TOPIC:  PULL DOWN THAT MOUNTAIN.  MONDAY JULY 31
TEXT:  EXODUS 14:10-16
KEY VERSE:“Arise; for this matter belongeth unto thee: we also will be with thee: be of good courage, and do it.” (Ezra 10:4).

Patience and endurance are things encouraged in the Christian life. Hence a believer facing some difficulties in life may encourage himself to be patient and endure more. However, you need to examine the matter well. It may be possible you are expected to do something about the problem. You may be waiting and enduring in your problem due to your ignorance, fear, indetermination or laziness. Find out within yourself; may be the Holy Spirit is stirring some spiritual provocations within you against that problem. The Holy Spirit may be telling you: “What is required is action to be taken.”

In our memory verse (Ezra 10:4), Ezra was the appropriate person to initiate action. Both God and men were waiting for him and would support him. All he needed was fearlessness, courage and action. This may be your situation. Arise for action and heaven shall support you and others will be blessed by you. Jesus revealed that believers are imparted with power to triumph over Satan and his evil kingdom. This power is in the strongest and weakest Christian. The Lord has given you the power to tread upon Satan and his evil forces and overcome them. Arise and face them and remove them out of your way. “And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you” (Luke 10:18-19.)
    
Jesus cursed a fig tree and it dried up from the roots. He exhorted His disciples to have faith in God. Every believer should face his mountain with the command of faith. His decrees shall be established by the living God. Decree against your difficulties and God shall establish it. “Call upon me in the day of trouble.” There is a day called the day of trouble … trouble in your heart, body, marriage, family, work place, business, school, relationship, society. In the day of trouble, you are not to be afraid, confused, in pains or threatened. All you need do is to call upon God and he will give you a testimony.
  
In our reading text, the enemies were pursuing after the children of Israel. The Red Sea was before them. They were greatly afraid. But God said they should “Go forward.”  God told Moses to lift up the rod and stretch it over the sea and divide it. The children of Israel crossed the sea on dry ground. Their enemies perished by the waters of the sea. Do not listen to the fears in your mind, to the noise of discouragement ... Go forward. Lift up the rod of prayer and stretch the rod of faith over your problems and they shall part from you through intervention of God, holding to His word, employing the name of Jesus and confession of your salvation.

Thought for the Day:  With faith you can move mountains.
Song for the Day: We are soldiers …. By the name of Jesus, we shall conquer
Bible reading for the day: Psalm 62-64; Romans 1

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
