Welcome to this week where excellence will distinguish you in what you are doing. I see you being separated from the crowd for honour this week. Your labour is going to pay off this week. Your sacrifices is going to be rewarded this season. Continue in what you are doing for Yahweh and humanity because there is a due season that you will reap if you faint now (see Galatians 6:9). And I speak to you, this week shall be your due season. From every quarter, your excellence shall pay off this week in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? I Corinthians 13:5 (KJV)
There is need to evaluate and re-evaluate to make sure that you are on course with your purpose. In life, you must learn to be following yourself up on your purpose and plans. This is crucial because things will come to discourage you, to distract you, to engage you in other seemingly important things which are not connected to your purpose and plans. The purpose of evaluation is to ensure alignment. As you sit down to evaluate your plans, you would come to the point to make adjustments, or to re-plan completely. Facts that necessitated some actions may have changed drastically that would need new strategies to ensure you are on course. Except you sit down to evaluate you may not discover these facts. As you go in the course of pursuing your purpose, you may come to situations of total distraction. Distractions are real. Most times, you would have deviated for a long time but for quick evaluation of your purpose and identifying the seemingly good thing that is now taking your time that was never part of your assignment in the first place. You must make weekly examination and evaluation your lifestyle, if you desire to maintain a constant focus on your assignment.
When you see indices that have changed drastically by the leading of the Holy Spirit, you could re-plan. This is coming to the drawing table with new facts and redrawing the plan to reflect the new reality but ensure that you are doing all that being spiritually minded. That is allow the Holy Spirit to be the leader in all things about your purpose. This is because, your purpose is divine agenda and no divine agenda can be accomplished in the energy of the flesh. You require the leading and active participation of the Holy Spirit to fulfill divine agenda of which your purpose is. You must be that person that the Holy Spirit can interrupt with correction on your operations at any time He sees fit. You must not be so static like a statue. Don’t refuse correction of the Holy Spirit, if you desire to fulfill your purpose. You are not infallible. Sometimes, you can genuinely be wrong. You must learn to turn at His rebuke because He rebukes those He loves (see Hebrews 12:5-6).
You must also learn to follow yourself up. Why is that important? Especially when you are succeeding, you can just relax whereas though man is clapping for you, heaven is weeping that you have started to waste time and to relax while there are still so much ground to conquer. You must learn to follow yourself up to ensure that you are not relaxing while you should be gaining more speed and accelerating more vigorously. Your purpose is a serious matter because you will stand before the Lord to give account one of these days. Wake up!
REMEMBER: You need weekly evaluation of your purpose and plans.
CONFESSION: I am set on the course that I must follow. It’s my destiny and I am committed. I am wholly given to the rebukes and corrections of the Holy Spirit at all times. Glory be to Elohim!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: Be rescued today from every satanic distraction in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. Habakkuk 2:2 (KJV)
“That he may run that reads it.” The aim of the Lord for showing us our vision is so that we can run with it. Accomplishment is the plan of the Lord Yahushua for showing us the purpose and vision of our lives. You are not shown your vision for analysis and discussion. “That he may run that reads it” There is a running or pursuit agenda that the Lord has for you. The process is discovering purpose and in the process seeing where the Lord has earmarked for you to function in the kingdom. After you have discovered this, you are expected to sit down and count the cost by planning. This planning will task your mind to reason analytically, spiritually, intellectually and realistically. After you are done, there must be “no brain excuse”. There are people that believer that they don’t have the required mental capacity to pursue their purpose, especially when they compare with others. Philippians 4:13 says, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” I Corinthians 2:16 says, ‘For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.’ The mind or intelligence of HaMashiach is superior to the mind of any other mortal and that is the mind/intelligence you have when you were born again. You have no excuse at all.
