Father GOD, make me fruitful in everything I do this month. I pray and receive all round fruitfulness with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper - Psalm 1:3
Word for the day:
It is the will of God for you to be fruitful in every area of your life. You are a member of the body of Christ and God wants you to prosper. See John Chapter 15. Every believer is a part and parcel of the body of Christ. Our Lord Jesus Christ is the true vine. God, the Father is the vine-dresser and we are the branches. As a branch of the vine, you can't be fruitful without Jesus. So you got to abide in him always. What does it mean to abide in the Lord? To love him, obey and keep his commandments. When you do that, then you can ask for anything you desire and it would be given to you. As you bear fruit, Father God prunes you so you can bear more fruit. Has God been chastening you? Rejoice, for God only chastens those he loves. He chastens you so you could be more fruitful. So whenever God chastens you, make sure you purge your heart. Each time you purge your heart, you give God the freedom to prune you. The result can only be fruitfulness and more fruitfulness. Hallelujah!
This season, as you abide in Christ, you shall be fruitful in all you do in Jesus name. You shall prosper in every area of your endeavors and all shall be well. If you believe, shout - Hallelujah! Glory be to God!!
Daily Cry - November 4, 2011
Father GOD, increase your anointing upon my life. Release more of your shekinah glory upon my life. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
But you shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come on you: and you shall be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and to the uttermost part of the earth - Acts 1:8
Word for the day:
You need the anointing of God. There are some things you can't do on your own. You need the help of God. The anointing is the power of God or the divine enablement that helps you do the assignment God has given to you. The disciples of Christ had to wait on God for the anointing before they launched their ministry. They waited for the anointing and the anointing sure did fall on them. They became bold and preached the gospel without fear. The anointing would definitely help you. It would help you fulfill your calling. Business men and women need the anointing. Students need the anointing. Professionals need the anointing. Irrespective of what you do, you need the anointing. Thirst for it. Ask and seek God for more of his anointing and he would surely fill you with this ever powerful yoke destroying, burden removing power.
You also need the glory of God. The glory is the presence of God. You need his presence every day. Always desire to be in God's presence. You can secure his presence by maintaining an atmosphere of praise and thanksgiving. God dwells in the praises of his people. So praise God at all times. Avoid complaining and murmuring. Rather rejoice and celebrate God and He would surely be with you. The world is so wicked and full of darkness. You need God's covering. You need his presence. Attract his presence and maintain your relationship with God. It shall be well with you in Jesus name.
Daily Cry - November 5, 2011
Father GOD, I am a member of your body. Distinguish me and make me great and outstanding in my area of calling. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verses of the day:
The hand of the diligent will rule while the slothful will be put to forced labor
... - Proverbs 12:24
So it depends not upon man's will or exertion but upon God's mercy - Romans 9:16
Word for the day:
It is the will of God for you to be outstanding. He wants you to be the head and not the tail. He wants you to be on top all the time. Beloved, our God is an excellent God. It is his nature. So you got to be excellent too. You have to be the best. Strive to be the best in the area of your calling. Be the best you can be at work, at school, at home, at church etc. Wherever you find yourself, be the best. God has commanded you to be fruitful, to have dominion, to subdue, to multiply and to replenish. It is a command that you must obey if you desire to live a good life on Planet earth. God has given you the freedom to choose. Blessing or curse? If you obey, the blessing would be yours but if you disobey you will struggle as a result of the curse on the fallen man.
Beloved, God has spoken and his good words are the blessings. Covet the blessing and prosper. It is the blessing that makes you outstanding and extraordinary in your area of calling. As you obey God, he will distinguish you and make you outstanding in Jesus name.
It is not of him that wills, nor of him that runs, but of God that shows mercy (Romans 9:16). Very true but you must will and run. God must see you do something. You must put in your own effort before God puts his own. You must be diligent. The hand of the diligent bears rule (Proverbs 12:24a). The diligent man shall stand amongst kings. So do your own part. Do more than that which is required. Put in the extraordinary effort that produces extraordinary results and God would bless the works of your hands and give you that extraordinary success. Remember, if you sow bountifully, you will reap bountifully. Our God is a faithful God.

Father GOD, I thank you for the blessings you have given me but I believe you have more for me. I ask that you give me a harvest far beyond my expectations. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
Now to him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us
- Ephesians 3:20
Word for the day:
Never you underestimate God. God is so awesome. He is bigger than you think. Permit me to boast a little about God. He created the universe and everything in it. The earth we live on is just one of the nine planets in one of the billions of galaxies in the universe. Indeed our God is a big God. He created everything visible and invisible. He created all the billions of human beings that are presently alive and all the uncountable zillions of souls that have crossed to eternity. He created all the uncountable number of stars and angels that exist. God created all. Indeed our God is awesome. He created all things within six days and on the seventh day he rested. He upholds all things by the word of his power. Indeed this our God is unfathomable. He is bigger than you think. He is bigger than the biggest, mightier than the mightiest, Higher than the highest and wiser than the wisest. There is nobody like him and no one can be like him. He can do for you what nobody else can do for you. He can give you a harvest of blessings that far surpasses your expectations. He is GOD.
