Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory (1 Corinthians 2:7-8) There’re those who think the devil has the ability to read human minds and know exactly what is going on in their thoughts. But that’s untrue! The devil cannot read the human mind any more than an intelligent person can guess what’s in your mind simply by observing your mannerisms, body movements and body language. Satan is a created being and as such, he doesn’t have the power or omniscience of God. Satan doesn’t know everything. This limitation is evident in various instances throughout the Bible. For example, after Jesus was born, Herod, disturbed by the news of a new “King of the Jews” born in Bethlehem, secretly inquired from the Magi about the exact location of the child. After being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, the Magi went back to their country via another route. Herod, feeling deceived, ordered the massacre of all male children from ages two and below in Bethlehem and its vicinity, hoping to kill the prophesied new king. That’s to show you that Satan’s knowledge is limited. Even today, he’s not privy to all that we know or all that God knows. His actions are based on his limited understanding rather than any ability to foresee the entirety of God’s plan. But thanks be unto God; the Bible says God has revealed these things to us by His Spirit: _*”…for the Spirit searches all things, yea, the deep things of God”*_ (1 Corinthians 2:10). Satan doesn’t have access to these deep things; he isn’t privy to the intricate details of God’s plans for your life, unless they’re revealed by your own actions or speech. And guess what? He can’t stop the plans and blessings of God from coming to pass in your life, except with your cooperation of course. That’s why it’s important to speak in tongues; as we do, we speak deep mysteries concerning God’s plans, including those related to our lives. The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 14:2 that no man understands what we’re saying when we speak in tongues; not even the devil. But God reveals these mysteries to us through the Holy Spirit. Moment of Worship: *PRAYER* *Dear Father, I thank you for your omniscience and for the victory I have in Jesus Christ. l am grateful that you’re all-knowing and that nothing escapes your understanding. I walk in your guidance and wisdom and rely on your perfect plan for my life, confident that you’re aware of all things and have given me dominion over Satan and the powers of darkness, in Jesus’ Name.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou Son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil (Matthew 15:22) In our last two studies, we reviewed two important mysteries about prayer: lifting up of our hands and praying in the night watches. There’s also another mystery about prayer that has to do with faith and worship. I’ll explain this with an intriguing story in the Bible. In Matthew 15:22, we read about a woman of Canaan who cried out to Jesus for help. The situation was dire; her daughter was afflicted by a demon, and the physicians couldn’t help. Despite her desperate plea, the Lord Jesus initially remained silent. Verse 23 says, …he answered her not a word…. The Master’s silence didn’t deter the woman as she remained importunate. The disciples, uncomfortable by the Master’s silence, urged Him to rather send the woman away because she was causing a disturbance. Finally, the Lord spoke, saying, _*”…l am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel”*_ (Matthew 15:24). Undeterred, the woman decided to add worship to her faith-request; the Bible says she came and worshipped Jesus, saying, _*”…Lord, help me”*_ (Matthew 15:25). At that moment, the conversation shifted; Jesus then responded with a seemingly strong statement: _*”…It is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it to dogs”*_ (Matthew 15:26). Yet unmoved, the woman still expressed her faith saying, _*”…Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table”*_ (Matthew 15:27). Her response was a demonstration of great faith and humility. In verse 28, Jesus commended her; saying, _*”…O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt….”*_ Her daughter was healed from that very hour. This story reveals a profound lesson: worship can be the key that unlocks divine responses when it seems like there’s silence from God. The woman’s persistent faith and worship led to her miracle. Have you ever prayed and it seemed like you weren’t hearing anything from the Lord? You’re wishing you could hear from God and it seems as though there’s no response? Do what the woman did. In faith, worship the Lord profusely and sincerely, and you’ll get a response. Hallelujah! Moment of Worship: *PRAYER* *Dear Father, I worship and adore you, the everlasting King of glory, the only wise and true God, gracious, holy, righteous, pure and kind. Yours, O Lord, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the majesty and the splendour! You’re exalted as head over all, and l extol your majesty and praise you for your blessings and wondrous works in my life and in all the earth, in Jesus’ Name.