STOP SEEKING WHAT IS NOT MISSING
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
Colossians 1:13 (KJV)
Whenever you are seeking for what is not missing, frustration will become your second name. Almost all of us have experienced that time when you are looking for something, (it has happened to me with socks). You just cannot find this thing that you saw a while ago. Where did this thing disappear to? You turn over almost everything in the house looking for this one thing that is seemingly missing. But all the while you were looking frantically for it, it was in your hands or pocket but somehow it was just occluded from you. I asked everybody in the house, please did you see so so and so? Then someone just looks at you and calls your attention to your hands or pocket and asked, “is it not the socks that you are looking for that is in your hand or pocket?” To your amazement and utter dumbfoundedness, you truly saw it in your hand or pocket. It may have taken you an hour of frantic searching. But fortunately, what you were searching was not missing but has always been there with you just that you couldn’t see it. That is the same case with so many believers running from pillar to post looking for deliverance. Whether it is deliverance from generational curse, ancestral curse, Satan, or whatever, you have already been delivered. Our opening texts told us so and the Word cannot be broken.

RECEIVE YOUR HEALING (1) BY CASTING OUT THE EVIL SPIRIT RESPONSIBLE
And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?
Luke 13:16 (KJV)
From all we have learnt so far, it is obvious that sickness is from Satan. It does not matter the name the laboratory gave it, it is called the spirit of infirmity and it can manifest with so many names. The Lord Yahushua came into the house of Peter and saw Peter’s wife’s mother sick with what the doctor or laboratory called fever but when the Lord Yahushua touched her the fever left. (see Matthew 8:14-15). That shows you that it was a spirit behind that fever and it was the spirit that left and when it did, the resultant fever was gone too (see Luke 4:38-39). In Mark 9:17-27, we saw a person dumb and deaf but when the Lord Yahushua attended to him, we saw that it was a spirit of dumb and deaf that held him in bondage. In the laboratory, it was discovered that he was dumb and deaf maybe because of physical malfunction of organs but without any medical solution when that evil spirit responsible for that condition was cast out, he was able to speak and hear. Littered in scripture are examples that shows us that whatever your condition that it is the spirit of infirmity behind that operation and manipulation.
HAS THE THIEF STOLEN YOUR HEALTH?

HAS THE THIEF STOLEN YOUR HEALTH?
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.
John 10:10 (KJV)
You must stop explaining away your health condition. If you are sick today, recognize that sickness implies that the thief has stolen your health. Sickness is your health stolen by Satan, the thief. It is not because of cold or the weather. It is the devil, the thief, prowling about taking what does not belong to him. In Igbo language, Satan is ‘ekwensu.’ That is instructive because it means literally “ikwe ya esu” that is “if you agree, it would start raging” That is to say that until you agree with the terms of Satan, he is powerless and all his activities and wickedness cannot start raging in your life. You can say “Satan get lost now, my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, I curse your manoeuvrings and manipulations against my body now, get out in Yahushua’s name Amen” and that halts all his agenda against you. But you could also just be mute like a nepios and the devil will have a field day in tormenting your physical body.
BE SPIRITUALLY MINDED

BE SPIRITUALLY MINDED
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.III John 1:2 (KJV)
To access the realm of financial fortune and remain in that realm, you must be spiritually minded. The covenant of blessing is not a game of give and take, no! It is a relationship with Yahweh and being spiritually minded is key to maximizing your access and maintenance of the blessing of Yahweh on your life. Why is being spiritually minded important and what does it mean to be spiritually minded? Being spiritually minded is setting your mind on the Holy Spirit and the interest of Yahweh’s Kingdom. It means to walk after the Spirit of Yahweh. It means to live according to the dictates of the Spirit. As we have said over and over in the course of this month’s teachings that Yahweh is not after your pocket. Your pocket is too wretched for Yahweh to be eyeing. Yahweh is after your heart not your cash (see Proverbs 23:26). It takes being spiritually minded:
THE PLACE OF FAITH IN KINGDOM PROSPERITY

