Your Devotional Theme For : Living in Union with the Spirit of Triumph Day:1.

Scripture Focus for the day:
“Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.”
— 2 Corinthians 2:14 (NKJV)

Taking Time for Reflection

The Holy Spirit calls you to walk in perfect union with the Spirit of Triumph—not as a distant helper, but as our intimate Companion and Guide. He desires a continuous conversation, a deep communion where we rest fully in His wisdom and care.

When we yield completely to Him, we discover that He has already taken responsibility for our safety, our victory, and our preservation. In this place of trust, defeat loses its grip. Triumph becomes not just an event but a way of life.

The Spirit of Triumph invites us into a closeness that mirrors the intimacy of marriage—an unbroken knowing of one another. In that union, we come to understand the hidden workings of victory that others cannot see. Our lives begin to speak with one voice—His voice—so united that it becomes impossible to separate where He ends and we begin.

This union ensures that shame, failure, and disgrace have no place in our story. Wherever we walk, the fragrance of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord is present. We share daily in everything the Spirit of Triumph possesses, because through Christ, all that belongs to Him belongs to us.

To walk in this continual triumph requires attention, dedication, and purposeful fellowship. We must carve out time for communion, conversation, and intimacy with the Spirit—listening to His ways and learning how to apply His triumph to every circumstance of life.

Even in the moment of His arrest, Jesus demonstrated unshakable triumph. When He declared, “I am He,” the power of the Spirit caused His captors to fall to the ground (John 18:6). Though He surrendered Himself to the cross, it was never defeat—it was victory manifested through obedience.

Today, the Spirit invites you to the same place of victory.

Your Call to Action

Beloved, embrace wholly the grace flowing through these words. Make a quality decision to go wholly after intimate union with the Spirit of Triumph. Choose on purpose to no longer live in cycles of victory and defeat—by stepping into continuous triumph.

Repent of every moment you’ve accepted shame or disgrace as your portion. Then return confidently to the place where Triumph reigns, and let the kingdom of Jesus prevail in every area of your life.

Prayer Point For the Day. 

Precious Holy Spirit of Triumph, I yield myself completely to You. Please draw me into a much deeper intimacy with you, to the point where my heart and Yours beat as one.
Teach me to walk in the ways of continual victory in every situation in life and help me to rest in Your care. Let the fragrance of Jesus fill every place I walk today as my life diffuses His mighty power. I ask you Lord that through me, may the world encounter the beauty and power of Jesus’s triumph as it changes their life outcomes in Jesus name, I pray Amen.

In my communion time with the Holy Spirit this morning He spoke to me about seeing things beyond the plain and beyond the mountain into the places of glory He has ordained for you to walk in this new season.

He spoke emphatically about things that eye has not seen, ear has not heard, nor have entered the heart of man the things He has prepared for us.1 Corinthians.2:9.

They shall be revealed to us through the Holy Spirit. He pointed out to me that the scriptures are not just words we speak from the bible because we know a couple of scriptures. They are real Spirit and life and He the Holy Spirit is about to bring these manifestations into our lives in true live events that will happen.

The Holy Spirit reminded me that the vision is for an appointed time and that it will speak. Habakkuk.2:3.

The words of scripture are not vain imaginations or high things which men have conceived but are the product of the Holy Spirit which shall be birthed forth for the Lord’s glory to be revealed for men to see. God does not bring to the time of birth and then fails to bring forth. Isaiah.66:9.

Just as it was Isaiah.7:14 when the Lord said that a virgin will conceive and give birth to His son. That thought was not conceivable in the eyes of men because it is not possible in the natural realm for that sort of event to take place. However, since the Lord said it because He had planned it and it was for an appointed time He was going to make it happen regardless of whether man believed it possible or not.

Man was going to be involved with the process which is always how the Lord does things on earth. So that singular event was going to change the course of history eternally and open a new breed of men loaded with the fullness of God to become the catalysts of the greatest moves of God in history. By doing and carrying out feats for the Lord that had never been seen on earth before but which became commonplace in the affairs of men.

The Holy Spirit reminded me that when Isaiah and Jeremiah spoke those prophecies men at the time laughed, scorned and ridiculed them as heretics, but the responses of men to those words never changed the facts of those words coming into reality.

No word the Lord speaks can be thwarted because the words the Lord speaks are not subject to what thus saith man.Job.42:2. So don’t be concerned when men ridicule the words God speaks concerning His plan for your life in this season but respond as Mary did when she said: be it unto me according to your word and, what Gabriel said to Mary shall be your end result because with God nothing shall be impossible. Luke.1:38.

The Lord never promised us that possible things will happen. The Lord always declares that the impossible to man will happen so that no flesh can glory in His Presence. Luke.1:37.

