shall be changed.” Praise God!

BRING FORTH
STRONG REASONS
Thursday
(Take With You Compelling
Words In Prayer) 14
TO THE BIBLE - Isaiah 41:21
“Present your case,” says the Lord. “Bring forth your strong
reasons,” says the King of Jacob.”
LET’S TALK
L uke 7:1–7 tells the remarkable story of the Roman
centurion who had a servant he really cared about
so much so that when the servant got gravely sick, the
centurion asked Jesus to help heal his servant.
Instead of going to the Lord Jesus himself, he sent
some respected Jewish leaders to speak on his behalf. When
the elders approached the Master, He didn’t immediately
go with them until they gave Him compelling reasons why
the centurion was worthy of His attention: “And when they
came to Jesus, they begged Him earnestly, saying that the
one for whom He should do this was deserving, “for he loves
our nation, and has built us a synagogue. Then Jesus went
with them....” (Luke 7:4-6).
Notice the underlined part; the Lord only agreed to
go with them to heal the centurion’s servant after they
presented their strong reasons. And that’s something the
Bible encourages us to do when we pray, especially when
we’re praying for others.
In Isaiah 41:21, God challenged the children of Israel to
bring forth their strong reasons. This is something we take
advantage of when interceding for others: we present our
requests with strong, heartfelt reasons. We take God’s Word
back to Him as the basis for our arguments, explaining why
what we’re asking for has to be done, because it’s in line
with His Word.
Hosea 14:2 says, “Take words with you and return to
36
the Lord.” In other words, in prayer, you go with compelling
words; you bring forth God’s Word concerning the situation
you’re dealing with. So next time you’re interceding—praying
for someone else—take a moment to think: “What are my
strong reasons?” Write them down if it helps. Speak them out
in prayer with confidence, knowing God listens and responds.

THE GOOD NEWS OF
HIS LOVE AND GRACE
(Preach God’s Love And Friday
Goodness)
15
TO THE BIBLE - Romans 2:4
“Do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and
longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to
repentance?”
LET’S TALK
W hen we talk about preaching the Gospel, we
need to understand what that actually means.
The Gospel isn’t a set of rules or a scary warning. It’s not
a guilt trip or a “get-right-or-else” message. The Gospel is
good news, plain and simple!
It’s the announcement that God’s righteousness is
now available to anyone who wants it. And it’s all because
of Jesus. He didn’t come to the earth to point fingers or
condemn anyone. John 3:17 says: “For God did not send His
Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world
through Him might be saved.”
So when the Lord Jesus told us to go out and preach
the Gospel, He wasn’t telling us to scare people into faith.
He was saying: “Tell them about Me. Let the world know
how kind, patient, and full of grace I really am.” That’s what
moves people—love, not fear.
I remember when I used to go for crusades with the
movie “Burning Hell.” It scared people to repentance, but
only for a while. Why? Because fear-based decisions usually
fade. They don’t last. But when someone encounters the
genuine goodness of God, they’re moved to come out of
their darkness. Romans 2:4 says “…the goodness of God leads
you to repentance,” not His anger.
Think about Noah; he preached about the coming
judgement for years, but how many people repented and
entered the Ark with him? It was only his family. The same
40
happened with Lot. But when the Apostles preached the
Gospel (the good news), nations were changed!
The Gospel is the message of hope, love, life, and victory
in Christ. Of course, there’s a hell, and not just hell, but also
the lake of fire where hell itself will be cast into with Satan
and all who reject salvation. But, blessed be God, no one who
believes in Jesus should be afraid of going to hell because
Jesus already went to hell on our behalf! He paid the price
and gave us eternal life, so we can live eternally in victory and
success. He brought life and immortality to light through the
Gospel. Hallelujah!

