EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (31)



October 31 puts an outright end to unbelief and doubts in your life. Have faith in God and Christ Jesus and all shall be perfectly well to His glory!

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – TITUS
3:5 “Not by works of righteousness, which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,”

It is only by the Holy Spirit, we have been made righteous, justified, sanctified and saved

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (30)



October 30, stresses our insistent walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh. Let the Spirit of God continue keep us in His arms of fellowship in Jesus Name...

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – TIMOTHY
3:16 “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the Gentiles. Believers in the world, received up in glory.”
The Lord Himself was justified in the Spirit, what about you?

1 Timothy 4:1 “Now the Spirit
expressly says that in the latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons,”

The verse says, “Now the Spirit expressly says…” this was in the now then, it is an on-going statement. What was predicted by the Holy Spirit, I pray you will never be part of those departing from the truth!

2 Timothy 1:14 “That good things was committed to you, keep by the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.”
Enabling commitment to obey or keep the gospel committed to us is only possible by the Holy Spirit!

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (29)



October 29 announces the restoration of God's dignity, genuineness and integrity; stay in Him to maintain all in Jesus Mighty Name...

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – THESSALONIANS
1:5 “For the gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit and much assurance …”
The evidence of the true gospel is in the assurance of the power of the Holy Spirit.

1 Thess. 4:8 “Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but God who has also  given us His Holy Spirit.”
Rejecting God is opposition with His Spirit. God is Spirit. His worshippers must worship Him in Spirit and truth. (Jn. 4:24).

1 Thess. 5:19 “DO NOT QUENCH THE SPIRIT”
Keep the flame or fire of the Holy Spirit ablaze all the time, do not extinguish Him. I pray that believers know what this means!

2 Thess. 2:13 “ But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.”
Our sanctification election, salvation and faith in Christ are all by the Holy Spirit.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (28)


October 28 - A rewarding day, restoring every lost Divine opportunity, dignity, vision, dream etc... Allow the Holy Spirit to engage your own spirit for this answered prayer in Jesus Name...

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – COLOSSIANS
1:8 “Who also declared to us your love in the Spirit.”
Love in the Spirit is the genuine one. You know love is one of the fruit of the Spirit. Bear this fruit in the Spirit always!

Thursday 26 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (27)



October 27 - Join me in this prayer; "Oh Lord, Let Your Spirit enable me carry out Your Kingdom assignments filled with Love and Faith in Jesus Name... "

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – PHILIPPIANS
1:19 “For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.”

There is deliverance through prayer, but without the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ it is impossible!

Philippians 2:1 “Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy…”

Both consolation, comfort of love, affection and mercy are bound together in the fellowship of the Holy Spirit. Nothing works so effectively without the Holy Spirit!

Let us be very mindful of Him in every circumstances we will have no cause to be ashamed (1:20).

Wednesday 25 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (26)



October 26 declares, "Let the Holy Spirit be the Teacher and not someone else in Jesus Mighty Name..."

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – EPHESIANS
1:13 “ In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise.”
Our salvation in Christ and everything about our Christian faith are incomplete without the seal of the Holy Ghost.

Ephesians 2:18 “For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.”
Jesus is the way the truth and life, no one goes to the Father except by Him, however, “through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.” This circle becomes complete only by the Holy Spirit.
Ephesians 2:22  “In whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.”
It is only by the Holy Spirit that our building as the dwelling place of God can stand.

Ephesians 3:5  “Which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it has been revealed by the Spirit to His holy apostles and prophets.”
Mysteries of God can not be known or understood without the Holy Spirit. The deeper one is driven into the things of the Spirit, God will easily be revealed.

Ephesians 3:16  “That He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man.”
Riches accompanied with divine glory and strength with might, and Gods power, they are all obtained by the Holy Spirit within us.