“So today it is time to lift up your eyes to look beyond the plain and beyond. To over the mountains of possibility into the realities that the Holy Spirit is pointing to where the impossible becomes reality as you experience the miraculous with shouts of joy and excitement. As you say, look what the Lord has done for it is marvellous in our eyes.”

“Don’t be moved by any voice that contradicts what thus saith the Lord but laugh in scorn at anything that says it will not happen for this is the time the Lord has ordained to bring His plan for your life to come to pass.”

Nothing absolutely nothing can stop the hand of the Lord so agree by aligning yourself to the truth and resist the lie that says it is impossible.

“Yes the Holy Spirit says resist vehemently the voice of doubt and unbelief that says it is impossible and agree with the Holy Spirit’s voice saying to you be part of history being created in your life in Jesus name. Amen.”

I pray that as these words register in your heart the grace contained in them will empower you to receive their reality as you incubate them in your hearts. As they will bring forth the fruit the Holy Spirit has ordained which eye has not seen, ear has not heard, nor have entered the heart of man the things God has prepared at this time of the miraculous happening for you in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit asks you today? What is your biggest failure that keeps haunting your soul? What is your greatest mistake? What makes you feel so much shame that causes you to be paralysed from taking faith actions any longer?

Why are you so frustrated and upset that it makes you want to curse God and stop serving Him? Job.2:9.

Well today as I come to you from the Presence of the Lord having been in communion with the Holy Spirit with a word of deliverance from your trouble. I say emphatically to you it is time to get out of living in that state of doubt and unbelief.

Boldly approach the Lord with confidence in His word which never fails. Come faithfully to the place of repentance from believing the lies of the enemy and ask the Lord for forgiveness for that foolishness.

Then embrace wholly the love of Jesus who paid the price for you to be free from sin to live triumphant in Him again. It is time to Live again! John.10:10.Jesus desires to heal you of all the hurts of your past and give you a brand new start in life today. Acts.10:38.

Jesus offers you rest today from all the past failures which have weighed you down and says to you be made whole again. Matthew.11:29.

It is your time to walk out free from the chains that bind you and hamper your forward movement. Boldly begin to live free from the power of sin and death through this word spoken to you today.

Be raised up from the grave of shame and disgrace which the enemy had clothed you with to walk boldly in the fullness of Jesus’s grace and goodness showered over you. Isaiah.25:8.

You shall die but live to declare the greatness of your God on this earth. Death must let you go now and resurrection life will propel you to become exceedingly fruitful in Jesus name.

Now receive this word from the Lord with all confidence in its potency and ability to accomplish its goal of triumph for your life. Then watch for the miraculous transformation you will experience through its manifestation.

Have a productive and fruitful day in the fullness of joy the Lord intended for you..

Today I share the first part of my communion time with the Holy Spirit on walking in marriage union with the Spirit of triumph.

The Holy Spirit this morning in my communion time with Him spoke of us being married to the Spirit of Triumph in Christ Jesus. This means we are in a marriage covenant with the spirit of triumph. We are through that union always in the position where we are continuously walking in the place of triumph regardless of the place we started, even if it was from an ash heap.

“All the triumph which is in Jesus automatically is available to us to use because through the marriage union we are now entitled to every provision the Spirit of triumph has available.”

My heart was excited at the reality of that prospect because I know that in many situations in my life there have been places of victory I won that were snatched away from me, because I was unaware of how to correctly navigate after the success and ended up losing ground.

This was an unfortunate pattern that the apostle Paul went through where He had major success in a Region. Then suddenly he found himself being driven away from that region through the use of influential people who stirred up trouble against his witness which resulted in him being expelled from that region. Acts.13:49. I always wanted to know and understand why this kept happening to Paul to help me correctly navigate my victories without falling into the same cycle of gaining ground then immediately losing it.

Let me now share some of the things the Holy Spirit pointed out to me about our marriage to the Spirit of triumph in Christ Jesus. In 2 Corinthians 2:14 we read these words written by the apostle Paul: Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.

I recall the first day the revelation of always triumphing became real to me because as I was reading and meditating on this scripture I realized that the Apostle Paul spoke those words after he had missed an open door of opportunity in Troas where everything was perfectly in place spiritually and the people were ready with spiritual eagerness. There was on this occasion no physical or spiritual opposition to the Apostle Paul sharing his message.

The people were spiritually ready with eagerness of heart to hear and receive his word. However on this unusual occasion Paul was the person not at rest. So he could not take advantage of this open access door the Lord had given him.

I was stunned because I knew how many times he had struggled to gain open access and the level of warfare he had to do just to prepare the ground. So now when everything was open how could he capitulate and then go on to say the Lord always leads us in triumph. So I asked the Holy Spirit how this was a triumph when he leaves without having done anything in Troas.

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me that Paul was led out in triumph in Troas, but his behavior in choosing to leave is what caused him to miss out, not the Spirit of triumph who paved the way for him. Had Paul ministered to the people there would have been much triumph that was made manifest in the lives of the people.