Ephesians 3:20 reveals to us how great the power of God is. He can do exceedingly abundantly above all we can ever ask or think. Beloved, God can do the impossible. He can turn impossible situations around. His supernatural power can do all things for you. He has given you all things that pertain to life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3) and has blessed you with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places (Ephesians 1:3). This season, believe God for an extraordinary harvest. He can do it and would do it in Jesus name. If you believe, shout - Hallelujah! Jesus is Lord!!

Father GOD, purge my heart that I may produce more good works unto the glory of your name. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work - 2 Corinthians 9:8
Word for the day:
God created you to do good works. You were formed and shaped to do what God created you to do. Beloved, let your light shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify God. Purge your heart. As you do so, God would be pruning your heart so you can bear forth fruit. Don't be afraid. God's grace is available for you to tap into. As you tap into his grace, may you have more than what you need and may he make you a blessing unto others unto the glory of Christ. Beloved, it shall be well with you in Jesus name. If you believe, shout - Hallelujah!
Daily Cry - November 8, 2011
Father GOD, crown me with grace and honor. Instead of shame, let me have glory and double honor. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
Instead of their shame my people will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace they will rejoice in their inheritance; and so they will inherit a double portion in their land, and everlasting joy will be theirs - Isaiah 61:7
Word for the day:
God is still in the business of working miracles. He is the lifter and the promoter of men. Promotion doesnt come from the east, west or south. It comes from the Lord. If you desire promotion, you must look unto God. Let him be the lifter of your head. He lifted Joseph from the dungeon to the palace and lifted David from the dunghill to the palace. He can do the same for you. He has done it before and can do it again. Instead of shame, you will receive glory and honour in Jesus name. You will receive a double portion of honour and your joy shall know no bounds in Jesus name. Beloved, it shall be well with you in Jesus name. If you believe, shout - Hallelujah!
Daily Cry - November 9, 2011
Father GOD, open my eyes and let me see the great and mighty things you have prepared for me. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
... Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love him.
But God has revealed them to us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God - 1 Corinthians 2:9-10
Word for the day:
Beloved, God has prepared great and mighty things for you. You got to know what God has called yours so that you can lay hold of them. They are yours but you got to discover them and claim them by faith. God has given you an open invitation to call him. He said - call unto me and I would show you great and mighty things that you do not know (Jeremiah 33:3). The truth is - you need revelation and God is ready to reveal great and mighty things to you. So go ahead and talk to the Lord. God, the Holy Spirit can help you. He can unravel the deep and mighty things of God to you. So take hold of the opportunity and ask him to reveal the secrets to you. For it is written - The secret things belong to God but those things that are revealed belongs to us ... (Deut 29:29). Beloved, it shall be well with you. If you believe, shout - hallelujah!
Daily Cry, November 10,2011
Father GOD, you call me your beloved. If I have now found grace in your sight, reveal yourself to me in a new way. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verses of the day:
But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all your works - Psalm 73:28
The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will show them his covenant - Psalm 25:14
Word for the day:
Desire to know God more and more. Don't be satisfied with your present spiritual level. Desire to know more of the almighty God than you have ever known him in your life. Desire to be used by God in a way you have never been used before. Desire to do more exploits. The people that know God shall be strong and shall do exploits (Daniel 11:32b). Beloved, God wants to do something new in your life. Sanctify and consecrate yourself to the Lord. Draw closer to him. Love him and obey his commandments. Humble yourself before him and praise and worship him like never before. Remember, God dwells in the praises of his people. If you stay in his presence, He could reveal more of himself to you and show you great and mighty things that you do not know. His path is the path of life. In his presence, there is fullness of joy. At his right hand are pleasures forever more. (Psalm 16:11).
Beloved, it shall be well with you in Jesus name. You are moving higher in Jesus precious name. (Amen)
Daily Cry - November 11, 2011
Father GOD, remember me and bless me in a special way. Order my steps and lead me in a sure path because of my enemies. Be my shield against every form of confusion or distraction from the enemy. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verses of the day:
Teach me your way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of my enemies
... - Psalm 27:11
And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that you would bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that your hand might be with me, and that you would keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested
- 1 Chron 4:10
This is the day which the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it
- Psalm 118:24
Word for the day:
This is the day the Lord has made. Be glad and rejoice in it. Today is 11/11/11. It is a special day indeed. It is only celebrated once in a century. The last time 11/11/11 was celebrated was in 11/11/1911 and the next time it would be celebrated would be 11/11/2111, which is one hundred years from today. Thank God you are alive to witness this day.
