On Sunday 23rd July, 2017 Apostle Johnson Suleman after locating an elderly woman during the prophetic session amidst the course of service promised to pay her the sum of 50,000 naira every month.
she is 73 years old and sells fire wood for a living.
Apostle Prof Johnson Suleman asked her to stop the business and look after herself while she receives her monthly pay of 50,000 naira from him.
Indeed God can do all things... It doesn't take him 24 hours to change ones story.
TODAY'S SCRIPTURES: PSALM113.
TOPIC:
THY KINGDOM COME.
TEXT: " Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven." Matthew 6 :10.
Our Lord Jesus taught us to always pray for God's Kingdom to come.
By implication; what it means is that the influence of God's reign should increase immensely.
The prophet Isaiah prophesied that of the increase of His government there shall be no end (Isaiah 9 :7).
The primary duty of every believer is to see to it that His Kingdom comes.
His Kingdom is ridiculousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost (Romans 14 :17).
God wants His righteousness, peace and joy to cover the whole earth as the waters covers the sea, and the requirements through which this agenda will be fulfilled is for the believer to align with God both in his prayer life and in all he does with all in his possession of in life.
When His Kingdom comes, His will find expression on this earth.
Make a resolve today to use every substance and power that God has given you to bring His will to bear upon earthly realm, therefore making the coming of the Kingdom a reality.
PRAYER
My Father, My Maker, empower me to hasten the coming of the spread of your kingdom, in Jesus name.
THEME: PROVISION BEFORE NEED
Memorise:
According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 2 Peter 1:3
Read: 2 Peter 1:1-4
1:1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:
1:2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
1:3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
Message:
“God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.” Psalm 46:5
From the above passage of scripture, one great benefit available to those who have God as their Refuge is that the help or assistance they need will never be late. There are at least three different times an individual can receive assistance. It could be before, during or after one experience a need. If a need or an emergency arises today and you already have the wherewithal to meet that need, maybe from your earnings from paid employment or a business venture, you have already received help before that need arose. This is a great place to be in! Some families already have all they will ever need to take care of their children and pay their way up to post-graduate degree programme, even before this need arises. Such people will never panic for school fees. This is an example of provision before need, and it describes a state of living in abundance. You will experience such in Jesus' Name!
Moreover, do you know that God follows this same pattern in dealing with His children? For example, before God created Adam and Eve, all they would ever need had been provided for in the Garden of Eden which God Himself planted. God knows exactly what you need even before you express or voice out your request (Matthew 6:32). Do you know that God has already provided all you would ever need to live a victorious Christian life and to fulfill your God-given destiny? The Holy Spirit speaks about this to us in 2 Peter 1:3 where He says;
“According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:”
It is therefore possible for you to be a beneficiary of provision before need. However, one major challenge for most people with regards to this benefit is that when there is provision to meet their future needs, they become careless, frivolous and wasteful. When God provides ahead of time, it is possible to spend it on other things outside God’s purpose. You therefore need divine guidance even in plenty. Having abundance does not justify wastefulness in God’s Kingdom. However, to partake of this great benefit, you need to increase your knowledge of the Provider, walk in obedience to Him, follow spiritual financial principles and wait on His directives always.
Action Point:
What some people waste daily is more than enough to feed several needy, hungry people. To trigger blessings from the Lord, such excess should be spent on meeting the needs of others.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
1 Kings 9-10
Ezekiel 18: 1-18
AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE
HYMN 10: THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSINGS
1. There shall be showers of blessing:
This is the promise of love;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
Sent from the Saviour above.
Refrain:
Showers of blessing,
Showers of blessing we need:
Mercy-drops round us are falling,
But for the showers we plead.
2. There shall be showers of blessing,
Precious reviving again;
Over the hills and the valleys,
Sound of abundance of rain.
[Refrain]
3. There shall be showers of blessing;
Send them upon us, O Lord;
Grant to us now a refreshing,
Come, and now honour Thy Word.
[Refrain]
4. There shall be showers of blessing:
Oh, that today they might fall,
Now as to God we’re confessing,
Now as on Jesus we call!
[Refrain]
5. There shall be showers of blessing,
If we but trust and obey;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
If we let God have His way.

Topic:
MORE THAN YOUR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT: HE DOES NOT OWE!
( HEBREWS 11:6-13; PSALM 37:23-26).
William Couper Brain wrote the golden lines below: “No man can be a patriot on an empty stomach.” The above statement can be confirmed by the fact that the Federal Government of Nigeria owed her pensioners billions of Naira. But good news came recently in 2017 when 41.5 billion naira was paid! “Concerned about the plight of pensioners who retired under the Contributory Pension Scheme without being paid, the Federal Government has cleared the inherited arrears of accrued pension benefits for the year 2014, 2015 and 2016 by releasing N41.5 billion to the National Pension Commission, PENCOM, for onward payment of the retires” , Minister of Finance Mrs. Kemi Adeosun disclosed. Great news but consider the three years of no food on their tables! I can imagine how many pensioners died before this payment was made!
In fact, it is predicted that the pension bill would supersede the monthly payment for active workers of the Federal Government. Oh, no wonder pensioners are dying in queues daily! How can a hungry man be patriotic on an empty stomach? Indeed, governments are trying their best but they are not your God! God’s concern in our devotional today is to rescue you that He is not a man! God wants you to know that all your labor of love for His Kingdom shall not be in vain! Heaven is sending me to let you know that He is a perfect Paymaster: The God that says, “Owe no man, but love,” will not owe you! Hold on even when it seems that God is slow or when darkness has hidden His face!
Your God pays more than the government or any company! The God that paid ( rewarded ) Abraham, Moses, Daniel, Elijah, Elisha, Peter etc, will also pay you. Hebrews 11:6 says that He is a rewarder! Hear Psalm 37:25: “……..I have not seen the righteous forsaken nor his seed begging bread.” When Joseph chose holiness, did God not pay him at last? When Jesus Christ chose obedience, did God not give Him a new name? Trust this God and never forget that: “God does not pay at the end of every week or month, but He pays at last.”
See Psalm 34:10, and declare many times: My God is a rewarder. I will trust Him. Shame shall be far from my address.”

Topic: MAKE JESUS BOTH LORD AND CHRIST!
( COLOSSIANS 1:12-20; MATTHEW 6:33).
A Pastor was struggling to prepare his sermon and didn’t want to be disturbedby his five year-old daughter, so he romoved a map of the world from his study, tore it into pieces and gave it to his daughter to assemble with the promise that he would answer all her questions and play with her when she was done. He knew she would never be able to fix it. To his amazement, in less than five minutes, she returned to him in his study with the map in perfect shape, every continent and every country in its place. The surprised father asked, “Honey, youdon’t know anything about geography, so how did you fix the world so easily and quickly?”
The five year-old girl smiled sweetly and replied, “The picture of JESUS was at the back of the map and I knew that if I have JESUS in the right place, the whole world would be in perfect shape.” That was just the right inspiration he needed for his sermon. He thanked his daughter and prepared a powerful sermon on the subject: FIX YOUR WORLD BY PLACING JESUS AT THE RIGHT PLACE. What the Holy Ghost is saying to a user of today’s devotional is that to bring perfect order , peace and sanity into your life and ministry, the perfect formula is: Just place the LORD JESUS in His rightful place and every other thing will fall into place. This is because today’s first scripture verse 17 says: “In Him, all things consist.”
Also Hebrews 1:3 syas: “He upholds all things by the word of His power.” That means He is the center of all things. Wow! He is the center of health, wealth, fame, marital peace and uncommon grace! And unless He becomes your central focus, all other things will fall apart. Ezra Taft Benson quipped: “When we put God first, all other things fall into their proper place or drop out of our lives.” Pray now!
PRAYER POINTS: Take song 2: stand up for Jesus……….
1. Thank God for today’s word and pray as you are led!
2. Lord, I surrender the following issues of my life and family ( mention areas where you you think you have not surrendered all).
3. Every power that hates to see me laugh, scatter unto desolation now in Jesus Christ name.
4. O Lord, as I make You te center of all things, arise and connect me to those who will bless my life, family and ministry in Jesus Christ name.
5. Pray about today seriously and any other issue(s) affecting your peace.

Topic: I REFUSE EMERGENCY DEATH!
( HEBREW 9:27; PSALM 91:1 -END).
Welcome to today’s devotional with the Shephard of your soul. In this second half of the year, the Holy Ghost wants you to know that there is a difference between being killed and dying. To be killed means to die before your time without fulfilling your destiny or fulfilling the number of your God-appointed days! But to die means to fulfil the number of your God-appointed days. In this year of EVIDENCE, the Holy Ghost is asking you to cancel DEATH BY MISTAKE which is also called EMERGENCY DEATH. Death by mistake or emergency death is also called, THE DEATH OF A FOOL ( 2 Samuel 3:33). I am led to ask: “If Jesus tarries on His retuen, will you be killed or will you die on this earth?”
Note that te life expectancy of an African has risen to between 59 and 60 years. European life expectancy is between 75 and 81 years. North American life expectancy is between 77 and 81 years. Years ago, The UNO (United Nations Organisation) forecasted that most Africans would not see their 48th bithday. Wow! While the United Nations continue to release reports of caution and fear, you must listen to what the “Covenant of long life” says concerning you and your family: Heb 9:27 proclaims: “It is appointed for a man to die but once………”Notice that it did not say, “It is appointed for a man to be killed but once.” So in this fasting programme and beyond, decree that you shall not be killed by armed robbers, sickness and diseases, accidents, hired assasins or manipulation such as witches and wizards, etc.
Psalm 91:16 declares: “With a long life will I satisfy him and shew him my salvation.” The, Isaiah 46: 4 summarizes: “And even to your old age, I am he, and even to hoars hais( gray hairs) will I carry you. I have made and I will bear; even I will carry and will deliver you.” Yes! This is the covenant of long life: Death in old age with satisfation! Remind God daily of this word (covenant of long life). Stand in the gap for your loved ones using the same covenant. You will not die before your time! You cannot be touched and you cannot be killed. Your life and ministry are too hot for Satan now! But stay within the hedge and long life will be your EVIDENCE! Amen!
TODAY is the last-day anointing service at Manna Mountain Ogudu-Orioke, Lagos Nigeria, Time: 7am. Come with your written prayer points and expectations! I shall lay hands on everyone present! Don’t quit now!
Today is DAY 14 of the 14-day fasting programme. PRAY THE GENERAL PRAYERS ON PAGE 93 AND PRAYERSON PAGE 84 OF THE “WAR AGAINST HAMAN -12” booklet.

