Exodus 23:16, 34:22

-What you do first and what you do last matters a lot.

-God will never promote a man beyond his last level of obedience.

-Where your obedience stops is where God’s blessing stops.

-From that moment you are stagnated.

-Those things that He (God) wanted to be in the minds of the people, not to leave them, He put them into feasts, ceremonies or memorials so that at that point, people remember what God did.

-At that commemoration (of God’s acts), there is always a change of level, a blessing.

-Whatever God tells us to do is for our goodness.

-Every act of obedience to God is for our own good.

-We are in the last days and one of the diseases of the last days is unthankfulness.

2 Timothy 3:1-2, 2 Chronicles 32:24-25

One of the reasons why  people do not give thanks to God (why they are not grateful) is because of comparisons.

– The way to move forward is to be thankful for whatever level we are at.

-We owe God thanks.

-Be careful with what has not yet happened because that is a problem.

-Thanksgiving won’t happen by itself, you must make it happen. Satan will fight it because he knows the blessing in it.

-To receive a blessing from God makes us to have a debt to Him.

Luke 17:17

-Our payment to God is thanksgiving.

–The way to move forward is to be thankful for whatever level we are at.

-If you are ungrateful you have  no tomorrow.

-Thanksgiving is honour. That’s how God looks at it.

Psalm 50:23

-God helped somebody to help you, give glory to God.

– If God doesn’t open the hearts of people, the things they do to you, they won’t do.

-There is no justification for ingratitude, He (God) deserves thanks.

-The good things you can expect from God in the future will depend on your thanksgiving.

Psalm 107:31

-It doesn’t matter how many times you give thanks over the same thing.

⭕️There is no human that has  capacity to overturn the system that satan has put in place.

 Genesis 3:9

⭕️When you are out of your God-ordained position, fear will enter.

⭕️You operate in your God-ordained position by faith.

⭕️When faith is in place, there is no room for fear.

⭕️Every time you fear, it is already indicating to you that faith is absent.

⭕️For you to be exempted, you need to be in a certain position.

⭕️For you to be exempted, you need to be in a certain position.

⭕️Goshen is a spiritual location.

⭕️You will not survive the coming evil just  because you are a child of God.

⭕️Don’t pretend that the world is not changing when you can see it for yourself.

⭕️Hide yourself in the word of God.

⭕️At the time when the world is getting darker, it is our time to shine as children of God but we won’t shine without light.

⭕️In the kingdom of God, words are a means of creating or bringing things into material existence.

⭕️When you are born again, you must understand that words matter a lot.

⭕️Sprits and power are released through words.

⭕️Words create atmospheres.

⭕️Words can create an atmosphere of sorrow, favour, fear, faith, etc.

⭕️Use your mentality and identity (in Christ) as you face things in life.

⭕️Your identity in Christ is the root for the supernatural.

⭕️Begin to speak whatever you believe, don’t take time.

⭕️We are children of God and we should learn how to do things from our father.

Ephesians 5:1

⭕️Speaking is one way of programming your mind.

Matthew 16:13

⭕️Don ‘t be quiet when someone pronounces negative words over your life, overrule those negative words with positive words.

Matthew 12:37

⭕️Your words are what decide whatever happens to you.

⭕️To say the right words requires discipline and the help of the Holy Spirit because we want to speak out of emotions.

Proverbs 18:20-21, 16:23, 15:4

⭕️Before you can see victory, you have to speak victory.

⭕️Before you can see favour, you have to speak favour.

⭕️Before you can see power, you have to speak favour.

⭕️No miracle takes place without speaking.

⭕️Words have a spirit nature in them.

⭕️Words release power or spirits.

⭕️Whatever you hear will disappear if you don’t think about and speak it.

Acts 3:6, Luke 17:20-21, 1 John 4:4

⭕️If you don’t know what is within you, you don’t know what you can give out.

Deuteronomy 4:3-4

⭕️You stick to the Lord by sticking to His word.

⭕️God deals with us as individuals.

⭕️To fulfill what God has put into your hands, you must be willing to pay the sacrifice that it takes.

⭕️The sacrifices are prescribed by God to individuals.

⭕️You can’t use the sacrifice prescribed by God to another person.

⭕️The Lord leads us according to His own preparations but you must be willing to be led.

⭕️The food for spirits is sacrifice.

⭕️Any spirit you sacrifice to will empower you; whether it’s a demon spirit or the Holy Spirit.

⭕️Until your life comes to a point where it is a sacrifice, spirits are not yet willing to commit to you.

⭕️Your own breakthrough that God should do for you will require sacrifice too because God wants to be sure that you will be committed to Him even after the breakthrough arrives.

⭕️Solomon built only one temple for the living God and several temples for other gods.

Judges

⭕️God has been dealing with humans for a long time.

⭕️The problem with us is that we usually change for worse and not for better.

⭕️We should fight in order to not change for worse.

⭕️God hates it when people forget what He has done for them.

⭕️ When you forget those who helped you, you bring yourself under a curse.

