“Dear Father, thank You for Your love and mercy that are ever so new every morning. Thank You for seeing us through another week and for bringing us into a new week. Thank You for life, sound mind and body, peace, provisions, protection and divine encounters on the altar of prayers and in the Word. Thank You for not giving us up to the will of our enemies. Thank You for not allowing us to run helter skelter in any satanic agenda. I love You Father forever in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!” It is your week of all possibilities!
You are long overdue for rest in your life. You cannot continue to go from war to war, from battle to battle. That devil is a liar. I declare rest to your soul today. I decree that war cease in your life from today. That agenda of incessant conflict is blasted now by fire. I decree rest on every side in your life, health, family, children, finances and destiny. Enter into Yahweh’s rest from today. I decree a supernatural turnaround in your life from today in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen! Shabbat Shalom!
But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? James 2:20 (KJV)
Romans 3:27-28 (BBE) says, ‘What reason, then, is there for pride? It is shut out. By what sort of law? of works? No, but by a law of faith. For this reason, then, a man may get righteousness by faith without the works of the law.’ Apostle Paul is saying that you don’t need the works of the law to emerge the righteousness of Yahweh in HaMashiach. That the works of the law cannot get you saved, only faith in Yahushua HaMashiach can. James 2:26 (NET) says, ‘For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.’ Apostle James is saying that if your faith in Yahushua HaMashiach does not produce good works, that your faith is dead. Now, the question is: Is there a conflict between the view of Apostle Paul and Apostle James? The answer is emphatically NO. There is no conflict whatsoever between the views of these Apostles. They are saying two different things and it is important you understand it.
Apostle Paul was addressing a false teaching that faith in Yahushua HaMashiach alone was not enough for salvation, that you must have to observe the law otherwise you couldn’t be saved. The teachers of these falsehood were insisting that new believers be circumcised and observe the law otherwise they are not saved. But the works of the law cannot save anybody. If it could, then there wouldn’t have been need for Yahushua HaMashiach to come and die. No person can be saved by observing the law. Observing the law is good because the law is the commandment of Yahweh but it is grossly impotent in securing salvation for humanity. If you want to be saved, the only way is to believe in the sacrifice of Yahushua HaMashiach and receive Him into your spirit/heart by confessing Him as Lord and Saviour. As simple as this is, it is the only way to be saved.
Apostle James on the other hand was addressing high-handedness of some believers whose faith is only by mouth, without works of mercy and compassion. The truth is that if you are truly born again, the love of the brethren must be in your heart. If your heart is devoid of that love and compassion, your faith is dead, you haven’t met with the Lord at all. James 2:15-17 (NET) says, ‘15 If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacks daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, keep warm and eat well,” but you do not give them what the body needs, what good is it? 17 So also faith, if it does not have works, is dead being by itself.’ The works here are the works that show that you believe not the works that will secure salvation for you. You already have salvation. This is called ‘the works of faith’. It is working in obedience to the word because you believe the one who said it. So, there is no conflict between the two concepts. Let me ask you, does the faith you claim to have in Yahushua HaMashiach produce good works (See Ephesians 2:10)? Selah!
REMEMBER: Genuine faith powers good works.
PRAYER: Dear Father, thank you for your word to me today. Help me to be mindful to do good to my family, brethren and neighbours in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: Today marks the end of every form of hard-heartedness. Your life shall be characterised with good works in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

Frustration is not your portion. Running helter skelter to pay your children’s school fees is not your portion. Today, by the power of the Ruach HaKadosh (the blessed Holy Spirit), I attack that spell of empty-handed in your life and family. I decree your hands are blessed and shall from now begin to hold resources. I decree that money shall meet money in your hands from now. Favour shall meet favour in your life from now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed. Luke 17:14 (KJV)
Faith is not a mystery. Faith is responding in obedience to the Word of the Lord – the Bible. Stop struggling to believe; just behave the Word and you commit the one that spoke it to perform. Do you know Yahweh has exalted his Word above all His name? Psalm 138:2 says, “I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.”. One of the things that cannot fail in life is the Word of Yahweh – the Bible. If you can find what is written and act on it, you can rewrite your story. As a believer, you are not helpless and powerless. Faith is the force that makes the almightiness of Yahweh available at your instance. The process of producing proofs is get what is written, activate it by speaking to yourself, devil and Yahweh, receive it by acting out your side of the deal. Every word of Yahweh gives you opportunity of a response.
Ten leprous men came to Yahushua and from a distance shouted to Him, ‘Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.’(Luke 17:13 KJV). In His compassion, The Lord Jesus responded, ‘Go show yourselves to the priests’. What they do with that instruction was going to determine the outcome they would have from their encounter with the Lord Yahushua. Are you sick? What is that request you have been making to the Lord? The link to your manifestation is your response to the Word. The Bible says, ‘and it came to pass, that as they went, they were cleansed.’ This is something to shout about! As they went, they were cleansed. Acting on the Word, always produces what the Word talks about. When we act on Yahweh’s Word, that’s faith. And when we’re in faith, we will receive answers to prayer. If we fail to act on Yahweh’s Word, just waiting for something to come to us first before we’ll believe, we will not receive what we need from Yahweh.
