Text: Psalm 119:89

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

The sixth ingredient of spiritual wrestling is Loyalty to God’s Word. In every battle, the strength of your stance depends on the foundation beneath your feet. For the believer, that foundation is the unchanging, unshakable Word of God.

When Jesus faced temptation in the wilderness, He triumphed not with emotion, but with the written Word:

“It is written…” (Matthew 4:4–10). Each declaration of Scripture dismantled the enemy’s lie and enforced divine truth. True spiritual wrestlers do not fight with opinions, feelings, or arguments — they stand firm on “Thus saith the Lord.”

The psalmist affirms in Psalm 119:105: “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” God’s Word gives direction in the dark, clarity amid confusion, and power over the adversary.

Also, Hebrews 4:12 reminds us that: “The word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword.” This means every time you speak the Word in faith, you release divine power that cuts through resistance and brings alignment with God’s will.

Beloved, loyalty to the Word means more than quoting Scripture — it means living by it, trusting it, and obeying it even when it’s not convenient. The Word is your weapon, your shield, and your anchor. Every lasting victory in spiritual warfare is born out of steadfast confidence in what God has said.

Prayer Nugget: Father, help me to build my life on your Word. Let your truth dwell richly in my heart and guide my every step in Jesus’ name.

Text: Psalm 91:1-16

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Welcome to the eleventh month of the year – a month of divine protection and fulfillment.
I pray that throughout this month, and in the remaining days of this year, the Almighty God will protect you and your household from every arrow of the wicked. No evil shall befall you, and no plague shall come near your dwelling, in the mighty name of Jesus.

If God could create the heavens and the earth in just six days, then the remaining sixty-one days of this year are more than enough for Him to rewrite your story for the best!

Beloved, be watchful and vigilant. Be more sensitive, prayerful, and intentional in your walk with God.

Draw closer to Him like never before, and you will see Him frustrate every plan of the enemy and bring His precious promises to pass in your life in Jesus’ name.

Bible in One Year:  John 9–10

Text: Luke 18:1-8

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

The fifth ingredient in the spiritual wrestling journey is Tenacity — the steadfast determination to keep praying, believing, and standing until the promise becomes reality.

Our Lord Jesus Christ introduced the parable of the persistent widow in Luke 18:1–8, teaching that, “Men ought always to pray, and not to faint.” The widow’s unwavering insistence moved even an unjust judge to act. How much more will a righteous God respond to His children who refuse to give up in prayer!

Tenacity is the attitude of Jacob in Genesis 32:26 when he declared, “I will not let Thee go, except Thou bless me.”

After a severe drought and famine that lasted for three and half years, Elijah prayed seven times for rain — not once, not twice, but until he saw a tiny cloud as evidence that God had answered- 1 Kings 18:41–44.

This holy determination attracts divine intervention. Heaven responds to those who cling to God in faith, refusing to be discouraged by delay or silence.

Paul expressed this same spiritual grit in Galatians 6:9: “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

Tenacity is that inner refusal to quit before the breakthrough. It is the decision to keep fighting, keep believing, and keep declaring until the victory is seen.

Beloved, the strength of your spiritual life is measured by how long you can persist when nothing seems to change. Tenacity is not stubbornness of the flesh; it is steadfastness of the spirit. Those who hold on in faith will always see the faithfulness of God.

Prayer Nugget: Father, give me unwavering tenacity in the place of prayer. Strengthen my faith to hold on until your promises manifest in Jesus name.

Text: James 4:7

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

The fourth ingredient in the spiritual wrestling series is Submission — the act of yielding completely to God’s authority and will.

In spiritual warfare, victory begins with surrender. Many try to resist the devil without first submitting to God, and they wonder why the battle feels unending. The order in James 4:7 is divine: Submit to God first, then resist the devil. Submission empowers resistance; rebellion weakens it.

True submission is not weakness — it is alignment. When you come under God’s authority, His power flows through you. Our Lord Jesus Christ demonstrated perfect submission in Luke 22:42 when he prayed saying, “Father, if Thou be willing, remove this cup from Me: nevertheless not My will, but Thine, be done.”

That moment of surrender became the turning point for humanity’s redemption.

Submission means saying, “Yes, Lord,” even when your flesh wants to say no. It is trusting God’s wisdom above your understanding. It is laying down your agenda so that His purpose can prevail.

