LOCKING IN YOUR BLESSING WITH THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving is a way of locking in your blessing against spiritual robbers; thanksgiving is a seal of protection upon our blessings. Just like when you lock your door nobody can have access to your house unless you allow them; the same way when you give glory to God for the blessing you have received you have automatically locked in that blessing and no one would be able to steal or corrupt it. When we thank God for what He has done he will put a seal of protection on your blessings and the destroyer will not be able to access it. Thanksgiving is a mystery. Thanks givers never lack favour; people will naturally want to give favour to those who know how to show appreciation. When you thank God for what you have not received you are indirectly reminding him of his promise and your pending unanswered prayer. Let's look at the example of Abraham, he was thanking God for the promise not the physical manifestation. But today, we the seed of Abraham even find it difficult to give glory to God for answered prayers. Even when the promise seems delayed his thanksgiving has released the grace to tarry. We all need grace to tarry and thanksgiving is what triggers the release of that grace. 

Romans 4:17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which are not as though they were. 18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. 19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara's womb: 20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; 21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

Since I got the understanding of the above scripture, I began to practise the act of giving thanks for the promise of God upon my life. It gets to a point that if it looks as if I have not documented it for thanksgiving, the Spirit of God will quickly remind me. I found myself having thanksgiving seeds separately from my worship offering almost every week because I always found something to thank God for. When you thank God for his promise upon your life, you are acknowledging him for his faithfulness; you are saying that you trust him and that you have confidence in him; and he will be committed to bring it to pass. And anytime you remember his promise and thank him; it is kind of a soft reminder that you are still here waiting. Daniel 10:12 (Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words. 13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia).

Daniel´s answers were hijacked by spiritual robbers and when he kept pressing, God was alerted and he remembered that he sent Archangel Gabriel to Daniel and he sent a higher force to go and release Gabriel and then Daniel´s answers were delivered. If Daniel complained, God would turn a deaf ear and would even get angry with him but he did not. Instead of complaining that you have not received your answers and that the year has come to an end while not turning it into Thanksgiving and see if God will not open his book of remembrance in your favour. Year 2023 is coming to an end for sure but it marks the beginning of another glorious year, and you are still alive which means you can still receive your hanging testimonies. Just like Abraham, if you will lay it to heart to give glory to God for his promise, your Isaac will come forth. The promise of God is for the children not for a stranger; and for your Thanksgiving to register in heaven, you need to be a child of God. If you want to be born of God this moment, pray this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus name. I see you locking in your blessings for preservation, in Jesus' name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THANKSGIVING

Malachi 2:1 And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you. 2 If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the LORD of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart. 3 Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it.

Thanksgiving is what you give in acknowledgement of the good deed that someone has done for you. That is, it is a way of making it known to someone who shows you kindness that you have received what he sent. Thanksgiving is an application for more (Bishop David Oyedepo); when we appreciate God for where we are right now we are indirectly committing him to move us further to the next level. Just because you have not got to where you want to be does not mean that God has not shown you kindness. Your current position is another person's prayer point; so, it is good to give glory to God. Luke 17:17 (And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? 18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. 19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole).

As a believer there is a stamp on all our blessings; the stamp is to send an alarm to heaven if you have received your package and refuse to acknowledge it; instead of blessings; the curse will kick in immediately. Your adversary who is in charge of activating curses is always on standby and it is only your thanksgiving that can deny him access and keep him away from corrupting your blessings. Thanksgiving is that access code that you need to unwrap your package from God; if you try to unwrap your blessings without Thanksgiving that stamp will send a signal to heaven; Nene has just received her package and she is trying to unwrap it without acknowledging the receipt. Satan will say yes, let's corrupt it; access granted, that is, you have given him access to corrupt your seed, to put dung on them and turn them into curses. God forbid, that will not be you again, in Jesus' name.

