    HOW TO CONQUER THE GOD OF GOLD (1): CONTENTMENT

    And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
    Luke 12:15 (KJV)

    The hold of the god of gold is very strong in this generation that it demands siting down to see how to be delivered from its grips. When you go after the god of gold, you become a fool. Beware of covetousness! I Timothy 6:3-8 says, “3 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness? 4 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, 5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.” Contentment is the answer to covetousness. Until you are contented, you will remain covetous. Godliness with contentment will lead to the realms of great gain in life. Covetousness is ungodly. It is a sin! It corrupts godliness. But contentment will discipline and subdue it. Covetousness is one of the major ministries of the god of gold. Beloved, if you can arrest the god of gold, your beauty will emerge from heaven! The moment money is what determines your mood, you’re already enslaved by it! Look, if money is your reason for seeking Yahweh, you’ll be disappointed, because the scriptures cannot be broken.

    I Timothy 6:9-10 says, “9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” Listen to me, what you have does not determine your value; who you are is what determines your worth! Your position with Yahweh is what determines your ultimate value among men. I’d like you to be determined in your heart. Subdue covetousness, renew your altar with Yahweh. Destroy the altar of financial corruption and stop living for money, so you don’t end up as a mourner! Why am I saying all these? We are in the days of plenty in Zion. The day of His jewels is at hand (see Malachi. 3:17). His silver and gold are being released to the Church. May it not be our trap!

    Job was a man that feared El-Shaddai and eschewed evil, yet he became the greatest in all the east! Job is in heaven now, you too will make it! Righteousness does not demote, it exalts! But sin is a reproach to anybody. Righteousness is a promoter. Go and tell the truth! Deal in truth in your businesses and offices! Don’t partake in bribery and corruption, it can corrupt your destiny! Don’t give it, don’t take it! There is a future for you in Yahweh! Don’t sware falsely to make money! Tell the truth and you will triumph. Walk straight and your path will be straight. It’s a new day for you! Selah!

    REMEMBER: Contentment is the cure for covetousness.

    CONFESSION: My heart is free from the grip of the god of gold. Money has no place in my heart apart from its use to advance the kingdom and help humanity. Thank You Father!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: Receive the grace for contentment now in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • MACHINERIES OF SIN (3): REBELLION

    WordForTodayDevotional_12072026

    MACHINERIES OF SIN (3): REBELLION

    For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, he hath also rejected thee from being king.
    I Samuel 15:23 (KJV)

    Rebellion is demonic. Let us quickly make a scriptural connection to show that rebellion is another form of witchcraft and by the judgement of Yahweh, the witch is not permitted to live. Exodus 22:18 says, “Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.” Our opening text tells us that rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft. That is saying that a rebellious person is a witch and by divine judgement, not permitted to live. That is how deadly rebellion is. It has terminated the lives of precious talented people. In the wilderness, it had the third mortality rate after immorality, and the menace of the god of gold. In Numbers 16:1-3, 28-33, rebellion claimed the life of a whole family. That was how Dathan, Korah, Abiram, and 250 others, and all their families perished! Rebellion destroyed an estimated one thousand people in one day! Friend, rebellion is of the devil, don’t give in to it. Rebellion is a deliberate reaction against order, targeted at leadership at all levels in the Church of the Lord Yahushua. Any church or establishment you find yourself in and you have doubts about the leadership, it is not a place where you can be blessed. So check out of the place, before you’re checked out. Rebellion is risky. Don’t expect to survive if you reject Yahweh’s order. To wish leadership evil is mental disorder, as heaven is a city of order. Leadership is required for human society to survive, whether in the secular world or in the Church.

    Rebellion is a costly poison; don’t take it. Peace never reigns in any home where divine order is not accepted. Leadership offers direction; it doesn’t receive direction from the led. That is why leadership must strive at all levels to hear from Yahweh before offering direction to the people. Then anyone who rebels against such direction will pay dearly for it. That was why Dathan, Korah and Abiram died such a strange death. Exodus 22:28 (NET) says, “You must not blaspheme God or curse the ruler of your people.” This is particularly when you know you will be destroying your own position by doing so.

