TOPIC: THE ROOT CURSE
MEMORISE:
And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith the LORD, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or barren land. - (2 Kings 2:21)
BIBLE READING: 2 KINGS 5:20-27 (KJV)
20 But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master hath spared Naaman this Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought: but, as the LORD liveth, I will run after him, and take somewhat of him.
21 So Gehazi followed after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he lighted down from the chariot to meet him, and said, Is all well?
22 And he said, All is well. My master hath sent me, saying, Behold, even now there be come to me from mount Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets: give them, I pray thee, a talent of silver, and two changes of garments.
23 And Naaman said, Be content, take two talents. And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and laid them upon two of his servants; and they bare them before him.
24 And when he came to the tower, he took them from their hand, and bestowed them in the house: and he let the men go, and they departed.
25 But he went in, and stood before his master. And Elisha said unto him, Whence comest thou, Gehazi? And he said, Thy servant went no whither.
26 And he said unto him, Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants?
27 The leprosy therefore of Naaman shall cleave unto thee, and unto thy seed for ever. And he went out from his presence a leper as white as snow.
MESSAGE:
In Mark 11:12-20, Jesus cursed a fig tree for not having fruit on it, and it dried up from its roots. I believe the detail that the tree dried up from its roots was added to let us know that curses attack roots; they always go root-deep.
Immediately after Jesus cursed the fig tree, the disciples could have looked behind them as they left the scene and discovered that its leaves were still green. I imagine that one of them could have said to himself, "Jesus missed this one because the leaves on the tree are still as green as ever." Little did they know that the curse was already taking effect from the tree's roots.
Beloved, be careful of curses, especially divine curses. If a man curses another man, it can be reversed by another man with a higher spiritual authority. However, when it is a divine curse, no one can reverse it, except God. There are several people who have been cursed but still look 'green'. For example, a fellow might break away from his or her local church in a malicious manner and still look fine on the outside; however, the fellow's roots might have been affected, and with time, the consequences will begin to manifest. If you remove a branch from a tree, it dies instantly; however, it is not immediately apparent. It is only after a while that it will start turning yellow before it eventually turns black. When it is yellow, people might think it is prosperous, only to discover later that it was actually dying.
In today's Bible reading, when Elisha pronounced a curse on Gehazi, he said that Naaman's leprosy would cleave to him and his seed forever. The curse went straight to the roots of his lineage such that any fellow who came from that lineage would carry the curse. In (2 Kings 2:19-22), the men of Jericho came to Elisha to tell him that their city looked beautiful, but they had severe problems. When they brought him the new cruse of salt he requested, he went straight to the source of their river so he could tackle the city's curse from its roots.
Child of God, are you experiencing the aftermath of a curse that you or someone in your lineage brought into the family? I speak to the roots of that curse now, and I decree that every inherited curse will cease to function in your life and family from this moment, in Jesus' name.
PRAYER POINT:
Lord, please remove any curse that might be operating in my family from its roots, in Jesus' name.

HYMNAL: 27 WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS
1 What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer!
2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer!
Can we find a friend so faithful
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer!
3 Are we weak and heavy laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge--
take it to the Lord in prayer!
Do your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In his arms he'll take and shield you;
you will find a solace there.

TOPIC: REMEMBER YOUR CREATOR
MEMORISE:
Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them; - (Ecclesiastes 12:1)
BIBLE READING: MARK 11:12-20 (KJV)
12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:
13 And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.
14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
15 And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;
16 And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple.
17 And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.
18 And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, because all the people was astonished at his doctrine.
19 And when even was come, he went out of the city.
20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
MESSAGE:
Today's Bible reading tells the story of how Jesus saw a fig tree from afar and approached it because He was hungry. On getting to the tree, He discovered that it had no fruit on it even though it had many leaves, and He cursed it. One lesson we can learn from this story is that God expects every living thing to be productive; He created everything for His pleasure (Revelation 4:11) and wants them to reveal His glory.
One detail that used to baffle me any time I read the passage in today's Bible reading is that the time for figs had not yet come (Mark 11:13). I used to think to myself, "If it wasn't the season for figs, why did Jesus expect the fig tree to have fruit?" I later realised that, where the issue of time is concerned, God's time is always the right time. For instance, if God wakes you up at 3am or 4am, it is wrong to tell Him that it is too early for you to wake up. No matter how early the Sovereign God wakes you up, it means your day has begun - His time is always the right time.
In today's memory verse, God instructs young people to remember Him while they are still in their youth. This means that the best time to serve God is when a person is young. It is best for people to surrender their hearts and lives to God in the morning of their years because those who seek God early will always find Him (Proverbs 8:17). If you are a young person and you are reading this, Jesus wants your heart now; He wants you to bear fruits for His kingdom now that you're still young. He wants you to be fervent in spirit, serving Him (Romans 12:11). Don't squander your youth on the altar of sin or waste it by pursuing unimportant things; seek God early. Do not be like the fig tree, which had nothing to offer Jesus when He came seeking fruit from it. God has commanded us to be fruitful and multiply (Genesis 1:28); however, to be fruitful, you must cultivate a vibrant relationship with Him because you can do nothing without Him (John 15:4).
Beloved, I plead with you to remember your Creator in the days of your youth. Even if you are no longer a youth, dedicate the rest of your life to serving Him, and He will beautify your life with His glory.
KEY POINT:
Remember your Creator now.

