LIFE LESSONS FROM THE BOOK OF ISAIAH 40:31(NIV)



"but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."




10 KEYS -WHY YOU NEED TO RENEW YOUR STRENGTH IN THE LORD(Re -edited


)
1. Faith- John 11:40 "-Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?" When the Lord has given you a promise in His word , you need to constantly renew your strength in faith in anticipation of your desired expectation. If not you would lose hope and kill your dream.
2. While you wait upon the lord , you need to be very courageous in the face of your challenge .the key is the more you wait upon the lord the more your strength is being renewed in courage , so as to be able to stand strong after you have done all . Eph 6:13 (NIV)"Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand."
3.Prayer - The key about waiting upon the Lord in prayer is this , the longer the wait , the deeper the prayer gets and the more your strength is being renewed in anticipation of your harvest .So keep praying about your God ordained dream and don't lose hope . James 5:16b (NLT)"The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results."
4.Giving - for you to mount up with wings as an eagle in the financial arena , your strength needs to be renewed again and again . why? It will take grace to give to God what you have never given to Him before .but the more you wait or tarry in His presence , the more the strength will come for you to do that which needs to be done for your finances to take a different turn. Abel gave an offering to the lord and his blood spoke from the ground. Gen 4:10 (NLT)"The LORD said, "What have you done? Listen! Your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground."
5.Thanksgiving - It takes grace to appreciate God , when the facts on the ground is telling you a different story .But here is the key - when you wait upon the lord in thanksgiving , he prepares you to receive what He has promised . ( your dream) Heb 10:36(NIV)"You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised."
6.They shall renew their strength in (joy) . The word of God is joy (John 15:11). Now hear this one , the more we wait the more our strength is renewed in joy .and when you lock unto His joy , you have locked unto your dreams for life . Why? joy will always bring in your harvest .(Dream)John 15:11 (NIV)"I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete."
7.Renewed strength in patience - The longer the wait , the more patient you become and with patience , you can never miss the birth of your dream . Why? He will see to it that it comes to pass right on time . Hab 2:3 (GWT)"The vision will still happen at the appointed time. It hurries toward its goal. It won't be a lie. If it's delayed, wait for it. It will certainly happen. It won't be late."
8.Renewed in love - Love is what helps your faith to work . The more the wait, the more the Lord would renew your strength in love . You find it becomes easy for you to easily forgive others , quick to do good even towards those that hate you . Why ? David gives us this secret in Psalms 119:11 (NIV)" I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you."- When you have the word hidden in your heart , you are careful not to do what is not right ."
9.Renewed expectation - Without expectation , you cannot birth forth your dream . while you wait upon Him , he renews your strength in expectation of your desired dream , that is the more reason you should never give up on your God ordained dream .it will come to pass .Psalm 40:1 (Amp)"I waited patiently and expectantly for the Lord; and He inclined to me and heard my cry."
10.Renewed grace . Every day as you wait upon Him , grace (divine strength ) comes to prepare you for the manifestation of your dream , so you won't give up on it . Key - As long as His grace comes every morning to renew your strength , never give up on that God ordained dream , it will come to pass . hold on to it . Lam 3:23(Amp)" They are new every morning; great and abundant is Your stability and faithfulness."






PRAYER : Father renew my strength as I wait upon you now in Jesus name , Amen.

LIFE LESSONS FROM THE BOOK OF MATT 4:1 (NIV)

"Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil."


