    OBSTACLES TO SATISFACTORY PRAISE (6): NEGATIVE PAST

    Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.

    Isaiah 43:18 (KJV)

    Negative past talks about events in your past that when you remember them, you are full of hurt, resentment, hate, vengeful, bitter and depressed. The habit of looking back at past failures is an enemy of praise. You can’t live a life of praise until you let go of the negative past. For instance, if you are driving a car forward, and rather than facing your front, you concentrate on looking backward, you know of course that you are heading for a ghastly motor accident. Lay all the troubles of the past to rest! If you have lost anything, He is the reason why you have not lost everything. You can’t praise Him with burdens. Looking at your negative past all the time will make things negative in your life. Let them go! The Bible says anyone who puts his hand on the plough and looks back, is not worthy of the kingdom (see Luke. 9:62). That means he is not fit for the blessings of the kingdom.

    It is impossible to live a life of praise when you are attached to your negative past. If you do not let the past be past, you may pass on with it! Yahweh says, instead: ‘Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.’ (Isaiah 43:19). It means, if you must know the things God is about to do, let go of the negative past and remove it from your mind and heart. We are definitely in the days of new things. So, would you let go of the past now? Apostle Paul has this to say about the past, ‘Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.’ (Philippians 3:13-14). He means to say, “I forget the past, I press towards the future.” Looking backward makes you a failure in the faith.

    You have gone around that mountain long enough, now go forward! Remember Lot’s wife? As they were leaving Sodom and Gomorrah, she looked backward, and turned to a pillar of salt (see Genesis.19:26), a statue of no value. Let all those troubles of the past rest. The only thing to be remembered in your past should be testimonies. If they are not testimonies, God commands, “Remember not…” I declare every bitterness planted by the irreparable past dead in your life today, in Yahushua’s name! Every depression caused by the irreparable past is broken right now! There is joy before you today and no man shall take it from you, in Yahushua’s name. Say with me,”I am free from the weight of the negative past!” Shalom!

    REMEMBER: If you don’t allow the past to pass, you will pass with the past.

    PRAYER: Beloved Father, thank You for Your word to me today. I received grace to nail my negative past at the cross. I am a new creation, therefore, the past has no more hold on me now in Yahushua’s Name Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: There is a new thing the Lord is doing in your life from today and it shall be evident for all to see shortly in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • OBSTACLES TO SATISFACTORY PRAISE (5): SORROW

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Tuesday November 16, 2021

    OBSTACLES TO SATISFACTORY PRAISE (5): SORROW

    A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
    Proverbs 15:13 (KJV)

    Whatever breaks your spirit-man breaks your praise. Sorrow is an enemy of praise, and whatsoever stops your praise is an enemy of your destiny. Praises in the mouth of an unhappy man are like songs in the mouth of a pig; it’s a nuisance in the ears of Yahweh. Sorrow does not only break the spirit, it also blocks your access to Yahweh. Many ailments people suffer today are as a result of sorrow of heart. When your heart is broken, your body will soon fall apart. Your physical body is in danger at the instance of prolonged sorrow of heart (depression). There are two basic causes of sorrow in the lives of people:

    1. Hopelessness: Hopelessness is a major source of sorrow. When you become hopeless on any issue, sorrow is the reward you get, it is the prize for hopelessness. Every time you come to the end of the road on any issue (according to your own assessment), sorrow takes over. But listen to this: it is foolishness to be hopeless as a believer in HaMashiach! See what the Word of Yahweh says concerning you: ‘For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.’ (Ecclessiastes 9:4) As long as the Vine is alive, there is hope for the “branches”. Yahushua said: ‘I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.’ (John 15:5). He is the Vine and you are the branches. If you are in Him, the devil cannot make you hopeless. You also have this assurance from Yahweh in the book of Jeremiah: ‘I alone know the plans I have for you, plans to bring you prosperity and not disaster, plans to bring about the future you hope for.’ [Jeremiah 29:11 (GNB)]

    2. Following other gods. The second source of sorrow in people’s lives is following after other gods. Any other god you have besides the Almighty Yahweh will definitely add sorrow to your life, for it is the blessing of the Lord alone that maketh rich, and He addeth no sorrow with it. Haven’t you heard? “Thou shalt have no other god before me.” That is Yahweh speaking in Exodus 20:3. One of such gods is the god of gold. ‘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. But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.’ (1 Timothy 6:10-11). When money becomes your god, sorrow becomes your heritage. This is because that thing called money is never enough. When money becomes your source of joy and excitement, you never have stable joy. It waxes strong today, and wanes tomorrow. Money compels spending, so every time it reduces, one’s joy drops. When it rises, a fake and ephemeral joy rises inside the man. And when he keeps having such high and low temperature constantly, Yahweh’s promise of long life is cut short.

