Monthly focus for October, 2022 by Pastor Favour Onoja

MONTHLY FOCUS FOR OCTOBER, 2022

 

Pastor Favour Onoja

“And he said unto me, son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee.
And the Spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me” (Ezekiel 2:1-2).

Welcome to the Month of October, 2022, the last Quarter of the year.

Our Focus for the Month is “THE POWER OF THE SPIRIT”

In this Month, the Power of God shall erupt in your life; it shall translate to strange manifestations of His acts; and shall bring major and mega transformation in your lives, in Jesus Name, Amen.

The Spirit of God is the conveyor and transmitter of His Power. It is the channel or platform through which the Power of God is demonstrated to our generation and dying World that is full of decadence and degeneration.

It is the avenue through which revival fire shall spread over the nations to tackle and terminate the covering cast that has spread over the whole earth (Isaiah 25:7).

We need more of this Power in these days of turmoil, uncertainty, perplexity, insecurity and unrest in the nations of the earth.

Jesus saw the need and importance of this Power, so He told the disciples to tarry (wait) in Jerusalem until they were endued with the Power (Luke 24:49) – The Power of the Holy Spirit.

He told them that their relevance, influence and impact on the earth is dependent on this Power. The disciples hearken to His instructions and they tarried for One Hundred and Twenty (120) Days in the Upper Room until the Power was released in Acts 1:8.

The disciples wrought signs and wonders when this Power was released. They turned the World upside down, held spell bound territories and Kings. They conquered territories for the Lord when the Power was released. It got to the point where the shadow of Peter healed the sick (Acts 5:15); handkerchiefs and aprons aprons from the body of Paul healed diseases and evil spirits departed out of people’s lives (Acts 19:11-12).

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE SPIRIT ENTERS INTO YOU?

1. You are established, set up to manifest God’s purpose on earth (Ezekiel 2:2);

2. You are Restored;

3. You are Delivered (Luke 4:18);

4. Supernatural strength comes. Weakness and indefatigability dies;

5. It sponsors courage, fearlessness; and kills cowardice and intimidation;

6. It turns a weakling into a Lion. It impacts lionic unction;

7. It sponsors exploits (Daniel 11:32);

8. It destroys the yoke of darkness (Isaiah 10:27);

9. It brings a change of status (1Samuel 10:6);

10. It sponsors the manifestations of the gifts of the Spirit (1Samuel 10:6);

11. It sponsors supernatural speed – divine acceleration (1Kings 18:46);

12. It sponsors Supernatural Favour (1Samuel 10:3-4);

13. It sponsors Impartation and Amplification (Luke 3:21-22);

14. It sponsors Supernatural Supplies (1Samuel 10:4);

15. It sponsors Glory;

16. It sponsors Freedom (Luke 4:18);

17. It is key to Excellence and Prominence;

18. It terminates Delay and Barrenness;

19. It makes you a Wonder to your generation;

20. It is key to Wisdom and Expertise (Exodus 35:30-35);

21. You become a Witness Bearer for the Gospel;

22. It is key to Deliverances from Death and Destruction (Psalm 105:14-15);

23. It is key to Open Heavens (Ezekiel 1:1);

24. It is key to preference and acceptability (Daniel 6:3);

25. It is the secret to Inventions and Ideas (Job 32:8);

26. It is the secret to Amplification of your Voice (Matthew 17:5); and

27. It’s the Secret to the Blessing

PROPHESIES:

I decree and declare that in this Tenth Month of the year 2022, you shall manifest the glory of God, in Jesus Name, Amen

I decree and declare that by the Anointing of the Spirit of God, you are preserved throughout this Month, in Jesus Name, Amen! (Isaiah 4:5-6)

I decree and declare that the Power of the Holy Spirit shall usher you into greatness and cause you to be a witness for the Gospel, in Jesus Name, Amen

Lame but still useful by Pastor Favour Onoja

LAME BUT STILL USEFUL

 

By Pastor Favour Onoja

 

“And Jonathan, Saul’s son, had a son that was lame of his feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel, and his nurse took him up, and fled: and it came to pass, as she made haste to flee, that he fell, and became lame. And his name was Mephibosheth” (2 Samuel 4:4)

It does not matter what you have gone through in life, everyone of us is born to achieve his or her purpose. There is an anointing on your head for the completion of your assignment.

If you have been dropped through association, marriage, friends, business and the society, you can stand up again. Maybe you made an attempt to succeed, marry and you fail; Brethren, you can still rise again in the name of Jesus, Amen. The Bible said “For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branches thereof will not cease. Though the root thereof was old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground; yet through the scent of water it will bud and bring forth boughs like a plant … if a man die, shall he live again? All the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come“(Job14:7-9,14).

