ENGAGING THE GREATEST CONQUEROR FOR YOUR BATTLES

Text Rev. 19:12-14

 12  His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
 13  And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
 14  And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

Beloved, let me introduce you to one awesome personality. He's the strongest being in the universe and all realms.  He's called THE WORD OF GOD. The word of God carries the power of God. In John 1:1-3 we learn that He's God and all things were made by Him. In Heb. 1:3, we are told that the word of God is that by which He sustains all things. The word of God is the captain of the host of heaven. All the angels in heaven are under His command. In Psalms 103:20 we see that the angels who excel in might hearken to the Voice of the Word of God.

Can you see that the Word of God is all powerful? Nothing can resist him successfully. No power can withstand him. Now the good news is that this word of God is at your service. He's eager to help you. Are you bound by sickness, death, poverty, sin, habits, e.t.s? The word can save you. In Psalms 107:17-20 we saw that when the children of Israel walked into trouble by breaking the covenant with God, resulting in their  bondages and sickness, the only messenger that God sent was the Word and He did a perfect job. He delivered them from all their destruction. The same word is at your service. If you will only believe, you shall see the salvation of God. Rom 1:16 says [The Word of God] is the power of God giving salvation to everyone who has faith, to the Jew first, and then to the Greek (BBE).

Someone may be saying, how do I get the word of God to work for me? The scriptures says

But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9  That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10  For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11  For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. (Rom 10:8-11)

Believing and confessing the word is the way you can engage His services. If you are still under the dominion if Satan, you need to believed that Jesus died for you and was raised from the dead by God. You also need to confess that He's your Lord and you shall be saved. If you are a Christian and you still experience any opposition no matter the type of battle, situation or challenge, believe the word of God concerning that situation. Confess it, and you will have what you say. Are you sick for example, believe that by the stripes of Jesus you were healed (1Pet 2:24). Keep on saying it and that devil will flee from you.

PRAYER
1. Thank God for his all powerful word

Thank God for making the word available to you

Declare that you believe in Jesus and his spoken word.

Report your challenges to God as if he was not aware of  them

Speak to the challenge and opposition and say, I now believe in the Word of God. I resist you devil by the power of the word of God. I cast you out of my life now in Jesus Name

Confess God's promises that you desire. You can read them out from the scripture.

Now ask that God's word would reign in the Church of Christ, and You country

Pray for me too that I might be a worthy and effective minister of the Word

GO IN THIS THY MIGHT

TEXT: Judges 6:14 And the LORD looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: have not I sent thee? MESSAGE: While Gideon was still sckeptic of ever being able to engage his oposition in battle God gave him the battle instruction. God already told him that His presence with Gideon will ensure his easy victory. But he added one very key instruction that ties up everything together. He said GO IN THIS THY MIGHT What might was the Lord talking about? This might God says is the presence of the Lord by which he will defeat the enemy as though they were just one man (Judges 6:16). The Lord was saying that he should advance against his opposition being strong in the Lord. We shall explore this phrase in a couple of days, but one thing that we must get today is that we must go in the strength of God alone. There is always a tendency to engage your challenges with other forms of strength. It is wrong to engage your challenge...

SEIZE THE MOMENT 2: HOW TO ESCAP JUDGEMENT

Image
TEXT: Luke 23:39-42   39  And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.  40  But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?  41  And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.  42  And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. MESSAGE The malefactor (as he is called in our text) is actually crucified and facing his last moments on earth, he seizes the moment. In one desperate cry he turned the course of his destiny. He is on the brink of everlasting torment in hell. But just before he falls into eternal doom, one sentence saves him. He calls to the Lord. He didn't have the time to weep over his sins and the consequence. He had an audacity of faith and dared to ask for life in paradise. Guess what? He g...

THE MANUAL FOR ETERNAL LIFE

TEXT: 2Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness MESSAGE Most people today, especially in this part of the world, buy appliances and never bother to go through the manual. The result is that they either soon damage the appliance or grossly under utilize it. Someone once bought a very expensive android tablet and all he could do with it was to make and receive calls. he ran everywhere to send e-mails. He spent hours at business centres trying to get his documents typed. Many other things he suffered because he never knew that his tablet could be used to solve all of those issues. In much the same way, when we receive eternal life into our spirits, it will be foolish of us to just assume that we know what to do with it. Just as the wisest thing anybody that bought an applicance would do is to check for the manufacturer's instruction in the manual, so also...
