Day 6: BUILDING CONSISTENCY IN PRAYER

ACTS. 6:4 Scripture Challenge: John 6

Christians must strive at having effective prayer lives. Prayer is not just a fellowship, it's also a labor. That's why It might be amusing to think we should pray only when we feel like it.

Actually, because prayer doesn't appeal to our minds and senses, our bodies and minds may not enjoy praying and can even rebel against it. “For the flesh lusteth against

the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to

the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.” Gal. 5:17

Many times, we put off praying till the end of the day but by the time we're

through with the activities of the day, we're tired and drowsy and our

thoughts start struggling to concentrate. Funny, as this sounds, it's real.

This is where the labor comes into prayer. This is where the fight is, but it's not a

Fight with devils or men, neither is it a fight with God. It's a fight to keep

yourself on track against the dictates of the flesh.

It takes training and so you must be resolved to stick with your personal

prayer schedule.

Some Christians find it almost impossible to do this simply

because they've not been able to discipline their flesh. They go to work every

day of the week without ever considering getting to work late, much less not going at all. Brother and sister, if you can

train your mind and body to do this then you can train yourself to pray regularly and on time too.

 The challenge is that too many aren't willing to make such a sacrifce for their prayer lives, and that's because they don't know the importance of prayer. But when trouble comes, they're the first to say, “Please, pray for me!” don't depend on

emergency prayers, consistency is key. So many things will try to compete with your prayer time, but there's so much you can achieve on your knees. God's promises over your life can only be enforced in the place of prayer.

APPLICATION

1. Make a fresh commitment to your personal prayer life today. Train yourself to work with a specific prayer schedule during the day. Mark 1:35

2. Be disciplined in following through amidst all odds. Rom 8:12-13

3. Be consistent. Phil 4:8

4. Stay connected to God by maintaining and building a consistent prayer life. James 5:16

CONFESSION

1. As Jesus is, so am I in this world, therefore I do not struggle to stay connected to my

Father.

2. I hear to do His word and I have a rich fellowship with him in prayers daily. Glory to God!

PRAYER POINTS

1. Faithful Father, thank you for loving

me so much and for your guidance

daily through your word. Jer 31:3

2. I subdue the flesh and receive

strength to stand and be consistent in

fellowship with you. Eph 3:14-16

3. I ask that you help me to grow in my

prayer walk in Jesus name. Zech 12:10

(Day 5 Resurge )HOW’S YOUR SERVICE

Day 5: HOW’S YOUR SERVICE
ACTS. 20:35 Scripture Challenge: John 5

Some people have been Christians for years, yet they still think Christianity is all about everyone else catering to them.

The real question is this though: When are they going to grow up and start serving others? Jesus said that it is more blessed to give than to receive. In fact, a sign of real spiritual growth is that you want to serve—not be served.

You see friend, as you serve, God blesses and replenishes you. As you give, He gives to you. Luke 6:38 says, "Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over. . . . For with the
same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you." If we go through life thinking, I need this or I want that, we will never quite have enough. That is why we need to learn the joy of giving and the joy of serving.

The church isn't a place where we simply have our needs met; it's aplace where we help to meet the needs of others. The church is also a place where we discover our spiritual gift. Ephesians 4:7-8. Therefore we need to start saying, "How can I help? What can I do? I want to be serving the Lord in some way, shape, or form." This is a mark of true spiritual maturity.

PRAYER POINT

1. Thank You Father for the privilege and the honor to be called to serve You. 1 Peter 2:9

2. Father, in the name of Jesus, I receive grace as an instrument unto honour in your kingdom, help me to carry the banner of the gospel high. 2 Timothy 2:20

3. Father, in the name of Jesus, fill me with the knowledge of Your will in all understanding causing me to be fruitful in my service for the kingdom. Colossians 1:9-10

Confessions

1. Lord I declare that I am full convinced of my service to the Lord and humanity,
therefore I am walk and am not weary, I run and I do not faint

2. I declare that I daily walk in the grace to live a sacrificial life that brings honor to
the gospel amongst the heathen

3. I declare that my heart is full of love for lost souls and am compel to reach my
community for Christ.

(Day 4 RESURGE) TALKING TO GOD MADE EASY

Day 4: TALKING TO GOD MADE EASY

HEB. 4:16 Scripture Challenge: John 4

Do you actually believe that prayer is an easy way to talk to God and talk with Him?

Have you ever found yourself muttering one little prayer or another during the

course of the day? For instance, you set out on a journey and as the vehicle hits

the road, you're praying, “Father, thank you for the angels that You've released

ahead of me to make this journey successful to and fro.” Or your kids are on

their way to school and you're praying, “Lord, I depend on you to deliver my

kids from wicked and unreasonable men.”

You may be attending an interview

and although you prayed at home earlier, just before it gets to your turn, you

may want to say a silent prayer like, “Dear Lord, I ask that you grant me divine

favor in the midst of the interviewers, as I get into that room, I'll be the

preferred candidate.”

You're standing on the road and the clouds are darkening above you: “Clouds, hold your peace! Angels bring a bus along

now, in the Name of Jesus!” you declare.

Our opening scripture says to, “approach God's throne of grace with 

conĕdence, meaning there's always grace for you in the place of prayers to

help you through every hour of need. It's that easy.

It doesn't require mathematical skills or scientiĕc formulas.

We have the right to pray for every little thing as we have a relationship with

Christ and He hears us whenever we call on Him. “because we don't have a

high priest who can't sympathize with our weaknesses but instead one who was

tempted in every way that we are, except without sin.” (Hebrews 4:15). He

knows and understands exactly how we feel for He was once human. Your

every little prayer is heard by God because you have an High Priest who

understands, so talk to God now, for you have easy access to Him.

