Yes, we are prepping up for tomorrow's session.

Our Bi-monthly PRAYER & INTERCESSION. 1st Edition in July.

Everyone needs that One Big Break. (O.B.B)

David had just one major O.B.B. and the rest they say is History.

1 Samuel 18:30 MSG
Whenever the Philistine warlords came

***Conflict Of The Chosen***
There is always a conflict when God singles you out

#the conflict in Mary's life

The challenge of being chosen is a calling to a life of conflicts.

when you are chosen, you are chosen to do His will.

2
(Luke 1:29 & 30) “But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying (conflict begins!), and considered what manner of greeting this was.”30 Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.”

•to be chosen creates conflicts.

3.
“Conflict” means a clash of two or more things. ,in this context, clash of two natures.

Mary was not the only virgin of her day.

God could have called any of the virgins of her days, but God chose Mary.

She did not ask to be chosen.

She had to face shame,

4.
misunderstanding, and confrontation with Joseph.

Before this: She was happily engaged.

She was looking forward to her marriage. She was anticipating a normal life.

But now she faced the challenge of conflict because she was chosen – she was troubled!

5.
God brought the conflict by chosing her.
Mary could not keep her old lifestyle and her former friendships.
-Her former friends won’t understand.
-No matter what she says ,it will make no sense

How would she face Joseph?

She must have cried, “Lord, you cant do this to me”

Esther 2:2 MSG
the king's young attendants stepped in and got the ball rolling:"Let's begin a search for beautiful young virgins for d king.

Here, there was an occasion.
An open vacancy.👇🏼

👉🏼A void, only God could fill.
👉🏼A void, only God wld handpick & fill in

👉🏼The king's young attendants stepped in and got d ball rolling:

Unknown to anyone, God was already working behind d scenes.

👉🏼When the young attendant stepped in & got d ball rolling, no one knew where d "ball" was going to stop.

👇🏼Alas, the "ball" *stopped* at Esther's feet

*This New Year;*
👉🏼You will not lack a voice in the "palace"

👉🏼You will not lack men and women who will do the work for you...All you will do, is step in and sit on the throne.
👇🏼
Today, things will be set in motion that will eventually advance you to greatness.

There is something SINISTER about this picture...

I have often found this pix very intriguing.

Trust me, I am 150% in agreement, but, somehow, I have some reservations with d 1st statement... "It doesn't matter what she did"

I feel this isn't balanced in the real sense of it.

2.
I have witnessed a woman slap her husband while trying to mediate in a domestic issue, yet, the man kept his cool and honoured those of us there by not matching the slap with a corresponding slap or blow...not all men are this patient...

I have witnessed a woman break the

3.
windscreen of her husbands car because he came home late from work the previous night.

I once mediated in domestic violence where the wife hit her mother inlaw because, she (wife) could not stand the attention her hubby was giving his mum...

I have also seen several extreme

4.
cases too. While some kept their cool, others matched it "fire for fire"

#I believe women too should be patient and encouraged to have self control just like we all expect the same from men.

Take it or leave it, it takes grace & a full dose of selfcontrol to b patient

5.
with a violent spouse

Men and women both need to be reminded of the importance of patience, longsuffering, self-control and most importantly, how to bridle the tongue which is the major culprit in most domestic violence..

How balanced it would have been if that 1st statement

🔰 *PRAYER4NIGERIA* 🔰 Part 2

You and I know things are not alright in Nigeria.

If we don't take this nation back, "they" won't hand it over.

If we don't do what what needs to be done, the hardship will continue.

Enough of our SIDDON LOOK approach..

Enough of blaming those in their 70s & 80s that refuse to retire.....

we need to rise up and be seen to be ready & well equipped to take over Nigeria.

Sulking and social media commentaries are no criteria for winning elections or being called upon to take elective positions.

When the youths of this country refuse to cease or grab opportunities, then we shouldn't complain when incompetent and thieving people step in or cling on to power

Truth be told, we have allowed these crop of politicians to continually DISTRACT us at critical moments.

We either take it back now, or remain "WHERE" we are

"IN"

Judges 8:20 MSG
Then he spoke to Jether, his firstborn: "Get up and kill them." But he couldn't do it, couldn't draw his sword. He was afraid - he was still just a boy.

We could conclude that afterall, he was just a youth, agreed...

David had his chance against Goliath too, he took it & the rest they say is history.

When God reached out to David desiring to use him to save Israel from Goliath, it was up to David to arise.

It's T.O.N.I.G.H.T. live on Facebook. 8pm

Acts 13:17 MSG
God took a special interest in our ancestors, pulled our people who were beaten down in Egyptian exile to their feet, and led them out of there in grand style.

God has always had SPECIAL INTEREST IN YOU.

He did it

before, He will do it again tonight upon this Altar of Prayer.

You may have been beaten blueblack by the economic weather.

You may have been beaten down by circumstances.

You were only down. You are not out.

The Enemies rejoiced too quickly.