GOD’S PECULIAR
TREASURE Saturday
(Your Uniqueness in Christ)
16
TO THE BIBLE - I Peter 2:9
“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,
His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him
who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.”
LET’S TALK
D id you know that when you were born again, you
were born with unique attributes that can only
be found in the new creature in Christ? You were born of
the Spirit and the Word with extraordinary features; that’s
because you’re a special breed, a unique species, one of a
kind, and from a divine lineage.
That’s why our opening scripture describes us as a
chosen generation. The term “chosen generation” comes
from the Greek “Genos Eklekton,” meaning an elect or
chosen race, breed, or stock. The word “chosen” implies
being separated or set apart. It’s the same root word from
which we get “sanctified” or “sanctification.”
So, I Peter 2:9 isn’t merely telling us that we’re a choice
amongst many; rather, it emphasizes our unique, distinct
lineage. You’re of a peculiar lineage; it’s got something to
do with your origin, birth, and inherent peculiar nature. It’s
about the breed, how you were born. Your ancestry is divine.
Everywhere you go in this world, keep in mind that you’re
one of a kind. You’re not like everybody else. You’re God’s
choice. The Bible says He gave Himself for you, cleansed
and purified you unto Himself to be His peculiar treasure,
42
zealous of good works (Titus 2:14). Then James 1:18 AMPC
says, “And it was of His own [free] will that He gave us birth
[as sons] by [His] Word of Truth, so that we should be a kind of
firstfruits of His creatures [a sample of what He created to be
consecrated to Himself].” “Firstfruits” means the first and the
best, the cream of the crop. That’s who you are. Blessed be
God!

THE DIVINE
PERSPECTIVE

(The Power Of Renewing

17
TO THE BIBLE - 2 Corinthians 4:6
“For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness,
who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of
the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.”
LET’S TALK
A s a Christian, Christ lives in you, and His
purpose is to reveal and radiate the glory
of God through your life. Your life should be a daily
manifestation of God’s glory. God, who spoke light into
existence at the very beginning, has now shined in our
hearts. Why did He do this? What is the purpose of His
light in our hearts? The answer is in the latter part of that
same verse: “... to give the light of the knowledge of the
glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.” Many people live
their lives according to their feelings, circumstances, or
how others perceive them. But as a child of God, you’re
called to live according to the knowledge of God. This
knowledge is the divine perspective: seeing life as God
sees it and understanding situations as God understands
them. This is called “the Truth.
What does God think about your situation? What
does He know? What does He say? His words are the
ultimate truth. So, live by the knowledge given to us by
God; align yourself with His truth and see life from His
perspective, and you’ll experience the outworking of His
glory in your life. He has given us His Word and His Spirit
to know His thoughts and understand His ways.
Therefore, you’re to live by this higher knowledge—
the knowledge of God. When you truly grasp that
44
God has shined His light in your heart to give you this
divine perspective, you’ll understand that you carry an
extraordinary power within you—the power to manifest His
glory in every situation. This divine knowledge transforms
you and causes you to live victoriously, displaying His glory
to your world.

THE TRUE MEANING
OF HOLY COMMUNION
AND BAPTISM
Monday
(The Importance of The Holy
Communion And Baptism)
18
TO THE BIBLE - I Corinthians 11:26
“For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you
proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes.”
LET’S TALK
S ometimes, people ask if it’s right to partake
of the Holy Communion when they’ve not yet
been baptized in water. First, in Christianity, we have
sacraments like the Holy Communion and Water Baptism.
In Mark 16:15-16, the Lord Jesus charged the disciples
to spread the Gospel to every corner of the earth and
to every person, emphasizing the importance of Water
Baptism: “He that believeth and is baptised shall be saved,
but he that believeth not shall be damned” (Mark 16:16
KJV). In Matthew 28:19 NLT, He said, “Therefore, go and
make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the
name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.”
Then, in I Corinthians 11:23-26, Paul shares an
important revelation he received from the Lord. He
recounts the events of the night the Lord Jesus was
betrayed, highlighting the profound significance of the
Holy Communion. In consequence, Water Baptism and
the Holy Communion are not dependent on each other;
you can partake in the Holy Communion even if you’ve
not been baptized in water. The Bible doesn’t stipulate
that you can only take the Holy Communion if you’ve
been baptized in water. However, in many churches, the
Communion is often reserved for those who are baptized
members. There’s nothing wrong with this practice.
46
The reason many follow this guideline is that baptism is
viewed as a sign of one’s full belief and commitment to the
death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It signifies a
complete acceptance of the Gospel.
Churches typically do not baptize non-believers. This
is why many churches believe that true Christians should be
baptized and therefore may only serve Communion to those
who have been baptized. The practice is commendable and
aligns with the church’s desire to honour the significance
of baptism in the Christian faith.