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed (Exodus 17:11). In the next few days, I’ll be explaining certain mysteries, which you can practise and have amazing results as shown to us in the Scriptures. These mysteries are imperceptible to the human mind, but they’re things we learn from studying the Word. For example, Exodus 17:8-16 tells a beautiful story that shows one of such powerful mysteries. The Amalekites attacked the Israelites at Rephidim. Moses then instructed Joshua to lead the people in battle while he stood on a hill with the staff of God in his hand. Then the Bible says, And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed (Exodus 17:11). Aaron and Hur noticed that there was a connection between the lifting of Moses’ hands and the victory in the battle. So, when Moses’ hands grew tired, they brought a stone for him to sit on and held up his hands, one on either side, ensuring that his hands remained raised until they vanquished Amalek by sunset. God then told Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven (Exodus 17:14). This made Joshua to understand how the battle was really won. The secret was in the spirit: the lifting up of Moses’ hands. There’s victory and power through your hands. The psalmist said in Psalm 141:2, Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice. Also, the apostle Paul said, I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands… (1 Timothy 2:8). Practise this and you’ll see greater successes and profound victories in your life, in your finances, health, job, ministry and everything that concerns you. Even now, lift your hands to the Lord; it’s a strategy of the Spirit for your continual victory and life of ever-increasing glory. Hallelujah! READ ALSO: *PRAYER* Dear Father, I lift up my hands in faith to you who always leads me in perpetual victory parade in Christ. My raised hands are as the evening sacrifice.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 3:16). The most beautiful part of the Gospel is not only that Jesus bore our sins and sacrificed Himself for us, but that He gave us something in return—eternal life. One of the most well-known verses in the Bible is John 3:16 and it says, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” This means anyone who believes in Jesus Christ receives eternal life. It’s a guarantee! The moment you believe in Jesus, you have it. You don’t have to wait for it or hope for it; you have it immediately. John 6:47 says, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” It’s not a promise of something to come in the future. If you believe, you already have it! Often, I ask people, “Do you believe in Jesus?” and some would say yes. Then I’d say, “Did you receive anything when you believed?” I found that most weren’t sure. They weren’t taught that something extraordinary happened as a result of their believing in Jesus. The Master was clear: “…He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” 1 John 5:11-12 says, “And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.” Notice the tenses: if you have Jesus Christ, you have eternal life. So, don’t pray for eternal life. The 13th verse is absolutely remarkable; it says, “These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life…” (1 John 5:13). God wants you to know that you have eternal life. This knowledge changes everything. When you know that you have eternal life, it impacts the way you live. You no longer live in fear or uncertainty but in confidence and victory. Hallelujah! PRAYERDear Father, I thank you for the gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ. I walk in the consciousness of this life, living boldly and confidently, knowing that I am secure in Christ. Thank you for this precious gift that changes lives and empowers men to live in victory, prosperity and health every day, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD ?Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth (Ephesians 6:1-3). Someone asked the question: “How powerful are curses or blessings spoken by parents over their children?” Such curses or blessings, according to the Bible, have impactful implications; they could be quite powerful. When you study the Bible, you’d find blessings by parents and curses by parents and how they came to pass. Being born again, it’s important to understand that we’re called into a life of blessings by God. We were called to inherit a blessing (1 Peter 3:9). If, however, you had a problem with your parents before you were born again and they pronounced a curse on you, now that you’re born again, that curse will no longer have any effect. You should nevertheless go and reconcile with them. That’s important. If reconciliation is impossible or difficult, consult your pastor. Your pastor can counsel you and guide you on what to do next. If you were already born again and then your parent cursed you, generally, that curse will not work. However, if your actions were contrary to the Word of God, you could face real trouble. This is because being outside the Word of God places you in a vulnerable position where such a curse could have an effect on you. Remember the lsraelites in Egypt: when the death angel was to come into Egypt, God instructed them to mark their doorposts with blood. This marked them out from the Egyptians, protecting them from harm. Similarly, staying within the Word of God and functioning according to God’s principles keeps you protected. If you live outside the Word, you open yourself to potential danger; you break the hedge as it were. And the Bible says, “…whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him” (Ecclesiastes 10:8). God wants us to live in peace, for He has called us to peace, especially with our parents. The Bible teaches us to honour our parents as stated in Ephesians 6:1-3, which is a quote from Exodus 20:12 and Deuteronomy 5:16. This commandment comes with a promise: that it may be well with you and that you may live long on the earth. Christian parents should also never curse their children but bless them. PRAYER Dear Father, I choose to live in the light of your Word, honouring my parents and those you’ve placed in my path as leaders and walking in peace and in the blessings that come from doing your Word, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree. Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins (Acts 5:30-31). What we just read brings to mind the words of the Lord Jesus when He appeared to Saul of Tarsus. He told him He was sending him to the Gentiles, “To open their eyes…that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me” (Acts 26:18). Notice the emphasis in the latter part on receiving forgiveness of sins, not asking for it. You’re to “take” forgiveness of sins. Read that latter part again and see the connection between receiving forgiveness of sins and our inheritance; they’re both under the same Greek word “Lambano.” The same way you receive an inheritance is how you receive forgiveness. Just as it’s pointless to ask for your inheritance again and again, for the Bible says in Him (Christ Jesus) we have obtained an inheritance (Ephesians 1:11), it’s superfluous to keep asking God for forgiveness. That’s because in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, forgiveness is in the package; you receive it and make it yours. Read 1 John 1:9 and notice that it doesn’t say, “ask for forgiveness”; rather, it says to acknowledge your sins. Why? It’s because He’s already provided for your forgiveness. What He wants you to do is to obtain forgiveness; receive it. It’s important that we teach people the accurate Word of God. If Satan can keep you asking for forgiveness again and again and you aren’t sure whether or not you’re being forgiven, he will make you ineffective in your Christian life and unable to do the things that God has called you to do. Your faith will be weak. The Father knows this, and that’s the reason He provided for your forgiveness. If you did something wrong in your life and you are thinking about what to do, stop asking and trying to wait to know whether or not God has forgiven you; receive (“lambano”—Greek) forgiveness; take it! You say, “Father, I acknowledge that this thing I did is wrong, and I receive forgiveness in the Name of Jesus.” That puts the responsibility on you not on God. It’s no longer a question of whether or not God has forgiven you; rather, it’s about whether you have received what He already made available to you. Forgiveness is part of that Gospel package.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spake I with my tongue (Psalm 39:3). The psalmist in the verse above said, “While I was musing, the fire burned”; that tells us something powerful about meditation: it causes the spiritual fire to burn; it fuels your inspiration. What are your expectations, plans, targets, goals and aims for the incoming year? You can put yourself on the right track and fuel your inspiration by taking time to meditate on the Word. Jeremiah, like the psalmist, in Jeremiah 20:9, decided not to speak any more about God, but the fire within him—God’s Word in his heart—burned so intensely that he couldn’t hold back: “Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay.” Jeremiah 5:14 says, “Wherefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.” Also, in Jeremiah 23:29, the Bible says, “Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?” God’s Word is described as fire and a hammer that breaks rocks into pieces. You’re already filled with the Holy Spirit; therefore, the fire of God is in your spirit. But to ignite the fire, you must meditate on the Word. When the Word is in your heart as a burning fire, you cannot keep quiet; you’ll always maintain inspiration. We just read from two prophets, David and Jeremiah, who knew how to burn for God, and they shared their secret: meditating on God’s Word. It emboldens you to speak the Word with passion and conviction. So, as you pray and fast in preparation for the coming year, make sure you consciously meditate on God’s Word. Pray fervently in tongues, and meditate on the Word until you get to the point where you release this “fire” from within you and enforce the victory the Lord Jesus Christ has wrought in your behalf. PRAYERDear Father, I thank you for your Word, which burns in my heart, inspiring me to boldly declare your truth and purpose for my life, and to enforce your will in the earth and in the lives of men, all over the world, as I manifest and express your glory in every area of my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD Who was betrayed and put to death because of our misdeeds and was raised to secure our justification (our acquittal), [making our account balance and absolving us from all guilt before God] (Romans 4:25 AMPC). When we say “Jesus died for the whole world,” it’s a generic expression indicating that He died for all humanity. So, in that generic sense, Jesus was condemned in our place. He was judged for all of us. But when you believe in Him, two significant things happen. First, your acceptance and acknowledgement that His vicarious sacrifice was in your behalf makes it possible for you to receive eternal life. Receiving eternal life means you’re born again; you’re now a brand new person, without a past: “…if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17). Then, now that you’re a new creature in Christ Jesus, it’s essential to understand that in the actual sense, Jesus didn’t die for the sins of this new man in Christ because the new life you received upon the New Birth is the God-life; it’s not tainted with sin. The new man in Christ was created in righteousness and true holiness (Ephesians 4:24). Colossians 3:10 says you “…have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him.” This realization leads to the understanding of why you’re justified. The Bible says, “Jesus Christ was delivered up on account of our transgressions but He was raised for our justification” (Romans 4:25). Now, being justified, you’re at peace with God and have become the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. Those who don’t understand this truth struggle daily, “trying” to be righteous and to please God. But the key is to simply accept the truth of what Jesus Christ has done and live by it. Moment of Worship: https://loveworldlyrics.com/the-night-of-his-birth-by-kome-amp-treasure-and-loveworld-singers-christmas-eve-service/ PRAYERDear Father, I thank you for the gift of my brand-new life in Christ. I celebrate the truth that I am a new creation in Him, with old things completely passed away. I fully embrace my new identity and