*YOUR POTENTIALS ARE LIMITLESS .*
*Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God (2 Corinthians 3:5).*
The word “sufficiency” is the Greek “hikanotes,”which means competence; being qualified enough to be able. When the Scripture says, “Our sufficiency is of God,” it means our competence or ability is of God. No matter the challenges life poses before you, you’re more than able to face them and win. What a life! This has nothing to do with your human ability or connections; it’s about the Christ-life in you.
God has given you a life that makes you more than a man. There’s a divine energy working in you; it doesn’t burn out, neither does it require replenishing. Refuse therefore to be limited by your physical ability. The Holy Spirit—the source of all strength, and Spirit of might Himself—lives in you. That means your potentials are limitless! Christ’s glorious power works in you mightily to achieve results that are beyond human ability and comprehension (Colossians 1:29). Affirm this in your life always.
If you’d take advantage of this divine ability, it’ll make all the difference at school, in your work place and in whatever you do. You’ll go further, faster and do far more excellently than your physical ability can take you. Never feel incompetent, inadequate, or incapable for any task. Christ is your sufficiency; therefore, by His ability at work in you, you can do all things; you’re up to any task. Hallelujah!
Refuse to be intimidated. Fear nothing. Talk bold all the time. Declare who you are, what you have, and your ability in Christ Jesus! This is important, because if you don’t affirm it, you’ll not experience it. Keep declaring that Christ is your sufficiency; therefore, your potentials are limitless. You’re excellent, and have an excellent life. Blessed be God!
PRAYER
*Dear Father, I thank you for your divine power that works in me mightily. Christ is my life, my sufficiency, wisdom, and righteousness. He’s made my life beautiful, fruitful, productive and sound! Blessed be your glorious Name forever. Amen.*

CHURCH CHOIR
Let me tell you something about church choir. Please don't laugh.
You see church choir? It's one of the most interesting place to be in church. There you see all manners of people and behaviours.
1. There is this set of guys they call "instrumentalists" lol. Those ones? If they ever come for rehearsals on time, then something is wrong. They are always late, and in most cases the choir director can't sanction them.
2. Choir Director.
The choir director always have a set of favorite singers in the choir and someone whom he/she always give the lead role in a song. And some people in the choir will always 'beef' that person, especially those who can't sing well.
3. In some cases, the most committed set of people in the choir are those who can't sing, and you just can't drive them away. They are very punctual and committed, both in attendance and spoiling of songs..
4. In some cases, the singers with very high level of pride are in soprano, while the most stubborn ones are in alto.
5. In every choir, there must be a certain brother and sister who usually do some exclusive rehearsals in the closet. When you look at those ones very well, they are the one that has chosen music as a career.
6. Some female singers actually joined the choir either because they love the uniform or they believe that's where their husband will find them, or they just want to stand on the microphone let the church see them.
7. The choir at some point during rehearsals will behave as if they are so tired and they want the director to close, but immediately the director stops teaching songs everybody starts 'gisting'.
8. There is always a "minor factor" in the choir: a certain Chorister who specialises in spoiling songs. The only way to spot this person is to ask them to sing one after the other. If the person is a tenor singer and he's a smart guy, he'll want to go out and ease himself that very time.
9. If the choir is hosting a concert, the rehearsals will be really interesting but on the concert day sound is always bad (sounds engineers please forgive me).
10. Even if the whole church falls under anointing, the "instrumentalists" standeth firm on the solid rock. They can never fall under anointing. E no fit happen. I tire for them.
In all of these, God is gracious, and Jesus won't stop loving choristers.
I'm proud to be one.
There's Wisdom beneath this for all to take corrections...
When u receive Christ & made Him your Lord & saviour, u receive something. U receive the nature & life of God, which means u live in spiritual realm, were u rule & reign with Christ. When u pray demons has to flee! That nature & life made u more than a man or a woman u are. The power & authority of God is invested in u, that is why u can pray for the sick & they got healed, its because u got the power of God on the inside u.