    The Church is going to know such terrific promotions that hell will not be able to sit and fold its hands. Hell will, therefore, be seeking for who can be pulled down along with it. That was what happened to Absalom, who set out determinedly to unseat his father, David (see II Samuel 15:1-6). Rebellion is demonic. Do you know that Absalom rejoiced when Ahithophel (David’s former adviser) gave him counsel on how to kill his father? (see 2 Sam. 17:1-4). But the whole of 2 Samuel 15-19 tells of the collapse of a rebel. Absalom was the most loved of David’s sons. Though he was destined for the throne, he lost his destiny to rebellion. Privileged and talented people are the most susceptible to rebellion. Selah!

    REMEMBER: Rebellion is another form of witchcraft.

    CONFESSION: I have no place for Satan in my life. I refuse to tolerate rebellion in me or around me. I am submitted to the authorities the Lord has placed over me. Halleluyah!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I plead the mercy of Yahweh over you in any way you have function in rebellion over the authorities that He has placed over you in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • MACHINERIES OF SIN (2): FINANCIAL CORRUPTION

    MACHINERIES OF SIN (2): FINANCIAL CORRUPTION

    As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
    Jeremiah 17:11 (KJV)

    The god of gold is the chairman of the sin of financial corruption. This is the the crave for money no matter the means. This is the love of money in full manifestation. Financial corruption is getting money in ways that contradict the Word. Sin of financial corruption is a killer. It has the ability to terminate the life of the possessor. In the wilderness, the sin claimed the second largest number after the sin of immorality. This is the sin of making a god of gold. The sin of financial corruption is the outworking of the spirit of covetousness. It has the ability to dislodge your destiny to the grave. Covetousness bought Gehazi, Elisha’s servant leprosy when his destiny was to carry the double portion of Elisha’s anointing. 2 Kings 5:20-22 says, ‘20 ¶But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master hath spared Naaman this Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought: but, as the Lord liveth, I will run after him, and take somewhat of him. 21 So Gehazi followed after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he lighted down from the chariot to meet him, and said, Is all well? 22 And he said, All is well. My master hath sent me, saying, Behold, even now there be come to me from mount Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets: give them, I pray thee, a talent of silver, and two changes of garments.” See what happened to him on his return from his covetous trip. 2 Kings 5:25-27 says, “ 25 But he went in, and stood before his master. And Elisha said unto him, Whence comest thou, Gehazi? And he said, Thy servant went no whither. 26 And he said unto him, Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants? 27 The leprosy therefore of Naaman shall cleave unto thee, and unto thy seed for ever. And he went out from his presence a leper as white as snow.”

    Why must you carry Naaman’s leprosy, when your destiny is to have twice Elisha’s unction? Why must you allow covetousness to purchase leprosy for you? To free himself from this trap, hear what Job said in Job 31:24-28, “24 If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine gold, Thou art my confidence; 25 If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much; 26 If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking in brightness; 27 And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my hand: 28 This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judge: for I should have denied the God that is above.”

    The love of money is the root of all evil and covetousness gives it expression. Escape for your life!

    REMEMBER: Money gotten not by right is on a mission to eliminate you.

    PRAYER: Dear Father, thank you for your word to me today. I destroy the hold of the god of gold in my heart now. From now no more financial corruption in my dealings in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: According to your choice to be delivered, today marks your deliverance day from the god of gold in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • MACHINERIES OF SIN (1): IMMORALITY

    WordForTodayDevotional_10072026

    #WordForTodaDevotional

    Friday, July 10, 2026

    MACHINERIES OF SIN (1): IMMORALITY

    Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
    I Corinthians 10:8 (KJV)

    Sin is not just sin; it is in grades and categories. When Israel left Egypt and journeyed to the Promised Land, the highest number of people slain was through sexual immorality. Paul in his writing in our opening text told us that 23,000 men fell in one day because of fornication. From Bible records, this was the highest number of casualty throughout their journey from Egypt to Canaan. Immorality will take its toll among people this end-time also. It is, therefore, important to choose this day where you will be.

    Samson, the strength of Israel in his time, fell by immorality. He was the treasure of heaven on earth, but he was turned into a toy. He was the gift of Yahweh, but became a curse on the earth, all because of immorality! Samson lost his enviable throne to a woman. They plucked out his two eyes and made him dance the dance of Israel among sinners (Judges 16), all via the trap of immorality! If you are a captive of this sin, my prayer for you is that this day marks the end of sexual sin and immorality in your life, in the Lord Yahushua’s name! You are loosed from this captivity, to walk in holiness!