Spiritually, one of the meanings of 11 is confusion or disorder. Today being 11/11/11, Satan would want to cause some havoc or disorder but I pray it wont affect you in Jesus name. I pray that God would lead you and guide you and order your steps. I pray that God would bless you in a special way today. Believe God for restoration. Allow God to have his way in your life. The year is getting to an end. Tell God to make you what he has purposed to make you, tell him to take you to the place where you ought to be and tell him to give you what belongs to you and thank him. Beloved, God would remember you in Jesus name. Make today a day of thanksgiving. Boldly declare and say - 'this is the day that the Lord has made. I would rejoice and be glad in it. Hallelujah! Glory be to God!!
Daily Cry - November 12, 2011
Father GOD, thank you for showing me a more excellent way. I now ask you to bless and increase me in every area. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
That in blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is on the sea shore; and your seed shall possess the gate of his enemies - Genesis 22:17
Word for the day:
God is a God of blessing and increase but many times he doesn't bless us without testing or proving us. The blessings are conditional. If you obey God's law, you will get the blessing. In other words, you must pass his test before obtaining his reward. Please note this - God won't allow you to write his test without preparing you or teaching you. If you study Genesis 22, you will discover that Abraham had walked with God for a long time before God asked him to kill his beloved son, Isaac. It was a test and Abraham passed. He had known God for a long time and had learned to trust him. God had taught him patience over the years and he was willing to give everything he had, including his son. For me, Growing up was fun and exciting. I had mentors and tutors who encouraged me and taught me and helped me to be an excellent personality. One day, one of my tutors was so impressed about my score that she sent for me and asked me about my parents. She wanted to know if any of my parents were teachers. I had scored a score that she had never given to any of her students and she needed to see me and interview me. It was an amazing and exciting experience. I was shown the excellent way, I followed the path and the result was increase and excellence. When you follow the excellent path of life, you would always experience blessing and increase. When I got out of school, one of my mentors offered to sponsor a programme I had desired to do, I went through the programme and came out in flying colors. He was so impressed that he decided to help me get a job. The end result was that I got a super duper job.
Beloved, it is real. There is a glory ahead of you. You are going through the test because God wants to give you a testimony. Without the trial, you can't be triumphant. As you tread the path of excellence, I see God blessing you and enlarging you. In the same way he blessed and enlarged Abraham and I after we passed his test, I see God blessing and enlarging you. Beloved, You will pass the test and you will be promoted. God cannot give up on you. He is the referee and he will not blow the final whistle until you win. Beloved, you will win the race in Jesus name. If you believe, shout - hallelujah! Glory be to God !!

Father GOD, meet me at the point of my need and give me that much desired miracle. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles - Psalm 34:6
Word for the day:
The Lord knows your needs and he will surely meet them if you cleave unto him and do not give up. Psalm 34:6 says - the poor man cried and God heard him and saved him. The man's heart desire was to be saved from his problems. Perhaps you are like that man who cried unto the Lord, I want you to know that help is coming your way. You have to be patient. Wait upon the Lord and he will save you and give you that much desired miracle. God hears the prayer of the broken hearted and of such that has a contrite heart. He will hear your prayer. Thank him for the miracle in advance.
If your needs have been met. Never despise the place of prayer and fasting. Prayer is not only for the needy or the poor. You must learn to pray when all is well and when all is not well. Some people have become so cold in their prayer life just because God granted their previous requests. They feel they don't have to pray like they used to, anymore. That is a wrong mentality. There are many rich or wealthy men who don't have peace of mind. Some wealthy people are sick. Some of them are managing terminal diseases. That will not be your portion in Jesus name. But the fact that God has given you riches and you are now comfortable doesn't mean you should relax and stop praying. You can pray for protection for yourself and others and pray that God would meet the needs of people in your life that have needs. You can pray a pray of thanksgiving if you don't have any need. There are always prayer points you can pray. If you can pray in tongues, pray in the Spirit. Human beings ought to pray and not sleep spiritually. So be prayerful and never be satisfied with your present level. Desire more and more and desire to be a blessing to your loved ones and even those you have not been a blessing to.
Beloved, it shall be well with you in Jesus name. God will hear your prayer. If you believe, say - amen.
Daily Cry - November 14, 2011
Father GOD, the year is getting to an end. Remember me O LORD and visit me. Make haste to help me. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
MAKE HASTE, O GOD, TO DELIVER ME; MAKE HASTE TO HELP ME, O LORD - Ps 70:1
...
Word for the day:
We have forty seven days to the end of the year. 47 days is too much for God to create a miracle for you. Beloved, God has not forgotten you. If he created the universe and everything in it in six days, then forty seven days is too much for him to create a miracle for you. He can do it in one day. Therefore hold on to God and don't give up. Keep trusting and keep believing God for a miracle. Cry out to him and don't stop till he answers your prayers. I can assure you - Something good is about to happen. Be expectant and get ready for an encounter with the God of favor. He will favor you and all shall be well with you. If you believe, shout - hallelujah!

