  • TEXT: Ephesians 2:10

    FOCUS: PREPARED UNTO GOOD WORK

    If God has called us to a good work, we need a good preparation for that.
    Previously, we established the truth of our calling. He has prepared a path for us to walk in even before we came into this world.

    Today, we look at answers to this question,
    1. What is a calling

    A calling is not necessarily a call to the pulpit or to leadership. It is the recognition of God’s plan for your life and walking in it daily, with the sole aim of glorifying Him (2 Timothy 1:9; Ephesians 2:10; Matthew 5:16).

    We can define it as the act of recognising God's plans for you and walking with them, with the sole aim of glorifying him.
    2 Timothy 1:9 (KJV)
    “Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace…”

    We must understand that the caller is GOD. The PURPOSE is of him. The call of God is not based on what you can do or what you are doing, but based on what God wants you to do.

    The call of God is in levels:
    We have the generalised calling and the specific calling

    In the general calling, this is a call everyone must answer first before being sent to different units. That is a call to fellowship or relationship. Look at this;
    1 Corinthians 1:9 (KJV)
    “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.”
    The first call we receive is the call to fellowship.

    Next is our specific calling. This is where God sends us to the world as teachers, bankers e.t.c To all sectors of life to represent him. It does not matter what you are doing. The question is, is it good work, or are you representing God?
    Is God seen in your school, house, farm, or kiosk? Is God represented there? If yes, you can say to be fulfilling the call of God upon your life.

    Ephesians 4:1 (KJV)
    “…that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called.”

  • SATAN'S STRATEGIES AGAINST CHRISTIANS UNVEILED IN THE SECOND HEAVEN

    by Moses Lushiku 6

    Let me give a brief statement about my call and vocation from the Lord. It happened one day as I
    was laying down on the courtyard of my house when suddenly a force took over me. As a result, my
    spirit went out of my body and I was taken to the sky. When I got there in the atmosphere I saw the
    Lord Jesus Christ.

    Beloved, when you meet the Lord Jesus Christ you will know that you are standing before God
    Himself. It is automatic when the Lord Jesus Christ set His eyes on you. His anointing will be
    transferred to you and your understanding will be renewed and enlightened instantaneously and you
    will be connected to the supernatural.

    The Lord said to me, "Look at the earth."
    When I looked at planet Earth the Lord said, "When you divide the earth into three portions that are
    the proportion of humanity that will be saved through your message and your ministry."
    The Lord said, "You are an end time servant. I will use your ministry and others to bring about the
    rapture of the church. Your ministry will be prophetic in order to prepare My people for the
    rapture."
    A few weeks later I was convinced by the Spirit of the Lord to spend some time in the church for
    prayer. As a result, I began to spend most of my time in the church in prayer. In fact, I left my house
    in order to sleep in the church for prayer. I spent eight consecutive months in the presence of the
    Lord. This was not a result of an audible voice recommendation but a simple conviction of the Holy
    Spirit.

    I was sleeping in the church. Later I was joined by members of my church. They were touched by
    the fact that I have left behind my house in order to pray and sleep in the church for many months.

    Then one day in the morning after prayer something happened. I was talking to a member of my
    church when suddenly I saw three beings of extreme beauty dressed in white garments of luminous
    glow. These tall and robust angels were not touching the ground. These were supernatural entities.

    The first angel introduced himself to me and said, "I'm the Archangel Michael. I work in the field of
    spiritual warfare. It is written that the angel of the Lord encamps around them that fear Him (Ps
    34:7). I am the one who encamped around the children of God. I will reveal to you the secrets about
    the kingdom of Lucifer in spiritual warfare. I will tell you the secrets about the devil because I
    know him. I was the leader of the regiment that cast him out of heaven."
    Rev 12:7-9 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the
    dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in
    heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which
    deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

    The second angel introduced himself to me as Gabriel. He said to me, "I am the one who appeared
    to your sister Mary in order to announce her the good news about the birth of the Savior. The Bible
    says, "God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth a city in Galilee. The angel went to a virgin promised
    in marriage to a descendant of David named Joseph. The Virgin's name was Mary. When the angel
    entered her home he greeted her and said, 'You are favored by the Lord. The Lord is with you.' She
    was startled by what the angel said and tried to figure out what this greeting meant. The angel told
    her, "Don't be afraid Mary you have found favor with God. You will become pregnant and give birth
    to a son and name Him Jesus. He will be a great man and will be called the Son of the Most High.

    The Lord God will give Him the throne of His ancestor David. Your Son will be king of Jacob's
    people forever and His kingdom will never end." (Luke 1:26-33)
    Beloved, when I heard the Archangel Gabriel calling Mary the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ "My
    sister" I felt a special feeling, a feeling of pride and prestige. Then Gabriel said to me, "I am the one
    who gives believers messages in dreams and visions. When they are in deep sleep I will reveal a lot
    of things to them."
    Actually, the Archangel Gabriel revealed to me 100 secrets contained in Jesus' parables. Then the
    Archangel Gabriel said, "We come to your churches and to your houses and we walk by your side
    yet you people are so busy with everyday preoccupation which has reduced your spiritual
    sensibility. Therefore you cannot sense our presence around you and you cannot see us although we
    are everyday around you. But the fact that many of the children of God are seeing us these days it is
    an indication that the event of the return of the Son of God is at hand. I will reveal to you secrets
    about life beyond the grave and the end of time."
    The third angel seems different from Michael and Gabriel. He introduced himself as Marvelous. He
    said, "I am the angel that appeared to the mother of Samson. The Bible says, "A man of Zorah
    named Manoah from the clan of the Danites had a wife who was childless unable to give birth. The
    angel of the Lord appeared to her and said, 'You are barren and childless but you are going to
    become pregnant and give birth to a son. Now see to it that you drink no wine or other fermented
    drink and that you do not eat anything unclean. You will become pregnant and have a son whose
    head is never to be touched by a razor because the boy is to be a Nazarite dedicated to God from the
    womb. He will take the lead in delivering Israel from the hands of the Philistines." (Judges 13:2-5)
    The angel Marvelous said, "I work in the field of salvation." And at the end times, this angel with
    the name of Marvelous was the Lord Jesus Christ Himself.

    After this first encounter, the next four days were days of angelic visitation as the whole church was
    able to hear the voice of the angels of the Lord.

    On the fifth day of angelic visitations, something happened. It was on the 10th of February 2007 at
    5:00 p.m. The Archangel Michael who promised to reveal to me secrets about the devil and spiritual
    warfare came and he held my right hand.

    Immediately my spirit left my body. Michael held my right hand. We took a speedy flight. We
    began to ascend in the speed of light and we found ourselves in the atmosphere and over there in
    space the Archangel asked me, "Do you know where we are going?" I was about to respond when
    he said, "Lucifer has summoned a meeting in the 2nd heaven which will start in a few minutes. The
    kingdom of heaven has chosen you as their representative to take part in that meeting and reveal the
    contents of this gathering to the world."
    A few minutes later we arrived in the second heaven. Then we entered the auditorium which was a
    huge oval hall. This place was between heaven and the earth. The chief angel Michael said to me,
    "Fear not and don't panic. You just stand by my side. You must observe and listen to everything.

    You have been commissioned to tell the world everything you will see and hear."
    Actually, as I was attending this gathering in the 2nd heaven the Lord Jesus Christ had entered my
    body that was left on the earth and He took complete control of my senses. He was addressing the
    people of God in the church while my spirit was attending this summit in the atmosphere.

    Back in the auditorium in the second heaven, I noticed that the hall was full to capacity. Demons of
    all kinds and people from all nations were waiting for the prince of this world, the devil. Once we
    got in the meeting hall the chief angel Michael said to me, "Very soon you will see our enemy
    which is your enemy." We were hovering over this auditorium when suddenly I heard a thunderous
    explosion. This detonation was the arrival of Lucifer. The devil did not arrive like everybody else
    but in a thunderous explosion.

    SATAN WITH DOG HEAD

    I saw Satan for the first time on the 10 of February 2007. Immediately after landing in the oval
    auditorium the devil transformed himself. I mean his head turned to that of a dog. Then he said to
    the participants, "Do not be surprised by my emblem of a dog head. I took the appearance of the
    dog because I want to demonstrate to you that I am God. The reason that I summoned you today is
    that I heard the other One claiming that He is God and that He wants to save humanity."
    The devil and demons of Hell don't quote the name of Jesus Christ for fear of adverse effects. The
    devil refers to Jesus Christ as "The Other One." Then with a hand sign, the devil removed the
    sealing of the oval Hall and he caused the assistants to rise beyond the ceiling of the auditorium.

    I saw the assistants suspended in space and observing planet Earth. I have to admit that I managed
    to recognize some faces of the assistants. Then I saw the devil pointing a particular section of the
    earth. He actually zoomed to a section of the earth. As a result, we saw people getting on with their
    lives in that section of the earth but strangely all the people on that section of the earth had dog
    heads just like Lucifer himself.

    Afterward, the devil zoomed to another geographic section of the earth and we saw the human
    population of that part of the earth with dog heads. Then the devil zoomed to still another section of
    planet Earth and we saw people in different churches. We saw pastors, we saw evangelists, church
    singers, deacons in the church with dog heads. Churches were full of believers, preachers, and
    singers with dog heads.

    Afterward, the devil got the assistants back in the auditorium. Then he said to the participants, "You
    saw with your own eyes 80% of the world population with dog heads which is my emblem. You
    saw with your own eyes many believers preachers singers with my emblem of a dog head. They
    have my image and my likeness. They look like me yet the other One who claimed to be God the
    savior of humanity has only 20% of the world population. The question every one of you is to ask
    and to answer is this, 'Who is God - Him or me?' He has only 20% of the world population. Who is
    powerful - Him or me? It is written in their law that the dog has returned to what he has vomited.

    When the devil said this I remember the passage in 2 Peter 2:21-22, For it had been better for them
    not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy
    commandment delivered unto them. But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The
    dog has turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.

    Then I saw the devil still with his dog head. He vomited on his pulpit and then he consumed his
    vomit. Then he said to the assistants, "It is thanks to my power that 80% of the world population are
    sinners and the majority of the believers have backslidden. Any Christian that has backslidden has
    adopted my emblem of the dog head. He has my image."
    At that moment I saw the assistants that were made up of demons and humans falling down on their
    knees worshipping the devil and declaring him God. The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 4:4, In whom
    the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious
    gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

    The assistants were worshipping the devil and saying, "You are God because 80 percent of the
    world population resembled you. They have your image and your emblem. You are more powerful
    than the other One who has only twenty percent of the world population."
    Dear believers every time we are living in sin we are adopting the emblem of the devil which is a
    dog head. The Bible says whosoever practices sin is of the devil.

    He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose, the
    Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. (1 Jn 3:8)
    I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Blessed are they that do
    His commandments (“Blessed are they that wash their robes.” - other translations), that they may
    have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs,
    and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh
    a lie. (Rev 22:13-15)
    As the worship of Lucifer was going on, the Archangel Michael and I stood in a diagonal position to
    the pulpit of the devil and then the devil started the meeting which was to last four months. In the
    firmament, he began to unveil his 80 strategies against humanity in the church. His words were
    automatically printed on a book called "Techniques and Tactics." That book is also called a "Traps
    Trigger" which means how to set a trap for the foolish man and the imprudent.

    The gathering in the firmament lasted four months. Basically every time the devil was unveiling a
    strategy he was adjourning the meeting in order to deploy demons to execute the new strategy in
    various regions of the earth and sometimes demons were traveling in a dimension beyond our
    physical world.

    In the meantime, the meeting would be suspended and the participants would be waiting for their
    return and their report. These demons were traveling to many parts of the earth that were in night or
    day times. They were traveling long distances in a split second or very few minutes and they were
    traveling to several countries, continents, and cities. They were also traveling to the marine
    kingdom, the subterranean kingdom and even to the firmament. And every time these demons were
    traveling to the cosmos I had to follow them in order to see what is happening and how they were
    executing their missions.

    I was ordered continuously by the Archangel Michael to follow them. As a result, I have been to
    many invisible kingdoms of Lucifer and I have accumulated knowledge of the tactics and strategies
    of the enemy. In this message, I will bring you words of Lucifer exactly as he said them so that
    everybody would understand the kingdom of darkness. As it is written, "You will know the truth
    and the truth will set you free." (John 8:32)
    Then the devil started to address the assistants with arrogance. He said to the participants, "I have
    gathered you today because we have an opponent. I heard Him saying that He wants to save
    humanity. That is why I have gathered you today so that we can prevent that from happening. Today
    I will deliver a few strategies in order to cause His followers to become weak and vulnerable so that
    our kingdom will grow on the earth."

    THE LAW OF REPETITION AND RESISTANCE

    Then Lucifer started to enumerate and elaborate on his strategies which were a total of 80 points.

