Never Give Up!

This is the day that the Lord has made, i will rejoice and be glad in it! Psalm 118:14
Beloved, in life we pass through valleys and mountains, rainy days and sunny days, ups and downs. And we find ourselves at our high and low points in life. The attitude we have during our valley days, our rainy days and down days will determine our strength and character we will potray in our mountains days and sunny days. Where are you now? dont give up, your mountain days are coming where you won't shed any more tears, where you will look back and be laugh and be able to encourage and lift up friends and family who are still climbing the mountain.
Have a blessed day.

Ambush

“Then you shall rise from the AMBUSH and seize the city, for the Lord your God will deliver it into your hand.” Joshua 8:7. The Oasis of Hope Devotional for 2day! We cannot expect to have victory over d enemy by running away; we must lay ambush for them.
Ambush is a military strategy which means to lurk, or to lie in wait in a concealed position with d purpose of attacking an enemy by surprise or to attack to a point when temporarily undefended.
Beloved, every believer who wants to experience victory in spiritual warfare must learn d ropes & understand what it takes to defeat d enemy on all fronts. We are commanded to fight & not to evade d conflict. Israel had been defeated, but now God instructed them to set up an ambush. It’s time to launch a counter-attack! It’s time to draw d enemy out of their hiding places, encircle, & attack them on every side. God has promised to give us victory! What is yo Ai? Weeping & complaining won’t change yo situation. Ambush them & utterly destroy their power. How? By praying more! Confessing d Word more! An increasing Faith! Fasting more often! Praise & Worship! Obedience! Sharing d Gospel more! Forgiving more! Attending services more! Giving to d Lord! Pressing forward & not giving up! There is nothing greater than having God committed to always be present to fight against our enemy; He has never lost a battle! Yo victory is guaranteed! “The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.” Deuteronomy 28:7. Prayer: Lord Jesus, d battles rage. I thank U for Yo promises to fight for me. I rest in Yo presence, Amen.

Hav a Testimony Tuesday!

U r a victor! Shalom.

Midnight prayer, The secret of Success in Life.

“So Joshua arose, and all the people of war, to go up against Ai; and Joshua chose thirty thousand mighty men of valor and sent them away by night.” Joshua 8:3. The Oasis of Hope Devotional for 2day! To have power over d forces of darkness, we must be alert & active at d night hours.
The night hours are d time of intense darkness & demonic activities. If we can rise up to pray, meditate on His Word, & worship God at night, we‘ll be much closer to our breakthroughs. In other words, d night time is a period of total victory.

Beloved, there are some mountains that cannot be removed unless we pray at night; there are problems that would prove insurmountable unless u forms d habit of praying at night. God did almost everything important at midnight. The secrets of Jesus impactful ministry was d all night prayer. There are levels u can never attain in d spirit without mastering d art of praying in d midnight. Are u not tired of asking others to pray for u without getting result when u can wake up & be a prayer warrior too? Are u not tired of all d nightly nightmares & attacks? There are lots of activities taken place in d spiritual realm, and believers also must be active participants. Praying for one hour at night has great effects on d operations of d dark kingdom, much more all night prayer. U must wake up to render evil arrows, enchantments, curses & incantations against u arrows, ineffective. Reduce yo sleep! Make up yo mind that nothing will interfere with yo nightly appointment with God. Repent of yo sins! Receive d Baptism of d Holy Spirit! Be determined. Give d devil a technical knockout by praying at night. Yo victory is guaranteed! “And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.” Luke 6:12. Prayer: I shall excel in d midnight battle, in Jesus name. Hav a Triumphant Tuesday!

U r unstoppable!

Shalom.

Your Turning Point

“.. . . Therefore the name of that place has been called the Valley of Achor to this day.” Joshua 7:26. The Oasis of Hope Devotional for 2day! God is not limited by yo circumstances; He’s only limited by yo unbelief.

The Valley of Achor means “trouble, or disaster,” It is not a place anyone would want to be - a hot, dry, desert location. It was a place of shame, death, loneliness & emptiness. Years later, however, it’s given a new meaning-a door of hope-Hosea 2:15.

Beloved, have u ever had a time in yo life where u felt surrounded by struggle, pain, & loneliness? Get ready for yo turnaround! Joseph went from d pit to d palace, from d prison to a prince. There is a time appointed for yo release. It is now! No matter what u are facing, rest assured, when u can’t, God can. Until God stepped in, Hannah was still barren, & Lazarus was still in d grave. Where once there was defeat God gives victory, where once there was disaster He gives new hope. He is ready to bring u out of yo dead situation & put life back where things were dead! It doesn't matter how long; d power of God is still able to turn it around. He’s done it before & God can do it with u. The news of yo victory will go round. Those who have abandoned u will struggle to associate with u. Those who refuse to identify with u bcos of yo trials will broadcast yo breakthrough. Have faith in God! Keep praying! Keep sowing into d things of God! Be determined! Praise Him like Paul & Silas! Believe His Word -Words have power. Speak d word! Prophesy d word! Declare d Word! Yo situation awaits instruction, If u fail to give order, it will remain like that. If u can speak, yo situation will be sorted. It’s not over for u! Have u met Jesus? “For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” Psalm 30:5. Prayer: Lord Jesus, arise by Yo Power, & turns my situations around, Amen.

