BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 23, Exodus 24, Mark 3:31-35, Mark 4:1-29, Psalm 22:22-31
FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1 Samuel 30:1-6, Mark 13:12-13
1 Now it happened, when David and his men came to Ziklag, on the third day, that the Amalekites had invaded the South and Ziklag, attacked Ziklag and burned it with fire,
2 and had taken captive the women and those who were there, from small to great; they did not kill anyone, but carried them away and went their way.
3 So David and his men came to the city, and there it was, burned with fire; and their wives, their sons, and their daughters had been taken captive.
4 Then David and the people who were with him lifted up their voices and wept, until they had no more power to weep.
5 And David’s two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the widow of Nabal the Carmelite, had been taken captive.
6 Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was [a]grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.
Mark 13:12-13
12 Now brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
13 And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who [a]endures to the end shall be saved.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
𝐉𝐄𝐒𝐔𝐒 𝐒𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐌 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐈𝐍𝐃𝐒 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐒 𝐈𝐍 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐋𝐈𝐅𝐄, 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐉𝐄𝐒𝐔𝐒 𝐂𝐇𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐓.
THE MESSAGE:
Beloved, as you continue in the journey of this year, it is worthy to mention that you will encounter different types of seasons and times according to Ecclesiastes 3:1-8, which makes us to understand that, to everything, there is a time and season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven. We, as humans, feel pains but we need to pray for the grace of God to be able to stand. Job 14:1-2 says, "A man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of troubles." The way you handle difficult moments will determine your success or movement to the next level, as you continue in this glorious year. If you handle it badly, it might cost you the good promises of God for your life but if you go through it with the word of God, you shall come out victorious. 2 Corinthians 4:17 says that our light affliction, which is for a moment, worketh for us eternal weight of glory. Hebrews 10:36 adds that we need patience after we have done the WILL of God for the promise to come to pass.
At the height of discouragement, you can begin to help the devil to do his work and might be taking wrong decisions. You might get to a point that you will begin to hinder God's work and promises for your life. In 1 Samuel 30:6, which is our Fire Scripture, we read that David was greatly distressed, but he encouraged himself in the Lord and he was able to pursue, overtake and recover all that were taken from him. I pray that as you continue your journey this year, you will be empowered to recover all you have lost in the past years due to discouragement, in the name of Jesus. Discouragement is a potent spiritual weapon used by satan against the children of God. It makes the work of God to be slow and sluggish; it even causes some believers to backslide.

However, there are tested and proven antidotes to discouragement. The first is reading the word of God and claiming the precious promises of our never failing God. The second is living a prayerful life. The Bible says that we should pray without ceasing. Prayer will drive away the spirit of discouragement and fill you with courage, hope and joy. Another important antidote to discouragement is giving high quality praise and worship to God regularly. Beloved, I advise you to give no place to discouragement in your life.
MORNING
1. Every problem tormenting my spiritual life, die, in the name of Jesus.
2. Anti-focus mountains, scatter, in the name of Jesus.
3. Woe unto every troubler of the Israel of my life, in the name of Jesus.
EVENING
4. O Lord, let all prevailing adverse circumstances in my life be converted to testimonies, in the name of Jesus.
5. I shall not give birth to trouble in life, in the name of Jesus.
6. Every problem associated with my name, die, by the power in the blood of Jesus.
7. You doors of my life, be closed to abominations of any sort, in the name of Jesus.
DO HAVE A BLESSED DAY
