I dont get Nigerian youths sha. You are calling on people to start protest as if your 2 hands and legs are broken
Is there anyone whose job description is to protest? Can you organize one? Why are you always looking for who will fight for you while you sit behind your phone to type rubbish?
Majority of you have never come out for any protest in this country yet you feel you have the right to tell people what to protest on?

THE WORD OF GOD- THE FERTILIZER OF FAITH
Overview
SCRIPTURE: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Anywhere the revelation of God’s Word is available, faith is alive.
Faith is a living seed that has the ability to grow (Luke 17:6). It has been proven that every seed requires the right environment for growth. In the same manner, faith requires the right environment for growth.
One of the right environments for the growth of seed is where light is available. Every seed needs sunlight for growth. Plants are green because they utilise the sunlight in a process called photosynthesis where carbon (iv) oxide, water, and chlorophyll are combined with sunlight to produce carbohydrate and oxygen. It is not possible for plants to be green and alive in the absence of sunlight.
In the same vein, faith is a living seed and the light of faith is the revelation of God’s Word. Anywhere the revelation of God’s Word is available, faith is alive. If your faith must grow, it must receive constant ‘revelational’ light. Just like plants cannot do without sunlight, faith cannot do without constant revelation of God’s Word.
So, if you desire to live in Divine health, graces, financial prosperity etc. as you study God’s Word, trust Him to give you light that will grow your faith in those aspects.
Remember this: Anywhere the revelation of God’s Word is available, faith is alive.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1.Study the Word of God daily to grow your faith.
2.Trust God for ‘revelational’ light as you listen to or study the Word of God.
3.Believe every Word God has spoken concerning your life; never doubt or analyse it.

PRAYER: O LORD, open my eyes to the transforming light in Your Word. Cause me to be addicted to Your Word and let my faith know no bound, in Jesus’ Name.
DAILY READING: Jeremiah 48:1 to 49:22, 2 Timothy 4:1 to 22, Psalm 95:1 to 96:13, Proverbs 26:9 to 12
QUOTE: Anyone who does not take the Bible serious can never operate with faith. Such a person negotiates everything God says. Culled from 15 KINGDOM STRATEGIES FOR SURVIVAL by Dr Paul Enenche.
AMAZING FACT: A sea lion is the first non-human mammal with a proven ability to keep a beat.

THE REALITY OF ETERNITY
Overview
SCRIPTURE: But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 2 Peter 3:10
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Heaven is real! Hell is also real!
I heard a story from Kenneth E. Hagin; he said he had a cousin who got married to a man that hated everything about God. The man hated everything about church and pastors. A time came when the man suddenly felt sick and slipped into coma. After a while, he woke up. He saw the reality of hell while in coma, so he pleaded with his children to call anyone who knew anything about God for him. So they sent for Kenneth Hagin and he came to see the man on his sickbed but it was quite unfortunate that the man slipped back into unconsciousness again. The only way the man could express his experience while passing out was by shouting, ‘Heat! Fire! Darkness!’ Every attempt to bring him back to life was futile. He passed on to eternity in hell. He was looking for God at the wrong time.
Beloved, Heaven is real! Hell is also real! Many people are on their way to eternity in hell. So, it is a matter of urgency to go for the harvest of souls into God’s Kingdom.
Remember this: Heaven is real! Hell is also real!
ASSIGNMENT (S):
1. Live ready.
2. Win at least a soul in a week.
3. Do not allow anything to kill your passion for evangelism.

THE NECESSITY OF SPIRITUAL FIRE
OVERVIEW
SCRIPTURE: Then the king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him:... And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty, If I be a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty. 2 Kings 1:9-10
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Spiritual fire is the amplifier of voice.
From our anchor Scripture, we see that Elijah was a man on fire who could speak to any king on behalf of Heaven. In Bible days, there were people who spoke and determined the direction of a whole nation.
But today, we have very few Christians who can speak to our leaders or address the ills in our society. Why is it that people in positions of leadership, especially in politics do not call for a pastor or a child of God to find out his opinion about any step they want to take? It is because of the bankruptcy of spiritual fire! The shortage of fire is why the voices of many Christians are not heard by authorities, principalities or powers.
The condition of our generation needs voices like that of Elijah that will compel the attention of our generation to God. We do not need voices that are apologetic or voices begging for favour from people in power.
The acquisition of spiritual fire is a necessity because it guarantees audacity and authority. Spiritual Fire is the amplifier of voice. A person who is on fire is authorized to speak on behalf of Heaven.
Remember this: Spiritual fire is the amplifier of voice.
ASSIGNMENT (S):
1. Maintain a permanent stand in God’s Presence.
2. Live a life of prayer.
3. Determine to enforce the order of God on earth.
FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: THE NECESSITY OF FIRE
PRAYER: O LORD, set me on fire with Your Fire. Empower me to be an agent of change in my generation and a terror to the enemies of Your kingdom, in Jesus’ Name.

