The vast potentialities of the creative ability of God in us has not been recognised thus not been developed. The unsearchable riches that has deposited in us in Christ is never recognised. It’s just like we are thirsty and standing near a well full of water.The word of God helps us to develop faith that draws all that we need from our source of supply – Jesus. Grace provides and faith takes it.
Having a great time during this 10 days fasting prayer. Today I will teach on financial breakthroughs. Grace has provided and by faith we will enjoy it. You can watch it live at HFTV in our site or download our app.

Colossians 3: 15,16 says” And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord”. God wants His peace to rule in our hearts.The Word of Christ should dwell in us richly. It is not our prayers that give us peace but the Word of God in us. That is the reason why the devil tries to steal the Word from our hearts. God refers to the Word as seed because it has life and it grows and bears fruit. Just like a seed, the Word also has a growth process. Mark 4:28 talks about the process of the growth like this- ” For the earth yields crops by itself: first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head”.So the seed needs time to grow and the bible says that those who inherited the promises of God inherited those by faith and patience.
While we wait for the seed to grow, there is a very crucial thing that we need to do. We must PROTECT THE WORD IN US!
Let me tell you how you can protect the sown Word:
1. The devil will try to show you negative situations so that you will focus on that and not on the Word. Eventually you will end up speaking what you see and not what the Word says and your own words will cancel the sown Word.
2. A good relationship with Jesus who Himself is the Word will increase your trust in the Word and that makes the seeds rooted and they will grow stronger.
3. Hurts caused by people can steal the Word from you because when you speak offensive things, seeds of bitterness and fear will grow alongside. And we should decide which seed should grow in us.
4. Ephesians 4:29 says “Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers”. Yes! Our own words can choke the sown Word in us.
5. Sometimes the world will become more attractive to you, and the world will seem more fast. The Word takes time for the results to be obvious but it is very rich. It is so rich that it will grow in us in such a way that we will lend to nations. The devil will try to make us panic but the bible says in 1 Peter 5:6,7,8 like this – “Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.
6. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour”. Let me make one thing very clear to you . The devil cannot touch us. He walks about like a lion to steal the sown Word from us. Protect the Word in you! When you hear anything contrary to the Word, resist and reject it!!
7. 1Thessalonians 2:13 says,” For this reason we also thank God without ceasing, because when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you welcomed it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which also effectively works in you who believe”.
When you hear His Word, receive it, believe it and protect it!
We have to protect the Word for it to grow and bear fruit. God bless you!

When God created Adam & Eve, He gave them the authority to rule and to reign but that authority was stolen from them by Satan through deception. Later, when Jesus came as the Last Adam, He came as a perfect man, disarmed and defeated Satan at the Cross and delivered us out of darkness and conveyed us into God’s Kingdom. Now all authority has been given to us and he cannot oppose us. He is no match for you. So he can’t even look at you or touch you but he can do one thing – shift the focus of your mind from the WORD to the world. He does not fear a person who prays, but he fears a person who trusts in God’s Word. Jesus and His Word are the same. His Word gives us tremendous peace and His peace rules in our hearts. That is why the devil tries to steal the Word from our hearts where it is sown.
Mark 4:15 says, “And these are the ones by the wayside where the Word is sown. When they hear, Satan comes immediately and takes away the Word that was sown in their hearts”. Jesus refers to the Word as a seed. Why do you think the Word is called a seed? The Word has life and so does a seed. When a seed is sown, it doesn’t become a plant the very next day. Same is with the promises of God. The Bible says that the promises of God are inherited through faith and patience. God gave us seed (the Word) instead of a fruit because the seed can sprout and grow to bear plenty of fruits and we can enjoy those fruits forever. The growth of the seed might appear slow but it will never fail because Jesus Himself is the surety of the New Covenant.
Mark 4:15 says that the seed is sown in our hearts. It is not enough to be just hearers of the Word. We need to receive the Word and protect the seed that is sown in our hearts and then the sown Word will lead us to an intimate relationship with Jesus. You cannot trust someone’s words unless you know the person. Likewise, a personal relationship with Jesus will help you trust in His Word. So, receive the Word and spend time with Jesus who is the Word so that you will be fruitful. God bless you!