“I learned a life defining lesson there.” “That although the Lord can open the door for us our conduct/ actions in every situation can and does determine the final outcome we experience.”

This realization points to the fact that we must always be ready to take the opportunities the Lord presents. For this reason we need to be watchful, alert and girded with truth to make good every opportunity the Lord makes available to us.

This reality is a clear portrait of the importance of our responsibility to steward the truth faithfully to its conclusion. The Holy Spirit went on to speak to me today on the importance of being married to the Spirit of triumph and fulfilling our covenant responsibilities.

This matrimonial union speaks of being one with the Spirit of triumph which connotes walking in total harmony in choreographed movement with Jesus as one entity. It also speaks of complete agreement with Triumphing leaving no room for defeat in any situation no matter how it looks or appears. The end result will always be triumph.

This morning in my communion time with the Holy Spirit He asked me what are we doing with the abundance of grace He has lavished upon us and the gift of righteousness Jesus has bestowed on us? The Holy Spirit went on to share with me the importance of us using the grace and gifts He has bestowed upon us. This is because that is the only way in which the Lord can show His power through and among us to demonstrate the Kingdom of Jesus on earth for men to see.

The Kingdom will never be made manifest from the skies or through the wind taking over people’s hearts. People will be changed only through the lives of Jesus’s faithful lovers and followers.

We need the Holy Spirit desperately. He pointed out to me in no uncertain terms the importance of us knowing who we are in Him by understanding what and why He came to equip us for service to be vehicles through which His glory can be seen. All the encouragement and support that Jesus offers us is so that we are a true representation of His character and nature for men to see.

Let us look at the words the enemies spoke about the Apostle Peter and the Apostles in Acts.4:13 & 14 which reads these words: Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marvelled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus. 14 And seeing the man who had been healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.

The Holy Spirit asked me if this is what men will say of me today? Are we living in such a way that these words can be spoken of us? This is what men should say of us as followers and lovers of Jesus because He paid the price for us to have that rank of office on the earth to prove just how great He actually is.

The Holy Spirit went on further to point out to me to remember the words Jesus spoke to us in Matthew.11:28-30 which read these words: Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Now as you look at these words be ready to surrender every excuse you have for being incapable of being and doing what Jesus said you could do for His name sake.

Jesus invites us here to bring to Him every labor or work, effort, failure and the toll it has taken from us by surrendering everything that binds and imprisons us from moving forward in Him which He promises us that we will find rest. Not more turmoil, hurt, pain or more oppression. Jesus never says things He cannot do so when He says it. All we need to do is believe and receive it as fact then it will manifest for us.

Jesus offers us His yoke to take upon our lives, that is lay down our heavy yokes and burdens. Then immediately pick up His yoke which is light and easy thus finding rest for our souls. Living in a place where our minds, wills, emotions and intellects are in complete agreement with Jesus so our bodies reflect His nature through us in clear distinct manifestation of signs, wonders and miracles. That means men can say of us they have been with Jesus and we marvel at what they have done in the name of Jesus.

This is the reason for the abundance of grace being imparted to us by the Holy Spirit so that through us the fragrance of the knowledge of God can be diffused through our lives to change the odors that satan has spewed over the earth to cause men to live in fear of death which Jesus has defeated once and for all on our behalf. Jesus went about doing good healing all that were oppressed of the devil for God was with Him. Acts.10:38.

The gift of righteousness is to ensure that we are covered by Jesus who loved righteousness and hated lawlessness which resulted in Him being anointed above all His companions. Through the same righteousness that Jesus exuded we have it as a gift from Jesus to execute which makes us reign in life by the One man Christ Jesus. Romans.5:17. Just as we saw happen in the life of Peter and the Apostles in Acts.4 that caused their enemies to tremble in fear at what this would accomplish on the earth.

This my brethren is what the Holy Spirit wants us to have at the forefront of our lives in this season of time as we walk in the faith of Jesus demonstrating only what Jesus can do which: no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered the heart of man what God has said but is being revealed to us by the operation of the Holy Spirit in our lives for all to see. This glorifies the name of the Lord Jesus. 1 Corinthians.2:9.

My prayer for you today is that as you hear these words faith will arise in your souls and every grace necessary will awaken you to action to lay hold of these words in your hearts. Then boldly go out and become diffusers of the fragrance of the knowledge of God in every place.

May you be so energized by the Holy Spirit’s grace that you are unrecognizable to your peers. So it is said of you ”You have been with Jesus”” because the fragrance of the knowledge of Him is continually flowing through you in signs, wonders and miracles to glorify the name of Jesus as the Kingdom of Jesus is expanding and taking over in the earth through your life.

Let this be your testimony in Jesus name. Amen.