Know this, every believer has power & authority, but not all of them are excising their authority. Why? Because the Bible says on (Mark 16:17) that these signs shall follow them that believe; in my name they shall cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongue etc. That means if u are believer; u can cast out devils; lay hands on the sick, they shall recover, but the problem is, most believers they dont excise their authority & power, thats the problem.
A true believer has power & authority given to them in their spirit. As a believer, u have to train yourself to speak the right words at the right time, at the right place, in the right way, because u are no longer ordinary. U carry the spirit of God on the inside of u & u are no longer who u used to! The spirit of God fills u up & made u His home, though u cannot see this with your optical eyes, He lives inside u!
A spirit filled person serve God better than the one who is not, because whatever a spirit filled person declares supernaturally, it manifest naturally; & that is what we call a miracle.
The word of God says, God is spirit & those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit & in truth (John 4:24). So u see how important it is to be in the spirit. When we are in the spirit, we can win souls to Christ, we can do all sort of miracles, we can pray & cause the blind to see, we can heal all kinds of sickness & diseases. We can do this only when we are true worshipers, who worship Him in spirit & in truth. Only believe all things are possible! #Our God is able!
The ‘Woes’
The last three trumpets are also called the ‘three woes’.
Why? Because they were even more terrible than the four before them, and also, they were different because a new religion is here introduced into the world, a religion of darkness, almost the exact opposite to the teachings of Jesus.
The ravages of these warriors of Islam were to be seen in the ‘woes’, of the last three trumpets. The western part of the former Roman Empire has been brought down in the first four trumpets. There is no emperor on the throne in the city of Rome any more. Instead the Bishop of Rome sits on the throne and rules over both the church and the government. So now the 5th and 6th trumpets bring attacks on the eastern part, where there still is a Roman Emperor ruling. By the end of the 6th trumpet, the eastern Roman Empire is destroyed completely also.
The word ‘woe’ or ‘wo’ here, is a cry of sorrow. The evil ways of men bring suffering and misery on themselves and others. Only in loving and obeying Jesus is real joy to be found.
“And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.” Revelation 9:1, 2
If you look back at the first chapter of Revelation, you will see there that Jesus had seven ‘stars’ in His hand and we learned that these were messengers to the churches. Here we see a fallen star; a religious messenger, but a fallen or false one. He has a key to turn something loose on the earth.
This is a key of circumstances; long wars in other areas of the world allowed the development of this dark power.
Here we see him open up a pit, and smoke comes out so thick that the sun and air is made dark. Now remember these are all symbols, so what does it mean? This is telling us about when the religion of Mohammedanism was invented by the man that claimed to be a prophet. His name was Mohammed, and though he could not write, his teachings were remembered and written down by others, and later, after he died, these bits and pieces were gathered together into a new ‘bible’ called the Koran.
YOU CAN ESCAPE!
READ: James 4:6-10
For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks
Psalm 18:27
The Scripture below teaches that women will do well if they are not amazed (emotional).
…whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
1 Peter 3:6 "
Amazement", speaks of the emotional nature of women. When the emotions of a woman dominate her, she loses her focus. Emotions can make a woman forget all the Scriptures and principles she knows. Do not allow emotions of sorrow, fear, jealousy, hatred, and insecurity to overwhelm you. Remember, you will do well when you are not dominated by your emotions.
Because women have suffered greatly from discrimination, they tend to be reactionary and are tempted to be proud. Many women display the pride of a "no-nonsense" person. There is no need to be proud and reactionary . Humble yourself in the sight of the Lord and He will lift you up! God can promote you better than you can with your words.
I often say that women suffer the temptation to be unforgiving. They have fishhook hearts. This is a deep, narrow and retentive heart which stores up all the hurts and experiences of this life. God will not hear your prayers when you do not forgive others. Your life will change dramatically when you learn forgiveness. Woman, remember that your sins are numerous. It is in your interest to walk in love and to forgive those who have hurt you. This will make you a daughter that pleases the Lord.