Father GOD, comfort me on all sides and give me all round victory. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
These things I have spoken to you, that in me you might have peace. In the world you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world - John 16:33
... For whatever is born of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith - 1 John 5:4
Word for the day:
Every living soul needs Jesus. The whole world is full of darkness. You need Jesus. He is the light of the world and in him you can have peace and victory. Hallelujah! Jesus is the answer you have been looking for. He has got solutions to all your problems and answers to all your questions. In John 16:33a, he said - these things I have spoken to you, that in me you might have peace. Beloved, he wants you to have peace. He said in John 16:33b -In the world you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. The happenings in the world are enough to make you fearful and worried but Jesus doesn't want you to be afraid. He wants you to focus on him and cheer up.
In Matthew 14:22-33, Jesus walked on water. Peter saw him do it and wanted to prove if it was him and asked Jesus to help him walk on water too. He focused on Jesus and started walking on water but later loosed focus and started sinking. Then called out to Jesus for help.
Perhaps, you are like Peter, you are loosing your focus on the Lord and need his help in order to be stable. I come to encourage you. The Lord would stabilize your faith. You don't need to fear. Have faith in him and live every day by faith. Jesus would keep you. No evil would be fall you. He would comfort you and give you all round victory in Jesus name. Cheer up, Jesus has overcome for you. The victory is yours. Walk by faith and keep walking and walking on, by faith. It shall be well with you in Jesus name.
Daily Cry - November 16, 2011
Father GOD, give me of your living water, refresh my soul and quench my thirst. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
But whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life- John 4:14
Word for the day:
I feel like singing. The Holy Spirit is moving. You can sing along if you know the songs. If you don't know them, just confess the words and be expectant. Expect to receive from God.
1) Anointing fall on me (2ce). Let the power of the Holy Ghost fall on me. Anointing fall on me.
2) Let your living water flow over my soul. Let your Holy Spirit come and take control, of every situation that has troubled my soul. All my cares and burden unto you I roll.
3) Rain on me (2ce) Holy power rain on me. Yesterday is gone. Today am in need. Holy Ghost power rain on me.
Sing it and mean it. Something is about to happen in your life. Receive the living presence of the almighty God into the place you are. Welcome him into your room, your house, your office, your car etc. Wherever you are, welcome him and receive strength. Receive your miracle. Receive revelation. Receive your healing. Receive your breakthrough. Something new is about to happen in your life. If you believe, shout - yeah and give God the glory. Welcome the Holy Spirit. He will refresh you and strengthen you. Beloved, It shall be well with you in Jesus name.
Daily Cry - November 17, 2011
Father GOD, make me unshakable, unmovable and unmolestable. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verses of the day:
...
And he said to them, But whom say you that I am? And Peter answers and said to him, You are the Christ - Mark 8:29
... but the just shall live by his faith - Habakkuk 2:4b
For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed - Isaiah 50:7
Word for the day:
Our God is the rock of all ages. From generation to generation he remains the same. He never changes. God is stable. His ways are the same. He cannot change and that's exactly what he wants you to be. Unchangeable! Unmovable! Unshakable and Unmolestable! God does not lie. His words abide faithful. Heaven and earth shall pass away but God's word abide forever. Hallelujah! Glory be to God!! So stand upon the word of God in all situations. There are thousands of promises in the bible. They apply to every situation of life. There are words for every situation. Search them out and find a word about your present need and stand on the word of God.
Beloved, God is unmovable. Therefore be unmovable. I just read the comments of an atheist about our Lord Jesus Christ and I felt so bad. The young man is blind and deceived. He needs help. He doesn't believe Jesus is God and that Jesus is alive. He doesn't believe in God at all. I was just thinking about what he said and really see the need for humans to have a solid rock kind of faith. A kind of faith that can not be blown away. That is why every one has got to have a personal relationship with God so that he or she will not be moved by the wind. That young man could easily deceive some people with his gimmicks and lies. The devil is really running to and fro to see who he can deceive. I know that I know that I know Jesus is alive and he is real. I have known him as Lord for over twenty years. I have seen him, heard his voice and have known him. I hear his voice and I see the good works and miracles. He shows me things. He reveals things to me. He shows me the future ahead of time and his words come to pass. Do you really know the Lord? Can you really say you have met him and that you are his ? Can you defend him and preach him openly without denying him. Do you have a personal testimony of the living God and Jesus Christ?
Beloved, the end is near. The devil is all out to get souls. Know the living God and cleave unto him. Forsake worldly pleasures and all that is anti-Christ and anti-God and cleave unto Jesus. Be unshakable, unmovable and unmolestable in Jesus name. It shall be well with you in Jesus name.
