E very great man is a 'helped' man. The greatest man that ever lived was Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ enjoyed help from His birth till His death. When He was born, wise men brought Him gifts. And even when He died, a wise man offered a brand new tomb for His burial. All through the assignment of Jesus Christ on earth, people gave Him their buildings to publicise His message, they excitedly gave Him their boats to reach-out to His audience, they gave Him their horses to ease His movement from place to place, and they even prepared meals to replenish Him. Every great man is a 'helped' man Jesus enjoyed the blessing of helpers; this is why He fulfilled destiny without any stress whatsoever. However, when Jesus Christ was leaving this earth, He said to us: “All I did and enjoyed was just a preamble to the kind of life you should enjoy”. Every dreamer needs a dream interpreter Until you understand the place of HELPERS, you may struggle endlessly in life. You need to come to the understanding that God blesses men by using men. God has no human hands to meet human needs. Therefore, He performs His wonders via humans. When God decides to bless you and change your story, He deliberately sends you a man. When God brings the right person your way, lifting and promotion comes into your life. To be without helpers is to live like a leper. The absence of God-sent helpers in the life of a man makes him live an isolated, stagnated and declining life. The persistence of any challenge or limitation is a manifestation of the absence of helpers. There is no super-man anywhere, there are only helped men. Every successful man around is a product of help. No matter how potent your skills and abilities are, you need a voice to speak for you and a hand to support you. Every dreamer needs a dream interpreter. Every great man needs another great man for his greatness to gain physical expression. Helpers are ladders; they help your rising and they help sustain your lifting. Helpers are ladders; they contribute to your rising and they help sustain your lifting Proverbs 29:18 tells us that where there is no vision, the people perish. But, we must also understand that WHERE THERE ARE NO PEOPLE [helpers], THE VISION WILL PERISH. Regardless of your talent and skills, you need someone to advertise you. In every sense of the word, there is no man that is self-made; every great man we have seen or heard of are products of another great man. After creating everything, God looked and said: “It is not good for man to be alone.” God knew that every man will need the help of another man along the way. You must understand that those who are more successful than you may not have laboured more than you; they probably have helpers who have made their journey easy. Helpers are divine instruments of God to assist men in becoming what God wants them to be. Helpers are human instruments used by God to pull you out of where He doesn't want you to remain. In the book of John chapter 5, the Bible tells of a certain man who was stagnated for thirty-eight years all because he lacked helpers (John 5:7). When he was asked why he had been by the pool for a whopping 38 years, and yet had no testimony to show, he replied: “I HAVE NO MAN when the water is troubled to put me into the pool [of miracles]; but while I am coming, another steps in before me.” This means that those who get into the pool ahead of others have helpers. What does this tell us? Helpers bring speed into your life. Helpers minister simplicity into your life. Helpers take away stress from your life. Without helpers, you can be in the right place and still be living a wrong life. I PRAY FOR YOU TODAY IN THE NAME OF THE RESURRECTED CHRIST; THE ERA WHERE YOU STRUGGLE ALONE COMES TO AN END TODAY. BY VIRTUE OF YOUR CONTACT WITH THIS DESTINY RECOVERY MATERIAL, MAY YOU BEGIN TO ATTRACT UNCOMMON HELP AND SUPERNATURAL FAVOUR FROM TODAY. I PLACE ON YOUR FOREHEAD THE ANOINTING THAT ATTRACTS MEN OF GOODWILL, IN THE NAME OF JESUS. In our world today, many people have been beside the pool of their miracle for several years, yet couldn't find their way in. It is because they lack helpers. There are people who are just one-helperaway from their breakthrough and testimonies; there are people who have laboured and chased after a particular dream or project for several years, but achieving it seems almost impossible. Friend, all you need for your story to change is HELP. Helpers translate visions and dreams to reality. If not for Modecai, Esther would not have become a queen. No matter how big and colourful your dream is, you need a dream interpreter. Because Esther had a dream interpreter, her status changed from being a local maid to a respected queen. No matter how talented, skilful or gifted you are, you need helpers. Without helpers, a dreamer will die with his dreams unfulfilled. I DECREE IN THE NAME OF JESUS; FOR EVERY LONG-STANDING CHALLENGE IN YOUR LIFE, MAY YOU RECEIVE DIVINE HELP THAT WILL CAUSE THAT PROBLEM TO EXPIRE. You must understand that no vision fulfills itself. There are relevant roles others have to play in the actualization of your dream. Fulfilment of your Godgiven assignment is a function of the kind of helpers around you. Existing without God-sponsored helpers is an indication of hardship and frustration. Without helpers, a dreamer will die with his dreams unfulfilled I PRAY FOR YOU RIGHT NOW; AS YOU STUDY AND PRAY USING THIS MATERIAL, I RELEASE UNCOMMON GRACE INTO EVERY AREA OF YOUR LIFE; MAY THE GOD WHOM I SERVE AND BEGIN TO ORCHESTRATE STRATEGIC MEETINGS BETWEEN YOU AND THE PERSONS HOLDING THE KEY TO YOUR NEXT LEVEL. I SEE EVERYTHING TURNING AROUND FOR YOUR GOOD, IN THE NAME OF JESUS. THROUGH HIS POWER, THE HOLY GHOST WILL ARRANGE A MEETING BETWEEN YOU AND THE LINK TO YOUR CHAIN OF HELPERS. TO THE GLORY OF GOD, YOUR TESTIMONY MUST MANIFEST THIS MONTH IN JESUS NAME! SURELY, AS GOD IS GOD, THE POWERFUL REVELATIONS FROM THE WORD OF GOD IN THIS BOOK WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE TOTALLY. I SEE YOUR STORY CHANGING FROM TODAY, IN THE NAME OF JESUS. One You Need A Voice To Speak For You A destiny helper is God's gift to take the stress out of your journey in life. For every man or woman on the face of the earth, there are helpers assigned from Heaven. Until meeting such personalities lead to tangible contribution