There are others that give the “age excuse”. “Oh, I am too old or young to do this.” “If I came across this ten years ago, I would have gone far, it is just too late for me now”. That is the lie of the Devil. You are just on time if you start today. Romans 8:28 says, “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” If you are still young, then you have enough time to create a worldwide impact. If you are old, then you don’t have eternity to fulfill destiny, your task is urgent and you must go fast. You cannot afford to arrive the shores of eternity to meet your maker with excuse. No excuse will be tenable because all through the ages they are people with worse situation than yours that have gone ahead to fulfill their purpose and make their Creator happy.
Remember that your works shall be weighed in the balance. Your works shall be tried by fire (see I Corinthians 3:13). The issue of pursuing purpose is not only for earthly relevance and success but of eternal consequences. What are you going to say to the Lord when you appear before Him (see II Corinthians 5:10)? Our collective purpose here on earth, is to fulfill the great commission in Mark 16:15-20; Matthew 28:18-20. Are you laying out plans to be successful in pursuing after the lost and extending the lifeline of the gospel to them. You don’t need to go fasting to locate purpose, preaching the gospel is our most important urgent purpose on earth today. That is the reason you were not raptured the day you were saved. You were left here to win souls. Don’t fail. Selah!
REMEMBER: Salvation of souls is our sole purpose on earth today. Pursue that.
CONFESSION: I am here on assignment to turn many unto righteousness. I am here as a soul-winner. It is urgent because the time is running out. I shall not fail. Halleluyah!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: Whatever that is hindering you to executing your purpose of soul-winning is cursed today in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? Luke 14:28 (KJV)
Planning is a non-negotiable function for anyone that desire to walk in wisdom and make a mark for the Kingdom. The bane of so many believers both in their personal lives and in industry is lethargy in this area of planning. Planning starts with discovering purpose and receiving vision. Vision shows you your long-term goal. You would need to develop short-term goals in pursuit of the vision. After you have developed goals, then at the planning table, you lay out your courses of action and make a choice for pursuit. How do I organize a plan? Brian Tracy, the master of personal development developed an acronym that can helps us develop a solid plan. He called it SMART. When developing a personal development plan for work, you should focus on SMART goals. SMART stands for “Specific”, “Measurable”, “Achievable”, “Relevant”, and “Time-Bound”. Following this easy to remember acronym, you can improve both your personal and professional life. Firstly, your plan must be Specific. You must have an end in view to which you are working at getting to. Your goal is your vision. You are specific about your target because vision shows the end and you can work your plans from where you are now to that end which the Lord has shown you. Secondly, your plans must be Measurable. You must be able to quantify your goals so that you can measure outcome. This is very important. For instance, you want to improve the harmony in your family. You must identity in clear terms the points of disharmony. In planning how to achieve harmony, those points of disharmony must be identified and how to work at them clearly spelt out, so you can come back to measure how far you have gone in working on those areas.
Thirdly, your plans must be Achievable. You are going to take things one step at a time. Make plans that you can achieve with the grace of Yahweh upon your life. On the other hand, don’t allow your plans to be too easy that you don’t need the hand of Yahweh to accomplish it. Your plans must be achievable means that yours plans must hang on the balance where it will always drive you to Yahweh for grace because you wouldn’t be able to accomplish it on your own. Fourthly, your plans must be Relevant. Your plans must be relevant to your purpose and vision. Of course, we are looking at planning because it is the high way to achieving the vision of Yahweh in our lives, so they must be relevant to that vision.
Lastly, your plans must be Time-Bound. This is one ingredient of a good plan. It must be time-bound. That means, there is a starting time to take actions and there is a finishing time and a time when actions taken must be scrutinized to make sure they conform to the plan. Then the process starts all over again. In order to make progress that you can see and track, you need to document a detailed plan of action. Selah!
REMEMBER: Your plans must be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound.
PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. I ask for the grace to sit down and count the cost of whatever you are showing me by developing a solid plan in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: There shall be no more futile efforts again in your life from this day in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

Any enterprise is built by wise planning, becomes strong through common sense, and profits wonderfully by keeping abreast of the facts. Proverbs 24:3-4 (TLB)
Planning is the fundamental management function, which involves deciding beforehand, what is to be done, when it is to be done, how it is to be done and who is going to do it. It is an intellectual process which lays down an organisation’s objectives and develops various courses of action, by which the organisation can achieve those objectives. It chalks out exactly, how to attain a specific goal. Planning is nothing but thinking before the action takes place. It helps us to take a peep into the future and decide in advance the way to deal with the situations, which we are going to encounter in future. It involves logical thinking and rational decision making. Spiritually speaking, planning is a wisdom function, that helps the individual, group, organisation or nation lay beforehand, what is to be done (objective), when it is to be done (timing), how it is to be done (strategy) and who is going to do it (assigning an individual). It leaves no room to assumptions. Our opening texts says that any enterprise, business, ministry, career is built by wise planning. Planning is tying activities or actions to be carried out to time, place and person. Planning is the fundamental way of being versatile in your pursuits in life. It is also a smart way to obtain results. Many believers who are still grounded today, though they have discovered their gifts, have identified with their discoveries and are unwaveringly committed in its pursuit, are so because they are poor planners. A wise man said, “failing to plan is planning to fail.” Planning, therefore, is God’s wisdom for increased productivity.
Planning requires that you sit down to count the cost of every proposed action. Planning requires that you separate yourself alone to reason with the Lord in His Word and come up with scriptural courses of action that must be implemented within specific time frames. Facts are the instruments of a good plan. A fact is a truth, reality or a real state of things. There are natural, technical and spiritual facts. A natural fact is a truth pertaining to nature. For instance, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west — that is a natural fact. A technical fact, on the other hand, is a truth pertaining to art or applied science. For example, electrical facts. But spiritual facts are superior to all, because whatever is from above is above all. We have seen natural and technical facts producing outstanding results. Then you can imagine what spiritual facts will produce! That is why men who are linked up with spiritual facts effortlessly excel in all areas of life.
Therefore, I advise that you create a place in your house you call “Thinking Corner”. Go there, sit down with paper and pen and begin to plan how to make the best of your days, your time, your money, etc. If you are able to think through, you will inevitably end up a success.
REMEMBER: You can build anything if you can engage wise planning.
CONFESSION: I am a wonder happening in this generation. I am a committed planner by the Holy Spirit. My time is very precious because I do not have eternity to fulfil destiny, I have only time and I put it to judicious use through wise planning. Glory be Yahweh!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: I see a revolution in your life by engaging wise planning by the help of the Holy Spirit from this day in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

Welcome to your season of financial overflow by the Spirit of the Lord. In Numbers 11:31 we saw the wind of the Lord bringing quails and causing them to fall by the camp of Israel. That same operation has not ceased in our days. The wind of the Holy Spirit still brings whatever is needed by His children. Therefore, by that operations, receive financial overflow today and this week. I command the light of Yahweh’s countenance upon your finances today. No more scratching financially in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. Proverbs 29:18 (KJV)
Let us see several Bible translations of Proverbs 29:18. NLT says, “When people do not accept divine guidance, they run wild. But whoever obeys the law is joyful.” Easy-to-read Version (ERV) says, “If a nation is not guided by God, the people will lose self-control, but the nation that obeys God’s law will be happy.” GNB says, “A nation without God’s guidance is a nation without order. Happy are those who keep God’s law!” The Passion Translation(TPT) says, “When there is no clear prophetic vision, people quickly wander astray. But when you follow the revelation of the Word, heaven’s bliss fills your soul.” CEV says, “Without guidance from God law and order disappear, but God blesses everyone who obeys his Law.” Let’s collate these translations cited. What it is all about is that without vision, you perish, run wild, lose self-control, exist orderless, wander astray, and experience the disappearance of law and order in your life. I think these different translations have given us in details the dangers of living without vision. This perish is both in time and ultimately in eternity. It is vision that makes you keep eternity in view in your day to day operations. That is why perishing is inevitable without vision because just like New Living Translation (NLT) tells us, you would run wild. You will begin to live like every other person, “let us eat and drink, tomorrow we die.” (see Isaiah 22:13). You can run wild into alcoholism, pornography, sexual pervasions of all manner, squandermania, and all manner of unprintable addictions. All these are the product of lack of vision, people running wild.
