Glory to God! Our Bible Study this Wednesday was indeed unusual. This is not an exaggeration! We can boldly declare that we are precious to our Heavenly Father who never ceases to amaze us. Our man of God taught on the subject, “HOW TO SYNCHRONIZE YOUR LIFE WITH GOD’S POWER: UNDERSTANDING THE INVISIBLE REALM.” In this teaching, he revealed the mystery of walking with God in the power of God, explaining how the hand of God distinguishes us in the world. The greatest highlight was when our man of God explained how our intentions communicate in the realms of the Spirit! Hallelujah! We were caught up in awe as we received clarity on how to walk in the power of God and communicate effectively in the realm of the Spirit. Hallelujah! You’ll be richly blessed by this. KEY HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS TEACHING: It is important to understand that the Word of God is designed to synchronize us with the supernatural realm. Without this alignment, we are no different from ordinary people. Sometimes the Word may not seem emotionally agreeable to us, but that doesn’t make it any less true. At the wedding feast where there was no wine, Mary the mother of Jesus gave a firm instruction to the servants. She said, “…Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it,” (John 2:5). That is the key to a walk in divine power for the supernatural —obedience to the Word. When God gives us His Word, it is to produce His kind of results in our lives. Often, the way God works out miracles is not how we expect. You may be anticipating solution A, but God may instruct you to focus on B. Yet, when you trust Him and obey, you will see how A gets divinely resolved. Hallelujah! Here lies the mystery of walking with God: He only asks us to do what we can do, so that He can handle what we cannot do. Hallelujah! At the wedding feast where there was no wine, two things were present: the One who gives the instruction, and the ones who obey the instruction. Mary, the mother of Jesus, played a key role by saying, “Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it,” (John 2:5). That obedience made the miracle happen. In the same way, you can trigger God’s intervention in your family, business, and life—because you know the One who makes miracles happen, and you understand the importance of obeying His Word. There is always an instruction tied to your breakthrough. There is always a Word of God to practice. The Word was never given for entertainment or to be obeyed only when convenient. Every Word was given so that we might experience His love, faithfulness, and power in our lives. When you realize this, you discover that obedience is for your good. So, don’t argue with it—obey with joy and excitement; practice, do, or exercise yourself in the Word! Glory to God! 1 Kings 18:46: “And the hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.” The difference among us is the hand of God at work. But on whom does His hand rest? For whom does it work? If you understand this and align yourself with His Word, you will secure His mighty hand upon your life, your business, and your family. Without the hand of God, what stops the natural man will also stop you. The hand of God eliminates struggles and human efforts. Nothing brings the hand of God into a person’s life more than obedience to His Word. The less you apply God’s Word, the less you will understand it. Every Word God gives you is designed to multiply in your life, depending on how you respond and practice it. Don’t just have a church routine—build a Word routine. Be zealous to practice what you hear, for where the Word of God is, there His hand will also be. Use the Word to build your life and the hand of God will rest upon all you do. Hallelujah! The Word of God flows with His power. Our Lord Jesus said, “The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life,” (John 6:63). That means they are potent, alive, and able to bring about change. So, when God speaks, everything hears: angels, the earth, circumstances, and even the right people. When God told Elijah, “I have commanded the ravens to feed thee,” (1 Kings 17:4), He didn’t give separate instructions to the prophet and to the birds—it was one command, and everything involved heard and responded. That’s how the Word works. When God speaks, everything connected to His intent aligns. When the Word goes forth, everything tied to that situation is addressed. Sometimes, your only response needs to be as simple as “Amen.” From there, the Spirit of God coordinates people, opportunities, and resources in your favor. That’s why nothing in your life happens by chance—the Lord has already prepared people and situations ahead of you. Hallelujah! There is always an allocated grace for every God-ordained purpose. Many struggle because they are walking outside of purpose, where there is no grace assigned to them. But whenever you align with what the Spirit has guided you to do, there is an anointing allocated to guarantee success. God never gives a purpose without providing the grace for its fulfillment. Samson had an allocated grace, but that anointing was not constantly active. Every time he functioned in power, it was because the hand of the Lord came upon him. This means his supernatural strength was conditional, not constant. Just like Samson, there are moments in our lives when we operate naturally and moments when we operate supernaturally. Samson’s mission was to be a defender of God’s people—a judge. Whenever he was focused on his purpose, confronting the enemy, the hand of God came upon him. There is a clear relationship between the anointing
