    CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (9):  DO NOT REJOICE AT INJUSTICE OR UNRIGHTEOUSNESS

    It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail.
    I Corinthians 13:6  (AMP)

    How our lives and relationships will be transformed if we can just start manifesting the Yahweh-kind of love.  This love does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness.  What does it mean to not rejoice in iniquity?  The word “rejoiceth” in the phrase “rejoiceth not in iniquity” according to KJV is translated from the Greek word chairō, which means to rejoice, to be glad, to be delighted or pleased. Think about when you are delighted in something. You may dwell on it or talk about it—maybe you even make a big deal about it or magnify it.  You rejoice in it, and it makes you glad.  When we manifest the love of Yahweh, we absolutely don’t rejoice in unrighteousness.  We assuredly don’t take pleasure in wrongdoing.  And we most certainly don’t gloat over other men’s sins nor show gladness when others do wrong or fail.

    You probably have seen or heard something happened to someone and you responded “Yes, he/she deserves it” maybe because of the way they have treated you in the past.  That kind of response is not the Yahweh-kind of love’s way.  Injustice anywhere is injustice everywhere.  When someone is unjustly treated and you are happy because the person has also treated you unjustly, you are not manifesting the Yahweh-kind of love.  When someone is unjustly treated, no matter what the person has done, stand against the injustice because the Yahweh-kind of love does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness.  No matter how “deserving” it may seem for someone to “get what’s coming to them”, that’s not what love would do.  Love does not avenge itself.  Love is not secretly glad someone was injured or hurt or paid back for their wrongs.

    The Yahweh-kind of love does not rejoice when someone falls into sin.  It does not condone unrighteousness.  There is no trophy in knowing we were right about another’s failings; a heart of love is sorrowful, prayerful, and broken over the fall or faults of another.  Love does not live at peace with unrighteousness.  Love cares too much for other people to “wink at sin” or to look the other way when iniquity enters the camp.  Love cares enough to confront sin, even to “expose them.” (Ephesians 5:11).  We must be bold to stand up against unrighteousness, iniquity, and injustice.  To not just believe that unrighteousness is wrong, but to live a life that demonstrates what truth is, to show the world another way of living, and to campaign against wickedness by our own good deeds. Love takes a stand!

    REMEMBER:   The Yahweh-kind of love does not rejoice in injustice and sin but rejoices when right and truth prevail.

    PRAYER:   Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your word to me today.  I ask for the grace to manifest Your love that is shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Ghost.  I do not rejoice in injustice and unrighteousness in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE:    The grace to function with a heart of love that does not rejoice in injustice receive it now in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (2): IS KIND

    WordForTodayDevotional_09082026

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (2):  IS KIND

    … love is kind and thoughtful, …
    I Corinthians 13:4 (AMP)

    The second attribute of the Yahweh-kind of love is kindness.   What is it to be kind?  The phrase “is kind” in I Corinthians 13:4 is the Greek word chrēsteuomai, from the root word chrēstos, which E. W. Bullinger’s Critical Lexicon and Concordance to the English and Greek New Testament defines as “good, gentle, benevolent…actively beneficent in spite of ingratitude.”   Both “benevolent” and “beneficent” describe someone who does good.  To be kind is to do good unto others, even if they don’t show appreciation for our gestures.  The Yahweh-kind of love is always the answer to the odds of human demeanor.   That definition of chresteuomai says ‘actively beneficent in spite of ingratitude’.

