Text:  Joel 2:28-29

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

We are clearly in the Last Days and the devil is playing his last set of evil cards because he knows that his time. The enemy of man’s soul has poured the spirit of coldness (doubt and outright unbelief) into the air. That is why you see so much apathy and disinterest in the things of God.

Souls that used to be hot for God are now guilty of what they used to preach against. They are like a dog that has returned to its vomit.

The enemy has equally poured the spirit of lukewarmness into the lives of so many. That is why you see so many souls having the form of godliness but lacking the power behind it. In other words outwardly they look religious but their conduct nullifies their claim of faith.

The spirit of lukewarmness is also the reason why we have a lot of half-baked Christians who are neither here nor there; they look half spiritual and half worldly. God is not pleased with such people. You should either be cold, that is, completely worldly so that God will see your sincerity and save your soul or be completely hot so that God can know you are on his side and can then use you to save others.

Enough of coldness or lukewarmness!

This year you need to ask God to fill you with his Holy Spirit so that there is no room for the flesh to show up at all.

The word of God promised us saying, “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:

And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.” Joel 2:28-29

Ask the Lord to fulfill his promise of this spiritual outpouring of the Holy Spirit in your life and this year you will never remain the same again.

Prayer Nugget: Father, please, fill me a fresh with your Holy Spirit; I will give no room for sin or the flesh in my life in Jesus name.

Bible In One Year: Genesis 13-17

Date: Friday, 3^rd January, 2025

Text:  Genesis 1:1-31

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

To reflect is to think deeply or carefully about something. It could also mean to review what you have done.

When God undertook the project of creating the Heavens and the Earth, he kept assessing and reassessing the situation from time to time. At his stage of the Creation Story, God did reflect on the works of his hands to determine areas that need perfection, if need be.

Between verses one and thirty one of the first chapter of Genesis, God reflected, assessed and re-assessed the project he was doing 7 times. On the seventh time the word of God says, “And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good…” Genesis 1:31

God is perfect; he cannot make mistakes. His works don’t need any form of improvement. However, he reflected on his works to give us an example of the need to constantly reflect and re-strategize.

In Southwest Nigeria, where I hail from, the elders have a proverb which says, “When a youth stumbles and falls, he looks forward. Upon the fall of an elder, he looks back’. In other words, when a youth loses his balance and stumbles, his instinct is to look forward to where he wants to go and try to regain his footing. However, an elder often more concerned about the potential causes of his fall, might instinctively look back at the source of the stumble to assess the situation so as to prevent a recurrence.

Many people have remained on one spot because they keep doing things the same way without an attitude of reflection. When you think deeply and evaluate your situation, you will definitely spot an area that needs improvement.

You should not keep doing things the same way and expect a different result. Reflect and prayerfully re-plan and re-strategize. This year don’t be afraid to try new things; don’t shy away from exploring new territories and breaking new grounds; don’t hesitate to prayerfully try new methods. You will do great things this year in Jesus name.

Prayer Nugget: Father, I receive the spirit of prudence and excellence, I receive the grace to reflect, re-strategize and do exploits this year in Jesus name.

Bible in One Year: Genesis 9-12

Text:  1 Kings 18:41-46

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

May be before now things have been so slow and you have experienced so much stagnancy and delay, I have got good news for you, this year God will grant you unusual speed in Jesus name.

According to today’s text, Elijah the prophet who walked on foot overtook Ahab a king who moved on a chariot. How is this ever possible? It is possible when the miracle working God is involved. With him all things are possible.

The Holy Scripture says, “And the hand of the Lord was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.”  1 Kings 18:46

The hand of God signifies power. It carries supernatural strength beyond human comprehension. When the hand of God is upon your life you become unstoppable. No demon in hell can stop or slow you down anymore.

When your journey is powered by the hand of God, you will gain unusual spiritual momentum and your movement will be extraordinarily fast. This will be your testimony this year in Jesus name.

However, just like Elijah, make sure you are on the Lord’s side, loving what he loves and hating what he hates and obeying him promptly. Continually ask the Lord to lay his victorious right hand on you and you will overtake kings.

Prayer Nugget: Father, please, lay your victorious right hand on my life and grant me unusual speed this year in Jesus name.

Bible in One Year: Genesis 5-8

Date: Wednesday, 1^st January, 2025

Text:  Exodus 19:3-5

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

If a man decides to travel a journey of 2000 kilometers on a motorcycle and another chooses to go via airplane, both of them will eventually reach their destinations but their time of arrival would be different. The former would be worn out and stressed out while the latter would be fresh on arrival.