10 THINGS YOU SHOULD BE "MINDFUL" OF IN YOUR WILDERNESS.
.




1.Lust - lust of the flesh , lust of the eyes and the pride of life . These three things , have the power of keeping one in his wilderness for a long time , if not properly dealt with . David's house was placed under a curse because he suffered from lust of the eyes , when he saw Bathsheba bathing (2 Sam 11:2) Samson lost his eyes as a result of his flesh (Judges 16:28) Saul lost his throne due to his pride (1 Sam 13:14). The way out is simply to ask the Lord for help .Psalm 50:15"And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me."
2.Fret not - In your wilderness , people are bound to offend you and you also will offend others too . But here is the key - Do not to fret your self at every little thing that passes , but learn to cultivate those good things and be good to those that don't love you . Pslam 37:3 (NLT)"Trust in the LORD and do good. Then you will live safely in the land and prosper."
3.Shun immorality - There is always the tendency for one to fall for this temptation in the wilderness . Why? when it looks like God is taking time to come down like He promised the children of Israel in the wilderness . There is always this temptation for one to engage in something wrong . But what do you do ? you always pray ahead so God can keep from such temptations whenever it comes knocking . Amen. Luke 22:40 (ESV)"And when he came to the place, he said to them, “Pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
4.Discontentment - Comes as a result of when we envy those who have gone ahead of us in life , wanting what they have . Bible says He that compere himself with others is not wise . God knows already what we need even before we ask and scripture says it more better from the book of Eph 3:20 (Amp) " Now to Him who is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly more than all that we dare ask or think [infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams], according to His power that is at work within us,." . with this thought in mind , what do we do ? we simply wait in faith for God to do what He has promised , when we ask . Amen.
5.Self confidence - In your wilderness you have only one source "God " . self confidence is not grace but your flesh trying to play God's role in your life . Jesus said in scripture John 6:63(NLT)"The Spirit alone gives eternal life. Human effort accomplishes nothing. And the very words I have spoken to you are spirit and life."
6.Slothfulness - will keep you from doing those things you needed to do at the right time .Here is what you do - you make an effort to do it at the right time and as you do always ask God for the grace to finish it . His grace is always sufficient . Bible says we should approach His throne of grace with boldness . why? For the simple reason that His grace is always available for us . Amen. Heb 4:16 (NIV)" Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need."
7.Laziness - In your wilderness watch out , never think that your opportunity is not going to come , it will when you are prepared for it . Never allow the enemy to deceive you , terminate that spirit call laziness and keep preparing for your day of opprtunity . Eccl 9:11(Amp)"I again saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift and the battle is not to the strong, and neither is bread to the wise nor riches to those of intelligence and understanding nor favor to men of ability; but time and chance overtake them all."
8.Bitterness - watch out for it . Faith worketh by love . bitterness will surely hinder your faith from working , which the enemy wants .Get rid of it and work in love by faith so you can get to your destination right on time . Amen. Gal 5:6 (Amp)" For [if we are] in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but only faith activated and expressed and working through love."9. Prayerlessness - Listen if you stop praying , is like telling God leave me alone I love where I am now . No friend . Don't be discouraged, have hope and keep praying . God is faithful . Amen. Roms 12:12(Amp)" constantly rejoicing in hope [because of our confidence in Christ], steadfast and patient in distress, devoted to prayer [continually seeking wisdom, guidance, and strength],."
10 . Ingratitude - Simply put Jesus said if you are not faithful in little things , how will you be faithful in the big ones. Be grateful for what you have now , so God can multiply your five loaves and two fishes into 12 baskets of joy , miracles and wonders in Jesus mighty name , Amen. Luke 16:10 (Amp)""If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you won't be honest with greater responsibilities.

LIFE LESSONS FROM THE BOOK OF LUKE 18:7





"And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?"