TODAY FRIDAY 21ST, JULY 2017.
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: Lev. 16 :20 - 34.
TOPIC: NOT AN ORDINARY PERSON 1.
TEXT: "I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. "Psalm 82 :6.
Everyone is not the same. There is a great deal of difference between a Christian and an unbeliever.
Your redemption has translated you to specie of being; you are not an ordinary person.
You are a god, the child of the Almighty God.
You are born of the Spirit, not of flesh and blood; therefore immune to sicknesses and disease. You are a mobile temple, a fire carrying divinity Inside of you. (1.Cor.3 :16, 1 Jn. 4 :4)
You are not predictable, you cannot be limited by the kingdom of darkness; natural forces or human operations.
Your operations are higher than them but they cannot deny your sound! "The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth; so is everyone that is born of spirit ". John 3 :8.
In Christ Jesus, (Ephesians 2 :6) you are seated in the heavenly places far above all dominion (Ephesians 1 :21).
Do not therefore allow the threats of the enemy to get at you.
You have the power to decide what happens around you. Nothing outside God should affect you because in the constituency where you're operating from, only the will of God stands.
I pray for you, may the reality of who you really are, dawn on you by fire.
PRAYER
O God, my Father, as I pray now, may the reality of who I am dawn on me by fire.
See From A Higher Realm
While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal (2 Corinthians 4:18).
The preceding Scripture to our opening verse says, “For our light affliction, which is but for a moment…” (2 Corinthians 4:17). In other words, that pain or that unpleasant situation may have been for five or ten years, but it’s subject to change, and it’ll work for you a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory. How? The answer is in the opening verse: “While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.”
Stop looking at your present physical condition or how much you have in the bank or what people are saying about you. See the invisible! When you see the invisible, the wilderness experience will end. See God doing great things in your life. See yourself prosperous, healthy, vibrant and strong. See yourself walking in victory.
See yourself walking in the glory of God.
This brings to mind the story of Abraham in Genesis 17:4-5. God changed Abraham’s name from Abram when he had no physical descendants. Abraham means “father of many” while Abram means “assumed father.” So, even when He had no children, God called him the father of many. God was teaching him to see the invisible.
The Apostle Paul, in Romans 4:17, explains to us that Abraham believed what God had said concerning him: “(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.”
He took his gaze off what his physical senses dictated to him and looked at the invisible through the eyes of the spirit. He saw himself as the father of many, just as God had said. What has God made you? In your life, you must boldly declare who you really are. Someone might say, “Oh God, I’m such a failure; I’ve failed in everything. I’m so fed up with life.”
Change your vision. Begin to see from another perspective. See the invisible. Meditate on, and declare what God has said about you. When you say what God has said about you, your soul will be adjusted to act that way. You need to reprogramme your life with the Word of God. Whatever God has said about you, accept it; believe it, and say it to yourself consistently (Hebrews 13:5-6).
PRAYER
I look away from all distracting situations and fix my gaze upon Jesus, the author and finisher of my faith. I see victory, health, prosperity and triumph, now and always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THEME: ABANDONING GOD’S ASSIGNMENT?
Memorise:
Ye looked for much, and, lo it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the Lord of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house.
Haggai 1:9
Read: Haggai 1:5-11
1:5 Now therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways.
1:6 Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.
1:7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways.
1:8 Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith the Lord.
1:9 Ye looked for much, and, lo it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the Lord of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house.
1:10 Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit.
1:11 And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the corn, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labour of the hands.
Message:
"What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?" Romans 8:31
The above scripture clearly tells us that God can be for us. It is so reassuring to know that God can stand for you. Whenever He is for you, anyone against you is in trouble. However, do you know that just as God can be for you, He can also be against you? Yes, He can! If you check through the scriptures, you will see many instances where God stirred up the enemies of his children to fight against them (Judges 4:1-3, Judges 6:1-10). They remained defeated until they realized their evil, repented and ran back to God. Judges 13:1 says,
“And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.”
Every time you turn away from God, violate His word or live to gratify your fleshly lusts, you turn Him against you.
Moreover, God can personally fight or frustrate the efforts of His children. In our Bible reading, because some people refused to complete the building of God’s house, he decided to frustrate their personal efforts. It is frightening to see the extent God can go to in fighting His own children! In Haggai 1:6, it is written that his people worked like elephants but brought harvest of ants. They ate but were never satisfied, and their thirst could not be quenched no matter how much water they drank. No matter how many clothes they wore, they could not get warm. They worked and were paid, but kept losing their wages. Haggai 1:9 even goes further to say that if they managed to bring in any little gain, God would blow it away. God also prevented the heavens from releasing rain and the earth from releasing its increase. He went further to declare a famine on their land. This was God fighting His children and not any devil! Why the fight? It was because they abandoned God’s house and focused on building their own mansions with the resources God had given them. If you abandon God’s assignment or project in pursuit of yours, you are calling for God’s hammer. In any way you have erred, repent today and return to what you abandoned, and the Lord will turn away from His anger.
Prayer Point:
Father, prosper all your missionaries in mission fields across the globe. Back them up with signs and wonders. Help them to win souls and to disciple your end-time army.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
2 Samuel 15-16
Ezekiel 12:7-20
Topic: THIS SECOND HALF: THE STATUS QUO MUST END!
( 1 CHRONICLES 4:9-10; 2 KINGS 6:1-12).
Life will generally give you what you desire or demand and not what you deserve! 2Kings 6:1-2 – today’s second scripture, reveals thus: “And the sons of the Prophet said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with theeis too strait for us. Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place here, where we may dwell. And he answered,’ Go ye.” This is an example of people who were tired of the STATUS QUI; a people who were fed up with the once-upon –a-time kind of life. These were folks who were extremely tired with the way things were with them! These sons of the prophets said (paraphrased): “ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! THIS PLACE IS TOO STRAIT FOR US. THIS STATUS QUO MUST END.”
In oher words, they were saying, “We Are More Than This! We Are Tired Of Being Confined, Caged And Incapacitated; We Desire And Demand The Enlargement Of Our Coast.” They were angry with the STATUS QUO and by the grace of God, every STATUS QUO in your life, family and ministry will be demolished in this 14-day fasting programme! You are about to walk out of your COMFORT ZONE (Stagnated progress) into your CRUISING ZONE( Accelerated progress)! Your Horizon is about to widen and gaze will be broarder! I see LIMITS and LIMITATIONS bombed into pieces!
Declare aloud now: “ I AM MORE THAN THIS! I am moving from my COMFORT ZONE into my CRUISING ZONE! I must rise above the STATUS QUO! My ministry coast must enlarge! My vision and dream must enlarge! My marriage coast must enlarge! My business coast, my financial coast, my career coast, my academic coast, etc, must enlarge by fire!” I Prophesy: In this 14-day fasting programme and at the last-day WORLDWIDE ANOINTING SERVICE, July 22nd, “Jehovah the STATUS QUO BREAKER” shall enforce the enlargement of your coast by fire and the arrows of delay manufacturers (every ACHAN) will catch fire and backfire in the name of Jesus Christ.