Thanksgiving is a way of reminding us of the superiority of God so that we will not go the way of Lucifer. God wants you to acknowledge him that He owns what you have and that even the air you breathe belongs to him. human beings use copyright and patent rights to safeguard their invention and intellectual property. The only way God can safeguard His creation, which is you and me, is through acknowledgement. We are to reference him in all our ways; we give reference when we use someone else's work to do our own so why are you finding it difficult to acknowledge God for His faithfulness in your life. He makes sure that you wake up anytime you sleep. That is number one. This means every day when you wake up you are to acknowledge God who has made it possible by saying, Father, I thank you. If what you waited for since the beginning of the year has not come to pass, that should not be the reason for your unthankfulness; you are alive and healthy. It is only the living that can give praise to God and that is because it is only the living that is still hopeful. Ecclesiastes 9:4 (For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion). Life is a privilege, so being alive means another opportunity has been given to you to do something and you owe God thanks for making it possible. Thanksgiving is mandatory; God is expecting it; it is a commandment and it is as important as the Ten Commandments of God. When I got the understanding of the above scripture that the blessings are side by side with curses I began to practise the act of thanksgiving. Friends, make a decision to live a life of appreciation by constantly appreciating God for His faithfulness in your life and you will not regret it. It is arrogant not to give thanks to God and it is a high level of pride that will make you find it difficult to appreciate others for the kindness they have shown towards you. The scripture says that pride goes before the fall, you will not fall in Jesus' name (Proverbs 16:18). Anyone who receives a package from God and refuses to give glory to Him by acknowledging it, is grouped in a class of a thief; please don´t get me wrong. the above scriptures say that the blessings of such a person are already cursed and (Zechariah 5:3-4) says that the curse is in the house of a thief. Zechariah 5:3 T(hen said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it. 4 I will bring it forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof). That will not be you in Jesus' name. After all, patent rights and copyrights are to protect your invention and intellectual property against thievery. Friends, now that you know how important thanksgiving is to God, ask for the grace to be a thanksgiving addict and you will receive it, in Jesus' name. From today henceforth, the enemy will not get access to your blessing again, in Jesus' name. Your relationship with God is very important to him, if you are not yet in a relationship with Him, quickly pray this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus' name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and Saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

GETTING THE DEVIL OUT OF THE EQUATION

When I say getting the devil out of the equation, I am not saying that the devil is not existing; it simply means getting him out of your territory; make him uncomfortable; don't give him space; let him become irrelevant and inconsequential by reducing him to the lowest denomination. One may ask; Nene, is it possible? Of course it is very possible because all the weapons you need to reduce him to the lowest level in your affairs are already given to you. He will become of no concern to you because anytime he tries to raise his ugly head he will not be able to do that because your feet will remain on his head constantly. Note that, it is the space you create for him that he will occupy in your life; God has given you all the ammunition that you need to put him where he belongs, that is, under your feet. The bible says that we are not ignorant of his devices and the bible also says that we perish because we lack knowledge. 2 Corinthians 2:11 (Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices). 

Hosea 4:6 (My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children).

Which means the devil is not that powerful as you think the problem is our ignorance of his devices. When you know how he operates, getting him out of the equation will not be a problem. Friends, don't allow him to take advantage of you; make everywhere tight for him; give him no space to enter. Paul the Apostle studied how the devil operated and he was advising the Church in Corinthians to learn how to forgive each other of their tresspasses so that the devil will not take advantage of that by activating curses against them. The bible says that you should submit yourself to God and resist the devil and he will flee from you (James 4:7 ); The devil does not stay in the territory where he is well known, he loves darkest places where there is no knowledge of God, where there is no light or where the light is not too bright. Psalm 119:130 (The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple). The word of God which is also His light is your weapon against the device of the devil. He will naturally flee from you because of the intensity of the light you are carrying; the presence of God in your life is the only thing he respects.

2 Corinthians 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

The battle over our destiny is fought and won in the mind; if you refuse to study how the devil operates and put him where he belongs it is to your own detriment because he has already known you and he knows how to get you to sin against God and then create access for himself to penetrate your life. If you have a pride issue he knows and he will sneak into your mind and begin to praise you. He will be telling his victim, don´t mind that individual, you don't need to apologise; don't forgive her why did Nene even do that to you. But if you have the knowledge of the scripture you will bind him immediately and he will not be able to use that weapon against you again. And the more scriptural knowledge you get the more irrelevant he becomes in your life. That stronghold of addiction, unforgiveness, covetousness, stealing, fornication; they all start from the mind before acting out and you can pull them down by using your own stronghold which is Christ himself the word of God. Jesus Christ is the word of God and he is our stronghold (Zechariah 9:11-12). As you run to him today and begin to plead his blood over your thoughts and all those things clouding your mind that is making it impossible for God to manifest in your life will surrender, in the name of Jesus. Make a decision to obey God and the devil will be under your feet for life, in Jesus' mighty name. If you are manifesting the gift of the devil you will not be able to fight him, to defeat him you need to change position by dropping all his gift and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour by praying this salvation prayer below. And, I see you getting him out of the equation, in Jesus name. The last battle lost will be the last one you will ever lose, in Jesus' name. You are welcome to the winning camp.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

REFUSE TO REMAIN IN THE MANGER

Life is designed to be locomotive in nature and not sedentary; we are ordained to move from glory to glory and until we get to our destination we are not meant to stop.