This beautiful morning the Precious Holy Spirit in my communion time with Him began thundering out of me scriptures concerning what has qualified me to be a partaker of the inheritance of the saints in the light. He was reminding me of my rights and privileges as a son of God and the true spiritual place I should walk in as an heir in the kingdom of Jesus.

The Holy Spirit is such a Divine Encourager and a lifter of spirits to empower one to take supernatural action knowing you will be covered and supported by the Mighty Hand of the Lord. With the Holy Spirit helping you, there is nothing that is impossible to you.

You will begin to see supernatural options for triumph in the most difficult and opposing situations. You will begin to visualize a spiritual path forward where it says there is no way through as Moses found out at the crossing of the Red Sea.

The path the Lord directed in Exodus.14:13-31 was through the Red Sea which would part before them to become a road to cross over on dry ground, the sea being the wall of protection for them.

Let me continue with the words the Holy Spirit thundered through me this morning. In Colossians.1:10-14 it reads these words: that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; 12 giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. 13 He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.

This scripture makes it perfectly clear that we as followers of Jesus should conduct our lives in a way that is worthy of the Lord, in other words our lives should not embarrass the Lord and discredit His name in any way shape or form.

We should be beacons of light, emblems of grace and glory that radiate His Presence and Power as a lighthouse for men to see. We are to enable people to behold the reality of Jesus in His fullness thus glorifying the splendor of His name. Our lives should be fully pleasing to the Lord in our service of Him just as it was said of Jesus. You are my beloved son in whom I am well pleased.

The Lord wants us so close to Him and in such close union with the Holy Spirit that we reflect His nature and character in everything we say or do. Like Jesus we only speak what thus saith the Lord.

Now verse 12 puts the reality of what I shared into real context for us to see because we are told to thank the Lord because we have been qualified to be partakers of this inheritance in the light.

We have been given the genuine heavenly certificate of proof showing you have gone through the syllabus set and have proven ready, fit and competent enough from the standard of the Most High God to share in the inheritance of the good works which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

Remember what Jesus spoke to His disciples in John.14:12-14 which read these words: “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. 13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.

This points to the fact that all the works Jesus did we as His followers should be doing because we are qualified to do them including the greater works than He as a single person could do. We are qualified by the Holy Spirit to do the miracles, signs and wonders Jesus performed on earth as part of our inheritance package from the Lord.

This reality of receiving an inheritance package, just because one is qualified as a son is clear to me because I got the resources my natural Dad left me once he had passed on. So I got to enjoy the benefit of what I had not worked for, in a single moment of time because I claimed my right to it as a son.

So I am always ecstatic when the Holy Spirit reminds me of what I am qualified to receive because Jesus who is perfect has reserved it for me to partake of it in the now of life.

I pray today that as you receive these words from the Lord every grace contained in them will become real in you. You will on purpose begin to partake of your inheritance in Jesus for real as you experience what it really means to be a son of the Most High God. May the reality of the Holy Spirit walking in and through you to manifest the Hand of the Lord on your behalf become a daily reality in your life experience here on earth. May you glorify the name of the Lord.

Remember Jesus desires that you are raised up as a beacon of light and a banner of righteousness, a gem of marvellous Praise to His wonderful name that men can clearly see and know God from in Jesus name. Amen.

This morning as I took my communion time with the Holy Spirit I was so excited because last night before I slept the Holy Spirit dropped a word in my heart that stirred me back to alertness because it was so strong. It was such a compliment to the word He gave me yesterday of asking the Lord for what was inconceivable from man’s perspective. I duly received the word and meditated on it till I slept. This morning the Holy Spirit has broadened my horizon on it and I want to share this word with you.

The Holy Spirit said to me that He is going to fill me with what is uncontainable. The Holy Spirit is so large and His reach so broad that the very earth cannot contain His glory and He wants our lives to be full of His uncontainable power on the earth to show just how great God actually is. In Habakkuk.2:14 which reads these glorious words of promise from the Most High God For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, As the waters cover the sea.

Let the true import of these words wash over your heart and soul to replenish every weariness, tiredness, doubt, unbelief and fear far away from your life. May this word so captivate your heart to such a high level of trust that you burst out with an exuberant stupendous praise to the name of Jesus.

The knowledge of the glory of the Lord covering the earth as the waters cover the sea. It is one thing for the glory of the Lord to cover the earth because that involves only the Lord showing up with His Presence. We will see it as Israel saw the pillar of cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night but had no understanding of its impact on their lives because they did not know His ways, but only experienced His great acts performed on their behalf.

I have found that humans are very unappreciative of things they receive which did not cost them something. They feel a sense of entitlement meaning they deserve it and it’s no big deal. Moses was the person who spent forty days on the mountain seeking God with all his heart with fasting. Then came down and dispensed what the Lord had imparted to him to an ungrateful people who gave nothing to receive such a blessing.

