Of Hard Men and Love Languages.

A believer that is conscious of the divine life at work in him cannot claim to be a hard man.

Such a concept cannot exist when God is in you for His will and good pleasure.

The world has built stereotypes.
One of those stereotypes is Men should not show emotions as emotions are a sign of weakness.

This isn't true.

Jesus wept. His cousin Lazarus just died and it got to him.

Jesus mourned. His relative, John the Baptist was just beheaded and he left for a place to be alone.
Jesus had compassion. Great compassion for that matter. He knew the widow of Nain was in trouble seeing that her husband was dead and now, her only son.

Jesus was Empathetic.

A woman walked into the synagogue while he taught and he knew what pains this woman was under.
Empathy moved him to perform a healing on a sabbath which angered the teachers of the love.

It didn't matter what others felt but what Jesus felt on how she felt (Oshey).

Jesus cared. John the Beloved could boast that he put his head on the bossom of Jesus.
This same Jesus after he resurrected made a meal for his disciples.

God prepared a table for them!

No, Brothers, Husbands, Fathers; you can't deaden your emotions over the dictate of people who don't know God.

If we are as Jesus is, we should do like He did.
Am I saying you should become overly emotional or always beligerent?

No. Be like Jesus.

Remember, you're the extension of His days so let your loved ones are Christ in you.

Besides, "Christ in you..."

The Woman.

Sometime last year, December precisely, @AbrahamSpeak did a teaching on Woman. In the course of the teaching, he mentioned women are gates and it made so much sense.

Since last year, I have been keeping watching and seeking the heart of the Father on issues.
And as we prayed on Friday on the Battle Axe Platform, the word came: a special prayer for Women.

This morning, during the morning devotion, we read Genesis 29:31 : “When the Lord saw that Leah was unloved, He opened her womb; but Rachel was barren.

God saw.
We sometimes paint God as one who does not care but this scriptures proves it all.

There's a love God has for women and if you're in ministry, you'll understand why.

Women give their all! Leah kept wishing Jacob could look at her with love but he didn't.

He was so upset.

Musings.

When you see People walking in the supernatural and doing great things, ask yourself what they do.

Are they given to consistent prayer?
Are they given you consistent study of the word?
Are they given to consistent lifestyle of intercession?

Did you notice anything?
The key to the dimensions of the supernatural is consistency - nothing more.

Make out time to study and pray. Lagos is positioned to douse the fire of God but there are many ways to rule over that attack.

Traffic? Time?

I'll share an experience that helped me.
A couple of years ago, while I was still engaged in employment, I just moved to Abule Egba and three weeks later, they started constructing the bridge.

My office was at Ikeja and though not a distance, the routes were still unknown to me. My wife worked at Ijesha.

My wife was dressed.

It was Sunday morning and though we lived in Abule Egba, our church was at Surulere.

The Lord instructed us to that church long before it was even built.

I'm sending someone through Gbenga who would give you an altar to preach and teach.

June 11, 2019.
I obeyed.

So when my wife would see me dressed and looking at my phone, it was because I was booking a ride and the surge was crazy.

We would sigh and look silently to the Heaven and speaking with our hearts - When will this car come?
It was worse after Sunday service. We would wait sometimes till everyone went home because the surge was high.

As we prepped for TPC, I was asking the Holy Spirit what the theme for the month will be and He said "Divine Establishment and Good News".

On Sunday, I got a call.

Contention.

Over the years, I have come to see that not all contentions are an attack per se and also contentions can lead you to the place God wants you to be.

As a man that has experienced fierce contentions, I know how some of them profited me and made me stronger.
This was the story and case of Isaac.

Well that his father dug were closed and even after digging, he and his men were bullied out of that place.

Yet, he moved further.

To dig a well during a great famine is no mean feat! It would have taken days, weeks or months!
Yet, when they found a source, they made an issue with him again and Isaac moved further.

Moved, until he got to Rehoboth! Then he exclaimed! The Lord has made room for me.

Beloved, our God is not a one off God. He desires to get you full until you're overwhelmed!

Prophet @femioladehin,

You are an example Sir! An example etched in experience and horned in the trials of life. I have been privileged to walk and work with you and again I say, YOU ARE AN EXAMPLE.

Many times, we see the business man and friend and even leader.
However, we sometimes fail to see that you are actually an anointed of God and you operate in a realm of power that many people have never experienced.

When God told me I would someone through Gbenga and you would give me a platform, I wondered who until we met.
What has joined us Sir, is supernatural with the imprint of the Divine and I rejoice knowing that under you I have grown to be a better man and minister.

Today, I call you Egbon because that is who you are to me, my Older Brother.

I honour and respect you.

Unforgiveness is a drainer and so is bitterness a consumer.
Envy can never prosper but make you myopic.
Rage weakens you from within.
Strife is an avenue for time to be wasted.

Jesus knew such things can be an issue so while He was here on earth He did something.
In Luke 4:18, Jesus said that the Spirit of God is upon Him to heal the broken hearted and proclaim liberty to the captive.

What are you captive to? Sickness? High blood pressure? Migraine? Weak heart?

The Spirit of God is ready to set you free from this bondage.
By 7:00AM today, we would be praying for those who are dealing with bitterness.

The Holy Spirit has also told me He would heal someone with an issue of blood.

I look forward to seeing you on Instagram:
