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.

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