    When the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach taught his disciples how to love with the love of Yahweh, He gave them the example of the kindness of Yahweh.  In Luke 6:31,32,35, the word says ‘31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. 32 For if ye love [agapaō] them which love [agapaō] you, what thank [recompense, reward] have ye? for sinners also love [agapaō] those that love [agapaō] them. 35 But love [agapaō] ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind [chrēstos] unto the unthankful and to the evil.‘

    Yahweh is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.  This is the love of Yahweh.  We see this expressed in Ephesians 2::4-5: ‘4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love [agapē] wherewith he loved [agapaō] us, 5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)‘   We are recipients of Yahweh’s amazing love, for we have experienced His kindness toward us through the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach.  He loved us even when we were dead in sins.  Titus 3:3-6 says ‘3 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.  4 But after that the kindness [chrēstotēs] and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,  5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost [the gift of holy spirit]; 6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour.‘

    Yahweh saved us according to His mercy—not because we deserved it.  Yahweh’s love and kindness are not dependent on the goodness or gratitude of others.  Extending the kindness of Yahweh to another person, especially when they are unthankful or evil, is a powerful way to positively affect someone’s life and the Lord Yahushua expects you to release kindness today and always to a hurting and ungrateful world.

    REMEMBER:   The Yahweh-kind of love is benevolent and beneficent in spite of ingratitude.

    CONFESSION:   I am a kind person and through me the Lord Yahushua is extending kindness to the hurting world around.  Oh how much kindness we have received from the Lord!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE:   Something glorious is sparking off in your life from this day as you key into kindness in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • LOVE – WHAT IS IT? (1)

    WordForTodayDevotional_02082026

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Sunday, August 2, 2026

    LOVE – WHAT IS IT? (1)

    May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height?
    Ephesians 3:18 [KJV]

    Ephesians 3:17-19 says, “17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith? that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,  18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height?  19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.”  The truth is that no one can comprehend the Yahweh-kind of love.  It is just a mystery that is beyond human comprehension.  When we ask what the Yahweh-kind of love means, we are just trying to scratch the matter according to what humans can apprehend.  Without going into the theology of the Yahweh-kind of love, we shall try to present the matter in simple language.  The first thing to establish is what Arthur W. Pink wrote: “There are many who talk about the love of God, who are total strangers to the God of love. The divine love is commonly regarded as a species of amiable weakness, a sort of good-natured indulgence; it is reduced to a mere sickly sentiment, patterned after human emotion. The truth is that on this, as on everything else, our thoughts need to be formed and regulated by what is revealed in Scripture. That there is urgent need for this is apparent not only from the ignorance which so generally prevails, but also from the low state of spirituality which is now so sadly evident everywhere among professing Christians. How little real love there is for God. One chief reason for this is because our hearts are so little occupied with His wondrous love for His people. The better we are acquainted with His love—its character, fullness, blessedness—the more our hearts will be drawn out in love to Him.”

    So many cannot comprehend how a God that is said to be love can cast His creation into the lake of fire.  This is because as Arthur W. Pink says, they understand the Yahweh-kind of love ‘as species of amiable weakness, a sort of good-natured indulgence’.  Beloved, when you understand the Yahweh-kind of love, you would be amazed at the difference between what it is and what you had known all your life.   What is this Divine Love all about?

    Firstly, Yahweh-kind of love is sacrificial.  John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”  Yahweh’s love comes at a very high cost.  John 15:13 says, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”   Yahweh-kind of love lays down all for the sake of you His love.  Romans 5:5 (NET) says, “But God demonstrates his own love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”   Love always has a price tag (see Galatians 2:20; Ephesians 5:25; I John 4:9-10).  From eternity past, Yahweh has set His love on us and purposed to save us through the sacrificial death of His Son.

    Beloved have you responded to the love of Yahweh?  Today is a good time to do so.  Pray the prayer today with all your heart and that settles it.

    REMEMBER:   Yahweh-kind of love is sacrificial.