live in the fullness of eternal life that you have imparted to me. I declare that I am justified and empowered to live righteously, free from any past struggles, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another (Romans 12:10). Did you know that what you give to others—the treatment you mete out to them—is actually unto God? That’s what the Bible says: “If you help the poor, you are lending to the LORD—and he will repay you!” (Proverbs 19:17 NLT). So, when you do good things for others, never complain about it; instead, be glad. Once you complain about the good you’re doing, you destroy the effectiveness of it. Remember what the Bible says: do all things without complaining, and by so doing, you show yourself to be a true child of God without fault, manifesting His light in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation (Philippians 2:14-15). When you’re kind and affectionate to others, you don’t have to expect anything from them in return, for the Bible says, “of the Lord you shall receive your reward:” “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ” (Colossians 3:23-24). Everyone who treats people well, turns out to be a success in just a matter of time. Why? Because God treats people well and He’s always on the lookout for those who manifest His character. Remember, He so loved us that He sent His Son, Jesus, to die in our place for our salvation (John 3:16). He looks out for those who identify with Him in saving, blessing and loving others so He can manifest His grace and power in and through them. Therefore, let His love flow out of you effortlessly. Be genuinely interested in people and be willing to help them. Whenever the opportunity presents itself, offer your assistance. Ask, “May I help you?” and when you’re through, still ask, “Is there anything else I could do for you?” What if they don’t treat you nicely in return? It doesn’t matter! The Bible says, “Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing” (1 Peter 3:9 NIV).

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory (Colossians 1:27). For some people, Christmas is all about food and family. So, on Christmas day, they make sure to get around family, eat, feast and be merry. But beyond the merry-making, Christmas is about Christ: who He is, what He came to do, and the fact that He actually accomplished His purpose. Had He not accomplished His purpose, life would have been empty. He came, lived, died, and came back to life that you might live. He said in John 10:10 (AMPC), “…I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).” 1 John 3:8 says, “…For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.” This same Jesus is coming again, and it’s time to serve Him truly; it’s time to know Him for sure. Titus 2:13 tells us something beautiful about who He is—He’s the great God and our Saviour: “Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.” Did you see that? Jesus is God. When He was born among us, He was called “Emmanuel,” God with us. In Colossians 1:19, the Bible says, the fullness of Deity resides in Him. The totality of divinity dwells in Jesus Christ: “For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily” (Colossians 2:9). Jesus Christ is the body of God; everything that God is, is in Jesus. But here’s the most inspiring part: this Jesus, the great God and our Saviour, isn’t just with you today but in you. That’s what we read in our opening scripture: Christ in you the hope of glory. This is the actual meaning of Christmas. Christmas is the celebration of Christ in you. You haven’t known what Christmas is and how to celebrate Christmas until you have the understanding that Christ literally dwells in the quarters of your heart. The real celebration begins when you arrive at God’s revelation for Christmas, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. This was God’s plan from the beginning: this was what He always wanted—that we be filled or replete with all the fullness of God, just as Jesus was.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life (John 3:15). The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is pressing into it (Luke 16:16 NKJV). The Kingdom of God is a real Kingdom, howbeit, a spiritual one, and being born again, we’re progenies of the Kingdom. The Kingdom of God includes everything under God’s dominion, both on earth and in Heaven. But there’s also the Kingdom of Heaven, which is the earthly manifestation of the Kingdom of God, set up by Jesus. So, when Jesus came and said, “The Kingdom of God is at hand” (Matthew 3:2, Mark 1:15), He was referring to the Kingdom of Heaven that He had come to establish or set up in the earth. This is the Kingdom that Jesus began to preach and to make known, something others couldn’t do because they hadn’t entered it themselves—it was promised to them. But Jesus preached it and then brought us into it through the New Birth. Hallelujah! Colossians 1:12-13 says, “Giving thanks unto the Father…Who hath…translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.” So, today, the same Kingdom that Jesus Himself preached is what He’s commissioned us to preach to the ends of the earth: “And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God…” (Luke 9:2). But one day, very soon, this Kingdom, which is in the spirit realm right now, will manifest in this world and take over this world. Intensify your efforts and stop at nothing in ensuring the good news of the Kingdom spreads to the ends of the earth; win more souls into the Kingdom. The Lord Jesus, referring to being born again, said in John 3:5, “…Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.” It’s our responsibility to preach the Gospel of the Kingdom so that every man, woman, boy and girl on the face of the earth might hear, believe and be brought into the Kingdom. Remember the words of the Master in Matthew 24:14, “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Blessed be God!

