Text: Psalm 127:3-5

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

I once heard a testimony shared by the renowned Christian Musician, Composer  and Pianist, Don Moen. He said when he was a child, the mother used to force him to take piano lessons. He never liked any part of it. When other children in the neighborhood were playing away their time, the mum scheduled him for music classes. As at that time, he didn’t find it funny, but he had no option than to comply.

He had to take piano lessons thirty minutes everyday for six years! His mum would say, “Donny, you wear the clothes we provide for you, you sleep in the bed we provide for you, you eat the food we provide for you, YOU WILL PLAY THE PIANO!”

He went ahead to become a household name all over the world being famous for his classic and inspirational Christian music. By the time he was sharing his testimony, he said, he wondered what he would be doing now if he didn’t know how to play the piano; he wished his mother had compelled him to study music harder.

As parents we need to study our children and know their areas of strengths. Prayerfully help them to develop their hidden talents and potentials. Deliberately create time for them; get involved in all their activities; carefully observe and probe to know what is going on in their lives in and out. Help them to set achievable goals and supervise them in ensuring success.

When you thus shoot your arrows in specific divinely led directions, then it will be said of you that “Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.” Psalm 127:5

Prophetic Nugget: Over your children, may you find great joy and fulfillment in Jesus name.

Text: Psalm 127:3-5

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

The word of God says, “Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.” Psalm 127:3-4

Arrows can be shot in different directions based on the will, purpose and discretion of the archer. In this case the parent is the archer while the child is the arrow. The arrow cannot direct itself; it strictly depends on the archer for directions.

Parenting is a serious work no parent can afford to joke with. As a parent your obligation is to shoot your arrows to specific directions. Unfortunately, many parents leave their own children to go to any direction they so desire or choose.

The truth is that if you don’t provide direction for your children someone else will and they will shoot them into their own selfish direction which may be disastrous.

The best direction you can shoot your children is God’s. In the first place, God owns them, so direct them back to him. The word of God says, “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6)

If you don’t shoot them in God’s direction, Satan and his agents will.

Children need our guidance and counselling as parents because we have the benefit of experience which they lack. They say, what an elder see sitting down, a child cannot see even if he climbs the tallest of trees.

Many children make irreparable errors because they don’t know what to do with their lives. Unfortunately, they were shot as arrows into the wrong directions by ungodly or careless parents. Make your own children a godly exception.

Prayer Nugget: Father, please, help me to shoot my arrows (children) in the right directions in Jesus name.

Bible in One Year: 1 Samuel 13-16

Text: Genesis 41:1-45

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Pharaoh, the king of Egypt got an uncommon revelation from the Most High. He subconsciously knew that the dreams had a great significance but he could not unravel the mystery behind it even after consulting with spiritists, diviners, magicians, witches, wizards and mediums.

God hid it from them because he wanted to use the situation to promote somebody who had been unjustly locked up in prison. I pray for you that, in order to promote you, God will cause a problem that will defy all solutions until you arrive at the scene in Jesus name.

The solution to the national problem was vested in Joseph, a slave boy who was unjustly imprisoned. Through him, Pharaoh, the king of Egypt was able to unravel the mystery and he knew ahead of time that there was going to be seven years of abundance in the world to be immediately followed by another seven years of famine. The famine was going to be so severe that the initial years of abundance would be forgotten.

This life-threatening problem was before the king and as the leader of the country he was meant to solve this impossible situation.

After Joseph successfully interpreted the king’s dream and provided solution, the word of God says, “And Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God? Genesis 41:38.

Pharaoh saw that such a solution could only have been divine. He discerned that the Spirit of God Almighty was at work. The king was wise enough to step aside and allow the great leader, Joseph, with the Spirit of God to lead the country. Joseph knew what to do to take advantage of the years of plenty and to avert the looming crises that would have swallowed the country and world.

Prophetic Nugget: I pray for you that in order to promote you, God will cause a problem that only you can solve in Jesus name.

Text: 1 Samuel 17:1-51

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

One of the major crises that has plunged the world into the current situation we find ourselves today is not poverty, illiteracy, sickness or insecurity but poor leadership. If leadership can be fixed, the other things will fall into place.

