“We saw him with our very own eyes. We gazed upon him and heard him speak. Our hands actually touched him, the one who was from the beginning, the Living Expression of God.”
1 John 1:1 TPT
We are living in a season that requires the manifestation of the sons and daughters of God.
There is so much confusion going on in the world that only true believers who know God need to speak up and allay the fears of unbelieving people around us.
“For God’s angel visited me last night, the angel of my God, the God I passionately serve. He came and stood in front of me and said, ‘Don’t be afraid, Paul. …And because of God’s favor on you, he has given you the lives of everyone who is sailing with you.'” So men, keep up your courage! I know that God will protect you, just as he told me he would.”
Acts 27:23-25 TPT
God says HE is the “I AM WHO I AM.” that is relevant to every situation (Exodus 3:14)
Let’s boldly proclaim that HE is the Life-Giver that can only stop this pandemic.
“So we proclaim to you what we have seen and heard about this Life-Giver so that we may share and enjoy this life together. For truly, our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus, the Anointed One.”
1 John 1:3 TPT
God’s protection is all around you and will continue to shield you from the evil around you.
“God will protect you from harm, no matter how often trouble may strike.”
Job 5:19 CEV
Please speak life and health that God has put into your mouth into the current troublesome tides.
Archbishop Benson Idahosa, in his lifetime, once said that
“God does not need to come down from heaven to manifest His power.”
He had mandated him as His ambassador to do so.
And he won the battle for God.
Rise today as the Kingdom of God representative .
“I have commissioned them to represent me just as you commissioned me to represent you.”
John 17:18 TPT
Open your mouth and speak as someone God has commissioned to bring Peace to the world.

Arise Peter Slay and Eat.
“And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat.”
(Acts 11:7) KJV
God’s instructions to Peter were clear, Arise, Peter, Slay, and Eat. Many Believers today act as though they can only see the word eat.
Though it’s an instruction in a vision that God was communicating to Peter, the principles of how God works with his people are enumerated here.
Peter heard: Arise.
You need to arise and be well-positioned to poses your possession.
God is providing the lamb for the sacrifice, but you need to appear and walk to the mountain to take hold of it.
“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.”
(Romans 13: 11) KJV
God told Ruth to position herself strategically before her full restoration could become a reality
He calls you by name.
God called Peter individually, and when HE sends you on an assignment, He is calling you by name.
God speaks to you through your inner man and doesn’t just copy what others are doing.
He knows what you need.
Ask Him for the blueprint of what He wants you to do.
God instructed Peter to slay.
You have to do the work required to get your victory.
Don’t just say Jesus Christ said: “it is finished.”
” You don’t have to do any work.”?
Jesus said I work as my Father works.
Jesus answered his critics by saying, “Every day, my Father is at work, and I will be too!”
John 5:17 (TPT).
When Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, HE told them to lose him from the bundles of clothes they already wrapped him in at the burial.
There is always the work that you have to do.
However, the joy is that the work you have to do is not in your power, wisdom, or strength. He provides all of them for you.
“Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.” (Psalm 23:5)
As you obey Him step by step, your food before you, and you can then eat.
He satisfies your mouth with good things and renews your strength daily to live victoriously in Him.
Be encouraged today that as you hear and diligently obey victory is yours in Jesus’s Name.
Arise, Peter; slay, and eat.

He saw and believed.
“So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb. Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. … Finally, the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went inside. He saw and believed. (They still did not understand from Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.) Then the disciples went back to where they were staying.” John 20:3-9 (NIV)
Another reminder from the resurrection morning celebrations.
Both Peter and John ran to the tomb.
Even though John got there first, he did not initially enter.
Peter entered first but did not understand what had happened.
John came in later, he saw and believed.
What made Peter puzzled, and John believed?
Our perception and thought process?
Do you immediately grasp what is going on?
Do you have to reason it out like the other disciples?
Thank God, the Owner of the Church, our Lord, and Savior, worked with the two.
Again unlike both of them that day, they did not have the Holy Spirit dwelling in them at that time.
You and I are living under such a tremendous grace in that the Holy Spirit is our helper.
Great if on some issues you understand and belive like John did.
However, don’t take off on AWOL (absent from one’s post but without intent to desert.) like Peter did.
You can call upon God, and HE will explain what is puzzling to you.
Much more, HE will strengthen you to fulfill your God-given destiny.
Sometimes in life on different issues, you find both John and Peter in you.
You can have family, friends, and team members on different levels of belief.
Work with them
With the overcoming Love and Power from our Risen Savior:
ALL WILL BE WELL.

Honor me in front of the leaders of the army and the people of Israel.
“ Saul said, “I did sin, but please honor me in front of the leaders of the army and the people of Israel. Come back with me, so I can worship the LORD your God.” Samuel followed Saul back, and Saul worshiped the LORD.” 1 Samuel 15:30-31 (CEV)
Whose honor do you seek? Man or God???
Saul did sin, but even after realizing it, he was still obsessed about how he looked before men, not so much of his Creator.
What are you living for?
People can see you as a victorious man when, in fact, you are defeated?
Saul started out having victories in battles ( 1 Samuel 14:47).
What did Saul do about Amalek?
God told him to destroy them ALL because they stood against the Jews right after their exodus from Egypt.
God said that they would perish.
The Jews had a victory against the Amalek.
But was it indeed a victory for Saul?
Is there any possibility for the people to see you as a victorious man when, in fact, you are defeated?
The members of Saul’s congregation saw him as victorious.
Are you obeying the word of God completely?.
Are you paying attention to only the parts of the Bible that suit you?.
The people considered Saul as a victorious man, but before God?
If you miss it like Peter did initially and you completely turn around, you can make it.
Judas Iscariot did not fully repent he returned the blood money but did not return his heart to the Savior he had betrayed.
How are your public and private life?
Let the Resurrection power truly restore you back fully to God.

You are busy analyzing the Scriptures.
“You are busy analyzing the Scriptures, frantically poring over them in hopes of gaining eternal life. Everything you read points to me, yet you still refuse to come to me so I can give you the life you’re looking for—eternal life!” John 5:39-40TPT
Religion always like to analyze the scriptures leaving out the critical subject of the Savior
Jesus Christ’s life and purpose is to redeem man through the path of the Cross.
In a few days, the whole world will celebrate Easter, which is about His Death and Resurrection.
Many would love to have Christ without the Cross.
The Cross involves being able to say as Jesus did :
“… for the ruler of this dark world is coming. But he has no power over me, for he has nothing to use against me. I am doing exactly what the Father destined for me to accomplish so that the world will discover how much I love my Father. Now come with me.”John 14:30-31 TPT
How is your personal relationship with God?
Can you say like Jesus did that the enemy has nothing to use against you?
Are you doing exactly what the Father has instructed you to do?
”from Issachar, men who understood the times and knew what Israel should do.” 1 Chronicles 12:32 NIV
Yes, we are in the end times. Antichrist is at work, but bigger and better, the Holy Spirit is also working and always ahead.
Are you ready for the Rapture?
Vaccine or No vaccine can you live in Divine Health as Jesus provided?
Are you able to say like Paul that God can supply all your needs regardless of the economic system? (Philippians 4:19)
It’s not time to panic; that’s never God’s way.
Stop engaging in endless debate on social media, analyzing back and forth.
”…Jesus said, “I was born a King, and I have come into this world to prove what truth really is. And everyone who loves the truth will receive my words.” John 18:37 TPT
Remember the Truth and the Power in the Death and Resurrection of the Savior