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God (Ephesians 3:19). I like the fact that at Christmas time many profess love; they say it’s a season to love one another. But most only assume to know what love is, whereas they really don’t. What most have experienced and understood is tolerance, not love. Tolerance is your ability to bear with others; it’s a good thing, but it shouldn’t be confused as love. That you tolerate people doesn’t mean you love them. Even the Jews had difficulty understanding love. The Jewish mind was complex, and one of the ways God could get their attention was to give them the golden rule: “Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: l am the LORD” (Leviticus 19:18). He said to them, “Love your neighbour as yourself.” But how could a man love his neighbour as himself when even he isn’t conscious of loving himself? This wasn’t God’s best delineation of love, but He had to work with them from the “outside.” So, He said to them, “Do unto others as you want them to do to you” (Matthew 7:12, Luke 6:31). After a while, they began to abuse this. A man could take another’s wife and say, “l don’t mind if you do the same to me. Take my rude wife.” But when Jesus came, He manifested God’s love in a way that was different. He said, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends” (John 15:13). He showed them love from God’s perspective, and not only did He preach this love, He proved it. You can’t show or manifest true love if you don’t know Jesus. When you hear someone say, “l can’t please you and displease myself,” such a person is quoting from the Old Testament. But Jesus says no; it’s not about pleasing yourself; it’s about laying down your life for others. It’s about making others happy even at the expense of your own feelings. There’s no greater love than this. Your understanding of this will completely change your life and your commitment to Jesus Christ, and to those for whom He died.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD You know the way to the place where I am going. Thomas said to him, Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way? (John 14:4-5 NIV). The Lord Jesus, just before His crucifixion, had a meeting with His disciples where He told them He would be going away to Heaven. They were saddened by the news, but Jesus comforted them, saying, “…l go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going” (John 14:3-4 NIV). Notice His language: always succinct, always positive. It shows you the Master’s mentality. He said, “You know the way to the place where I am going.” But Thomas, who was thinking in the flesh, said, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?” Jesus’ response to him was profound. He said, “…l am the way, the truth, and the life…” (John 14:6). What an answer! Jesus was speaking by the Spirit, and His answer probably made Thomas more confused because Thomas was reasoning in the flesh. Then Jesus said in the next verse, “If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him” (John 14:7). Remarkable! Notice that Jesus didn’t say, “Okay, Thomas, from henceforth, I’m going to try to introduce the Father to you”; no! Rather, He said, “You know Him.” This is the way He wants you to think. He doesn’t want you arguing and declaring your lack of knowledge. Respond in the spirit. The Bible says you have an unction from the Holy One and you know all things (1 John 2:20). Hallelujah! The Lord has said you know the Father; therefore say, “Yes sir! I know Him.” Blessed be God! When you agree and affirm the Word like that, suddenly, the knowledge of God will well up in your spirit, and you’ll discover the truth. Remember, He is the way, the truth, and the life. What He tells you is truth. If He says you know Him, that’s the truth. Moreover, He also said it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the Kingdom (Mathew 13:11, Luke 8:10), and that includes knowing the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Hallelujah!

I declare with confidence that I know you, and I walk in that truth always. This knowledge transforms my life, my language and interactions.

FURTHER STUDY:|| John 14:16-17And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17 [Even] the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. || || John 17:3And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. || || 1 John 2:13I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him [that is] from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father. || || Jeremiah 9:24But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I [am] the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these [things] I delight, saith the LORD. || READ ALSO: Christ purchased a life of glory for me through His death and resurrection, and sickness has no place in that life.

I have the life of Christ at work in my spirit, soul, and body. No darkness, misery, infirmity, or pain is associated with me because Christ is my life. I walk in preordained pathways of blessings! Divine health flourishes in me. Goodness and mercy follow me everywhere I go, and I have the supernatural grace to excel in all endeavors today. By virtue of the divine life of Christ at work in me, I experience health, victory, and prosperity. I have guaranteed health, success, safety, wellness, and wholeness. I am the expression of God’s fullness, grace, and glory. I manifest His kingdom and power. I have put on the nature of righteousness. I have the incorruptible life of God in my Spirit. This life energizes every cell of my blood, every bone of my body, and every fiber of my being, such that I radiate life and health always. I am a testimony, the seed of Abraham, and an heir of Abraham’s blessing through Christ. I prosper in my health and bear living proof of God’s infinite grace, blessing, and love. The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, causing life to spring forth from within me. I cut off any form of sickness or disease that tries to invade my body. There is no influence of Satan in my life, for Jesus is the Lord of my life! The Spirit of the Lord is in me, causing life to spring forth from within me. Blessed be God for the victory over death that I have in Christ. The life I