Hav a Fruitful Friday!

U r blessed!

Hell is Real

“Then all Israel stoned him, and after they had stoned the rest, they BURNED them.” Joshua 7:25b. The Oasis of Hope Devotional for 2day! Death by fire is a horrible, awful, & painful way to die!
Some have said, "How can a just, loving God send anyone to hell?" God gave man a choice to do right or wrong, go to heaven or hell. The choice is ours. God gets no pleasure from people being lost eternally & He sends no one to hell.

Beloved, God has given us all d freedom of choice, and what we choose in this life will determined our destiny. The Lake of fire is d destiny of those whose names are not written in d book of life. Hell was designed for Satan & his demons, not people. God loves u so much that Jesus died so u wouldn’t spend eternity in hell. Therefore, if u choose to go to Hell instead of coming to Jesus, u choose to go to a place where u are not even wanted. Sin brought sudden death to Achan & his family, and finally, they were burned. Friend, if u missed Heaven u will cry! Hell is a place full of memory, & remorse; it is a place of wailing, suffering, torment & darkness. A place of unquenchable fire, thirst & unanswered prayer! The tragedy is that many will spend all of their eternity in Hell! Whatever it is in life that would prevent u from being saved is not worth going to Hell over! Whether it is a relationship, a pet sin, family, friends, pride or whatever it is must be cut out of yo life so that u can get to God! When we repent of our sins and come to Jesus, He forgives us & cancels our reservation in hell, and makes a new reservation for us in heaven. Come to Jesus today! Are u saved, be motivated to reach out to & pray for lost people. Heaven is as wonderful as hell is so terrible. Where will u spend yo Eternity? "If anyone's name was not found within the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire." Rev. 20:15. Prayer: Lord Jesus, give me d grace to finish my journey here on earth & to make Heaven, Amen.

Hav a Triumphant Thursday!

Jesus loves u!

Shalom.

'The sins of the Fathers'

“Then all Israel stoned him, and after they had stoned the rest, they burned THEM.” Joshua 7:25b. The Oasis of Hope Devotional for 2day! Every new generation has d capacity in Christ to break d cycle of generational sin.

There is something called d law of d generational harvest-it says that u will reap what u sow. It also says that others will also reap what u sow, especially yo children & grandchildren, yo family & immediate descendants.

Beloved, u can pass down either a curse or a blessing, to yo children, grand-children, and great-grand-children. Abraham passed down d sin of lying to Isaac, who passed it on to his deceiving son Jacob. Jonathan was a righteous child who died as a result of Saul’s sin. Achan sinned & his family paid with their lives. It is recorded that d disasters that has befallen d Kennedy family was a result of d sins of one of d grandfathers. Sin always has consequences. Sinful behavioral patterns can be passed on through d generations such as: divorce, addictions, sexual sins, emotional disorders, depression, bitterness, negativity, prejudice, poverty, failure, health problems & worry. Yet, there is still hope. Take yo sin, guilt & yo failures to Jesus. Thru Christ we can overcome d effects of generational sin. Confess yo sins to God, & also d sins of yo fathers. Pray and set d example of righteousness for yo children d best way u can. Teach them from God’s word, u will be laying a solid foundation for d rest of their lives. U can’t go back & change d past, but u can ask God to help u make right choices in d present. “Do not hold against us the sins of the fathers; may your mercy come quickly to meet us, for we are in desperate need.” Psalm 79:8. Prayer: Thank u Jesus for forgiven my sins! Deliver me today from d consequences of generational sins, Amen. 

Hav a Refreshing

WHAT IS IN THE NAME

“Joshua said, “Why have you brought this TROUBLE on us? The Lord will bring trouble on you today.” Joshua 7:25a. The Oasis of Hope Devotional for 2day! Who a person is can be defined by their name.

A study of Bible names often reveals much about d personality of those people- Abraham means “Father of a multitude.” Jacob means “Trickster.” Jabez means “Sorrow.” Achan means “One who Trouble.” The name u bear will shape yo destiny

Beloved, whether or not we realize it, our names carry a great deal of meaning. It can determine yo success or failures in life. There is a link between yo name & yo problem. Is there any relationship between yo behavior & yo name? Have they turned out to reflect d life u’ve lived? Yo name can release or divert d blessings of God. Parents often gave children names that described d parent’s hopes & future expectations. However, there is a spirit behind every name. Names influence d lives & destinies of people. An evil name would bring an evil manifestation into one’s life. When an evil name is in place: there will be constant night feeding & dream harassment; regular disappointments; unending trials; one’s progress will be slowed down; denial of rightful benefit; unexplainable hatred & rejection; lack of direction & focus in life; and, inability to fulfill one’s destiny. There are many who are in d valley of frustration today as a result of their names. Do u know d meaning of yo names? Does yo name honor God or idol? God had to changed some people names to enable them fulfill their destinies-Abraham, Sarah, Jacob, e.t.c. Today, desire a new life! Know d meaning of yo names. Call unto Jesus today, He is able to deliver u from d evil names. “He said, "Your name will no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have fought with God and with men, and have prevailed." Gen. 32:28. Prayer: Lord Jesus, reveal to me how my names is affecting my life & deliver me, Amen.


Hav a Testimony Tuesday!

U r d Best!

Shalom.