What the Holy Spirit is pointing out here is that the knowledge by revelation which we as His people walk in by understanding its process will cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. We will be walking in such intimate knowledge of the glory of the Lord that it covers, blankets the earth as waters cover the Sea.

The only thing visible will be the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as we swim in it. Completely saturated by what only the glory of the Lord can do all the time. Ezekiel.47:5. Extraordinary, unusual miracles, signs and wonders being manifested in and through our lives on a daily basis.

Well this is the uncontainable power of the Lord which the Holy Spirit whispered in my ear last night that He wants us to be full of on the earth at this time.

The miraculous power of the Lord so visible in all nations at the same time that it alone is the most famous talking point in the lives of men who are continually bearing witness to what great things the Holy Spirit has wrought in their lives through infallible proof of its manifestation in their individual circumstances and situations.Each person knowing how the glory has worked and impacted their lives possessing the ability to explain what has taken place in their lives to others for them to marvel and be converted to follow Jesus. Acts.2:14-36.

The mystery of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord made manifest with us humans knowing and understanding it, being intimate about it as they testify of its potency and effectiveness that all flesh gets to see in full manifestation. When the Holy Spirit spoke to me yesterday about asking Him for inconceivable things, this thought of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord covering the earth had not crossed my mind.

However this thought given me by the Holy Spirit last night is inconceivable to imagine that all people will be able to explain the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as real as the waters cover the sea. This is not about a river that can be shallow at various points and places but is referring to the depths of the waters overflowing to such a degree that it alone at every point is the same level of depth and we are covered in it. What a startling thought which we must receive and line up with.

I am still in awe of this reality and continuously meditating on it as I write this post because this is beyond what we as humans can imagine possible and it takes more grace imparted to comprehend the full magnitude of these words as the new norm on the earth.

When we look at the state of nations at this point in time it seems so far away, but I have come to see and know that what would take men thousands of years to accomplish the Lord can do in a moment of time so I choose to just believe it , receive it and embrace its reality in my daily life. God said it, I believe it and that settles it.

We need to be as receptive to the Lord as Mary was in Luke.1:26-38. When the angel Gabriel said to her you will conceive and bear a son though you know not a man. Her response was be it unto me according to your word Lord. AS she received the word from that moment her life dramatically changed as she became highly favored as she watched her life transformed to the point where men from the east came bringing gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh which they laid at the feet of Jesus which she had never experienced before but that now became the new story of her life once she accepted the plan of the Lord.

It was so real that it got to the point that Mary could say to the servants at the wedding feast in John.2 whatever Jesus says to you to do, just obey and do it. It will be as He says because no word He speaks ever fails to achieve what He said it will do and I have absolute confidence in what He speaks. 

This is the place the Holy Spirit wants us to walk in total submission to every word He speaks to us because His words are Spirit and life. As such they will happen exactly as He spoke them. If people in Israel had such confidence in the words the prophet Samuel spoke that they said of him that from Dan to Beersheba it was known that no word of the Lord spoken by Samuel ever fell to the ground.

Every word He spoke from the Lord came to pass. How much more now will every word spoken by the Holy Spirit come to pass as He only declares what Jesus says and wants to happen.

My prayer for you today is that as you hear these words the grace to see them manifest in your lives will be given to you so you will be endued with ability/ power from on High to walk this word out by embracing the knowledge of the glory of the Lord overshadowing your life as the waters cover the sea to become visible in your daily walk from this time onwards.

This is not a hit and miss situation but a new reality that will become the pattern of living in your daily experience as a lover and close follower of the Lord by the power of the Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus.

Open your hearts wide to allow the Holy Spirit to pour out the unlimited Knowledge of the glory of the Lord in your lives. Choose to doubt your doubts and believe the truth of these words alone as you embrace them with everything in you and refuse to let go of them under any circumstance or human event in the name of Jesus. Amen.

This morning in my communion time with the Holy Spirit He reminded me of just how connected He is to Jesus and what privileges having a relationship with Him does for our lives. The wonderful atmosphere we are able to create and bring into reality because when the Holy Spirit is present with us. He makes the miraculous available not just for ourselves but makes it available for others to be free.

In 2 Corinthians.3:16 & 17 we read these awesome words: Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

The reality in this scripture is that we as humans are veiled about so many situations and things in life. We are at a disadvantage because we lack the true understanding of how and what is necessary to correctly process the facts of life. We as humans find it difficult to come up with the right conclusions that produce the relevant solutions that will resolve the issues in life. We are most times blindsided because we are unable to see the full view/picture of what faces us.

This is why it is so very important for us to repent often and turn to the Lord because only when we turn to Him is the veil that covers our minds removed. Once the veil is removed we begin to see clearly what is evident in the Spirit to correct and make good what is lacking and deficient in any situation in life.

The covering or veil that blocks us is taken away when we turn to the Lord. This is why it is so important to develop a dedicated communion time with the Holy Spirit each day because the Lord Jesus is the Spirit. Remember John.14:26  But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.

