LIGHT WORD

LightWord: “And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His plan and purpose.” Romans 8:28 AMP Faith is a great thing, it's a mystery. Faith is being in the same class with God. Faith is a must to have for every believer. Minus faith in anything and everything a Christian do and says is a sin. Now, to have faith doesn't mean you won't have to face obstacles. As a matter of fact, the Lord once said to me years ago, how are you going to be sure of your faith if you don't face obstacles? Say this to yourself: Father thank You for the faith I have in You and thank You for all the challenges I have and will overcome through my faith in You in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.” Joshua 1:8 Just like all the App we have on our smart phones and other gadgets needs to be update often time for better performances, the same way our lives need an updates. A life not updated will be out of date, obsolete, and a life that is out of date will not be relevant though still alive. Our Creator (God) never wants our life to be irrelevant. And the only way that can be is to keep updating our lives. How? By tuning in to His Word every moment to find directions in the journey of life ( Psalm 119:105 ). You have to cultivate the habit of doing nothing per day without studying the Word, for there lies your success and prosperity. Action point: Be disciplined, determined and dedicated to creating time out of no

LightWord: “And from the days of John the Baptist UNTIL NOW the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.” Matthew 11:12 To see the new you in this new year, it has to be worked out! Never forget, you have to renew and keep renewing your mind, take positive bold actions, pray - praying with your heart, and keep reaching out to lost souls for Jesus. See what the Bible says in Phillipians 4:8‭ AMP “Finally, believers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable and worthy of respect, whatever is right and confirmed by God’s word, whatever is pure and wholesome, whatever is lovely and brings peace, whatever is admirable and of good repute; if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think continually on these things [center your mind on them, and implant them in your heart].” Say this to yourself: Thank You Father for I will not live in this year doing nothing and having nothing. By Your grace whatever I lay my hands upon will prosper in

LightWord: “...‘For three years now I’ve been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?’ “ ‘Sir,’ the man replied, ‘leave it alone for one more year...’” Luke 13:7‭-‬9 NIV I pray for you today, just as you desire in this new year so shall it be by God's grace. I will like to remind you that it God's pleasure that we changes level at least yearly, but it's unfortunate that many of God's people couldn't key into that. They believe it will just happen without doing nothing. No! It doesn't just like that. Jesus himself said He have to work out the assignment given Him by God (John 9:4) and honestly, He worked really hard. And today, every tongues and nations in the whole universe can celebrate His glory. Say this to yourself: Thank You Jesus for this year shall make a huge difference in my entire life in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world [wealth, fame, success], but forfeits his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?” Matthew 16:26 AMP Souls of men are more valuable to God than any other thing. Just like the above Scripture says, there is nothing to give in exchange of one soul. Don’t forget, the value of your works determine the value of your income. Reaching out to the lost souls, letting your light shine wherever you find yourself, no matter what, then, God himself will make your life so valuable to your world beyond your wildest imagination. Take that step of reaching out and take it now. Say this to yourself: Father I thank You because heaven and earth may pass away but Your Word remains faithful. As I summon the boldness in reaching out for souls, transform my life drastically and make my life valuable in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: ““Come see a man who knew all about the things I did, who knows me inside and out. Do you think this could be the Messiah?” And they went out to see for themselves.” John 4:29‭-‬30 MSG Do you really want to experience a new life? If YES, then another important step you must to take in addition to new mindset, taking bold actions and prayer is also reaching out for souls. Souls? Yes, I can tell you there's nothing that can bring about a drastic transformation to your life than reaching out for souls. The secret is this, souls is more valuable to God than anything else. Say this to yourself: Father thank You because as I'm doing according to Your will, reaching out for lost souls, I'm on my way to the next levels of my life this year and beyond in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “Be unceasing in prayer [praying perseveringly]” 1 Thessalonians 5:17 AMPC Prayer is a form of communing with God, the Father. When Jesus was teaching us on how to pray, He said, when we pray we should ask - and I think people are good in doing that. Yet, He also said after you ask, get off on your knees and seek. Seek is active; seek is aggression, seek means you persistent. Seek is quite different from look, you seek into your new being consistently till you find. Say this to yourself: Father, as I seek the new me this year I declare I will find the new me in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “Be unceasing in prayer [praying perseveringly]” 1 Thessalonians 5:17 AMPC To see the new you in this new year, then you need prayer. Prayer changes circumstances, it changes situations, and much more it changes you as a person. When that happens, you know for sure that you are who God says you are. You just know it, because prayer has turn you around. Now you are seeing with the eyes of the Spirit. You now walk by faith and not by sight. That's why Scripture says never stop praying; be unceasing and persistent in prayer. Say this to yourself: Father release upon my life in fullness the Spirit of prayer and supplication to live a new life as You ordained it this year and for ever in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “ALSO [Jesus] told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not to turn coward (faint, lose heart, and give up).” Luke 18:1 AMPC As you study God's Word and pray continually with it, the Spirit of God in you keep absorbing the Word to your spirit being and suddenly changes everything from within, it changes your perspectives, encourages your actions. And things began to change on the outside too, beginning from your words and to your realities. Instead of praying, Oh God, let me succeed, something just come out from you to I am a success, I have taking over, I'm empowered, I'm a new man. Say this to yourself: Father by Your Word and Your Spirit I level up, I'm a new man, I'm experiencing new me, new things at every level in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “ALSO [Jesus] told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not to turn coward (faint, lose heart, and give up).” Luke 18:1 AMPC No other one to teach us how to pray than Jesus Christ our Lord, because not only did He prayed but we can see the effect of prayer in His life and destiny. Prayer changes things around Him and also changes Him as a person. Now, He said in our focal Scripture of today that men ought always to pray, but it seem many people are fainting when it comes to prayer or either they are not praying effectively. But for that to change for you, then you need God's Word and His Spirit. Say this to yourself: Lord Jesus, fill me up with Your Spirit for wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of You in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “...let’s not just talk about love; let’s practice real love. This is the only way we’ll know we’re living truly, living in God’s reality. It’s also the way to shut down debilitating self-criticism, even when there is something to it." 1 John 3:18-19 MSG Love is in the air, and Happy Valentine!! Here are 10practical quotes about love: 1) “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment.”  —Jesus Christ 2) “Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.” —Robert A. Heinlein 3) “ Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.” —Mother Teresa 4) “Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is a quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.” —Ann Landers 5) “Being deeply loved by