    Sexual immorality is a very powerful weapon of the enemy. With it he has destroyed several glorious destinies. Yours will not be one of them, in the Lord Yahushua’s name. Proverbs 7:26 says, “For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.” Do you want to be cast down? Do you want to be slain? Proverbs 6:27-29 says, “Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? So he that goeth in to his neighbour’s wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent.” Let go the sin of immorality, otherwise it will cast you down! Multitudes are waiting for you to manifest, would you give up your crown to sin? The sin of immorality will cause you to mourn at last, when your flesh and body are consumed with AIDS, cancer, gonorrhoea, etc. (see Proverbs 5:11). So many men are dying as slaves today because this sin of immorality has not been put under check. It is better to be impotent than to miss heaven because of sexual immorality. It is better to be sexually dead, than to be alive in the flesh but dead in the spirit. It is better to live naked and pave your way to heaven, than to live in a falsified mansion, only to end up in the pit of hell! Why must you destroy your destiny on the laps of Delilah, when the whole earth is waiting for your manifestation? Whatever you saw before was child’s play; the one coming now has vowed to kill you, so run! Selah!

    REMEMBER: Immorality is a fire that will consume you, don’t play with it.

    PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. I ask for the grace to mortify my members upon the earth in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I cast out that spirit of whoredom from you now. Be released now in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • THE HORRORS OF SIN (3): ABSENCE OF PEACE

    WordForTodayDevotional_09072026

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Thursday, July 9, 2026

    THE HORRORS OF SIN (3): ABSENCE OF PEACE

    There is no peace, saith the Lord, unto the wicked.
    Isaiah 48:22 (KJV)

    One of the first thing that happened to Adam at the fall was the lose of peace. Peace is that state of tranquillity spirit, soul and body. Peace is the absence of war both within and without. Peace is a state of perfect fellowship with Yahweh where man’s obedience is confirmed. At the fall, the first thing that happened to Adam was that he discovered he was afraid. There was a looming sense of conflict, war and contempt spiritually that made him hide from the presence of the Lord. The presence that he used to enjoy before was now making him afraid. Surely and truly, there is no peace unto the wicked. The wicked is the person that lives in rebellion against the Word of Yahweh. The wicked is that one that scorns obedience to the Word of Yahweh. Sin destroys the presence of Yahweh which guarantees peace and leaves us with war both within and without. You cannot truly be at peace with sin alive in you. One of the greatest treasures in this life is peace. Once, there is no peace, then every other thing will breakdown; health, marriage, career, business, etc. Literally, if there is war, everything shuts down. That is how destiny shuts down by sin. When there is no peace, life begins to shut down. So, peace is an inevitable asset in the race of life.

    When Israel departed from God and began to do whatever she wanted, the Bible says that peace departed from her. “Now for a long season Israel hath been without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law… And in those times there was no peace to him that went out, nor to him that came in, but great vexations were upon all the inhabitants of the countries. And nation was destroyed by nation, and city of city: for God did vex them with all adversity.” (2 Chronicles 15:3,5,6). And then the prophet came and began to announce a new order, just as I’m doing now. Job 22:21-23 says: “Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee. Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart. If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles.”

    I pray that you will do exactly what Asa did. When he heard the words of the Prophet Oded, he took steps: “…He took courage, and put away the abominable idols out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin…and renewed the altar of the Lord… And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin. And they entered into a covenant to seek the Lord God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul.“ (2 Chronicles 15:8-9,12). And consequently, verses 15 and 19 tell us: “…The Lord gave them rest round about. And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.” Before sin finishes you, finish it and enter into your liberty! Selah!

    REMEMBER: Sin introduces war both within and without with massive destructions.

    CONFESSION: I hate the hidden things of dishonesty. I do not play with sin. I have cut off every link with sin and uncleanness, hence, peace like river is flowing in my heart and life. Halleluyah!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I speak peace and rest into your life now. I command every war to cease. No more living in sin in your life in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • THE HORRORS OF SIN (2): SICKNESS, DISEASE AND AFFLICTION

    WordForTodayDevotional_08072026

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Wednesday, July 8, 2026

    THE HORRORS OF SIN (2): SICKNESS, DISEASE AND AFFLICTION

    And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
    Isaiah 33:24 [KJV]