10 KEYS WHY THE LORD DELAYS HIS VENGEANCE


1.Pre-mature vengeance is not the same thing as ." full vengeance" . Why ? Many believers are still yet to grow spiritually , before vengeance can be put in place.They still complain and murmur even when God is trying to tell them to hold their peace , so He can avenge.Remember what Paul said in scripture , when he was a child he spoke like one . Amen. So our maturity is of more importance to God as we need to grow first , before vengeance can be put in place.Heb 5:12-14(Msg)" By this time you ought to be teachers yourselves, yet here I find you need someone to sit down with you and go over the basics on God again, starting from square one—baby’s milk, when you should have been on solid food long ago! Milk is for beginners, inexperienced in God’s ways; solid food is for the mature, who have some practice in telling right from wrong.
2.prayer - God desires for our prayer life to become more effective and efficient .Most times it is the trial we face that develops that aspect of out lives , Without a challenge , you and I know we won't want to pray "effective" prayers . It is  the challenge /enemies that brings out that effectiveness in our lives .James 5:16 (Amp)"The heartfelt and persistent prayer of a righteous man (believer) can accomplish much [when put into action and made effective by God—it is dynamic and can have tremendous power]."
3.Obedience - Until our obedience to His word is complete , God cannot take vengeance on our behalf . So what is God still saying here ? We still need to grow into son's and not children in His word . There are certain matters in our lives , He expects for us not to act like a child but like a son .Gal 4:1(Amp)" Now what I mean [when I talk about children and their guardians] is this: as long as the heir is a child, he does not differ at all from a slave even though he is the [future owner and] master of all [the estate];"2 Cor 10:5 (Amp)" We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ,."
4.spiritual maturity -Listen , an enemy you have not fully grown to understand his tricks will always come back to torment you . Jesus said something striking from the book of Revelation 2:24 (Amp)" But to the rest of you in Thyatira, who do not hold this teaching, who have not explored and known the [a]depths of Satan, as they call them—I place no other burden on you,." meaning what ? the depths of his deception , bags of tricks .
5.Humility - One thing that really humbles us before God , is when we face the kind of challenge that it will take only the grace of God to bring us out of it. So what is the result ? before vengeance humility before God is put in place .1 Peter 5:6 (Amp)'Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God [set aside self-righteous pride], so that He may exalt you [to a place of honor in His service] at the appropriate time,"
6.Faith - One thing God does with our challenge , is that He uses it to develop our faith to become strong and hardened, to the extent that we are no longer afraid of the devil and we can boldly tell him to get lost . Why? There are certain situations in our lives that when we become tired of that particular challenge , the fear of that thing is gone . Zech 8:10b (Amp)" so I will save you, that you may be a blessing. Fear not; let your hands be strong and hardened.’
7.spiritual warfare - The battle we truly fight , is against principalities , powers of darkness etc. And for us to be able to put up a good fight with the "word" in prayer , we need to be grounded in it .David said something in scripture Psalm 144:1(Amp)"Blessed be the Lord, my Rock and my great strength,Who trains my hands for war And my fingers for battle; ". So before vengeance , there has to be some spiritual training on warfare , so you can fight the good fight of faith and win . Amen.
8.It is the delay , the attacks of the enemy that forces out the anointing He has deposited in our lives in prayer , worship , praise , sacrificial giving etc .before the vengeance . If He takes vengeance before then , the anointing upon your life will remain dormant. The adversity is what presses out the anointing before vengeance is carried out .2 Cor 1: 8-11(Msg)"1 We don’t want you in the dark, friends, about how hard it was when all this came down on us in Asia province. It was so bad we didn’t think we were going to make it. We felt like we’d been sent to death row, that it was all over for us. As it turned out, it was the best thing that could have happened. Instead of trusting in our own strength or wits to get out of it, we were forced to trust God totally—not a bad idea since he’s the God who raises the dead! And he did it, rescued us from certain doom. And he’ll do it again, rescuing us as many times as we need rescuing. You and your prayers are part of the rescue operation—I don’t want you in the dark about that either. I can see your faces even now, lifted in praise for God’s deliverance of us, a rescue in which your prayers played such a crucial part.". Two keys , if not for the challenge they faced , they would not have trust God totally and prayed a prayer of total trust in Him . When such trust is in place , the hour of His vengeance is set against your enemies .
9.fully persuaded - At times vengeance is delayed , because you are still yet to become fully persuaded of who He is . believing in Him is one level , becoming fully persuaded about Him is another . When you become fully persuaded , His vengeance is not far. The three hebrew boys made it known to King Nebuchadnezzer about this .They were all fully persuaded and God defended them . Daniel 3:18(Amp)" But even if He does not, let it be known to you, O king, that we are not going to serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up!”
10.Confidence - Bible says decree a thing and it shall become established . The more the adversity we go through remains , the bolder and confident we become in the Lord .And when we become fully matured , we can just decree the Lord's vengeance on His enemies and it willbe established .Job 22:28 (Amp)"You will also decide and decree a thing, and it will be established for you; And the light [of God’s favor] will shine upon your ways."


Bible Quote:

Say not thou ,I will recompense evil; but wait on the LORD , and he shall save thee" . Prov 20:22





prayer : Father avenge my enemies for me today in the name of Jesus , Amen.


Bless you .