    PRAYER:    Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today.  I thank You for loving me enough to pay the ultimate sacrifice to save me.  I accept You today into my life as Lord and Saviour.  I receive forgiveness by the Blood of Yahushua.  Thank You for saving me in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE:   I see your transformation by Divine Love this month in the precious name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • THE FEAR OF YAHWEH (B)

    WordForTodayDevotional_26072026

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Sunday, July 26, 2026

    THE FEAR OF YAHWEH (B)

    Then had the churches rest throughout all Judæa and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.
    Acts 9:31 (KJV)

    We are continuing from yesterday. We are looking at what the fear of the Lord really means. Firstly, we said that it is not figurative. Secondly, the Fear of the Lord is to understand Yahweh to the extent that you literally tremble in conducting your affairs as a person. What do you understand that evoke this fear? His Person, that Yahweh is not a player or joker. His holiness – that there is no unrighteousness with Him. His Position on sin – anything that goes contrary to His Word is sin and it is regarded as rebellion. His judgments – you see how He dealt with people that sinned before to determine your fate with Him. His justice – that he does not respect persons. Whatever you are makes absolutely no meaning with the Lord. II Chronicles 19:7 “Wherefore now let the fear of the Lord be upon you; take heed and do it: for there is no iniquity with the Lord our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of gifts.”

    Thirdly, the fear of the Lord means to be in love with Yahweh in that dimension that your greatest dread in life is to displease Him. In conducting your affairs your greatest caution is the pleasure of the Lord your love. Deuteronomy 13:4 “Ye shall walk after the Lord your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.” This means to develop a heart that longs and yearns for only the pleasure of the Lord in ones life. This is the singular factor that gave David a place in Yahweh’s heart. Deuteronomy 10:12 “And now, Israel, what doth the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,”

    Fifthly, the fear of the Lord is to hate evil. Proverbs 8:13 “The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.” Whatever that the Word call evil is evil, no matter who thinks otherwise. A few of them include, pride and arrogance, the froward mouth (Hebrew tahpukah meaning perverse or fraud). Dictionary defines perverse as: a. Marked by a disposition to oppose and contradict. b. Resistant to guidance or discipline. c. Deviating from what is considered moral or right or proper or good. The Father hates a froward perverse mouth. It is evil before Him. In these last days evil will be on rampage (see II Timothy 3:1-5). You don’t only hate evil, but you also hate evil in the lives of people; you don’t go on cheering evil. Psalms 139:21-22 “21 Do not I hate them, O Lord, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? 22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.” If you are at peace and at home with evil in the lives of people around you, that is a clear indication that the fear of the Lord is not active in your life. Selah!

    REMEMBER: The fear of the Lord is to hate evil.

    CONFESSION: I am walking by the Word. I am walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit and I am seeing multiplication in all realms. Halleluyah!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree hatred for evil upon your spirit-man today in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • RIGHTEOUSNESS NATURE

    WordForTodayDevotional_19072026

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Sunday, July 19, 2026

    RIGHTEOUSNESS NATURE

    Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away? behold, all things are become new.
    I Corinthians 5:17 (KJV)

    The problem of sin is not just an act but a nature. Sin is a nature in the unsaved. That is why just a decision to stop doing something cannot suffice because sin is who you are if you are not born again. In the same vein, for the believer, there is a new nature called the nature of righteousness which you received at salvation. You are not a refurbished person at salvation, you are a new creation. This literally means that you are now a new specie of being that has not existed before. That is the mystery of righteousness. While you are seeing yourself as someone that just believed in Yahushua as Lord, the real fact is that you are a new creation that does not have a past. That is because your past was crucified with HaMashiach on Calvary. So, quit feeling the pain of what you did in the past, the record no longer exist at that point you believed and confessed with your mouth the Lordship of HaMashiach, your past was wiped out. You are now a new creation, a new specie of being that has no past. That is not all. You now have a new nature and that is the nature of Yahweh, the nature of righteousness. This new nature is what makes it possible for you to be able to stand before Yahweh sinless and able to accommodate divine presence. This nature of righteousness is why you can live a holy life. Without being righteous, you cannot live righteous. Your being determines your doing. Why does a lion roar? Because he is a lion and it is in his nature to roar. Why does a sinner commit sin? Because he is a sinner and sin is his nature.