The Holy Spirit is one with Jesus and helps remove the veil on our hearts and minds to enable us embrace truth and know all things because He knows all things because He can reveal them to us.

This progression goes much further because where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty. If the Holy Spirit is present in any environment there will be freedom and liberty for people.

I realized as I have walked with the Holy Spirit that when I bring Him into any environment I come into people suddenly become spiritually aware and conscious.They start to become even prophetic, conscious and aware of the true picture of situations.People seem to have insight into deep spiritual things, because their spirits seem to be energized.

I always stand in awe of what happens when the Holy Spirit begins His operation in the lives of men and women. I remember occasions when I had gone to the supermarket, and in this particular event I met a former classmate of mine. I was with someone who I was mentoring at the time and this guy I had not seen since our days in secondary school. He instantly recognised me and started speaking to the person I was mentoring about how to deal with an anointed person by not taking for granted someone full of the Holy Spirit.

When we were in school together I was not even saved so how did he know? He kept speaking words to the effect of how an anointed person should be treated to this disciple and what a privilege it was for her to have this available in her life.

I never said a word throughout the time as she kept marveling at how real the Lord was as she observed what the Holy Spirit did through that event and how the Holy Spirit took hold of the tongue of someone to confirm to her, that her choice to commit to the Lord and follow Him by hearing from my experience with the Lord to be equipped for the Lord’s service. I had taught that day about how the Holy Spirit would confirm true events to them to ensure they knew the truth in certain terms. In other words, they have proof through the Holy Spirit of the teaching they received from me.

Liberty was in the air because of the Holy Spirit who was present with me. This was commonplace with me when I went out shopping. I saw the Holy Spirit work miracles in people’s life everywhere which is exactly what happened in the life of the Apostles of Jesus and Jesus Himself. He met people where they were and changed their lives.

We forget that all the disciples who became Apostles of Jesus were called out from their circular jobs or business by Jesus to follow Him. The Kingdom is not just about Church activities but it takes over the earth realm. In the book of Acts the men in Ephesus describe the Apostle Paul as the man who was changing the world upside down. However it is really upside up, because the Kingdom is what is true life going upwards.

Let me share one more story of the power of the Holy Spirit at work in a law chambers where I met two ladies in Botswana who were struggling to stand up as I started to speak to them about the Kingdom. I told them Jesus was real and His Presence could be felt and experienced. They then told me that they could not stand because a force was blowing on them and convicting their hearts to confess their sins and accept Jesus as Lord. It was a holy time as the Holy Spirit in those few moments was already working on their hearts.

We need to be able to bring the Kingdom reality to people where they are by bringing the Holy Spirit and allowing Him to exude the liberty and freedom of Jesus to those oppressed of the devil by making people’s lives new.

The liberty the Holy Spirit brings is not an allowance for every fleshly evil action and all types of vulgarity, but to produce true freedom from the things of sin, iniquity and other forms of bondage and oppression of the devil.

I pray that as you hear and receive this word it will take root in your heart and become your pursuit. May you walk in the grace these words supply to you and become an agent of bringing the liberty of the Holy Spirit everywhere you go. May your life bring a complete change of environment that brings Jesus on the scene by spreading an expansion of His Kingdom on earth.

Always remember that it is simple obedience to what Jesus says that brings results. The Holy Spirit wants each of us to walk in the place Jesus ordained for us to walk and will help us if only we are willing to obey Him and follow His path for life. 1 Corinthians.2:10-16.

May the Holy Spirit guide you to walk everyday in the liberty He supplies and make you into a new being that truly represents Jesus in signs, wonders and various miracles that glorify Jesus and turn souls to Him to serve and follow Him with their lives in Jesus name. Amen.

This morning the Holy Spirit in our communion time shared with me again the importance of speaking only the things we want to happen in our lives as a refresher and reminder of guarding our tongue. He emphasized the importance of the fruit of our lips being full of praise. Hebrews.13:15.

Jesus was the person who warned us in Matthew.12:36 about the cost of speaking idle words from our mouths indicating that the price for them is more than we can sometimes bear so we should watch out for what we say with our mouths in order to avoid negative fruits showing up later in our events when we least need them. In Hebrews.13:15 we read these words 5 Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name.

The theme of these words are so beautiful because again the Lord through the Holy Spirit is the person who helps us keep our mouths full of praise. Most times we do not think of our words as an offering we must make to God. We only think of giving money as our offering to the Lord, but in truth we are to give our mouths as a permanent offering of praise continually to the Lord as our sacrifice of service to Him.

Let me give you an example of what I mean. You can give a financial offering to God which we are supposed to do for our benefit, but right on the back of it say words that disqualify us from receiving the due harvest because we use our mouths to contradict and stop the process of harvest manifesting on our behalf.