2.You cannot finish well without loving your neighbor as yourself , is key to your finishing the race with joy . Why? He knows there will be many offences along the way .Eph 4:31-32(Amp)"31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor [perpetual animosity, resentment, strife, fault-finding] and slander be put away from you, along with every kind of malice [all spitefulness, verbal abuse, malevolence]. 32 Be kind and helpful to one another, tender-hearted [compassionate, understanding], forgiving one another [readily and freely], just as God in Christ also forgave [c]you."
3.Righteousness and holiness . A holy life is a wonderful life . A holy life is a life full of joy, peace and love . 2 Tim 1:9 (NIV)"He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time."
4.Rejoicing in the midst of your trial in hope and expectations .your expectations of a faithful God ,fuels your spirit with joy . Why? 1 Peter 4:19(NLT)" So if you are suffering in a manner that pleases God, keep on doing what is right, and trust your lives to the God who created you, for he will never fail you."
5.Be full of praises to God and thanksgiving always .It helps you to rise above your storms and helps you to see your God as mighty and terribly powerful . David said in the book of Psalms 69:30 (Amp)"I will praise the name of God with song And magnify Him with thanksgiving."
6.Never allow the enemy to deceive you . your sacrifices is not in vain , your labour of love for His name-sake is not in vain . There is a "sure" reward .When re armed with this living truth , you run the race to the end with joy . The truth here is what you "know" . 1 Cor 15:58(Amp)" Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the work of the Lord [always doing your best and doing more than is needed], being continually aware that your labor [even to the point of exhaustion] in the Lord is not futile nor wasted [it is never without purpose]."

LIFE LESSONS FROM THE BOOK OF LUKE 22:31-32 (Re-edited)



"Simon ,Simon (Peter) , Listen! Satan has asked excessively that [all of] you be given up to him [out of the power and keeping of God], that he might sift [all of ] you like grain.But I have prayed especially for you [Peter] ,that your [own] faith may not fail ; and when you yourself have turned again , strenghten and establish your brethren."





10 POWERFUL KEYS - WHEN THE ENEMY DESIRES TO SIFT YOU LIKE GRAIN




1.Rule number 1. There is power in persistence. If the enemy (Satan) can be this persistent in asking excessively, don't even attempt to stop asking (making your definite request known to God ) Phil 4:6 "Amp"Do not be anxious or worried about anything, but in everything [every circumstance and situation] by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, continue to make your [specific] requests known to God." until God gives you your heart desire . Even God encourages us in scripture not to relent in our asking Isaiah 62:6,7 (Amp) " you who [are His servants and by your prayers ] put the Lord in remembrance ] of His promise ], keep not silence. And give Him no rest until He establishes Jerusalem and makes her a praise in the earth".
2. Satan sought for permission to deal with Job in the book of job 1:12 , it was granted; Satan also sought for permission to deal with the disciples of Jesus , it was granted from the above scripture, but Peter escaped because Jesus prayed for Him.What was job's issue - fear , what about the disciples "lack of faith". Lesson - Never brag about what was given to you (your gift) freely by grace . something you never worked for .It might just be the bait your enemy has being waiting to use against you .Prov 16:5 (Amp)"Everyone who is proud and arrogant in heart is disgusting and exceedingly offensive to the Lord;Be assured he will not go unpunished."
3.The enemy is desperate to sift you like grain through his human agents. What is the key - 1 Peter 5:9 (Amp)" But resist him, be firm in your faith [against his attack—rooted, established, immovable], knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being experienced by your brothers and sisters throughout the world. [You do not suffer alone.]"
4. The enemy never gives up easily. What is the lesson here ? even after victory , there is a need for you to still remain steadfast in prayers and worship unto God . Even Jesus was provoked on the cross , just before His ultimate victory over Satan. Luke 23:39 (Amp)" One of the criminals who had been hanged [on a cross beside Him] kept hurling abuse at Him, saying, “Are You not the Christ? Save Yourself and us [from death]!”
5.God will reveal His divine secrets to His chosen ones. The other disciples were with Jesus , but they were not privileged to receive this divine information, but Peter was . why? The meek will always have access to divine information . In Luke 5 Peter let his boat to Jesus to preach and in Chapter 22 of the same scripture we saw how Jesus prayed for Him . What is the lesson here , those who have a heart for God and the things of God will always find favour in the midst of calamities .Prov 12:2 (Amp)"A good man will obtain favor from the Lord,But He will condemn a man who devises evil."
6. Peter was favoured above the rest. What is the lesson here - God rewards you according to your labour of love for His church and for Him. Rev 22:12 (Amp)"Behold, I (Jesus) am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, [a]to give to each one [b]according to the merit of his deeds (earthly works, faithfulness).".
7. The enemy knows all things and every power on earth and in heaven comes from one source and that one lives in us "wow" 1 John 4:4 and that one source says fear not I am with you. Isaiah 41:10 (NLT)"Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand." Now listen , never doubt even when you can't see light at the end of the tunnel. It just might be the Lord wants to use a new method to solve your case . Scripture says it in the book of Isaiah 43:19 (NIV)"See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland."
8.Jesus saw something in Peter, He did not see in the rest . So He chose Peter as the one to encourage the rest of the disciples .What did He see ? He saw leadership qualities in Peter . Your character will either promote you or demote you .Psalm 75:6,7 "For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south."But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another."
9.If God does not back you up we are like "grain" in the hand of the enemy . The truth is we all need God's backing . Is not about our gifts and talent that we have , but by His mercies that goes ahead of us to secure what we have . If not, we would lose it .Psalm 89:14"Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face."
10. I sum it up this way - Our job is to trust Him , His job is to do it His own way and in His own timing . Isaiah 60:22 (NLT)"The smallest family will become a thousand people, and the tiniest group will become a mighty nation. At the right time, I, the LORD, will make it happen."