    The challenge with many people is that they never renew their mind to align with this nature of righteousness in their spirit. You became a new creation spiritually, in your spirit-man. That did not affect your mind. It is you that will have to do something to your mind by renewing it with the Word of Yahweh. It is your responsibility to control your body by the Word. You have the nature of righteousness in your spirit but for you to live it out, you must renew your mind with the Word and discipline your body to conform to the Word. Romans 12:1-2 says, “1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

    This is the missing link in the lives of so many children of Yahweh. They are new creation, all right but they are not renewing their minds and surely not presenting their bodies a living sacrifice, so there is no expression to the nature of righteousness on their inside. Wake up!

    REMEMBER: New birth brings you into the nature of righteousness.

    CONFESSION: I am the righteousness of Yahweh in HaMashiach with the nature of righteousness. My mind is constantly being renewed by the Word and my body disciplined to align with the Word. Glory be Yahweh!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree your liberty from the corrupting influences of this world now in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • MACHINERIES OF SIN (3): REBELLION

    WordForTodayDevotional_12072026

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Sunday, July 12, 2026

    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!

  • THE NATURE OF SIN (3): SIN IS DESTRUCTIVE

    WordForTodayDevotional_05072026

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Sunday, July 5, 2026

    THE NATURE OF SIN (3): SIN IS DESTRUCTIVE

    The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
    II Corinthians 15:56 (KJV)

    Do you know that sin is at the root of every trouble and calamity of man? There were no calamities before sin came. There were no sicknesses or accidents. Before sin came, man was absolutely secure—divine presence was his covering. He was heavenly, gorgeously dressed, but sin robbed him of all glory, and he started wearing leaves for clothing. As soon as sin came, all manner of calamities followed, because Proverbs 13:13 says, “Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed…” If there’s a “but” around your life now, it must go; otherwise it will send you packing, just like sin sent Adam packing from the Garden of Eden (see Genesis 3:21). Sin is a destroyer; it is a silent killer! See how it destroyed the destiny of Samson (see Judges 16). Samson was the strength of Israel in the Old Testament, but Satan trapped and destroyed him. He became a toy for the heathen. Though he killed more people at his death, he also died. A mighty treasure turned to a toy overnight, all because of sin.

    Bishop David Oyedepo told a story: “A young usher used to steal from the offering bucket. This was his regular source of income. Then he was struck with tuberculosis. When he confessed to me, I told him to ask God for mercy, and I also pleaded for mercy on his behalf. I desired for him to live, but he died! Somebody else died, who on his deathbed confessed to impropriety of one million naira, which he claimed to have returned. But he died of a horrible disease, because “The sting of death is sin”!” God has shown us the path of righteousness so we can destroy the mystery of sin, and walk in holiness. Let’s walk in that path. Not everyone that left Egypt arrived Canaan. They died unnatural death in the wilderness. They died a death of judgment, because they continued in sin. They provoked God to anger, and they were destroyed by the destroyer (see 1 Corinthians 10:10). Not everyone who is born again will arrive Canaan; so let’s watch it.

    The ravages of sin is all around us today. From HIV to lungs destroyed by smoking, to madness as a function of smoking hard drugs. Sin is indeed destructive. Beloved, any sin that you tolerate today will destroy tomorrow. The call of Yahweh for you to clean up and live holy is absolutely for your own good. If you want to walk with the invisible supernatural Yahweh, you must clean up and get ride of any sin. Beloved, iniquity ruins. Ezekiel 18:30 says, “Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord God. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.” Run for your dear life today. Selah!

    REMEMBER: Sin destroys in time and eternity.