Ephesians 4:3-4 “Endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bound of peace. There is one body and one Spirit just as you were called in one hope of your calling.”
It is by the Holy Spirit that believers can truly remain united. The division in the body of Christ, today are consequent to self-seeking dealing, the Holy Spirit has been totally forsaken! We must return to Him unreservedly in Spirit in adherence to the above verse.

Ephesians 4:30 “And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.”
We have been sealed by the Holy Spirit for the day of redemption; we should always please Him to reach that day without query.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (25)




25 October calls for renewed surrender for God's service, get closer to Christ than before!

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – GALATIANS
3:2 “This only I want to learn from you: did you receive the Holy Spirit by the works of the law or by the hearing of faith?”

Yes the Holy Spirit is always receive by the faith paying close attention to the word, produces the faith.

Galatians 3:3 “Are you so foolish? Having began in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect in the flesh?”

It is damn foolishness to know the works of the Holy Spirit and turn to the flesh for perfection. If genuine achievement is not obtained by the Holy Spirit, just forget it!

Monday 23 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (24)


October 24 - Place a serious demand by faith for a ceaseless infilling of the Holy Spirit to eliminate all human influences that interfere with the operations of heaven in your life in Jesus Name...

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – CORINTHIANS
2:4 “And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power.”

Oh, what humility to rely and depend solely on the Holy Spirit and power demonstration in ministry. May God help us by the Holy Spirit to fully imitate Paul here! Amen.

1 Corinthians 2:10 “But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yet the deep things of God.”

The secret things that are only God's prerogative knowledge and power can be made known to us by the Holy Spirit. See why the necessity to return to Him in all things?

1Corinthians2:11-13     “For what man knows the spirit of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so, no one knows the things of God except the spirit of God.”

(So if the ever abiding presence of the Holy Spirit indwells the believer, he will be acquainted with the things of God, spiritual things).

“Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.(See comments on 2:10 above).

“These things we also speak not in words which man's wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with the spiritual.”

The Holy Spirit is God's great teacher of all things to us (John 14:26). Because we are Gods spiritual adopted children, nothing spiritual should be strange to us.

May our commitment to the Holy Spirits sensitivity and friendship increase, so that we will be more conversant with Him in all things. Amen and Amen!

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (23)


October 23, 2017: Read Rom 8
Every sin in your life the devil is using to keep you in bondage; be totally loosed in Jesus Mighty Name...

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – ROMANS
5:5 “Now, hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.”
The love of God by the Holy Ghost, finds the right place in our hearts, without the Holy Spirit, there is no genuine love!
Romans 8:2 “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.”

It is only the Holy Spirit that the power of sin and death is made null and void in our lives. Hallelujah!

Romans 8:4 “That the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.”

Romans 8:5 “ For those who walk in the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to Spirit, the things of the Spirit.”

Romans 8:9-11 “But you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if any one does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.”

The ever abiding Spirit led life is an awesome embodiment of irrevocable power packed fulfillment. Let us never compromise our stand for this glorious life style in Jesus name. Amen!

Romans 8:13-16 “For if you live according to the flesh you will die! But if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.” “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God.”

(There are so much rooms and opportunities for whosoever wants to be called Gods child. Avail yourself to the Spirit-led life to qualify for the ample divine opportunity).

“For you did not receive the Spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba Father.” The Spirit Himself bear witness with our spirit that we are children of God.”
Romans 8:23 “Now only that, but we also who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.”

There is no end to desire of the Holy Spirits out pour; an experience once attained must be needed perpetually.

Sunday 22 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (22)



22nd Oct Marks the beginning of a rededication for God to have absolute access into us by His Spirit's power for the advancement of His Kingdom!

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – ACTS
1:2 “Until the day in which He was taken up to after He through the Holy Spirit had given commandments to the apostle whom He had chosen.”