In this New Year I pray for you that you will achieve great things with ease in Jesus name. What others struggle to get would be delivered to you on the platter of mercy and ease. When others say things are difficult your testimony would be that things are easy. When they say there is a casting down, you will say that there is a lifting up in Jesus name.

However, for this to happen, you need to climb on the Eagle’s Wings of the Most High.

According to today, s text, after their miraculous deliverance from the cruel slavery of the Egyptians, Moses went up unto God, and the Lord called to him out of the mountain, saying, “Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel; Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles’ wings, and brought you unto myself.” Exodus 19:3-4

The mighty deliverance across the Red Sea was metaphorically described as a flight on Eagle’s wings- a supernatural intervention beyond human ability and comprehension. This would be your experience in the New Year in Jesus name.

God will favour you in the New Year and treat you as a Spiritual VIP (Very Important Person). The Most High told Moses in the 5^th verse of Exodus 19 saying, “Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:”

Determine to keep the Covenant of God in this New Year by obeying his word and doing his will. Up, up you will go; you will never come down in Jesus name.

Happy New Year!

Prayer Nugget: Father, thank you for your purpose of carrying me on Eagle’s wings this year. I will cooperate with you in obedience in Jesus name.

Text:  Psalm 91:1-16

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

The few hours left in this year shall be filled with God’s supernatural presence and grace in  Jesus name. All your blessings left in this year will not elude you in Jesus name. Every satanically manipulated calamity against you will not see the light of the day. Every last minute disaster planned against you and your family will be averted in the name of Jesus Christ.

The snare of the enemy against you is broken and you have escaped in Jesus name- Psalm 124:1-7. Anyone who has dug a pit against you will fall into it; every tongue that rises up against you in judgment shall be permanently silenced and condemned in Jesus name.

Every arrow of the evil one sent against you shall boomerang back to the sender in Jesus name. Surely they will gather but anyone that gathers against you shall scatter for your sake in Jesus name- Isaiah 54:15-17.

Let God arise and let his enemies in your life be scattered in Jesus name. Let the fire that goes before his presence consume all your enemies round about in Jesus name- Psalm 97:3

A thousand may fall at your left side and ten thousand at your right hand but no evil shall befall you and no plague shall come near your dwelling in Jesus name-Psalm 91:7.

Every stubborn problem in your life will bow to the authority of the blood of Jesus. Happy New Year in advance!

Prophetic Nugget: You will cross over into the New Year in peace and not in pieces in Jesus name.

Text:  Genesis 17:1-10

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

When it was a year to the fulfillment of God’s long term promise in his life the Lord appeared to Abram and said unto him, “I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.” Genesis 17:1

Abram cooperated with God, he followed all instructions given to him in total obedience and God had no choice but to fulfill his 25-year old promise in his life.

God is about to fulfill his long-awaited promises in your life in the New Year but you have a part to play.

About sixteen years ago the Holy Spirit told me that he wanted to move in a mighty way in my life and the life of my fiancée (back then before we got married) but he warned that we were the only ones that could hinder him if we allowed secret sins. I relayed the message to my wife-to-be. And we both examined our lives and ensured holiness was our watchword.

The following year God indeed moved mightily as he promised and our marital level changed permanently because we played our own part. The word of God says, “You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With the oil of gladness more than Your companions.” Hebrews 1:9

God wants to move in your life in the New Year but you need to examine your life, repent and forsake any secret sin.

The word of God says, “He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. “Proverbs 28:13. Again the scripture says, “If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.” Psalm 66:18

You are the only one that can hinder God’s move in your life in the New Year. Examine your self today and as you pray your way into the New Year, make the necessary adjustments in your life.

Action Nugget: Rededicate your heart to the Lord, he will do a new thing in your life and fulfill his long term promises in your life in Jesus name.

Text:  Exodus 33:11-23

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

By the power of his supernatural presence the children of Israel were delivered from a 430-year slavery from the terrible hand of a stubborn pharaoh (Exodus 1-14). There deliverance was possible through a lot of timely supernatural interventions.

However, at a point in their journey to the Promised Land the Israelites backslid into the sin of idolatry by creating and worshipping a golden calf (Exodus 32). At this time Moses was away on the mountain to receive the divine Code of Conduct (Ten Commandments) by which they were to live successfully as an independent nation.