to the fulfilment of your destiny, things may seem hard to achieve. If you think you can succeed by how much energy you can exert, you may die struggling. If you are striving to be a 'self-made man', you are likely to die an average and unfulfilled man. You need helpers! Destiny helpers are not a function of age or gender; If you are striving to be a 'self-made man', you may die an average man. God can decide to use anybody to change your story. In the book of Judges 16, we were told of Samson's travail, and how God used a young man to give him resounding victory. In the face of shame, humiliation and molestation he was helped towards the pillars of the building, and in that instant, he killed over 3,000 people mocking him. According to the Word of God, the enemies SAMSON killed that day were more than the entire number he killed all through his life. How did this happen? A God-sent helper showed up for him. When helpers enter your life, your result multiplies. Irrespective of the success achieved, helpers are needed to aid the multiplication of the feat. If Samson, as anointed as he was, couldn't actualise the dream of delivering the children of Israel alone When helpers enter your life, your result multiplies. without the help of a lad, you need helpers! (Judges 15:3-6). In most cases, helpers bring into your life what money cannot buy. NAAMAN was a rich and famous man. (Read 2 Kings 5). He was a respected voice in his community. But there was a major clause in his story he had leprosy. He had enough money to buy anything he needed, but there was a major defect in his life that money could not correct. What Naaman's wealth and connections could not give him; a divinely positioned helper brought it into his life. If not for that little girl, Naaman would have died with his leprosy. The help of the young girl served as the catalyst for his miracle. You need helpers in your life to make you enjoy the kind of support and favour that money cannot buy. For many years in my life, I was struggling to be a 'self-made' man. I wanted to single-handedly struggle to succeed in life. Guess what? My results were mediocre and little because of the limitations I met on the way. I wasn't enjoying favour from men because I thought I had all I needed to succeed. My hands literally peeled off as I knocked endlessly on several doors for opportunities, and I was turned down in the most embarrassing ways. However, when I discovered the ministry of helpers, my story changed. As God brought certain helpers my way, my little efforts began to yield great results. With helpers, I skipped queues and was treated preferentially in high places. My victories and testimonies became sweatless and trouble-free. Friend, you need helpers to live a sweet life. To be without helpers is like someone living with limited breath. In Romans 16:3 and 4, Paul said: “I send greetings to Priscilla and Aquila... they risked their lives for me. I am grateful to them...” Paul's success in ministry was because there were helpers who made the journey easy for him. It is not enough to have passion, dreams and goals; the presence of helpers makes implementation and actualization very easy. As Paul was winding-up his journey, he could boldly say: “I have fought well. I have finished the race...” He was able to say such victorious words because he had enjoyed the ministry of helpers in his life and ministry. The reason things appear slow in your life is not because you lack force or knowledge, but absence of helpers. Some of the best footballers this earth has produced were reasonably unknown till they died; they were hidden and veiled in sleepy villages and towns praying for the day their big break would come. Meanwhile, there are many less-talented footballers, whose names are everywhere, raking in millions of dollars monthly. What is the difference? The reason things appear slow in life is not because you lack force or knowledge, you just lack helpers. Helpers! Child of God, you need helpers! Bill Gates did not really get his exposure and platform because he was the best with computer knowledge in the world, but because his mother sat on the same Board with the then IBM chairman, and expectedly, Bill was recommended. Thus, young Bill Gates enjoyed the preference and support others in his class could only dream of. The distinction between men is not really skills or gifts; it is helpers. When a regular man enjoys great help, he is later referred to as a great man. GREAT HELP IS WHAT PRODUCES GREAT MEN. Friend, you need helpers to enjoy relevance in this world. The most miserable man is the man who has no relevant person in his life. When you lack helpers, you may even get to the point of doubting your gifts because of the huge mountains that prevent you from actualizing them. So many projects have packed up, not because the set-man and arrow-head didn't have clear vision, but because he lacked helpers and dream interpreters. Loneliness kills liveliness. Lack of support reduces speed. Lack of assistance attracts resistance and opposition. Many grey-hairs have no connection with old age; they are simply evidence of toiling. When you lack helpers, you age with the speed of light. IN THE NAME OF JESUS, ENTER YOUR SEASON OF REST BY FIRE! MAY DIVINE SPEED ENTER YOUR DESTINY. FROM TODAY TILL THE END OF YOUR LIFE, MAY YOU NEVER LACK HELPERS IN THE NAME OF JESUS. Your voice alone cannot get you everywhere; every man needs a voice to speak for him. When God decides to remember you, he troubles the man or woman who has what you need to look in your direction. I PROPHESY INTO YOUR LIFE TODAY; THIS IS YOUR SEASON TO COMMAND UNCOMMON HELP. MAY GOD TROUBLE RELEVANT PEOPLE TO BECOME INTERESTED IN YOUR MATTER. IN ALL THE AREAS YOU NEED ASSISTANCE; I DECREE THAT HELP SHALL LOCATE YOU IN THE NAME OF JESUS. MAY GOD CEASE THE PEACE OF GREAT MEN UNTIL THEY FAVOUR YOU IN THE NAME OF JESUS. BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST, WHOEVER NEEDS TO ACT ON YOUR BEHALF FOR YOUR BREAKTHROUGH TO HAPPEN, I PUT THEM UNDER PRESSURE TO ACT NOW. ALL THE HELP YOU NEED FOR THE FULFILMENT OF YOUR DREAM, I RELEASE IT TO YOU BY FIRE. No matter how many degrees you have, there are heights you can never get to without helpers. Even if you have a PhD. in Political Science, there are certain elections you can't win without strategic helpers; I am talking about men and women who will use their popularity and goodwill to project you. No matter how good you are with creating technological products, your talent will keep wasting away until your helper shows up. YOU DON'T ONLY NEED IDEAS TO MOVE-UP IN LIFE, YOU NEED HELPERS. There are certain people you need in your life before you can become a voice; when certain people walk into your life, everything changes for good. IN THE NAME OF JESUS, THIS IS THE SEASON FOR YOU TO MEET WITH MEN AND WOMEN OF INFLUENCE. You don't only need ideas to move-up in life, you need helpers. Two Manifestations Of Destiny Helpers I will like us to briefly x-ray certain individuals who were destiny helpers to some of the greatest names whose lives and story inspire each one of us today. To a large extent, the entrance of these destiny helpers into their lives contributed to their inspirational existence. 