Welcome to 2024, our Year of PEACE and PROSPERITY! The anchor Scripture is Psalm 122:7, “Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.”

So many prophecies have been released for the year. We are grateful to GOD for speaking to us through His prophets. A number of times, the thought of not releasing a Ministry Note to reveal these things, came to my heart. However, the more I stayed praying, the intense need to show you these things swept through my heart.

This year, GOD is concentrating on His Church! And because we are in a season of judgement, the church of GOD on the earth will have a first and major share of the LORD’S cleansing process this year and beyond. I was privileged to be in a Prayer Camp somewhere in the North and a Word of Knowledge came, “the LORD has released an angel to fight for the church in Nigeria, but the angel does not know where to start because the angel cannot differentiate between what is happening in the church and what is happening outside the church.” This year, the church of GOD will experience a shaking. Many pastors and church leaders and congregants who refuse to turn away from their evil ways will face His anger.

However, it is for good! Jer. 33:8-9 says, “And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me. And it shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and an honour before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them: and they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the prosperity that I procure unto it.” The judgement in 2024 is to purge His Church and to usher in Peace and Prosperity.

This same year, both collectively as the True Church of Jesus and as individual believers, our places of abode and lives will experience the peace of GOD that is unexplainable. This peace will be beyond mental comprehension because things will get worse for the people of the world. We will also enjoy the rich abundance of provisions and financial lavish. People, groups, tribes, organizations and nations who align with the demands of the LORD will enjoy the lavish of Peace and Prosperity.

What Must We Do to Enjoy His Peace and Prosperity?

Psalm 122:6-7, “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, they shall prosper that love thee. Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.”

• Attend to Jerusalem; give your attention to her!
• Pray for Jerusalem; be committed to her spiritual development, don’t abandoned her. Pray for peace to reign in Jerusalem.
• Be affectionate and passionate about her, and you will prosper.
• If you want peace amidst the troubles of this end time, stay within the walls of Jerusalem!
• If you want prosperity in these perilous times, stay in love and commitment to the palaces of Jerusalem!

What is Jerusalem?

Jerusalem signifies the Church of GOD on the earth;

Jerusalem means the place of worship or Kingdom service that GOD has appointed you to stay, not the one you choose and decide to go;

Jerusalem is the geographical location where the LORD has instructed you to stay. That is your Jerusalem.

As the world groans and grumbles in pain, economic hardships, famine and strange attacks, we will experience peace – within and without. We will not be moved by a shortage because we dine directly from the Kitchen of Heaven. We will not lack anything good because the LORD is our Shepherd. Hallelujah!

In order to experience the Peace and Prosperity ordained for 2024;

• Pray for your Jerusalem

Instead of joining the children of satan, to create contents that mock the church because of the present shaking; pray for the Church of GOD. Pray for your Jerusalem. The shaking is for Kingdom good. Pray for your pastors and mentors. Pray for believers and for your Christian communities.

• Love your Jerusalem

Be passionately attached to the place where GOD has planted you to stay and serve Him. Be affectionate towards her. Carry her in your heart. Invest in her. Give to her. Protect her and watch over her. Get jealous about your Jerusalem.

As GOD is pouring out His all to prepare His Bride for the second coming of Christ, focus your attention on seeing to the victory of the Body of Christ. Soak yourself in doing all that GOD has instructed you to do. Then, the LORD will surround you with His Peace and Prosperity.

God bless you. Arise!

Kingdom Greetings to believers and everyone across the nations. No doubt, God has been good to His people and to the human race as a whole. It is evident that God is with us and is helping us in the Progressive Fulfilment of His plans.

June 2023 is our Month of “MY TIME TO RISE” 2 Chron. 23:1-3. Indeed, it is a New Dawn for everyone connected to Jesus Christ, for the LORD shall bring to pass every promise He has made to you. Men and women of reputation and reckon will Rise from far and near to Help You and to Enforce GOD’S Agenda for your life in Jesus name.

While is it necessary to rejoice in the LORD for a New Dawn; it is more important to understand the demands of this New Season. Romans 13:11 says, “And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.”

It is very important to know the times and seasons we are in. Furthermore, you need to understand that it is High Time for you to Awake and Rise Up to the demands and requirements of this season, so that you can experience the delivery of your Covenant Blessings.

It is not enough to just know that God will do something new for his people. You must also know what to do in order to partake of what is coming. Prophecies do not fulfill themselves. Until you apply yourself to Covenant Requirements, Prophecies remain hanging in the spirit realm, it takes Acts of Faith to provoke Prophecies into Fulfilment. So, every time GOD is sounding an Alarm of a New Dawn and season, He is also drawing our attention to the need to make Quality Decisions in line with His promises.