It is very important to understand the revelation of the Word in order to avoid reading the Bible as any other book. Without the revelation of the Word we can hear sermons or read the Bible but Christ will never be revealed in our lives. Israel had very good knowledge of the Word but they never recognized Jesus when He came. Same is the case of a Christian who reads the Bible without the help of the Holy Spirit and is eventually not able to fulfill the calling of God in his life. God doesn’t want us to depend on human knowledge but instead He wants us to operate on the faith that He has given us – the faith to move mountains! The Bible says that the faith that God has invested in us is immeasurable and we who have that faith are unstoppable. It is already in us and God wants us to use it for His purpose in us. That is why righteousness and faith work hand-in-hand.
Righteousness is the boldness that God has given us so that we can have fellowship with Him. God has not set any limits in the lives of those who are baptized into Christ and there is no natural law that will not submit to us.This is the reality of the Word of God!
Do you know to what extent miracles can happen in your lives? It can happen to the extent that you believe! For this we need the revelation of the Word because the revelation of the Word breaks all the limitations that we ourselves have set in our minds. We limited ourselves by not seeing us the way God saw us. The truth is, we were actually limiting God. But can you and I limit God? Yes! We can limit Him in our lives by not having fellowship with Him.
1 Cor 1:9 says ” God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord”. Called us into the fellowship by making us as righteous as Him and Ephesians 4:24 says that we were created in righteousness and holiness like Him. Paul says in Ephesians 3:8 that the unsearchable riches of Christ is now in the Gentiles. Jesus is Grace and He gave Grace. The finished work of Jesus is grace for grace and we know that grace is what we don’t deserve. Do we deserve to sit with God in heaven? We don’t, but grace provided a seat for us in heaven with God.
Now why did God do that for us ? He did it so that He could share His heart with us. And for this He made us holy and righteous like Him as it is written in Ephesians 4: 20. The optimum was God and He gave it to us so that we could boldly have fellowship with Him. He is the Vine and we are the branches. He made us one with Him so that His life, His glory and all His goodness could flow into us. Then all the lack will be wiped away and we will be fruitful in every good work. No one will see the Vine. They will only see the fruit in us. They will see the fruit – our boldness and the authority in our words. The world will not see God but they will see God manifested in you and they will recognize God in you!! Like how it was when Jesus walked on this earth, the world will be astonished when they see you because you have the same mandate as Jesus when you walk in fellowship with God. People will be amazed at the authority in your words . Your words will burn in them and you can boldly say ” I am born from above!”.
When we fellowship with God, He implements in our lives the very purpose that was in His heart according to His original plan of creation. He executes this today through His church. In His original plan, He wanted to fill the whole world with His glory and He does it today by manifesting His glory in you and me. What a glorious display you and I are!!
Today we are the display of God on earth!
You are His family! You are the child of God on earth! You are the bride of Christ ! You are His all in all !
God has made us His co-workers. Let us fellowship with Christ and manifest His glory wherever we go!

Hebrews 10; 35 says,” Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward”. Confidence plays a big role in everyone’s lives irrespective of whether one is a believer or not . Every believer needs this confidence to enjoy the promises given in the bible. Being confident that by His stripes you are healed, gives you healing. Jesus expects us to live in the rest that He has given His children and to abide in that rest, we need confidence in God.

Philipppians 1:6 says,”being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ; “. When? The good work He has started in us is before the foundation of the World. If the work He started in us before the foundation of the World is ‘good’, then the end will be far greater! Yes! We must be confident in our Lord and in His Word. Our minds and the world always try to put our confidence down but no such thoughts can pull us down if we have that confidence. The Word says that that confidence has a great reward.

Now, how can we keep this confidence always?

1- Let’s take a look at Romans 12:2 where it says,”And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God”. We should be transformed by the renewing of our minds. Our minds should always be transformed by aligning it to the Word and it’s promises for us. The very knowledge of who you are in Christ builds your confidence and that confidence transforms your mind. A successor of great wealth will only have knowledge of what he has given if he reads, understands and has knowledge on what he was been given by his predecessor and this knowledge on what he has transform his mind to live differently and wisely.

2-The knowledge that Jesus had about Himself gave Him the confidence to sleep amidst a storm and all He had to do was to speak and the peace in Him subdued the storm. So, Jesus spoke and the miracle happened. Sameway, we too need to speak and confess the Word and our minds that are transformed by the Word will be precipitated outside when we speak.

3-The next thing we need to do is, meditate on the Word of God. 1Timothy 4:15 says, “Meditate on these things; give yourself entirely to them, that your progress may be evident to all”. Meditating on your problems cause worries but meditating on His Word can transform your minds and you will be confident of who you are and eventually you will confess only that. This will make you unshakeable! Tell your mind, “I don’t believe you, I believe only the Word of God!”Do you know the result of that? You will possess what you confess and you can confess only what you have in your mind – the mind that is transformed by His Word.
So, let us not lose our confidence in the Lord and in His Word! God bless you!

Under law, justification is a reward for my work. Under grace justification is a free gift based on my faith and trust on the finished work of Jesus for me. (Romans.4.1-5)
 
Under law, my righteousness and hence my blessing is based on my work and my performance. Under grace, my righteousness and hence my blessing is based on the work of Jesus on the cross for me where I put my faith and trust. (see Romans. 11.30-33)
 
Under law, I have to use my own strength to obey the commandments and deal with sin. Under grace, God helps me with the power of the Holy Spirit to live and deal with sin. ( Hebrews 8. 8-10)
 
Under law, sin had dominion over me because I was dealing with sin with my own strength.  Under grace, I have dominion over sin through the power given by Jesus which is the power of the Holy Spirit.
 
