The Surest Way To Abundance



Do you desire increase in life? Have you done all you could to live in abundance and yet to no avail? Health, riches and long life are not exclusive to a few set of people, they are available for all to enjoy. The question is how do you access them to enjoy their benefits? This post exposes the surest way to access increase and abundance.

Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us. God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him. (Psalms 67:5-7 KJV)

But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel. (Psalms 22:3 KJV)

I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. (1Corinthians 3:6 KJV)

You may have done so many things to enjoy abundance and increase on every side: hard work, confessions and declarations, fasting and praying and yet you have no testimony to show for it. I have good news for you, there is a sure way to enjoy abundance.

Praise unto God is the surest way to a life of good health, riches and long life. It is the key to an overflowing prosperity. God is the source of ever increasing abundance and praise is the key to His presence, Psalm 100:1-4. God always dwells in your praise unto Him, Psalm 22:3.

The scriptures in Psalm 67:5-7 make us to understand that the earth will not yield her increase until praises go up to God. Also, God's blessings will not follow you until you praise God.

Praise is like you watering your seeds sown to have a harvest: your seeds of hard work, faithfulness, prayers, tithes and offerings, and sacrifices. Until your plants receive adequate supply of water, your desire of abundant harvest is merely a dream. So also until you give God quality praise, acceptable unto Him, your desire for abundance is just a mere dream. This is because God only gives the increase, 1 Corinthians 3:6.

The 3 Success Assets You Must Have This Year

What assets must you acquire this year to enjoy a successful life? As you prepare to take giant steps towards a most fruitful year, there is need for you acquire the things that really matter for indelible success. How you start truly determines your end result. This posts gives the three assets you must possess to have a glorious year ahead.

But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison – Genesis 39:21 (KJV)

And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favor in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown on her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti – Esther 2:17 (KJV)

That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus – Ephesians 2:7 (KJV)

What you have within you determines what you have outside you. The qualities you carry determine the quality of your experience and results. And when these qualities are of God you are assured of great exploits.
In my studies and meditations I discovered that what one desperately needs to succeed in life is basically the mercy, favour and grace of God. These three assets will take you to any height of success in life you may desire.

Mercy
The mercy of God alleviates distress and shows compassion on offenders. As long as you are on earth, the enemy will always put stumbling blocks before you, and a cry of mercy God will never overlook. He will always deliver His children from  them that are stronger than they are – Psalm 35:10. Many times too we err and it is the mercy of God that delivers us from the punishment that we rightly deserve.

Joseph enjoyed the mercy of God. When the enemy planned to pull him down and destroy his destiny, God intervened, showed him mercy and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison – Genesis 39:21.

You Are Not An Island


How bad were you hurt last year that you have chosen to be alone, an island? How do you think that you can make it as an Island for the twelve months of this New Year? God did not make you an Island, so you can never succeed as one. This article aims at confirming to you that you are not an Island.

And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him - Genesis 2:18 (KJV)

But now has God set the members every one of them in the body, as it has pleased him. And if they were all one member, where were the body? But now are they many members, yet but one body. And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of you: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. No, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary - 1 Corinthians 12:18-22 (KJV)

For by wise counsel you shall make your war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety - Proverbs 24:6 (KJV)

I am the vine, you are the branches: He that stays in me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit: for without me you can do nothing - John 15:5 (KJV)

Oh mine, people hurt me a lot last year and I will not give anybody the opportunity to do so again, NOT THIS YEAR! I can imagine how you feel. It truly can be painful to be hurt by people, especially by those you least expect to hurt you. But that shouldn't make you an Island, nobody is worth it!

God made Adam and put him in the best place ever with all the food and beauty you can think of, gave him sole authority to name all the animals and to manage the place. But God Himself for the first time in His creation, considered Adam's being alone as not being good - Genesis 2:18. He had to make a perfect match to complement Adam: Eve. Read more...

Have Mercy On Me This New Year.


A new year, a new beginning; the old year has gone and a fresh start has just begun! What does this year have for you and how can you tap into the best it has for you? It will take the mercy and favour of God to enjoy the goodies of this year. This article tells you how to tap into the mercies of God and cry out, "oh God, have mercy on me"

O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endures forever. To him who alone does great wonders: for his mercy endures forever. To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endures for ever - Psalm 136:3-5 (KJV)

You shall arise, and have mercy on Zion: for the time to favor her, yes, the set time, is come - Psalm 102:13 (KJV)

But I have trusted in your mercy; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation - Psalm 13:5 (KJV)

Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy endures for ever - Psalm 118:4 (KJV)

A new year has finally come, and whatever was the outcome of last year now has an opportunity to have a fresh start and have a better outcome. But you will require the mercies of God not to be consumed - Lamentations 3:22

The flesh is prone to errors but the Lord's mercies prevail over judgment - James 2:13. The accuser of brethren, the devil, is ever ready to accuse you (Revelations 12:10) and remind God of His word. Therefore, you need God's mercies upon your life to be steps ahead of your accuser.