1. GAMALIEL Acts 5:33-34 “When the council members heard this, they became so angry that they wanted to kill the apostles. But one of the members was the Pharisee Gamaliel, a highly respected teacher. He ordered the apostles to be taken out of the room for a little while.” The council members and other stone-hearted persecutors of the gospel were resolute in their desire to kill Peter and other Apostles. There was no going back on their decision, and this was not an empty threat. The work of God was growing rapidly, and the devil had entered the heart of some persons to frustrate what God was doing. However, one man called Gamaliel; a respected doctor of law who was highly esteemed by the people, stood-up and pleaded for Peter and the Apostles. He asked the council members to rescind their decisions; he said to them: “If the work these people are doing is of God, you cannot stop them, but if it is not of God, you will see them fail.” And after he spoke, the people overturned their decision to kill Peter and his colleagues. Imagine how God does His things; divinity had to speak through a respected voice, not through a regular and ordinary voice. Dear friend, you don't just need anybody to support you; you need a relevant voice to stand behind you. There are some people whose support can complicate your life and compound your problems. When wrong people identify with you, you lose your good identity. You don't just need anybody; you You don't need everybody to support you; you just need one relevant voice to stand behind you need relevant and God-sent helpers in your life. God knew that Pharaoh's baker was not relevant enough for Joseph's dream to materialize in the palace. So, He didn't spare his life, instead He spared the life of the cup-bearer because he was a relevant voice needed for the destiny of Joseph to materialize. BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST, I DECREE THAT THE PERSON HOLDING YOUR ANSWER WILL NOT DIE BEFORE THEY HELP YOU, IN THE NAME OF JESUS. BECAUSE THEY ARE HOLDING WHAT YOU NEED, MAY GOD SPARE THEIR LIFE IN JESUS NAME. Regardless of the number of people standing against you, you need a relevant voice behind you. No matter who is speaking against you or resisting your testimony, you just need one relevant voice behind you. There is no verdict that cannot be altered, there is no judgement that cannot be changed; all you need is a relevant voice to speak for you. Did you know that God can trouble witches to stand in your defence in their coven? When divine orchestration is at work, witches will go all out to assist angels in preserving your life and property. BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST, WHOEVER NEEDS TO SPEAK FOR YOUR LIFTING TO MANIFEST, I PUT THEM UNDER PRESSURE TO SPEAK IN THE NAME OF JESUS. WHOEVER NEEDS TO APPEND HIS/HER SIGNATURE FOR YOUR BREAKTHROUGH TO MATERIALIZE, I PUT THEM UNDER PRESSURE TO SIGN IN THE NAME OF JESUS. MAY GOD RAISE RELEVANT VOICES TO SPEAK FOR YOU, IN THE NAME OF JESUS. 2. BARNABAS. Acts 9:22 27 (GNB) “But Saul's preaching became even more powerful, and his proofs that Jesus was the Messiah were so convincing that the Jews who lived in Damascus could not answer him. After many days had gone by, the Jews met together and made plans to kill Saul, but he was told of their plan. Day and night they watched the city gates in order to kill him. But one night Saul's followers took him and let him down through an opening in the wall, lowering him in a basket. Saul went to Jerusalem and tried to join the disciples. But they would not believe that he was a disciple, and they were all afraid of him. Then Barnabas came to his help and took him to the apostles. He explained to them how Saul had seen the Lord on the road and that the Lord had spoken to him. He also told them how boldly Saul had preached in the name of Jesus in Damascus.” Saul, the great persecutor had just repented. He had killed countless numbers of Christians, and even supervised the execution of some very prominent Christian leaders. Expectedly, he had a very bad reputation among Christians. It was surprising to everyone that the murderer of Christians was now claiming to be a messenger of Christ. When the Jews heard he had repented, they didn't believe him. They desperately sought to kill him. They believed his new posture of 'repentance' was a ploy to execute more Christians. His repentance was seen as “bad news” by the believers. With the sordid development, some concerned disciples decided to help him by taking him out of the city by night and they let him down by the wall of the city, in a basket. This was the best they could do to help him. Soon after, Paul found his way to Jerusalem, and when he got there, he wanted to join the disciples. The disciples in Jerusalem were equally afraid to absorb him into their fold, because of his bad reputation. They did not believe he had repented. However, Barnabas stood for him; Barnabas took Saul to the Apostles and he began to speak on behalf of Saul. I believe Barnabas must have told Saul: “When we get there, don't say anything, let me do the talking. Relax, everything will be fine.” Barnabas told the people of Saul's unusual encounter with Christ, and how Saul started preaching the gospel in Damascus. Barnabas committed himself to being the publicist of Saul. After everything Barnabas said, the Apostles, without delay, allowed Saul to join their fold. Saul became a respected voice, so much so that the believers in Jerusalem started giving him protection. Paul became a name because of the support of Barnabas. The ministry and gifting of Paul enjoyed platform to manifest because Barnabas stood with him and stood for him. When a respected voice speaks for you, you enjoy reverence and admiration. It is not everybody that faces an interview panel before getting a job; it is not every person that gets a job that must write an aptitude test; it is not every person that must go through rigorous screening before his business proposal is accepted. What is the difference? Helpers! Child of God, rules can change. Protocols can be When a respected voice speaks for you, you enjoy honour broken. Laws can be amended. Certain doors can be forced open. Certain decisions can be reversed. Certain conclusions can be modified to accommodate the desires of some people. How can all these be? Through the manifestation of God-sent helpers! I PRAY FOR YOU IN THE NAME OF JESUS; WHEREVER YOUR ISSUE IS BEING DISCUSSED, MAY THE GOD THAT ANSWERS BY FIRE RAISE UP A VOICE THAT WILL SPEAK IN YOUR FAVOUR. IN ALL YOUR AFFAIRS, MAY YOUR ENEMIES NOT HAVE THE LAST SAY IN JESUS NAME. FROM TODAY, MAY RELEVANT MEN AND WOMEN BECOME COMMITTED TO SEEING THAT YOU ACHIEVE SUCCESS IN LIFE, IN THE NAME OF JESUS. I DECREE THAT MEN OF INFLUENCE WILL MAKE YOUR TESTIMONY THEIR PRIORITY FROM TODAY. YOUR SEASON OF REST BEGINS NOW! 3. REUBEN Genesis 37:18-21 (GNB) “They saw him in the distance, and before he reached them, they plotted against him and decided to kill him. They said to one another, "Here comes that dreamer. Come on now, let's kill him and throw his body into one of the dry wells. We can say that a wild animal killed him. Then we will see what becomes of his dreams." Reuben heard them and tried to save Joseph. “Let's not kill him," he said.” The brothers of Joseph, out of envy, jealousy and hatred had resolved to kill him. They were prepared to damn the consequences of snuffing life out of their kid brother. They could no longer stand his guts, they couldn't stand his braggadocios behaviour anymore, and they couldn't stand their father's preference for this 17year old lad. The only solution their wicked hearts could come up with was to kill him. No matter the passion you have to succeed, if your enemies are stronger than you, your passion will produce nothing. However, Reuben heard of the plans of his brothers, and he pleaded for Joseph. Reuben had to deliver Joseph from the plot of death. One man spoke, and nine men listened. But for the intervention of Reuben, Joseph's destiny could have been cut short. No matter the passion you have to succeed, if your enemies are stronger than you, your passion will produce nothing. No matter the size of your dream, you need someone who can distract or oppose your opposition so you can have a smooth ride on your road to success and fulfilment. I PRAY FOR YOU TODAY; MAY GOD RAISE A VOICE TO SPEAK FOR YOU. BY THE POWER IN THE NAME OF THE RESURRECTED CHRIST, MAY GOD GIVE YOU A MIRACULOUS ESCAPE FROM EVERY DESTRUCTIVE SET-UP. BEFORE YOUR ENEMIES EXECUTE THEIR PLANS, MAY GOD RAISE-UP SOMEONE TO SCATTER THE PLAN, IN THE NAME OF JESUS. FROM TODAY, YOU WILL NO LONGER BE A CASUALTY OF DEMONIC GANG-UP, IN THE NAME OF JESUS. 4. JOHN-THE-BAPTIST John 1:26-36 (GNB) “John answered, "I baptize with water, but among you stands the one you do not know. He is coming after me, but I am not good enough even to untie his sandals." All this happened in Bethany on the east side of the Jordan River, where John was baptizing. The next day John saw Jesus coming to him, and said, "There is the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world! This is the one I was talking about when I said, 'A man is coming after me, but he is greater than I am, because he existed before I was born.' I did not know who he would be, but I came baptizing with water in order to make him known to the people of Israel." And John gave this testimony: "I saw the Spirit come down like a dove from heaven and stay on him. I still did not know that he was the one, but God, who sent me to baptize with water, had said to me, 'You will see the Spirit come down and stay on a man; he is the one who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.' I have seen it," said John, "and I tell you that he is the Son of God.” The next day John was standing there again with two of his disciples, when he saw Jesus walking by. "There is the Lamb of God!" he said. This is perhaps one of the most obvious accounts in the Bible that reveals the positive effect of helpers in our lives. John-the-Baptist was already an established and respected voice before Jesus began his earthly ministry. John had a very large followership, and he was greatly admired and revered by the people. An established voice like John became the preparatory voice to make the way for Jesus. John was dedicated to advertising the ministry of Jesus; he was not ashamed to talk about the superiority of Jesus over him. Who introduces you determines the acceptance you enjoy. When an established voice begins to advertise you, your success will be easy At the beginning, it was John-the Baptist that made people interested in Jesus. The efforts of John-theBaptist reduced the stress of Jesus at the early stage of his ministry. Who introduces you matters; when an established voice becomes your advertiser, your success will be easy. When a man of worth tells people of your impact in his life, then, everybody begins to look up to you. When an authority in business or ministry says he learnt his success secrets from you, then, everyone begins to respect you. The appearance of relevant helpers makes life easy. When an established voice recommends you, no doubt, great doors will begin to open for you. You need an introducer. You need an advertiser. You need helpers! FROM TODAY, MAY PEOPLE WHO ARE AHEAD OF YOU IN YOUR CAREER, BUSINESS, AND MINISTRY BEGIN TO ADVERTISE YOU IN THE NAME OF JESUS. MAY IMPORTANT MEN AND WOMEN BEGIN TO SPEAK OF YOUR IMPORTANCE IN THE NAME OF JESUS. 