Topic: DELAY MEANS HE IS WORKING!
(JOHN 11:1-6;17,21).
Welcome! Isaiah 55:8-9 reveals: “For My Thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways,” saith the LORD. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.” God is simply not poerating with our earthly calendar. The Bible says a thousand years is like a day and a day is like a thousand years in His sight! So what we call delay is simply, God operating according to His divine calendar which is different from ours. “He makes all things beautiful in HIS OWN TIME.” AND DON’T FORGET THAT THE WORD SAYS THERE IS A SEASON AND A TIME FOR EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN (HEAVENS)! EVERYTHING INCLUDES YOUR TESTIMONY!
And when HIS TIME does not tally with OUR TIME, we tend to say that He is slow, late and He delays. Whatever He allows, whether good or bad, positive or negative, is for your ultimate good AT LAST. Note: AT LAST! That means the delay may not make sense NOW but AT LAST, IN THE END, YOU WILL KNOW WHY! Some years ago, there was a young man who was travelling from Lagos to Ondo State of Nigeria. He was the first passenger to board the 504 Saloon-Wagon Car. Shortlybefore take-off from Lagos, the driver suddenly picked a quarrel with him, which forced him out of the vehicle. His programme to leave Lagos early was disrupted and he was angry. He had to board the next car. Shortly, after some kilometers, precisely at a city called Ijebu Ode, they encountered the wreckage of the car from which he was forced out. Everybody in the vehicle including the driver had died.
The question is: “What actually forced that young man out of the car?” Child of God, when God delays, He is not sleeping; He is working! “All things work together for good, to them that love God.” ALL THINGS –including this delay battle confronting you! And a song writer says: “It’s intentional.” God is an intentional God and His intentions are pure and faultless! See our anchor scripture Vs. 21: “Then said Martha unto Jesus, ‘Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.” Martha was saying in essence, “Jesus, You are very, very late!” And that is how millions think today!
But the Holy Ghost is saying to a user of today’s devotional that the delay of God is meant for your dancing and evidence and it will turn out for your good. That “LAZARUS” will rise again! Continue this fast and be at the last-day anointing service at Manna Mountain Ogudu-Orioke, Lagos Nigeria on Saturday July 22nd 7am. Come with faith, anointing oil, your written prayer points, any point of contact and expectation! I shall lay hands on everyone present! Don’t quit now!

Topic: WHO HAS THE FINAL SAY?
LAMENTATIONS 3:31-37; ISAIAH 10:1-2).
Welcome! The story was told by a man of God, of a sister from a polygamous family who broke the demonic law of limitation by being the first and only one to receive a University education out of 17 children from that family. She also broke the rule by being the first and the only one to get married in that family. Other children were unmarried, failures, “area boys/girls,” robbers, and had disgraceful lifestyles in their communities.
On her wedding day, the senior witch and first wife of her father danced to her side and whispered in her ears that their coven only permitted her to go thus far, and from then on, she would never get pregnant! The witch danced away and nobody knew what she said except the bride. From that day and for the next two years, her menstruation ceased completely until serious prayers by a man of God brought forth her turning point. Wow! Great God! Note that the witch told her, she would never get pregnant! That was a satanic judgement and sentence against her marital destiny because she broke a demonic law that nobody would amount to anything in her family bloodline.
But who has the final say? Vs. 37 of today’s scripture sounds like a bomb, “Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?” God is a specialist in upturning and overturning demonic sentences, satanic decrees, witchcraft judgements and captivity to the favor of His children (Psalm 126: 1)! Yes, it took some years of pain, agony and shame, but God turned her pain to gain, her agony to glory and her shame to fame. That shall be your story and experience in this fasting programme and beyond.
Recall that in the story above,the witch declared to the sister that “She would never get pregnant.” That was a statement of LIMITATION! It is an evil verdict of a wicked ACHAN ( DELAY AGENT)! That was a DEMONIC ROADBLOCK and a TESTIMONY BLOCKER! But the GOD OF TURNING POINT turned it all round and that shall be your story in this fasting programme and beyond. Be at the last-day anointing service at Manna Mountaing Ogudu-Orioke, Lagos Nigeria on Saturday July 22nd 7am. Come with faith, anointing oil, your written prayer points, any point of contact and expectation!
I shall lay hands on everyone present! Don’t quit now! Sow your “ACHAN-MUST-DIE/ ANTI-DELAY SEED” INTO ANY ACCOUNT ON PAGE 29 OF ODM OE PAGE 44 OF “WAR AGAINST HAMAN -12” booklet and get your ANTI-DELAY PSALM which you will pray for 3 weeks. Only YOUR GOD has the FINAL SAY! Hold on and hold out!
Today is DAY 10 of the 14-day fasting programme. PRAY THE GENERAL PRAYERS ON PAGE 93 AND PRAYERS ON PAGE 62 OF THE “WAR AGAINST HAMAN -12 booklet.
PRAYER POINTS: Take song 2: Stand up for Jesus………
1. Satan, you are a liar! Jehovah God has the final say in my life and ministry.

The Restoration Apostle Johnson Suleman again receives an Award...
Apostle Johnson Suleman has been given a Leadership award for empowerment.
For his giant strides in providing succor to millions of Nigerian youth and women through his empowerment program.
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: Exo. 16 :1 - 21.
TOPIC: GOD OF MIRACLE.
TEXT: "Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!" Psalm 107 :21.
ONE major thing that characterizes the things of God is that they are wondrous.
With God there are no impossibilities.
He knows no limitations and the limitless and boundless acts possible that exist in His personality is what makes him a miracle worker.
God delights in performing wonders and miracles acts for His people to cross and go to their property where He had prepared for them.
The amazing things is that He didn't part the sea so they could go to heaven, but for them to go to their own inheritance.
This makes us know that God is ready to perform any kind of miracle just for you to live a comfortable life here on earth.
Remember he has to put money in the mouth of a fish just to save himself and his disciples the embarrassment from the tax collectors.
Though it may look impossible but not with our miracle working God.
He bastardized natural laws just to give Gideon victory in the battle field.
Child of God, fear not because the miracle working God that can do anything for your sake is by your side.
PRAYER
My Father, my Father, let your miracle power be made visible in all that concerns me, in Jesus name.
THEME: NO SHAKING!
Memorise:
Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Psalm 46:2
Read: Psalm 46:1-3
46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
46:2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
46:3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof.
Message:
When you have God as your Refuge, you stand to derive numerous benefits. Having God as your Refuge places you in an advantageous position and makes you truly blessed. One of the blessings that money cannot buy is having divine cover over your life that keeps you safe from the enemy. If you consider your strengths and weaknesses, and take a stock of the opportunities and threats you are exposed to continuously, you will realize that having God as a Refuge is a priceless benefit indeed. With God as your cover, you are shielded from so many attacks of the enemy. Even the losses that are programmed to come your way are terminated by God before they get to you. If you are not yet enjoying the strength of God’s cover, you are experiencing a big minus in your life.
Another benefit of having God as your Refuge is that His strength will be made available to help you in the time of trouble. Speaking about God’s strength, 1 Corinthians 1:25b gives this insight:
“…. and the weakness of God is stronger than men.”
In several scriptures, Good promises to help us in the time of need. For instance, Psalm 50:15 says,
“And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.”
If God is not your Refuge and you call on Him when you need help, He may not respond to you. On the other hand, He easily responds to those under His cover. Are you under God’s cover? Is He your Refuge?
Moreover, when God is your Refuge, no matter what happens, there is no cause for alarm. Just think about this for a minute: Psalm 46:2-3 says that as you are under God’s cover, when there is an earthquake and uproar in the seas or even if the mountains are blown off their locations, you will still be safe where you are. Praise God! It is an anomaly for you to be under God’s protective cover and still be afraid of storms of life. Beloved, do not be scared of the storms confronting you! Don’t be afraid of the earthquake! Don’t even shake when the unmovable are moved from their secured places. Why? As long as God is your Refuge, you cannot be moved. Whatever cannot move God cannot move you. If out of fear, you have been displaced from under God’s cover, in the Name of Jesus Christ, as you repent of your lack of faith, the Lord will return you to the place of His refuge! With God as your Refuge, there is no shaking for you!
Prayer Point:
Father, because You are my Refuge, let everything that is designed to shake me fail.

HYMN 9: ON THE HILL FAR AWAY
1. On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suff’ring and shame;
And I love that old cross where the Dearest and Best
For a world of lost sinners was slain.
Refrain:
So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it someday for a crown.
2. Oh, that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
Has a wondrous attraction for me;
For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above
To bear it to dark Calvary.
Refrain:
3. In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
A wondrous beauty I see,
For ’twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
To pardon and sanctify me.
Refrain:
4. To the old rugged cross I will ever be true;
Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
Then He’ll call me someday to my home far away,
Where His glory forever I’ll share.
Refrain
The Word Is Trustworthy
For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty (2 Peter 1:16).
God’s Word is absolutely trustworthy and dependable. Matthew 24:35 says, “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.” The Scriptures are proven to be the Word of God: the account of Jesus Christ and His work of redemption, His vicarious death, burial, resurrection, and ascension to glory. The entire Scriptures chronicle everything that’s involved in His redemptive work, the implication of all that He accomplished on our behalf, and the testament sealed in His death. Not only are these accounts authentic and trustworthy as communicated to us in the Scriptures, they were delivered to us to live by.
For example, Peter refers to the narrative in Matthew 17 in his second epistle. He explained how they (Peter, James and John) were “eyewitnesses of His majesty”—the transfiguration
, where Jesus’ face shone like the sun, and His clothes dazzled. They saw Moses and Elijah appear on the mount. They even heard a voice from heaven which said, “…This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him” (Matthew 17:5).
Yet, by the Spirit, he tells us “We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts” (2 Peter 1:19). Even though they were eyewitnesses of that glory, there was something more trustworthy than their experience. So, beyond the beauties and the glorious experiences they had, Peter reckoned that the Word was surer than experience.
Hold on to God’s Word; it’s a more sure word than our experiences! Imagine if you had symptoms of pains or sickness in your body, don’t budge. Use the word against it.
The Word is absolutely trustworthy and dependable. You may not feel like it’s working out; things may not seem to be changing on the outside, but hold on to the Word! Keep declaring the Word to yourself, to God, and concerning that situation, until you have the note of victory in your spirit.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the power of your eternal Word that’s at work in me today, producing in me the fruit of it’s message, having embraced it as
the more sure Word of prophecy—to live by, and build my life on! By the power of your Word, I win in the good fight of faith today, and every day, in the Name of Jesus. Amen.

Topic: YOU SHALL DANCE YOUR DANCE!
( 1 SAMUEL 18:6-12).
Welcome to another divine encounter with our God! See this testimony:
“Dear Bishop, God healed me of secondary hemorrhage. Since September last year, my menstrual flow ceased. I did many tests and took all the drugs that the Doctor prescribed but to no avail. But on the 29th of January this year, just after the WORLD ANOINTING SERVICE NIGHT, I receieved my healing. This can only be the God of this commission. Please withhold my name. Miss P.U.”
The God of OUR DAILY MANNA restored her song and her dancing and that shall be your story in this fasting programme and beyond! See also these amazing testimonies from an ODM user in MALAWI:
“I am a lady from Malawi and have been using ODM for the past three years. God has been good and very faithful, but this year, the testimonies have been too hot to handle. It has left me in tears. During the last 2017 January 21-day fasting program, I had three petitions:
1. To remove ROADBLOCKS that caused unknown DELAY for me not to graduate from my Masters programme. The answer came like a fllod withing the fasting period whereby I was sent a schedule for submission of papers for award presentation. Dates were then scheduled for the graduation (June 2017).
2. To romove the EMBARGO that stopped my husband’s promotion after working in the same position for over 10 years. God answered it by fire in February when my husband received a letter of promotion. In April, favor fell on him again when his company awarded him a scolarship for further studies in his career.
3. T provide me with a good job at the organization where I was working which would enable me to spend much time with my family at home. In April, God provided an answer miraculously when I was offered to be interviewed for the position that never existed before, but God created it. The process of interviews was not easy but God actually handpicked me and offered me the post. Glory to God!
Pastor, all these testimonies look like a lie to us and when I am sharing them, they sound like I am boasting but this is real. EVIDENCE after EVIDENCE within a short period of time. Glory be to GOD! From Chikodi, Blantyre( chisusei@gmail.
com).”
WONDERFUL GOD! I prophesy again to you as I am commanded: The testimony that will look like a LIE, yet it is TRUE shall locate you in this fasting programme and beyond in Jesus Christ name. You shall be selected above your superiors! Just as today’s scripture Vs. 6 said the women danced with David, so shall men and women dance with you in Jesus Christ name!
Pray the prayers in the “WAR AGAINST HAMAN -12” booklet as indicated below, then be at the Lagos Anointing Service or your viewing centres ( See page 52 of ODM ). I shall lay hands on everyone at the Lagos service. Never forget to sow your “ACHAN-MUST-DIE / ANTI-DELAY SEED” and you will get an ANTI-DELAY Psalm to be prayed for 3 weeks! Oh! God is writing your new song! Amen!
Today is DAY 9 of the 14-day fasting programme. PRAY THE GENERAL PRAYERS ON PAGE 53 AND PRAYERS ON PAGE 62 OF THE “WAR AGAINST HAMAN -12” booklet.
PRAYER POINT: Take Song 1: Through the love of God…………