It is High Time to Wake Up and Make Quality Decisions in line with God’s Agenda. Some of the decisions you need to make include;

• REDEDICATE your Life to God

Stop sleeping in sin and immortal chase. Even if your name is “Christian”, Heaven does not know you except you remain in Christ Jesus. Some of you are in Church but far from Christ. Until you are planted in Jesus, your identity is lost in Heaven. Jesus is coming back soon, it is time to Wake up from the sleep and slumber of immorality and secret sins.

If you have never given your life to Jesus, or if you need to rededicate your life to Him, confess this Prayer genuinely form your heart. Say, “Lord Jesus, I am a sinner. Have mercy on me and wash away all my sin. I accept you into my heart as my Lord and Saviour. From now, I am born again. I receive Championship over sin, satan and the world. Thank you Jesus. Amen!”

• RECOMMIT yourself to your First Love for GOD

Some of you have withdrawn your commitment to dedicated Kingdom service. The same job and promotion God gave you has now become the excuse for not serving Him. You used to go for street and bus evangelism, but now, “you cannot see yourself come down to that level.”

Rev 2:4-5 says, “Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.”

Everyone who has thrown away his or her first love is at the risk of loosing his life (candlestick); because that person is already loosing fire. What is the use of a fire-less candle?

Recommit your life to Kingdom Service, don’t allow anything disconnect you from serving GOD, do not allow a break in your fervency. Get back to your first love Now!

• RETURN to the Place of Nourishment

Many Christians have abandoned their spiritual lineage and have suffered many defeats. With all the nasty things your biological father did to you and your mother, did you change him? How come you think that you can change your Spiritual lineage? You don’t choose who your father in the LORD is, you discover him.

No matter how beautiful where you go is, you will lack certain triumphs if you disconnect from those that God put over you. No matter how humble they appear, maintain your connection and honour them. You cannot get what God wants you to get from them anywhere else.

In Luke 15:20-24, the prodigal son had to rise, go back and negotiate with his father. It was not a session of prayer and fasting. You cannot pray your way into nourishment until you reconnect to your God ordained channels.

Throw away your pride and Return to your father and those that GOD put over you. Don’t allow offence to rob you anymore. Return Now.

• REACTIVATE your Secret Place

Our generation is a very busy and burdened generation. Many Christians now give in to haste and have stopped or reduced praying and Word study. Other things have occupied your mind and your Fire is sinking.

Lev 6:12 says, “And the fire upon the altar shall be burning in it; it shall not be put out: and the priest shall burn wood on it every morning, and lay the burnt offering in order upon it; and he shall burn thereon the fat of the peace offerings.”

Your fire will go down and choke out if you stagger in the place of prayer and Word study. Arise and Restore your Secret Place Now.

• RE-PLOUGH your Fields

Some people have left the Specific Assignment GOD gave them. You have opted for a more beautiful Church. Your field is overtaken by weed and pest, and you are smiling away or possibly labouring in another man’s field.

I remember some years ago while Pastoring in Ikorodu – Lagos, some youths organized a vigil to pray because many of them were job seekers, so they invited me as a youth. God told me He will not be at the vigil. I asked why, He said, many of them have my Call on their lives, but they have abandoned my calling in search of jobs. I did not attend the vigil. Today, some of those youths are Pastors. God will give His people jobs but not at the detriment of His Calling on their lives.

GOD will not judge you based on what you do but on what He told you to do. Go back and work your field. You labour on another’s field will not count for you in Eternity.

IT IS TIME TO RISE to the Responsibilities of the Season. It is High Time to Awake out of every sleep and slumber of Destiny. There is not Fulfilment without Faith. None of GOD’S Promise will deliver without your Active Participation. You have a Role to Play, no more lukewarmness. Wake Up Now, Destiny beckons on you. God bless you. Arise!

NEW BOOK ALERT! 5 Types of Battles the devil Uses and How to Overcome. AVAILABLE HERE!

Thank God for revelation of deep things thus far. As privileged kings in His battalion, we are searching out deep things by His Spirit. What an honour! All the glory to the King of kings and the God of all flesh. Listen to me; the year 2023 is already set for your Establishment in Honour. Nothing will permit shame around your life anymore in Jesus name. Amen!

A couple of months back, I found myself in a very difficult situation. Though the LORD had informed us that difficult times will come, so it was not strange. However, it was not a palatable period, but by His Grace we stayed committed to God; hallelujah! Then, the LORD sent His servants, Daddy and Mummy Famonure all the way to visit us in Makurdi. God instructed me to invite them, and we did. Their visit was such an encouragement to us. God used them to lift us up in everyway; I can never forget. On that visit, they came not just as Spiritual Covering, they came as Deliverers for that moment.