2 Corinthians 3:18 (But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord).

Jesus Christ our perfect example did not remain in manger while should you remain there. Manger is your starting point and not your final destination. If Jesus Christ died in the manger nobody will follow him and we will never see him as our example, the reason is very simple because no one wants to be associated with a failure. He has his own challenges even as a baby, men seek to kill him and his first journey from the manger was to flee for safety from evil men. So, I don't care how many demons are seeking to take your life because of your star; keep moving God will soon make them your footstool (Psalm 110:1-3).

Luke 2:11 (For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. 12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger).

Philippians 2:8 (And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name):

Friends, you have an envious destiny in Christ and that is why the devil is out to frustrate you but guess what your victory is sure in Christ Jesus. Your obedience to the word of God is your guarantee to  a life of abundance; your rising is tied to your obedience to His commandment.  Christ has defeated your enemy for you and all you need to do right now is to follow him and let him show you how to claim your victory. Jeremiah 1:5 (Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations). You are not a biological accident and your life is not by chance, God formed you in your mother's womb for a purpose and all you need now is to find that purpose and move out of the manger. You are not an unfortunate child, neither are you unlucky; but you are trailblazer, a pathfinder and through you the generations to come are going see light that God has revealed through you. So, keep moving and don´t stop because you will soon get there; the time for you to be revealed to your world is coming close. You may start small but you are not permitted to end small; it is anti covenant to remain in the manger. Job 8:7 (Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase). If you are already in Christ, you are doing very well, don't be discouraged but if you are not yet in Christ, there is still an opportunity for you to connect with him and move quickly from the manger. I personally, i was born in a manger but i have move from there even though i have not arrived my final destination but i am no longer where i used to be, i am still moving forward; i am a work in progress, the journey is great and adventurous and i am liking it because no devil can stop my moving forward. We remember the manger because a great star was born there, the same way the world will remember your humble beginning and glorify your Father in heaven, in the name of Jesus. The story of your journey will humble many and convert many souls to God, in the name of Jesus. People will say, if God can bring you out of this kind of place and raise you up, that there is hope for them in Christ. Friends, God has a prepared place for you on top and it is called your promise land; a land fill with milk and honey; Jesus Christ does not have an empty land, all his lands are full of substance. Hurry up and occupy yours and in case you are still on your way, don´t worry, he is chasing away the strangers who is occupying your land right now. He is building your mansions and it will soon be completed. Exodus 23:28 (And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee. 29 I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee. 30 By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the land). So, relax, God has not forgotten His promise to you. Luke 2:52 (And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man). Jesus Christ increased, you shall increase also, in the name of Jesus. The promises of God are for his sons and daughters, His hand is stretched towards you now, he wants you to become his son or daughter. so, don´t keep him waiting, hurry up and accept him by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

DESTROYING SATANIC MANIPULATION

Satanic manipulation is real but more real is our victory in Christ Jesus. Only those who are in Christ have the power to destroy this manipulation of the wicked. There are two major ways among others that Satan uses to manipulate people's destiny; 1) self affliction; that is Satan using you against yourself (Luke 19:15-24), 2) through satanic agents. 

Luke 19:20 (And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin: 21 For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow. 22 And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow: 23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury? 24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds).

The agenda of the devil is to keep you away from your throne by using you against yourself. How would explain the logic behind a servant who went and hid his talent under the ground waiting for his master to come back so that he could return it exactly as he was given; it does not make sense. That means all those years that he was not multiplying his gift he was living in hunger and lack. Jesus Christ tags this set of believers as a wicked servant. Satan has mastered the act of turning the wisdom of many into foolishness but you will not be his victim, in Jesus name. He knew he could not take away the man's gift but he convinced him to  bury it on the ground with his own hand; that servant actually thought he was the wisest among his fellow servants. I am so sure he was mocking the others that they allowed themselves to be used. Meanwhile he was the foolish one and the others were the wisest. This is the plight of many believers today; suddenly after dominion has been conferred to them they forgot where they are coming from. Grace to remember your root receive it, in Jesus name