Dear Father, I recognize the significance of the Holy Communion
and Water Baptism as symbols of my faith and commitment
to you. Every opportunity to partake in the Holy Communion
is my declaration of my victory over Satan, the world and its
elements; it’s a declaration that the Lord Jesus bequeathed His
wealth, rights, and privileges to me, a will which is now in force.
I have eternal victory and dominion over sin, sickness, disease,
death and the devil, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THE GREATER WORKS
OF CHRIST
(You Are the Extension of Tuesday
His Ministry of Love)
19
TO THE BIBLE - John 14:12-14
“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I
do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because
I go to My Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do,
that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in
My name, I will do it.”
LET’S TALK
C arlos stood outside the ICU, heart pounding as
he whispered, “Lord, You said I would do what
You did and even do greater works. I believe.” Suddenly, he
was filled with the boldness of the Spirit as he stepped into
the room where his friend, Ted, lay unconscious. Gripping
his hand, he declared, “In the Name of Jesus, be healed!”
Instantly, Ted stirred, his eyes opened, and his breathing
steadied. He was gloriously healed!
Always remember that you’re not alone; Christ is at
work in you. Look closely at verse 14 of the opening verse: “If
ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it.” Did you notice
there’s no special clause here? There’re no conditions or
exceptions; He said anything. Most people have never truly
understood this enough to take advantage of it. The Lord
Jesus said exactly what He meant and meant exactly what
He said. Anything you ask in His Name is yours. Glory be
to God! In John 16:23 KJV, He tells us more about the day
of the Church: “And in that day ye shall ask me nothing....”
At first glance, this may seem like a contradiction of what
we read earlier in chapter 14. But if you go back to chapter
14 and read from verse 12, you’ll notice what He’s talking
48
about. He said, “...He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall
he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go
unto my Father.”
The “greater works” are possible because Jesus has ascended
to the Father and sent the Holy Spirit to empower us and impact
the world with His love, power, and presence. We’re not limited. He
has equipped us to do the same works that He did. This isn’t just
about performing miracles; it’s about revealing the love and glory
of God through our lives just as Jesus did.

USE THE NAME OF
JESUS
Wednesday
(The Legal Power Behind
the Name)
20
TO THE BIBLE - John 14:13-14
“And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the
Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My
name, I will do it.”
I
LET’S TALK
want you to observe very closely the words of
the Master in our opening verse today. Notice He
didn’t say, “Whatsoever you shall ask me in my name, that
will I do.” Rather, He said, “Whatsoever ye shall ask in my
name.” There’s a crucial difference here. You can’t ask Jesus
something in the Name of Jesus. Instead, you pray to the
Father in the Name of Jesus. Praying to Jesus in the Name
of Jesus is praying without understanding. Some pray this
way without seeing results because they approach prayer
with a religious mindset and not the understanding of what
Jesus taught.
When Jesus said, “Whatsoever ye shall ask in my
name,” He meant that whenever you make a demand or
declare something in His Name, He will make it happen.
It’s about exercising the authority that His Name represents.
In Acts 3:1-16, we see a practical demonstration of this by
Peter and John when they encountered a beggar who had
been lame from birth. In verse 6, Peter said to him, “...Silver
and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the
name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.”
Peter didn’t pray to Jesus. He spoke to the man in the
authority of the Name of Jesus. Peter then took the man
by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately, the
man’s feet and ankle bones received strength. He jumped
up, stood, and began walking, leaping, and praising God.
50
Hallelujah! Afterwards, Peter explained and said to the people:
“By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and
know was made strong. It is Jesus’ name and the faith that
comes through him that has completely healed him, as you can
all see.” (Acts 3:16 NIV). Peter and John were demonstrating
exactly what Jesus taught in John 14:13-14. They used the
authority of Jesus’ Name to perform miracles, signs, and
wonders.
When you speak in His Name, Heaven responds;
miracles happen. His Name carries the same power and
authority of His person. So, when you use it, you invoke His
presence and direct His glory to the situation you’re dealing
with.