    The presence of sorrow is the absence of joy and the presence of Satan and his demons. Anytime you allow sorrow you open the door for demonic oppression by your own self. Sorrow is a great enemy of Yahweh’s presence. Even kings in this earth, appearing before them with sorrow is considered treason with attendant death penalty (see Nehemiah 2:1-2). It was only divine favour that bailed Nehemiah out of death that day. Whenever sorrow is present death become inevitable. Make your choice today. Selah!

    REMEMBER: The presence of sorrow is the absence of divine presence.

    CONFESSION: I am full of joy because I am full of the Holy Spirit. I have no room for sorrow and hopelessness. My expectation is only on the Lord. He is my God and I will love and serve Him alone and experience the wonders of His presence everyday. Halleluyah!!!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I curse every cause of sorrow in your now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • OBSTACLES TO SATISFACTORY PRAISE (4): HIGH-MINDEDNESS

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Monday November 15, 2021

    OBSTACLES TO SATISFACTORY PRAISE (4): HIGH-MINDEDNESS

    Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
    Romans 11:20 (KJV)

    Highmindedness is one of the greatest enemies of praise. It is a condition where an individual sees everything as below his expectation. He sees himself as too much for where he is and hardly appreciates the acts of Yahweh in his life. As a matter of fact, Yahweh is too slow for him. This is nothing but a device of the enemy to turn one against Yahweh, by portraying Him as unfaithful and slow. The Bible says that in the last days, men shall be high-minded, lovers of pleasures and of self more than lovers of Yahweh (see 2 Timothy.3:2-5). They are never satisfied and they celebrate their qualifications and expertise at the expense of their relationship with Yahweh. At the end of the day, Yahweh leaves them to themselves. But 1 Timothy 6:17 says, ‘Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy.‘ Life is in phases! Until you accept the reality of that statement, you may be phased out. You must appreciate the fact that you are where you are now, by the faithfulness of Yahweh. So, whatever you possess is not as a result of your expertise, but the hand of Yahweh upon your life.

    There is nothing wrong with having a dream for your future, but the timings of its fulfilment must be left in the hands of Yahweh. ‘The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward…’ (2 Peter 3:9). That is why I believe I could not have been anywhere better than where I am now, because I am in the hands of a faithful Yahweh and no one could have handled my life better than Him. Yahushua said in Matthew 18:4, “Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” In Matthew 21:16 He also said, “… Have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?

    It says ‘be not high-minded but fear.’ You see high-mindedness is contrasted with the fear of Yahweh. You can only defeat high-mindedness with the fear of Yahweh. Walking in the fear of the Lord is what delivers you from high-mindedness. It takes being “child-like” minded to flow in perfect praise. Every little child believes absolutely in his mother. So, believe Yahweh, that where you are now is your best estate, and as you celebrate His faithfulness in your life, you will find yourself in the next phase He has prepared for you.

    REMEMBER: High-Mindedness will make you regard Yahweh as too slow for you, hindering for seeing what He has done, thereby preventing you from praising Him.

    PRAYER: Dear Father, thank You for the revelation of Your word. I ask that every trace of high-mindedness be mortified now in my life in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: The plague of high-mindedness is uprooted now in your life. You shall begin to celebrate the Lord genuinely from now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    OBSTACLES TO SATISFACTORY PRAISE (3): OFFENCE

    And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.
    Matthew 11:6 (KJV)

    Offence is the natural tendency in the hour of difficulty and pressure. It is a negative reaction to unpleasant conditions. Unfortunately, it’s a reaction against your helper, thereby rendering you completely helpless. The offended man says, “Why me? Where is Yahweh now? Is His Word still there? Can anyone really count on Him?” The answer to all offenses is patience. In the parable of the sower, Yahushua said: ‘But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.’ (Luke 8:15). No matter how good your heart is, patience is needed to enjoy the fullness of Yahweh’s plan for your life. You get offended easily, that’s why it looks as if things are not working for you. If the devil tells you, “If Yahweh were going to lift you, He should have done it by now.” Tell him, “Yahweh is never late. He created the entire would in six days, so whatever deadline is before me now is too much for Him to perfect all that concerns me.” Be determined, like Job, to wait till the time of your change comes from the Lord, for there is no shame to them that wait for God (see Isaiah. 49:23).

    John the baptist, a man of great destiny, died in prison because of offences. Yahushua told us that of all born of women, there was none as great as John the Baptist. Prophets of old spoke about his great coming, but offence killed him. John sent a message to Yahushua from the prison, asking: ‘… Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another?’ (Matthew 11:3). That was like doubting Yahushua’s mission on earth and pointing an accusing finger at Him. ‘Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and show John again those things which ye do hear and see: The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.’ (Matthew 11:4-6). That was a comprehensive diagnosis of John’s problem – “Blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.” That is, “Cursed is he who is offended in me!” John was offended and ended up being beheaded! You will not be beheaded! Yahushua said it is impossible for offence not to come, but woe unto him by whom it will come (see Matthew.11:6; 18:7). John was offended and his great destiny was shattered.

    But here was Paul and Silas. Just like John, they were equally locked up in prison. Besides, they were also beaten, humiliated and bound in stocks. But because they refused to be offended, they ended up being dignified! They prayed, sang praises aloud unto God, and the prisoners heard them. They must have been mocked, but Yahweh loosed them, and made them! We are still talking about their testimony today. Make up your mind never to be offended in Yahweh. Selah!

    REMEMBER: Offence must come, but refuse to be offended both in Yahweh and men.

    CONFESSION: I am a new creation in Yahushua HaMashiach. an heir of Yahweh and a joint-heir with HaMashiach. I was begotten of Yahweh and a child of His love. I am a lover of Yahweh and human beings. Offence has no place in me and I refuse to be offended. Halleluyah!!!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: Whatever that is making you to be offended in your helper is cursed from the root today in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • OBSTACLES TO SATISFACTORY PRAISE (2): COVETOUSNESS

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Saturday November 13, 2021

    OBSTACLES TO SATISFACTORY PRAISE (2): COVETOUSNESS

    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)

    Covetousness is an attitude marked by inordinate desire for wealth or possessions or for another’s possessions. It is showing extreme cupidity (extreme greed for material wealth); painfully desirous of another’s advantages. Another obstacle to a life of praise is covetousness. Nothing is ever enough for the covetous. People are running helter-skelter daily, because they are under the plague of covetousness. Oh yes, it is a plague which wipes smiles off its victim’s face. The worth of a man is not in what he possesses. But what is the cure for covetousness? 1 Timothy 6:6-8 says, ‘But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment, let us be therewith content.’ Contentment is the answer to covetousness. The Holy Spirit makes us understand that everybody has what it takes to be contented. He said, “And having food and raiment, let us be therewith content.” Note that it says, “having food”, not “foods”; “and raiment”, not “raiments.” Godliness with contentment is great gain. That means contentment is your open door to great gains in life. Why? With contentment, you maintain a praiseful lifestyle, which would bring you outstanding liftings. It is impossible to maintain joy where contentment is absent.

    Contentment helps appreciate the goodness of Yahweh in your life. It helps you value the hand of Yahweh upon you. When you wake up in the morning, it looks like gold to see another day and you just flies up in celebration to the Lord for the privilege and gift of life, another day and health. Contentment helps you maintain a humble attitude before the Lord. You see why the Word says that godliness with contentment is great gain. Contentment links you to so many other great attitudes in the kingdom which helps you gain altitude in life and destiny.

    Covetousness is a plague! Its end is always bitter for its victim. But there is no plague to them that wait for the Lord (see Lamentations 3:25-26). It is my opinion that all robbers and thieves are victims of covetousness; they are greedy and are never satisfied, like the horseleach (see Proverbs. 30:15-16). I’ve seen quite a lot of people injure themselves through covetousness. Many homes are broken today by it. For me, I believe that what I don’t have, I don’t need and it’s not safe for me to desire it. I believe that the reason you do not have a car now is because it is not safe for you to have one now. When it is safe for you, He won’t deprive you of it, for no good thing would He withhold from them that walk uprightly. Hear this again: covetousness is an enemy of praise; whereas contentment is the gateway for the attainment to greater heights. Selah!

    REMEMBER: Beware of covetousness!

    CONFESSION: I am grateful for all the Lord has given to me. He has done all things well in my life and I celebrate His hand at work in and around me. Glory be to His Holy Name! Halleluyah!!!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: You shall not be destroyed by covetousness in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • OBSTACLES TO SATISFACTORY PRAISE (1): THE SPIRIT OF HEAVINESS

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Friday November 12, 2021

    OBSTACLES TO SATISFACTORY PRAISE (1): THE SPIRIT OF HEAVINESS

    Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
    Psalms 69:20 (KJV)

    The spirit of heaviness is an enemy of praise. It is not a state of the mind, neither is it an attitude. It is a spirit – a force in the realm of the unseen. Its victim is not down because of any negative thing that has happened to him; he is depressed most times without even knowing why! He wonders what life is all about. I believe that was the spirit that came upon Elijah when he fled from Jezebel. He said, “… It is enough; now, O Lord, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.” (1 Kings 19:4.). Until the spirit of heaviness goes, praise, which is your guarantee to the high places in life, cannot flow. But Isaiah 61:1,3 says, ‘The spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to… appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness…

    Even though heaviness is a spirit, the Spirit of Yahweh is superior to it. Paul said, ‘For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.’ (Ephesians 6:12). It is one of the devil’s acts of spiritual wickedness to put the spirit of heaviness upon a man, so that even in the midst of high praises he does not have a release to praise Yahweh. The devil knows that until you praise, you remain a victim of life. But you fight that spirit of heaviness by casting it out in the name of Yahushua, because He said, “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils…” (Mark. 16:17).