THEME: SALVATION: HOW GENUINE?
Memorise:
He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. Proverbs 28:13
Read: 2 CORINTHIANS 7:9-11
7:9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.
7:10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
7:11 For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.
Message:
God’s offer of salvation is for all those who come to Him. To access this salvation however, there are certain criteria you must meet. For instance, you cannot experience salvation without genuine repentance. Unfortunately, there are people who think that they can be saved even without repenting from their sins. Some people believe that responding to an altar call for salvation is enough. No, it is not! Can you believe that when some people come out to answer an altar call, instead of repenting of their sinful lifestyles, they take pictures? Those who do so can only come out and go back the same way they came. This will not be your portion in Jesus’ Name! Heaven’s demands for obtaining salvation are clearly stated in Proverbs 28:13:
“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.”
If you do not satisfy Heaven’s demand of confessing your sins to God and forsaking your sinful lifestyle, you will never be saved. If you claim to be born again, how did you get saved? Did you confess your sins to God out of a sorrowful heart and resolve not to return to your sinful lifestyle? If your salvation lacks this key foundational pillar, you will need to revisit the salvation experience.
In Luke 13:2-5, Jesus plainly taught His hearers that except they repented, they would perish like those who went before them. God does not want anyone to perish, but He wants us all to repent (2 Peter 3:9). God wants you to change your ways and to stop doing the wicked things you do. It is then you will obtain mercy from him. Today, the term “born again” has been so abused. Many people say they are born again but they do not even know what it means. If you are truly born again, you will receive genuine salvation that will completely turn your life around (2 Corinthians 5:17). When you come out to receive Jesus, you come out because you are truly sorry for your sins; you come out with a determination to change your ways. You need to come to the altar of God crying to Him for help, not only to forgive you your sins but to also change you inside out. When you do this, you will obtain salvation. 2 Corinthians 7:10 says it is godly sorrow that brings about repentance that yields salvation. Are you really born again? If your salvation is not genuine, go back to the cross of Calvary today!
Key Point:
Fake salvation can never produce the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

Topic: JEHOVAH THE RULE CHANGER!
( DANIEL 2:16-28).
The Bible opens up with this emphatic statement as found in Genesis 1:1 – “in the beginning God………” It implies that there was no beginning without God. It means therefore, that before humanity, there was divinity! All rules be it scientific, plotical, biological, medical, academic, corporate, ancestral, traditional, cultural, marital, business, financial, career/professional rules, are earthly and they operate in the natural. But God can change them at will ( today’s scripture, Vs. 21). Therefore, anytimeany rule, law or protocol will affect His purpose for your life, family or ministry, He will intervene to change them at will.
See below what your great God has done:
“Dear man of God, my name is Awogbade Adekoyejo. I awant to share my testimony to the glory of ‘Jehovah Jump Protocol.’ Sir, please I want you to publish it to the glory of God. I passed out of school in the year 2010; since then, I have been trusting God for the release of my rsults. I moved from one mountain to another; I prayed and fasted but all to no avail. People called me a failure, even to my face. Some said I had been rusticated and to be honest, I was unable to defend myself. Life has been miserable for me for the last 7 years, but I had faith that God wanted to use my situation to glorify himself! Even when everybody gave up on me, I never gave up in trusting God; I keyed into people’s testimonies in ODM, I followed instructions from the man of God and believed that one day, I would sing my new song.
According to the topic of ODM of 7th March 2017 which said every “No” shall become “Yes” I prayed all the prayer points with holy aggression and before 12 noon that same day, I received a text message from the school management that my result was ready for collection. To the glory of God, I went to the school on the 16th of March and collected my result that day. This is ‘EVIDENCE’ indeed! Contrary to the existing laid down rule that any student will lose his/her studenship after spending more than 2-3 years off campus, my result was released to me after 7 years and I can now say bodly that I am a graduate!
Pastor, I pray that God will continue to use you to bless this generation and generations to come in Jesus Christ name. You will make heaven in Jesus Christ name (awogbadekoyejo
07@gmail.com ).” Wow! This brother visited so many mountains/prayer house/ churches but it was just one day’s write-up prayers from this ODM booklet that changed his story after 7 years! Thank you Jesus! I Prophesy: AS YOU HOLD ON, YOUR OWN DAY SHALL COME VERY SOON AND THAT DELAY SHALL EXPIRE in Jesus Christ name!
The God of Our Daily Manna will deal with every delay agent (ACHAN) and turn your shame to fame. Continue with this fast! Just as the school changed the rule for this brother, every rule working against you shall scatter in this 14-day fasting program and at the last day Lagos Anointing Service where I shall lay hands on everyone present as I was directed. Be there!
Today is DAY & of the 14-day fasting program. PRAY THE GENERAL PRAYERS ON PAGE 93 AND PRAYERS ON PAGE 53 OF THE “WAR AGAINST HAMAN -12” booklet. Sow your “Achan-must-die / Anti-delay Seed” today and get your anti-delay Psalm!
PRAYER POINT: Take the above prayers and take any worship song.

The big cats sneaked out of Kruger park - a major tourist attraction which is almost the size of Belgium - on Sunday night.
They have now been spotted in Matsulu village outside the park.
Livestock as well as people are at risk of attack as the area around Kruger also contains farms which raise cattle.
Rangers are now searching for the animals and residents have been warned to be "extra vigilant" and report any sightings of the creatures.
The park is a major tourist attraction in South Africa
The park, which covers an area of 7,523 sq miles and borders Zimbabwe and Mozambique, is home to about 1,500 lions.
The latest incident comes two months after five other lions escaped from the park.
Four were re-captured in neighbouring farms and one is still on the loose.
Officials have said animals sometimes sneak out through dry river beds, or use holes dug out by other creatures near barrier fences.