LightWord: “As He was praying, the appearance of His face became different [actually transformed]...” Luke 9:29 AMP A great man of God once said and I understand it so, that every failure in life is a failure in prayer. Yes, prayer is not everything, but prayer makes everything to function well. To pray is not an option at all, it's a must. If Jesus had to pray to become a new man entirely, if the disciples had to pray to turn to new men, then, you and I have to pray in support of every other thing we do to become a new man, a new woman. Say this to yourself: Spirit of the living God, help me to pray ceaselessly and according to the will of the Father in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “As He was praying, the appearance of His face became different [actually transformed], and His clothing became white and flashing with the brilliance of lightning.” Luke 9:29 AMP In experiencing a new life, it is paramount for one to pray, and pray so well. You might say prayer? Why prayer? Yes, you have to understand that prayer does not only changes things, it also changes you as a person. All of your efforts in seeing the new you in this new year, even with your new perspective, I mean new mindset and your bold steps and actions which are so important, yet without prayer, it becomes frustrated or at worse a failure. Say this to yourself: Father, thank You for Your plans for me this year is not to be a failure, therefore I ask for grace for prayer and supplication  in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” And throwing aside his garment, he rose and came to Jesus.” Mark 10:47‭, ‬50 NKJV This blind man in the above Scripture couldn't see but only heard about Jesus, and a time came in his life, a new year with a new mind that that will be his last year of blindness. He has the mind and then did what I'm asking you to do. He took some action! ( Mark10:46-52 ) Even being blind, he wasn't given an excuse of his condition - but you know Jesus, I am blind, why don't you come and meet me... no! He made a move. If you make powerful moves when you haven't see anything to imply that your situation will change, but just on the basis of His Word, then you are set by faith for a new life. Say this to yourself: Father, I thank You for Your covering is surer than all the insurance of this world combined together. I'm making a move in Your Word and I

LightWord: “And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” Mark 10:47‭ NKJV God want to turn everything around for you amazingly this year with a force that cannot be resist, but you must be ready to fly. Write this down today: things that seem pitiable in your life will soon become a call for envy in your life. Yet, to make this year what God has really planned it to be for you, then, taking action is not an option. The man in our focal Scripture of today was a blind man, yet he make a move that changed his destiny positively for life. Say this to yourself: Thank You Holy Spirit because that thing that seem pitiable in my life now, before the end of this year, it will become an enviable dramatic turnaround in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the Lord's  blessed him.” Genesis 26:12 Isaac couldn't invest in the land of Gerar because he was afraid and as a result of that, he couldn't experience any increase, not until he took that step of sowing in the land before he could received an hundredfold in the same land, the same year. He became so great and moved upward above others, and he became a subject of envy ( Genesis 27:1-14 ). I can boldly tell you today that your breakthrough is at the door, right before you; but until you take that positive step, you won't be able to launch into the realm of abundance blessings. Say this to yourself: Father I bless You because You confirm the word of Your servant and performs the counsel of Your messenger. I believe as I harken to the counsel by taking steps, I will have records of enviable success at the end of this year in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “He said, “Come!” Peter stepped down from the boat, and walked on the waters to come to Jesus.” Matthew 14:29 WEB Men of actions are men of distinction. Get ready to step out, because until you step out, you never stand out. No matter how slow your steps may be, take them any way. If you are called into politics, you need boldness to join that political party of your choice. You need courage to put more effort and all it takes in branding that your business that seem unrecognized in order to achieve greatness in it. Don't allow your renewed mind to be dormant, you need to take action and now! Say this to yourself: Father, thank You for the grace to take action even now and as I foresee that this year shall make a difference in my whole life in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “He said, “Come!” Peter stepped down from the boat, and walked on the waters to come to Jesus.” Matthew 14:29 WEB Always have this in mind, that God has His part to play in our lives, likewise we do; and until our own part is played, things remain undone, miracles becomes a mirage, greatness becomes unattainable. You need boldness to step out and do that thing, make that investment, go for that opportunity, write that proposal. You need the courage to continue at your place of work and do even better than you've been doing.  Say this to yourself: Father I thank You for the boldness and courage I receive today to take that step of faith believing that nothing is impossible with You on my side in Jesus' name. Amen!