Malachi.3:13-15 reads these words: “Your words have been harsh against Me,” Says the Lord, “Yet you say, ‘What have we spoken against You?’14 You have said, ‘It is useless to serve God; What profit is it that we have kept His ordinance, And that we have walked as mourners before the Lord of hosts? 15 So now we call the proud blessed, For those who do wickedness are raised up; They even tempt God and go free.’ ”

This is a perfect example of what the writer of Hebrews is pointing out that we ought not to do. We are to be harsh in our words against the enemy by rebuking him, but certainly not against our only help and aid, God.

Just look at what they said with their mouths, the insult to the Lord and His word, that it is useless to serve God. After all the good the Lord had done for them based on His covenant promises. Jesus cannot accept an offering from your mouth that is a lie because Jesus can never affirm and bring to pass lies. This reality is because no one whoever trusts in the Lord can be ashamed or disgraced.

The Holy Spirit is only with us to help us stop the trends of disgrace and shame by bringing us glory. No matter what you see happen your mouth and words must never agree with the enemy, but always with the truth that the Lord has said. John.16:13.

Remember the unfortunate situation with the Apostle Paul and Silas in Macedonia in Acts.16:23-26 which reads these words: And when they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, commanding the jailer to keep them securely. 24 Having received such a charge, he put them into the inner prison and fastened their feet in the stocks.25 But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them. 26 Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone’s chains were loosed.

You ask how did Paul and Silas give praise in that unfortunate incident where they were beaten for doing a good act for someone? They knew who they served and were not going to offer Him complaints but demonstrate to the prisoners the power of the Jesus they served by praising Him vigorously and you know the ensuing results of an earthquake that changed the lives of so many as they saw the rewards of offering praise as the fruit of their lips to the Most High.

No natural events should ever make you change the fruit of your lips. I recall when I was on a journey to Botswana from Nigeria and when I arrived in Botswana they refused me entry because Nigeria was on the list of Ebola affected countries banned from entering Botswana, but that Government decision had not been made known to the me before I had made the journey and was then told and escorted by Botswana immigration to leave and go back on the next flight back to Johannesburg.

Now I had just completed an 8-10hours flight combined and was now set to go back on the same journey and miss all I had planned to do in Botswana. Satan of course was speaking loudly to me to speak negatively about Botswana, but I resisted the urge to speak negatively of the whole event and chose to praise the Lord. Then the peace of the Holy Spirit rested on me as He spoke to me saying that everything would be alright. He also promised me that He would make it up to me and sort out the mess which happened and recompense me for it.

As the plane took off after about a two hour stint in Botswana I went on and experienced such peace I prayed for Botswana with such joy you would never have believed what I had experienced even though I was tired and worn from the flight journey.

The Lord made it up to me and I was back in Botswana one year later and met the same fellow at the airport who had refused me entry having come from Nigeria, this time from the UK and he remembered me. He was happy to give me a warm welcome. It works to offer God the sacrifice of praise in any and every situation because it allows the Holy Spirit to inhabit the venue and show forth the Might of the Hand of the Lord in manifestation.

I have had many trying plane situations that have sought to force me to utter words of complaint as I enter the region to bring the good news of the Kingdom, but as I chose to offer the sacrifice of praise with my lips I have watched the Holy Spirit change the dynamics and give me a grand entry into the particular nation with increased favor for the trip.

It is always worthwhile to do what the Holy Spirit says even though it looks odd in the circumstances by giving thanks to the Lord because the Holy Spirit steps in and makes all the difference which always brings a beautiful reward of triumph on your behalf.

My prayer for you this morning is that as you hear these words you will find the grace made available to you through the Holy Spirit to offer the Lord your sacrifice of praise through your lips to give Him thanks to Him. Then watch how your life will experience the mighty hand of the Lord, change circumstances for you by giving you stories with infallible evidence that the word of God works in every instance in your life no matter what shows up to challenge it as long as you let your mouth agree with the Lord. This grace will empower you to be a valuable witness to people that the Lord’s word is real and works.

Open your heart also to repent of all the negative words you have offered the Lord in the past so the Holy Spirit can give you a fresh opportunity to be released from the consequences those negative words have set up against you to harm you in the future by changing your pathway back to the path of the Lord which offers you pleasantness, peace and the miraculous.

Make the choice today to be steadfast in offering spontaneous praise as the fruit of your lips to God from this time forward and watch to see how your events will change. The miraculous things you will see the Holy Spirit accomplish on your behalf in Jesus name will astound you.

I encourage you to make a solemn declaration to the Lord to watch that your mouth and words only declare praises to the Lord. Correct yourself instantly when you fall short of it so you are living in the state of praise to the Lord daily in Jesus name. Amen..

This morning the Holy Spirit in our communion time reminded me of what the Lord has provided for us His followers and the process through which we can lay hold of all the wonderful things we read and wonder about concerning the life of those who walked with God.