Micah 7:8 MSG
Don't, enemy, crow

over me. I'm down, but I'm not out. I'm sitting in the dark right now, but God is my light.

Acts 13V17b
and led them out of there in grand style.

You are coming out in grand style.

You are rising up in grand style.

The Lord will make it happen.

You are not coming out empty.

2Kings 6:2,5-7
Let’s go down to the Jordan River, where there are plenty of logs. There we can build a new place for us to meet.”“All right,” he told them, “go ahead.”
[ *5* ]But as one of them was cutting a tree, his ax head fell into the river. “Oh, sir!”

he cried. “It was a borrowed ax!”
👇🏼
👉🏼They wanted to expand.
👉🏼They wanted to grow..
👇🏼
They therefore, matched their words with action by borrowing Instruments of expansion.💪🏻
👇🏼
They got to work, but, encountered a major setback. That which they borrowed to enhance their

expansion "FELL"🙆🏽‍♂️
👇🏼
That which you borrowed for expansion may have " *fallen* "😢

👉🏼That which you borrowed, to enhance your business, ministry, marriage may have " *FALLEN* ," but, God will pick it up.

👉🏼God will pick up your business again.
👉🏼God will pick up your marriage

again.
👉🏼God will pick up that ministry again👇🏼
Whatever has fallen, shall be picked up.
👇🏼
You will take God where it fell, and the unfathomable will happen.👇🏼
[ *6* ]“Where did it fall?” the man of God asked. When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it into

the water at that spot. Then the ax head floated to the surface.
👇🏼
What happened, defied the law of gravity. The reverse happened.
Iron floated, while the wood sank.😱

👉🏼This year, you will have solutions that defy human comprehension.
👇🏼

Prayer & Intercession, tonight@8pm

Brethren, we all need a connection.

There are no self-made men or women.

Everyone was helped.

It was connection that got Joseph into the palace.

It was connection that got David into the palace

God used "mere servants" in the palace.

He can use anyone.

Daniel 1:3 KJV
And the king spake unto Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs, that he should bring certain of the children of Israel, and of the king's seed, and of the princes;

Ashpenaz was a master servant In the king's palace.

He represents men that are

strategically positioned.

1. Ashpenaz, was a eunuch and a scout too
2 . He had access to the corridors of power.
3. He had the king's ears.
4. His job was to identify talents, groom talents and then, open doors for them.
5. If you found favour in the eyes of Ashpenaz, you were

almost 100% certain, you will find favour before the king.
6. Ashpenaz's are major players.
7. Gifts and callings aren't enough, your need a SAMUEL, an ASHPENAZ.
8. You will meet your Ashpenaz and your Samuel this week
9. . Some have been playing at the rung of the ladder,

because, there was no man to connect them. (1 Samuel 9:17 The moment Samuel laid eyes on Saul...)

God will bring people into your life that will bring you into the palace

God will bring people into your space, that will turn your life around.

God will do it.
They may even look

WHY SHOOT OUR WOUNDED?
Yes, read that again...Why Shoot Our Wounded?

- Ps. 109:21-31
A Detroit newspaper reportd that a patient in a local hospital was shot and killed as he lay in his bed recovering from a previous gunshot wound. The victim had been listed in fair condition

prior to the shooting and was looking forward to going home. Hospital patients and employees were stunned. A spokesperson said that nothing like this had happened in the 50yrs of the hospital's existence.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could say the same for our churches?

Wouldn't it be encouraging if we were able to say that in 50yrs of meeting together for worship, fellowship and spiritual healing, we had not had a single instance of a wounded member being cut down by the unkindness of a fellow Christian?

Many among us have experienced the

pain that David expressed in Psalm 109. When he was hurt and vulnerable, insensitive people took advantage of him. Certainly, if he ad sinned, he needed their loving correction. what he didn't need was their scorn, gossip, and selfish neglect. Who shoots his foot after stubbing

his toe? No one in his right mind. Neither should anyone with the mind of Christ act unmercifully toward a wounded brother or sister in the body of Christ. Rather, we must "show mercy" (v.16).

Give me, Lord, a lot of mercy
For my fellow men each day,
Mercy in their many failures

A SHORT EXHORTATION...

Don't kid yourself, satan is well organized...

As ridiculous as it sounds, it's true.

When Jesus asked , what is your name in Mark 5:9 KJV
And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

2.
They were saying, we are a Regiment, we match together, we are orderly.

Believe it or not, Satan has a "highly organized and effective army" and this is because, his agents or demons are not disorganized as we erroneously think when they come against you and I.

3.
When Satan matches with his demons they all match with a "spirit" of unity.

They accused Jesus of casting out Satan in Satan's name..Luke 11:17-18 KJV
But He, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house

4.
divided against a house falleth. [18] If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub.

Jesus was saying that Satan's kingdom is not divided against itself.

5.
I will also like to remind you that from Genesis-Revelations you will never find demons fighting demons, principalities fighting principalities, witches fighting witches, its only when we take a look inside the church that we see so much of royal rumble. Ministers of d Gospel