Without vision, people lose self-control. In career, business, family life and in spiritual life too, losing control is inevitable without vision. Imagine someone that opened a shop and by 10am, he/she is still sleeping at home. That is the manifestation of lack of vision. It is only a matter of time, before, he/she folds up and blame the witches in his/her father’s house and some fake prophets will help him/her to name it. But the bane of her life is not any witch, it is lack of vision. New King James Version (NKJV) says, “Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law.” The Word restraint is another word for discipline. Without vision, you will cast off restraint in all sphere of life. It is vision, that makes you to stand on your toes even when it is not convenient. Life of convenience is actually a life without vision. It is vision that brings discipline to your life.
The Word says, let everything be done decently and in order (see I Corinthians 14:40), but without vision, you will be without order (GNB). Your life will be without order. That means chaos will be the norm in your life. Without vision, you will wander astray. But why should you live without vision, when you can get one from the Lord? Selah!
REMEMBER: Without vision you perish, cast off restraint, run wild, lose self-control, exist orderless, wander astray, and experience the disappearance of law and order in your life.
CONFESSION: My life is ordered by vision. I am so focused so much that all the gates of hell are in trembling. I am poised to make my heavenly proud He sent me in this generation. Halleluyah!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: Your days of existing without vision terminates today in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. Habakkuk 2:1 (KJV)
Our opening text is describing a prayer situation and position. That presupposes that the quest to get your divine vision requires you to take a prayer posture. This prayer demands accounts why so many in the body of HaMashiach hasn’t known Yahweh’s purpose and plans for them till date. It is not gotten on platter of gold; it takes some prayer posture beloved. One major characteristics of a genuine vision is that it has its source in Yahweh. If you want to hear, “well-done, good and faithful servant” (see Matthew 25:21,23), you must ensure that you get your vision from the Lord. Any vision that does not have its source in Yahweh leads to destruction. It might flourish for a while but certain destruction is inevitable. Even if you are applauded here on earth by people, what becomes of you when you stand before the throne of Him to whom we have to do? (see Hebrews 4:13). A vision is sought for and acquired by man/woman. Everyone through separation seeks his own vision. No one can seek a vision for another person. Vision is an individual, personal affair. It is not a collective affair. A man/woman who desires a vision must necessarily separate himself from every distraction and make enquiries from Yahweh.
Now, as you pray and seek the Lord for your vision, have these scriptural foundations. Firstly, make vision your need because the Lord is committed to meeting you at the point of your need. Philippians 4:19 says, ‘But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.’ If it is a need, then you are guaranteed an answer. Prepare yourself to receive. Secondly, know that the Lord is more willing to reveal His purpose and plan to you than you are willing to ask. So come with assurance. Psalms 2:8 says, ‘Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.’ If There is a person to pray, there is Yahweh to answer. Yahweh is eager, don’t you waver. He is just waiting for that moment when you will step out to receive it from Him.
Thirdly, “I will stand upon my watch”. Be alert and watchful. Visions are received during watchful moments. Watching and praying are two different things. Prayer is calling upon the Lord, while watching is conditioning your spirit man to receive from Yahweh. It involves getting your spirit-man linked with heaven in order to receive heaven’s signals. It is being in the Spirit. This is because the Lord can visit you any time – while going about your daily affairs, or at the wheel of a car driving, or cooking, etc. So, it takes being connected in the Spirit not to miss the signal that is carrying your vision. You see, a fleshy person has no business in this matter. Selah!
REMEMBER: You position yourself on the prayer altar with watchfulness to receive vision.
PRAYER: Dear Father, thank you for your word to me today. Father I am ready to receive your vision for me, let it drop in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: I command your spirit to come alive today in order to receive divine vision. I decree that every issue of mourning ends forever in your life and family from now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