THE PLACE OF FAITH IN KINGDOM PROSPERITY
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to Yahweh must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.Hebrews 11:6 (KJV)
Your blessing is packaged in Yahweh’s Word but can only be delivered by faith. Hebrews 4:2 makes us understand that you can have the word preached unto you but until you mix it with faith in your heart, the word will not produce. Romans 10:17 says, ‘So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of Yahweh.’ Faith for prosperity comes by hearing the Word on prosperity. That is the reason the enemy keeps attacking the teachings on prosperity, because he knows that until you hear it, and hear it, faith will not come. Faith is not, “I agree.” That’s consent. Faith is not mental assent. Faith is that active living force that controls your attitude and your actions as you allow the Word you have encountered to direct and control you. When faith comes, you graduate from hearing to doing. It moves you to do what you heard. It is your actions that tell whether you believe what Yahweh has said or not. Yahweh weighs your actions, to prove your faith. Your action either betrays or authenticates your claim of faith (see 1 Samuel 2:3).
OBSTACLES TO ACCEPTABLE PRAISE (6): NEGATIVE PAST

OBSTACLES TO ACCEPTABLE 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.
PARTNERING WITH THE LORD INVOLVES (2): PREACHING THE GOSPEL

PARTNERING WITH THE LORD INVOLVES (2): PREACHING THE GOSPEL
And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
Mark 16:20 (KJV)
There is nothing sophisticated or special about preaching. Every believer is called to preach. To preach simply means to proclaim, to declare, to publish; to herald. When you talk to your colleague about his eternal destiny, and what the Lord Yahushua has done for him, that is preaching. Preaching is not for special people. It is not for pastors, evangelists, etc. No! A thousand times No! They were a minimum of 120 people that the Lord Yahushua gave the command to go and preach. They were not all apostles or teachers. They were just believers. Some of you go for lunch with your colleagues and all the while you are talking about your football clubs; that is preaching about your football clubs. You could even hear some people arguing about their favourite players from a mile away during lunch break. Beloved, that is exactly what preaching is all about. Instead of talking what does not have eternal value, why not talk about Yahushua HaMashiach. The time is very short. Make the most of every opportunity to help someone make a decision about where he/she would spend eternity.
HOW DOES YAHWEH-KIND OF FAITH COME? (3): BY KNOWING THE REALITY OF YOUR NEW CREATION STATUS

HOW DOES YAHWEH-KIND OF FAITH COME? (3): BY KNOWING THE REALITY OF YOUR NEW CREATION STATUS
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away? behold, all things are become new.
II Corinthians 5:17 (KJV)
Our redemption has a legal side which is very crucial for you to understand in order to stand in liberty and command of faith. You need to know that in the mind of Justice, we were recreated in Yahushua HaMashiach. This means that the justice for sin demands death. When HaMashiach died, the new creation died in and with Yahushua HaMashiach. In the death of Yahushua HaMashiach on the cross, the demand of Justice was fully satisfied. Halleluyah! That is not the end of the Story. Yahushua HaMashiach went to hell on our behalf and collected the key that Adam surrendered to Satan back. He was raised up on the third day with Zoe – the Yahweh-kind of life and as many as surrender to Him, He quickens (recreates and gives life) to their spirits.

WISDOM FACILITATES ROBUST GLORIOUS MARITAL LIFE (A)
Man is a creation of Adonai. It is also only Him that knows the best way that the man can function and fulfill purpose. That is why, it is wisdom to go to the manufacturer’s manual for man which is the Bible and find out the Wisdom steps to take to maximize his/her life. There are wisdom steps in the Word for every area of the man’s life including his marriage. Marriage is Yahweh’s initiative. He therefore, knows the best way to enjoy it. It is Wisdom to search out the keys the creator of marriage has made available for unlocking the treasures in the institution. It is important to note that the wisdom of Yahweh looks like foolishness with men. However, the foolishness of Yahweh if there is anything like that is wiser than men (see 1 Corinthians 1:25). No matter the school you attended and the resultant certificate that you parade, if you don’t humble yourself and subscribe to the wisdom of Yahweh concerning marriage, you will make a shipwreck of your marriage. The evidence of the foregoing statement is the divorce statistics the world over and looks like the number is more with the well read class. Education is not equal to wisdom. Divine Wisdom is a function of hearing and hearkening to the Word of Adonai. If you are too big to hear and obey the word of Yahweh – the Bible, you are too big for success in marriage. If you are too educated to humble yourself before the Word of Elohim, you are too educated to succeed in marriage. Truth is truth. There is no new generation truth. Truth is timeless and ageless.