THE SECRET OF SUPERNATURAL WEALTH
OVERVIEW
SCRIPTURE: But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. Deuteronomy 8:18
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Your root in God determines your riches on earth.
A search through the Scripture has confirmed that in every generation, the richest people were the children of God. In the generation of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Job and Solomon, nobody was wealthier than any of them.
The truth is, it is an aberration to creative agenda for the richest person on earth not to be a Holy Ghost-filled child of God because as far as God is concerned, the wealthiest people in every generation should come from the Church.
Without a doubt, there is nobody richer than God (Psalms 24:1, Haggai 2:8); and there is nobody that can make people rich like God. But the riches of God are sponsored by His principles. So, man must apply these principles in order for God to supply.
Now, one of the secrets of supernatural wealth is The Knowledge of God.
The knowledge of God is a secret of supplies from God (Daniel 11:32). The extent to which you know GOD is the extent to which you see GOOD. Financial strength is a function of spiritual depth. Your root in God determines your riches on earth.
Beloved, it is possible for God to make you rich but you must be rooted in Him.
Remember this: Your root in God determines your riches on earth.
ASSIGNMENT (S):
1. Be desperate for God; study the Bible to know Him more.
2. Be a covenant practitioner; pay your tithe regularly and be generous.
3. Avoid a lifestyle of competition.
FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: THE FOUNDATIONAL SECRETS FOR GODLY WEALTH (PART 5).
PRAYER: O LORD, help me to know You more. I receive the grace, LORD, to be a covenant practitioner; usher me into the realm of abundance for your glory, in Jesus’ Name.

DEDICATION DESPITE DISTRACTION
OVERVIEW
SCRIPTURE: And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless. And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years. Luke 1:6-7
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Divine visitation is waiting for you at your duty post in God’s House.
We live in a world where many people are addicted to pleasure and allergic to inconvenience. Many times, people serve God only when there is little or no pressure.
But I have discovered that dedication to God despite distraction is the most profitable form of dedication. Throughout the Scripture, we see people who were dedicated to God despite diverse challenges confronting their lives and they were not disappointed (Luke 13:10-13, Luke 1:5-17).
Anyone can serve God at ordinary times but it is in times of trials and challenges that we know what a person really believes in.
Now, one of the products of dedication despite distraction is Divine intervention at the place of your dedication.
In Luke 1:5-17, God saw Zachariah, who was childless and stricken in age, faithful at his place of assignment so God changed his story. The angel who visited Zachariah did not look for him at home but at the temple, his duty post. Divine visitation is waiting for you at your duty post in God’s House.
Beloved, diverse distractions of life like temptation, confrontation and accusation can challenge your dedication but remain steadfast in serving God and He will intervene in your situation.
Remember this: Divine visitation is waiting for you at your duty post in God’s House.
ASSIGNMENT (S):
1. If you have no duty post in God’s House, locate one and if you have one, remain steadfast.
2. Ignore every form of distraction at your place of dedication to God.
3. Be a source of encouragement to your brethren in God’s vineyard.

THE IMPACT OF FASTING
OVERVIEW
SCRIPTURE: Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Isaiah 58:6
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Fasting strengthens a person for the battles of life.
Fasting is an act of willing abstinence or reduction from certain or all foods, drinks, or both, for a period of time. It is a spiritual exercise that subdues the flesh and fuels spiritual audacity. It is the practical manifestation of desperation; a desire on fire and a confirmation of self-insufficiency. Fasting loses its meaning when it is not accompanied by prayer and the study of God’s Word.
Now, let us look at one of the products of fasting: Supernatural strength.
The act of fasting is an impartation of strength. In Isaiah 40:31, the Bible says, ‘But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles…’
As the eagles renew their strength by waiting once in a year on top of a rock, so does a person build his spiritual ‘muscle’ by waiting on the Lord in the period of fasting and prayer.
Fasting strengthens a person for the battles of life. It positions a person in a place where he can boldly confront every witch or wizard. Fasting can turn a weak Christian into a strong Christian. It terminates struggles in prayer, studying the Bible, and worship.
Remember this: Fasting strengthens a person for life’s battle.
ASSIGNMENT (S):
1. Engage in a fast at least once a week; always embark on periodic fasts.
2. Pray fervently and study the Word of God whenever you engage in a fast.