    The devil disclosed the first strategy that he called vaccine or the law of repetition and resistance.

    He said, "Through this strategy, we will impose law in the lives of born-again Christians. Basically,
    the followers of Jesus Christ have a luminous ring of fire above their head and this orbit of fire
    above their head is potentially destructive. It can neutralize us, therefore, I want to underline that
    you should not come close to Christians as long as their ring of fire is shining and burning. We must
    initially put out the fire of that ring of light before engaging them for fear of defeat."
    "Let it be clear if you come to report to me after being wrecked because of the ring of fire I will be
    left with no choice but to destroy you. Do not come close to Christians as long as their fire is
    burning and glowing. You must observe and monitor them before taking any action against them.

    On the other hand, it will be apparent that when these people commit sin, the fiery ring of light will
    go off. Their light would be put out as a result of sin. It is only that way that they will become
    vulnerable. In fact, your mission is to get born-again Christians to commit sin in order to turn off
    the ring of fire and light above their heads."
    Dear believers, there is a ring of fire above the head of each born-again Christian which is self
    generating electric energy of God. The Bible says you are the light of the world (Matt 5:14). A
    Christian is full of divine and electric energy and the electricity charges from God are running all
    over his system. That is why a demon would not come close to a Christian.

    Then the devil said to the assistants, "You must use the method of surveillance and monitoring. I
    order you to watch them and their families in order to mount a surveillance system around born
    again Christians. Do not do anything against them before mounting a system of surveillance and
    monitoring and when they sin you will notice that their light and fire emanating from the luminous
    ring and orbit of fire will go off. The moment a born-again Christian commits sin, you will report to
    me because this is the best time to attack them. On this basis, you have to understand that sin is our
    gospel and sin will be our gospel. Sin is the mechanism by which the luminous flame of the believer
    goes off."
    And I saw the devil instructed his demon to report to him every time a Christian sinned because that
    is of a critical moment to strike him. I come today to beseech you Christians to keep your flame
    luminous. Every born-again Christian has the responsibility of keeping his luminous ring of fire
    turned on. The Bible says that John was a burning and shining lamp and you were willing to rejoice
    for a while in his light (John 5:35). The Satanic world is desperate to get Christian fire and light to
    go off. They can do nothing against believers as long as the ring of fire is burning and shining. It is
    sin that turns off the light of the believer inducing in him a time of vulnerability and fragility.

    After explaining this strategy, I saw the devil summoning eight demons to step forward and he gave
    them syringes. The devil said to them, "Every time a born-again Christian is caught in the act of
    sinning you will inject this vaccine called the law of resistance and repetition in him. When a
    Christian is caught in sin, you will surround him and you will pray. You will summon me in the
    following prayer, "O supreme master Lucifer this is your victim who has listened to your voice and
    he has obeyed your order and instruction. Come and enter his body which is your temple." When
    you say this prayer I will come in a speed of lightning and I will enter the body of this believer and I
    will vaccinate him with the law of resistance and repetition. As a consequence, he will fall
    repeatedly in that sin despite his fasting despite his decision to abandon his sin. The victim will
    always fall in that sin because he is vaccinated with the law of repetition. Even if the believer
    confessed his sin but as he is injected with the law of repetition he will become a slave of that sin.

    He will repeat that sin again and again despite his remorse despite his will his fasting and his
    determination.

    Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. (John 8:34)
    Then the devil said to eight demons standing before him, "After you vaccinated the victim seven of
    you will leave him but you will stay and be stationed around the victim. You will monitor and
    surveil this Christian in case this believer feel the guilt and he is manifesting the will to repent and
    abandon his repetitive sin. I order the demon stationed around him for monitoring him to call the
    other seven demons. Once they joined you the head, you will call me again in this following prayer,
    "O supreme master, this is your victim who wants to rebel from you and escape your bondage." At
    that moment I will come down at the speed of lightning. I will enter his body in order to shake the
    vaccine in him. As a result, the victim will weaken and will have the tendency to return to that sin
    despite his will to escape."
    Then I saw on a pulpit of the devil a mirror. The devil did an incantation prayer. As a result, this
    mirror was multiplied. It was distributed to the assistants. The devil said, "Before attacking a
    Christian you must make sure that he is visible in the mirror."
    Beloved when a demon is coming to fight you, he is coming with information and precision. He is
    well informed about your condition.

    The devil said to the assistants, "That Fellow (Jesus) has branded me the prince of this world. If
    only one of them affectionate himself with the things of this world his profile will be visible in the
    mirror. Some of their attitudes are my nature like anger, animosity, envy, and hate. Those who are in
    these things belong to our kingdom automatically. But remember to check in the mirror before
    doing anything against them. If they appear in the mirror it means that they are in a state of
    weakness and their weakness and sin are my nature."

    ATTACK THE AREAS OF THEIR NEEDS

    The next strategy is called: NEED.

    Lucifer said, "We must watch and analyse the emotions and the feelings of Christians by observing
    their 3 needs: Marriage, Finance, and Ambition."
    He continued, "If you have been fighting one of them, and failing because of their holiness, and
    righteousness, just give up but focus on their marriage. Wait until when they will think about getting
    married. You will work to inject suggestion in their head to get them to make a false choice. It is
    from here that upright people will fall when they make a wrong choice, and we get them to marry
    our representative, by investigating their criteria, and preference."
    Lucifer said, "As we have many enterprises and corporations on earth, you will be arranged so that
    they end up working in our companies and businesses, and they will be surrounded by our agents.

    They will be paid salary with our bewitched money and they will sign contract with us without
    knowing. I asked my demons to give them initiative so that they can expand their business, as a
    result, they will always be focused on the material world."
    The devil always fights the marriage because this is a covenant that makes people one in marriage.

    There is a law called the law of fusion which make 2 people 1. And the devil likes it so that he can
    unite wheat and tares together to create fusion and confusion.

    CONDEMNATION DUE TO WORDS COMING OUT OF OUR MOUTHS

    My dear believers, I am here to bring words from the enemy exactly as I heard it in his meeting in
    the firmament. I heard the devil unveiling one strategy after another. Then he unveiled a strategy
    against the church called condemnation.

    He said, "My agent demons followers and demons observers, you have a very important role to
    play. Your purpose is to observe and listen to what comes out of the mouths of believers. You're
    gonna have to be patient. You must follow them and listen carefully to words coming out of their
    mouths. Actually, these humans claimed to have been created in the image and the likeness of God
    but this is what we will do to them. We have five strategies in order to condemn them on the basis
    of what comes from their mouth."
    The first strategy is during the TIME OF ANGER. The devil said to demons observers and
    followers, "In the time of anger humans don't control their words and they don't control their
    decisions nor their actions. Therefore, this is a critical time in order to capture their words and
    condemn them."
    Beloved, you must understand that when you are angry there are demons assigned by the devil to
    observe you and to capture words from your mouth and decision you make. Therefore when you are
    angry you must learn to hold your tongue. You must not sleep with anger and you must forgive. The
    Bible says death and life are in the power of the tongue and those who love it will eat its fruit.

    (Proverbs 18:21) The devil will use your words to condemn you.

    The second critical moment is the TIME OF CHOICE as the devil said to his demons, "Condemn
    people pronouncing a word of love. When you hear a human saying to his partner, "You are my
    angel," his guardian angel must leave on the basis of his own word. As a result, his partner will take
    the angel place. He is condemned by his own word. When someone says I will only marry this or
    that type of man this is verbal government binding him. He is inviting the spirit of singleness."
    Beloved, people are binding themselves in covenants through words spoken from their mouth. It is
    necessary to cancel negative words. There are words you say that will destroy your life as they are
    captured and brought to pass by demons.

    The third tactic is in TIMES OF HUMAN SUFFERING. The devil said to his demons observers
    and followers, "In a time of suffering and hardship I always hear humans saying, 'Oh I am
    miserable. I am unlucky in my life. Everything I do is not working.'" The devil orders these demons
    to bring to pass those words and sentences spoken by humans during their hard times as many
    cursed and condemned themselves through their own mouths.

    CAUSING BELIEVERS TO BE LAZY AND HEAVY

    Then the devil unveiled an additional strategy that will cause believers to be heavy so that they
    won't be able to pray or read the Bible or attend the church. As a result, they will become an
    ordinary human being. The devil insisted to the participants by saying, "Do not let them pray. Do
    not let them read the scripture. Do not let them go to church. Do not let them tithe."
    Then I saw the devil summoning a demon that looked like Superman. This demon was dressed in
    red and blue just like Superman but the devil called him superhuman. He said to him, "I have
    chosen you to visit Christians at home in the days of their church service. You must be informed
    about their church program five hours before it starts. You're gonna blow on them the bluish smoke.

    As a result, they will become heavy and they will feel like not going to church. They will feel
    uncomfortable." The devil said to him, "Blow your bluish smoke even on their cars. As a result, the
    unexplained breakdown will happen. They will seek justification not to attend church and they will
    have them."
    Lucifer said to the superhuman, "You shall move from one Christian house to another and you shall
    blow your bluish smoke. As a result, there shall be procrastination. As a consequence, they shall be
    incapable of praying even if they set the clock. The same thing with Bible reading. They will have
    the feeling of doing something relaxing instead of going to church."

    PERSON NAMES AS A TOOL TO DESTROY THEM

    Then the devil unveiled another strategy called name. The devil said, "We will use people's names
    as a tool of manipulation in order to destroy them." It is clear that the devil is always seeking ways
    to destroy humanity and he said to the demons, "You will make sure that their lives have become
    their names."
    Beloved, in the Bible, when God called people He changed their names. If you do not have a
    positive name you better change it now. The Bible says in Gen 32:28, Thy name shall be called no
    more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.

    I heard the devil saying the spirit of homonym (words with the same sound but have different
    meanings) will follow the hominin (all humankind).

    Examples of homonym are Bat - an implement used to hit a ball / a nocturnal flying mammal
    Bright - very smart or intelligent / filled with light
    Circular - taking the form of a circle / a store advertisement
    The second issue about a name is that when you name yourself or your child after a family member
    or a friend the nature of that person can be transferred to you or your child through the channel of
    the name and there are these demons, followers, and observers. Their job is that every time your
    name is called they have to transform you into your name. Every time your name is called they will
    get meaning of that name to come to pass and fulfill in your life so that you become your name.

    BEWITCHMENT THRU BEAUTY AND HYGIENE PRODUCTS

    The devil announced another strategy called beauty and hygiene products. I saw the devil order 30
    demons to travel back under the ocean and while these 30 demons were leaving the oval auditorium
    heading underwater, the Archangel Michael order me to follow them. This was our secondary
    journey beneath the ocean and this time around the devil sent these demons to meet underwater
    sirens so that they can design beauty and makeup products. When we were leaving the oval hall the
    devil interrupted the meeting in order to wait for the contingent of 30 demons to bring back beauty
    products.

    When we arrived underwater it's like the water siren and goddess Lamaze who knew already what
    Lucifer wanted. She could also read the mind of these demons. In fact, every time the devil think
    about something he can transfer his thought quickly to his collaborators. The devil possesses a
    network that allows him to inject thought to his followers. When Jesus said to Peter, "Get thee
    behind me, Satan," He was dealing with a thought from the devil that he transferred to Peter's mind.

    That's how the devil work.

    I saw demons of all kinds under the ocean. I saw sirens under the ocean who were very beautiful
    women. They were extremely beautiful as though they were changing faces. I remember their
    names such as Alice and Jacqueline Sol Ange Lily Liliane Juliet. Then I saw their great lady,
    the Queen of the Coast manipulating the sand beneath the water and turning them to beauty
    products.

    I saw powder, lipstick, lotions, soap and many more. There were tons of these beauty products. I
    saw a siren in the name of Juliet printing her face and her name on the wrapping and embossed on
    the soap. This soap called Juliet is still used in our region and our country. When you use that soap
    the power of seduction of Juliet will be at work on your appearance which is artificial beauty.

    Therefore you must pray for these beauty products as the Bible says to pray ceaselessly even in
    little things. And then the devil said, "We will dressed women with a mask of ugliness and old age
    in order to undermine their marriage and cause their husbands to be tired of them."
    The 30 demons transported these beauty products from the underwater to the oval meeting hall in
    the second heaven. As the hall was oval they placed them in the middle of the hall. There were
    lipsticks, soaps, lotions, deodorants, fragrance, and others. Then the devil resumed the meeting and
    I watched as the devil began to curse these beauty products.

    The devil said, "We will spread demonic smells on women or men that are using our deodorants and
    fragrances. The moment their sweat mixed with our deodorants they will smell like some of our
    demons."
    Actually, demons have their smells and I know these smells. Some demons smell a mixture of
    deodorants and sweat. Other smells like acid.

    Then Lucifer said, "Women using our products will have artificial beauty. They will have the beauty
    of my servants the sirens and mermaid printed on their face. It is this way that we will spread
    fornication on the earth. When women use these beauty products they will become irresistible."
    The devil said, "Every time a human will envy these women because of the beauty of my servants
    the sirens and mermaids they will be admiring and worshipping images of the things under the sea
    which are sirens and mermaids."
    As far as the devil is concerned, the pictures of sirens and mermaids on makeup products are equal
    to building an image of things from under the sea. These beautiful faces of sirens and mermaids that
    are printed on the makeup and beauty products are a representation of sirens and mermaids as it is
    written you shall not make for yourself an idol or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the
    earth beneath or in the water under the earth. (Ex 20:4)
    Now the question is, "Should women use beauty products?" Yes, women can but they should also
    have discernment and pray. We should learn to pray for everything. I mean everything we buy in the
    market we need a life of ceaseless prayer (1 Thess 5:17). When I was in the marine Kingdom I saw
    sirens designing beauty products and they were printing their faces on these different lotions and
    beauty products.

    I heard Lucifer saying repeatedly, "Let fight. Let not slow down. Let continue to work in order to
    separate believers from their Master."

    FORGETFULNESS TO DAILY SACRED DUTIES

    Then the devil unveiled a new strategy called forgetfulness. He said to the participants, "We must
    work to get believers to forget their daily sacred duty and obligation. As a result, they will be in
    discord with their Master. Their Master is supposed to be the central and a cornerstone of their lives
    but we must work so that their Lord will no longer be the central focus of their existence. Firstly let
    get them to forget praying, as a result, they will lack spiritual strength."
    Beloved when I heard this from the mouth of Lucifer, I understood that prayer gives believers
    spiritual strength and even the Bible says to pray ceaselessly (1 Thess 5:17). Then Lucifer said, "We
    must give them to forget about going to church by confusing church schedules. As a result, they will
    be without anointing."
    By these words, I understood that attending the church gives believers more anointing as it is
    written in the psalm of David, "Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell
    together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even
    Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments. As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew
    that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life
    for evermore." (Psalms 133:1-3)
    The devil continued and he said, "Let them forget reading the Bible." Then the devil drew the
    attention of the participants by saying, "Be careful of that book. It is magical and powerful. They
    must not read it otherwise they will have the knowledge and they will uncover our actions."
    The devil continued and said, "Let them forget paying tithes so that we can ransack and plunder
    their houses and finances. We will send them hardships and sicknesses and cause them to spend
    beyond their means."
    These words made me understand the importance of tithing. Tithe protects our business and our
    finances and the scriptures says in Malachi 3:10-11, Bring you all the tithes into the storehouse, that
    there may be meat in my house, and prove me now herewith, said the LORD of hosts, if I will not
    open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough
    to receive it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of
    your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, said the LORD of
    hosts.

    Then the devil said again, "Let them forget their law so that they can sin. It is only after they sin that
    we can remind them of their law so that they can be in guilt."
    He continued to let them forget to take care of the leaders financially.

    HEREDITARY

    Then the devil announced another strategy that he called hereditary. Then Lucifer said, "For God
    loved the world so much that He gave His one and only Son so that everyone who believes in Him
    will not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16). This is humanity's favorite passage that I am
    reversing. For Satan so hate the world that he gave his own son Beelzebub so that whoever fell in
    his trap shall not be saved but perish forever."
    Then the devil exclaims and said, "I love Beelzebub because of his mission. He is gonna assist me
    to bring forth a great posterity. My great family is in the making. Behold I have so many people
    resembling me."
    Beloved, the Bible said that Jesus branded the high priests as the children of the devil because of
    their behavior. Jesus said, "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He
    was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him.

    When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar and the father of it." (John 8:44)
    The devil said, "I am branded as the father of lies, therefore, I need more children who are liars and
    who resemble me. That is why I order you Beelzebub to trap anybody practicing lies and
    incorporate them into my family. When any man would be deliberately lying in that very moment
    you get a hold of him to bring him inside my family. Indeed I am called the father of lies and liars
    are my children. Whatever their confession and profession whether they are pastors evangelists
    priests deacons, bring them to me for they are my children."
    Then the devil said to Beelzebub, "Incite people to pride because I am the father of pride. As a
    result, I will have many children. You're going to incite men to sin because it is written that I sinned
    right from the beginning and the more they are sinning the more children I have."
    "Beelzebub, I have always been treated as the opponent and the adversary so you gonna make sure
    that the whole world is in sin so that they would be opponents and adversaries of God and the more
    they are sinning the more children I have."
    "Beelzebub, they must despise the church and prayer. They must despise men of God. They must
    despise the holy things. They must oppose Bible traditions and values. They must denigrate
    Christianity."
    The devil said, "You Beelzebub my prime minister I charged you to combat the Word preached in
    churches all over the world."
    Actually, Lucifer has a global government and Beelzebub is the prime minister of his global
    government. The devil said to Beelzebub, "Let the Word preached in churches all over the world be
    without Revelation. Let their preaching be without edification. Let these preachers lose their fire
    and anointing. Let them be limited. Let them be focused on miracles. Let them be focused on
    prosperity. Let them be focused on the spectacular things."
    Beloved the devil wants the church to focus on earthly things and temporary things. Then Lucifer
    said, "It is written in their Scripture and their law that your Word is lamp unto my feet and a light
    unto my path and the moment the revelational Word which is the light is replaced by accessories
    and the materials items then there will be no more be light left in these churches but there will be
    darkness and as consequence the church will be my synagogue. If they continued and said the word
    of their Master and Lord has branded me as the Prince of Darkness it will be like a curse in these
    churches as I will be the Prince of these churches that are in darkness as a result of the corrupt word
    preached there."
    The devil said to Beelzebub, "You must stifle their leaders and preachers financially so that they
    lack the basic necessities. As a consequence, they will be overloaded with problems and setbacks.

    They will focus their attention on how to get by instead of spending their time on the Word and
    prayer.

    Beloved churches must organize in order to support the ministry so that the pastor can deal with the
    Word in order to spare him from working and taking care of himself.

    Then the devil said, "Let's target the pastors' wives so that there will not be harmony in their homes.

    As a result, the pastor will be demoralized with stress and sickness." The devil said. "Let's work so
    that we will send women to these pastors to get them to fornicate. As a result, they will become
    ordinary humans and carnal and it will be a defeat for the church."
    Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body, but he that committeth fornication
    sinneth against his own body. (1 Cor 6:18)

    OCCULTISM

    The devil unveiled a strategy called occultism. He said, "The purpose of this strategy is information
    gathering about believers. We will operate through two sectors. Firstly we will use animals as an
    instrument then we will use art objects. Concerning animals we are gonna use domestic animals
    closer to humans like dogs and cats. We will use dogs and cats as a camera in order to get
    information about these believers. These animals will be initiated into spiritism and they will be our
    instruments."
    We must underline that animals do not have a spirit but their bodies can be used as instruments or
    vehicles by the human spirits and demonic spirits.

    Lucifer said, "We are going to use sculpture and statues as instruments." Actually many statues and
    sculptural representation of occultic masters and the spirits of these masters dwell inside these
    statues and people who buy these objects and take them home will be under the influence of spirits
    dwelling in these art objects. Occultists want to enter your house through the object of art, a statue
    or sculpture. These spiritual masters double themselves and send a part of their spirit into the statues
    and when people buy these statues they are bringing a foreign presence in their homes. These
    strangers are represented through statues and they are observing and gathering information about
    you.

    PUTTING OUT THE CHURCH

    Then Lucifer announced a strategy called putting out the church. Lucifer then addressed the
    auditorium and he said, "This is the commission I am giving you witches and wizards. You must
    join churches and be stationed there permanently and you must combat the spiritual growth of local
    churches at all cost. But in case these churches are still growing then forget about spiritual methods.

    Resort to physical methods and subject these churches to criticism and foster divisions among
    them."
    Beloved, every time a local church is characterized by division, slandering, backstabbing, these are
    symptoms of witchcraft activities. I just want to underline that the church will grow only when a
    vision given to the man of God is fulfilled. The church will grow through the support of the
    members who must adapt and align to the vision of the man of God and they must bring their
    assistance and financial contribution.

    Then Lucifer said, "Let's make sure that in every single Church on earth there is at least one witch
    so that he can gather information and report to us." Then the devil said, "Let my servant witches and
    wizards that I assigned to churches be of good standard. You must have a good attitude and be
    closer to pastors in these churches. You must gather information about every local church on the
    surface of the earth and every Saturday at midnight I want you to report containing information
    about what is happening in these local churches."
    Then the devil says to them, "If you fail in your assignment then I will have to send female spirits of
    the sea. They will migrate to the surface of the earth and they will take human shape and they will
    join these churches. They will do your job." The devil insisted, "You must be permanent in these
    churches facilities. Your mission is to bring distraction through dialogue laughs and jokes
    socializing and fornication. You must wake up early before their prayer and bewitch the place of
    prayer so that intercessors will be heavy and will fail to pray effectively. The devil said, "For
    witches, it is enough to bewitch the church facilities. You just need to metamorphose to insects and
    blow the bluish smoke in order to change the atmosphere in the church facilities and prayer room.

    As a consequence, everybody will be heavy during the prayer." And then the devil said to the
    participants, "You must oppose revelational preaching and teaching."
    The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you! Amen.
    SATAN'S STRATEGIES AGAINST CHRISTIANS UNVEILED IN THE SECOND HEAVEN by Moses Lushiku 6 Let me give a brief statement about my call and vocation from the Lord. It happened one day as I was laying down on the courtyard of my house when suddenly a force took over me. As a result, my spirit went out of my body and I was taken to the sky. When I got there in the atmosphere I saw the Lord Jesus Christ. Beloved, when you meet the Lord Jesus Christ you will know that you are standing before God Himself. It is automatic when the Lord Jesus Christ set His eyes on you. His anointing will be transferred to you and your understanding will be renewed and enlightened instantaneously and you will be connected to the supernatural. The Lord said to me, "Look at the earth." When I looked at planet Earth the Lord said, "When you divide the earth into three portions that are the proportion of humanity that will be saved through your message and your ministry." The Lord said, "You are an end time servant. I will use your ministry and others to bring about the rapture of the church. Your ministry will be prophetic in order to prepare My people for the rapture." A few weeks later I was convinced by the Spirit of the Lord to spend some time in the church for prayer. As a result, I began to spend most of my time in the church in prayer. In fact, I left my house in order to sleep in the church for prayer. I spent eight consecutive months in the presence of the Lord. This was not a result of an audible voice recommendation but a simple conviction of the Holy Spirit. I was sleeping in the church. Later I was joined by members of my church. They were touched by the fact that I have left behind my house in order to pray and sleep in the church for many months. Then one day in the morning after prayer something happened. I was talking to a member of my church when suddenly I saw three beings of extreme beauty dressed in white garments of luminous glow. These tall and robust angels were not touching the ground. These were supernatural entities. The first angel introduced himself to me and said, "I'm the Archangel Michael. I work in the field of spiritual warfare. It is written that the angel of the Lord encamps around them that fear Him (Ps 34:7). I am the one who encamped around the children of God. I will reveal to you the secrets about the kingdom of Lucifer in spiritual warfare. I will tell you the secrets about the devil because I know him. I was the leader of the regiment that cast him out of heaven." Rev 12:7-9 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. The second angel introduced himself to me as Gabriel. He said to me, "I am the one who appeared to your sister Mary in order to announce her the good news about the birth of the Savior. The Bible says, "God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth a city in Galilee. The angel went to a virgin promised in marriage to a descendant of David named Joseph. The Virgin's name was Mary. When the angel entered her home he greeted her and said, 'You are favored by the Lord. The Lord is with you.' She was startled by what the angel said and tried to figure out what this greeting meant. The angel told her, "Don't be afraid Mary you have found favor with God. You will become pregnant and give birth to a son and name Him Jesus. He will be a great man and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give Him the throne of His ancestor David. Your Son will be king of Jacob's people forever and His kingdom will never end." (Luke 1:26-33) Beloved, when I heard the Archangel Gabriel calling Mary the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ "My sister" I felt a special feeling, a feeling of pride and prestige. Then Gabriel said to me, "I am the one who gives believers messages in dreams and visions. When they are in deep sleep I will reveal a lot of things to them." Actually, the Archangel Gabriel revealed to me 100 secrets contained in Jesus' parables. Then the Archangel Gabriel said, "We come to your churches and to your houses and we walk by your side yet you people are so busy with everyday preoccupation which has reduced your spiritual sensibility. Therefore you cannot sense our presence around you and you cannot see us although we are everyday around you. But the fact that many of the children of God are seeing us these days it is an indication that the event of the return of the Son of God is at hand. I will reveal to you secrets about life beyond the grave and the end of time." The third angel seems different from Michael and Gabriel. He introduced himself as Marvelous. He said, "I am the angel that appeared to the mother of Samson. The Bible says, "A man of Zorah named Manoah from the clan of the Danites had a wife who was childless unable to give birth. The angel of the Lord appeared to her and said, 'You are barren and childless but you are going to become pregnant and give birth to a son. Now see to it that you drink no wine or other fermented drink and that you do not eat anything unclean. You will become pregnant and have a son whose head is never to be touched by a razor because the boy is to be a Nazarite dedicated to God from the womb. He will take the lead in delivering Israel from the hands of the Philistines." (Judges 13:2-5) The angel Marvelous said, "I work in the field of salvation." And at the end times, this angel with the name of Marvelous was the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. After this first encounter, the next four days were days of angelic visitation as the whole church was able to hear the voice of the angels of the Lord. On the fifth day of angelic visitations, something happened. It was on the 10th of February 2007 at 5:00 p.m. The Archangel Michael who promised to reveal to me secrets about the devil and spiritual warfare came and he held my right hand. Immediately my spirit left my body. Michael held my right hand. We took a speedy flight. We began to ascend in the speed of light and we found ourselves in the atmosphere and over there in space the Archangel asked me, "Do you know where we are going?" I was about to respond when he said, "Lucifer has summoned a meeting in the 2nd heaven which will start in a few minutes. The kingdom of heaven has chosen you as their representative to take part in that meeting and reveal the contents of this gathering to the world." A few minutes later we arrived in the second heaven. Then we entered the auditorium which was a huge oval hall. This place was between heaven and the earth. The chief angel Michael said to me, "Fear not and don't panic. You just stand by my side. You must observe and listen to everything. You have been commissioned to tell the world everything you will see and hear." Actually, as I was attending this gathering in the 2nd heaven the Lord Jesus Christ had entered my body that was left on the earth and He took complete control of my senses. He was addressing the people of God in the church while my spirit was attending this summit in the atmosphere. Back in the auditorium in the second heaven, I noticed that the hall was full to capacity. Demons of all kinds and people from all nations were waiting for the prince of this world, the devil. Once we got in the meeting hall the chief angel Michael said to me, "Very soon you will see our enemy which is your enemy." We were hovering over this auditorium when suddenly I heard a thunderous explosion. This detonation was the arrival of Lucifer. The devil did not arrive like everybody else but in a thunderous explosion. SATAN WITH DOG HEAD I saw Satan for the first time on the 10 of February 2007. Immediately after landing in the oval auditorium the devil transformed himself. I mean his head turned to that of a dog. Then he said to the participants, "Do not be surprised by my emblem of a dog head. I took the appearance of the dog because I want to demonstrate to you that I am God. The reason that I summoned you today is that I heard the other One claiming that He is God and that He wants to save humanity." The devil and demons of Hell don't quote the name of Jesus Christ for fear of adverse effects. The devil refers to Jesus Christ as "The Other One." Then with a hand sign, the devil removed the sealing of the oval Hall and he caused the assistants to rise beyond the ceiling of the auditorium. I saw the assistants suspended in space and observing planet Earth. I have to admit that I managed to recognize some faces of the assistants. Then I saw the devil pointing a particular section of the earth. He actually zoomed to a section of the earth. As a result, we saw people getting on with their lives in that section of the earth but strangely all the people on that section of the earth had dog heads just like Lucifer himself. Afterward, the devil zoomed to another geographic section of the earth and we saw the human population of that part of the earth with dog heads. Then the devil zoomed to still another section of planet Earth and we saw people in different churches. We saw pastors, we saw evangelists, church singers, deacons in the church with dog heads. Churches were full of believers, preachers, and singers with dog heads. Afterward, the devil got the assistants back in the auditorium. Then he said to the participants, "You saw with your own eyes 80% of the world population with dog heads which is my emblem. You saw with your own eyes many believers preachers singers with my emblem of a dog head. They have my image and my likeness. They look like me yet the other One who claimed to be God the savior of humanity has only 20% of the world population. The question every one of you is to ask and to answer is this, 'Who is God - Him or me?' He has only 20% of the world population. Who is powerful - Him or me? It is written in their law that the dog has returned to what he has vomited. When the devil said this I remember the passage in 2 Peter 2:21-22, For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog has turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. Then I saw the devil still with his dog head. He vomited on his pulpit and then he consumed his vomit. Then he said to the assistants, "It is thanks to my power that 80% of the world population are sinners and the majority of the believers have backslidden. Any Christian that has backslidden has adopted my emblem of the dog head. He has my image." At that moment I saw the assistants that were made up of demons and humans falling down on their knees worshipping the devil and declaring him God. The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 4:4, In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. The assistants were worshipping the devil and saying, "You are God because 80 percent of the world population resembled you. They have your image and your emblem. You are more powerful than the other One who has only twenty percent of the world population." Dear believers every time we are living in sin we are adopting the emblem of the devil which is a dog head. The Bible says whosoever practices sin is of the devil. He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose, the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. (1 Jn 3:8) I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Blessed are they that do His commandments (“Blessed are they that wash their robes.” - other translations), that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. (Rev 22:13-15) As the worship of Lucifer was going on, the Archangel Michael and I stood in a diagonal position to the pulpit of the devil and then the devil started the meeting which was to last four months. In the firmament, he began to unveil his 80 strategies against humanity in the church. His words were automatically printed on a book called "Techniques and Tactics." That book is also called a "Traps Trigger" which means how to set a trap for the foolish man and the imprudent. The gathering in the firmament lasted four months. Basically every time the devil was unveiling a strategy he was adjourning the meeting in order to deploy demons to execute the new strategy in various regions of the earth and sometimes demons were traveling in a dimension beyond our physical world. In the meantime, the meeting would be suspended and the participants would be waiting for their return and their report. These demons were traveling to many parts of the earth that were in night or day times. They were traveling long distances in a split second or very few minutes and they were traveling to several countries, continents, and cities. They were also traveling to the marine kingdom, the subterranean kingdom and even to the firmament. And every time these demons were traveling to the cosmos I had to follow them in order to see what is happening and how they were executing their missions. I was ordered continuously by the Archangel Michael to follow them. As a result, I have been to many invisible kingdoms of Lucifer and I have accumulated knowledge of the tactics and strategies of the enemy. In this message, I will bring you words of Lucifer exactly as he said them so that everybody would understand the kingdom of darkness. As it is written, "You will know the truth and the truth will set you free." (John 8:32) Then the devil started to address the assistants with arrogance. He said to the participants, "I have gathered you today because we have an opponent. I heard Him saying that He wants to save humanity. That is why I have gathered you today so that we can prevent that from happening. Today I will deliver a few strategies in order to cause His followers to become weak and vulnerable so that our kingdom will grow on the earth." THE LAW OF REPETITION AND RESISTANCE Then Lucifer started to enumerate and elaborate on his strategies which were a total of 80 points. The devil disclosed the first strategy that he called vaccine or the law of repetition and resistance. He said, "Through this strategy, we will impose law in the lives of born-again Christians. Basically, the followers of Jesus Christ have a luminous ring of fire above their head and this orbit of fire above their head is potentially destructive. It can neutralize us, therefore, I want to underline that you should not come close to Christians as long as their ring of fire is shining and burning. We must initially put out the fire of that ring of light before engaging them for fear of defeat." "Let it be clear if you come to report to me after being wrecked because of the ring of fire I will be left with no choice but to destroy you. Do not come close to Christians as long as their fire is burning and glowing. You must observe and monitor them before taking any action against them. On the other hand, it will be apparent that when these people commit sin, the fiery ring of light will go off. Their light would be put out as a result of sin. It is only that way that they will become vulnerable. In fact, your mission is to get born-again Christians to commit sin in order to turn off the ring of fire and light above their heads." Dear believers, there is a ring of fire above the head of each born-again Christian which is self generating electric energy of God. The Bible says you are the light of the world (Matt 5:14). A Christian is full of divine and electric energy and the electricity charges from God are running all over his system. That is why a demon would not come close to a Christian. Then the devil said to the assistants, "You must use the method of surveillance and monitoring. I order you to watch them and their families in order to mount a surveillance system around born again Christians. Do not do anything against them before mounting a system of surveillance and monitoring and when they sin you will notice that their light and fire emanating from the luminous ring and orbit of fire will go off. The moment a born-again Christian commits sin, you will report to me because this is the best time to attack them. On this basis, you have to understand that sin is our gospel and sin will be our gospel. Sin is the mechanism by which the luminous flame of the believer goes off." And I saw the devil instructed his demon to report to him every time a Christian sinned because that is of a critical moment to strike him. I come today to beseech you Christians to keep your flame luminous. Every born-again Christian has the responsibility of keeping his luminous ring of fire turned on. The Bible says that John was a burning and shining lamp and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light (John 5:35). The Satanic world is desperate to get Christian fire and light to go off. They can do nothing against believers as long as the ring of fire is burning and shining. It is sin that turns off the light of the believer inducing in him a time of vulnerability and fragility. After explaining this strategy, I saw the devil summoning eight demons to step forward and he gave them syringes. The devil said to them, "Every time a born-again Christian is caught in the act of sinning you will inject this vaccine called the law of resistance and repetition in him. When a Christian is caught in sin, you will surround him and you will pray. You will summon me in the following prayer, "O supreme master Lucifer this is your victim who has listened to your voice and he has obeyed your order and instruction. Come and enter his body which is your temple." When you say this prayer I will come in a speed of lightning and I will enter the body of this believer and I will vaccinate him with the law of resistance and repetition. As a consequence, he will fall repeatedly in that sin despite his fasting despite his decision to abandon his sin. The victim will always fall in that sin because he is vaccinated with the law of repetition. Even if the believer confessed his sin but as he is injected with the law of repetition he will become a slave of that sin. He will repeat that sin again and again despite his remorse despite his will his fasting and his determination. Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. (John 8:34) Then the devil said to eight demons standing before him, "After you vaccinated the victim seven of you will leave him but you will stay and be stationed around the victim. You will monitor and surveil this Christian in case this believer feel the guilt and he is manifesting the will to repent and abandon his repetitive sin. I order the demon stationed around him for monitoring him to call the other seven demons. Once they joined you the head, you will call me again in this following prayer, "O supreme master, this is your victim who wants to rebel from you and escape your bondage." At that moment I will come down at the speed of lightning. I will enter his body in order to shake the vaccine in him. As a result, the victim will weaken and will have the tendency to return to that sin despite his will to escape." Then I saw on a pulpit of the devil a mirror. The devil did an incantation prayer. As a result, this mirror was multiplied. It was distributed to the assistants. The devil said, "Before attacking a Christian you must make sure that he is visible in the mirror." Beloved when a demon is coming to fight you, he is coming with information and precision. He is well informed about your condition. The devil said to the assistants, "That Fellow (Jesus) has branded me the prince of this world. If only one of them affectionate himself with the things of this world his profile will be visible in the mirror. Some of their attitudes are my nature like anger, animosity, envy, and hate. Those who are in these things belong to our kingdom automatically. But remember to check in the mirror before doing anything against them. If they appear in the mirror it means that they are in a state of weakness and their weakness and sin are my nature." ATTACK THE AREAS OF THEIR NEEDS The next strategy is called: NEED. Lucifer said, "We must watch and analyse the emotions and the feelings of Christians by observing their 3 needs: Marriage, Finance, and Ambition." He continued, "If you have been fighting one of them, and failing because of their holiness, and righteousness, just give up but focus on their marriage. Wait until when they will think about getting married. You will work to inject suggestion in their head to get them to make a false choice. It is from here that upright people will fall when they make a wrong choice, and we get them to marry our representative, by investigating their criteria, and preference." Lucifer said, "As we have many enterprises and corporations on earth, you will be arranged so that they end up working in our companies and businesses, and they will be surrounded by our agents. They will be paid salary with our bewitched money and they will sign contract with us without knowing. I asked my demons to give them initiative so that they can expand their business, as a result, they will always be focused on the material world." The devil always fights the marriage because this is a covenant that makes people one in marriage. There is a law called the law of fusion which make 2 people 1. And the devil likes it so that he can unite wheat and tares together to create fusion and confusion. CONDEMNATION DUE TO WORDS COMING OUT OF OUR MOUTHS My dear believers, I am here to bring words from the enemy exactly as I heard it in his meeting in the firmament. I heard the devil unveiling one strategy after another. Then he unveiled a strategy against the church called condemnation. He said, "My agent demons followers and demons observers, you have a very important role to play. Your purpose is to observe and listen to what comes out of the mouths of believers. You're gonna have to be patient. You must follow them and listen carefully to words coming out of their mouths. Actually, these humans claimed to have been created in the image and the likeness of God but this is what we will do to them. We have five strategies in order to condemn them on the basis of what comes from their mouth." The first strategy is during the TIME OF ANGER. The devil said to demons observers and followers, "In the time of anger humans don't control their words and they don't control their decisions nor their actions. Therefore, this is a critical time in order to capture their words and condemn them." Beloved, you must understand that when you are angry there are demons assigned by the devil to observe you and to capture words from your mouth and decision you make. Therefore when you are angry you must learn to hold your tongue. You must not sleep with anger and you must forgive. The Bible says death and life are in the power of the tongue and those who love it will eat its fruit. (Proverbs 18:21) The devil will use your words to condemn you. The second critical moment is the TIME OF CHOICE as the devil said to his demons, "Condemn people pronouncing a word of love. When you hear a human saying to his partner, "You are my angel," his guardian angel must leave on the basis of his own word. As a result, his partner will take the angel place. He is condemned by his own word. When someone says I will only marry this or that type of man this is verbal government binding him. He is inviting the spirit of singleness." Beloved, people are binding themselves in covenants through words spoken from their mouth. It is necessary to cancel negative words. There are words you say that will destroy your life as they are captured and brought to pass by demons. The third tactic is in TIMES OF HUMAN SUFFERING. The devil said to his demons observers and followers, "In a time of suffering and hardship I always hear humans saying, 'Oh I am miserable. I am unlucky in my life. Everything I do is not working.'" The devil orders these demons to bring to pass those words and sentences spoken by humans during their hard times as many cursed and condemned themselves through their own mouths. CAUSING BELIEVERS TO BE LAZY AND HEAVY Then the devil unveiled an additional strategy that will cause believers to be heavy so that they won't be able to pray or read the Bible or attend the church. As a result, they will become an ordinary human being. The devil insisted to the participants by saying, "Do not let them pray. Do not let them read the scripture. Do not let them go to church. Do not let them tithe." Then I saw the devil summoning a demon that looked like Superman. This demon was dressed in red and blue just like Superman but the devil called him superhuman. He said to him, "I have chosen you to visit Christians at home in the days of their church service. You must be informed about their church program five hours before it starts. You're gonna blow on them the bluish smoke. As a result, they will become heavy and they will feel like not going to church. They will feel uncomfortable." The devil said to him, "Blow your bluish smoke even on their cars. As a result, the unexplained breakdown will happen. They will seek justification not to attend church and they will have them." Lucifer said to the superhuman, "You shall move from one Christian house to another and you shall blow your bluish smoke. As a result, there shall be procrastination. As a consequence, they shall be incapable of praying even if they set the clock. The same thing with Bible reading. They will have the feeling of doing something relaxing instead of going to church." PERSON NAMES AS A TOOL TO DESTROY THEM Then the devil unveiled another strategy called name. The devil said, "We will use people's names as a tool of manipulation in order to destroy them." It is clear that the devil is always seeking ways to destroy humanity and he said to the demons, "You will make sure that their lives have become their names." Beloved, in the Bible, when God called people He changed their names. If you do not have a positive name you better change it now. The Bible says in Gen 32:28, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed. I heard the devil saying the spirit of homonym (words with the same sound but have different meanings) will follow the hominin (all humankind). Examples of homonym are Bat - an implement used to hit a ball / a nocturnal flying mammal Bright - very smart or intelligent / filled with light Circular - taking the form of a circle / a store advertisement The second issue about a name is that when you name yourself or your child after a family member or a friend the nature of that person can be transferred to you or your child through the channel of the name and there are these demons, followers, and observers. Their job is that every time your name is called they have to transform you into your name. Every time your name is called they will get meaning of that name to come to pass and fulfill in your life so that you become your name. BEWITCHMENT THRU BEAUTY AND HYGIENE PRODUCTS The devil announced another strategy called beauty and hygiene products. I saw the devil order 30 demons to travel back under the ocean and while these 30 demons were leaving the oval auditorium heading underwater, the Archangel Michael order me to follow them. This was our secondary journey beneath the ocean and this time around the devil sent these demons to meet underwater sirens so that they can design beauty and makeup products. When we were leaving the oval hall the devil interrupted the meeting in order to wait for the contingent of 30 demons to bring back beauty products. When we arrived underwater it's like the water siren and goddess Lamaze who knew already what Lucifer wanted. She could also read the mind of these demons. In fact, every time the devil think about something he can transfer his thought quickly to his collaborators. The devil possesses a network that allows him to inject thought to his followers. When Jesus said to Peter, "Get thee behind me, Satan," He was dealing with a thought from the devil that he transferred to Peter's mind. That's how the devil work. I saw demons of all kinds under the ocean. I saw sirens under the ocean who were very beautiful women. They were extremely beautiful as though they were changing faces. I remember their names such as Alice and Jacqueline Sol Ange Lily Liliane Juliet. Then I saw their great lady, the Queen of the Coast manipulating the sand beneath the water and turning them to beauty products. I saw powder, lipstick, lotions, soap and many more. There were tons of these beauty products. I saw a siren in the name of Juliet printing her face and her name on the wrapping and embossed on the soap. This soap called Juliet is still used in our region and our country. When you use that soap the power of seduction of Juliet will be at work on your appearance which is artificial beauty. Therefore you must pray for these beauty products as the Bible says to pray ceaselessly even in little things. And then the devil said, "We will dressed women with a mask of ugliness and old age in order to undermine their marriage and cause their husbands to be tired of them." The 30 demons transported these beauty products from the underwater to the oval meeting hall in the second heaven. As the hall was oval they placed them in the middle of the hall. There were lipsticks, soaps, lotions, deodorants, fragrance, and others. Then the devil resumed the meeting and I watched as the devil began to curse these beauty products. The devil said, "We will spread demonic smells on women or men that are using our deodorants and fragrances. The moment their sweat mixed with our deodorants they will smell like some of our demons." Actually, demons have their smells and I know these smells. Some demons smell a mixture of deodorants and sweat. Other smells like acid. Then Lucifer said, "Women using our products will have artificial beauty. They will have the beauty of my servants the sirens and mermaid printed on their face. It is this way that we will spread fornication on the earth. When women use these beauty products they will become irresistible." The devil said, "Every time a human will envy these women because of the beauty of my servants the sirens and mermaids they will be admiring and worshipping images of the things under the sea which are sirens and mermaids." As far as the devil is concerned, the pictures of sirens and mermaids on makeup products are equal to building an image of things from under the sea. These beautiful faces of sirens and mermaids that are printed on the makeup and beauty products are a representation of sirens and mermaids as it is written you shall not make for yourself an idol or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. (Ex 20:4) Now the question is, "Should women use beauty products?" Yes, women can but they should also have discernment and pray. We should learn to pray for everything. I mean everything we buy in the market we need a life of ceaseless prayer (1 Thess 5:17). When I was in the marine Kingdom I saw sirens designing beauty products and they were printing their faces on these different lotions and beauty products. I heard Lucifer saying repeatedly, "Let fight. Let not slow down. Let continue to work in order to separate believers from their Master." FORGETFULNESS TO DAILY SACRED DUTIES Then the devil unveiled a new strategy called forgetfulness. He said to the participants, "We must work to get believers to forget their daily sacred duty and obligation. As a result, they will be in discord with their Master. Their Master is supposed to be the central and a cornerstone of their lives but we must work so that their Lord will no longer be the central focus of their existence. Firstly let get them to forget praying, as a result, they will lack spiritual strength." Beloved when I heard this from the mouth of Lucifer, I understood that prayer gives believers spiritual strength and even the Bible says to pray ceaselessly (1 Thess 5:17). Then Lucifer said, "We must give them to forget about going to church by confusing church schedules. As a result, they will be without anointing." By these words, I understood that attending the church gives believers more anointing as it is written in the psalm of David, "Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments. As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for evermore." (Psalms 133:1-3) The devil continued and he said, "Let them forget reading the Bible." Then the devil drew the attention of the participants by saying, "Be careful of that book. It is magical and powerful. They must not read it otherwise they will have the knowledge and they will uncover our actions." The devil continued and said, "Let them forget paying tithes so that we can ransack and plunder their houses and finances. We will send them hardships and sicknesses and cause them to spend beyond their means." These words made me understand the importance of tithing. Tithe protects our business and our finances and the scriptures says in Malachi 3:10-11, Bring you all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in my house, and prove me now herewith, said the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, said the LORD of hosts. Then the devil said again, "Let them forget their law so that they can sin. It is only after they sin that we can remind them of their law so that they can be in guilt." He continued to let them forget to take care of the leaders financially. HEREDITARY Then the devil announced another strategy that he called hereditary. Then Lucifer said, "For God loved the world so much that He gave His one and only Son so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16). This is humanity's favorite passage that I am reversing. For Satan so hate the world that he gave his own son Beelzebub so that whoever fell in his trap shall not be saved but perish forever." Then the devil exclaims and said, "I love Beelzebub because of his mission. He is gonna assist me to bring forth a great posterity. My great family is in the making. Behold I have so many people resembling me." Beloved, the Bible said that Jesus branded the high priests as the children of the devil because of their behavior. Jesus said, "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar and the father of it." (John 8:44) The devil said, "I am branded as the father of lies, therefore, I need more children who are liars and who resemble me. That is why I order you Beelzebub to trap anybody practicing lies and incorporate them into my family. When any man would be deliberately lying in that very moment you get a hold of him to bring him inside my family. Indeed I am called the father of lies and liars are my children. Whatever their confession and profession whether they are pastors evangelists priests deacons, bring them to me for they are my children." Then the devil said to Beelzebub, "Incite people to pride because I am the father of pride. As a result, I will have many children. You're going to incite men to sin because it is written that I sinned right from the beginning and the more they are sinning the more children I have." "Beelzebub, I have always been treated as the opponent and the adversary so you gonna make sure that the whole world is in sin so that they would be opponents and adversaries of God and the more they are sinning the more children I have." "Beelzebub, they must despise the church and prayer. They must despise men of God. They must despise the holy things. They must oppose Bible traditions and values. They must denigrate Christianity." The devil said, "You Beelzebub my prime minister I charged you to combat the Word preached in churches all over the world." Actually, Lucifer has a global government and Beelzebub is the prime minister of his global government. The devil said to Beelzebub, "Let the Word preached in churches all over the world be without Revelation. Let their preaching be without edification. Let these preachers lose their fire and anointing. Let them be limited. Let them be focused on miracles. Let them be focused on prosperity. Let them be focused on the spectacular things." Beloved the devil wants the church to focus on earthly things and temporary things. Then Lucifer said, "It is written in their Scripture and their law that your Word is lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path and the moment the revelational Word which is the light is replaced by accessories and the materials items then there will be no more be light left in these churches but there will be darkness and as consequence the church will be my synagogue. If they continued and said the word of their Master and Lord has branded me as the Prince of Darkness it will be like a curse in these churches as I will be the Prince of these churches that are in darkness as a result of the corrupt word preached there." The devil said to Beelzebub, "You must stifle their leaders and preachers financially so that they lack the basic necessities. As a consequence, they will be overloaded with problems and setbacks. They will focus their attention on how to get by instead of spending their time on the Word and prayer. Beloved churches must organize in order to support the ministry so that the pastor can deal with the Word in order to spare him from working and taking care of himself. Then the devil said, "Let's target the pastors' wives so that there will not be harmony in their homes. As a result, the pastor will be demoralized with stress and sickness." The devil said. "Let's work so that we will send women to these pastors to get them to fornicate. As a result, they will become ordinary humans and carnal and it will be a defeat for the church." Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body, but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. (1 Cor 6:18) OCCULTISM The devil unveiled a strategy called occultism. He said, "The purpose of this strategy is information gathering about believers. We will operate through two sectors. Firstly we will use animals as an instrument then we will use art objects. Concerning animals we are gonna use domestic animals closer to humans like dogs and cats. We will use dogs and cats as a camera in order to get information about these believers. These animals will be initiated into spiritism and they will be our instruments." We must underline that animals do not have a spirit but their bodies can be used as instruments or vehicles by the human spirits and demonic spirits. Lucifer said, "We are going to use sculpture and statues as instruments." Actually many statues and sculptural representation of occultic masters and the spirits of these masters dwell inside these statues and people who buy these objects and take them home will be under the influence of spirits dwelling in these art objects. Occultists want to enter your house through the object of art, a statue or sculpture. These spiritual masters double themselves and send a part of their spirit into the statues and when people buy these statues they are bringing a foreign presence in their homes. These strangers are represented through statues and they are observing and gathering information about you. PUTTING OUT THE CHURCH Then Lucifer announced a strategy called putting out the church. Lucifer then addressed the auditorium and he said, "This is the commission I am giving you witches and wizards. You must join churches and be stationed there permanently and you must combat the spiritual growth of local churches at all cost. But in case these churches are still growing then forget about spiritual methods. Resort to physical methods and subject these churches to criticism and foster divisions among them." Beloved, every time a local church is characterized by division, slandering, backstabbing, these are symptoms of witchcraft activities. I just want to underline that the church will grow only when a vision given to the man of God is fulfilled. The church will grow through the support of the members who must adapt and align to the vision of the man of God and they must bring their assistance and financial contribution. Then Lucifer said, "Let's make sure that in every single Church on earth there is at least one witch so that he can gather information and report to us." Then the devil said, "Let my servant witches and wizards that I assigned to churches be of good standard. You must have a good attitude and be closer to pastors in these churches. You must gather information about every local church on the surface of the earth and every Saturday at midnight I want you to report containing information about what is happening in these local churches." Then the devil says to them, "If you fail in your assignment then I will have to send female spirits of the sea. They will migrate to the surface of the earth and they will take human shape and they will join these churches. They will do your job." The devil insisted, "You must be permanent in these churches facilities. Your mission is to bring distraction through dialogue laughs and jokes socializing and fornication. You must wake up early before their prayer and bewitch the place of prayer so that intercessors will be heavy and will fail to pray effectively. The devil said, "For witches, it is enough to bewitch the church facilities. You just need to metamorphose to insects and blow the bluish smoke in order to change the atmosphere in the church facilities and prayer room. As a consequence, everybody will be heavy during the prayer." And then the devil said to the participants, "You must oppose revelational preaching and teaching." The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you! Amen.

    FRIDAY JULY 24, 2O26.
    "DON'T LOOSE YOUR COMPASSIONATE EDGE (2)"

    '…Faith…if it does not have works, is dead.’  James 2:17 NKJV

    MOTHER TERESA said, ‘The biggest disease today isn’t leprosy or cancer. It’s the feeling of being uncared for, unwanted—of being deserted and alone.’ As a result, she spent her life rescuing sick babies and giving dignity to the dying. Asked why she did it, she replied, ‘Because Jesus did.’ What a great answer! When simultaneous disasters hit different countries around the world, humanitarian organisations say we suffer from ‘donor fatigue’. Let’s add one more: ‘compassion failure.’ Philosopher Miguel de Unamuno wrote, ‘Warmth, warmth, more warmth! For we are dying of cold and not of darkness. It is not the night that kills, but the frost.’ Think about this: of the 1,189 chapters in the Bible, 250 contain the words of the prophets. That’s roughly 25 percent. Half of what they say denounces sin and the other half condemns those who see human suffering and do nothing about it. Yet events that horrified those same prophets take place in our world every day, and we’re immune to them. Like wearing a watch, you get used to it and after a while you don’t even notice it. But the prophets noticed! They never became desensitised to sin—or human suffering. And you mustn’t either. You say, ‘But my main focus at the moment is on building up my faith.’ That’s a good thing; but never forget that ‘Faith by itself, if it does not have works [of compassion], is dead.’

    ```DAILY ANNA - (A DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE FOR ADULTS)

    FRIDAY 24TH JULY, 2026```


    *DON'T BE A COLLATERAL VICTIM* 🫵🏽🏽‍🏽‍🏽🏽‍🏽

    ```TEXT:JOSHUA 12:1-6```

    ```KEY VERSE:``` _*"Now these are the kings of the land, which the children of Israel smote, and possessed their land on the other side Jordan toward the rising of the sun, from the river Arnon unto mount Hermon, and all the plain on the east" (JOSHUA 12:1).*_

    *There are people who sleep walk into disaster, through either arrogance, pride or sheer hubris. It may be that they had recorded successes in previous battles, or have become famous for their accomplishments. They may deem themselves to be invincible, and either declare a war that's totally unnecessary, or inject themselves into other people's battles. In the end, they become the victims of their ego and exaggerated sense of power and importance.*

    *This is what happened to the kings of the nations on the east of River Jordan. The children of Israel were on a journey ordered by the Almighty God. They were heading to the land of Canaan, in fulfilment of the promise God made to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Their land was not part of Canaan, and therefore, was not intended to be inherited by the Israelites. The inheritance of the Israelites was to be solely Canaan, the land flowing with milk and honey. But on their way, the Israelites encountered nations that had heard about the supernatural work of God in bringing them out of Egypt. Although the Israelites did not declare war against them, these nations, some out of unfounded fear of losing their territory, and others out of envy and hatred against this nation that had a God that can subdue, humble and defeat Egypt, the great world power of the time, took it on themselves to stop Israel from progressing towards their land of promise. One of such kings was Sihon, king of the Amorites, whose nation was mainly a lush vegetation sandwiched by rivers and plain land that was a haven for pastoralists and for other forms of agriculture. The other king was Og, king of Bashan, a land of the remnants of the giants, with similar topography as the land of the Amorites. When they rose against the Israelites, they were roundly defeated, their kingdoms destroyed and their land confiscated by Moses. He subsequently allocated the land to two and half tribes of Israel, which desired to settle there because it was suitable for their vocation as pastoralists. Had those nations stayed out of the way of the Israelites, they would have remained in their land.*

    *We must be wise and not take on battles that are not ours, whether out of sympathy with other people or to prove that we are powerful. As believers, we have more than enough battles against principalities and powers, rulers of the darkness of this world, spiritual wickedness in high places, against sin and Satan. The armour Christ has given us is intended to defeat these adversaries. It is not to be wasted on self-imposed battles that do not benefit the kingdom of God. Those who engage in the wrong battles suffer great loss, and live to regret it for the rest of their lives. Let us focus on the assignment Christ has given us, namely, taking the gospel to the world of sinners, and endeavouring to bring as many as are willing, into the kingdom of God.*

    ✍🏽```THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:``` _*Those who fight battles without profit, reap rewards without benefits.*_

    ```FRIDAY 24TH JULY, 2026```

    *DIVINE FRESHNESS* 🫵🏽🏽‍🏽‍🏽🏽‍🏽🏽

    ```TEXT:PSALM 1:1-6```

    ``` MEMORY VERSE:``` _*"And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper" (PSALM 1:3).*_

    *Freshness implies newness of life, originality, and the absence of weakness or death. It is always God's will that His creatures be strong, hale, and hearty. The reverse, however, is the case with many who live in continual weakness, pain, and disability.*

    *God provides the means of drawing from His life for energy. Still, instead of utilizing the provision, they resort to the use of hard drugs and destructive substances for strength and vitality.*

    *THE FOOL IN FULL* 🫵🏽🏽‍🏽‍🫸🏽🏽🏽‍🏽

    ```PSALM 53:1-6```



    ```Key Verse:``` _*"The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good" (Psalm 53:1).*_



    An extract from _Merriam Webster_ dictionary goes thus: *"Something is said to be 'in full' when it has come to the highest or the fullest state of degree, when it is at the uttermost extent or when it is complete, especially in details, number, or duration."*

    The fool in full is the greatest fool that will ever live on earth. He breathes in the air made by God, cultivates the soil created by God, and eats out of the produce thereof, lives in the world God created and enjoys the gift of life given by God, to mention a few; and yet, turns around to say "there is no God."

    The fool deliberately denies the existence of God despite the many proofs of God's existence. He sees the sun, the moon, the stars, the seas and the uncountable creatures in it, but never pauses to ask: *"Who made the world?"* The things he sees tell him there is God, but in his heart, he refuses to give Him the glory.

    There is, however, another fool who accepts there is God but refuses to accept His gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. This category of fools claim they can worship the Living God the way they like. They corrupt the way of worshipping Him; worshipping idols, the work of their hands. The fool can never do what is good before God.

    *You should not be a fool. Believe in the only true God and in Jesus Christ, whom He has sent. Turn away from all corrupt and abominable thoughts and actions. Then you will be saved from the foolishness of this world.*

    *REHEARSAL OF GOD'S FAITHFULNESS*

    *TEXT:* JOSHUA 12:1-6.

    1.Now these are the kings of the land, which the children of Israel smote, and possessed their land on the other side Jordan toward the rising of the sun, from the river Arnon unto mount Hermon, and all the plain on the east:
    2 Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon, and ruled from Aroer, which is upon the bank of the river Arnon, and from the middle of the river, and from half Gilead, even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon;
    3 And from the plain to the sea of Chinneroth on the east, and unto the sea of the plain, even the salt sea on the east, the way to Bethjeshimoth; and from the south, under Ashdothpisgah:
    4 And the coast of Og king of Bashan, which was of the remnant of the giants, that dwelt at Ashtaroth and at Edrei,
    5 And reigned in mount Hermon, and in Salcah, and in all Bashan, unto the border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites, and half Gilead, the border of Sihon king of Heshbon.
    6 Them did Moses the servant of the LORD and the children of Israel smite: and Moses the servant of the LORD gave it for a possession unto the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh.

    *Timeless Truth:*_"Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits"_ (Psalm 103:2).


    *INTRODUCTION*

    From creation, God has been engaged in doing great and new wonders. Some are penned down in the Bible while there are many more that have been experienced by individuals, families, communities and nations since creation of man. The fact that God is immutable guarantees that those miracles can be repeated and increased in greatness and number. One of the greatest ways to strengthen faith is to deliberately rehearse God's faithfulness and meditate on those past wonders of God. Throughout Scripture, God often instructed His people to remember His mighty acts so that they would trust Him for future victories. Israel's conquest of the Amorites under Sihon and the later record of those victories in Joshua remind us that God's past interventions are powerful testimonies of His unfailing covenant. Every believer should cultivate the habit of recalling God's goodness instead of dwelling on past fears or failures. As we recount His faithfulness, our confidence in His promises grows.

    *1.Arrogant Courting of Battles*

    Israel peacefully requested passage through the land of Sihon, king of the Amorites, but Sihon arrogantly rejected the request and chose war instead (Numbers 21:21–25). It is the norm in military warfare that you don't fight those who come and prefer peace to war. The worst is to lead them as captives. Sihon had taken pride in defeating Moab and taking her possessions (Numbers 21:26-2). Their victory over Moab was celebrated as it became a song in the land. He was optimistic and emboldened that he could repeat the same feat against Israel. However, he was thoughtless and proud. His pride blinded him to the fact that he was fighting against God's covenant people. It is dangerous and risky to fight against the covenant people of God. The battle ended in complete defeat of Sihon because no human strength can prevail against God's purpose.
    b. Believers have the domineering power of Jesus Christ to crush every power of the adversaries. However, this is not a license for believers to arrogantly court and tempt the people of darkness to unnecessary warfare. When Herod wanted Jesus to perform some miracles for a show of power, Jesus declined because it was unnecessary (Luke 23:8). When Satan tempted Jesus to jump down from the mountain, Jesus also declined because it was an unnecessary show of power. Believers should avoid unnecessary boasting and fight in the name of the Lord that is borne out of arrogance or pride. Believers should never fear opposition, for God remains the Defender of those who trust Him. At the same time, we must guard against pride, remembering that arrogance always invites destruction.

    *Question*

    Am I trusting God's strength in life's battles, or am I relying on human confidence and pride?

    *2. Appreciative Counting of Blessings*

    Joshua carefully recorded the kings and their land, whom God had delivered into Israel's hands (Joshua 12:1–5). These verses are more than historical records—they are memorials of divine faithfulness. God's people are encouraged to remember every victory and every answered prayer. Gratitude protects the heart from discouragement and unbelief. When we regularly count our blessings, we discover that God's mercies greatly outweigh our trials. Thanksgiving also prepares us to receive greater blessings from the Lord. As the psalmist puts it, *"Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits."* This will take a diligent and deliberate effort like Joshua did when he wrote down and recalled the good wonders of God to himself and to the whole Israel.

    *Question*

    How often do I deliberately remember and thank God for His past faithfulness in my life?

    *3. Additions to Covenant for the Beloved*

    a. The conquered territories were not part of the promised Canaan inheritance. But Sihon and Og lost their land through their pride and arrogance and those blessings were taken from them and added to the children of Israel (Joshua 12:6).
    After getting victory, Moses assigned the conquered territory to the tribes of Reuben, Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh as their inheritance. God's faithfulness extends beyond victory in battle to the fulfillment of His covenant promises.
    b. There are several cases where God took away the assigned blessing of the arrogant and added them to the portion of the godly. Reuben and Esau were supposed to have the double blessings of their first born, but they both lost them through carelessness and profanity. Their blessings were added to Judah and Jacob respectively. Jesus warned the Ephesian Church of loss of ministry if they didn't repent from the loss of their first love and the immoral practices of the Nicolaitans(Revelation 2:5). He also warned the Pastor of Philadelphia that if he was not watchful, his crown would be taken from him and be given or added to another person.
    *"Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown"* (Revelation 3:11). Remember, King Saul lost his crown, which was supposed to be generational, to David. The same with Esau and none of them could get his back. Fight and be watchful to retain and enjoy all your blessings and inheritance assigned to you by God.