We must always remember, the Holy Spirit pointed out to me that we have obtained the same precious faith the Apostles walked in and for that reason we can also share in all the benefits and true manifestations of what they walked in the Holy Spirit if we apply and put into action the same things they did.

The Holy Spirit said that we need to stop idolizing what the Apostles accomplished and start walking in the same anointings that brought them results so our lives can reflect the glory of the Lord for men to see today just as theirs did

Let us look confidently at the scripture the Holy Spirit quickened to my heart this morning from 2 Peter.1:1 which reads these words: Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:

The Apostle Peter was first of all a bond servant of Jesus which means Peter only repeated and obeyed what His Master spoke to Him to say. He then executed the action in obedience as an Apostle sent to represent Jesus.

Someone sent on an errand with a specific message to deliver to a people from Jesus which they are to receive as if Jesus Himself was addressing them with absolute confidence knowing that what was contained in that spoken word would manifest on their behalf if they just received it and embraced it in their lives. Just as an Ambassador of a Nation has the authority of the Nation he represents to say their decisions on any matter.

This means that what is about to be said should be received, accepted and then applied to your life in the now to change whatever was there before. This is to ensure we line up with this new truth. To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of Our God and Savior Jesus Christ.

Now let these realities sink deep into your spirit: When you are told you have obtained something it means you have possession of it. You now have ownership of the thing spoken of.

You are no longer in the position of hoping you will receive it but you now have it present in your possession. Let me share a personal story to emphasize this point. As a teenager I remember only telling my friends that I was traveling for holidays when I had the airline ticket in my possession. I never said a word that we were planning a holiday trip because anything could happen to stop or cancel it.

This was because many classmates would normally tell us what their parents were discussing about travel plans. However they never travelled in that season because it was a discussion not a fact. This leaking of information for bragging would mean they were laughed at and derided in class for saying what never happened with words of: how was your holiday haha?

On the other hand in my situation I would come back with the proof of having travelled with goods from London that proved my travelling though I had said nothing prior about traveling. I am using this analogy because this is how real having obtained something from the Holy Spirit is, and the Holy Spirit has used it to remind me many times of my certainty in receiving what God had for me, because it is in my possession so it can be used anytime.

The Apostle Peter said we have obtained the same like precious faith that He had which means to me that what Peter did we should be able to do also.

Let’s look at what Peter’s precious faith did in Acts.3:6 & 7 which reads these words: Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.” 7 And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. Peter said such as I have or have obtained the name of Jesus I give you, rise up and walk and the man walked instantly.

Peter was not hoping that someday this healing would manifest for the man. He knew what he possessed of the power of Jesus and once he released it in the now it happened exactly as spoken by Peter. The man got up and walked leaping and praising God in the temple.

Peter goes on to explain in Acts.3:12 these words: So when Peter saw it, he responded to the people: “Men of Israel, why do you marvel at this? Or why look so intently at us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk? Verse.16 And His name, through faith in His name, has made this man strong, whom you see and know. Yes, the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

The precious faith we received through Jesus Christ has brought about this miracle not Peter’s special relationship with Jesus, but a like precious faith we can also walk in which we have now received. We just need to put it in action as Peter did that day. This is because we received it from Jesus as a gift of His grace not our own ability by the operation of the Holy Spirit. Ephesians.2:8.

Years later the same precious faith works for Peter again in Acts.9:33-35 which reads these words: There he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden eight years and was paralyzed. 34 And Peter said to him, “Aeneas, Jesus the Christ heals you. Arise and make your bed.” Then he arose immediately. 35 So all who dwelt at Lydda and Sharon saw him and turned to the Lord. Peter again says Aeneas receive healing in Jesus name and it happens immediately and just see what miraculous events happen on the back of this miracle.

This is the same precious faith Peter tells us that we who have trusted Jesus have also obtained. So we need to press into using this precious faith to bring about the miraculous as Peter did so we can experience the same results through our lives. This only because we have the same access by faith to all the promises Jesus made available to His followers.

My prayer for you today is to absolutely believe the words you have heard by receiving them as the man at the temple gate did. Then move into the place of manifestation of God’s miraculous power working out signs and wonders on your behalf.

May you also find the abundant grace in these words to be a demonstrator of this precious faith by going forth by being an example demonstrating the healing power of Jesus to men as Peter did. Come off the side lines and be a true witness, Participator in the power of the Holy Spirit in demonstration.

Remember Jesus gave it to all who believe in His name in Mark.16:17 & 18 which reads these words: And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”

Go ahead and allow the Holy Spirit to make you a faithful servant of Jesus through the word of truth you have received by continuing to follow Jesus faithfully. Be the standard bearer of the truth of the Kingdom of Jesus for men to see as you come into the knowledge of the truth and become free in Jesus name. Amen.