HOW TO PRAY EFFECTIVELY WITH ANSWERS
Praise God! Once again, we had a truly blessed Bible Study session this Wednesday. Glory to God! The theme “HOW TO PRAY EFFECTIVELY WITH ANSWERS” was so timely — we needed it! From the very beginning, our man of God led us in a solemn moment of prayer and intercession for our nation. He then continued by giving us a rare understanding of prayer — an understanding that many lack, and which is very likely the reason so many don’t get answers when they pray. We came to understand the vital role of words and visions in prayer, the relationship between fasting and vision, the place of tongues, prayer, and prophecy, and how God speaks through us and exercises His authority over circumstances. Hallelujah! It was indeed a rich and loaded session that stirred everyone to love prayer even more and to pray effectively with results. Hallelujah! Enjoy the highlights below and be sure to watch the full message too. KEY HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS TEACHING: If you want to be effective in prayer, you must first have a clear picture in your mind. Prayer begins with vision — with an image of what you desire to see some circumstance change to. It is into that image of the change that you send your instructive words. If you see nothing, you will create nothing. Effective prayer, therefore, does not start with words — it starts with a picture of the desire. You must train your mind to see the transformation you desire. We have the responsibility to make things move. If you want to effect change through prayer, you must see the change first. Your words are meant to give substance to what you’ve already seen. Without a picture, your prayer becomes vain. That’s why, at the place of prayer, quality meditation should be a priority. You are not doing much in prayer until you have first seen the change and the image is clear in your spirit. God asked Jeremiah, “What seest thou?” (Jeremiah 1:11). If vision were not important, why would God ask His prophet what he could see? God, who made man, knows exactly how man should function. Vision is the ability to see clearly. When you pray, describe the change you expect — not just with words, but with the pictures formed in your mind. Why do we then speak words when we pray? Because words help us form and anchor thoughts. When you pray with understanding and vision, your words carry creative power, and you become effective in producing real change. The advantage of this is clear — you become effective in creating change through prayer. Hallelujah! Anyone who has not seen results in prayer will rarely promote it. Many who say, “It’s not all about prayer,” do so because they never had results when they prayed. When believers pray without results, it gives unbelievers even more reason to dismiss prayer as meaningless. Never subject your convictions to the opinions of the world. The enemy will either discourage you from praying or distort your understanding of prayer. He cannot encourage what threatens him. Even the disciples of Jesus had been praying long before He came, but when they observed Him, they noticed something different. His prayers produced results. That is why they came to Him and said, “Lord, teach us to pray.” (Luke 11:1). The church today must also learn how to pray effectively. Many in the church pray as a mere religious routine — like the religious Jews who prayed always but saw no change. But there are those who pray because they understand the reward of prayer and they see results. There are moments when God will ask you what you see because He wants to perfect your sight before He sents His Word. This is where fasting comes in. Fasting is not meant to change God; it is designed to sharpen your vision at prayer. It purifies your focus, separates you from distractions, and aligns your spirit for clarity. That is why the discipline of prayer should never be rushed. The secret of answered prayer lies in vision before confession — seeing before speaking. Ecclesiastes 5:1 says, “Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil.” Talking is preceded by good hearing. When you go to pray, go first to see, because God wants to ask you, “What do you see?” He wants to show you something. Let God speak first at prayer. If you are only and always crying at the place of prayer, then there’s no faith. Faith is proven when you start laughing in expectation because you’re convinced it’s possible and done. If you can paint the change in your mind, then it’s possible. When God visited the people building the Tower of Babel, He said, “…and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do,” (Genesis 11:6). That statement was a revelation to us: once you can see it, it means it’s achievable. If you truly believe what you see, your mood will reflect it. If your attitude doesn’t change, it means you’re seeing the vision but not yet believing it. That is why you must take time to fast — not to impress God, but to sharpen your focus and resist distractions. Fasting helps you see clearly and stay fixed on the vision God showed you. So, don’t let go. Pray until something happens. Hold fast until what you’ve seen becomes what you live. Hallelujah! Anyone who tells you that it’s not by talking is speaking for Satan. Check what Satan tries to minimize — that’s how you know what truly works. What the world criticizes most about the Church is what the Church needs most. Why do they fight speaking in tongues so fiercely? God Himself created the heavens and the earth by talking. The Bible tells us in