God's Oracle Apostle Prof. Johnson Suleman, has urged Nigerians to pray for the country and the quick recovery of President Muhammadu Buhari. The president left the country for health treatment close to two months ago.
During the ‘Divine Intervention Service’ which held on Wednesday 5th and Thursday 6th of July, 2017, at the headquarters of the Omega Fire Ministries, International Worship Centre, Auchi, Edo State, the famous preacher said that as Nigerians, we have no choice than to wish our dear country well, and the president.
Apostle Suleman has remained consistent with his vow never to keep silent in the face of any believer attacking the other believer, however, he appealed to both Muslims and Christians to maintain peace and shun violence.
“As Nigerians, we have no choice but to pray for our dear country. We need peace in Nigeria and we are going to pray for Nigeria and the president. From the North to the West to the South to the East, I know a certain people are agitating while other people are raising their voice. If there is crisis in Nigeria, it will consume all of us. We don’t need crisis we need peace. You cannot talk of development, jobs and infrastructure without peace. So, every believer must work and pray for peace, we want peace. Let’s not be part of violence. Success, expansion, infrastructural development, emancipation of any dimension, all come on the platform of peace. When there is no peace there can’t be progress. When there is no peace there can’t be opportunities because people that would want to invest in the country will not come if we have crisis.”
Continuing, the renowned cleric said; “It is an irresponsible act for anyone to be wishing the president death. Nobody who has a good heart will be wishing a leader death. You don’t wish your leader death. Nigerians should be careful as only God has the power of life and death. Stop wishing the president death.
If your husband or wife is sick, would you wish him or her death? Buhari is somebody’s husband and father. If your father is sick, would you wish him death? I know that what I’m saying now some Christians won’t like it. But that is the truth. Stop wishing the president death. Pray for his health, life belongs to God. I see peace in Nigeria and there will be peace in Nigeria.”
Speaking against the backdrop of the insinuation that some preachers do incite violence, Apostle Suleman denied ever inciting violence but said he would maintain his stand against any attempt at killing Christians in a nation that belongs to all.
“I don’t incite violence, I have never incited violence. But no true man of God who loves his people would keep burying them and do nothing about it,” he notes.
Meanwhile, the preacher popularly referred as ‘The Restoration Apostle’ will take the ministry’s healing and miracle conference, ‘Help From Above’ to Minnesota, America, on 18th and 19th of July, 2017. He will return to Nigeria for the Umuahia, Abia State edition of the conference between Monday 24th and Tuesday 25th of July, 2017. The International Ministers’ Conference holds in Cameroon on the third of August, 2017, a day after the two-day ‘Help From Above’ conference hosting in Limbe, Cameroon. On the 7thand 8th of August, 2017, the ‘Help From Above’ train will move to Vienna, Austria.

THEME: LEAVE A MARK
Memorise:
That the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Thessalonians 1:12
Read: Acts 19:8-10
19: 8 And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.
19:9 But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.
19:10 And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
Message:
If you will be used by God to perform signs and wonders in these last days, you must have the heart of a missionary or church planter. In the days of early church, although there was a church in Jerusalem, Philip left his base and went to plant another church in Samaria (Acts 8:5). If God sees you as an incurable church planter, he will gladly use you in the miraculous. Take for instance Paul the apostle: today you would find him in Corinth, tomorrow he would be in Galatia and the next time, you would hear of him being in Colossae. As he travelled round these countries and cities, he kept planting churches. He hardly visited a city without leaving a mark behind for God’s Kingdom. No wonder the Bible records that the kind of miracles God performed through Paul were quite outstanding. Acts 19:11-12 says,
“And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.”
There are some lessons we can learn from the experience of Paul in this regard. The first is that having the opportunity to travel around the globe is a great privilege. There are people who enjoy travelling from one country to another. There are some people who are required by their official assignment or business transactions to move across countries. Some go to other places for school or simply on vacation. Whatever the reason for your travels, it is a great privilege. Every Christian traveller is expected to leave a godly mark behind in the places he or she visits. How can you visit a country for a week or two and not share the gospel of Jesus Christ with at least one person? You as a true believer in Christ should be able to have converts in the different countries you visit, and if you are there for a minimum of three to six months, you should be able to start a house fellowship, or even a church. By doing this, you will be opening the door for God to use you for signs and wonders. Have you travelled away from home without winning souls for Christ or establishing a house fellowship or church for His Name? Are you ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ? Use the opportunity of your travels across different locations to glorify God. Travelling is meaningful if you can leave a mark of God’s Kingdom behind.
Key Point:
One way of becoming a father of many nations is to have converts in every country you visit.

