DEALING WITH NEAR-SUCCESS SYNDROME

When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria; for they commit falsehood and the thief cometh in, and the troop of robbers spoileth without. (Hosea7:1)

Just when God was about to heal Israel the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered and the wickedness of Samaria was also discovered. The big question is, why were these things not discovered after the healing, why must it be discovered at the set time of their breakthrough. This has been the experience of many today. There are people under the attack of near- success syndrome. The spirit that attacks progress and breakthroughs. It is a spirit that has stopped many from from eating the fruit of their labour. The children of Israel were so close to their healing when all of a sudden the unexpected happened. These are time sensitive attacks.

This was what David meant in (Psalm59:3);"see how they lie in wait for me! Fierce men conspire against me for no offense or sin of mine, Lord"). They lie in wait for that moment you are about to get the reward and harvest of your toil, then they attack. I remember the story of a young man while in the medical school was doing very well, graduated as the best medical student. Just within 24 hours after graduation from medical school, was inflicted with madness and all plans to enable him regain his sanity proved abortive and he died in the process. Many weddings have been cancelled due to this attack, many great destinies have been truncated due to this spirit. Today I decree that your freedom has come in Jesus name Amen. You must possess your possessions; you will finish that which you have started in Jesus name Amen.

FURTHER STUDY: Nahum 1:9, Psalm 7:9

PRAYER:
1. Every power fighting my next level is silenced now in Jesus name.
2. I take authority against every power assigned to stop me at the point of breakthrough in Jesus name.
I reign over every resisting force against my progress and advancement in Jesus name Amen.

PRAYER OF SALVATION
I believe you have been blessed by this devotional. I invite you to make Jesus Christ the Lord of your life by praying now; Father, I come to you in the name of Jesus Christ, I believe you died for me and resurrected for my justification. Today, I confess with my mouth that I accept Jesus into my heart as my Lord and Savior, I receive forgiveness of all my sins. I'm born again. Thank you Lord for the salvation of my soul Amen.

THE POWER OF FASTING AND PRAYER 2 DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE!

 "But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting". You may not know what the future holds and that is the more reason why you should hold unto the one who holds the future. God knows what lies ahead of us this year and as we connect with him through prayer and fasting he empowers us to overcome, prevail and win over every battle, challenges and attacks of the enemy that may come our way. From the Scripture above tells us about the response of Jesus to his disciples when they were faced with an impossible situation that has to do with a man whose son was sick. The disciples tried all they could but their efforts to heal the young man was not fruitful. When Jesus showed up, the seemingly impossible situation became possible. Jesus was able to heal the man's son. So the disciples were amazed and they asked Jesus why they couldn't do it.  I declare: May Jesus shows up in your marriage, shows up in your finances, family in the name of Jesus. Where your strength...

KEEP YOUR TONGUE AWAY FROM EVIL

As the Scripture says, “If you want to enjoy life and wish to see good times, you must keep your tongue from speaking evil and stop telling lies.  -1 Peter 3:10 (GNT) A lot of people desire not only to have a successful life, but also to enjoy life, but the reality is this; only few adhere to the principles that would eventually lead to having an enjoyable and productive life. From our scriptural text, we understand that one of the keys that guarantee access to an enjoyable life is to keep our tongue from speaking evil and to stay away from lies. Your life moves in the direction of your words. If you don’t like where your life is headed, then it is time to examine what has been coming out of your mouth. Any man that cannot have control over his tongue, cannot have control over his life as well. Proverbs 6:2 NIV says, “you have been trapped by what you said, ensnared by the words of your mouth". A lot of people have been trapped by the words they said. The struggle and ...

FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT

Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses (I Timothy 6:12). In the journey of life, battles are not optional but mandatory. Even at birth, a child must be made to cry. At that point, he fights to overcome the force that wants to keep his lungs closed; so as to  live. Henceforth, various battles begin.  When one becomes born again, the dynamics of the fight changes. He will still fight but this time around it is a good fight. The bible calls it the “Good Fight of Faith”. The fight is a good fight; the weaponry is also a unique one, FAITH. So a believer fights the good fight of faith, this fight is  termed a good fight because the end is determined from the beginning. Victory is guaranteed at the end. It is a fight to be won. Halleluyah! It is like watching a replayed boxing match whose winner you already know. The same way, God is not bothered about what fight ...
