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.

LISTEN TO GODS' VOICE TODAY

"Today if you hear God’s voice speaking to you, do not harden your hearts against Him, as the people of Israel did when they rebelled against Him in the desert.” (Hebrew 3:15). God speaks to his creation at all times. As we read the bible we see instances where God spoke to unbelievers, example; Saul,  Nebuchadnezzar etc. Jesus spoke to the wind and it obeyed him, He also spoke to the fig tree. How much more you his child. It is an error for you to say you can’t hear his voice.  Jesus speaking in..…John 10:27 said; “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.”  As Gods' children, we have the capacity and the ability to hear His voice. But the challenge is; a lot of us do not pay attention and listen to what God is saying. Probably because we are waiting to have the Saul’s encounter of a voice speaking from heaven (Act 9:4). God speaks to us in our spirit with a small still voice. Prophet Elijah had an encounter with this voice… II Kings 19:12 -13 “...and after

START WITH PRAYER.

 O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days. Psalm 90:14 Starting the year in prayerlessness is a very dangerous move to make. From the scripture above, we see David placing a demand on God in the place of prayer for early satisfaction. He is asking God God to satisfy him early with mercy. Why was he specific by adding "early" and not just saying oh Lord satisfy us with your mercy? The mistake most of us make in our prayer, is failure to be specific and detailed in our prayer. The demand for earl satisfaction will result to early accomplishment and achievements. Now is the time for you to learn this wisdom from David and tell the Lord that you desire to be satisfied early in 2021 with his mercy, favour, goodness, presence, wisdom, success and vision. Halleluyah! Lateness and delay is when the achievement of January is accomplished in December. May you not be found sleeping while your mate are succeeding, maximising their year and prosperin

THE POWER OF PATIENCE.

But as for me, I watch in hope for the LORD, I wait for God my saviour; my God will hear me (Micah 7:7). One of the characteristics of a matured believer is in his or her ability to patiently wait on God for his intervention even in the midst of fierce oppositions and challenges. From the anchor scripture, we see the prophet making this his personal choice- “But as for me”. He was intentional about it. You see, in life, you have to understand that following the crowd always can make you miss out on God’s plan for your life. There are decisions you have to make of which other people may never support or understand, because you desire to please God with your life and not man. Others may choose to cut corners, seek for short cuts which will ultimately cut them short. Some cheat their way through due to impatience, pressure to fit in, and low self-esteem. As believers, our response to life ought to be different. Prophet Micah said “I wait in hope for the LORD” do you know that, ho
