What does firstborn imply?
1. The beginning of human strength / vitality
2. Opener of womb or being the first person to do something
• This could be the first person to go to school, the first person to handle a certain amount of money, etc.

• The implication was that the firstborn becomes the heir of the family.
• The right of the firstborn was an inheritance and he occupied a special place in the family.
• If the father died, the firstborn would take up the responsibility of taking care of his mother until she died.

• When satan tries to fight the firstborn, remind God that you dedicated the first born to Him.
• In your business, remember what is your part and what is God’s part.

• When understanding is in place, hindrances are out.
• Deliverance that comes by merely driving out the demon only offers temporary relief to a person, it is when that person comes to understanding that they are permanently free
• Satan does not have general weapons that he uses on everyone, he has to fashion specific weapons for each person.
• Satan can’t use what he has fashioned for another person on you unless you and that person share characteristics.
• Being sure gives you confidence.
Heb 10:35
• It is difficult to teach marketeers anything about business because according to them they already know everything there is to know about business so there’s nothing you can tell them.
• What marketeers don’t realise is that what they know is only enough to let them live from hand to mouth.
• The poor are not poor because they lack resources, they are poor because of their mindset.
• Someone who is poor does not appreciate valuable and good things.
• The ability to recognise difference is called wisdom.
• When you have a poor mindset, you treat everybody the same way.
• Every human being is a door to something.
• Satan is clever, he doesn’t use general weapons.
• In warfare, weapons are supposed to be fashioned, you design a weapon according to the information you have gathered about your enemy.
• If their charms are working at the same time that your anointing is working, why will they come to you? Why would they leave a charm that is working to come to you.
• God makes His own attractive so that the rest can want to become like them.
• God will make their charms not work so that they come to you.
• Money is not everything.
• Very few people are making money without charms.
• People who make money using diabolical means have spiritual clauses over their money, they cannot use it for anything they like. They cannot use it for good causes because what they use it for must honor the spirit that gives them money.
• The battles you may face in your business are not only your personal battles, it is because of your relationship with this (Mountain of God Ministries’) altar.
• If while you’re connected to this altar you go and seek help from a colleague who seems to be doing well in business but is not connected to God, that person will introduce you to the altar which is giving them money and from that moment you will begin to hate this altar and anything that has to do with God.
• The place where spirits and men interact is called an altar.
• Wherever you see spirits have permission to interact with men, there is an altar.
• As long as that altar is active, there will continue to be spiritual traffic.

• We need to ascend to a level where we have control so that the benefits of what is extracted in this town (Chililabombwe) can show.

• A candle produces heat (fire, power) but that heat is not enough for you to cook nshima with.

• Don’t deceive yourself, if you are not changing in power levels, there are some things you want to experience that you will never experience.
• To get to a certain realm , you need to have the power to deal with the devils found in that realm and also have the mindset required to be established in that realm.
• There is opposition to the acquisition of knowledge.

• The anointing not only helps you deal with devils in that realm you desire to get to, but also gives you hunger to go for the knowledge you need to stay in that realm.
• Some information is very high, it requires revelation.
• Joseph not only had the interpretation of Pharaoh’s dream but also had access to the wisdom which could preserve the harvest.
• Before they can access the wisdom from your lips, they will first access the wisdom from your looks.
• If your looks betray you, they will never give you chance to speak.
• When Joseph was told that the king was looking for Him, he went to shave himself, this shows that he studied the customs and culture of Egypt and knew how he was required to look as he went to see the king. (Gen 41:14).

Deut 2:24, 26-31, Isa 45:2
• Some christian business people in Nigeria have teams of intercessors whose only job is to pray for them, while they take care of their needs. This is why they have broken into great realms.
• Imagine if as a business person you had people (intercessors) praying for you?
• Satan is capable of orchestrating transfers and job placements to disturb intercessors.
• In all the battles you face, remember and be conscious that you are sponsored by an altar.
• Be conscious of the altar that backs you.

• If you pray for something from God that you are not yet due for, He won’t give it to you.
• We pray so that we can get in the spirit.
• What you are asking God to do is not the real issue, the real issue is what you hear God say about what you are praying for.
• What God will tell you is what will bring you into what you are asking for.
John 16:20-21, 23, Rom 8:26, 1 Cor 2:10-11, Mat 6:11, James 1:5
• God gave us the Holy Spirit in order to help us.

• We don’t frustrate the agenda of satan on the day it is manifesting, we frustrate it beforetime.
Luke 22:31-32
• When a spirit interacts with a man and is interested in that person, the spirit will change the desires / appetites of the person.
• The spirit will bring its own desires into that person and the person will discover that they don’t like what they used to like anymore.
• For example if a person used to be a prostitute and was making a comfortable living off prostitution and turns to the Lord. The first thing that will happen is that all the pleasures and comforts that she was enjoying will go away before Christ can manifest Himself through them and if they are not properly discipled they can backslide as they compare how “comfortable” their lives were before they got born again.
• When you begin to follow God, the Spirit of God will kill all those things that are in you which He didn’t plan, including all those pleasures you were drawing from a wrong source.
• When this is happening, it will seem like you are under attack but you are actually undergoing a transition.
• When you meet men who have walked with God, they have stories of things they have left in order to follow Jesus and things they have gained as a result.
• There are things you must walk away from as a disciple of Jesus.
Luke 19:22, Mark 10:28-30
• Whatever you left for Jesus is is a seed which comes back to you as a a harvest.
• Some blessings are delayed because we have not built up the muscle required to withstand persecution.
• How do you know you can handle persecution? By how you behave when someone has offended you.
• Persecution is heavy.
• How will you handle it when people say you are a witch or that your business breakthrough is not from God?
• How will you react when your business competitors put a coffin at the entrance of your business premises?