Naaman, the Syrian captain would have missed his miracle by refusing to act on the Word of Yahweh as spoken to him by Elisha, the same way many today are arguing and negotiating with the Word of Yahweh. Acting on the Word to prove that you believe Yahweh is a universal principle of faith without which, the power of Yahweh can never manifest for the benefit of man. In II Kings 5:10 (KJV), ‘And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean.’ Whatever makes you angry at the Word of Yahweh from the Bible or spoken to you from the Spirit of Yahweh by a man of Yahweh, is gunning to depriving you of your testimony. After being convinced by his servants, Naaman went as instructed and came back with a miracle. Friend, your miracle is iobedience to the word away. If you really know, you will act.
REMEMBER: The miracles of God are at the mercy of the obedience of faith of man.
CONFESSION: I am a doer of the Word. I am quick to respond to the word. I am a word addict. I am established in the Word of faith with appropriate response that commands instant manifestation of the power and glory of Yahweh for me in all areas of my life. Hallelujah!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: Grace to act on the Word in obedience is released now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Mark 11:23 (KJV)
There is the law of faith that you must learn today. This law of faith states that CONFESSION OF THE PROMISES OF YAHWEH COMES BEFORE POSSESSION OF THE PROMISES. We must learn this law if we are going to be successful. I boldly declare and confess Yahweh’s Word, then and only then do I possess the promised blessing or benefit. I make my lips do the work. I give the Word its place. I take sides with the Word. If I side in with the disease and pain, there is no healing for me. But I repudiate the disease and the sickness with my words, which are an expression of my faith in Yahweh’s Word. My confession gives me possession.
Faith is governed by our confession. If I say that I have been prayed for and I am waiting for Yahweh to heal me, then I am not in faith and I have repudiated my healing. Instead, my confession should be this: “The Word declares that I am healed. Based on Yahweh’s Word, I thank the Father for my healing now, not when I see my healing. And I praise Him I am healed because according to His Word it is a fact.”
Think of it this way: As humans, we are constantly affirming something. Sometimes our affirmations are disastrous. In other words, the effects of your own words upon your life have the power to defeat you. For example, if you continually say you can’t do something because you don’t have the strength, you will begin to feel your strength actually diminishing. You are left weak and full of indecision and doubt. Your efficiency is gone. An affirmation or a confession is the expression of what we believe, whether good or bad. The confession of my faith created the reality of it. Some people continually confess the wrong thing. They confess their doubt and failure. They little realize that their negative confession robs them of their ability and efficiency. They little realize that their confession can change the solid, straight road of life into a boggy, clogged mire. The confession of weakness will bind you and hold you in captivity. Talk poverty and you will have plenty of it. Confess your want or lack of money all of the time and you will always have lack. These principles of confessing work because they are in the Word.
When you say you don’t have the money, you are confessing lack. The Bible says, “For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath” (Matt. 13:12). Your confession is the expression of your faith. Confessions of lack and sickness shut Yahweh out of your life and let Satan in. Confessions of disease and sickness give sickness dominion over you. They honour Satan and rob Yahweh of His glory. So, don’t confess your doubts. Confess Yahweh’s Word, and Yahweh’s Word will work for you.
REMEMBER: Confession Of The Promises Of God Comes Before Possession Of The Promises.
CONFESSION: My life is a proof that the Word works. No matter how it is, my situations align with the Word. I am the healed the devil is trying to afflict, I am the rich, poverty, lack or want doesn’t know my address. Halleluyah!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: Your tongue shall not be your ruin. From now receive grace to speak according to the Word in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

It is the plan of Yahweh that you be rich and very wealthy. Yahushua took your poverty so that you might take his riches. That spell of empty-handedness is blasted today. That siege over your finances is broken today. Money will never finish again in your hands. I release you into the realms of abundance of resources from today. You shall never beg to live again; that yoke is broken off you forever. Enter into your financial rest from this day in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
CALLING THE THINGS THAT BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY WERE
… before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. Romans 4:17B [KJV]
The Yahweh-kind of faith calls the things that are not as though they were. This is one vital manifestation of the Yahweh-kind of faith that you must start practising from today. In Genesis 1:2 (KJV), the word says that ‘And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.’ When you see issues in your life and they look wasted and without form, don’t complain and wail. Do what Yahweh did. Genesis 1:3 (KJV) says, ‘And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.’ Yahweh started calling the things that were not presently real into reality. ‘Light, be!’ Yahweh called. As Yahweh called them forth, the things that be not, become. This is one of the principal tenets of faith. You must ignore the situation and speak your expectation. Until you call forth your expectation, you cannot experience manifestation. You desire to be married, start calling forth your husband, wherever he is under the sun to show up and don’t stop or waiver until he shows. In any area of expectation, call forth your desire that be not as though they were.