Under law, I was trying to live a good life with my strength and was failing to. Under grace, I died and Jesus is living in me a good life. Now I say “it is not I that liveth, but the one in me”. The glory goes to Him and Him alone. (Galatians 2.20) 

Under law, I try to keep myself away from sin because I fear judgment. Under grace, I do not sin because I do not want to sin as I am caught by the love of Jesus. I have victory through His love! (Romans8.31-37)
 
Under law, I was trying to find fault with my brother when he sins. Under grace I feel pity on him and can help him to come back as I know I too am standing only because of grace. (Galatians 6.1; James 5.19,20)
 
Under law, guilt dominates me when I have a failure and it take away my boldness to stand before God and against satan. Under grace I dominate sin and guilt and can stand boldly before God and against Satan. (Hebrews 4.14-16)
Also under grace, I have a life of reigning on this earth where as under law I am reigned by guilt and condemnation. ( Romans 5.17)
 
Under law I take care and fail. Under grace God take care and win. I am free. 
 
Under law at last I say to myself that my strength is not sufficient for me to overcome my weakness. Under grace I always hear God says to me  ” My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness…” (2 Corinthians 12:9 KJV)
 
When trusting on my own works of the law, I have reason to boast. But when justified by the grace of God, I have nothing to boast; but only to give thanks to the Lord. ( Ephesians 2.8,9)
 
Under law, I take all the glory as it is my work, a glory which is fading away. Under grace all glory goes to God and He fills me with His glory which is unfading. I glorifies Him and He glorifies me with His glory. (2Corinthians 3.5-18)
 
Law makes me serious where as grace makes me joyous as I am free. ( Galatians 5.1 )
 
Law reveals sin but it is weak to deal with it. Grace produces thankfulness and love to God which is powerful enough to help me overcome sin. (Galatians 3.23,24; Hebrews 10.3,4)
 
Under law, I am sin conscious; but under grace I am love conscious. 
 
Under law, I put each step with utmost care but fail most of the times. Under grace I walk freely by believing on the Lord as I am not walking my own but He is making me walk in the right path. ( Romans 7.14-25)
 
Under law I am bound by sin and I take revenge as the law says ‘eye for an eye’ and ‘tooth for a tooth’. Until I revenge I have no peace. Under grace, as I am free from sin I am at peace even when I take no revenge. Instead I am free to do good and bless someone who do bad to me. Sin is not deciding what I should do. I have self control and can take my own decision to do good as the Holy Spirit is controlling me ! 
Oh Jesus through His great grace made me free!!

1 Peter 2:9 says, “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light“.

The above verse very clearly states who we are and where we are in Christ. God has called us from darkness into His marvelous light to proclaim His works. But how can we proclaim His works? We can proclaim His works by reflecting God’s goodness in our lives and thus being a sign to the world that Jesus is alive. A person who is in Christ is already in the Kingdom of God. Whenever the Word says ‘in Christ’, it is about us, the Church. The church has already entered the Kingdom of God.

Jesus always spoke about the Kingdom of God and His teachings reveal how glorious it is to be in the Kingdom. Contrary to many teachings, Jesus never mentions anything about any famine or lack in His Kingdom, instead, the Word says that we are blessed and the blessings are in all the aspects like health, wealth, emotions, relationships and every other area of our lives. The word ‘blessing’ doesn’t refer to financial blessings alone. Financial blessing is only a fraction of the blessings in Christ. We are chosen by God Almighty to be a part of His Kingdom and to be a holy nation. To be successful and victorious here on earth while we live in the Kingdom of God, there are few things we need to follow:

1. Forget your past and don’t hold on to it.
2. Since we are called from darkness to light we should walk according to God’s plan. Our lives should not be controlled by the opinions and advices of those around us. We should be led by the Holy Spirit.
3. Since we are a royal priesthood we must rule as a king, pray for others (standing as a priest between God and man), and confess good confessions and prophecy into our lives as a prophet.
What a privilege it is to be GOD’S SPECIAL PEOPLE ! God bless you!

“And He said to them, “Go into all the world and PREACH the GOSPEL to every creature.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭16:15‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

The Love of our Master echoes through those words. Those words have led millions to preach the gospel over the millennia . That one word “Go” has all the power to take care of every need for accomplishing His purpose. Needless to say, that all the billions ever spent on missions, crusades, travel, resources etc have come from that one word “Go”.

Many of us want to know what the will of God in our lives is. It has been pretty clear from the beginning . It was to preach the Gospel, heal the sick and to cast out Demons.
Some might say, I’m stuck to a desk job, what’s the will of God there? It is to do your Job, Preach the Gospel, Heal the sick and Cast out Demons.
You are into business ? Do your business , Preach the Gospel, Heal the sick and Cast out Demons.
Are you a homemaker? Take care of your house, Preach the Gospel, Heal the sick and Cast out Demons.
Are you a Teacher? Teach your students , Preach the Gospel, Heal the sick and Cast out Demons.

When you take His great commission as your own, He will take care of your needs as His own. When He starts to take care it will be in His standards – exceedingly , abundantly more than you can ask or imagine.