Prayer : Father do not allow my faith to fail me as I journey in this race of Salvation in Jesus name , Amen.


You will finish well! God bless you .God bless you !!


 

LIFE LESSONS FROM THE BOOK OF 1 KINGS 18:43 (NLT) (Re-edited)





"Then he said to his servant, "Go and look out toward the sea." The servant went and looked, then returned to Elijah and said, "I didn't see anything." Seven times Elijah told him to go and look."



10 KEYS WHEN YOU CAN'T SEE "ANYTHING" COMING







1.When you can,t see anything coming, listen, is not the time to quit .Is a sign something good is coming and a time to key yourself in prayer , so God can show you what is ahead . Amen .David prayed to God for his eyes to be opened in psalm 119:18 "Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law."
2.your physical senses will never reveal anything coming to you, but the "facts" lol .Listen, cast away that evil imagination and pick up your spiritual antenna to receive what is coming . 2 cor 10 :5"Casting down
imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ."
3.You cannot see anything good coming , if you are proud . Why? your flesh will always resist what the Holy Spirit is trying to reveal to you from scriptures.1 Cor 2:14(Amp)" But the natural [unbelieving] man does not accept the things [the teachings and revelations] of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness [absurd and illogical] to him; and he is incapable of understanding them, because they are spiritually discerned and appreciated, [and he is unqualified to judge spiritual matters]."
4.When you are humble or when you humble yourself before God in prayer , his grace comes upon you to see what is coming. John 16:13b(Amp)"For He will not speak on His own initiative, but He will speak whatever He hears [from the Father—the message regarding the Son], and He will disclose to you what is to come [in the future]."
5.Elijah was persistent . Now this is the key - you quit at such time you lose . you remain and keep seeking His face for a way out . 1 cor 10:13(NLT)"The temptations in your life are no different from what
others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure."
6.When you can't see anything coming ,listen is time to hold on to the word(promise).Time to appreciate God with the word He has promised you , time to confess the word back to God and don't doubt . Remember what He said in scripture Isaiah 62:6b (Amp)"you who [are His servants and by your prayers] put the Lord in remembrance [of His promises], keep not silence."
7. Elijah heard a sound "word" from God and what did he do ? He keyed into it , without  doubting, not minding what anybody said or told him. Now here is what I want you to catch "know the God you serve" .Daniel 11:32"but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." when you "know Him" doubt , fears or discouragement will be far from your picture "expectations".
8.Elijah was fully persuaded about the sound he heard . If you re not fully persuaded , the enemy can push you to doubt the very word you have being told. Remember John the Baptist in Luke 7:19 (Amp)"John called two of his disciples and sent them to the Lord, saying, “Are You the [a]Expected One (the Messiah), or should we look for someone else?” John believed , but was not fully persuaded. Abraham believed and was "fully persuaded". lesson - become fully persuaded is key to your breakthrough . Roms 4:21(NLT)"being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised." He got it (Abraham). you will get yours in Jesus name , Amen.
9.Key - it happened the 7th time. There was no sign of rain the sixth time the servant went to check. you might think nothing is happening yet. it might just be your sixth time , one more hit is all you need for that "breakthrough" to come through in Jesus name , Amen . Key - Elijah prayed again. James 5:17 (NLT)"Then, when he prayed again, the sky sent down rain and the earth began to yield its crops.". If Elijah had not prayed again, the sky would not have sent forth its rain. Ask God again.
10.Elijah did not allow people to distract him ; when you know you are "breakthrough" pregnant , be careful of distractors . Keep your focus at such times and you can never miss it in Jesus name , amen. Phil 4:8. (Amp)"For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them].



PRAYER : Please Lord open my eyes that I may see that good thing coming to my life in Jesus name, Amen.


you are almost there!!