Jesus instructed the apostles through the Holy Spirit. As believers, whenever we speak, it should be the same Spirit of God!
Acts 1:5  “For John truly baptize with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”
This is the confirmation of what gospel writers said. It’s shocking when some people in the faith do not take these words of Jesus serious. This is a Spiritual necessity which if ignored makes a tragedy of one’s faith in Christ Jesus.

Acts 1:8  “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witness unto me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
Continue emphasis on obtaining power by the Holy Spirit, is simply standing firm on the truth. It is by this that ministry becomes genuine and knows no bounds.

This “ends-of-the earth” journey defies the acquisition of all travelling documents. Let us get serious about the Holy Spirit and the transport ends up easy. We are to witness unto Christ.

The essence is to tell the world the truth and nothing but the truth. This must require evidence or proofs of the ministry of Christ in us.

Remember Christ is the baptizer, and giver of the Holy Spirit and His power. Let us learn to allow Him proof and substantiate His works and their greater works in us! (Jn. 14:12).

Saturday 21 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (21)



This 21st Oct, triple increase pursues you today and beyond in Jesus Name...

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – JOHN
1:32 “And John bore witness, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove and He remained upon Him.” (Mathew 3:16).
John 1:33 “…upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit (Mathew 3:11).
John 3:5 “Jesus answered, most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God."

John 3:6 “That which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit.”
John 3:8 “The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes, so is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

The three verses above are the Born Again references connected with the Holy Spirit. It is the prerequisite for inheriting the kingdom of heaven.

I do not doubt that many believers need to sincerely pass through the Holy Ghost rebirth or regeneration to truly obtain Christian faith assurance and confidence as the kingdom citizens. This is one of the reasons that informed the publication of this book.
If your challenge is spiritual deficiency, do not stop reading this book, because it is the hand book for the work of God.

John 3:34  “For He whom God has sent, speak the words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.”

It is truly, very astonishing work for men to represent God Almighty in speech. However, His immeasurable gift of the Holy Spirit gets the job effectively done. “Is the Spirit of the Lord restricted?” (Micah 2:7).

Friday 20 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (20)



The Holy Spirit in the Bible – LUKE
1:15 “For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink. He will also be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother’s womb.”

The prediction of John the Baptist by the angel of the Lord to Zacharias (verses 13-16); that John “will be great in the sight of the Lord” is not always noted always noted. Every Spirit filled and anointed believer, whatever people’s consideration about him, is not really the matter; he is great in the sight of God. The restriction placed on the life-style of John, should also be strictly observed by all Gods stewards or else the Spirit led ministry will suffer shipwreck! May God forbid it, in Jesus' name. Amen.

Luke 1:35 “And the angel answered and said to her, the Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the highest will over shadow you; therefore also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God.”

The Holy Spirit comes with power from on high. When He overshadows or brood upon a person, and situation, there must be undisputable and glorious outcome. Obviously the coming of Jesus by the Holy Spirit was the most glorious and amazing event ever in history!

Luke 1:41 “And it happened when Elizabeth heard the greetings of Mary, that babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.”

The child in Mary’s womb was conceived by the Holy Spirit; Mary was actually carrying the Holy Spirit within her. Amazingly, Mary’s contact with Elizabeth by means of greeting only, the baby in her responded by the same Spirit and she was filled with the Holy Spirit. I believed we can as well impact and influence our children even before they were born and parents be filled with the Holy Spirit, if only we are conscious of His ever abiding presence in our lives. Simple communication in the Holy Spirit can make others be filled wit, if only we are conscious of His ever abiding presence in our lives. Simple communication in the Holy Spirit can make others be filled with the same Spirit.

Luke 1:67 “Now his father Zachariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied …”

The Spirit of God in the child Jesus did not only touch the mother of John, but also the father, Zacharias. Such Holy Ghost coordination was necessary for the ministries of John and Jesus. They had a collaborative ministry which must be established and enhance by the Holy Spirit (3:3-6). I believe we need this kind of spiritual relationship among one another for our ministries to be successful.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (19)



Blessed October 19, the Holy Spirit is eagerly waiting to refresh your spirit being as you desire to fellowship with Him today...

