USE THE NAME OF JESUS NOW

 "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him." (Colossians 3:17) 

God created human beings to have authority over everything He made. That’s why after creating Adam and Eve, He told them these words. Genesis 1:28 says:

"God blessed them and said to them, ‘Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.’" 


This statement is written in plural form, meaning that both man and woman were given authority. Your gender is not a barrier to success. However, after Adam and Eve disobeyed God, they lost that power and authority.

Jesus Christ came to restore that authority. In Revelation 5:12, the 24 elders sang a song to Jesus, saying:
"Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and blessing!" Also, in Matthew 28:18, Jesus said: "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me." 

Today's scripture tells us to "do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus." This means we should use the authority and power in Jesus' name to accomplish what we desire. The name of Jesus is powerful in every area of life—not just in prayers.

Speak success and blessings over your work in the name of Jesus so you can be fruitful and increase. Whenever you face challenges, declare victory over them using the name of Jesus, and you will overcome.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank You for giving me the authority to use Your name. Today, I declare blessings and success in everything I do, in Jesus' name. Amen.

THE TIME TO RECEIVE THE FRUITS OF YOUR LABOUR IS NOW

  “Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, For they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Isaiah 3:10 NKJV This is a powerful word of hope as you begin this month.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

DO NOT COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS

  "I know what it is to be poor or to have plenty, and I have lived under all kinds of conditions. I know what it means to be full or to be hungry, to have too much or too little. Philippians 4:12 CEV" God’s purpose for humankind is for everyone to succeed, but each person has their own season. Just as each flower blooms in its own time, each of us has a time set by God. When that season comes, God will make you prosper. Until then, keep praying and working hard, trusting in His timing. When you look at your peers, former classmates, family members, or others in your age group and see their success, it’s easy to start comparing. Maybe a friend just built a new house or got a high-paying job, or perhaps someone you know is getting married. If you feel like you’ve achieved more, you may feel good about yourself. But if you feel like you’re still “behind,” it’s easy to feel discouraged and inadequate. This is where your perspective can become distorted. Some people think they ar...