God's mercy is the reason why you were not consumed last year. The enemy meant last year to be full of misery for you but the Lord's mercy prevailed. You need to depend on God's mercy and consciously seek it this year. The enemy will surely gather against you but the mercy of God will cause them to fall for your sake- Isaiah 54:15.

The Receipt For Your Redemption

Are you loosing in your battles with the enemy? What do you have to show for your redemption? I have good news for you - the blood of Jesus is your receipt for your redemption! It is what you present to claim your goods from the enemy. This post gives the virtues of the blood covenant and how you can use it to overcome satan.

Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost has made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he has purchased with his own blood - Acts 20:28 (KJV, emphasis mine)

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace - Ephesians 1:7 (KJV)

And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives to the death - Revelations 12:11 (KJV)

Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing - Revelations 5:12 (KJV)

The blood of Jesus shed on the cross is the seal of our redemption and victory over the enemy. The blood of the covenant reconciled us back to God (Colossians 1:20) and restored all that the enemy stole from us. If the princes of this world knew the plan of God concerning Christ's blood, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory - 1 Corinthians 2:8

The virtues of Christ's blood

1.    Redemption - Christ redeemed you by His shed blood - Ephesians 1:7. Adam, the first man, sold us to the devil when he disobeyed God and obey the devil. And since then, humanity entered into bondage under the control of the enemy - Galatians 5:1. But Jesus, by His shed blood on the cross purchased you back. Also, your sins were forgiven and forgotten by God according to the riches of His grace - Jeremiah 31:34

2.    Sanctification - The blood of the covenant sanctified you - Hebrews 10:29. It made you pure and free from sin. You became new creature in Christ, old things were passed away and now all things have become new - 2 Corinthians 5:17. You stand before God as though you had not sinned by the blood of Jesus.

No Thirst In The Desert

Do you feel led into wilderness by God? Are you afraid of obeying God because of the desert ahead of you? I have good news for you; the Lord who made the dry places knows how to bring out water from them. This article is to encourage you to walk with God through the desert without fear.

They thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out. (Isaiah 48:21 KJV)

And I have led you forty years in the wilderness: your clothes are not waxen old upon you, and thy shoe is not waxen old upon thy foot. (Deuteronomy 29:5, KJV)

And he said unto them, when I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye anything? And they said, nothing. (Luke 22:35 KJV)

Many people desire to fulfill the plan of God for their lives but they are afraid of stepping out of their comfort zones. The desert or wilderness life they foresee is scaring them away from God's perfect plan for them. They see a life with little or no provisions, uncivilized conditions and a life of solitude;    and they struggle with the uncertainty of tomorrow.

If you are in such a state and you walk uprightly, relax for when you are led by God you will lack no good thing - Psalm 84:11. God will never send you without providing for you - Philippians 4:19. He will never leave you nor forsake you - Hebrews 13:5. He will always go before you and make the crooked places straight - Isaiah 45:2

When God led the Israelites through the desert, they had food and water in abundance. He provided these from unimaginable sources: water from a rock, wind blowing in quails and manna descending from heaven; amazing I must say! Read more...

Pit To Prison To Palace!



Does it seem as if life is moving from pit to prison for you or from better to worse? And the scriptures seem not to be fulfilled in your life? I have good news for you; you may be on your way to the palace! This article is to encourage you on the journey to your promised land.

But the path of the just is like the shining sun, that shines ever brighter unto the perfect day – Proverbs 4:18 NKJV)

We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed – 2 Corinthians 4:8-9 (NKJV)

And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope – Romans 5:3-4 (NKJV)

The scriptures say in Proverbs 4:18 that every day should be better than yesterday but you see that sometimes it seems not to be so. Is it not supposed to be so for a Christian? It should be so for every Christian believer. 

You need to recognize that though physically, your path may not be brighter, spiritually it is so. The spiritual realm governs the physical and once the spiritual realm is brighter, the physical will soon become brighter. Read more...