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – MARK
Most of the account of the gospel writers on the Holy Spirit bears the same message. It will not be necessary to comment on verses with such similarity. However the reader is advised to read through the verses without being bored, make it an interesting exercise!

Mark1:8 “I indeed baptize you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.” (Mathew 3:11).

Mark 1:10 “And immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove”

Mark 1:12 “Immediately the Spirit drove Him into the wilderness.” (Mathew3:16 and 14).

Mark 3:29 “but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit:  never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation” (Mathew 12:28-32).

Mark 12:36 “For David himself said by the Holy Spirit: 'the Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right hand, till I make your enemies your footstool.” (Mathew 22:43).

Mark 13:11 “But when they arrest you and deliver you up, do not worry before hand, or premeditate what you will speak. But whatever is given you in that hour, speak that, for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.” (Mathew 10:20)


Wednesday 18 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (18)



Today Oct 18, we are in the New Testament. Keep digging deeper into God's Originality in the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – MATHEW
 1:18, 20 “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows:
After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, and before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.(vs. 18).

Joseph did not know this, so “was minded to put her away secretly”(vs.19). “But while he thought about these things, behold, and angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, and saying, '….Do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.”

You see? The eternal purpose of God to send into the world a Savior was impossible without the Holy Spirit. Out of nothing the Holy Spirit brings forth the Super Character named Jesus.

There is no better way of starting the New Testament good news of the Holy Spirit than this. This forms the strongest eagle wings that will transport us into the rest of the New Testament. Let us carry on....

Tuesday 17 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (17)



17/10/17 is remarkable! Give good time to Read this short post. Holy Spirit's revival on the way...

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – ZECHARIAH
 4:6 “…This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: not by might nor by power but by my Spirit, says the Lord.”

Let me simply comment here: nothing ever takes the place of the Holy Spirit; in other words there is no substitute for Him!

Zechariah 12:10 “And I will pour on the house of David, and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication, then they will look on me whom they pierced….”

This happens to be the last verse on the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament. The function of the Holy Spirit here is that of causing Gods people to acknowledge the one they hated to the point of death.

People’s rejection of the truth never stops His Spirit's promptings and probe into their lives, until some day the wind of change becomes inevitable.

Lord, help us by your ever abiding Spirit to win souls and make disciples of all nations in the Name of Jesus. Amen.


Monday 16 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (16)




More than a daily devotional, but a constant intimacy with God Almighty as a Spirit!

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – HAGGAI
2:5 “According to the word that I covenanted with you when you come out of Egypt, so my Spirit remains among you; do not fear.”

To be frank, when I come across a scripture like this one, I admit my fallacious stand point about the Holy Spirit!

Lets just pray that His mercy endures forever, and let Him guide us into all truth in Jesus' name. Amen.

You see, that distant Egypt covenant, still makes the ever abiding presence of the Holy Spirit relevant in our time. Did I hear you say, “What about the Blood and new covenant in Christ?” Yes, it is a greater enforcement and fulfillment.

Let us keep drinking from His non-stop fountain, so that “out of our belly (hearth) shall flow rivers of living water” (Jn. 7:39).

Let me not forget, with the Holy Spirit ever increasing intimacy, FEAR IS RULED out of our lives! Amen!

Haggai's good news prophesy is not yet over; the Holy Spirit's ever abiding presence will ensure His unprecedented end-time shaking that must release Gods power ever known! (Verses. 4-9).

Saturday 14 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (15)




The Holy Spirit in the Bible – MICAH
Micah 2:7 “You who are named the house of Jacob: Is the Spirit of the Lord restricted? Are these His doings? Do not my words do good to him who walk uprightly?”

A million dollar question and a resounding one of the millennium! “Is the spirit of the Lord restricted?” Never! He remains very actively relevant to those who are ready to be committed to His relentless friendship.