The LORD revealed to me that; there are two main forces marshalled to dominate the year 2023 and the days ahead. These forces will affect every facet of human endeavour. They are not new; they have been in operation on this realm for long; but in 2023, their manifestations will determine what happens to humanity in the coming days. So, it is paramount that you watch your association very closely in 2023.

If you have not read the previous Notes for 2023, Click on the 1ST MINISTRY NOTE FOR 2023; and the 2ND MINISTRY NOTE FOR 2023. You will gain deep foundational insight into God’s Agenda for this year, and how to position yourself better.

Stealers of Love

1Kings 3:3 says, “And Solomon loved the LORD,…..” but chapter 11:1 says, “But king Solomon loved many strange women,…” The heart of Solomon had switched from passionately following God, to satisfying the desires of strange women. What happened to Solomon? Was this a bewitchment? And the Spirit of God told me, “the primary tool the devil used to capture king Solomon was association. The moment he began to associate with gentile kings and allow them to influence him, his passion for God began to drift until he lost control of his integrity to make quality decisions in pursuit of God.”

Listen to me child of God, the devil is after your fire. Motivational quotes have advised you to network. I have come to warn you to network with discernment. Watch your association. That a person is rich does not mean that you allow him or her into your alliance and inner circuit. Associate with people but be very careful who influences your life directly and indirectly. Solomon gathered the wrong influence around his life, and the devil won him cheaply. Wrong association is still an effective tool in the devil’s hand; the enemy will engage this tool a lot from 2023. Watch your space, guard your heart. You are in same grade, does not qualify him or her to be your “friend.” Greet them, but keep it at that level. Child of God, watch your heart and what influences your decisions.

Do not bring any association to a level where you cannot say “NO” to evil if it is presented. One of the greatest strengths a person can possess is the ability to say “NO” to evil, no matter who offers it. Wake Up!

Manifestations of Deliverers

Then, especially in 2023, we will begin to see the manifestation of the Ministry of Deliverers. Who are Deliverers? They are God’s tools built to bring deliverance to those who are destined for the top but cannot help themselves reach that height. Deliverers do not only to win their personal battles but also step into the battles of other people, and win for them.

2Chron. 23:9-11 says, “Moreover Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds spears, and bucklers, and shields, that had been king David’s, which were in the house of God. And he set all the people, every man having his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side of the temple, along by the altar and the temple, by the king round about. Then they brought out the king’s son, and put upon him the crown, and gave him the testimony, and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, God save the king.”

Joash was destined to be king, but as a child, he had to be stolen and hid from Athaliar who was a threat to the royal lineage. Athaliah killed the entire royal lineage, but Joash was lucky to be stolen and kept away. Few years later, Jehoiada the priest rose up to enforce the enthronement of Joash as king. Joash was just a boy, but without notice, God made him king. He sat upon the throne of his father, right in the face of Athaliah, their enemy. Jehoiada was his deliverer, the vessel in God’s hand for Joash’s Enthronement and Establishment in Honour.

Listen carefully please, God told me that 2023 is our year of Establishment in Honour. God will enthrone you, forget about your age and level. This year, God is sending deliverers to enforce the honour of His people. Men and women who are not seeking personal gains will show up for you, they are stronger than your enemies. Deliverers are authorities to whatever threatens you. They will step in and see to your Establishment in Honour in 2023.

Caution! Caution!! Caution!!!

If you receive a prophet as a teacher, all you will get is his teaching, you cannot access the prophetic rewards. Be careful how you treat people this year. Matt 10:41 says, “He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward; …” If you belittle those that God sends for your deliverance, you have lost it. This is a heart matter.

Young people in churches, be careful. Adults and leaders in God’s house, be careful. Set pride aside, and understand that a major answer to your fasting and prayers this year is the operation of deliverers. They may not appear as fascinating, but be discerning; submit to God and honour them.

One More Note of Love

Furthermore, on this note of association, take heed, you need the right people in your journey to the fulfilment of destiny. No matter who your spiritual father is, he only sees in part. You need teachers and they could be many because there are many subjects to learn and attend to.

You need teachers and in the contemporary space, they are fondly known as mentors. If God has shown you that you would be great in the medical field, as much as you need your Spiritual father’s covering to excel, he would not be able to help you in that field if he is not an authority therein. So, God could gladly provide a Christian mentor for you in that field to teach you the paths to follow.

Allow God lead you. Watch your association. Deliverers are on assignment for your rescue and enthronement in Jesus name. Have a blessed 2023 in Jesus name. Arise!