THE POWER OF
ATTORNEY IN CHRIST
(Healing, Boldness, and Thursday
21
Victory In the Name of Jesus)
TO THE BIBLE - Acts 3:16
“And His name, through faith in His name, has made this man
strong, whom you see and know. Yes, the faith which comes
through Him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence
of you all.”
LET’S TALK
W hen we pray today, we don’t pray to Jesus in
the Name of Jesus as that would be incorrect
because it suggests using His power of attorney towards
Himself, which makes no sense. The power of attorney Jesus
gave us is to act in His stead, to use His Name as though
He were the one speaking or making a request. Imagine
you have given your lawyer the power of attorney to act
on your behalf. This authority isn’t used to address you but
to interact with others on your behalf. Similarly, Jesus has
given us His Name to represent Him. So, when we say, “In
the Name of Jesus,” it carries the same weight as if Jesus
Himself were speaking. This is one of the greatest honours
we have as Christians.
During our Healing Streams Live Healing Services,
when I declare, “I bring you healing in the Name of Jesus,”
it’s not a simple statement; it’s a declaration of His authority
and power. It doesn’t matter where the people are in this
world or the situation they’re facing; when we use the Name
of Jesus, every hindrance is removed, and the power of God
is released. His Name is an instrument. Hallelujah!
It doesn’t matter what you’ve been diagnosed with;
you can kill whatever it is using the Name of Jesus. Place
your hand over that area and say, “In the Name of Jesus, I
command the sickness to die and pass out of my body.” If
you do it the first time and nothing seems to happen, don’t
despair; refuse to be moved. Remember, “They that observe
52
lying vanities forsake their own mercy” (Jonah 2:8 KJV). You
can declare repeatedly that it’s dead until it dematerializes.
If you’ve been feeling intense pressure in your head, tell
it to loosen up in Jesus’ Name! Perhaps you’re usually attacked
by fear to the point where you don’t like being alone; it’s time
to put an end to it. Even now, address that spirit of fear; say,
“In the Name of Jesus, fear, I rebuke you; get out!” Then start
declaring, “I refuse to fear; I’m bold in the Name of Jesus!”
Maybe you’ve been applying to schools for a long time
now to no avail. You can decide and say, “Today, I’m going to
receive application offers from the best schools, in the Name
of Jesus”. And you’ll get it. Hallelujah! The power of attorney
given to us to use the Name of Jesus is absolute and ineffable.
No circumstance, situation, or demon can withstand that
power.

WORD
SCOPE
“ETERNAL LIFE”
“And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life,
and this life is in His Son” (1 John 5:11).
Eternal life is the life and nature of God. It is not merely endless
existence, but the very essence of divinity—God’s righteousness,
glory, and power. It is the organic and existential attributes of
deity, distinguishing the true God from all others falsely called
gods.
This life was in the Father, given to the Son (John 5:26), and
revealed to us through Jesus Christ. The Scriptures declare, “This
is the true God, and eternal life” (1 John 5:20 TLB). Jesus was the
embodiment of eternal life, made manifest in human flesh: “For
the life was manifested, and we have seen it...” (1 John 1:2).
The glorious truth of the Gospel is that this life is no longer
hidden—it has been made available to all who believe. When you
received Christ, eternal life was imparted to your spirit. It became
your present-hour possession. You are not waiting to receive it in
the sweet by-and-by; you have it now (1 John 5:13).
Eternal life brings you into oneness with God and sets you
above the corruption of this world. It empowers you to live in
righteousness, victory, and divine health. It is the life of absolute
dominion—the same life that flows in the Father flows in you.
Live every day with this consciousness: you have eternal life.
Let it govern your thoughts, influence your words, and direct your
actions. This is the life you were born to live—divine, victorious,
and full of glory.

ASK BoldLY;
REcEivE joyfully!
Friday
(Pray with Confidence, Knowing
the Father Always Answers ) 22
TO THE BIBLE - 1 John 5:14
“This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we
ask anything according to his will, he hears us.”
LET’S TALK
W hen you walk in love, your desires naturally
align with the Lord’s; therefore, you won’t ask
for anything outside His will. He encourages us to ask and
receive so that our joy may be full. What a blessed invitation!
It shows the Father’s desire to bless us. Unlike earthly parents
or others who may become weary of too many requests,
God never grows weary of our many requests. He delights
in answering us and fulfilling our desires.
Therefore, when you ask, believe that you receive.
Jesus did not say to ask and wait indefinitely; He said to
ask and receive. This means from the moment you ask,
start rejoicing and acting as though you already received
because, in the spirit, it’s done.
We often deal with disappointments from people
who don’t keep their promises, but God is not like that. He
is faithful, and He keeps His Word. Humans may fail, forget,
or disappoint, but God never fails. I Peter 3:12 KJV says, “For
the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are
open unto their prayers.„.” Hallelujah!
In Hebrews 13:5 (AMPC), the Bible says, “...for He [God]
Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up
nor leave you without support. [l will] not, [l will] not, [l will]
not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let [you]
down (relax My hold on you)! [Assuredly not].” Ponder those
56
words for a moment and be overwhelmed by the Father’s
love and desire for you to live in fullness of joy, peace,
confidence, dominion and victory every day. He delights in
you and in fulfilling your desires.