God was very angry with them; in fact, angry enough to wipe them out of the surface of the earth; but, Moses stood in the gap.  God, therefore, concluded that he was going to withdraw his presence from them.

Moses understood the grave implication of this and so he pleaded with the lord saying, “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here. How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?” Exodus 33:15-16

One of the major distinguishing attributes that differentiates an unbeliever from a believer is the presence of God.

In the 14^th verse of Exodus 33, the Lord replied Moses saying , “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”

The presence of the Lord guarantees you victory and rest on all sides. As you prepare to cross over into the New Year, pray that his ever abiding presence will never depart from you and your family in Jesus name.

Prayer Nugget: Father, let your ever-abiding presence never depart from me; please, let me see your hand and glory in every area of my life as I cross over into the New Year in Jesus name.

Text:  Exodus 33:11-23

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

After spending time praising God you now need to ask for his mercy as you step into the New Year. Ask the Lord to open the door of mercy to you. His mercy triumphs over judgment. His mercy breaks protocols and delivers to you a blessing you are not qualified for.

On the basis of mercy you can ask God for very difficult things. In today’s text, Moses made a very hard request from the Lord. He asked to see God’s glory; in other words he asked to see the very face of the Most High. It was indeed a very hard request because no human can see his face and live. But on the basis of mercy God granted his request without allowing him to die.

The Lord told Moses, “I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.” Exodus 33:19b.When mercy appeared grace followed. I pray for you that you will enjoy the special grace of God in the New Year in Jesus name.

When God has mercy on you he will arise on your behalf and show you favour. The repentant thief on the Cross obtained forgiveness and the miracle of salvation by the mercies of God- Luke 23:32-43.  Blind Bartimaeus received his sight on the platter of mercy- Mark 10:46-52. The Ten Lepers regained their health because Christ showed them mercy- Luke 17:11-19

This season you need to approach the Throne of Grace so that you may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in this time of need- Hebrews 4:16b

Action Nugget: Cry to God for mercy ceaselessly and specify the particular areas you need his mercy in the New Year.

Text:  Psalm 100:4-5

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

There are many reasons why you need to pray our way into the New Year. The first reason is to give thanks to God for all he has done for you in the outgoing year. No matter what you have gone through this year, if you can think deeply you will realize that God has done so much for you.

The fact that you are still breathing shows that God has not given up on you. They say, “When there is life there is hope”. The word of God says, “There is hope for a tree:  If it is cut down, it will sprout again, and its new shoots will not fail. Its roots may grow old in the ground and its stump die in the soil, yet at the scent of water it will bud and put forth shoots like a plant.” Job 14:7-9

When you give thanks to God for the little, it becomes much. When you deliberately switch from complaining to praises, you are provoking God to turn your situation around for the best.

Even though you have been through pain, you still need to give thanks to God because weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning- Psalm 30:5. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations. Psalm 100:4b-5.

You should praise him for what he has done for you this year; for what he is doing and for what he has refused to do (because he has a better idea). Worship him for who he is.

Bless his holy name for his beautiful plans for you.  Godis saying to you, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11

Determine to cooperate with God by submitting your heart completely to Christ and resisting the devil through holy living. It shall be well with you in Jesus name.

Action Nugget: Praise him ceaselessly for his great plans for you in the New Year.

Text:  Isaiah 9:6-7

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Every blessing that the redemption package offers, places a responsibility on us as believers. For example, just as Christ forgave us, we are expected to forgive those that offend us.

Just as Christ bore our burdens we are expected to bear one another’s burdens- Galatians 6:2.

God first loved us and we are obligated to love him in return and to love our neighbours. The only debt we must continually owe our neighbour is the debt of love. 1 John 4:11.

Romans 13:8, which says, “Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law”.

The word of God also says, “Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? …..Let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” 1 John 3:16-18

He came to serve and sacrifice, so are we expected to do. We are called to serve and not to be served- Mark 10:45; Romans 12:1.

Jesus also said, “As the Father has sent me, I also send you.” John 20:21. Just as Christ was sent by the Father to preach the gospel of repentance, so are we saddled with the same responsibility. We are to go to the whole world and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that he has commanded us. Matthew 28:19-20

The above spiritual responsibilities were what Christ referred to when he said, “Take my yoke upon you and learn of me….. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:29-30

Prophetic Nugget: Receive the grace to fulfill all the spiritual responsibilities in Jesus name.