⭕️The animal of forgetfulness is hanging around each one of us and we need to keep God close in order to keep it away from us.

2 Chronicles 24:17, 22-23

⭕️Change doesn’t just happen; it comes from a voice.

⭕️Satan sends people with a voice that causes someone to change and head in a wrong direction.

⭕️That voice could even be from a brother or sister in the church.

⭕️When God wants to lift a man, He sends a voice and when satan wants to derail a person, he will send a voice.

Psalm 78:42

What is to reign?
⭕️To hold a royal office or have sovereign power.

⭕️To dominate, to prevail, to rule.

⭕️As born-again christians, we were born for victory and to be victorious in life and destiny.

IN ORDER TO REIGN WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND:

1.WHO WE ARE

2.WHO OUR ENEMY IS

3. WHERE WE BELONG

⭕️Your identity is a very strong point of reaction against all the assaults of the enemy.

⭕️You reject or accept something on the basis of who you are.

2 Corinthians 5:16

⭕️There is nothing that frustrates grace than your ignorance of it.

⭕️Your reign in life by the life of Christ at work in you that came when you accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour.

⭕️To be born again is not to change church.

⭕️You are not a human being.

⭕️Any new creation in Christ is a threat to satan.

⭕️When you are born-again, you are a brand new being that has come into existence.

⭕️Understanding that you are new creation is crucial to victorious living.

What does the scripture teach about new creation?

1.The new creation possesses a new, holy and divine nature (2 Peter 1:1⭕️4, Ephesians 4:24)

⭕️Your new spirit was created in God’s image and likeness.

⭕️New creation doesn’t have two natures, it only has God’s kind of nature in its spirit.

⭕️New creation is no longer a slave of sin but a slave of righteousness.

⭕️This is why when you sin it becomes offensive to you because it is against your nature.

2.The new creation possesses eternal / everlasting life (John 3:36, 14:6)

⭕️In Adam we were dead and cut off from God but now we are alive in Christ.

⭕️You no longer have human life in you but the God-kind of life in you.

⭕️Eternal life is not a future promise but it is a present reality.

3.The new creation possesses the spirit of Christ (Romans 8:9-10, Galatians 4:6, 1 Corinthians 6:17, 15:48)

⭕️If the spirit of Christ is not in you, you are not born again.

⭕️When you are dealing with devils, they see you the way they see Christ.

4.The new creation possesses the mind of Christ (1 Corinthians 2:16, Hebrews 8:10-11, 1 John 2:20, 27)

⭕️If you have the mind of Christ it means you can do all things.

⭕️The only limitation there is, is the limitation in your body.

5.The new creation in Christ is God’s beloved

You are unconditionally, completely and eternally loved, favoured, pleasing and acceptable to God.

7 BENEFITS OF BEING A NEW CREATION

2.New relationship (Ephesians 2:13)

3.New identity (1 Peter 2:9-10)

⭕️You are no longer on your own, you belong to Christ.

4.New creation gives you  a new destiny (Philippians 3:20-21)

⭕️Destiny comes from your destination.

5.It gives you a new position (Ephesians 2:6)

⭕️Your seat has now changed.

6.New power (Acts 1:8)

7.New purpose (Ephesians 2:10)

⭕️How far you go is a function of the light at work in your life.

⭕️Light is in categories.

⭕️A candle produces light and heat, but it is not enough to cook with.

⭕️It is great light that leads to greatness.

⭕️satan doesn’t know everything; he can’t even guess what you’re thinking.

⭕️Feet washing is a mystery.

⭕️Once understood and practiced well, you can go to high places.

⭕️Miracle meal is another mystery.

⭕️Our feet carry a message and an assignment.

⭕️Some feet carry death to any environment they enter.

⭕️We are in a battle and those who do not know how to use their mouths will be defeated.

⭕️The power of God can never be manifested in your direction if you don’t know how to speak boldly.

1 John 5:4, 2 Corinthians 4:13

⭕️The spirit of faith speaks boldly.

⭕️Your mouth is a weapon.

⭕️Use your mouth very well.

⭕️Many people are buried because their mouths took them to the grave.

⭕️Satan deals with people by injecting fear in them.

⭕️Whatever we believe, out of faith or out of fear, is expressed through our mouths.

⭕️Our mouth reveals what we truly believe.

⭕️When you are speaking about your destiny, speak the word of God boldly.

⭕️A closed mouth is a closed destiny.

⭕️Avoid negative talk.

Romans 10:10, Mark 11:23,

⭕️Stop telling everybody what satan is doing, start telling everyone what God is doing.

3.Angels act on our behalf (Psalm 103:20)

⭕️Angels don’t operate anyhow, they hearken to the voice of God’s word.

⭕️We give voice to God’s word when we speak it.

⭕️People who don’t declare God’s word can’t enjoy angelic ministrations.

⭕️Kings are conscious of their words, they know that their words carry power.

Esther 6:1

⭕️When God remembers, he goes ahead to make people to lose peace so that you can enter your season.