  • PILLARS OF PROSPERITY (6): WAITING

    PILLARS OF PROSPERITY (6): WAITING

    And so, when he had been waiting calmly for a long time, God’s word to him was put into effect.
    Hebrews 6:15 (BBE)

    This is the eagle’s secret. Yahweh swore to Abraham, yet he needed patience to obtain that promise. The Bible said, “after he had patiently endured”, not after he had subjected himself to rigorous senseless fasting, not after he had struggled and sweated it out; but after he had patiently endured. Abraham needed to have endured. Indeed, every man, every “eagle Believer”, require a degree of covenant patience. The covenant of prosperity is not a magic wand, it’s an adventure of faith. “After he had patiently endured…”, not after he had wept aloud. We are not called to weep, but to wait. In Habakkuk 2:3, Yahweh said every vision is for an appointed time, so though it tarries, wait for it. Did He say weep for it? Did He say run around for it? No! Wait! “Wait for it. It will surely come, it shall not tarry.” The reason we are wasting is because we don’t like to wait. Please understand that quick prosperity will always end in grievous austerity, because it lacks the required foundation for lasting results.

    Why Wait? Your lifting with Yahweh is for appointed times and due seasons, and He’s the only One who knows when your due season has come. If you strive to lay hold on something before you’re due, you’ll be doomed. Galatians 6:9 says, “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” Don’t be tired in your covenant walk, because there is a due season. If you’re on your feet when that season comes, you will reap your harvest, but if you faint, you fall. “If it will work, it ought to have worked by now.” That’s murmuring. When you murmur, you destroy your seed sown, and then you will have to begin all over again. Yahweh runs a due season calendar on each one of us. When you are due, He will not deny you. But if you faint before you are due, you lose it all. It’s better to wait or you waste. Abraham heard from Elohim directly, yet he needed patience to obtain the promise. If you will not be patient, you may as well end up a patient in the hospital. Selah!

    REMEMBER: There is always a waiting time with the Lord.

    CONFESSION: I am full of patience. I am not in a haste because the person that believes shall not make haste. I am waiting for the manifestation of the promise and I shall never be disappointed. Halleluyah!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: Your season to take delivery is here. No more delay in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • THE UNMATCHABLE HUNDREDFOLD RETURN

    #WordForTodayDevotional_21062026

    THE UNMATCHABLE HUNDREDFOLD RETURN

    But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions? and in the world to come eternal life.
    Mark 10:30 (KJV)

    “And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel’s,” (Mark 10:29). This is the reward of dedication. When you leave everything for the Lord Yahushua and for the interest of His Kingdom, you are assured of a hundredfold returns now in this time. “Now in this time” means in your life-time; in this side of eternity called time. Whatever you do for the Lord Yahushua and for the gospel has a hundredfold returns attached to it. The best enterprise on earth is the gospel and kingdom expansion endeavours. Why do I conclude that? Let us see the parable of the sower where the Lord Yahushua talked about this hundredfold returns. In Matthew 13:8, we read, “But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.” The seed that was planted into the good soil yielded some thirtyfold, some sixtyfold and some hundredfold. Irrespective of the fact that they were planted in a good soil, some yielded just thirtyfold and some sixtyfold. Thirtyfold and sixtyfold are great returns on their own but then, they are not as good as hundredfold. But there is a guarantee of a hundredfold returns when you are dedicated to the gospel. Whatever you give up for the Lord and for the gospel’s, you are assured of a hundredfold returns. It is not a probability but a surety. This is why dedication to the Lord Yahushua and the gospel is the best thing that can happen to your life and destiny. When you are dedicated, sown into the work of the Lord, your life begins to bring forth abundance beyond words.

    Hundredfold is not hundred times. Start with a one fold return and you receive two. A two fold return gives you four; three fold gives you eight; then sixteen, thirty-two, sixty-four, one hundred twenty-eight, two hundred fifty-six which is only eight fold. Sound impossible…then it has to be Yahweh’s principle. I could not stand not knowing what the real numbers would be so I set out to crunch some numbers; at just thirty fold you would get a whopping 1,073,701,824 (that’s one billion, seventy-three million, seven hundred-one thousand, eight hundred twenty-four). Listen, we’re talking nine zeroes here; that’s phenomenal. Care to take a guess what sixty fold would be?