5. JONATHAN 1 Samuel 20:1-4 (GNB) “Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah and went to Jonathan. “What have I done?" he asked. "What crime have I committed? What wrong have I done to your father to make him want to kill me?" Jonathan answered, "God forbid that you should die! My father tells me everything he does, important or not, and he would not hide this from me. It just isn't so!" But David answered, "Your father knows very well how much you like me, and he has decided not to let you know what he plans to do, because you would be deeply hurt. I swear to you by the living LORD that I am only a step away from death!" Jonathan said, "I'll do anything you want.” King Saul hated David with unbridled passion. It was so bad that he instructed his men that they must kill David by all means. However, the least expected person, Saul's son Jonathan, loved David greatly. The love Jonathan had for David was rather strange; everybody, including his father, expected him to hate David, because David was a threat to Jonathan's becoming the king over Israel. Jonathan consistently revealed to David the wicked plans of his father against him. Somehow, Jonathan knew that God was no more with his father, but was with David. Jonathan chose to align with the man whom God was for. At a point, he prayed for David saying: “May God be with you as He was with my father...” He knew that God had since left his father. 1 Samuel 20:13-15 “If he intends to harm you, may the LORD strike me dead if I don't let you know about it and get you safely away. May the LORD be with you as he was with my father! And if I remain alive, please keep your sacred promise and be loyal to me; but if I die, show the same kind of loyalty to my family forever.” Regardless of the words of his father, Jonathan was ready to die for David; he was ready to challenge his father because of David. I believe Jonathan must have told his father on one of their altercations: “Don't touch David; he has done nothing to you... Please allow the young man become what God wants him to become.” King Saul was greatly disappointed at his son's 'foolishness'; he couldn't understand why the heirapparent to the throne would passionately support his only adversary to the throne. Saul was so angry that he cursed his son Jonathan, because of his commitment to David. 1 Samuel 20:30 (CEV) “Saul was furious with Jonathan and yelled, "You are no son of mine, you traitor! I know you have chosen to be loyal to that son of Jesse. You should be ashamed of yourself! And your own mother should be ashamed that you were ever born.” But for Jonathan, Saul could have easily killed David; Jonathan made it his business to always reveal his father's secret to David. Jonathan was David's helper, and because of his help, David was able to ascend the throne that God promised him. I DECREE OVER YOUR LIFE; MAY GOD RAISE MEN AND WOMEN TO DEFEND YOU FROM PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL ATTACKS IN THE NAME OF JESUS. MAY GOD ALMIGHTY RAISE MEN AND WOMEN THAT WILL FRUSTRATE THE PLANS OF THE DEVIL TO DENY YOU OF YOUR CROWN, PROPHECY AND TESTIMONY. FROM TODAY, MAY YOUR DELIVERANCE AND SAFETY BECOME SOMEONE'S PRIORITY IN JESUS NAME. 6. ZIBA 2 Samuel 19:3-5 “The king asked him, "Is there anyone left of Saul's family to whom I can show loyalty and kindness, as I promised God I would?" Ziba answered, "There is still one of Jonathan's sons. He is crippled." "Where is he?" the king asked. "At the home of Machir son of Ammiel in Lodebar," Ziba answered. So King David sent for him.” David had finally become king of Israel, and he remembered his covenant with Jonathan and God, that he will surely reward Jonathan's kindness and ensure that his family is preserved. Meanwhile, Saul was now dead and Jonathan was equally dead, but David was not sure if Jonathan had any child alive. King David inquired from a certain man called Ziba; Ziba told David that indeed Jonathan's son was alive. The name of the young child was called Mephiboseth. This young boy was crippled at age five; when the news of his grandfather and father's death got to the palace. The nurse assigned to him carried him out of the palace for safety. As she was running with him, he fell from her hand and his legs were badly damaged. Consequently, he became lame. Now, this boy was about 20 years old. By the way, at age 20 in those days, he was old enough to be married and have his own son, but his condition had made him to live a life of non-achievement. Mephiboseth grew up a depressed young man who had all kinds of misfortunes befalling him; born into the palace but could not grow to enjoy the blessings of the palace. Indeed, life was cruel and unfair to this young man. Ziba brought Mephiboseth before David, and I believe he must have said: “This is the son of your late friend, Jonathan; King David, please show him kindness.” David transformed the life of Mephiboseth; he restored to him all the properties that belonged to his late father and grandfather. Friend, every person needs a 'Ziba' that will recommend him to his helper; you need a 'Ziba' to speak for you when you cannot speak for yourself; you need a 'Ziba' that will link you to those that will help you; you need a 'Ziba' that will act as an instrument for your restoration. I PROPHESY OVER YOUR LIFE TODAY; WHEREVER YOUR 'ZIBA' IS RIGHT NOW, I COMMAND HIM TO APPEAR AND BEGIN TO DO WHAT GOD HAS ASSIGNED HIM TO DO IN YOUR LIFE IN THE NAME OF JESUS. BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST, I PUT YOUR 'ZIBA' UNDER PRESSURE TO RECOMMEND YOU TO YOUR HELPERS IN THE NAME OF JESUS. Three What Happens When God-sent Helpers Enter Your Life 1. WHEN YOUR HELPER SHOWS UP, YOU ENJOY SPECIAL ASSISTANCE IN LIFE John 5:7 “The sick man answered, "Sir, I don't have anyone here to put me in the pool when the water is stirred up; while I am trying to get in, somebody else gets there first” F rom the account of the man by the pool of Bethesda, we can understand the reason for his prolonged affliction was because he had no helper to carry him into the pool. The man said: “I try to get there but before I get there, someone enters before me”. His lack of helpers kept him on one spot. When helpers enter your life, they carry your burdens. Helpers make your victory sweatless and graceful. When helpers enter your life, they carry your burdens. Another dimension to this insight is that helpers bring speed to your life. When your helpers are doing what God sent them to do in your life, you will become head-and-shoulder taller than your contemporaries. When helpers begin to manifest in your life, they pull you out of the crowd and set you on high. The man by the pool of Bethesda had an idea of what his life could become. He had a vision of all that he could achieve, but had no helper that would help him break the barrier that kept him on a spot for years. When your helper shows up, you rise up in life and move into a new season. Helpers pull you out of your old position. When your helper shows up, you are lifted in life, and you move into a new season. 