Daily Cry - November 18, 2011
Father GOD, I commit my life into your hands. Let the fullness of your grace be made manifest in my every area of my life so that I can experience Joy, increase, success and prosperity all the days of my life. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all." - Acts 4:33 (NKJ)
Word for the day:
Whatever you commit into the hands of God becomes successful (Proverbs 16:3). Your life inclusive. Your life can get better and better when your entire life is surrendered to God. Acts 4:33 tells us that great grace rested on the disciples of the early church. They had surrendered their entire lives into the hands of God and the fullness of God's grace was upon their lives.
Great grace speaks of great power and favour. It speaks of a highly level anointing. When a man has great grace upon his life, fruitfulness and prosperity would be the hallmarks of his life. Such a man would not lack Joy and increase.
Beloved, God wants you to be successful and wants your soul to be prosperous but such success and prosperity only starts when your life is surrendered to God.
Have you surrendered your entire life to God? God wants you to be successful and wants you to fully established in his grace. As you yield to him and receive grace - joy, increase, success and prosperity would be your portion in Jesus name. If you believe, shout - hallelujah!

Father GOD, thank you for saving me. Help me not to lose focus on you. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verses of the day:
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God” (Colossians 3:1)
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned to fables But watch you in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of your ministry - 2 Tim 4:3-5
This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, truce breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away - 2 Tim 3:1-5
Word for the day:
We are in the last days. The whole world is full of darkness. A lot of things are happening but we are not surprised because the events have been predicted long before we were born. They are all written in the bible. If you read the verses above and the prophecies of Christ in the four gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John), you will understand that the world events have long been predicted. Many people are living contrary to the will of God. Their lifestyle doesn't please God. As christians, we are meant to be unmovable and unshakable. Colossians 3:1 admonishes us to seek those things which are above. Our mindset, thoughts, words and actions should be in line with the word of God. Focusing on God means conforming to the image God wants us to be like. It involves doing his will and pleasing him. There are many distractions here and there but you can make up your mind and decide to take a stand for Jesus and make a stand against all works of evil.
Always remember our Lord Jesus Christ is coming soon. You don't want to be left behind. Ask for grace from the Lord and continue to focus on Jesus.

Father GOD, give me clarity in all I do and bless me with an unusual clear understanding and a sound mind. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all your getting get understanding - Proverbs 4:7
... For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind - 2 Timothy 1:7
Word for the day:
In a world like ours, You need clarity in all you do. You got to have a sound mind and the spirit of understanding. There is so much confusion in the world. A lot of people are confused. So many people are fearful and worried but with God on your side, you don't need to worry. Understanding is one of the seven spirits of God. If you lack it or want more of it, ask God for it. You need to have a clear mind in order to make good decisions. A clear understanding would help you discern and help you make a good choice. May God open your eyes of understanding. May he help you make the right decisions and may he equip you with the right insights, revelations, wisdom and knowledge that would help make you successful in your area of calling.

Father GOD, manifest your light in every area of my life; take away darkness from my life and take me from obscurity to limelight. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verses of the day:
The entrance of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple - Psalm 119:130
That was the true Light, which lights every man that comes into the world - John 1:9
Word for the day:
Darkness always bows to Light. It is clearly seen when you put on the light in the night. Light can be defined as something that makes vision possible. Light could be knowledge. It could be understanding. It could be wisdom, inspiration or good works. On the other hand, darkness is synonymous with ignorance, evil, terror, sicknesses, diseases and sufferings etc. As a christian, the benefits of having light is immense. It brings joy, healing, peace, freedom and understanding etc. If you are given an option to choose between light and darkness, am sure you will choose light. Light is good.
God is the Father of light. He has the ability to lighten your path and speak light into every area of your life. In the beginning he said - let there be light and the result was that there was light (Genesis 1:3). God can speak forth light into your life. Don't forget he is Jehovah Elohim, the God of all creation. He created all things by his word and he can do all things. What are you going through that represents darkness? Relax it would be removed. Matthew 15:13 says - Every plant my father has not planted shall be rooted up. Jesus is the light of the world. As he is, so are you. So you are also a light because he has lighted you.
From this day onwards, every darkness in your life will fade away at the presence of light. Receive light in Jesus name. Beloved, your time has come. Arise, shine, for your light has come and the glory of God is risen upon you. It shall be well with you in Jesus name. If you believe, shout - hallelujah!
Daily Cry - Tuesday, 22 November 2011
Father GOD, I ask for an overflow of your grace. Let the river of your glorious presence bless me abundantly and work out mighty signs, miracles and wonders in my life and in the life of every member of my family. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work - 2 Corinthians 9:8
And it shall come to pass, that every thing that lives, which moves, wherever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live where the river comes - Ezekiel 47:9
He that believes on me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water - John 7:38
Word for the day:
There is a mighty river that flows from the throne room of God. Invite that river into your household today. You call it the presence of God. I call it the glory of God. Praise and worship God with your heart and welcome the awesome overflowing river of grace. It is the river of God. It is the rivers of living waters. It is the river of blessing that makes rich and adds no sorrow.
