RHAPSODY OF REALITIES,
TUESDAY 2ND MARCH 2021.

TOPIC: BE VIGILANT IN THE SPIRIT
They which builded on the wall, and they that bare burdens, with those that laded, every one with one of his hands wrought in the work, and with the other hand held a weapon (NEHEMIAH 4:17)
Nehemiah was faced with an intense opposition when he decided to build the wall of Jerusalem. The Jews’ enemies were determined to stop the building by slaying the builders. But Nehemiah wasn’t ignorant of their evil plans and intentions.
As he led God’s people to build the wall, they prepared to ward off any form of attack. Each one held a weapon with the other hand, taking every necessary precaution against any onslaught from the enemy. This was written for our learning.
We’re partners and co-labourers with the Lord in building His Church—His body—winning souls and carrying out the work of the ministry. While at it, we must be ready to fight against the decrees of darkness to force us to live in a world, an atmosphere or governmental system that’s hostile to the Gospel.
Satan, knowing that his time is short, is trying to move ahead to create the environment of the anti Christ before his time. So, we must be on the alert and on the offensive. 1 Peter 5:8 says, “Be sober, be vigilant….” Be vigilant in the spirit, listening in, and with, your spirit as you speak in tongues and meditate on the Scriptures.
The Lord will give you strategies and guidance on how to effectively dismantle the structures of the adversary.
Refuse to be moved by some of the happenings in the world today—the confusion, fear and deception. By the power of God’s Spirit, we (the Church) are exercising our authority in Christ, bringing in the new order of things. Get vitally involved in this. Pray like you’ve never done! When we call for days of global prayer and fasting, be a part of it. We’re setting in place a new world order in the Spirit, where the Gospel has free course, and in preparation for our soon coming Lord. Amen.
CONFESSION
I’m strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might. He opens my eyes to spiritual realities and unveils His thoughts to my spirit. And today, I take charge of situations from the realm of the Spirit. I pray against any attempt of the devil to force the Church of Jesus Christ to live in a world of the beast before his time. Until the rapture of the Church, the Name of Jesus Christ shall be glorified in all nations. Amen.

#TALKINGSESSION
Dear heavenly Father, I thank You for the working of Your Word in my life. My growth in life is evident and consistent, because I am connected to my source—the Word.
I thank You for Your light that’s in my spirit, and the ability to receive direction, inspiration, counsel and wisdom from Your Word and the Holy Spirit.
My spirit is constantly refreshed and educated by Your Word to produce excellence, and manifest righteousness.
The Word of God is my life and sustenance and has made me fruitful in every good work. I live in divine health, supernatural abundance, and in continual victory and prosperity.
The light of God’s Word illuminates my path, and all things are working together for my good. Thank You for giving me life and immortality, making me a partaker of Your divine nature.
I declare that by the power of the Holy Spirit working in me, I am effective in the divine experience and bearing fruits in every good work, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
God bless you
