TODAY’S MESSAGE:
What is warfare? Warfare comprises of War and Fare, the waging of war or armed conflict against an enemy. It is believed to be, the intensity, nature and the cost of fighting. WhiIe in Christianity, it is a contest struggle with our spiritual enemies. Let’s not forget that, spiritual enemies are not visible, they are spirit; they are Satan and his agents. The more reason while the scripture says: *”For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal.”* (2 Corinthians 10:4)
Meanwhile as Christians, we are soldiers in spiritual military life. We are to carry on continual wars against the enemies of God’s kingdom. Job 2:2 reveals thus: _”…And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.”_ Satan daily develop strategies against Christan soldiers and God’s kingdom.
Beloved, carnal weapons are useless in this warfare, but spiritual weapons such as: Salvation, Faith, Love, Righteousness, Peace, Truth, Word of God, Perseverance And Praying without ceasing. Do know that, all these put together, is a great arsenal in the hands of a believer against the enemy.
In conclusion, 1 Peter 5:8 pictured the nature of our arch-enemy, *”…be vigilant…your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.”* This means that Satan is always on the move, no waiting, no resting, busy looking for whom to destroy in totality. May he not see you to destroy in Jesus name. Amen.

God bless you.

*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

I will be firm and ready at all times. I will not be consumed in this warfare.

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Yesterday, we looked at principalities and powers, having been the spiritual beings that operates with satanic authority, against believers and how they were judged. While today, we will be looking at their activities, which is causing affliction through Infirmities to the elects.
Meanwhile, the whole of this series; Defeated Enemies, expose us to believers gains in the redemptive work on calvary. With those forces that our Lord and savior contended with for our sake’s, the divine mechanisms employed and not forgetting the various agonizing pains and mockery, Jesus endured for our salvation, taking our Infirmities upon His body and by whose wounds we are healed.
More so, our memory verse, assured us saying, *”He will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.”* Beloved, this is the pointer that, God will completely put an end to affliction and whatever that comes with it, in the lives of His people. Hold firm, this assurance in Christ Jesus, and you will be glad.
Finally, the scripture records in Exodus 3:17 saying: _”And I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction… unto a land flowing with milk and honey.”_ The good news is that, God did not only defeated afflictions and Infirmities, He also brings us to the land flowing with grace, blessings and divine riches, a perfect place of abode, a Heaven on Earth. May you experience this now and always in Jesus name. Amen.

God bless you.

“And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Yesterday, we considered sins and sorrow as two in one entity that steal our joy of salvation. We also saw salvation from sins and sorrow as the main mission of our Lord Jesus Christ. These enemies were defeated, as they were not exempted from divine judgement on Calvary.
Nonetheless, Principalities and powers are spiritual being, with satanic authority or evil that reign in the spiritual realm against spiritual and physical advancement of the beloved of God. It is good to note that powers and Principalities are also judged for yours and my sake at Calvary.
Meanwhile, our today’s text admonished us to remain dead to sins, after our trespasses are forgiven. For all the handwriting of ordinances from principalities and powers, that was against us, which was contrary to us, Jesus took them out of the way. Dear friend, do know that, powers and principalities are acquitted through our disobedience to God’s commandments.
In conclusion beloved in Christ Jesus, powers and principalities were not only defeated by Jesus for your sake, they were openly revealed and rebuked. Awareness of their operations with authority to subdue them is made available for the believers. “In Jesus name, every knee shall bow and every tongue confess Him to be the Lord.” Hallelujah! Amen.

God bless you.
Till He returns or call you home, do remain in the power of His love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
I will tread upon snakes and scorpion, by no means, will I be hurt.

Almighty Father, the Creator of Heaven and Earth. Please Lord, give me the grace to remain in You and never to loose my place and authority in Christ Jesus in Jesus name. Amen.

THEME:
The Defeated Enemies: Sins And Sorrows.

MEMORY VERSE:
“Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.”
Isaiah 53:4.

TODAY’S TEXT:
John 16:20
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Yesterday, we considered death as one of the enemies defeated, through the sacrifice on the cross of Calvary. The agony of the physical death and pang of eternal condemnation or spiritual death, is out of the way, for as many that cling to the salvation won for them on the cross of Calvary.
Nevertheless, our today’s text thus remind us that, At a time, due to life’s trials and temptation, sorrow may come with weeping and Lamentations. Let’s not forget also that, disobedience to God can lead to sorrow too. As long as you repent and you don’t lose focus again, the end will be full of joy.
Furthermore, in fulfillment of the prophecy that heralded His birth, *”…and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.”* (Matthew 1:21.) Jesus took our sins and nailed it on the cross, He saved us from the power of sin and sorrow. And reconciled us with the Father in heaven. A mission fulfilled through God’s love, in order eradicate sins and sorrows in believers life.
In conclusion, Proverbs 10:22 says; _”The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.”_ When God decides to release His blessings on His people, it is always perfect and everlasting. It is without pain or sorrow attach to it. When He blesses His children, an end surely come to weeping and Lamentation.

God bless you.
Till He returns or call you home, do remain in the power of His love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
I shall not be defeated by sins and sorrows in life. For, I am a Victor in Christ Jesus.

PRAYER POINT:
Merciful Father, in your mercy and love, uphold me not to fall into the power of sin. And please Lord, turn all my sorrows to joy and let me laugh over my enemies in Jesus name. Amen

Yours in Christ,

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
As Christians, many are the battles of life that we face on daily basis, many of which are mimics or replay of previous battles, won for us by our Commandant; Jesus Christ. Or a reflex of the enemies reprisal, in order to recapture the lost ground.
Meanwhile, our today’s text expressly declared that, time is coming when soldiers of Christ, will transcend to immortality, in order to continue living in eternity. May you and I not miss this opportunity in Jesus name. Amen.
Furthermore, through our Lord and savior; Jesus Christ, as Christians we rejoice in the face of physical death, knowing full well that, it is a gateway to our eternal inheritance. And in Christ Jesus, we defeated death’s agony and Victoriously entered into our forever joy and rewards in heaven. Beloved, Jesus died for us, that we may not die, the second death after leaving the earth.