Micah 3:8 “But truly I am full of power by the Spirit of the Lord, and of justice and might, to declare to Jacob his transgression and to Israel.
One is reminded the word of Jesus “but you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you …” (Acts 1:8).

What follows is the pronouncement and witness about the way, truth and life. The abominable atrocities among believers (churches) and society today must be pronounced, arrested and sentenced to perpetual silence in Jesus' name. Amen.

Let’s give thanks to God for prophet MICAH, whose categorical admiration of the Holy Spirit and is irreversible truth which could be altered! Let us follow His footstep always in Jesus' name. Amen.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (14)







On this 14th day of October, let the mighty pouring of the Holy Spirit flow over you for God's Government enforcement in your life, family, ministry and all endeavors of life in Jesus' Name... 

14
The Holy Spirit in the Bible – JOEL

2:28-29 “And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions. And also on My men servants on My maidservants I will pour out my Spirit in those days.”

The promise of the Holy Spirit’s out pour is already fulfilled. We are enjoying His flowing gifts, diversities of activities, ministry gifts, fruit bearing and inexhaustible blessings. But ignorance and rebellion have deprived many from these kingdom rights (1Cor 12). My mustard seed faith answered prayer is that as you read these verses, you will be miraculously exempted from such depravity in Jesus Name. Amen!

Thursday 12 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (13)


Esteem Readers, You are God's Special Eternal Project, because your worth and integrity begins to function on earth, I find it obligatory to stand in the gab everyday with you. No matter the battle with the world of darkness against you, the Spirit of God is our sure victory. (click on the image to read the full text of what the Spirit is saying...)   

The Holy Spirit in the Bible
EZEKIEL
Ezekiel 2:2 “Then the Spirit entered me when He spoke to me and set me upon my feet and I heard Him who spoke to me.”
You can know the entrance of the Spirit into you; you can hear Him speak to you; and you can know what He does with you “set me on my feet.” All these were necessary to Ezekiel for the work God had assigned him to do (Read verses 3-10).
Ezekiel 3:12 “The Spirit lifted me up, and I hear behind me a great thunderous voice: Blessed is the glory of the Lord from His place.”
You can know the lifting up of the Spirit, hear the frightening sound of His voice He declares the blessing of His glory.
Ezekiel 3:14 “So the Spirit lifted me up and took me away and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; but the hand of the Lord was strong upon me.”
The Holy Ghost lifted Ezekiel up, took him away from where he was to a destination (v 15).
You may feel the tension and anxiety of the human spirit within, but as long as the strong hand of the Lord remains on you, your mission must be accomplished. Amen!
Ezekiel 3:24 “Then the Spirit entered me and set me on my feet, and spoke to me and said to me: ‘Go, shut yourself inside your home’”.
Ezekiel repeats the process of the dealing of the Spirit with him, but here there is an additional commitment assigned for him to do; to shut himself in the house; this could be the same Holy Spirit message for you now, you might have been roaming and lingering about in despair and hopelessness. Do it now, do not procrastinate any longer. Sure He is talking to you right now!
Ezekiel 8:3 “…and the Spirit lifted me up between earth and heaven, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem…”
Another experience of a practical lifting up, Ezekiel was suspended between earth and heaven and carried to Jerusalem. As stewards in the vineyard, we must avail ourselves and desire divine transport to our designated duty posts.
Ezekiel 11:1 “Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the East gate of the Lord’s house …And there at the door of the gate were twenty five men…”
Here the Holy Ghost took Ezekiel to a particular entrance of the house of the Lord and showed him some people (vs. 2). As we remain sensitively faithful to the leading of the Holy Spirit, wickedness must surely be exposed in the church today in the name of Jesus. Amen!
Ezekiel 11:5 “Then the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and said to me, Speak! Thus you have said, Oh house of Israel; for I know the things that come into your mind.”
Thank God for His Spirit's gift of discerning and exposing hidden hearts intentions (vs. 6-7)  (see comment on 11:1).
Ezekiel 11:24 “Then the Spirit of the Lord took me up and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to those in captivity…”
The Holy Spirit is the power-transporter. With him there should be no struggles and stress for passport and visa acquisitions. Praise the Lord, He is taking me to the nations to win souls and make disciples in Jesus' Name. Amen!
Ezekiel 36:27 “I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in my statues, and you will keep My judgments and do them.
What a covenant keeping God! He fulfils His word only by His Spirit; He gives a new heart and puts a new Spirit (vs26). He is sufficiently gracious to take our place in the contract to ensure our fulfillment and satisfaction. Amen!
Ezekiel 37:1 “The hand of the Lord came upon me and brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones.”
Ezekiel might have  felt the laying of the hand of the Lord and realized His supernatural transport in the Spirit to one of his most challenged mission location; the valley of dry bones! God's consecrated and sanctified instrument must be ever ready to be sent to most dreaded and impossible mission fields. He knows and you know too, that He is the giver of life in abundance (Jn. 10:10) and nothing is impossible with Him. By His mighty Spirit's move there is no no-go area for us in Jesus Name. Amen!
Ezekiel 37:14 “I will put My Spirit in you, and you shall live,  and I will place you in your own land. Then you shall know that I, the Lord, have spoken it and performed it, says the Lord.”
This is similar to Gods pronouncement in Ezekiel 36:27. As we continue to remain conscious of His forever abiding Spirit’s presence, we shall obviously remain alive and possess our Kingdom citizenship inheritance.
Ezekiel 39:29 “And I will not hide My face from them any more for I shall have poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel, says the Lord.”
What a thrilling promise! Of course His Spirit has been out poured on us. And what a divine privilege of working in His result oriented glorious confinements!
Ezekiel 43:5 “The Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of the Lord filled the temple.”
Hallelujah! The Spirit’s lifting ushers into divine inner chambers, yes, into the deep things of God where His inevitable glory fully occupies our entirety! This scenario maintains a fulfilled ministry. Amen (Read verses 5-7).




EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (12)


The Holy Spirit in the Bible – ISAIAH
Isaiah 11:2 “The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him (the Messiah), the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord.”
Isaiah’s prophesy about the Holy Spirit was about Christ the King. Its fulfillment can never be disputed in the Spirit-filled believers!
Isaiah 30:1 “Woe to the rebellious children, …who take counsel, but not of me; and who devise plans, but not of my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin.”
Every plan made and executed without the Spirit’s initial involvement stands to be regretted. Let us not keep Him out of our plans in life! We must always remember to ask, ‘What is the Lord saying?' before we embark on a project!
Isaiah 32:15 “Until the Spirit is poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field. And the fruitful field is counted as a forest.”
What supernatural undertaking by the Holy Spirit. When we seem to run out of hope in every regard once the Spirit of God comes upon us, the situation must change for good, until we “show His strength to this generation and His power to everyone that is to come.” (Ps. 71:18).
Isaiah 34:16 “Search from the book of the Lord and read…. For my mouth has commanded it, and His Spirit has gathered them.”
Actually, from all indication, the Holy Spirit is the chief facilitator for divine pronouncements and performances. It is by the Holy Spirit’s prompting that the one is able to hear the Lord’s word which produces the expected results. The same sequence took place at creation in (Gen.1:2, 3). Lets us follow the same pattern and approach every day.
Isaiah 40:13 “Who has directed the Spirit of the Lord or as His counselor has taught Him?”
We must remain subject to Him, and not the other way round. But this is what has caused a major setback in the church today. (Read 30:1 again please).
Isaiah 42:1 “Behold! My servant whom I uphold, I elect one in whom my soul delights! I have put my Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the Gentiles.”

