Let Us Pray Fellowship

*LET US PRAY* (*CONGRATULATIONS*) *SEASON OF FAVOUR* *Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, And having come in, the angel said to her, "Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!*". *Lk 1:26-28*. As we return all the glory to the one and only God that does wonders for us without counting the cost i wholeheartedly wish to congratulate you as you have made it to not just the end of the month but the end of the first half of the year. Dear child of God I pray for you and with you that as the Angel of the Lord visited Mary with a message of goodnews may this prayer reaching you now be the message of good news from the Lord for you and your family in the name of Jesus. May you carry the kind of favour that you have never imagined in your life and may this favour birth more favours in your life by the power in the name of Jesus. As you are alive to end this first half in testimony i pray f...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT26* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. Having explored the benefits of hearing, doing and meditating on the word of God and continuing in the word i strongly believe that we have actually learnt much from our fathers in faith and today we will be concluding on that and then move on. Amen!!! One more thing that i want us to look at today is what St Paul told us the other day. *So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified*. *Acts 20:23*. Here St Paul is telling you and i that the word of God is able to give us an inheritance. What is an inheritance? An inheritance is something bequeathed to one to enjoy by his parents. Remember that St Paul told us that as many as are led by the spirit of God are sons of God. So if you grow in ...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT25* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. We have seen the opinions of many of our fathers in faith concerning why we should know and apply the word of God in all that we do and it is crystal clear that our lives will be better if we hear the word of God, apply it, meditate on it and ultimately continue in it. Today we want to see other benefits that are inherent in the word of God. King David told us that if we hear and meditate on the word of God that we will be like a tree planted by the river side and that we shall bear fruits in and out of season so our productivity lies in the amount of the word that we have. This is in line with what Jesus said that "cut off from me you can do nothing" and He went ahead to say that if we remain in Him that we will bear fruits and you and i know that Jesus is the word. *I am the vine, you are t...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT24* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. We have been told by king David that we should delight in the word of God and meditate on it because it only then that we will get the blessing that accompanies hearing the word and so today we have decided to ask St James about what he said concerning the word. *But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does*. *James 1:22-25*. St James here is confirming what king David said and we have already said before that the blessing...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT23* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. Yesterday, king David told us to pride ourselves in obeying the law of the Lord and not to obey the law of the Lord as though we are being forced or coarsed to do so and he went ahead to tell us what we should expect or why we should pride ourselves in obeying the law of the Lord. *But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper*. *Ps 1:2-3*. King David told us that apart from obeying the law of the Lord and meditating on the law of the Lord that we should take delight in doing so because it is in the intention and delight in doing so that lies the blessings and he went ahead to mention the blessings...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT22* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. The other day we talked to about who to take counsel from and we proceeded to see that there are also the kind of people that we should not be in their midst not to talk of taking counsel from them because taking counsel from them is tantamount to a curse. Today we want to look at how we can sustain ourselves in the right counsel or how we can continue in the right counsel because after king David has told us not to follow the counsel of the ungodly he went ahead to give us a solution as to how to sustain good counsel. *But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper*. *Ps 1:2-3*. Here king David is ...