The glory of God always carry his blessings. If you would praise God with all your hearts, he will bless you. The river of God flows and brings life and abundant blessings wherever it flows. God inhabits the praises of his people and each time we welcome him with our praise and worship, he comes around and makes his dwelling with us. He tabernacles with us and blesses us. I don't know what you are going through but God can deliver you from that problem. Just release it to him in prayer and start thanking and praising him for the miracle.
Do you need a blessing? Beloved, God wants to bless you but you must obey him. 'The Blessing of God' comes upon a man who believes in God and keeps his commandments. You must have faith in GOD and that faith must lead you to a place where you can start acting upon the word of God. You must put his word into practice in order to be blessed. For faith without works is dead. God said - if you will hearken to the voice of his word, he will bless you and make all his blessings to come on you and overtake you. (Deut 28: 1-14). God wants to bless us beyond measure. He desires to bless us exceedingly, abundantly above all that we ask or think of. But he requires our obedience and faith. He wants you to be a doer of the word. He needs your positive confessions. He wants you to walk by faith all the time. He expects you to give and keep on giving so he could multiply your harvest. You must pay your tithes, give to the poor and give offerings unto the LORD. Beloved, God wants to give you an explosive harvest.
He said - give and it shall be given to you. Have you being a blessing to others and have you been giving to God? He said - Good measure, pressed down, shaking together, running over shall men give unto you. It is his will to bless you but he expects that you release that which you have. He wants you to release that which he has given to you. He wants you to release that raw material to him so that he could use it to give you that which you desire. He can make use of all you are and make you what he wants you to be – rich and blessed. So release yourself to God and surrender all you have to him. He wouldn't kill you. He owns the earth and the fullness thereof. He just wants to make your life better.
Beloved, as you obey God's word, you will experience the overflow of his grace. If you believe, shout - hallelujah!
Daily Cry - Wednesday, 23 November 2011
Father GOD, I thank you for all the signs, miracles and wonders you have done in my life this year. I ask that you do even greater miracles and blessings in my life according to your riches in glory. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verses of the day:
Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing - Rev 5:12
Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honor, and power, and might, be to our God for ever and ever. Amen - Rev 7:12
Word for the day:
It's time to thank the Lord and appreciate God for all he has done. It is thanksgiving season. Hallelujah! A very long time ago I came across the two verses above and I was just meditating on them. They both contain seven things given to God. I studied both sets of seven and found out that the only difference between the two sets are - riches and thanksgiving. If you check properly you will find blessing, strength(might), honor, glory, wisdom and power in both sets. The only differences are riches and thanksgiving. And so I began to reason - Is there any link or connection between riches and thanksgiving? I know that if you give thanks, you would provoke the giver to want to give you more but is there any link?
The scripture below shows that riches in the life of a christian can lead to thanksgiving to God.
You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God - 2 Cor 9:11
On the other hand, thanksgiving can also provoke the release of riches. When you make a habit of giving thanks and sacrifices to the LORD, he will open the windows, doors and gates of heaven to you continually. You can expect the blessings of GOD and receive the unlimited blessings of Heaven into your life. When men praise the LORD, even the earth responds by giving its fruits. There will always be multiplication when your praise and thanksgiving comes from the heart. You can expect multiple fold blessings from the master and be rest assured that he wouldn't deny you of a great harvest.
Beloved, GOD is good all the time and all the time, GOD is good. This is the day the LORD has made. If you believe, shout - Hallelujah ! Glory be to GOD!!
Daily Cry - 24th November 2011
Father GOD, I thank you for all you have done for me. You forgave me, saved me and met all my needs. I am forever grateful. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verses of the day:
Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities; who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercies; Who satisfies your mouth with good things; so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's
- Psalm 103:1-5
Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. Oh, give thanks to the God of gods! For His mercy endures forever. Oh, give thanks to the Lord of lords! For His mercy endures forever: To Him who alone does great wonders, For His mercy endures forever; Who remembered us in our lowly state, For His mercy endures forever; And rescued us from our enemies, For His mercy endures forever; Who gives food to all flesh, For His mercy endures forever. Oh, give thanks to the God of heaven! For His mercy endures forever
- Psalm 136:1-4, 23-26
Word for the day:
Its time to remember what the LORD has done for you. Take a look at what GOD has done from the beginning of the year. Look back and praise him for what he has done. He blessed the works of your hands. GOD did not forget you. He opened his book of remembrance and honored you. You must give him thanks. He forgave you all your sins. He healed you when you were sick. He came to your rescue when you were afflicted. He delivered you from pit of hell and translated you into the kingdom of his dear Son. When you thank him for what he has done, he will be committed to do more for you. Remember, you were created to praise him. You must give GOD praise. Praise him all the time. Forget not all his benefits. You must bless the LORD who daily loads you with benefits. He has been there for you. When you were passing through the fire, he didn't allow it to burn you. When you passed through the waters of life, he didn't allow it to overflow you. Indeed, GOD has been good. You must bless and glorify his great name. He has kept thus far. You must magnify his name.