Get ready, God is going to move you to your next level where you shall matter and become a voice in your generation. For you to make any significant success, you got to know who dropped you and where you were dropped. A problem is best solved when you analyze the source. Have you been dropped through a wrong relationship, association, circumstances of life, sickness or the society? There is hope for you.

“And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years” (John 5:5). This man was at one spot for thirty eight years. His heart was so much conditioned that when help finally came, he could not recognize it.

Jephthah was dropped by his own brethren. Can you imagine, his own brethren dropped him, just like they did to Joseph. “They thrust him out, and said unto him, “Thou shall not inherit out father’s house, for thou art the son of a strange woman” (Judges 11:2). It does not matter where they thrust you to. They may have thrust you into the wilderness of life, but the kind of wilderness you go through is determined by the kind of Ministry God will give to you. Wherever they thrust you to, just regroup and make a comeback and fully your Ministry.

He went to the land of Tob to prepare himself. Just prepare yourself for greater things ahead. Do not entertain pity party. God will create an opportunity for your comeback. I don’t know how long Jephthah dwelt in the land of Tob, but the Bible said “It came to pass in process of time, that the children of Ammon made war against Isreal, the elders of Gilead went to fetch Jephthah out of the land of Tob”. (Judges 11:5) Brethren, it won’t be long, God will orchestrate a situation for your to be remembered in Jesus name, Amen!.

The greatest limitation that can keep you where you have been dropped is the captivity of the mind. When your mind is rendered captive, you can’t rise above where you are. Recently, an experiment was carried out on an insect, whereby, the insect was cultured for two weeks, and covered in a jar with a lead. The insect will then fly to the top of the jar, the head hits the jar cover and then goes back. It continued, got used to it until after two weeks that the jar was opened, it could not fly above that level, not knowing that it can now fly to any height.

It does not matter where you have been dropped, if you can work on your mind through diligent study, change is inevitable. The result you produce in life is determined by the amount of light you receive or information available to you. Intercession is enhanced when information is on ground. You cannot have information and not have motion; you cannot have motion and not cause waves; you cannot cause waves and not make news. Information bails you out of frustration. What you hear determined you drive and direction.

“For she had heard in the country of Moab that the Lord had visited his people by giving them bread (Ruth 1:6). Ruth clung to her mother in-law through what she heard. What are you hearing in that mess you are in now?

And Elijah said unto Ahab, “Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain (1 Kings 18:41). The type of sound you hear will anchor your faith in whatever mess you are going through.

Sometimes, you got to be dropped to think your way through. Until you are dropped, you don’t see reasons to advance or go forward. You cannot appreciate the mercies of God until you have been dropped.

The Samaritan woman was dropped through marriage and tradition. There is nothing that hinders the flow of the anointing like tradition. Tradition can stop you. She had five husbands and Jesus exposed her nakedness, her wounds; and poured His healing oil on her.

Wherever you have been dropped, Jesus will reach you right on time. His hands are long enough to reach you where you are.

Juanita Bynum, an American Preacher said “Don’t get off the train, enroute to your destiny”. Wherever you are now is a bus stop. Don’t accept the alternative for the real thing. The Samaritan woman had five bus-stops, courtesy of marriage. She was not fulfilled. She might have wanted to smile, but there are wounds inside of her cover, but Jesus reached her situation and picked her up. He said to her, you have been at Five Bus Stops, but this train is a different one. It is a train that carries destitute, those cast down, those afflicted and He took them to the Kings table where every provision for their restoration is packaged. The train is on a mission and its direction is to the King’s table. It is orchestrated for your recovery.

Mephibosheth was dropped for 20 years. He dwelt in the land of 10 – debar, a land of no communication. He could not fulfill his destiny, call and the assignment over his life. He could not even afford an accommodation of his own, even though, by destiny, he was to be in the Palace yet he was dropped (2 Sam9:1-13).

It does not matter where you have been dropped, your placement is at the King’s table. Even our failures are our success! They represent the miracle you and I survived. No matter how wounded you are, no matter how handicapped you have become, no matter how far you are from where you could have and should have been – you will still make it to the Palace and sit at the table with the rest of the Kings’s kids! Yes, even though you still have a problem tucked under the table cloth that other people cannot see, you still belong to the Kings’s table. It is the command of the King!

He was a Prince among Princes. That was his position, and hidden under the table was his condition. His return to the Palace was goodness. His return to the Palace was goodness. Your position can overcome your condition.