*LET US PRAY* *(PRAYER FOR THE WEEK)*. *BREAKING THE YOKE OF IMPOSSIBILITIES*. *Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren*.  *Lk 1:36*.  What a mighty God we serve. Our keeper that does not sleep nor slumbers has done it again by giving us yet another wonderful week to enjoy and so we say may his name be glorified both now and forever in Jesus name. Beloved i pray for you and with you that in this sixth month of the year as we are about to end the first half of the year that whatever that has been concluded about you or anything that they have concluded that can't or won't happen in your life or that cannot happen in your life may God use it to give you end of the first half gift by the power in the name of Jesus. The word of God says "has also conceived a son in her old age;" which means that it was a season of miracles for the family and so i pray and prophecy that hence...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT21* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. We have learnt so much from king David and St Paul concerning allowing the spirit of God to lead us and today we want to look at one of the advises that king David gave us that is against allowing the spirit of God to lead us. *Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful*. *Ps 1:1*. We have said that whoever you give attention gives you direction. When you give the wicked your attention king David said that it amounts to a curse but that when you give the godly your attention it will amount to a blessing. The reason being that you will have nothing good to learn from them and apart from that they will make you to learn and be like them and sometimes worse than them because sin is a progression. Who you follow de...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT21* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. We learnt yesterday that the spirit of God leading us also makes us the children of God apart from so many other things that king David told us and you will agree with me that the principal reason why God gave us his spirit is to make us His very own children hence He gave us His personal spirit.. St Paul went ahead to make us to know that apart from making us the children of God it also makes our spirit to be in agreement with the spirit of God(source). In other words at Paul is saying that we should not allow anything to disconnect our spirit from the spirit of God. Do you still remember that our spirit is from God Himself? So St Paul is telling us that it is the intention of God that our spirit stays connected to the spirit of God(source) so that it can achieve purpose according to the mind of God. ...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT20* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. Do you still remember how we got here? Having looked at "God in us" through the breathe that He gave us St Paul told us that as many as are led by the spirit of God which means that there so many that will refuse to be led by the spirit of God so for those that will allow themselves to be led by the spirit of God we asked king David about them and he gave us many advantages that will accompany those that will allow the spirit of God to lead them. Apart from God leading you through His spirit(breathe) we were told that there are many blessings attached to this leading and as a matter of fact anybody that chooses not to be led by the spirit of God has a lot to loose. When St Paul told about the many that will be led by the spirit of God he made one very important point which i want you and i to...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT19* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. King David has been of tremendous help in what we have been discussing and i strongly believe that he has helped us so much to know why we should allow that spirit of God that is in us to lead us. Amen!!! *Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful*. *Ps 1:1*. He started by teaching us the importance of allowing the good Lord to lead us and today we want to look at the advice that king David started giving us the other day. He started by telling us about counsel. He thought us the kind of counsel that we should avoid and the one we should work for. What is counsel? To give counsel is to give advice or deliberate opinion to another on how to govern his or her conduct, To be given a counsel is to advise one to do...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT19* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. We have been looking at what it means to be led by the spirit of God and king David has been our guide and today we will continue to consult him to know more about what it means to be led by the spirit of God. Amen!!! *Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful*. *Ps 1:1*. One of the good things about being led by the spirit of God is that it attracts the blessings of God. Don't you think that being led by the spirit of God is to be fortunate? How else could you explain it that God choose of all things to lead you while you follow.. Apart from attracting the blessings of God being led by the spirit of God is in itself a blessing hence St Paul will ask us one question. *What then shall we say to these thing...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT19* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. We have seen quiet a lot on why we should allow the Spirit of God to lead us and King David has been very helpful as our guide and today we want to continue from where we stopped to the glory of God. Amen!!! We have seen what it means for the goodness of God to follow us now what does it mean for the mercy of God to follow us? Many of us whenever we hear of the mercy of God we tend to look at the forgiving side of it only. Mercy is not all about forgiveness of sin but much more than that  Everything we are and everything that we have are all products of God's own mercy. Whenever we talk of the mercy of God we are talking about God qualifying us for what we are not qualified for. For instance God giving us his own spirit when he could have commanded air from anywhere. For every breathe that we take ...