HYMN 13: WONDERFUL STORY OF LOVE
1. Wonderful story of love;
Tell it to me again;
Wonderful story of love;
Wake the immortal strain!
Angels with rapture announce it,
Shepherds with wonder receive it;
Sinner, oh, won’t you believe it?
Wonderful story of love.
Refrain:
Wonderful! Wonderful!
Wonderful, wonderful story of love.
2. Wonderful story of love;
Though you are far away;
Wonderful story of love;
Still He doth call today;
Calling from Calvary’s mountain,
Down from the crystal-bright fountain,
E’en from the dawn of creation,
Wonderful story of love.
Refrain:
3. Wonderful story of love;
Jesus provides a rest;
Wonderful story of love;
For all the pure and blest,
Rest in those mansions above us,
With those who’ve gone on before us,
Singing the rapturous chorus,
Wonderful story of love.
Refrain:
Transformation By The Word
...And have clothed yourselves with the new [spiritual self], which is [ever in the process of being] renewed and remolded into [fuller and more perfect knowledge upon] knowledge after the image (the likeness) of Him Who created it (Colossians 3:10 AMP).
I’ll like you to observe two words in the opening text. The first is “renewed” and the second is “knowledge.” The Greek word translated “renewed” is the verb “Anakainoo,” and it means a qualitative difference, not in how recent, but in terms of newness; a difference in quality. It’s a word that describes a keyword in 2 Corinthians 3:18: “But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.”
The Greek word translated “changed” above is “metamorphoo”; a change in state, form, kind, quality or glory; a continuous transformation. But how is it done? It’s
through knowledge; full and exact knowledge (Greek: “Epignosis”). This isn’t just the knowledge of mere or distant acquaintance, but one that relates with that which is known.
You’re being renewed in this full knowledge of God which you gain through meditation and revelation. In “Epignosis,” you become what you know; the knowledge that’s granted you transforms your life. As you receive God’s Word into you, your spirit is renewed, refreshed, polished anew; you glow more and more! It’s the reason you must let the Word of God dwell in you richly, because the more you know Him, the more the glory, anointing, graces, wisdom, and effectiveness of the Spirit, are manifested and increased in your life.
The Lord Jesus said in John 6:63, “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.” It’s only God’s Word that can impact, transform, brighten and glorify the human spirit. The Word works in your mind by renewing your thinking.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the knowledge of the Word and the transformation it brings to my spirit. As I meditate on the Word, my heart and mind are open for
a full, deep and intimate relationship with the Word. Therefore, I grow in grace, and continually, your glory, power, beauty and perfections are manifested and seen in and through me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Topic: AMAZING GOD: SHE SOWED THE PHONE!
( 2 CHRONICLES 20:20; LUKE 8:1-15).
Welcome to today’s devotional hour! Share with me the testimony below: “Dear Dr. Cris, I have held this testimony for too long. I read one of the passages in ODM where users were instructed to sow a seed to a pastor or a man of God but I ignored it, not because I didn’t want to give but because I didn’t have anything to give at that point. On that day, I was instructed by the Holy spirit to give my phone and I told myself, “Impossible” because I had no job and that was the only treasure I had then. I was so restless and my heart was so heavy until I accepted to give out the phone at about 10: 30 am that same day. So, I called a pastor friend who has a ministry at Eleme, Port Harcourt. To my greatest surprise, he was already on his way to Port Harcourt from Eleme,heading somewhere but stopped by to see me.
When I met him and told him the reason why I wanted to see him, he was dazzled and told me that he had been praying and believing God for a phone; that the one he had been using was very bad and had a bad screen. He was happy because my phone was a very recent model of Sony Ericsson Smart. He prayed for me and I left. Exactly seven days later, a call came through my cousin that I should come for a job with all the necessary documents because I was to travel off to start work the next day and that was how my life changed for good. That is why I really don’t joke with this Our daily Manna vision. Praise the Lord! From OSAZUWA osazuwa4jesus!
gmail.com ).”
What an amazing God! He is ever faithful! This pastor was in exact need of a phone and I was led that day to ask you to sow a seed to any man or woman of God. And thank God for a great testimony out of that obedience. Each prophetic instruction to sow a seed in this vision is for divine assignment to reach you by your God. In this 14-day prayer and fasting program/ beyond, you will never end up in shame as you obey and follow prophetic instructions backed by the Word even as the women ministred in Vs. 3 of today’s second scripture.
As you pray and fast, I am led to instruct you to still sow a sacrificial “ACHAN –MUST-DIE /ANTI-DELAY SEED.” And I shall send you A PSALM to break that delay which you shall pray for 3 weeks. See page 29 of Our Daily Manna or page 44 of “War Against Hama -12 booklet for account details and be at the last-day World Anointing Service at Ogudu-Orioke Lagod where I shall lay hands on everyone present. See page 52 for viewing centers worldwide! ACHAN MUST DIE! This is your year!
Today is DAY 3 of the 14-day fasting program. PRAY THE GENERAL PRAYERS ON PAGE 93 AND PRAYERS ON PAGE 42 OF THE “WAR AGAINST HAMAN -12 booklet. Continue this fast and be at the last-day anointing service at the Manna Mountain Ogudu-Orioke, Lagos, Nigeria on Saturday July 22nd 7am. Come with your written prayer points, any point of contact and expectation! I shall lay hands on everyone present! God of Joshua will show up!
PRAYER POINT: Take any song of worship as led.

THEME: THE LORD OUR REFUGE
Memorise:
But he passing through the midst of them went his way, Luke 4:30
Read: Luke 4:16-30
4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.
4:17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,
4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
4:19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
4:20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
4:21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.
4:22 And all bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph's son?
4:23 And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country.
4:24 And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in his own country.
4:25 But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;
4:26 But unto none of them was Elias sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow.
4:27 And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian.
4:28 And all they in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,
4:29 And rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong.
4:30 But he passing through the midst of them went his way,
Message:
God has several names and titles that will definitely benefit His children who have an understanding of the purpose and power in these names. It is one thing to know the names and titles of God and another thing to have the revelation behind them. When you receive the revelation of a particular name or title of God, you are brought into a covenant relationship with Him on the basis of that name, and as a result, you gain access to the benefits that such names or titles confer. May God reveal Himself to you by His Name today!
“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Psalm 46:1
One of God’s powerful titles is that He is our Refuge. A refuge is a kind of shelter or a place of protection from harm, danger, trouble or pursuit of the enemy. Why is God a refuge? It is because He knows that in this evil world, people will encounter lots of dangerous situations and circumstances at some point in their lives. Do you know that even our Lord Jesus Christ faced dangers many times? However, because God the Father was His refuge, He was protected from them all. One instance of this is recorded in today’s Bible reading. After hitting the people of his childhood town of Nazareth with the truth, they became very angry with Him and decided to kill Him. Luke 4:29 says,
“And rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong.”
This was just one of the several failed attempts made on the life of Jesus Christ until He voluntarily surrendered Himself to die at Calvary (John 10:17-18). From today, every attempt on your life shall fail in Jesus’ Name! You shall not die before your appointed time! Every plan of premature death against you and members of your family shall be disappointed! God is our refuge because of the dangerous and evil times we may have to live through. One fellow who knew God as his Refuge was David. He faced great storms! Although his eyes saw troubles and great dangers, he could still say that while passing through treacherous valleys, he would not be afraid (Psalm 23:4). He could say this because he knew God as his refuge. God is our Refuge because He knows that the enemy will definitely pursue His children, and so they will need a place to hide. From today, you will hide safely in the Lord! The Lord will be a sure Refuge for you in Jesus’ Name!
Prayer Point:
Father, in these perilous times, hide me under the shadow of Your wings.

HYMN 9: ON THE HILL FAR AWAY
1. On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suff’ring and shame;
And I love that old cross where the Dearest and Best
For a world of lost sinners was slain.
Refrain:
So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it someday for a crown.
2. Oh, that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
Has a wondrous attraction for me;
For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above
To bear it to dark Calvary.
Refrain:
3. In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
A wondrous beauty I see,
For ’twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
To pardon and sanctify me.
Refrain:
4. To the old rugged cross I will ever be true;
Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
Then He’ll call me someday to my home far away,
Where His glory forever I’ll share.
Refrain:
