KEEP YOUR SECRET.

                                 
Saul replied, “He assured us that the donkeys had been found”. But he did not tell his uncle what Samuel had said about the kingship.(I Samuel 10:16)

We live in a generation where many do not understand the 'Power of Secret'. Saul told his uncle about the donkeys that were found, but never disclosed to him the encounter he had with Prophet Samuel and the anointing for kingship. 

You see, the world today is full of evil, wickedness, envy and
jealousy. If you don’t know how to control your mouth, you may not live long. Samson told Delilah his secret and that led to his 
downfall and premature death. Joseph told his brothers the secret conversation and dream God showed him instead of 
keeping quiet, which led to a near death experience, imprisonment and all kinds of battles. 

My question today is; who 
have you been sharing your secret plans, dreams and prophesy with? That may be the reason for the unending battles and 
stagnation you are experiencing. Change that bad attitude today.

Learn from Mary, the Bible says in Luke 2:19… “But Mary kept
all these things in her heart and thought about them often”. 
The problem with you is that you can't keep secret. Hear this, a man's secret is where his strength and power lies. There are things you need to keep for the right time.
She did not go about spreading the news but rather kept it in her heart. The more you keep things to yourself, the less envy you attract and the fewer battles you fight. Please be wise!

What can make a man to speak out a secret?
1. Over-excitement: Don't make decision when over-excited, beecause you may not know when you will let the cat out of the bag. Joseph couldn't control his excitement of his dreams, but decided to share with his brothers, not knowing that his beginning of hatred will be from them.

2. Frustration: Don't make decision when you are frustrated. it was frustration that made Samson to disclosed his secret to Delilah. 

1I Kings 20:13-21   Hezekiah welcomed the Babylonian envoys and showed them everything in his treasure houses; the silver, the gold, the spices, and the aromatic oils. He also took them to see his armory and showed them all his other treasures, everything! There was nothing in his palace or kingdom that Hezekiah did not show them........
What! The problem to your downfall is that you trust people easily. Is it wrong to share the testimony of the Lord's doing in your life? Emphatically, No! But there are some people around you who don't deserve to hear your testimony. Then, you keep it and be praising God in your heart. 

Genesis 37:5  One night Joseph had a dream and promptly reported the details to his brothers, causing them to hate him even more. 
Some dreams are not for third party involvement, they are for your hearing alone.  

PRAYER: 
1. Father any way I may have used my mouth to attract battles into my life, deliver me today in Jesus name. 
2. Anyone around my life who is an enemy acting like a friend be exposed in Jesus name.

THE WIFE WHO WAS NOT CONDEMNED.

 A certain man married a beautiful lady. Somebody used to visit his wife everyday to give her advice. After some time, the adviser would also have sex with her. One day, the man discovered his wife having sex with the adviser. When I heard about this, I was expecting that the husband would condemn his wife and drive her away but he did not. He rather turned to her and said, "I love you and I want you to be my wife. It does not matter what has happened. You are the only wife I want." This was an amazing show of love to a wife he should have condemned. From where I come from, by now the woman would have been sacked from her home, and viral on social media, etc. This is how Jesus' love is. He sees everything but He does not condemned us!  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. (John 3:17) halleluyah! He so much loved you, sent his only Son as substitute for your sins, that whoever believes in him will not ...

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 ...