Our second example is Haman and Mordercai: Haman was an agent planted by Satan in the palace to destroy the children of God. He covers the glory of Mordercai and covers all his good deeds that would have earned him a position in the palace. He manipulated his star and was shining in the place of Mordacai. How did I know? Mordecai uncovered a plan that was meant to eliminate the king but nothing was done to honour him in return instead the wicked Haman was there receiving all the glory. When somebody is hating you without any visible reason; there is more to his or her action that is still not known to you; be careful of such and guard your destiny. Subconsciously his spiritman knows that Haman has been stealing the glory that belongs to him. But after the 3 days prayer and fasting proclaimed by queen Esther the veil over the heart of the king was removed and he remembered Mordecai. You need to take a spiritual responsibility in order to destroy satanic manipulation. The scripture says this kind goeth not but with prayer and fasting(Matthew 17:21); I see you taking spiritual responsibility that will dethrone your Haman, in Jesus name. Maybe your contribution toward the success of that organisation you are working for goes unrewarded because some Haman is taking the rewards of your contribution or has kept the file away from the management. I have good news for you, that Haman shall be disgraced and you will get your promotion, in Jesus name.

Esther 6:1 On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king. 2 And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus. 3 And the king said, What honour and dignity hath been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king's servants that ministered unto him, There is nothing done for him. 4 And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king's house, to speak unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him. 5 And the king's servants said unto him, Behold, Haman standeth in the court. And the king said, Let him come in. 6 So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself?

Haman has perfected a plan to put a final nail on the coffin he prepared for Mordecai but God buried him in the coffin that he had prepared with his own hand. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I decree final judgement upon your Haman. You that are reading this message, i don't know who has been manipulating your promotion but i see God opening the book of remembrance in your favour, in Jesus name. Satan himself will hold a ladder for your lifting, in Jesus name; your enemy will commit sucide because of the humiliation he will receive for stealing from you, in the name of Jesus; they will hug live wire because of you. Mordecai was a genuine lover of God; he was not seeking self deliverance, he was concerned about the welfare of the children of God in that province and himself was delivered in the process without even knowing that he had been under manipulation of the wicked. Esther 4:1 (When Mordecai perceived all that was done, Mordecai rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth with ashes, and went out into the midst of the city, and cried with a loud and a bitter cry; 2 And came even before the king's gate: for none might enter into the king's gate clothed with sackcloth). He did all of the above in order to get Queen Esther´s attention to help in persuading the king to reverse his decree against the destruction of the Jew which Haman had perfected. God says in Matthew 6:33 (But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you). Friends, that is how to destroy satanic manipulation; as you make a decision to make God and the interest of his Kingdom your priority your deliverance is guaranteed, in Jesus name. No matter how you claim to love God, if you don't accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour, your reward will just be here on earth but your eternity is not guaranteed. To secure eternity in heaven you need to confess Christ as your saviour; so, take a bold step and pray this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

YOUR DOMINION CITIES

You are not an ordinary person, you a king and you are a queen ordained to reign here on earth; this earth we are living in is vast and every child of God has a portion giving to him by God to reign but many have abandon their dominion cities while some are not even aware that they have cities with their name written on it; this is a very sad situation. You are redeemed as the heir of salvation (Hebrews 1:14), your new birth came with your dominion right, no child of God is empty; he gave to everyone according to their capability but the ability to make it work and multiply your cities depend on you. Ask yourself, what happened to my cities; who is ruling there now, am I still in control. Jesus says you are going to be your own judge. Some have hid their city under the ground by themselves but guess what you will be asked to account for all your transactions and you will pay with tears and cry.

Luke 19:15 And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. 16 Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds. 17 And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities. 18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds. 19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities. 20 And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin: 21 For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow. 22 And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow: 23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury? 24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.

 