2. WHEN YOUR HELPERS SHOW UP, THE POWER OF DELAY WILL DISAPPEAR Exodus 2:16 -19 (CEV) “When the seven daughters of Jethro, the priest of Midian came up to water their father's sheep and goats; some shepherds tried to chase them away, but Moses came to their rescue and watered their animals. When Jethro's daughters returned home, their father asked, "Why have you come back so early today?" They answered, "An Egyptian rescued us from the shepherds, and he even watered our sheep and goats." The text above tells us that anytime the daughters of Jethro went to fetch water for their father's sheep, there were some men who took delight in harassing them and ensuring that they didn't achieve the assignment they came for. The harassment continued until one day! There will always be that “One Day” when God will show Himself strong on behalf of His children. For the scripture declares that weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning! This was a day God decided to put an end to the experience of these young ladies. They would see the water they need, but fetching will be a problem; because of certain human beings who saw nothing wrong in being used of the devil to deny innocent people of their testimony. God decided to send Moses to the daughters of Jethro. Moses took up their fight, and made their assignment his responsibility. This is what helpers do; they make your testimony their responsibility. They make your fight their fight! The Bible tells us that after the intervention of Moses, the ladies returned home earlier than usual that day, and with a complete testimony. Their surprised father asked them: “How is it that ye are come so early?” And they replied him: “We met a helper!” When your helper shows up, you won't end-up like others. When helpers show-up, delays and barriers are broken, and you enter into your rest. Helpers are God's provision to take stress off our journey in life. If you think you can succeed alone, you are deceiving yourself. Come out of your deception and ask God to send you helpers! Life can never be difficult for the man who has helpers strategically positioned in his life by God. Life is not as hard as many of us think. The reason many people are complaining that life is hard is because they lack helpers. Life can never be difficult for the man who has helpers strategically positioned in his life by God. It is not everybody that struggles in life. This is a statement of fact. The wind of hardship does not blow everywhere. It is not everybody that experiences 'go-slow' in life. Life is not unfair to everybody. There are people who are already experiencing heaven while on this earth. There are people who are looking younger every day, it is not just one of the benefits of their DNA or a feature they inherited from their ancestors; it is as a result of the helpers in their lives. When you enjoy the ministry of helpers, you don't sweat and labour like others. Friend, when God-sent helpers show up in your life, you enter your season of rest. When you enjoy the ministry of helpers, you don't sweat and labour like others! 3. GOD-SENT HELPERS ARE COMMITTED TO YOUR TESTIMONY Mark 2:1-5 (GNB) “So many people came together that there was no room left, not even out in front of the door. Jesus was preaching the message to them when four men arrived, carrying a paralyzed man to Jesus. Because of the crowd, however, they could not get the man to him. So they made a hole in the roof right above the place where Jesus was. When they had made an opening, they let the man down, lying on his mat. Seeing how much faith they had, Jesus said to the paralyzed man, "My son, your sins are forgiven.” There are various kinds of helpers. There are those who help you because people prevailed on them to help you; there are those who help out of sympathy or pity; and there are those who help you because God has put your issue in their heart. It is the latter we call 'God-sent helpers'. When the favour of God rests on you, God sends this kind of helpers to you. Friends, helpers sent by God cannot be compared to helpers sent by men. To be candid, you don't need men-sent helpers; you need God-sent helpers. When you beg men to help you, they complain all through the help-process. When you attract help out of sympathy, the helper boasts about it and treats you like an invalid. But, when God sends you helpers, they feel honoured helping you. IN THE NAME OF JESUS, I DISCONNECT YOU FROM ANY MAN WHO WANTS TO TAKE THE GLORY OF GOD IN YOUR TESTIMONY. AS YOU READ THIS BOOK, MAY THE FAVOUR OF GOD REST ON YOU THAT WILL CAUSE YOU TO ATTRACT GOD-SENT HELPERS, IN THE NAME OF JESUS. God-sent helpers won't leave the scene of your life until they accomplish the purpose for which they have been sent. When God sends you helpers, they make your success their ministry. These kinds of helpers are not looking for your appreciation, or compliment; they are under a divine pressure to see that your story changes for the best. When God sends you helpers, they make your success their ministry There is something remarkable I observed in the story above. It was not the man's faith that healed him; it was the faith of his helpers. The Bible reveals to us that Jesus was moved by the faith of the men that carried him, and he pronounced healing on the man. This is what happened: Jesus was in town for a crusade. This man heard about the visit of Jesus but his condition couldn't allow him go to the crusade venue to get his healing. Something extraordinary happened; some men came from nowhere to make his miracle their responsibility. There was no record that they were friends or relatives of the crippled man. They must have told him: “We have cancelled all our engagements for today and for this week; until you get your miracle, we will do nothing else.” God-sent helpers will never leave you stranded; they are committed to blessing you and changing your story I believe that these four men came