Yahweh came to Abram one day and started calling the things that be not in Abram as though they were. He said, ‘As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.’ (Genesis 17:4 KJV). ‘Even though you Abram is barren and don’t have children, I call you father of many nations and I change your name to Abraham’, Yahweh said. Yahweh called forth the destiny of Abraham and Sarah of being father and mother of many nations when they were still barren. That is the Yahweh-kind of faith in operation. Beloved, don’t wait for your situation to change because it will not change without applying the force of faith to it. Start calling forth the things that be not in your life now as though they were. People may mock you and make jest of you, that is their business. When your story changes, the same people will change their talk.
It is the same principle that Yahweh applied in the valley of dry bones. In Ezekiel 37, we saw a very deplorable situation of unfathomable despondence beyond words. Dry bones, very dry. Your situation cannot be compared to that in the valley of dry bones. Yahweh brought the prophet Ezekiel to the valley of dry bones and he observed that ‘… lo, they were very dry.’ (Ezekiel 37:2b). For Yahweh to demonstrate to you my reader that you can effect a change in your present situation and that of your family, Yahweh didn’t speak to the dry bones, rather He told Ezekiel to speak to them. Friend, you can speak to your situation by faith and see the change that you desire. Responding to your situation according to the Word of Yahweh is a sure instrument of seeing the results that you desire. Shalom!
REMEMBER: The Yahweh-kind of faith calls forth the things that be not as though they were.
CONFESSION: In name of Yahushua HaMashiach, I am not disadvantaged in life. I have the power to effect changes in my life and my world by the Word of Yahweh and as I speak today, I have what I say. Hallelujah!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: The Word of Yahweh in your mouth concerning your situation shall begin to produce results in your life from now in Yahushua’s name Amen!

You are not the sick seeking healing and deliverance. A thousand times NO! You are the healed that Satan is oppressing with sickness. Healing belongs to you, you don’t need to beg for it. It is your bread as a child of Yahweh in HaMashiach. Now, I curse the root of that Satanic oppression in your body. I command it uprooted and set ablaze now. I decree the release of fresh organs for anyone whose organ has been damaged. Be healed now and remain healed forever in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.Hebrews 11:1 (KJV)
There is a difference between faith and hope. Hope is confident expectation of a good future or salvation. Hope is in the future. Hope never materializes because once it materializes it is no longer hope. This is very instructive and striking, never miss it. As long as you are in hope, you will never see your hope materialize because if it does, hope ceases to exist. Romans 8:24 (KJV) says, ‘For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?’ For as long as you are in the realm of hope, you will lack manifestations, because there is always tomorrow and tomorrow never comes. But faith is now. Faith is bringing hope into present reality. Thank Yahweh we do have a Blessed Hope. The Blessed Hope of the Church is the soon return of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach, the resurrection of the saved dead, the rapture of the living saints, the hope of heaven, and the hope of seeing our loved ones and friends. Thank Yahweh for that hope. We rejoice in that hope, but that’s all future tense. Jesus is coming again, whether we believe it or not. He is coming because the Word says so. The resurrection, rapture and the return of the Lord is going to take place whether we have faith in it or not.
Faith is the force that converts your hope into your present hour inheritance. Moffatt’s translation of this verse reads: “Now faith means that we are confident of what we hope for, convinced of what we do not see.” One modern translation of Hebrews 11:1 reads: “Faith is giving substance … to things hoped for.” What Yahweh is simply telling us is that faith is laying hold of the unseen realm of hope and bringing it into the realm of reality. Too many times when it comes to receiving the Holy Spirit or healing or an answer to prayer, many people are just simply hoping they will receive and as long as they abide in hope, frustration abounds.
But it’s not hoping that gets the job done; it’s believing. The Bible says, “Now faith is . . .” (Heb. 11:1). If it’s not now, it’s not faith. Someone said, “Well, I believe I’ll get the Holy Ghost sometime.” That’s not faith, that’s hope, because hope is always future tense or pointing to the future. But faith is now. Faith says, “I’ll receive right now; I believe I have my petition now when I pray” (see Mark 11:24). We need to realize this when it comes to receiving from Yahweh. Oh, it makes such a difference when you really believe Yahweh instead of just hoping you’ll receive your petition from Him – whether it’s receiving the Holy Ghost, healing, or any answer to prayer. At what point is your answer released? At the point of prayer, ‘… when you pray believe, that you receive them and you shall have them.’ (see Mark 11:24). Is it when you have your answer that you receive them? No, it is when you pray that you receive your answer. Whatever you cannot receive when you pray, you cannot have in reality. I hope this sinks into the spirit of someone. Selah!
REMEMBER: Faith is now. Hope is future.
CONFESSION: believe the Word and my faith lays hold of my inheritance now. It is not tomorrow, it is now. I receive my expectation now. It is now my present hour reality. Halleluyah!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: That your prayer is already answered, receive it now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