    *Question*

    Am I very watchful and prayerful in ensuring that my blessings and inheritance are not taken from me and transferred to another person?

    *Prayer Points*

    1.Heavenly Father, help me always remember and celebrate Your faithfulness in every season of my life .
    2.Lord, deliver me from every form of pride, boasting and unnecessary show of power and grant me victory over every battle confronting my faith .
    3.Give me a grateful heart that continually counts Your blessings instead of focusing on life's difficulties.
    4.Give Your children grace to be watchful and prayerful and don't allow anyone to take their assigned blessings and inheritance .

    *HYMN:* Count Your Blessings

    *BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:* EXODUS 26-29.

    2. Morning Prayer for today.

    MP.i. Morning Prayer

    A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps. ⏤ Proverbs 16:9

    To pray is to let go and let God take over. ⏤ Philip Yancey

    O God, our Father, we, Your children, wait for Your blessing before we go out to the work and care of this new day. We thank You for the blessings You gave us in our sleep. You have renewed our strength and restored what yesterday’s toil took from us. We are strong this morning and ready for another day’s work because of the blessings You gave us in our sleep.

    We consecrate our lives to You for this new day. Take us and use us as You will. We don’t want to make our own plans, for we are too short-sighted and would only plan for present comfort or earthly success. We would rather have You reveal Your plan for our day. It may not be easy, but we know it is wiser and better than our way could ever be, for You see the end from the beginning, and You choose the best things for us. We lay our plans at Your feet and ask You to use them if they are the best, but if not, to set them aside so that Your plan for the day may work unhindered in us.

    We pray for our neighbors. Some of them are sick. Remember them and grant them healing and restoration. Send them Your comfort in their pain, and let them be richly blessed by the experiences they are going through. Some of our neighbors have gone through sorrows. Heal their broken hearts and give them comfort that will make them stronger to bear their grief, and help them find the blessings You have hidden in their sorrow.

    Receive us now into Your care for this day; bless us, keep us, and use us as You will. We ask in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

    Good morning, brethren. 1. Morning devotion for today. MD.i. 😀🎀💝🎁🌺🌹 MORNING TEA THE WORD FOR TODAY FRIDAY JULY 24, 2O26. "DON'T LOOSE YOUR COMPASSIONATE EDGE (2)" '…Faith…if it does not have works, is dead.’  James 2:17 NKJV MOTHER TERESA said, ‘The biggest disease today isn’t leprosy or cancer. It’s the feeling of being uncared for, unwanted—of being deserted and alone.’ As a result, she spent her life rescuing sick babies and giving dignity to the dying. Asked why she did it, she replied, ‘Because Jesus did.’ What a great answer! When simultaneous disasters hit different countries around the world, humanitarian organisations say we suffer from ‘donor fatigue’. Let’s add one more: ‘compassion failure.’ Philosopher Miguel de Unamuno wrote, ‘Warmth, warmth, more warmth! For we are dying of cold and not of darkness. It is not the night that kills, but the frost.’ Think about this: of the 1,189 chapters in the Bible, 250 contain the words of the prophets. That’s roughly 25 percent. Half of what they say denounces sin and the other half condemns those who see human suffering and do nothing about it. Yet events that horrified those same prophets take place in our world every day, and we’re immune to them. Like wearing a watch, you get used to it and after a while you don’t even notice it. But the prophets noticed! They never became desensitised to sin—or human suffering. And you mustn’t either. You say, ‘But my main focus at the moment is on building up my faith.’ That’s a good thing; but never forget that ‘Faith by itself, if it does not have works [of compassion], is dead.’ Bible In A Year: Deut 3-4; Matt 12:1-14; Ps 46; Pro 16:20-22.

It may be that they had recorded successes in previous battles, or have become famous for their accomplishments. They may deem themselves to be invincible, and either declare a war that's totally unnecessary, or inject themselves into other people's battles. In the end, they become the victims of their ego and exaggerated sense of power and importance.* *This is what happened to the kings of the nations on the east of River Jordan. The children of Israel were on a journey ordered by the Almighty God. They were heading to the land of Canaan, in fulfilment of the promise God made to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Their land was not part of Canaan, and therefore, was not intended to be inherited by the Israelites. The inheritance of the Israelites was to be solely Canaan, the land flowing with milk and honey. But on their way, the Israelites encountered nations that had heard about the supernatural work of God in bringing them out of Egypt. Although the Israelites did not declare war against them, these nations, some out of unfounded fear of losing their territory, and others out of envy and hatred against this nation that had a God that can subdue, humble and defeat Egypt, the great world power of the time, took it on themselves to stop Israel from progressing towards their land of promise. One of such kings was Sihon, king of the Amorites, whose nation was mainly a lush vegetation sandwiched by rivers and plain land that was a haven for pastoralists and for other forms of agriculture. The other king was Og, king of Bashan, a land of the remnants of the giants, with similar topography as the land of the Amorites. When they rose against the Israelites, they were roundly defeated, their kingdoms destroyed and their land confiscated by Moses. He subsequently allocated the land to two and half tribes of Israel, which desired to settle there because it was suitable for their vocation as pastoralists. Had those nations stayed out of the way of the Israelites, they would have remained in their land.* *We must be wise and not take on battles that are not ours, whether out of sympathy with other people or to prove that we are powerful. As believers, we have more than enough battles against principalities and powers, rulers of the darkness of this world, spiritual wickedness in high places, against sin and Satan. The armour Christ has given us is intended to defeat these adversaries. It is not to be wasted on self-imposed battles that do not benefit the kingdom of God. Those who engage in the wrong battles suffer great loss, and live to regret it for the rest of their lives. Let us focus on the assignment Christ has given us, namely, taking the gospel to the world of sinners, and endeavouring to bring as many as are willing, into the kingdom of God.* ✍🏽```THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:``` _*Those who fight battles without profit, reap rewards without benefits.*_ 📜📜```THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:``` *EXODUS 26-29*📜📜 [23/07, 10:32 pm] Pastor Attah: ```DEEPER CHRISTIAN LIFE MINISTRY``` _*HIGHER EVERYD🅰️Y: (A DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE FOR YOUTHS)*_ ✍🏽👩🏻‍💼🌻 🍇🙏🏽🛰🚀🔬📚 ```FRIDAY 24TH JULY, 2026``` *DIVINE FRESHNESS* 🎚️📓📖🫵🏽🙋🏽‍♂️🙋🏽‍♀️✨🧎🏽🧎🏽‍♀️🙏🏽🙌🏽 📜📜```TEXT:PSALM 1:1-6```📜📜 📖``` MEMORY VERSE:``` _*"And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper" (PSALM 1:3).*_ *Freshness implies newness of life, originality, and the absence of weakness or death.

    Bonjour à tous,

    En tant que leaders, bâtisseurs et créateurs, notre outil le plus précieux n'est ni notre logiciel ni notre stratégie, mais l'architecture de notre propre système nerveux. L'actualité scientifique de ce lundi 6 juillet 2026 met en lumière des découvertes fascinantes qui prouvent à quel point la sagesse biblique millénaire était en réalité le tout premier manuel d'ingénierie humaine.

    𝐋𝐞 « 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 » : 𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐚 𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐞 𝐞́𝐭𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐥'𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧
    Le « grounding » (ou ancrage par le sol) démontre que notre physiologie est intimement liée à la matière originelle dont nous avons été formés. Comme le confirment les recherches publiées dans Frontiers, le contact physique direct avec la terre permet un transfert d'électrons qui neutralise les radicaux libres, régulant ainsi le tonus vagal et réduisant drastiquement l'inflammation systémique. Cette réalité biologique fait puissamment écho à 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞̀𝐬𝐞 𝟐:𝟕, qui rappelle que « l'Éternel Dieu forma l'homme de la poussière de la terre ». Ce lien charnel est d'ailleurs magnifiquement illustré par la guérison de l'aveugle-né (𝐉𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝟗:𝟔), où Jésus utilise la boue pour restaurer la vue, soulignant que notre corps trouve souvent sa guérison dans un retour aux sources de la Création. En pratique, cette physiologie de l'incarnation nous invite à déconnecter pour mieux nous reconnecter : prenez le temps de marcher dans la nature et de retrouver ce contact physique avec la terre afin de décharger vos tensions accumulées et d'éteindre l'inflammation.

    𝐋𝐚 𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐞̀𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐞 : 𝐥'𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐞 𝐥'𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐭
    L'optimisation de nos capacités exécutives commence dès les premiers instants de la journée. Selon les données de Neuroscience News, l'exposition à la lumière naturelle dans l'heure suivant le réveil synchronise l'horloge circadienne, optimisant la libération de cortisol sain le matin et garantissant une meilleure production de mélatonine le soir, ce qui dissipe le brouillard cognitif. Cette mécanique de l'éveil résonne parfaitement avec le rythme du Christ dans 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐜 𝟏:𝟑𝟓 : « Vers le matin, pendant qu'il faisait encore très sombre, il se leva, et sortit pour aller dans un lieu désert, où il pria. » En cherchant la présence divine aux premières lueurs de l'aube, il alignait sa physiologie humaine avec sa mission spirituelle pour s'assurer une clarté totale. En pratique, sanctuarisez votre réveil : arrêtez de consulter vos écrans au saut du lit et exposez directement vos yeux à la lumière naturelle pour garantir votre lucidité décisionnelle du jour.

    𝐋𝐚 𝐜𝐨-𝐫𝐞́𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 : 𝐧𝐨𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐬 𝐛𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚̀ 𝐥'𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐧
    Notre paix intérieure possède un pouvoir de résonance direct et physique sur ceux qui nous entourent. Les études relayées par The Transmitter sur la neurobiologie interpersonnelle montrent que lors d'un échange authentique en face-à-face, les variabilités des fréquences cardiaques des interlocuteurs se synchronisent physiquement, apaisant mutuellement leurs systèmes nerveux. Cette co-régulation biologique s'illustre merveilleusement lors de la rencontre entre Marie et 𝐄́𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐡 (𝐋𝐮𝐜 𝟏:𝟒𝟏) : « Dès qu'Élisabeth entendit la salutation de Marie, son enfant tressaillit dans son sein. » Leurs corps et esprits s'accordent instantanément, la présence habitée de l'une régulant la physiologie de l'autre. En pratique, souvenez-vous que votre stress est contagieux, mais que votre paix l'est tout autant : en tant que leader, cultiver un système nerveux apaisé permet de réguler littéralement celui de vos équipes face à l'adversité.

    𝐋𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐢𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐱𝐚𝐥 : 𝐥𝐚 𝐦𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐚̀ 𝐥𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐬
    Le véritable renouvellement de notre esprit nécessite souvent un abandon total de notre contrôle. Comme l'expliquent les recherches publiées par le Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), c'est pendant la phase de sommeil paradoxal (REM) que le cerveau retraite les souvenirs émotionnels intenses, mais en bloquant totalement la sécrétion de noradrénaline, l'hormone du stress. Cette thérapie nocturne, qui désarme littéralement nos peurs, fait écho à la grâce décrite dans le 𝐏𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐦𝐞 𝟏𝟐𝟕:𝟐 : « Il en donne autant à ses bien-aimés pendant leur sommeil. » C'est d'ailleurs en plongeant Adam dans un profond sommeil que Dieu façonne Ève, prouvant que les transformations les plus profondes s'opèrent quand nous acceptons de lâcher prise. En pratique, sanctuarisez votre repos : le manque de sommeil n'est jamais une preuve de dévouement, c'est un sabotage neuro-cognitif qui vous prive de votre capacité naturelle à digérer votre charge allostatique.

    𝐋'𝐞́𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐥'𝐞𝐠𝐨
    La contemplation de ce qui nous dépasse est le remède le plus immédiat contre nos obsessions anxieuses. Selon les travaux de l'UCSF Neurosciences, expérimenter le sentiment d'émerveillement face à l'immensité désactive instantanément l'activité du cortex préfrontal médian, réduisant drastiquement l'importance accordée à nos problèmes personnels et relativisant notre ego. C'est exactement l'expérience neurologique du roi David dans le 𝐏𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐦𝐞 𝟖:𝟑-𝟒 : « Quand je contemple les cieux, ouvrage de tes mains... Qu'est-ce que l'homme, pour que tu te souviennes de lui ? » Face à l'univers, ses ruminations de souverain disparaissent au profit d'une humilité joyeuse. En pratique, si vous tournez en rond sur une difficulté ou un blocage stratégique, sortez et contemplez l'immensité du ciel : cet émerveillement redimensionnera vos angoisses et débloquera votre capacité d'innovation.