Just like the sheep needs the direction of the shepherd, leadership is about providing direction to a followership in need of it. The leader is the one saddled with the responsibility of creating a sense of purpose for his followers. He casts the vision that the followers run with. This means the leader cannot afford to be clueless. His body language can either make or mar those he leads.

In today’s text, we see that for 40 days Goliath threatened the army of Israel. The army generals were clueless and even the king Saul of Israel was crippled with fear. Nobody knew what to do to silence the adversary who kept cursing and terrorizing the nation for several weeks.

Nothing changed until the Lord brought David, a 17-year old shepherd boy, into the picture. By the inspiration of the Spirit of God, David knew exactly what to do in that ugly situation. He approached the king and asked for permission to confront the giant. They tried to dress him up in military uniform but he rejected it because he was not used to them. Rather he preferred to go simple.

The shame of Israel was removed and the Lord gained victory for the nation that day because someone took charge of the leadership.

The word of God says, “Where there is no vision [no revelation of God and His word], the people perish but happy and blessed is he who keeps the law [of God].” Proverbs 29:18

Prayer Nugget: Father, by your Spirit, please always help me to know what to do and to do it at the right time in Jesus name.

Text : John 16:12-15

Author : Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation :

Many times we find ourselves in puzzling situations where we tend to ask ourselves what the way forward is. A lot of times many get stuck at this junction not knowing what do.

For instance, someone who is hooked on drugs might not even like the outcome of his own life. He might even be counting his losses but still can’t help himself to get out of that situation.

One major difference between a successful person and a failure is the ability to know what to do to succeed. Most times when what to do is clearly discovered, the actual doing would be spontaneous.

The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth that brings revelation from the Father- John 16;12-15. When he brings the knowledge of the right thing to do, it is as though light suddenly beams into darkness and the darkness fleeing into oblivion.

At this point every form of confusion disappears and there is clarity of purpose.

 Prophetic Nugget : Every area you have been stuck because you don’t know what to do, may the inspiration of the Holy Spirit come through for you in Jesus name.

Bible in One Year: 1 Samuel 1-3

Text: Acts 2:1-4

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

A hot stove will not be a suitable hiding place for cockroaches, houseflies and other disease carriers. But the opposite is also true. A life that carries the fire of the Holy Spirit will be too hot for demons and other strangers to inhabit.

Fire burns in the bones of those who store God’s word in their hearts and live by the same. Fire kindles in the lives of those who run with the urgency of the great commission of Christ who said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:18-21

Our God is a Consuming Fire. When you present yourself before him with a surrendered and an open heart, his fire purifies you just like raw gold is purified by fire. Isaiah tasted of that fire and he never remained the same. His ministry took a brand new turn. Isaiah 6:1-8

One hundred and twenty (120) men and women gathered together seeking god’s face for several days and before they knew it the fire of God fell on them and they began to speak with new tongues praising the Lord- Acts 2:1-4. Timidity gave way to boldness and they became carriers of his power. When you fellowship regularly with carriers of his fire, iron will sharpen iron and you too will catch the fire.

In the presence of God is fullness of joy and pleasure. Get filled with that joy and pleasure and don’t be empty.

Prayer Nugget: Father, please purify and fill me with your fire today in Jesus name

Text: 1 Samuel 5:1-12

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Being the temple of God, our bodies, spirits and souls are supposed to b his dwelling place. In the Old Testament, one of the things that made the temple of God special is the presence of the Ark of Covenant also called the Ark of Testimony is the large golden chest that carries the tablets the Ten Commandments were written on-1 Kings 8:9.

This may look casual and ordinary but this simple content makes the Ark so powerful that it parted the Jordan River- Joshua 3-4; it brought causing exceedingly great panic and affliction on the cities of the enemies of God who stole it- 1 Samuel 5:1-12.

When your life is daily saturated with the word of God, you automatically be a carrier of God’s presence and power. You will be a threat to your enemies; obstacles will give way and bow to the power of the Most High that you carry.

Feed on God’s word daily, memorize it; meditate upon it and live by it. Make the word of God your delight. Ensure you take in heavy doses of the Word daily and you will be surprised at the miracles your life will begin to exude. You will then be a mobile Ark of God’s Testimony and Covenant. Don’t be empty.