    The root of sickness is iniquity. There was no sickness before sin came on the scene but as soon as sin reigned, sickness, disease and affliction became the lot of the depraved humanity. Every disease has its root in sin. Yahweh made provisions for everything in the Garden of Eden, but not for healing, because man was not created to be sick. But by one man sin came, and sin brought death, and everything that leads to death, including leukaemia, cancer, AIDS, name it (see Romans 5:12). The Lord Yahushua said, “Thy sins are forgiven thee” is the same thing as saying, “Arise and be healed” (see Matthew 9:6), because both sin and sickness have the same root. Every disease is a curse, and a curse is as a result of sin (Deuteronomy 28:15-68). The Bible calls all forms of sicknesses curses, whether fever, chest pain, bad eyesight, deafness, name it. No other theological or medical explanation can be stronger than what the Bible has to say. Sin is at the root of every disease; and until righteousness takes over, sickness will continue. So let go of sin, so you can enjoy eternal life in your health!

    Considering Mark 2:1-10, The episode involving the Lord Yahushua and the paralytic makes a distinct connection between sin and sickness. This effect is often subtle because an illness or a poor, weak, rundown state of health may not be the result of a specific sin. It may be the product of a series of sins committed over many years or a lifetime. Sin is so subtle that a worldly person, examining himself for the cause of his sickness, may never consider sin at all. Not knowing Yahweh, he would have no inclination to look for sin as the cause. Our Saviour certainly connects sin with sickness: “Yahushua said, ‘Rise, take up your bed and walk.’ . . . Afterward Yahushua found him in the temple, and said to him, ‘See, you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you’” (John 5:8, 14). It could hardly be clearer: Sin produces sickness, pain, and degeneracy.

    James 5:15-16 says, “15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up? and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. 16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” This is to buttress the fact that sin is at the root of sickness. Until sin is taken out of the way, recovery may be impossible. And is it not much better to live in divine health? Glory be to our heavenly Father that we can confess sin and have them forgiven and cleansed. Do away with sin so that Satan can have nothing in you as excuse to bring sickness upon you.

    REMEMBER: At the root of sickness, disease and affliction is sin.

    PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. I repent of any sin in my life. Search me Lord and know me; try my thoughts and see if there be any wicked way in me and lead me in the way of everlasting life in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: The tenure of that affliction in your body is over today. Be healed now and receive grace not to go back to that sin again in the Lord Yahushua’s name Amen!

  • THE HORRORS OF SIN (2): DESTRUCTION

    WordForTodayDevotional_07072026

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Tuesday, July 7, 2026

    THE HORRORS OF SIN (2): DESTRUCTION

    Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
    III John 1:2 (KJV)

    It is a confirmed fact that iniquity always ends in calamity. This should not be difficult to grasp because the instigator of sin is Satan and the Lord Yahushua referring to Satan says in John 10:10 “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” If Satan is coming to steal, kill and destroy, it is important to ask what is the legal tender of Satan? Sin is the thing that gives Satan an inroad into your life to steal, kill and destroy. Sin’s ultimate is destruction. Beloved, you must internalize this fact that sin is not your friend, it is an arch enemy. Your destruction is sin’s mission. Are you going to allow sin to achieve its mission in your life? Sin removes you from the place of your safety which is the presence of Yahweh. In His presence, you are dwelling in a secure fortress. What sin does is to remove you from that hallowed presence because Yahweh’s eyes are purer than to behold iniquity (see Habakkuk 1:13). The Bible says sin separates us from Yahweh and hinders us from experiencing His help and blessings. ‘Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor His ear too dull to hear, but your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear.’ (Isaiah 59:1-2). Sin keeps us from knowing Yahweh and makes us blind, deaf and insensitive for the Holy Spirit. Therefore, most people will say there is no Yahweh, because they don’t experience Him. In their reality Yahweh does not exist. Sin has destroyed the presence of Yahweh from their lives.

    Most suffering on earth is caused by sin. For example: selfishness and lust for money causes big food industries to ignore the need of healthy food and instead they produce empty harvests of fruit and vegetables that are void of essential nutrients and filled with poison like pesticides and chemical fertilizers. The same industries put unhealthy processed sugars in every food product they sell. This is causing hundreds of millions of people to end up with diabetes, cancer and countless other diseases. This is just one example of how sin destroys mankind. Selfishness and lust for money blind us for truth and honesty.