The blessing of God upon our lives is for us to bear fruit, and multiply, and replenish it, and to subdue the enemies and rule in our dominion cities. Many have overused their blessing without replenishment forgetting that we are ordained to move from glory to glory (2 Corinthians 3:18). One may ask, but Nene, what is the dominion city that you are talking about. You are a king and you are to rule in the area of your endeavour; that call is your portion allotted to you by your heavenly father. You have a throne with your name written on it; Haman was occupying the throne alloted to Mordecai, his commitment to the things of God dethrone Haman (Esther 4-6). I don´t know who has hijacked your throne but your continued commitment to obey God's instruction will dethrone him, in the name of Jesus. You are a king and you have a kingdom and you are expected to conquer more kingdoms as you continue in the journey. Just like the children of Israel; God told them that He has given the land and the kingdom of the  kings of Canaan to them and that they should contend with them in battles. I don't know who is occupying your dominion city; it is time to contend with him in battle and collect what belongs to you. God expects you to make profit with your gift; He is a businessman and we His children are to approach the world with a business mentality if not we will not make good of our talent. Authorities are in levels; they are delivered to you according to the level of your diligence, commitment, faithfulness and obedience to God's instruction. What you need to multiply your dominion cities has been deposited inside of you. God does not waste resources if you are not capable he will not commit so much into your hand. So, friends, quit complaining and go ahead and conquer more cities. Mordecai does not need physical ammunition to defeat Haman, he uses what God has deposited in him and his position was changed from gate man to his original state. He loves God and his people; he hates evil and injustice. He was a selfless man. Esther 4:1 (When Mordecai perceived all that was done, Mordecai rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth with ashes, and went out into the midst of the city, and cried with a loud and a bitter cry; 2 And came even before the king's gate: for none might enter into the king's gate clothed with sackcloth). The question still remains, ask yourself; am I in the right position, who am I truly? Your genuine answer will pave the way for your true identity to manifest, in Jesus name. In case you have not aligned yourself with God, quickly do that by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

FREEDOM FROM ADDICTION

Proverbs 31:1 The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him. (2 What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows? 3 Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings. 4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink: 5 Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgement of any of the afflicted. 6 Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts).

Revelation 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

Satan has mastered the act of making people forget their true identity because if you are fully conscious of who you are in redemption he would not be able to steal from you(John 10:10). He makes kings forget that they are wearing a crown so that he can pollute it; a polluted crown cannot attract the glory of God. He wants to get you to disobey God but he cannot do it except he first of all makes you forget the law by getting you addicted to strong drink and substance or carried away by some other activities that do not glorify God. When you are out of the lines as a royal citizen you have made those things you give your attention to as your god. Addiction is a controlling power, it takes over peoples judgemental power and begins to control their action in order to satisfy its desire. It is a satanic weapon against man; many are addicted to different things and not only strong drinks or drugs; anything that is strong enough to change your willpower is an addiction. Some are controlled by money, Please don´t get me wrong money is good but when your love for money is taking the place of God in your heart then it has become your idol. When you allow your love for material things to control your judgement and how you treat people and transaction then you are polluting your crown. You will soon lose it. 1 Timothy 6:10 (For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. 11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness). Jesus Christ did not say you should not love things but he said you should not love them more than you love God; that is, they should not take the place of God in your life. Exodus 20:5 (Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me); God want to be number one and center of attention in your life; whatever takes your attention from Him has become an addiction, an idol. Matthew 16:26 (For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul)? The commandment of God is not to punish us rather is to help us maintain and keep our crown. Your soul is more important to God than every other thing. He values your fellowship with Him more than everything else and that is why He sacrificed His only begotten son in order to have you and me. He said we should make Him a priority in our lives and then He will give us every other thing we need in abundance including riches (Matthew 6:33).

The royals are known to be highly disciplined, they don't act foolishly except when they are under the influence of something and that is exactly what strong drinks do to people. They are no longer conscious of who they are and what they represent in society. Society has a high expectation of us, they are calculating our errors. That is why in the world today if a believer makes a mistake, there will be noise abroad and you will hear the unbeliever saying but you said you are christian. When you act foolishly you are making mockery of your God and you are going to be punished for your foolishness. You are God's representative and you can´t misrepresent Him and expect a reward. The spirit of God inside of you has the capacity to intoxicate you and you don't need any other intoxicator. Acts 2:13 (Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine. 15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day. 16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; 17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God,I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams):

Job 29:12 (Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him. 13 The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy). Friends, remember in our anchor scripture above, strong wine is to be given to those who are ready to perish; ask yourself; am I ready to perish? Be like Job who values his crown and made righteousness his royal robe and in return God transferred the blessing of the drunkard to him and he became the richest man in the East. God rewards those who respect and obey his commandment; and I see Him rewarding you, In Jesus mighty name. If you don't want God to transfer your blessings to another person, then disconnect yourself from strong drink and get yourself cleansed by the power in the blood of Jesus and the word of God. Our freedom lies in the word of God; as you get addicted to His word from today, your freedom will be established, in Jesus name. Addicted kings are likely to pervert the law and twist things around to hurt those who they are meant to protect; Satan will begin to rule through them instead of God. Love God and you will be free; be loyal to Him and protect your crown so that you will not gnash teeth on the last day. Friends, now that you are fully aware of who you are in redemption and what you set to lose if you stay out of the lines; it is time to examine yourself to see if you are with God. in case you have missed it somewhere; now, is the right time to align yourself with your maker by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus name

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.