GOD’S WORD—A
GUIDING LIGHT
(The Word Brings Clarity and Saturday
Direction)
23
TO THE BIBLE - Psalm 36:9
“For with You is the fountain of life; In Your light we see light.”
LET’S TALK
S ome people allow past experiences or
disappointments to shape their relationship with
God, and that’s wrong. A lot of young people these days
have stopped going to church because they think God
doesn’t answer prayers or He doesn’t care. It shouldn’t be
that way because God’s Word must remain the foundation
of your walk with Him. Your daily relationship with Him
should be guided by His Word, not by what you have faced
or what others say. His Word is the light that guides us
every step of the way.
Remember the words of the psalmist, “Thy word is a
lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path” (Psalm 119:105
KJV). Those who ignore the Word grope in the dark and
face so many calamities in life: “My people are destroyed for
lack of knowledge...” (Hosea 4:6 KJV). The Word of God is
your life and your light, so never be casual or too familiar
with the Word.
Let the truths and realities of the Scriptures stir
you up all the time. Love the Word. Hear the Word and
acknowledge it; and then live the Word. That’s what you
need to win every day. That’s what you need to walk in the
supernatural every day. The Lord Jesus said in John 8:12
KJV, “...I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall
not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” How do
you follow Him?
58
You follow Him in the Word, through the Word, and by
the Word. Then He says, when you follow Him, not only will
you not walk in darkness, you’ll have the light of life. In other
words, you’ll have answers; you’ll have solutions to life’s
issues and problems. You’ll be a victor all the way. You’ll know
exactly which way to go and what the direction for your life
is. That’s what the Word gives you. Light gives direction. Light
shows the way. God’s Word (His Light) illuminates your path
to see, apprehend, and walk in the path God has preordained
for you—His destiny for your life. Hallelujah!

LIVE THE
TRIUMPHANT LIFE
ALWAYS Sunday
(Have The Mindset of
Perpetual Victory) 24
TO THE BIBLE - Psalm 118:24
“This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.”
LET’S TALK
S ome people have never truly experienced the day-
to-day triumphant and supernatural life that God
has called them to live. For them, Christianity is just another
religion, marked by mediocrity and a lack of results. But I
refused to accept that kind of life from the moment I was
born again. I made a decision very early in my life to put the
Word of God to work and live the divine life as exemplified
by Jesus Christ for us in the Word.
Since I made that choice, the results have been
undeniably outstanding and astounding. Thus, I’m confident
to tell everyone “It works! The Word works!” I’m living
proof that it does. Glory to God! I wasn’t going to settle
for a religious experience; no! I saw from the Scriptures
that we are ordained to win always. We walk in blessings
every day and dispense the same to our world. It’s part of
our heritage in Christ. We are the blessed, and we are the
blessing. Hallelujah! How could anyone know this and have
a blue day? Some believe that the transcendent life ended
with the apostles in Bible days; no! We’re living in the reality
of the Bible days right now.
Don’t think or say “Today is just not my day.” Every
day is your day—your day of victory, dominion and favour.
When you wake up in the morning, declare, “Today is my
60
day! I’m excited about today!” Having received the Holy Spirit,
you should never have a single day of defeat or despair.
Everything that comes your way is an opportunity for progress
and promotion. Every challenge is a stepping stone to greater
victories. Have this consciousness and enjoy a glorious day
every day!