If you are called to be a Saviour in Ministry or in your Career Path, or you want to know more about the life, patterns and Ministry of Deliverers, then get the Mp3 audio below.

A few days before the new year, I was privileged to be in a retreat with the LORD. Just before leaving home, the LORD already placed a huge burden on my heart, a burden that dragged me to physical tears. By the time I was locked in with God, I had a form a physical pain around my chest area, I cannot really explain the pain but I could feel it physically. I spent my first night crying to God to remove this unexplainable pain from my heart. And of course, I initially invested some good time bombarding God with other prayer requests. But the burden persisted.

While I tarried with the LORD, I discovered that God dragged me into listening to Him. I suddenly found myself in quietness, for answers to the matters that I brought to Him. And then, He started talking to my heart, unveiling the mysteries that were of concern to me. He spoke a lot about the year 2023, and then I discovered that, while I had switched from voicing my request, the burden and pain on my heart had disappeared.

As soon as I realized the pain was no more, the LORD told me that, the pain and burden I felt was exactly the burden and pain His people had gone through in the year 2022. I immediately knew that in this year 2023, God will take away the burdens and pains in the lives of His people; delays will end, disappointments will become favourable appointments, distractions will loose grip, discouraged hearts will get strengthened, debts will be paid off and cancelled, depression will disappear; and God will take away the burdens of His people. 

The burden God placed on me was very discomforting. It however vanished as I switched from speaking, and began to listen to God. Without having to say the words, the LORD enlightened me to understand that, we will gain more victories this year by simply listening to Him.

There is the Listening Dimension of Prayer. Prayer is our access to God. It is also one of God’s avenue to reach and communicate with us. Prayer is not complete until you can hear God, as much as He can hear you. The effect of prayer is truncated if you are satisfied with the words you speak to God, when the real victories you desire are in the answers and strategies He is releasing.

Jer. 33:3 says, “Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.”

Jer. 33:3 is simply implying that, no matter how much you vibrate and are eloquent in prayers, great and mighty things are only available in God’s responses; and these great and mighty things, you do not know them. No matter how good you feel and the results you get when you pray, the great and mighty outcomes of prayer are not accessed until God speaks back to you. It is wisdom to give priority to the answers of God, especially in 2023. We must learn the art of hearing God, if Establishment in Honour is our desire.

Oh, that we will begin to desire that He speaks more. Sometimes, we talk too much because we know so little. God invested the remaining part of my time apart with Him, speaking to me. It was a very fulfilling time for me. All the glory to God!

There are times when God is ready, and doing so much in and around our lives, but because we have adopted a culture that worked, we loose the flexibility to adjust to what will work. The adopted culture that worked becomes an enemy to the momentary requirement of Heaven. We have learnt to pray and yes, we bombarded Heaven throughout 2022. We have also started the same approach this year. We must not stop praying, but now, we must give more attention to listening, and be ready to apply His instructions. What God is saying is more important than what you have to say, especially now. I believe this is one of the reasons why the LORD is having us pray at 5.00am as we wait on Him for 21 days; so we can have the remaining part of the day, listening to His responses. Hallelujah!

See Something Very Important in the Bible...

1 Kings 11:2 says, “Of the nations concerning which the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love.”

While, verse 11 says, “Wherefore the LORD said unto Solomon, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I have commanded thee, I will surely rend the kingdom from thee, and will give it to thy servant.”

Solomon stuck with the attitude of gathering strange woman and nothing seemed wrong. He was violating God’s instructions but things were still working for Him. Solomon desired these women and his desire for them was stronger than his passion to obey God’s instructions. This evil desire brought God’s judgement upon him and his generations. Even though there was a Covenant to keep David’s lineage established in honour, the kingdom was taken away from Solomon. This king lost the honour and its continuity. There was an enemy in Solomon’s heart; it cost him the throne and its establishment.

God is still drawing our attention again, to our hearts. God found David in the wilderness because of his heart, 1Sam. 13:14. If your heart is right towards God, this year, God will lift you up. What is in your heart? In this year 2023, the intentions of our hearts will be tested and revealed. And the results will be evident for many to see. What is in your heart can destroy what is in the future. Align your heart with the demands of God and His perfect will.

What was the Difference Between David and Solomon?

Their hearts were different! What was in David’s heart was different from what was in Solomon’s heart. While David’s heart yearned after God, 1Sam 13:14 and desired to do God’s will, without personal agenda; Solomon had his own agenda. He longed for something else part from God, 1Kings 11:2. Yes, Solomon loved God, but he loved other things too, 1Kings 3:1-3. Whatever your heart yearns for, apart from God, is an enemy that can truncate God’s agenda for you.