Beloved, give thanks to the only wise God. He is bigger than the biggest, mightier than the mightiest. Bigger than all your problems. Mighty to save and to deliver. Give God the glory. He is worthy to be praised. Hallelujah!!!!!!
Daily Cry - 25th November 2011
Father GOD, I worship and adore you for who you are. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
O give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For his mercy endures forever
- Psalm 107:1
Word for the day:
It is good to worship and praise God for who he is. Not just for what you get from him or what you can get from him. Sometimes it's good to just kneel before his throne and worship him and bless his name. Praise him for he is. Adore him and magnify his name. Don't just seek his hands, also seek his face. Seek to know the master. Seek to know him more. Some people seek his bread. Some just wants to serve but God demands more than that. He desires worship. Jesus said about mary - she has chosen that good part that would not be taken away from her. Just like mary, you can desire and choose that good part that would not be taken away from you. Desire to know God more. Desire to see his face and hear his voice. Desire to know his feelings and abide with him in his presence. Beloved, it is time to press deeper in your spiritual walk with God. Bless and worship God for who is. Hallelujah! I feel like singing - Lord, I worship you because of who you are. Do I have a witness? Sing unto the Lord a new song. Praise and adore him for who he is. He is a good God. If you agree with me, shout - hallelujah! Glory be to God!!
Daily Cry - 26 November 2011
Father GOD, give me a wise and discerning heart that I may be able to walk perfectly before you. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him
- 2 Chronicles 16:9a
Give therefore your servant an understanding heart to judge your people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this your so great a people?
- 1 Kings 3:9
And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD was with him
- 1 Samuel 18:14
Word for the day:
The eyes of the Lord runs to and fro throughout the earth looking for those with perfect hearts. He found Noah, favoured him and used him to save mankind and animals from extinction. He found Moses and used him to lead his people out of captivity. He found Joseph and he used him to save Israel as a nation. He found David and used him to kill Goliath and save Israel from the Philistines. 1 Samuel 18:14 says David behaved himself wisely. He conducted himself properly and God was with him.
Beloved, God is looking for perfect hearts. He is searching for those who will worship him in truth and in spirit. He is searching deep into the hearts. James 1:5 says - If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that gives to all men liberally, and upbraides not; and it shall be given him. Ask the lord for more wisdom and more understanding. Wisdom is the principal thing. You need it. You need understanding too. Beloved, God wants to use you for his glory. They that do know their God shall be strong and they shall do exploits. When people saw the disciples of Christ manifesting wisdom, they knew they had been with Jesus. As you abide in God's presence, wisdom and understanding would be imparted upon you and people would see the wisdom and glory of God upon you when you talk and when they see you.
Meshach, Shedrach, Abednego and Daniel had unusual wisdom and understanding and stood for the truth in their days. As a result of their stand and commitment, God was with them and fought for them when they were in trouble. Beloved, may the Lord open your eyes of understanding and grant you more wisdom. May he show himself strong on your behalf. it shall be well with you in Jesus name.
Daily Cry - 27 November 2011
Father GOD, I thank you for giving me victory over life's battles and for making me more than a conqueror. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verses of the day:
You are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world - 1 John 4:4
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord
- Romans 8:37-39
Word for the day:
The battles you are fighting is a done deal. You have been declared the winner. He that knows the end from the beginning has declared you the winner from the beginning. He is the great umpire and would not blow the final whistle until you win. Beloved, the Lord has pre-destined you unto greatness. He created your destiny long before he made you. What you are going through is just a test set up to prepare you and launch you to your destiny. You have a bright future and God will make sure you get there. Joseph passed through many tests before he became a great man but all the tests he went through was divinely permitted by God so he could enter his great destiny. God allowed the devil to make his brothers hate him so much and allowed them to sell him to merchants going to Egypt. When he got to Egypt, God again allowed the devil to make potiphar's wife to lie against him so that his master could get angry with him and send him to jail. Beloved, the challenges you are facing could bring you closer to your destiny. Back to Joseph's story, God allowed the devil to make Pharaoh to be angry with his cup-bearer so he could send him to jail. God made the cup-bearer to be released and made pharaoh to have two dreams that he could not interpret. God then made the cupbearer to recommend Joseph (whom he had met in the prison and who had interpreted his dream) to Pharaoh. Everything that happened was divinely orchestrated by God himself. Even though Satan played a role in the drama. The script was written and directed by God himself. Beloved let me tell you something - history is HIS- story. It was written and directed by God himself. I don't know what you are passing through but I want to encourage you with this. God allowed it for a purpose. He would bring out his glory from the story. Hold on and keeping holding on to God. Something good will happen and you will enter into your destiny and have a testimony in Jesus name. If you believe, shout - hallelujah!!!!!!!!