SPEAK IN ALIGNMENT
WITH GOD’S WORD
(Speak the Language of Monday
Faith, Not Fear)
25
TO THE BIBLE - Mark 11:23
“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 done, he will have
whatever he says.
LET’S TALK
Y ou must learn to speak in alignment with God’s
Word, not with the language of fear or negativity
that the world teaches. For example, instead of saying, “I’m
afraid it’s going to rain,” simply say, “It’s going to rain!”
Don’t talk fear!
If you’re searching for something and can’t seem to
find it, or you’re trying to move something heavy, what
should your response be? Never say, “I can’t?” You see, that’s
what the world has dropped into the minds of many that’s
so difficult to eradicate. But you’re different. You’re a child
of God, and in our Kingdom, we talk differently. We speak
faith, not fear, doubt, or unbelief. Using the expression “I
can’t” reinforces a mindset of limitation. One might think it’s
just about a specific situation, like not being able to move
something, but it’s more than that. It’s incongruous with
your divine nature. Recall what Paul said: “I can do all things
through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13 NKJV).
In Christianity, we have the “I-can-do” mentality. It forms
the basis for our communication.
2 Corinthians 4:13 also says, “We having the same
62
spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore
have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak” (KJV).
We speak the Word. We speak in alignment with the divine
realities of our heavenly Kingdom. Life is about what you say.
Proverbs 18:21 KJV says, “Death and life are in the power of
the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.” So,
mind your language; speak right. Speak truth; God’s Word is
truth (John 17:17).

STAND IN THE GAP!
(Pray the Prayer of Tuesday
Intercession)
26
TO THE BIBLE - Isaiah 43:26 KJV
“Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou,
that thou mayest be justified.”
LET’S TALK
W hen we pray, especially in intercession, it’s
crucial to understand the legalities involved.
Intercession requires a deep comprehension of these
legalities because it’s an argumentative prayer, where you
present your case, make your claims, and provide the legal
reasons for your requests.
Intercession is different from the prayer of faith,
although it still requires faith. The prayer of faith is often a
single declaration, a one-time statement where you believe
and receive, trusting that it is done. However, intercession
requires importunity, earnestness, and fervency in prayer
because it involves standing in the gap for others. Without
such intensity and persistence in intercession, things could
go awry for those you’re praying for.
In intercession, you stand between God and the
person or people you’re praying for. You step in on their
behalf, presenting your case before God and explaining
why what you’re asking for should be done for them. This is
why it’s important to be clear about your legal position and
claims when interceding. This is much more than just asking
God for something; it’s about understanding the authority
you’ve been given and using it effectively to argue your
case. So, learn to stand in the gap and bring the needs of
others before God in prayer. Study God’s Word intensely
64
to know it intimately so you can use the Word to plead your
case effectively. Remember what He said in Isaiah 41:21 KJV,
“Produce your cause, saith the LORD; bring forth your strong
reasons, saith the King of Jacob.” Then in Isaiah 43:26, He said,
“Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou,
that thou mayest be justified.” Our confidence that He hears
and grants our intercessions is on the basis of His Word.
Blessed be God!

THE
RESTRAINING
FORCE Wednesday
(The Church of Jesus Christ In
These Last Day) 27
TO THE BIBLE - 2 Thessalonians 2:6
“And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in
his own time.”
LET’S TALK
E very Friday evening, Ada led her youth group in
intercessory prayer, not just for their community,
but for the world. One evening, she shared from 2
Thessalonians about the Antichrist and the restraining force.
“We are the force!” she declared, eyes blazing. “Through the
Holy Spirit, we hold back evil.” Inspired, the group prayed
with fervency and went out to evangelize boldly.
In 2 Thessalonians 2:3, Paul, by the Spirit writes, “Let no
man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come,
except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be
revealed, the son of perdition.” The son of perdition refers to
the Antichrist. The Bible describes him as the one who not
only rejects God but also exalts himself above God and sets
himself up as an object of worship (2 Thessalonians 2:4).
This deception is a hallmark of the endtimes, a period of
great spiritual and moral decadence. However, our theme
scripture also gives us a clue about the timeline of these
events; it indicates that something or someone is currently
restraining the Antichrist, preventing him from being
revealed before his time.
Who is this restraining force? It’s the Church, filled
with the Holy Spirit, standing in the gap and holding back
the full manifestation of lawlessness. The presence of the
Church on earth is the restraining force against the powers
of darkness. Paul further clarifies in verse 7, “For the mystery
of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let,
until he be taken out of the way.”
This means that lawlessness is already at work in the
world, but it is being restrained by the Holy Spirit through
66
the Church. We have a significant role to play in these last days.
The Church must continue to stand firm, preach the Gospel, and
live out the truth of God’s Word. Until we are “taken out of the
way,” we have the authority to dictate the timing of the Antichrist’s
revelation.
Our mission is clear: Preach the Gospel to every creature, in
all nations, because only through faith in Jesus Christ can they be
saved. There’s no other way (Mark 16:15-16). We decide the timing
through our actions, our prayers, and the spread of the Gospel.