Pastor, Elder, Deaconess, Youth Leader, turn your hearts to God and seek Him only. If evil continues in your heart, it can destroy the promises of God for your Ministry and family. 2023 is a year of the fulfilment of Covenant Promises; but God will not allow the throne continue in the hands of a man whose heart is not right towards Him.

If you have never given your life to Jesus; or you need to make your ways perfect before Him, Return to God today, Say this Prayer of Salvation and Rededication;

“Almighty God, I have not been faithful and I have sinned. I return to you today; have mercy of me. Give me a new heart, the heart that pants after you. I receive Jesus anew into my heart, as my Lord and Saviour. I am born again, and I receive Championship over the devil, over sin and over the world. Thank you LORD, in Jesus Name. Amen!”

Congratulations! Join us in our Daily Prayers. See the post below. God bless you. Arise!

Congratulations and happy new year 2023. Welcome to our year of ESTABLISHEMENT IN HONOUR. 1 Kings 2:12 says, “Then sat Solomon upon the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established greatly.” Solomon assumed the throne prepared for him; it was a Generational Benefit. But apart from becoming king, God gave stability and peace to his reign. There are basic things that God will do for you this year 2023.

However, by the help of the Holy Spirit, I will be unveiling God’s heart for His people in a number of notes. This is the first, other notes will follow in the coming days. Please, give attention to what God is saying to us in these scripts. They are for our eternal benefits.

What Does It Mean to be Established in Honour?

• GOD will Pull You Out of every pit, prison and conspiracy of delay.

2022 was tough for many because it was a year of Final Tests for God’s people. While we have been praying, God has been trying and testing and making us. God does not give you what He has prepared, until you are prepared from His standards.

So, if you survived the storms of the previous year, and did not forsake Jesus; congratulations. In 2023, God will grant you Prison to Palace Testimonies.

• GOD will Enthrone You and Your Generation.

You have been hopping from job to job. At first, the new job will thrill you, but a few months down, you are dissatisfied. Actually, it is not a job you desire, your heart has been yearning for your place in destiny

In 2023, God will bring you to the Place of Destiny. The pit, slavery and prison have been pathways. Now, God will set you upon the much awaited Covenant Heights ordained for you. He will fulfill His Covenant promises for you. Even if it never existed, because of you, a place will be created at the top. Hallelujah!

Your lifting comes with Establishment. This means, God will make your reign last. What God is doing in 2023, will make your children and those after them, benefit from this Covenant Fulfilment.

• GOD will incapacitate every threat to your Reign.

There are 2 basic ways God incapacitates threats to our reign. He either makes your enemies to be at peace with you; or He executes your enemies completely. Because we are in the season of judgement, I perceive that in 2023, God may kill people for your sake; especially those who refuse to give you space and peace.  You will enjoy Peace and Joy throughout 2023 and onward. Hallelujah!

What Does God Require of Us in 2023?

Amongst other requirements that will help secure your Honourable Establishment, all of which we would dig into in subsequent notes, God’s primary requirement for His people this year is Love. 1 Sam 13:14 says, “But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the LORD hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the LORD hath commanded him to be captain over his people,…”

It takes a genuine heart for God, to come into the Palace and Destiny prepared for you. Without Genuine Love for GOD, you cannot come into the Palace and Kingdom Royalty will be terminated. Wherever you are now, love God genuinely and serve Him dedicatedly, He will seek you out this year 2023.

Saul lost his place because his heart was no longer with God, 1Kings 13:13.

Solomon began well, loving God with all his heart, 1Kings 3:3; but his heart left God, and his love for God was replaced by love for strange women, 1Kings 11:1. God cut off His Established and Generational Honour, 1Kings 11:9-11.

Love the LORD with all your might, your soul, your body and your resources. It takes love to lead in this Kingdom. It takes love to maintain royalty. If your love for God is not intact, you cannot rise into destiny no matter how much you try.

What are the Proofs of your Genuine Love for God?

• Put God first in everything! Matt. 6:33.
• Serve God on His terms not yours. He calls the shots; we are privileged servants. Obey His instructions, all of them; and obey them delightsomely. John 14:15.
• Serve God with your whole heart. Stop this eye service and gimmicks. Mark 12:30.
• Win souls. Win souls. Win souls into His Kingdom. Prov. 11:30.
• Pursue His Kingdom agenda with all your heart. Num. 25:11-12.

These are the primary proofs of your love for God. These are the bars on the Ladder to your Establishment in Honour. Commit to them now, and nothing will be able to able to stop your testimonies in 2023, and onward in Jesus name.

God bless you. Arise!