Mephibosheth got a kingly invitation that changed his life forever. Jesus, the King of kings and Lord of lords is also extending His invitation to you to come. He said in Math.11:28-30, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me; for I am meek and lonely in heart and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light”.

As you honour this invitation, he will give you rest from that hopeless situation, divorce, stagnation, unfulfilled life in Jesus name, Amen!.

Fasting and Prayers, focus for September 2022 – Pastor Favour Onoja

Pastor Favour Onoja

 

 

“And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah the King of Judah, in the Ninth Month, that they proclaimed a fast before the LORD to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem” (Jeremiah 36:9)

Welcome to the Month of September, 2022. Our Focus for this Month is “Fasting and Prayers”

In this Month, God shall deliver your portion and inheritance unto you in Jesus Name.

Fasting is a powerful spiritual discipline that has its strong roots in the Bible. Through Fasting and Prayers, the Holy Spirit can transform your life.

Jesus himself spent time in Fasting and Prayers during his life on earth (Matthew 4:1-11); and He expected His followers to fast and pray as well.

WHAT IS FASTING?

1. It is the act or practice of abstaining from food or eating very little for religious or medical reasons.

2. Fasting is the spiritual discipline of denying ourselves something (typically food), to feast on the things of God.

3. Fasting is where you nourish your spirit, and your fears starve to death. It helps detach us from the World and re-attaches us to God.

TYPES OF FASTING:

1. Absolute Fast: This is when you fast on food, water and all other pleasure completely for a time or period of time (Exodus 34:28; 1Kings 19:8; Acts 9:9).

2. Total Fast: This is when you fast on food for a period of time. Jesus practiced this kind of fast (Luke 4:1-2; 2Corinthians 11:27).

3. Partial Fast and Denial: This is when you fast on drinks (not necessarily water), TV, internet, or other things that gratify the flesh for a time or period of time. Daniel practiced this kind of fast in the Bible (Daniel 1:10-16).

REASONS FOR FASTING:

1. To Prepare for Ministry: Jesus fasted for forty days and forty nights before He began God’s work on earth (Matthew 4:1-11).

2. To Seek God’s Wisdom: Paul and Barnabas prayed and fasted for the elders of the Church before committing them to the Lord for His service (Acts 14:23).

3. To Show Grief: Nehemiah mourned, fasted, and prayed when he learned Jerusalem’s walls had been broken down, leaving the Israelites vulnerable and disgraced (Nehemiah 1:1-4).

4. To Seek Deliverance or Protection (Ezra 8:21-23).

5. To Repent: After Jonah pronounced judgment against the city of Nineveh, the King covered himself with sackcloth and sat in the dust (Jonah 3:10).

6. To Gain Victory: After losing Forty thousand men in a battle in two days, the Israelites cried out to God for help (Judges 20:26).

7. To Worship God: The book of Luke 2 tells us the story of an Eighty-Four year old Prophetess, named Anna. Verse 37 says “She never left the temple but served God with fasting and prayers, night and day. Anna was devoted to God, and fasting was one expression of her love to Him.

BENEFITS OF FASTING AND PRAYER:

1. To loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke (Isaiah 58:6).

2. Fasting helps us to hear from God clearly and get His direction (Isaiah 58:11; Ezra 8:21-23; 31).

3. Fasting is part of preparing the Church for the Ministry and the work God has planned for us (Acts 13:2-5).

4. Fasting gives you spiritual Authority over demons and forces of darkness (Luke 4:14).

5. Fasting enhances your intimacy with God (Luke 1:80).

6. It’s a means of repentance (Nehemiah 1:4-11; Daniel 9:1-19).

7. It’s a tool for Deliverance from Death and Destruction. Esther secured the deliverance of the Jews from Haman’s plot of genocide against them (Esther 4:16).

8. It increases revelation and understanding of the Word of God (Ephesians 1:17-19; Isaiah 58:8).

9. Fasting also improves your physical health (Isaiah 58:8).

10. It improves mental health (Isaiah 58:8; 11:2-3).

11. It increases Angelic activities (Genesis 28:12; John 1:51; Acts 12:1-11).

12. It brings intervention and interrupt enemy’s agenda (Acts 12:1-11)

PROPHESIES:

I decree and declare that in this Ninth Month, every agenda of hell shall be terminated in Jesus Name, Amen!

I decree and declare that the glory of the Lord shall be your defence (Isaiah 4:5-6), in Jesus Name, Amen!

I decree and declare that your portion and inheritance shall be given to you, in Jesus Name, Amen!

“And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert (Isaiah 43:18-19)”

In all these happenings, God is interested in the welfare and well-being of His people.