*LET US PRAY* *(PRAYER FOR THE WEEK)*. *GOODNESS AND MERCY WILL FOLLOW YOU*. *Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever*.  *Ps 23:6*. Once again congratulations for making it to another wonderful week, we continue to return all the glory to God for all that He has been doing for us and our families. May His name be praised both now and forever in Jesus name. Amen. Dear child of God, i pray for you and with you that in this week and beyond that the only thing that will continue to follow you whether you like or not or whether you know it or not is nothing but God's constant goodness and mercy by the power in the name of Jesus. May the goodness of God following you continue to attract good things into your life. May it bring about the right connection that you need to be connected to favour and blessings by the power in the name of Jesus. May his mercy qualify you for what you are not qualified for, may it ope...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT20* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. We are still looking at what king David told us that will follows any man or woman that allows the spirit of God to lead him or her and i believe that if you have not allowed the spirit of God to lead you before now that by now that you must be making up your mind on surrendering to the leading of spirit of God. *Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever*. *Ps 23:6*. We have looked at surely yesterday and today i want us to explore what it means for God's not man's goodness to follow an individual. When we talk of goodness here we are looking at God's benevolence. We are saying that God is ready to do good to you. Now imagine that somebody like Dangote is your uncle and one day he visited your house and decides to he...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT18* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. King David has been giving us a guide on why we should allow the spirit of God to lead us and he has given us quite a number of reasons. He told us some things yesterday that we want to continue to look at today. *Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever*. *Ps 23:6*. King David like we said yesterday started by saying "surely" that word surely is a statement of fact, it means that he has checked and discover that it is a must and that nothing can stop it. They are things that makes a man beat his chest over certain things. David had had instances where he recognized that it was the goodness and mercy of God that saw him through. In essence what King David is saying is that God's goodness and mercy is unfailing, it...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT17* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. It is said that the secret of men's greatness is in their stories and i believe that we have seen quite a lot on the secret of king David's greatness and we are not still done because we still have alot to learn from him. Amen!!! *Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever*. *Ps 23:6*. Have not heard that who you follow determines what follows you? If you follow the right person right things will begin to happen to you and if you follow wrong people wrong thing will begin to happen to you now imagine following Jesus? King David was able to recount his experience as God was leading him and he discovered that it was only goodness and mercy that was following him for me i can't imagine what else that would have followed ...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT16* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. How wonderful it is for God to choose a time like this to reveal all these to us especially this time that we all seem to have lost our bearing due to economic hardship and mismanagement of our collective resources. Today we will continue to see more why we should allow the spirit of God to led us irrespective of what we are going through so that we can sail through.. *You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over*. *Ps 23:5*. King David told us that when we allow the Lord to lead us that the Lord Himself will be the one that will prepare a table for us and when he prepares that table for us consequence upon his leading that even the enemy cannot stop us and that the presence of our enemies becomes inconsequential. In essence what King David ...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT15* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. Progressively we are knowing better some of the secrets of our great men and how they did their own exploit and king David has been guiding us for some time now. *Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me*. *Ps 23:4*. I don't want to shout about this one just come closer let me whisper something into your ears "when you allow the Lord to lead you, you even if things are not working well for you, you will still come out of successfully because the Lord knows the way out. King David was bold to even call a whole death shadow(inconsequential, non existent, powerless and not deserving attention) can you imagine king David's boldness all because he was sure that God ws with him. He noticed tha...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT14* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. We have come to see and understand why king David has to beg and seek the leading of God by all means and we will continue to learn from it until we exhaust all of them if we can before we will move to other areas of reflection and so today we will continue from where we stopped. Amen!!! *He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake*. *Ps 23:3*. According to king David our souls(the breathe of God) can be renewed that is what he meant by restore, to restore in this respect also means to be redeemed from all forms of defilement and to restore also means to be satisfied. So God according to king David is not just interested in restoring our souls but He is also interested in making sure that He leads us in the path of righteousness so that we will not have our so...