Here is another Messianic prophecy by Isaiah. Of course, the Lord Jesus has fulfilled His role of a Savior, King and Priest for our sake. In fact He handed over His earned victory to us in order for us to enforce the kingdom citizenship rights upon the earth. It is only by the Spirit’s power that we ought to achieve it!

Wednesday 11 October 2017

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (11)





Friends, today's admonition goes with this powerful prayer given by the Spirit of the Lord this day 11/10/17; "I command all contrary and unclean spirits to be silent and inactive concerning your life, ministry, family, business, health etc in the Great Name of Jesus Christ..."

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – PSALMS
PSALMS 51:11 “Do not cast me away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me…”
Psalms 51:12 “Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me by your generous Spirit.”
David’s prayer about the indwelling Spirit in these verses had been fulfilled for the present day believer by the promises of Christ in John 14:16; that the Spirit would “abide with you forever.” We should continue to enjoy His indwelling presence and His upholding, as we resist every temptation to grieve and or quench Him. Let us maintain the prayer; “The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God and the communion of the Holy Spirit abide with us now and evermore. Amen.”
Psalms 104:30 “You send forth your Spirit, they are created; and you renew the face of the earth.”
The Holy Spirit of creation, and still in the same operation. Sticking to Him renews everything about us constantly.
Psalms 139:7 “Where can I go from your Spirit? Or where can I flee from your presence?”
David was not wondering about the Holy Spirit he knew that God Himself was everywhere at the same time. These verses 7-12 take care of a wandering soul who is not acquainted with the Spirit’s companionship everywhere he goes. Read these verses 7-12 over and over until the Spirit’s knowledge is fully active in your lives. Amen!
Psalms 143:10 “Teach me to do your will, for you are my God: your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.”
How can David ever forget about the goodness of the Spirit of the Lord who was upon him since the day he was anointed by Prophet Samuel. The life of David to some extend exhibited this understanding. He loved the enemy of his soul even when he had the opportunity to retaliate. (1Sam. 16:13; 26:7-9). We have never been deprived of God’s goodness by His Spirit; we should reciprocate such great favor by allowing Him to undertake the kingdom business through our lives of submission to Him always.
The five verses about the Holy Spirit in the book of psalms are directed to the believer’s spiritual ambition to work with Him all the time. It’s the best thing to do!

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT - 10





Good News to friends, partners, associates and all Christians who would like to follow my publication “Everyday With the Holy Spirit” on a daily basis for their Spiritual growth should do so on my neworientation1.blogspot.com. This is commencing today 10th Oct, ’17 with the book of Job which is the 10th lesson. Happy Reading and Bountiful Spiritual Uplifting on Jesus’ Name!  
LESSON 10
The Holy Spirit in the Bible – JOB

Job 26:13 “By the Spirit He adorned the heavens; His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.”
This confirms that the origin of creation was only possible by the Holy Spirit. The devil was overthrown and totally out-smarted when God finally sent His begotten Son to save humanity and restore us to our original position of dominion over His creation. The Spirit of God is our only source of strength and renewal.
Job 33:4 “The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.” (Note my comment above 26:13).
Our earthly and eternal survival is guaranteed by the Holy Spirit. One’s life can choke   into perpetual silence without Him. Let’s remain alive in Him! Amen.

THE WORD POWER




Trusting God Almighty who is Himself the Word consistently provides unfailing results on a daily basis; a day at a time!

​"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." (Jn 1:1)

We can become an embodiment of God Almighty in Christ as the Word. Everything God Almighty can occupy all we are when deliberate effort is made to save the Word within us!

My work assigned by God Almighty is to create much awareness beyond the ordinary in thousands of lives; releasing them from obscurity to Reality on earth and eternally.

My booklets Everyday with the Holy Spirit, The Purpose of Life, and other Word transforming tracts and articles can be of great impact. Get in touch with us for further encouragement. Thanks and blessings in Jesus Name.