THE NEW LIFE IN
CHRIST
Thursday
(The Evidence of the New
Man) 28
TO THE BIBLE - 2 Corinthians 5:17
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things
have passed away; behold, all things have become new.”
LET’S TALK
T ara had always battled with low self-worth. She saw
herself through a small lens until, one night, she
heard a teaching on the new creation in Christ. “You’ve been
recreated to look like God and function like Him,” the preacher
said. That truth struck her like lightning. As a child of God,
you have a new nature. This is a fundamental knowledge
for every Christian, yet many haven’t fully grasped it. When
you were born again, it wasn’t just a religious experience;
it was a supernatural transformation. Something incredible
took place in your spirit; a new man with a new nature came
into being.
The human life you were born with was supplanted
by the life and nature of God in Jesus Christ. This is the
true meaning of being born again. The very life and nature
of God that Jesus brought to this world, the organic and
existential attributes of divinity, was imparted to your spirit.
This is why Jesus came. He came to give you a new life, a
supernatural life.
This is what 2 Corinthians 5:17 means: “...If any man
be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed
away; behold, all things are become new.” There’s been a
supernatural transformation now that you’re born again.
Therefore, it makes no difference what obtained in your
natural life prior to your being born again; there’s a new
you! Whether it was a disease, an infirmity, or any other
limitation—now that you’re born again, there’s been a
change.
68
The old “you” wasn’t renovated or revamped but recreated
after the image of God that created you (Colossians 3:10). You were
recreated to look like God and to function like Him. Glory to God!
No wonder He says in Ephesians 4:24 KJV, “...put on the new man,
which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.” This
new you is created in righteousness and true holiness, perfected in
Christ. There’s nothing that’s supposed to be in you that isn’t in you
now. Also, there’s nothing that shouldn’t be in you that’s in you. Now
you can understand why He says “all things have become new”;
everything in your life is new now that you’re born again. It’s crucial
that you know this truth. Your acknowledgement of it activates its
power in your life as the Bible says, “That the communication of
thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good
thing which is in you in Christ Jesus” (Philemon 1:6 KJV). Hallelujah!

Pray
Dear Father, I acknowledge that I’m a new creature in Christ;
old things, including sickness, disease, infirmity, and all kinds of
limitations have passed away, and all things have become new. I
walk in the knowledge of this truth, and its power is fully activated
in my life to live the transcendent life and walk in the fullness of
my new nature in Christ, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

KNOWLEDGE—YOUR
DIVINE IDENTITY
IN GOD Friday
(Embrace Your Purpose Through
Knowledge of Who You Are) 29
TO THE BIBLE - John 8:32
“And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
LET’S TALK
Z ara always felt unseen, like a shadow in a world of
noise. But one day, she stumbled upon Psalm 82:6:
“Ye are gods.” The words struck her heart. Could this truly be
her? She dug deeper, devouring scriptures until John 1:12
confirmed it: she was born of God. One of the fundamental
requirements for the manifestation of truth in anyone’s
life is the knowledge of that truth. Hosea 4:6 KJV says, “My
people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” Ignorance leads
to destruction because without understanding, people walk
in darkness and fail to realize their true potential. Also, in
Psalm 82:6 KJV, the Lord said, “I have said, Ye are gods; and
all of you are children of the most High.” This verse reminds
us of our divine identity and potential. However, many don’t
understand and live in the reality of this truth. We see the
result of this ignorance in the latter part of that verse: “But
ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes” (Psalm
82:7 KJV).
This is the profound reality of our spiritual identity:
we’re as divine as He is divine because we have the same
life with Him. Every so often, declare, “l know who I am!”
Acknowledge your true identity. Knowing who you are in
Christ empowers you and causes you to live triumphantly
every day.
Consider how the Lord Jesus responded to the
72
gruelling interrogation before Pilate. When questioned
and accused, Jesus remained silent until Pilate asserted
his supposed authority saying, “I can free you or have you
crucified.” Jesus then spoke up, summarizing His response
with the acknowledgement of His true identity. He said, “You
have no power over me at all” (John 19:11). Jesus’ initial silence
and subsequent declaration demonstrated His unwavering
understanding of who He was. Just as the Lord Jesus knew His
purpose and identity, you too must recognize and embrace
your divine identity. This knowledge equips you to live boldly
and purposefully, regardless of external pressures or challenges.