*LET US PRAY* *(PRAYER FOR THE WEEK)*. *YOU WILL NOT LACK*. *The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters*.  *Ps 23:1-2*. What a mighty God we serve. Our keeper that does not sleep nor slumbers has done it again by giving us yet another wonderful week to enjoy and so we glorify his name forever in Jesus name. Beloved i pray for you and with you that in this week the mighty hands of divine providence will locate you so heavily to destroy the spirit and the manifestations of lack in your life and family so that the only thing that you will lack henceforth is lack in Jesus name. Henceforth you will not lack fresh and green pasture where your soul, mind and body will be fed constantly and renewed and refreshed and may peace surround you all round in Jesus name. May you never lack food and water and may your food and water not be far from your reach in Jesus name. The things that you are permitted to lack hencefor...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT15* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. I believe that king David has a lot to tell us about God's leading hence he sought for it that much and with all that he had and we really have a lot to learn from him. Yesterday we learnt that when the Lord leads you he will lead you to the best place. So we will continue from there today. *He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters*. *Ps 22:2*. Can you now see more why David gave it all that he has? Let us break it down to see the advantages in allowing the Lord to take the lead. He talked about lying down in green pasture. Lying down speaks of rest while green pasture speaks of fresh food at your own reach with ease. In a nutshell what he meant is that when the Lord is your leader you don't have need to over work yourself. You don't need to go far to l...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT14* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. Yesterday we discovered that there was something that king David knew that made him to beg for the leading of the spirit of God even when others don't want to talk about it not to talk of allowing themselves to be led by the spirit of God. Today we will continue to expose the secret that king David knew that made him to do that because God has revealed some to us for our consumption.  Let us check this out *The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want*. *Ps 23:1*. One of the secrets of king David which made him to beg for the leading of the spirit of God is that he knew that when God is the one leading you he can only led to a place where you will never lack in life. One of the major things that plague man in life is the called lack, we lack so many things, we lack peace, we lack satisfaction, we lack...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT14* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. We are still looking at what St Paul told us that we must allow the spirit(breathe) of God in us to lead us and we still want to ask king David of his take on this matter as it matters to you and i. David was so desirous to be led by the Lord that he had to beg for it and sought for it with all that he had, with promises and commitment to remain being led by God. *Show me Your ways, O Lord; Teach me Your paths. Lead me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; On You I wait all the day*. *Ps 25:4-5*. What did David see that made him to so beg for the leading of God to that extent? From his prayer one would see that there is something that David knew about divine leading that we must know. Amen!!! First and foremost he knew that God is his God. Remember that we talked about knowin...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT13* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. Yesterday in our quest to know more on how to preserve the breathe(life) that God gave us we were privileged to hear from St Paul that we must allow ourselves to be led by the spirit(breathe) of God that is in us *For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father*.". *Rom 8:14-15*. Today we will continue to look at what it takes to allow oneself to be led by the spirit of God. The starting point of being led by the spirit of God is to know and have fellowship with the spirit of God. If you don't know the spirit of God there is every tendency that you may mistake him for evil spirit. Knowing the spirit of God is key in this regard. You can...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT12* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. We have actually been looking at what we do to preserve the spirit of God that He(God) breathed into us after forming us from the dust of the earth and we have asked quite a number of our heros in faith and they have helped us tremendously and today still we are still going to ask St Paul to teach us more. *For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father*.". *Rom 8:14-15*. *ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE LED BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD* . Bro Paul started by telling us that as many as are led which means even if all of us are supposed to be led but that there are so many that will still choose not to be led by the spirit of God so the making of the children...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT13* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. To God alone be all the glory for the inspirations so far. Remember that we said that we need to feed the spirit of God within us as what we don't feed will definitely die and so today St Paul tells us how to feed the spirit(breathe) of God in us. *Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things*. *Phil 4:8*. The spirit that God has given to us is that small voice in us that tell us to restrain from certain things especially evil things. It is that part in us that wants us to always do good at all times. It is that man in us that always wants us to please God at all times. Tod...

*LET US PRAY* *(PRAYER FOR THE WEEK)*. *THE HAND OF GOD*. *And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house with the elders of Judah sitting before me, that the hand of the Lord God fell upon me there*. *Ez 8:1*. Once and again we continue to thank our good God that does wonderful things for us without counting our worthiness especially the greatest miracle of all time which is the miracle of sleeping and waking everyday and so may His name be highly exalted both now and forever in Jesus name Amen. Beloved, in this first week of the last month of the first half of the year i pray for you and with you that the hand of God will be upon you to lift you out of every ugly condition or situation that you find yourself right now in the name of Jesus. May this hand of God take you to places of hunour and exaltation, may it take you to where you are supposed to be and may it guide you to places of greener pasture in the name of Jesu...

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS IN YOU PT11* *And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being*.  *Gen 2:7*. We are still discussing the ways of sustaining the life(breathe) that God gave to us if not for any other thing just as a way of showing appreciation to this wonderful God for this excellent gift to you and i. *BE READY TO GROW*. In spirituality there is no static position. It is either you are growing or you are shrinking. Refusing to grow is accepting to shrink and for you to grow you must as a matter of necessity feed your inner man. What one feeds gorws and what you don't feed will definitely die. For us to grow we must feed our spirit(the breathe of God) with the right food like the word of God, meditation, prayer, thanksgiving, laughter, happiness, anxiety free life etc. Growth is a natural phenomenon that requires our cooperation, if you and i refuse to grow as expected of us by our maker th...

*LET US PRAY* (*CONGRATULATIONS YOU MADE IT*) *FROM STORY RO GLORY* *Then Belshazzar gave the command, and they clothed Daniel with purple and put a chain of gold around his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom*.  *Dan 5:29*. Congratulations dearly beloved and welcome to the last month of the first half the year, I join you and your family in thanking God for been so good to you and your family. To Him alone be all the glory. In this sixth month of the year i join my faith with yours to pray for you that in this month God will set the systems and all that is needed to favour you up to bring about your lifting from zero to hero, from nobody to somebody and from story to glory in the name of Jesus. The number six is the number of man and as such i pray for you that whatever you need to be your best that God has created you to be will begin to look for you so as to find expression in your life by the power in the name of Jesus. It d...