Daily Cry - 28th November 2011
Father GOD, give me the grace to follow your word diligently and faithfully and grant me good success. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verses of the day:
This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth; but you shall meditate therein day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success
- Joshua 1:8
For to us was the gospel preached, as well as to them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it
Word for the day:
God loves persistence. He loves consistent people with great faith in him. In Joshua 1:8, God demanded consistency from the Israelites. He commanded them to meditate on his word continuously every day and every night so that they would have good success. There is no better way for you to show that you are a disciple of Christ. If you cannot follow him every day, forget it; You are not a committed disciple. Lord Jesus himself said (in John 8:31) - ... If you continue in my word, then are you my disciples indeed and also said (in John 5:17) - ... My Father works till now, and I work. Beloved, if God, your Father and Lord is a committed worker then you have no excuse. You must be committed. You must be consistent and you must have a focus that is unshaken.
Every day, pray to God, read the word, meditate on the word, confess the word and do the word. At work, in church, wherever you are - follow the direction and instruction of the word. Be a consistent doer of the word and you will have good success. It is real. I know what I am talking about. I have seen the effect of the principle in my life. The power of consistency can break the yoke of delay and stagnation. A student sows good time into his studies and comes out successful. A banker sows good time practising banking and comes out a successful banker. A surgeon/Doctor sows good time practising and learning medicine and comes out a successful doctor. If you are a consistent giver that gives with joy according to the word, you will be prosperous.
Beloved, spend quality time following the word. In all your endeavours study and research to show yourself approved. Let your attitude be positive and persistent towards that assignment that God gave you and God will grant you good success.
Beloved, something good is about to happen. If you believe, shout - hallelujah!!!!!!
Daily Cry - 29 November 2011
Father GOD, I commit my life in your hands, lead me, guide me and protect me. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
Show me your ways, O LORD; teach me your paths - Psalm 25:4
Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies; make your way straight before my face - Psalm 5:8
Commit your way to the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass
- Psalm 37:5
Commit your actions to the LORD, and your plans will succeed - Proverbs 16:3
Word for the day:
The Lord will always protect and guide whatever is committed into his hands. You can trust him with your life, he will keep it. Any time you want to embark on a Journey, commit it into the hands of God and he will surely protect you. Ask the Lord to guide you, lead you and protect you. The Lord will surely lead you, protect you, grant your prayers and show you things that you do not know in Jesus name.
I have a personal testimony. Over the years, I have been enjoying God's leading and divine direction. Some people feel they need to hear audible voice or see a dream or vision before they are sure of divine protection. It is not so. When you pray and commit and surrender whatever it is, into the hands of God, the Lord takes control. I have become very aware of his divine leading and guidance though I don't hear his audible voice all the time, God leads me. I enjoy his guidance, leading and divine directions.
Many years ago, I travelled to my home-town and was supposed to stop close to the entrance of the town to meet some people but I slept off and woke up later to find out that the driver had driven past where I had decided to stop. Immediately after waking up, I alighted. Now something amazing happened that day that really made me know that once you commit anything into the hands, he takes absolute control of it even where and when you are not aware.
Earlier that day before I took off for my home-town, I had prayed and committed my trip into the hands of God. The amazing thing that took place that day was that the place I had alighted was actually the right place. I had never planned to stop at that place but God ordered my steps and where I alighted was the right place. I came down and found out that the people I came to see had re-located from where I was supposed to stop to where I alighted. I was not aware of their relocation but God knew. Though he didn't tell me audibly, he made sure he led me to the right place. It was really amazing to me. God had caused a deep sleep to fall on me before I enter into the town and woke me up when I reached the new location. Amazing!
Beloved, it is real. God leads and directs. Angels are real. Many times you don't see them but they are at work on your behalf. Keep believing and keep trusting God, he is able to lead and direct you. He would continually protect you and guide you in Jesus name. If you believe, shout - hallelujah!!!!!
Daily Cry - 30 November 2011
Father GOD, I thank you for all you have done thus far. I ask that you perfect all that concerns me. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
Verse of the day:
The LORD will perfect that which concerns me: your mercy, O LORD, endures for ever: forsake not the works of your own hands - Psalm 138:8
You crown the year with your goodness; and your paths drop fatness - Psalm 65:11
Word for the day:
November has come to an end. Thank God for all he has done so far. From January to November, God has been faithful. He has been there for you all the while and would not forsake you now. He has kept you thus far and will surely keep you till the end of the year and beyond. He will perfect all that concerns you in Jesus name.
If you haven't gotten your breakthrough, don't give up. Eleventh hour miracles can still happen. God is not through yet. He will still do miracles. He will still works out signs and wonders. Keep believing God. Never give up. Something good is about to happen in your life. God has kept the best for the last. He has reserved lovely blessings for December and he would surely crown your year with his goodness. Beloved, you would be greatly blessed. If you believe, shout - hallelujah!!!!!!