    𝐋𝐞𝐬 𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐬 : 𝐥'𝐞𝐱𝐜𝐫𝐞́𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐝𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐟𝐟𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬
    La tristesse assumée n'est pas une faiblesse émotionnelle, c'est un mécanisme de détoxification du corps. La biochimie relayée par NCBI - National Center for Biotechnology Information révèle que les larmes émotionnelles contiennent des niveaux élevés d'hormones de stress (comme l'ACTH) ainsi qu'un analgésique naturel (la leucine enképhaline). Pleurer agit donc comme une véritable fonction d'excrétion biologique. Ce besoin physiologique est validé par l'humanité du Christ en 𝐉𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝟏𝟏:𝟑𝟓, le verset le plus court et le plus vulnérable face à la tombe de Lazare : « Jésus pleura. » Retenir ses larmes revient littéralement à s'intoxiquer de son propre stress. En pratique, ne sous-estimez jamais le poids physiologique de vos peines : autorisez-vous à utiliser cette soupape, car accepter ses émotions est la première preuve d'une haute intelligence adaptative.

    𝐋𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐟 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐛𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐝𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐞𝐮𝐫
    L'unité d'un groupe dépasse la simple adhésion intellectuelle pour s'inscrire au cœur de nos rythmes biologiques. Les recherches publiées dans Frontiers expliquent que chanter en groupe exige une respiration synchronisée qui aligne la variabilité de la fréquence cardiaque de tous les participants, créant un véritable « super-organisme » connecté. Cette puissance neuro-acoustique prend tout son sens en 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝟏𝟔:𝟐𝟓 : « Vers le milieu de la nuit, Paul et Silas priaient et chantaient les louanges de Dieu. » Au cœur de leur prison, l'utilisation de leur voix dans un chant commun repousse la panique et déclenche une force qui ébranle leurs chaînes. En pratique, comprenez que les rituels collectifs et la vision partagée d'une équipe (« parler d'une seule voix ») ne sont pas que des mots : ce sont des synchronisateurs biologiques indispensables pour forger votre résilience.

    𝐋𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐮𝐞𝐥 : 𝐥'𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐝𝐞 𝐥𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞
    Le lien de confiance le plus profond se tisse dans la vulnérabilité de la rencontre des regards. Selon MDPI, un contact visuel soutenu et bienveillant court-circuite l'amygdale (le centre de la peur) et stimule les réseaux de neurones miroirs, inondant le cerveau d'ocytocine, l'hormone de l'attachement. Cette réalité neurologique illumine la majestueuse bénédiction sacerdotale de 𝐍𝐨𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝟔:𝟐𝟓 : « L'Éternel fasse luire sa face sur toi, et t'accorde sa grâce ! » Rechercher le regard divin, c'est désirer cette connexion ininterrompue qui bannit toute peur de l'abandon. En pratique, pour instaurer un climat de sécurité psychologique dans vos projets, privilégiez toujours les échanges en face-à-face et le contact visuel direct ; c'est le canal le plus rapide pour désamorcer les méfiances et bâtir des fondations humaines solides.

    𝐋𝐞 𝐣𝐞𝐮̂𝐧𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐞 𝐥𝐚 𝐧𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐞̀𝐬𝐞
    La clarté de l'esprit s'aiguise souvent par la privation volontaire. Les données de Nature Neuroscience et Nature Portfolio confirment que le jeûne déclenche la production de BDNF, une protéine qui stimule la création de nouveaux neurones et augmente de façon spectaculaire la réceptivité mentale. C'est l'exacte préparation du Christ avant d'entamer sa mission en 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐮 𝟒:𝟐 : « Après avoir jeûné quarante jours et quarante nuits, il eut faim. » Ce jeûne n'est pas une simple mortification, c'est une optimisation radicale pour acquérir la lucidité nécessaire face aux illusions du désert. En pratique, lorsque vous devez trancher des décisions complexes, imposez-vous des temps de privation volontaire (qu'il s'agisse de nourriture, de dopamine numérique ou d'hyper-connexion) : ce vide délibéré créera l'espace dont votre cerveau a besoin pour retrouver sa clairvoyance.

  • St. Thomas the Apostle

    St. Thomas was one of the apostles of Jesus and he was also called \'Doubting Thomas\'. Even though St. Thomas entertained doubt about any miracle that happened without his presence, he was a very staunch believer of Christ. One day when Jesus was preparing to go to Judea to see the ailing Lazarus and other apostles advised Jesus not to go to Judea as the Jews may again stone Jesus, St. Thomas only said \'Let us go, that we may die with him\' (John11:16). St. Thomas is said to be the only witness to the Assumption of Holy Virgin Mary into heaven. When the Holy Mary died, St. Thomas was held up elsewhere in missionary work but after her burial St. Thomas was taken to her tomb, where he witnessed her bodily assumption into heaven and she dropped her Girdle to St. Thomas. Other apostles did not believe the bodily assumption of Holy Mary into heaven as told by St. Thomas until they saw the empty tomb and the girdle of Virgin Mary. Tradition says St. Thomas landed at the ancient port of Muzris, in Kodungalloor, in the Malabar Coast in India, at about 52 A.D. with the main intention of preaching the gospel to the Jews who lived there. When Jesus said during the discourse in the Last Supper that He was going to prepare a place for them (apostles), St. Thomas raised a doubt \'Lord, we know not where you go, and how can we know the way?\'. Jesus then declared \'I am the way, truth and life\' (John 14:1\-6). Only due to the doubt raised by St. Thomas, Jesus declared to the mankind that He is the only way to go to heaven for any one. When other apostles announced the resurrection of Jesus, St. Thomas said \'Except I shall see in His hands the print of the nails and put my finger into the place of the nails and put my hand into His side, I will not believe\' (John 20:25). But when Jesus appeared after eight days and gently rebuked St. Tomas for his disbelief, Thomas Knelt down and said \'My Lord, My God\'. St. Tomas was also one of the seven apostles who were fishing on the Sea of Galilee, when Jesus appeared to them. St. Thomas was killed by piercing his body with a spear on December 21, 72 near Chennai, Tamil Nadu India.

    TITLE: "Serving God with Excellence and Diligence"

    ANCHOR SCRIPTURE(S)

    Ecclesiastes 9:10 (KJV) "Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest."

    Colossians 3:23 (KJV) "And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;"

    QUOTE TO REFLECT ON

    "Excellence is worship when every task is done wholeheartedly for the glory of God."

    DAY'S REFLECTION

    Every day presents opportunities to serve God through the work He has entrusted to us. Whether in ministry, business, teaching, parenting, farming, or any other vocation, God values not only what we do but also the attitude with which we do it.

    Solomon encourages us to do whatever our hands find to do with all our might. This is a call to diligence, commitment, and excellence. Life is a gift with limited time, and each day offers an opportunity to make a meaningful impact before our earthly assignment is complete.

    Paul adds another important perspective: our work should be done heartily, as unto the Lord and not merely to impress people. This transforms ordinary tasks into acts of worship. A teacher preparing lessons with care, a carpenter crafting quality furniture, a minister preaching faithfully, or a student studying diligently can all glorify God through their work.

    Consider a mason building a house. If he cuts corners because the owner is absent, the building may later develop dangerous cracks. However, if he works with integrity and excellence, the structure will stand the test of time. Likewise, when we remember that God sees every effort, we are motivated to give our very best, even when no one else is watching.

    Today, approach every responsibility with diligence, integrity, and joy. Your work is more than a duty—it is an opportunity to honour God and bless others.

    MEDITATION SCRIPTURE(S) WITH FULL VERSES

    Proverbs 14:23 (KJV) "In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury."

    1 Corinthians 10:31 (KJV) "Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God."

    LIFE LESSONS (IMPLICATIONS)

    1. Every task deserves your best effort.

    2. Work done for God's glory has eternal value.

    3. Excellence reflects integrity and godly character.

    4. Diligence opens doors to greater opportunities.

    5. God rewards faithfulness, even in ordinary responsibilities.

    EVERYDAY ACTION:

    Complete today's work with excellence.

    Avoid procrastination and carelessness.

    Serve others with integrity and joy.

    Offer every task to God in prayer.

    PRAYER

    Heavenly Father, help me to serve You faithfully in all I do. Give me a diligent spirit and a heart that seeks to glorify You through my work. In Jesus' name, Amen.

    DECLARATION

    I will work with excellence and integrity. My labour brings glory to God.
    I serve the Lord with all my heart. My hands are blessed and fruitful. Everything I do will reflect God's excellence.

    Devotion by

  • Good morning, brethren.
    1. Morning devotion for today.

    MD.i. MORNING TEA.
    THE WORD FOR TODAY FRIDAY JUNE 12, 2026.

    "COOL THOUGHT FOR HOTHEADS (1)"

    '...A hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin.’   Proverbs 29:22 NLT

    RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION is the capacity to get aroused when it matters. When you see people mistreated and don’t feel concerned, you’re either in denial or lacking compassion. God designed anger to move us to action. The Bible says, ‘…God is angry with the wicked every day’ (Psalms 7:11 NKJV); it motivates His actions against man’s wickedness. When Jesus saw His Father’s house being desecrated His anger drove Him to make a whip, overthrow the money tables and chase out the loan sharks. His ‘…Passion for God’s house [consumed Him]’ (John 2:17 NLT). He couldn’t remain passive or compromise. The world needs people who’ll take action when the weak and vulnerable are ‘used and abused’. Hot temper, however, isn’t the fruit of godly motivation. It’s driven by our lower nature. Like Balaam who got angry when he was challenged by the truth, our pride gets hurt (Numbers 22:29). Or like Cain, who was jealous because his brother’s gift was accepted and his wasn’t, we get resentful when someone else seems blessed more than us (Genesis 4:3-7). Like Haman, who was enraged that Mordecai wouldn’t bow before him, we selfishly desire to have our way (Esther 3:1-6). Like King Saul, who was envious over David’s popularity, we get jealous when someone else has accomplished more than us (1 Samuel 18:8). Like King Ahab, who was confronted with the truth he’d rather not hear, we refuse to face our sinful ways and failures (1 Kings 22:15-27). The Bible cautions us: ‘If you are angry, be sure it is not a sinful anger…don’t give the devil that sort of foothold’ (Ephesians 4:26-27 PHPS).

    MD.ii. FAITH FOR TODAY

    "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in Me will never die. Do you believe this?" - John 11:25-26

    In John 11 we read about Lazarus from Bethany and his sisters Maria and Martha. Lazarus was sick and there was no hope for him to get well. The sisters had sent a message to Jesus, who was a good friend of theirs, but Jesus stayed away for two more days and did not immediately respond to the message.

    Faith for yesterday

    When Jesus finally arrives, Lazarus already died. The first thing Martha says then is: 'if You had been here, my brother would not have died.' Do you know what this means? Martha had faith for yesterday when there was still hope and life. But now all her hope was gone.

    Faith for the future

    Jesus says then; 'Your brother will rise again' and Marta responds: 'I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.' This shows that Martha also had faith for the future. She had faith for yesterday; the past. She had faith for the future, but she didn't have faith for today. Jesus then says these wonderful words to Martha: 'I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in Me will never die. Do you believe this?'

    Faith for today

    Let's have faith for today! Believe that what He did yesterday and what He will do tomorrow, He can also do it today. No matter how big your problem is, no matter how dark it may look to you, think about what Jesus said. People are often sad, they feel miserable and see no way out because they forgot about the words of Jesus. Let us remind ourselves of His words. Get to know His Word. 'Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever' (Hebrews 13:8).

    2. Morning Prayer for today.

    MP.i. Morning Prayer

    I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, ⏤ Ephesians 4:1

    Prayer is not overcoming God’s reluctance, but laying hold of His willingness. ⏤ Martin Luther

    O Jesus, You have called us with a holy calling. We desire to be worthy of the honor You have bestowed upon us. You have redeemed us by Your blood. You have taken us into fellowship with Yourself. You are not ashamed to call us brethren. You have made us heirs of God, joint heirs with You. You have given us eternal life!

    Make us indeed worthy of this exalted honor. Cleanse and purify us, that we may be like You in spirit, disposition, and character. Give us the same desires that are in Your heart, that we may hate what You hate and love what You love. May we be partakers in Your work for the upbuilding of Your cause and the extension of Your kingdom.

    Give us this day the same mind that was in You. You left Your heavenly glory and became human, that You might be our Redeemer. You lived to serve, giving out Your life in unsparing service, even dying in love for Your people. We desire to have the same spirit. Save us from all selfishness, which would lead us to withhold ourselves from serving others with the best that is in us. Save us from all pride, which would lead us to think of ourselves more highly than we ought to think, and may we always be clothed with humility. Lead us into Your ways of service.

    Lord Jesus, help us to live this day as You would live if You were here in our place. May we be holy, harmless, undefiled, and separate from sinners. May we be kind in all our family relationships and with those outside. Help us to be diligent in all our business. May we live unspotted from the world. Bless us in all ways in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