Key Nugget: When your life is daily saturated with the word of God, you automatically be a carrier of God’s presence and power.

Text: Matthew 12:43-45

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Yesterday, we established that nature allows no vacuum or empty space. Something must fill every empty space, whether good or evil. That is why you cannot afford to be empty. It is a dangerous thing to be empty because there are homeless forces of darkness desperately looking for accommodation. They are in search of human houses (souls) to occupy.

The word of God says, “When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it.Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ When it arrives, it finds the house unoccupied, swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that person is worse than the first. That is how it will be with this wicked generation.” Matthew 12:43-45

Our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit; but you know Satan has always desired to ‘overthrow’ God and occupy his dwelling place- Isaiah 14:13. If you are already carrying God’s presence, you have to be careful to continue to retain the divine presence because the devil will do everything in his capacity to lure you into sin so that you can lose the presence of God.

He knows that once you lose God’s presence, the space left will be immediately filled by him. This is the fate of backsliders except they repent. The word of God warns, saying, “Therefore, let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.” 1 Corinthians 10:12

Unrepentant backsliders have automatically given the devil unrestricted access to occupy their hearts and if they continue in their backslidden state, their situation could become worse to the state of apostasy. When anybody gets to this unfortunate point he becomes irredeemable.

Concerning such people the word of God says, “For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.” Hebrews 6:4-6

Key Nugget: It is dangerous to be empty.

Bible in One Year: Judges 14-16

Text: 1 Corinthians 10:21-22

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

In nature there is no room for a vacuum. Every space needs to be filled; every life has to be filed with something or someone. It is either you are filled with light or darkness. You are either saturated with the Holy Spirit or the spirit of the devil. No truly empty space can exist for long, as something will immediately move in to fill it. 

The Lord Jesus Christ said, “When an evil spirit goes out of a person, it travels over dry country looking for a place to rest. If it can’t find one, it says to itself, ‘I will go back to my house.’ So it goes back and finds the house empty, clean, and all fixed up. Then it goes out and brings along seven other spirits even worse than itself, and they come and live there. So when it is all over, that person is in worse shape than at the beginning.” Matthew 12:43-45b (GNT)

When your life is filled with the fire of the Holy Ghost, you give no room for evil caterers to have access to your life.

Your body is the temple and dwelling place of the Holy Spirit, no unclean spirit or stranger should be allowed to pollute it- 1 Corinthians 6:19-20. One of the advantages of the partaking of the Holy Communion is that it shields you from the evil caterers. The word of God says, “You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the Lord’s table and of the table of demons”- 1 Corinthians 10:21

If you live in obedience to God’s word and you are a regular partaker of the table of the Lord, you give Him the opportunity to fight the evil caterers with the fire of His jealousy.

Prophetic Nugget: From today, may you be shielded by the fire of the Holy Spirit day and night in Jesus name.

Text: Psalm 91:1-6

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

A lady once dreamt that someone brought her an edible item carefully wrapped. She was commanded to eat it but somehow she refused. It became a heated argument but she insisted she wasn’t going to eat it.

While the argument was going on, it turned out that the object in the wrap was a piece of okra which later transformed into an animal that looked like a lizard in that same dream. And she woke up. What if she had consumed the ‘okra’? It could have turned to the lizard-like creature in her body causing diseases like incurable cough, epilepsy and other Satan-inflicted affliction.

Thank God for the Secret Place of the Most High and his special covering on those who fear him.

If you go to the Lord for safety and remain under the protection of the Almighty, and can say to him, “You are my defender and protector. You are my God; in you I trust,” He will keep you safe from all hidden dangers and from all deadly diseases.

The Lord will cover you with his wings (like a hen covers her chicks from dangers); you will be safe in his care; his faithfulness will protect and defend you. You need not fear any dangers at night or sudden attacks during the day or the plagues that strike in the dark or the evils that kill in daylight. Psalm 91:1-6.

Surrender to his will today and make him your Shield and Protector from the evil caterers.

Prophetic Nugget: Father, please let your protective covering be upon me and my household daily in Jesus name.