    Most environmental issues which produce horrible natural disasters, are caused by the sinful hearts of hundreds of millions of people who don’t care about the environment and who destroy our planet with their behaviour. Both small people and big industries alike treat the world with an attitude of pure selfishness and unconcern. Many blame Yahweh for the disasters that strike our planet, but very few are willing to acknowledge their own responsibility. When Yahweh created man, He gave him authority over all of creation, and the responsibility to steward it (see Genesis 1:26). Ruling over the earth means taking good care of it, so it produces blessings and not curses, life and not death, cures and not diseases. But the sin in our hearts causes us to be indifferent and only care about our own pleasure. Therefore sin doesn’t only hurt us personally, it also destroys mankind on a global scale.

    REMEMBER: At the root of destructions and devastations is sin.

    CONFESSION: My life is hide in HaMashiach in Yahweh. I do not have the property of Satan which is sin in me and with me. I am a new creation with the nature of righteousness. Praise Yah!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: As you drop that sin today, I command restoration of whatever you have lost as its result in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • THE HORRORS OF SIN (1): SHAME

    THE HORRORS OF SIN (1): SHAME

    And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
    Genesis 3:10 (KJV)

    Shame is a function of nakedness. Sin makes you naked in the realm of the spirit. It is only a mad person that can be naked and not ashamed because there is no more mind to understand what is going on. Sin strips you of every form of covering, leaving you naked. Sin destroys the presence of Yahweh that forms a covering for the man, thereby, exposing him/her to attacks of the wicked. Sin is a barrier to honour in anybody’s life, whether white or black, literate or illiterate, young or old. No matter who you are, sin will never allow you to see honour. Wherever sin reigns, shame reigns. Wherever sin reigns, reproach reigns. Wherever sin reigns, men have no future. When the first man, Adam, sinned in the Garden of Eden, he was stripped naked. Yahweh called out to him, “Adam, where art thou?” Sin obscures you. Sin destroys your visibility confining you to the background of ignominy. Sin will strip any man naked of all honour, dignity and glory. Adam fell from grace to grass; he became a labourer where he was once the king. So sin must die for your glory to rise; sin must die for you to walk in holiness. No honour or glory awaits the crooked, because Proverbs 28:13 warns that “He that covereth his sins shall not prosper.”

    Sin takes the honour due you to other people. Proverbs 5:7-12 illustrates this: “7 Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth. 8 Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house: 9 Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel: 10 Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger; 11 And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed, 12 And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;” Sin is sin, no matter the coloration. You don’t talk of honour where sin reigns. No! Until you solve the sin problem, you can never experience lasting honour. When the first man, Adam, sinned, he became a struggler, a beggar. He began to hide, as sin had stripped him naked. It’s time to return.

    Isaiah 59:8 says, “The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths; whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace.” Crookedness is a barrier to honour, let it go! If you don’t destroy corruption, you will see corruption. When sin is enthroned, shame is inevitable. When sin has its way, honour loses its place. Sin is the father of shame, whereas integrity is the father of dignity. Make your choice. Everyone that gets married to sin ends up giving birth to children of shame. Selah!

    REMEMBER: When sin is allowed, shame reigns.

    CONFESSION: I refuse to allow sin to reign in my mortal body. I do not see shame because righteousness is my nature and holiness is my choice. Thank You Father!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: Whatever that is hindering the prosperity of your soul dies today in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • THE NATURE OF SIN (2): OFFERS TEMPORAL PLEASURE

    WordForTodayDevotional_04072026

    THE NATURE OF SIN (2): OFFERS TEMPORAL PLEASURE

    Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season?
    Hebrews 11:25 (KJV)

    Sin can be pleasurable. This is the hook that sin has used to trap many and to destroy their destinies. There is pleasure in using your pen in stealing from the government, then using the money to buy expensive ride and cruising around town. There is pleasure in taking a sexual partner to a five star hotel and having a full week of sexual experience. The pleasure of sin is the trap that sin uses to get its victims. This is also where the deception of sin comes in. It shows you pleasure and tells you that, that is all there is to it. But listen to our opening text again. The pleasures of sin are for a season. The Greek word translated ‘for a season’ is proskairos meaning ‘for the occasion only’. The pleasure of sin lasts for just the occasion only. But the consequences lasts into eternity. Why are you giving in for fleeting pleasures and exchanging it for eternity in hell? Why are you focused on the moment while ignoring the ultimate? The pleasures of sin are just for that occasion only which afterwards leaves you bitter and ultimately destroys one. It is your desire that draws you away to sin. James 1.14-15 says, “14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. 15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.” This is what sin does not tell you that once it is finished, you are now a walking corpse. When the occasion of the pleasure is over, you are no longer the same person. You are now a corpse with hands and legs still going around.