    After all that is just thirty fold again. If you guessed 2,147,403,648 you are absolutely wrong. Sixty fold is 1,151,973,021,073,889,216 (one quintillion, one hundred fifty-one quadrillion, nine hundred seventy-three trillion, twenty-one billion, seventy-three million, eight hundred eighty-nine thousand, two hundred sixteen) which is slightly more than double the thirty fold. How good is Yahweh…eighteen zeroes! And that’s only sixty fold. Guess, go ahead I dare you…if you are like me, I did not know theses numbers existed. I can now say them but still cannot wrap my mind around them…okay here goes…one hundred fold is 1,201,064,595,207,167,685,882,431,343,616 (one nonillion, two hundred-one octillion, sixty-four septillion, five hundred ninety-five sextillion, two hundred seven quintillion, one hundred sixty-seven quadrillion, six hundred eighty-five trillion, eight hundred eighty-two billion, four hundred thirty one million, three hundred forty-three thousand, six hundred-sixteen). This is whooping thirty zeroes!

    And these numbers are just for one penny or dollar or seed. What if instead of giving one dollar you gave one hundred or a thousand. If you received an hundredfold return and wanted to know how much that would be just multiply 100 x 1,201,064,595,207,167,685,882,431,343,616 = 10,106,459,520,716,768,588,243,134,361,600.

    REMEMBER: The hundredfold is Yahweh’s plan for you. Go for it in faith!

    PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. I believe and connect to my hundredfold return on both my physical and financial input into the gospel in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: Receive a hundredfold return from now in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • FOUNDATION FOR PROSPERITY (3): AFFECTION

    #WordForTodayDevotional_14062026

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Sunday, June 14, 2026

    FOUNDATION FOR PROSPERITY (3): AFFECTION

    Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
    Habakkuk 3:18 (KJV)

    Deuteronomy 28:47-48 says “47 Because thou servedst not the Lord thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things; 48 Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the Lord shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.” Today, we want to consider the foundation for prosperity called affection. I define affection as delightsome commitment—getting involved with excitement. There is this prophetic parable in Jeremiah 23:36-39, “36 And the burden of the Lord shall ye mention no more: for every man’s word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the Lord of hosts our God. 37 Thus shalt thou say to the prophet, What hath the Lord answered thee? and, What hath the Lord spoken? 38 But since ye say, The burden of the Lord; therefore thus saith the Lord; Because ye say this word, The burden of the Lord, and I have sent unto you, saying, Ye shall not say, The burden of the Lord; 39 Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly forget you, and I will forsake you, and the city that I gave you and your fathers, and cast you out of my presence:” So you have to be delighted in Yahweh, you have to be excited! Yahweh loves a cheerful giver. That is, Yahweh doesn’t love just the giver, but the one that gives cheerfully. Giving therefore without being cheerful is wasting your seed. It has no future. When you do it as a burden and not as a delight, you end up in shame and reproach. When you don’t obey Yahweh with delight, it’s a curse.

    Yahweh is not a taskmaster. He brought us out of the taskmaster’s domain in Egypt, so we can enjoy His favours and blessings. Yahweh must not be seen as a burden, otherwise life remains a burden for you! When you are not delighted in your service unto Yahweh, you suffer lack. You know why many people are in lack today? They give their tithes with complaints and murmuring! Any time you’re not excited, please never drop an offering, it’s a waste! Serve the Lord with gladness of heart! There is nothing that has happened to you that is not common to man. But when you now make your own special, you become a special problem to Yahweh. Yahweh is not a burden! There is no special problem in this world, don’t create one for yourself! There’s nothing around you that you cannot handle. There’s a great tomorrow for you! It’s not a burden serving the Lord, it’s a privilege! Affection is an expression of love. Selah!

    REMEMBER: Your love for the Lord Yahushua must be confirmed for you to be ready for prosperity.

    PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. I ask for the grace to love you with all my heart in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I command your love for the Lord to come alive in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