TOPIC: LET HIM HAVE IT ALL
MEMORISE:
O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps. - (Jeremiah 10:23)
BIBLE READING: JOHN 6:5-13 (KJV)
5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him,
9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
MESSAGE:
Today's Bible reading tells us about a boy who gave his lunch to Jesus. He must have been planning to eat it, but when he learnt that Jesus had a need for it, he surrendered it willingly. At the end of the day, 12 baskets of food remained. I once asked my children about their thoughts concerning what might have happened to the 12 baskets, and one of them said that since there were 12 apostles, each apostle must have taken a basket. I believe, however, that the 12 baskets were carried to the boy's house. The Bible tells us that everything returns to its source - this is why all waters return to the sea (Ecclesiastes 1:7). It is the one who sows who will reap. Because the boy chose to trust God with what he had, God revealed Himself as the More-Than-Sufficient One. When you commit your ways to the Lord and surrender all you have to Him, He will reveal Himself to you in ways that are beyond your wildest imagination.
In (1 Kings 17:8-16), the widow of Zarephath had only one meal left for her and her son to eat. She surrendered it to Elijah, and she never lacked throughout the famine. Likewise, the Bible says that God performed special miracles through Apostle Paul (Acts 19:11). He surrendered everything God gave him back to the Lord, and God honoured his absolute surrender by making him one of the greatest apostles (2 Corinthians 12:11-12). I want to encourage you not to struggle with God over your life. Surrender to Him completely, and I assure you that your testimony will be that it is a good thing to trust in the Lord.
Surrendering to God begins with giving your heart to Him completely. God will either be Lord of all, or He will not be Lord at all. He always comes to take charge and take over, and those who are willing to let Him be God experience His full support, protection, and help. They also enjoy unprecedented and wholesome victories in their lives.
Beloved, let God have it all. Today's memory verse tells us that it is not in man to direct his steps. Since you are limited, why not hand everything over to the Unlimited God who can bring out the best from your life? He is faithful and able to keep everything that is committed into His care.
PRAYER POINT:
Father, I give you the full liberty to take charge of my life and affairs, in Jesus' name.

TOPIC: ATTAINING GOOD SUCCESS II
MEMORISE:
This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. - (Joshua 1:8)
BIBLE READING: JOSHUA 1:1-9 (KJV)
1 Now after the death of Moses the servant of the LORD it came to pass, that the LORD spake unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, saying,
2 Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.
3 Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.
4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast.
5:There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
6 Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.
7 Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.
8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
MESSAGE:
When Zerubbabel wanted to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem, Zechariah told him that it wouldn't be by power or might but by the Spirit of the Lord (Zechariah 4:6). It is possible to succeed and achieve results that could never have been produced by your efforts - I am a living proof of that reality. As I write this, the RCCG is in over 190 countries across the world, and I have yet to visit some of them. This is a good example of results beyond efforts. God can give you victories that have nothing to do with how powerful, wise, strong, or influential you are they will only be by His unfailing mercies and love.
In Psalm 37:5, David advises you to commit your way to the Lord and trust in Him to bring your plans to pass. This is important because if you don't surrender all to the Lord and He gives you success, you might likely forget Him and begin to feel as if you have become successful because of your abilities. Some people become successful and lose their sleep and peace because they have not surrendered to the Lord. When I became the General Overseer of the RCCG, we had only 39 branches in Nigeria. Now, the church has thousands of branches across the world, and my blood pressure remains normal because I know that God is behind it all. Every night, I go to bed without worrying about anything. I am at peace because I have committed and surrendered everything to God.
God wants all His children to enjoy good success. In today's memory verse, He showed Joshua an important key to attaining such success: meditating on His word. To meditate is to think deeply about something. God told Joshua to keep the book of the law in his heart and on his lips at all times because He knows that whatever is in his heart and on his lips will eventually become his reality. God knows that if He can get you to believe that He wants you to be successful, and you profess this in faith, nothing will stop you from succeeding. If you are reading this and have experienced many struggles and failures, I decree that things will change for the better from today, in Jesus' name.
Beloved, meditate on the word of God day and night and confess the things He has said concerning you; that is the key to experiencing and enjoying good success.
ACTION POINT:
Set time apart daily to meditate on God's promises concerning your success.

