Are You on The Victory Side?

ARE YOU ON THE VICTORY SIDE?
"For whatsoever is born of God overcome the world: and this is the victory that overcome the world even our faith. Who is He that overcome the world, but He that believe that Jesus is the son of God." 1 John 5: 4-5"

There are two sides of life. First, victory side,second, losing side. There is no midway. The victory side is the side of the victorious. The side of those who have fought battles of life and won. Call this the winning side.

On the contrary, those who have fought the battles of life and lost or refuse to fight the battles of life and remain unfulfilled are at the losing side. Beloved, might be you don't know that life is full of battles and so there are battles to fight. Not only fighting them, you must win and not lose, otherwise the purpose of God for your life will not be fulfilled.

Might be you do not know also that you are not born to this world without a purpose. The purpose of God for your life is your divine destiny. Read what the Bible says, "Thine eyes did not see my substance yet been unperfect and in thy book all members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them"

Beloved, for this to come to reality, you have to fight some batters and you must win them. The battle include putting resistance to enemies of your destiny who would not want what was written concerning  you  to manifests as the sons of Jacob did to stop their brother, Joseph. ( Genesis 37: 19-20 ).

The household witchcraft are there, so also  are strongman of your Father's house,the prince of the air, principalities, powers, spiritual wickedness in high places, the unfriendly friends, the spirit spouse and several other hunter of destiny.
The Bible says, "who is he that overcome the world... 1 John 5:5. In other words, who is he that is on the victory side. Who is he that fought the battles of destiny and won? Who is he that tread upon the serpent and scorpions of this world and was not hurt? Who is he that fought disease and was made whole? Who is he that overcame the failures and poverty of his family line and stood shoulder higher than all members of his  family?

Only those who are  on the winning/victory side will stay with Jesus in the kingdom of  heaven while those who lost the battles because they did not have Christ, will stay with Satan in the kingdom of Hell which burns with sulfur and fire.
May God help us.

Prayer Times : How To Enjoy The Favour Of God.

               PRAYER TIMES : HOW TO ENJOY THE FAVOR OF GOD.
"In the presence of those who are asking for my God Oh  God arise, show me favor and manifest yourself, in the name of Jesus".

Favor is the grace of God expressed in pleasurable terms. A man that is out of favour with God and will always be under pressure in life. Are you presently under pressure of any form in any area of your life? Then, I think you are out of favour and your life needs a favour refill.

  When you are favored by God, He will give you power  to overcome all the powers of the wicked one. He will give you the power to prevail over sickness, accident, failure, frustration and every works of Satan. Scriptures according to Saint Luke 10:19, "Behold I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the powers of the enemy and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
When a man finds grace in the sight of God, He shows him mercy and then favors him(Hebrew 4:16). Favor links you to the blessing of God. God's favour is the doorway to God's blessing. It was after Angel Gabriel declared Mary Favored that he proclaimed her blessed(Luke 1:28). It is when you are favored that you can be blessed and then become a blessing.If there is any touch you need today, it is the touch of favour. I pray with you that you will favour in the sight of god today in the name of Jesus.

 Mary the mother of Jesus was a virgin when the favour of God located her. You never can tell what the next move of God would be for you. But something is certain, "God will show you mercy today in the name of Jesus".  

                                                 PRAYERS.
1. God will favor you today like the morning sun.

2. He will heal your wounds quickly.

3. He will never leave you nor forsake you.

A Prayer OF Confession.

                                A PRAYER OF CONFESSION.

Forgive us, Lord . . . for the things we have done that make us feel uncomfortable in Your presence. All the front that we polish so carefully for men to see does not deceive You. For you know every thought that has left its shadow on our memory. You have marked every motive that curdled something sweet within us.

We acknowledge--with bitterness and true repentance--that cross and selfish thoughts have entered our minds; we acknowledge that we have permitted our minds to wander through unclean and forbidden ways; we have toyed with that which we knew was not for us; we have desired that which we should not have.

We acknowledge that often we have deceived ourselves where our plain duty lay.

We confess before You that our ears are often deaf to the whisper of Thy call, our eyes often blind to the signs of your guidance,

Make us willing to be changed, even though it requires surgery of the soul and the therapy of discipline.

Make our hearts warm and soft, that we may receive now the blessing of Your forgiveness, the benediction of Your "Depart in peace . . and sin no more." Amen.

And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, "Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain." So God granted him what he requested. I Chronicles 4:10 NKJV

4 Ways To Pray When You Find Things Hard.

4 WAYS TO PRAY WHEN YOU FIND THINGS HARD.

You'd be hard-pressed to find a Christian who can't recall a time when they found it difficult to pray. Perhaps that's you, now. You're desperate to meet with the Lord but are finding it difficult to focus, or simply don't know how to set aside the time.

While cannoning seven new saints on Sunday, Pope Francis said: "The saints are men and women who enter fully into the mystery of prayer. Men and women who struggle with prayer, letting the Holy Spirit pray and struggle in them.

"They struggle to the very end, with all their strength, and they triumph, but not by their own efforts: the Lord triumphs in them and with them. The seven witnesses who were canonized today also fought the good fight of faith and love by their prayers."

He acknowledged the difficulty prayer can pose. "Jesus tells us in the Gospel: 'Pray always, without ever losing heart,'" he said.

"This is the Christian way of life: remaining steadfast in prayer, in order to remain steadfast in faith and testimony

Take distractions away

If you're tired of trying to persevere with prayer, here are a few simple tips that might help.

It's an obvious one, but it's almost impossible to focus on God when your phone's buzzing and social media notifications are popping up every few minutes. Turn off your phone. Log out of Facebook. Find a quiet spot if you can, and close the door. Stilling yourself before God is much easier when you're not trying to guess who's text you.

Be disciplined

Pope Francis alluded to this in his homily yesterday; part of the challenge of prayer is persevering in it, even when it's hard. Research lead by a team at University College London found a few years ago that it takes 66 days to form a habit – far longer than the widely-held figure of 21 days. That's a long time – more than two months – but if you're disciplined in taking the time to regularly meet with God, it will become easier.

Try new things

Sitting down in a quiet space and meditating on the word of God isn't how everybody will connect best with Him. If that's not for you, why not try something different? Go for a walk and just talk to God about whatever comes to mind, or try one of these alternative ways to pray. See what works for you.

Think beyond yourself

Prayer can become stale when all we do is offer God a long list of things we'd like changed in our own life. We risk prayer time becoming more like a wish-list than a time of petitioning our Maker on behalf of others. 'The Bible in one hand and the newspaper in the other' is a good principle for prayer if you don't know where to begin – there are so many places in the world that need our prayers, inform yourself and let your heart be broken for the lost and the poor.