from the North, South, East and the West. The helpers told him: “By all means possible, your miracle must manifest today.” God-sent helpers will never leave you halfway; they are committed to blessing you and changing your story. I PRAY FOR YOU IN THE NAME OF JESUS, MAY YOUR HELPERS NOT GIVE UP ON YOU. MAY GOD SEND YOU HELPERS THAT WILL BE PREPARED TO GO ALL-THE-WAY FOR YOU. BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST, MAY GOD SEND YOU HELPERS, WHO DESPITE THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF YOUR WEAKNESSES AND LIMITATIONS WILL STICK WITH YOU UNTIL GOD CHANGES YOUR STORY. These men took the paralyzed man to the door of the crusade venue; the door was blocked. They took him to the window; there was no space to pass him through. They refused to be discouraged. They took a ladder and carried him on it to the roof of the conference centre where Jesus was having his miracle crusade. These men didn't care about their safety; imagine the risk of four (4) healthy men and a sick fellow climbing on a ladder! These were stubborn God-sent helpers who were on assignment to change the story of this sick man. They climbed the roof, and burst it open to create a space to pass the man through. This way, he could land at the pulpit area where Jesus was ministering. These men destroyed another man's roof to make sure that a certain cripple get his miracle. These were committed helpers! I DECREE UPON YOUR LIFE TODAY; MAY YOUR HELPERS NOT BE DISCOURAGED UNTIL YOU HAVE GOTTEN YOUR BREAKTHROUGH. I REBUKE THE SPIRIT OF DISCOURAGEMENT FROM THEIR LIVES. EVERY FORCE OF HELL THAT WANTS TO AMPLIFY LITTLE PROBLEMS AND MAKE YOUR HELPERS FEEL LIKE THEY ARE LOSING SO MUCH BY HELPING YOU, I BIND THAT FORCE IN THE NAME OF JESUS. Helpers sent to you by God are committed to your testimony; they will never give up on you until you are settled. I decree that in all areas of your life, you will start attracting such helpers from today. 4. WHEN HELPERS COME, YOUR LIGHT WILL SHINE AND YOUR UNIQUENESS WILL BE CELEBRATED. There are many talented and gifted people today who are still held back in the prison of obscurity, because they lack helpers. There are people who despite their effort, they are denied honour; their labour is never appreciated. They always give out their best, but no reward. As a slave in Potiphar's house, Joseph was not earning any salary (as a slave, he had been bought), yet he was the reason the house of Potiphar was blessed. Joseph made Potiphar to experience increase, yet, he got no reward for it. The young boy worked tirelessly to see that every new month was better than the previous. Potiphar was very happy, but nowhere did we see that he blessed Joseph with a gift. Despite Joseph's contribution, he was denied celebration. He was labouring for Potiphar to harvest. However, Joseph became an instant celebrity the day his helper remembered him. What Potiphar could There are many talented and gifted people today who are still held back in the prison of obscurity, because they lack helpers not do for Joseph in years, God did through a helper in one day. When his God-ordained helper remembered him, light showed on him. He had been interpreting other people's dreams; it was time for his dream to be interpreted. Friend, when you are surrounded by wrong people, your gifts will never be celebrated. There are people who have been investing their lives blessing people who have never appreciated them; interpreting everybody's dream, yet, theirs remain unattended to. If you are massively gifted and talented, but surrounded by people who can't translate your dreams to reality, then you are going through a prison experience. As a matter of fact, the devil destroys gifts by surrounding the holder with time wasters and destroyers. This is a prison experience. Prison is not just a location, prison is an experience. The devil destroys gifts by surrounding the holder with time wasters and destroyers. I DECREE THAT YOUR SITUATION IS CHANGING TODAY BY THE FIRE OF THE HOLY GHOST. Acts 12:6-10 “The night before Herod was going to bring him out to the people, Peter was sleeping between two guards. He was tied with two chains, and there were guards on duty at the prison gate. Suddenly an angel of the Lord stood there, and a light shone in the cell. The angel shook Peter by the shoulder, woke him up, and said, “Hurry! Get up!” At once the chains fell off Peter's hands. Then the angel said, “Tighten your belt and put on your sandals.” Peter did so, and the angel said, “Put your cloak around you and come with me.” Peter followed him out of the prison, not knowing, however, if what the angel was doing was real; he thought he was seeing a vision. They passed by the first guard station and then the second, and came at last to the Iron Gate that opens into the city. The gate opened for them by itself, and they went out. They walked down a street, and suddenly the angel left Peter.” From the passage above, we see that Peter was in prison, and he was surrounded by people who couldn't be of help to him. His hands were chained; his gifts were restricted; his dreams were constrained; the end seemed to have come. He was in a state of despondency and depression. But as God would have it, his helper arrived at the nick of time and that made all the difference. When your helper comes, your light must shine. And what happens when your light shines? Those who need what you carry will begin to find you; important people will begin to see your gifts; relevant people will begin to patronize your business; pertinent people will begin to recognize your value and significant individuals will know that you exist and seek to identify with you. The Bible tells us that as the light showed, the chains fell off Peter's hands, and his helper told him: “Put on your clothes.” Permit me to rephrase what his helper told him: “Your light has come; get back your dignity, get back your pride, and get back your glory.” When your helper comes, everything you have lost will be restored back to you. Maybe you were pushed out of an office or a position; maybe a juicy opportunity that was given to you was withdrawn mysteriously; maybe you have been demoted from an enviable office; just as it happened to Peter, I see a helper arrive for your sake to give you restoration in the name of Jesus. All you need to regain your pride