CRAVE THE WORD
FOR GROWTH
Saturday
(Desire the Word for Growth)
30
TO THE BIBLE - Hebrews 5:13-14
“For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of
righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to
them that are of full age.”
LET’S TALK
M ilk is every newborn’s primary source of
nourishment. It’s essential for growth, strength,
immunity, and survival. Without milk, an infant becomes
weak and vulnerable. Similarly, the “sincere milk of the
Word” is the believer’s foundational nourishment in Christ
(1 peter 2:2). But as important as milk is, an infant can’t
live on it alone; as he gets older, he would require solid
food for nourishment and growth. That’s what our opening
scripture emphasizes. It tells us that anyone who lives on
milk is still an infant and therefore not acquainted with
the teaching about righteousness. Milk is for beginners;
therefore, to stay on milk is to remain in spiritual infancy.
I Peter 2:1-2 KJV tells us something instructive; it
says, “Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and
hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speaking, as newborn
babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow
thereby.” Only those who are spiritually immature practice
malice, guile, hypocrisy, envy and evil speaking. Such folks
are to crave or desire the pure spiritual milk of the Word
and grow unto maturity.
Recall what Paul said to the Christians in Corinth:
“And l, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual,
but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. I have fed
you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not
able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able” (1 Corinthians
3:1-2 KJV). You must mature in the Word and develop a
74
deep understanding of the Scriptures. Just as in physical
growth where a person moves from milk to solid food,
there comes a time also when a Christian must transition
from the elementary teachings to the deeper, more
challenging doctrines of faith and then be ready to
handle even more complex truths (read Hebrews 5:11-
14).
Make your personal spiritual growth a top priority.
Read Ephesians 4:14-15 NIV, and see God’s desire for
your life: “Then we will no longer be infants...lnstead,
speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every
respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is,
Christ.” Hallelujah!

life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THE EXTENSION OF
CHRIST’S MINISTRY
(The Church Is The Seed Sunday
of Christ On Earth Today)
31
TO THE BIBLE - John 14:12
“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works
that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do,
because I go to My Father.”
LET’S TALK
N ia always felt small and unnoticed in the crowd at
church. “How could God use me?” she’d wonder.
But one day, she heard her pastor say, “You’re Christ’s
extension on earth.” The words lingered. What we just read
in our opening verse are some of the most extraordinary
words from the lips of the Master. He said those who
believe in Him, not only will they do the same works that
He did, but they’ll do greater works. This is only possible
because Jesus has ascended to the Father, and through the
Holy Spirit, His work continues through us.
Recall what the Scripture says in Isaiah 53:10 KJV,
“Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to
grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he
shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure
of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.” This verse speaks
prophetically of the Church, the body of Christ, as the seed
of Jesus Christ. It tells us that after His vicarious sacrifice,
the Lord Jesus will see His seed—the Church—and we shall
prolong His days. Hallelujah!
That’s what’s going on; Jesus multiplies Himself
through the Church today; He continues His mission
through us. In Acts 1:1 KJV, Luke writes to Theophilus about
“...all that Jesus began both to do and teach.” The key word
76
here is “began”; Jesus started the work, but we continue it.
We are the extension of His ministry, teaching, impacting and
transforming lives as He did.
The same Spirit that anointed Jesus for His work resides
in us, enabling us to continue and expand upon what He
started. Through the Holy Spirit, we’re empowered to reach
more people and impact more lives for the Kingdom of God.
The Church is the extension of Christ on earth, living in His
power and authority, fulfilling His mission. This is a calling of
great honour and responsibility. We are His hands, His feet,
and His voice in this world, carrying out the will of the Father
just as Jesus did.
