Miracles Everyday Part 2

Miracles Everyday Part 2 by 'Femi Oguntolu
Yesterday I discussed with you three steps to get and enjoy a miracle from God, I hope you were blessed. Today I will be sharing with you the remaining 4 steps.
4. Leave the "How" to God
When you are expecting a miracle,you dont need to figure how God will do it. That is not your business. Unbelief sets in when you try to figure how. He is God and he exceeds whatever you can think of ( Eph 3:20). An occurrence that you can predict is not a miracle. If it must be a miracle,it must daze you
5. Celebrate the anointing
A lot of  people dont receive miracles because they do not celebrate the anointing of God upon the life of the servants of God he has sent to them. Jesus could not do any significant work in his home town because they failed to celebrate the anointing of God upon him. They looked at him as ordinary. They saw jesus the son of the carpenter and not jesus the anointed. They missed out. An anointing you dont celebrate cannot work for you. It doesnt matter how small (in stature) or how old a man of God set over you is, you must celebrate the anointing to receive a miracle (2 chronicles 20:20). Naaman almost lost his miracle because he despised the man of God (2kings 5:11-14). It is absolute foolishness not to honor and hold in high esteem the servants of God that have been set over you.
6. Live in an atmosphere of worship
The response of God to worship is only second to faith. God seeks worshipers. He dwells in the praise of his people. When men praise God, he responds with miracles (psalm 67:5-7). He loves to be worshipped. He loves to praised sincerely. It is,however, impossible to praise God sincerely without a heart of gratitude. Gratitude is a nature. The size of a gift does not change the response of an ungrateful man. God doesnt like ungrateful men because they cant worship sincerely. They cant give him what he wants. He doesn't stay with such people. Unfortunately for them, miracles only occur in the presence of God. You must develop the attitude of gratitude. When you thank God for what you have, he gives you what you dont have.
7. Abide
 A lot of people forget God once they receive a miracle. They fail to return to thank him and further abide in his presence. People have received great miracles that spoilt in their hands because they left his presence. The mana in the ark of covenant did not spoil. It was in the presence of God. Every blessing received from God and used outside of him will spoil. It is his presence that works miracles. It is his presence that preserves them . One out of the healed lepers returned (Luke 17:12-16). Naaman returned(2 kings 5:15). The disciples returned ( luke 10:1-17).It is wisdom to stay in his presence so that your miracle can be sustained.

Favour Demystified

W elcome to another Wednesday’s insight series.  I believe you are set to get another insight today so, let’s dive in. Dictionary defines favour as an act of kindness done or granted out of goodwill. It is also to show preferential treatment to someone. Favour is derived from the same root word as Grace, CHARIS. And this makes favour to be as powerful as grace. But while grace is totally unmerited and unearned, favour can be deserved, gained and entreated. There are two dimensions of favour; favour with God and favour with man. The greatest dimension is to be in favour with God because when you have that, favour with man comes cheaply.  You don’t beg for man’s favour when you are in favour with God, God himself will cause men to favour you-He will cause you to find favour with people regardless of how high and mighty they are.  Another truth about favour is that it does not have prejudice for colour, race, gender or location. You’re a candidate for favour as long...

August; Sudden Visitations

I remember anytime someone visits us unexpectedly we say this is an August visitor. We are surprised at the coming of the person and at the same time the person is highly welcomed. This actually doesn't mean the person came in August but it just denotes the arrival of an important person unexpectedly. Sudden Visitations brings with it surprises and blessings. For example, when God visited Sarah, barrenness was terminated, when He visited Obededom suddenly, Obededom became prosperous, when He visited Paul and Silas, their bond was loosed. And when he visits you too, your desires are met. Therefore, in this month of August, there shall be unexpected arrival of great things in your life. God will visit you this month. And understand that when God visits you, He doesn't come empty handed, He comes with a gift for you. I'm so full of assurance that you will have testimonies this month. Your head shall be lifted up, your hands shall be made strong , your feet shall be str...

Relationships: 5 Ways to Apologize

Because we are relational beings we tend to offend others and step on each other’s toe but then if we want to maintain a peaceful life and continue to enjoy our relationship with them we must know how to apologize. And because we are different and unique, each of us has a way of which we want the apology to be expressed. No wonder sometimes we apologize and it seems the other person is not satisfied. It’s not that you didn’t apologize just that you didn’t express it in the language they will understand. You must therefore understand the apology language of the other person in other for both of you to be reconciled.

This language identifies with the emotions of the offended party. Accepting Responsibility: "I was wrong." Name your mistake and accept fault. "I should not have done that. There...