1 Peter 5:6 reinforces this truth: “Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time.” When you submit, God lifts you. When you yield, He shields you. When you surrender, He empowers you to overcome.

Beloved, spiritual wrestling is partnering with God through total surrender. Strength to resist darkness is born in submission. A yielded believer walks in an authority hell cannot withstand.

Prayer Nugget: Father, I surrender my will, my plans, and my desires to you. Teach me to walk in humility and total dependence on your Spirit in Jesus’ name.

Text: Matthew 24:13

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

The third ingredient in our journey through W.R.E.S.T.L.E is Endurance — the ability to remain steadfast under pressure until the will of God prevails. Other words for endurance are patience, fortitude and long-suffering.

Endurance is not just passive waiting; it is active persistence in faith. Jesus said, “He that endures to the end shall be saved” (Matthew 24:13). This means that true victory belongs not to the swift or the strong, but to those who refuse to give up, no matter how long the process takes.

Life’s battles are rarely won in one prayer or one day. There are seasons when heaven seems silent, and circumstances contradict the promises of God. In such moments, endurance becomes your anchor. Hebrews 12:1 admonishes: “Let us run with patience the race that is set before us.”

The race of faith is not a sprint; it is a marathon that demands perseverance, trust, and focus on the Author and Finisher of our faith.

The word of God encourages us in James 1:12, saying “Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love Him.”

Every season of endurance carries a hidden reward. When you hold on in faith, your trials refine you, your prayers deepen, and your character matures. Beloved, endurance does not mean denial — it means development. God is shaping you into a vessel of strength, stability, and glory. Stand firm, for those who endure will see the promise fulfilled.

Prayer Nugget: Father, grant me grace to endure the process without murmuring. Let patience have her perfect work in me until I obtain the victory you have prepared, in Jesus’ name.

Text: Ephesians 6:10

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

The second ingredient in our spiritual wrestling series is Resilience — the inner strength that refuses to give up, even when the battle rages long and hard.

The Apostle Paul charged believers to “be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.” This strength is not of human origin; it flows from deep communion with God. Spiritual resilience is forged in the furnace of prayer, patience, and perseverance.

In 2 Corinthians 4:8–9, Paul describes this divine toughness:

“We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.”
Such language reflects the heart of a spiritual wrestler — one who may bend but never breaks, one who may stumble but never surrenders.

Resilience in prayer means holding on when answers delay. It is refusing to let temporary silence make you doubt eternal promises. In Hebrews 10:36, the word of God says,

“For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.”

The resilient believer does not draw back; he digs deeper. When faith is tested, resilience keeps you standing. When hope wanes, resilience reignites it. When battles seem endless, resilience whispers, “Press on — victory is near.”

Beloved, in this spiritual contest, your endurance is proof of your maturity. God is not looking for faint-hearted warriors but for those who can stand firm in His strength until His glory is revealed.

Prayer Nugget: Father, please, fill me with inner strength by your Spirit. When trials come, help me not to faint or give up. Strengthen me to stand firm in your will until victory is complete, in Jesus’ name.

Bible in One Year: Luke 21-24

Date: Monday, 27th October, 2025

Text: Matthew 26:41

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

As established yesterday, every believer is called into the ministry of spiritual wrestling. We are not wrestling against flesh and blood (human beings) but against spiritual forces that resist the will of God. Victory in this contest comes through the right spiritual posture — captured in the acronym W.R.E.S.T.L.E.

Today’s focus begins with the first ingredient: Watchfulness.

To watch is to stay spiritually awake, alert, and discerning. Jesus commanded, “Watch and pray, that you enter not into temptation.” (Matthew 26:41). A careless believer is an easy target for the enemy, but a watchful believer detects and destroys his schemes before they take root.

Paul echoed this same charge in 1 Corinthians 16:13 (KJV): “Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.” Watchfulness is therefore not passive observation — it is active readiness, sustained by prayer and anchored in faith.

Peter also warned, “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” — 1 Peter 5:8. When you stay awake in the Spirit, you become untouchable in the battle.

Watchfulness keeps your heart aligned with heaven and your spirit tuned to divine signals. It helps you perceive what God is doing and discern what the enemy is plotting. Many spiritual defeats begin in the place of distraction; many victories begin in the place of alertness.

Beloved, spiritual warfare is not won by strength but by sensitivity. Stay awake, stay discerning, and stay prayerful. The vigilant soul is the victorious soul.

Prayer Nugget: Father, awaken my spirit from slumber. Make me sensitive to your voice and alert against every device of the enemy in Jesus name.

Text: Colossians 4:12

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Epaphras was a man who understood that prayer is not a casual exercise but a spiritual contest. Paul described him as one who “always wrestled in prayer,” interceding fervently for believers to stand firm and mature in God’s will.

True prayer demands persistence, focus, and spiritual strength. Like Epaphras, we are called to wrestle in prayer until Heaven’s will prevails on Earth. This is not wrestling against God, but partnering with Him to enforce His plans against the resistance of darkness.

Wrestling demands resilience, toughness, and spiritual tenacity. A wrestler doesn’t enter the ring for a show; he enters with focus, readiness, and the determination to win. Likewise, as believers, we are called to stand strong in the Lord, fully equipped with the armor of God, for our battle is spiritual, not physical.

Every believer is called to this ministry of spiritual wrestling — to labor in intercession until change comes. Our victory is born and reinforced in the place of prayer and worship, for “the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much” (James 5:16).

Beloved, rise above casual prayer. Take your place as a spiritual wrestler. When you persist in prayer, chains break, heavens open, and God’s power is revealed.

Prayer Nugget: Father, ignite in me the spirit of fervent intercession. Make me a spiritual wrestler like Epaphras, standing strong in prayer until Your will is done on Earth, in Jesus’ name.

Text: Ephesians 6:13

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

In every spiritual battle, victory is not for the fainthearted but for those who stand firm. The Bible does not tell us to run from the fight but to “stand.” Three times in Ephesians 6, Paul repeats this command — “stand,” “withstand,” and “stand therefore.” It is a call to steadfastness, not surrender.

Many begin the Christian journey with zeal, but when opposition comes, their faith wavers. Yet, the true test of spiritual maturity is not how loud we shout in victory, but how firmly we stand in adversity. When storms rage, when prayers seem delayed, when temptations persist — will you still stand?

Standing your ground means refusing to yield to fear or compromise. It means holding fast to the truth of God’s Word even when circumstances contradict it. It means guarding your heart, keeping your confession of faith, and trusting that God’s strength is made perfect in weakness.

Remember, the enemy’s aim is to move you out of position. If he can shake your confidence in God, he can weaken your resistance. But when you stand — clothed in righteousness, anchored in faith, and grounded in the Word — he must flee.

Beloved, do not fight in your own strength. Stand in the Lord’s might. When you’ve done all — prayed, believed, resisted — then keep standing. Your steadfastness is a declaration that Christ’s victory is your victory.

Standing firm is not passive — it is powerful faith in action. Stay rooted, stay unshaken, and watch God fight for you.

Prayer Nugget: Father, help me to stand firm in every trial. When the battle grows fierce, keep me steadfast and unmovable in faith. Let me never retreat, but always stand in victory, in Jesus’ mighty name.

Text: 2 Corinthians 10:6

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Every great victory in Scripture was born out of obedience. When Joshua marched around Jericho, it was not military strategy that brought the walls down — it was obedience to a divine instruction. When Peter cast his net at Jesus’ word, it was obedience that turned failure into abundance.

Many believers desire victory, yet they resist the very commands that would lead them there. Spiritual battles are not always won by strength, but by surrender — not by fighting harder, but by following God’s voice more closely.

Obedience aligns you with divine power. It positions you where God’s hand can work freely. Every act of obedience is an act of warfare — it silences the enemy and invites heaven’s intervention. The devil thrives where disobedience reigns, but he loses ground where believers walk in submission to God’s Word.

The Bible says, “Having in readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled” (2 Corinthians 10:6). That means obedience completes your authority in spiritual warfare. You cannot command what you refuse to obey.

Beloved, God is not just looking for mighty warriors, but obedient soldiers. The victory you seek may be waiting on the instruction you have delayed. Don’t argue — act. Don’t hesitate — obey. Each step of obedience builds spiritual momentum, and soon, what once resisted you will bow before you.

Victory is not in shouting louder, but in obeying faster. Every act of obedience weakens the enemy’s hold and strengthens your position in Christ.

Prayer Nugget: Father, teach me the power of obedience. Help me to hear your voice clearly and follow promptly. Break every resistance in me that delays your will in Jesus name