For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality: - (1 Thessalonians 4:3)
BIBLE READING: 1 THESSALONIANS 4:3-4 (KJV)
3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
MESSAGE:
As a child of God, your body is not meant for sin but for holiness; it is to be set apart for God's purposes. It is the temple of the Holy Spirit and a sacred gift from God that should be treated with respect and used solely for His glory.
In (1 Corinthians 6:19), Apostle Paul cautioned the Corinthians, saying: "Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?" This tells us that our bodies belong to God, and His Spirit dwells in us. Therefore, we must keep it pure and set apart for God.
My dear child, if you are presently engaging in fornication, drug abuse, gluttony, or any other vices, I urge you to repent today and stop misusing your body. Hard drugs destroy the internal organs, gluttony can lead to health issues, and fornication leads to both physical and spiritual anomalies. It is important to note that God will judge anyone who misuses his or her body in any form.
KEY POINT:
Your body belongs to God. Do not misuse it.

TOPIC: FORGET AND PRESS FORWARD
MEMORISE:
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. - (Philippians 3:13-14)
BIBLE READING: GENESIS 50:15-21 (KJV)
15 And when Joseph's brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, Joseph will peradventure hate us, and will certainly requite us all the evil which we did unto him.
20 And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy father did command before he died, saying,
21 So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the trespass of thy brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee evil: and now, we pray thee, forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spake unto him.
22 And his brethren also went and fell down before his face; and they said, Behold, we be thy servants.
And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God?
23 But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.
24 Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.
MESSAGE:
It is often easy to forget all the wonderful things God has done for us, which is why many verses in the Bible remind us to 'forget not.' In Deuteronomy 8:11, Moses warned the Israelites not to forget the Lord. Psalm 103:2 also tells us not to forget all His benefits. Likewise, Psalm 78:7 warns us not to forget His works. However, as much as God doesn't want us to forget the things He has done for us, He also instructs us not to hold on to the past.
In today's memory verses, Paul told the Philippians that he often forgot the things that had happened in his past so that he could forge ahead, and he admonished them to have the same mindset in verse 15. Some people are caught up in their past achievements; they keep talking about how God used them and how they experienced great miracles in 'those days'. However, there is nothing in their lives now that shows that they know the Lord. They are filled with anger, bitterness, jealousy, and every work of the flesh. Christians who keep glorying in their past exploits for God's kingdom without thirsting to do more cannot experience a fresh anointing from Him. God's mercies are new every morning (Lamentations 3:23); therefore, any believer who hangs on to the past alone will keep missing out on His increasing goodness and mercy. I turn 84 today, and by God's grace, I am still doing exploits in His kingdom because I've learnt not to hang on to the past, and I rely on His mercies that are new every morning.
Beloved, forgetting the things behind you will help you press on to glorious things ahead of you. Forgetting past negative experiences and even victories will help you reach for the new blessings that God has ordained for you. If Joseph had not let go of the hurt from his brothers' evil deeds, he would have been imprisoned by hate. As we see in today's Bible reading, he told them that even though their actions were meant to destroy him, God turned everything around for good.
Do you need to let go of anything from your past so you can move on to greater heights? Ask God to reveal them to you and strengthen you to let go of them. Ask Him to help you press into the glorious things He has ordained for you. As you do that, I pray that your path will continue to shine brighter, in Jesus' name.
PRAYER POINT:
Today is my birthday. Please pray that God will continue to take me to greater heights.

MEMORISE:
Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite. - (Psalm 147:5)
BIBLE READING: 1 CHRONICLES 29:11-12 (KJV)
11 Thine, O LORD, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all.
12 Both riches and honour come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all.
MESSAGE:
God is all-powerful; His power is not seen only in His mighty works but also in how He sometimes mercifully provides the help we need before we even realise we need help.
Years ago, when Redemption City was still more than 95 percent covered with trees and bushes, I went for a walk one night as I usually do. Then, I loved to walk on the footpaths of the bushes to pray so that nobody would disturb me. That night, I was going about praying and enjoying myself because I was alone with God when He suddenly told me to stop. I stopped, and when I looked at the ground, I realised that something unusual was right across my path. The object looked like a log of wood, and I thought that some people had come into the bush, cut some trees down, and didn't carry all the logs with them. However, it suddenly looked as if the log of wood was moving. When I looked more closely, I realised it was a huge python. Immediately the python saw that I had seen it, it raised its head to attack me. Of course, now that I had already seen it, I moved back a bit, and as I turned to look towards my right, I saw a big rock. The rock had already been positioned there by God, and I used it to kill the python. God mercifully provided that big rock in that position even before I went through that path that night. I pray that the Almighty God will supply all the help you need before you even realise you need it, in Jesus' name.
Before Samson was attacked by over 1,000 Philistines in Judges 15:14-15, God prepared the jawbone of an ass and placed it in a place where his hand could easily reach it. In Numbers 20:1-11, before the Israelites got to the desert, He had provided the rock from which they would get water. Beloved, God has already provided the solution to every problem you can ever encounter. He is too merciful to let you get to a stage where there will be no solution to the challenges you face. If you are currently burdened by a problem, you don't have to worry; turn to Him and ask Him to open your eyes to see the solution He has already provided. I pray that you will emerge victorious over all obstacles, in Jesus' name.
PRAYER POINT:
Father, please open my eyes to see the solutions You have provided to every challenge that comes my way, in Jesus' name.