    The pleasures of sin would have made permanent the slavery of Joseph. He would have continued to receive favour both from Potiphar and his wife, being the second husband even though unknown to Potiphar. That sin of sleeping with Potiphar’s wife, would have gained him the favour of Madam Potiphar. But he would have forfeited his destiny of being a prime minister of Egypt. Whenever you are giving in to sin, you are forfeiting destiny. The pleasures of sin that is for a moment is always an exchange for the plans and purposes of the Father for you. Whenever you are being lured by the pleasures of sin which in any way is for a moment, you should remember that the cost of that pleasure is the great and mighty purpose and plans of the Father for you. Can you imagine the position of a head-boy in Potiphar’s house and the position of a prime minister of the whole Egypt. That is always the price of the pleasures of sin. Its opportunity cost is the greatness of the Father’s plans and purposes.

    Beloved, if it is sin, the end result is death. Even if you cannot see death; even if you can only see pleasures now, please understand that the end therefore is death (see James 1:14-15). Selah!

    REMEMBER: The pleasures of sin is for the occasion only afterwards it results in death.

    CONFESSION: My desire is to please the Father. My heart is to know the Father. What sin calls pleasure is repulsive and utterly disgusting to me because the nature of righteousness is at work in me. Halleluyah!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree today that the taste of sin dies in your life. That sinful appetite is destroyed now in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • THE NATURE OF SIN (1): SIN IS DECEPTIVE

    WordForTodayDevotional_03072026

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    THE NATURE OF SIN (1): SIN IS DECEPTIVE

    But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day? lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
    Hebrews 3:13 [KJV]

    The problem with sin is the nature thereof. Sin is deceptive. It causes one to believe what is not true or to fail to believe what is true. Sin is death in disguise. But sin will make you believe that it is enjoyment and pleasures without consequences. Sin cause one to believe that there is nothing that will happen. But we have seen that sin kills. Sin destroys whatever it comes into contact with. Sin is at the root of destructions of marriage, business, career, education, etc. A man that drinks believes that he is enjoying but that is deception of sin because he is destroying his liver and vital organs with alcohol. A young woman that is jumping from one bed to another, from one hotel to another thinks that she is happening, without knowing that she is a walking corpse, according to the Bible (see I Timothy 5:6). In plain terms a person who is deceived by definition does not even know they are deceived! And this is the deadly effect of sin in our lives – sin so alters our thinking that we do not even realize we are deceived when we sin!

    Spurgeon remarked, “Sin slyly insinuates itself and by slow degrees prevails, therefore must we carefully guard against it.” The first ever record of sin was the work of deception. Genesis 3:13 (NASB) says, ‘Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” And the woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”’ Indeed, he is the one who is “more crafty than any beast of the field which the LORD God made” (see Genesis 3:1) and who continues to sow his deceptive seeds of temptation from beginning to end (of our life and of this present evil age). 2 Corinthians 11:3 says, “But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your minds will be led astray from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ.” You are giving bribes and getting jobs but little do you know that you are already deceived by sin because it has failed to show you the other side of the coin which is premature death. Jeremiah 17:11 says, “As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.” The deceptiveness of sin will never allow you to have an inch of premonition of death as a result of ill-gotten wealth.

    You may be doing wrong now and it is completely hidden from the eyes of people and sin has convinced you that you are free. But it has refused to show you that no one ever need see you, that sin will find you out, it is only a matter of time and bring you shame, reproach and even death. Number 32:23 notes “But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the Lord: and be sure your sin will find you out.” If you are living in any sin, you are being deceive to think that it is not harmful to you but know for sure today, that sin kills and there is no small sin. Selah!

    REMEMBER: Sin is killing you, if you don’t know this, you are being deceived.

    CONFESSION: Sin does not have dominion over me because I am a new creation with the nature of righteousness. I function in holiness. I know that sin is dangerous and deadly, therefore, I do not play with it. Thank You Lord!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I command that scale to fall off your eyes today. That thing that makes you to toil with sin (death) is broken over your life now in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