    Joy is your birthright and you maintain it by letting the Word of Yahweh dwell richly in your heart, till there is no room for the devil. So, you can rise up and say to that spirit of heaviness, “This is the day the Lord has made, I must rejoice and be glad in it! Therefore, in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach, you spirit of heaviness, loose your grip from me and get off my abode”, and you will be free. Now that Yahweh has delivered you from every sorrow and weight, He will also keep you free forever! Go and stay happy! Go and stay merry! Sorrow shall no longer find a place in your heart forever more! I curse everything that brings sorrow on your path! Go on celebrating forever, in Yahushua’s precious name!

    REMEMBER: You need to be spiritually light to praise, never allow heaviness.

    CONFESSION: Joy unspeakable full of glory is at work in my life. I have no business with the spirit of heaviness. The joy of the Lord is always my strength and I know no down times. Halleluyah!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I curse the activities of the spirit of heaviness in and around you now. I decree fresh garment of praise upon you today in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • TO RENDER SATISFACTORY PRAISE (3): LIVE IN THE FEAR OF YAHWEH

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Thursday November 11, 2021

    TO RENDER SATISFACTORY PRAISE (3): LIVE IN THE FEAR OF YAHWEH

    Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: …
    Habakkuk 1:13a (KJV)

    For your praise to be acceptable and satisfactory, you must deal with every enmity between you and Yahweh. The same Yahweh that responds to prayer is the same One that responds to praise. If when you hide iniquity in your heart, He does not hear your prayers (see Psalms 66:18), will He now celebrate you in praise? Yahweh’s eyes cannot behold evil. This attribute of Yahweh is what provoked the Psalmist to ask: ‘Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart. He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.’ (Psalm 15:1-3) Righteousness is your gateway to enjoying any benefit from Yahweh. Since He won’t behold iniquity, your praises to Him in iniquity won’t be acceptable before Him. He couldn’t even behold His only begotten Son on the cross when He bore the sins of the whole world upon Himself, how then would He listen to you when you praise Him in sin?

    Every grace of Yahweh thrives on righteousness. Praise provides an access into the presence and blessings of Yahweh; but it is righteousness that secures it. Every blessing from Yahweh requires righteousness to be released. Similarly, every principle of Yahweh produces on the platform of righteousness, which is Yahweh’s foundation (see 2 Timothy.2:19).

    The price for righteousness has been fully paid. Every slavery to sin now is by the individual’s choice. The reason why Yahweh will punish any believer in HaMashiach that continues in sin is because it is his choice to sin. Jesus already fully paid the price for sin, hence the Bible tells us: ‘For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.’(Romans 6:14). If you were helpless against sin, it would be wicked for Yahweh to punish you for what you are not capable of controlling. But the victory over sin was accomplished two thousand years ago on Calvary! So, if you are in adultery today, it is because you choose to remain in it. You are not helpless against sin. It is your choice to steal, that is why you stole. I would like you to see the subject of sin as a choice. Only then can you exercise dominion over it. Every sin you commit after you have accepted HaMashiach is purely by choice. Satan is not to be blamed and neither is the circumstance you find yourself.

    So look at that thing that is trying to lure you away from your Father’s house and say to it, “I have the final say, Satan shut up!” New birth turns your helplessness into helpfulness. It makes you a man of choice. New creation makes you a creature of choice. You have escaped the kingdom of darkness and are now resident in the kingdom of His own dear Son (see Colossians. 1:13), the kingdom of choice, where everything that happens to you is by your choice (see Deuteronomy. 30:19). As long as you live in sin, your praise has no access to Yahweh. The melody therein is nothing but a croaking noise in the ears of Yahweh. But when you sign in for righteousness, your praise will deliver amazing results to you any day! Selah!

    REMEMBER: Sin and satisfactory praise are mutually exclusive.

    CONFESSION: I am the righteousness of Yahweh in Yahushua HaMashiach. I have also made my choice for righteous living, so no iniquity can fasten itself against my will. I rule over sin and unrighteousness. Halleluyah!!!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree that the hold of sin and uncleanness in your life is broken today. You shall begin to experience the wonders of praise from now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