APPLICATION

• Feel free to talk to God in prayer for every request no matter how little as he is with you every time and

every day, ask him according to His will. James 5 :13-14; 1 John 5:14

• Develop a consistent relationship with the Holy Spirit. John 14:16-17

• Help us to continually take

advantage of your grace in Jesus name,

amen. Heb 4:6

Confession

1. I declare that word of God is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path and am

sensitive to Him daily

2. I declare that my steps in life are directed and ordered by your Spirit and I'm rightly

Prayer points

1. Precious Lord, I thank you for the

privilege of having a deep relationship

with you through your Spirit. 2 Cor

1:21-22

2. Thnk you for being always

available to hear us and respond to our

needs when we call. Is 59:1

3. Help us to continually take

Day 3: RELIABILITY OF THE WORD
2 TIM. 3:16-17 Scripture Challenge: John 3

Our convictions in the word of God is what strengthen our Christianity. It is faith in the word that makes the difference in the
life of the believer.

Also, it is only when our conviction is strong that we can bring people to God. Hence, it is very important that we are confident in the reliability of His word.

Atheists and scientists may present their claims based on facts,vhistory, and assumptions but they never come close to the absolute truth. This is because man can never know the absolute truth; not

Prayer Points
1. Lord Jesus, I pray that You reveal
Yourself unto me. Phil 3:10

2. I take hold of your promises to me

Confessions
1. I confess that I am a doer of the word of God and not hearer only

2. I declare that I am what the word says I am, I can do what it says I can do, I have what it
says I have.

3. I declare that I am begotten by the incorruptible word of God into a living hope of a fulfilled life.

(DAY 2 RESURGE) ARE YOU ON FIRE FOR GOD

There is an emptiness that lies within many people. They go to church but no longer feel the zeal that fuels their relationship with God. Some others no longer go to church and are struggling with the fact that God loves them, these emotions can cause us to question God's nature.

We may even begin to scrutinize ourselves to the point of self-condemnation. Why don't we seem to ĕt anymore? Have you ever asked these kinds of questions?
Referring again to our text above, Romans 12:11 says we should “not be
lacking in zeal, but keep our spiritual fervour in serving the Lord.”
Keeping our spiritual fervour / zeal is about having conĕdence in the Word of God; in the good news of Christ.

It is about the ĕre, passion and excitement that comes from understanding that the Word works; it is for you and it is for
the world around you.

 It is also about convictions. We cannot convince others of what we are not convinced about or that we have not believed! Spiritual zeal comes from the renewal of the mind.

 It is through the Holy Spirit that we receive fervour & passion to serve the Lord. Our fervour does not come from our circumstances or how we feel about them, but it comes consistency in participating in spiritual habits.

It is the Holy Spirit working through us that causes us to overĘow and to boil with a passion
to serve the Lord.

3. I will not grow weary in service of You and I will reap a bountiful harvest in this
life and most especially in the life to come. Amen.

THE POWER OF PRAYER ( DAY 1)

Gen. 32:36
Prayer is powerful, and we must never underestimate the power that Plies therein. When we pray according to the will of God, our prayer is unstoppable. But how do we know what God's will is? By carefully studying the Word of God.
Jesus promised: "If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will
ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you" (John 15:7).

Many people ĕnd the second part of this scripture very convenient and immediately gravitate toward this part of that verse: “Ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.” We love that! But God is not a magician. We tend to forget about the rest part of the verse: “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you . . .” 

If we walk in fellowship with God and study the Word of God, then we will know how to pray according to the will of God. And then we will start seeing our prayers answered.

I John 5:14–15 says, "Now this is the conĕdence that we have in Him, that if
we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him."
erefore, we should never cease praying, never give up and never back down! at is why Jesus said, "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will ĕnd; knock, and it will be opened to you" (Matthew 7:7).

 ere is an ascending intensity to these terms. It is like starting off with some politeness, then you get more aggressive, and then you get even deeper in the place of prayer, like Jacob, who wrestled with the Lord and refused to let go until He blessed him. Don't give up.

Day 1: THE POWER OF PRAYER
Gen. 32:36

In Jesus' Name, I receive the help of the Holy Spirit help to be a man /
woman of prayer.

I declare that I experience the grace and power of God through prayer.
I inĘuence my world and gain victory over the kingdom of darkness through prayer. ank You father in Jesus' Name. Amen.

1. Lord, teach me to have faith
in Your Word, that according
to Your Word I may receive the
end of my prayers in Jesus'
Name. Mark 11:24..

2. Lord, help me to understand
the true power in my prayer,
and to never neglect the place
of prayer in my spiritual
growth and walk in you. James
5:16 .

3. Lord, teach me to depend on
Your Spirit in the place of
prayer. Help me soar to heights
and reach new depths in
fellowship with You in prayer
that I could never otherwise
reach, in Jesus' Name. Romans
8:26.

The ocean and the sea

                THE OCEAN AND THE SEA

The blue is a drive that Invoke rest and has calming spirit.

Some times in my life I kept on asking myself a question whenever I visit the ocean.

How did God create the ocean? What is the length and width, dept and the height of the ocean?  All this question seems to be ascertained everywhere I go.


How the wave roolled or waved, how the kids, adults play and how the fishermen sail into the ocean and how people relax and take a good  time rest. All this makes me happy.

The sky is different from the normal sky with a sky blue and the blue defines the purpose of the beach.

The sky blue simply represents confidence, faith, truth, loyalty, intelligence, wisdom, trust and heaven.

It produces calming effect and slow down human metabolism.