in life is for a God-sent helper to show up in your life. BY THE ANOINTING OF THE HOLY GHOST, I DECREE OVER YOUR LIFE, YOUR HELPERS ARE SHOWING UP IN THE NAME OF JESUS. THIS SEASON, I CONNECT YOU TO THE HELPER THAT WILL BRING RESTORATION INTO YOUR LIFE. THROUGH THE STRANGE WORKING OF THE HOLY GHOST, IN LESS THAN 48 HOURS, I DECREE A CHANGE TO YOUR SITUATION. I PUSH YOU INTO YOUR DESTINY, IN THE NAME OF JESUS. The Bible also makes us understand that as Peter walked with the angel, the Iron Gate opened on its own accord. Can you catch what God is saying? The gate opened for Peter because his helper was with him. Declare these words with me: “IN THE NAME OF JESUS, MY LIFE IS CHANGING FROM TODAY. MY GOD IS SENDING INTO MY LIFE RELEVANT HELPERS THAT WILL OPEN EVERY CLOSE DOOR IN MY FAVOUR. MY DOORS OF BREAKTHROUGH ARE OPENED; MY DOORS OF SIGNS AND WONDERS ARE OPENED; MY DOORS OF SUPERNATURAL MANIFESTATIONS ARE OPENED; MY DOORS OF HEALING ARE OPENED; MY DOORS OF FINANCIAL OVERFLOW ARE OPENED; MY DOORS OF BUSINESS SUCCESS ARE OPENED; MY DOORS OF ACADEMIC EXPLOITS AND EXCELLENCE ARE OPENED; MY DOORS OF MARITAL SUCCESS AND EXCELLENCE ARE OPENED; MY DOORS OF FAVOUR AND RECOMMENDATION ARE OPENED; MY DOORS OF LAUGHTER AND PROMOTION ARE OPENED. IN THE NAME OF JESUS, MY DOORS ARE OPENED NOW!” Dear friend, who you follow, determines what follows you. When God releases helpers into your life, many doors open for you without you knocking. Life is not as hard as you think; when the right people come into your life, lifting comes into your life. When you have helpers in your life, many doors open for you without you knocking. 5. WHEN YOUR HELPER SHOWS UP, YOUR MISTAKES ARE OVERLOOKED, AND YOUR DISADVANTAGES WOULD NOT MATTER ANYMORE. As far as there is a God-ordained voice speaking for you, what you lack doesn't matter. When a great voice is speaking for you, you will become unconditionally preferred above every other person, in any place you find yourself. However, when a man lacks helpers, his weaknesses begin to work against him. People who are supposed to be of help to him see what he lacks and not his strength. This is the reason why a candidate with better qualification will be turned down after series of interviews. For such, it has always been “We would have employed you, BUT...”. What is said in essence is that: “We would have given you the job, but you don't have a HELPER to speak for you...” The applicant may have one or two things working against him, but with a helper in place, attention is shifted from his short-comings to his area of strength and uniqueness. The moment there is a voice speaking for you, what you don't have doesn't matter anymore. When God gives you a helper, you get things unconditionally. If everything will have to be deserved, then, the place for helpers is of no need. Through God-sent helpers, you enjoy unmerited favour. I know of a Chemical Engineer who was made a Bank Manager while the street was home to jobless chartered accountants. How did he manage to enjoy such growth? A helper is the answer. While on the job, he built capacity, and became a celebrated banker. Notwithstanding his background, somebody gave him the opportunity to shine, and his story changed forever. 6. WHEN HELPERS SHOW UP, ENEMIES BECOME POWERLESS. Your adversaries may not like your face, but the presence of your helpers will force them to withdraw their advances against you. When the President becomes your friend, all your enemies become his enemies, and anyone who doesn't want to incur the wrath of the President will have to be good to you. Complaints of victimization and unfair treatment in the office will become history when relevant helpers come into your life. Forces look at who is behind you before daring to attack you. Supernaturally and naturally, the power fending for you is as important as what will become of you. Forces look at who is behind you before daring to attack you. When a great pillar is behind you, you become a 'touch-not' material. Four What Must I Do To Attract Helpers 1. SEEK TO PLEASE GOD. Psalms 34:10 “The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but THEY THAT SEEK THE LORD SHALL NOT WANT ANY GOOD THING.” Y our love for God is what releases the favour of God, and when the favour of God is upon a man, he naturally enjoys help. When you focus on God, He makes you attractive to men. When you follow God passionately and devotedly, you will never lose-out in life. Every genuine God-lover is a high-achiever. Loving God without reservation is what brings about elevation. You need a heart for God to access the wealth of God. Every genuine God-lover is a high-achiever Scripture says: “The path of the just is a shining light...” The lifestyle of a righteous man attracts the attention of people; God uses the life of the just to prove to others that it pays to serve Him faithfully. The man who focuses on God will inevitably attract good to himself. You need to come to a place where nothing and no one can take the place of Jesus in your life; no friend, no relationship, no business and no family. When you get to this dimension, you will be amazed at how God will aggressively advertise you to your generation. Your love for God determines how far He goes with you Before you gain access to a strange dimension of favour, God will test your love-walk with Him. God said to Abraham: “Give me thy son, thy only son whom thou love.” I asked myself, if God needed a son for sacrifice so badly, why didn't He ask for Ishmael? But, God was actually trying to check between Him and Isaac whom Abraham loves the most. He was saying to Abraham, “I want to know today, who is more important to you?” And, as Abraham was about to kill the child, God said: “Stop! Now I know you love me more than everything and anything.” Isaac was just a test for Abraham to get the “real” thing. For many of us, God gave us an Isaac, but because we hold too tightly to him, He decided to withhold the real thing. For some people; relationships, marriage, business, career and all sorts have taken them away from God. Your love and zeal for God determines how far He goes with you. When you make a commitment to obey and serve God excitedly, prosperous and pleasurable living becomes a natural occurrence in your life. There is a sure reward for devotion and commitment to God. But, finding it hard to serve and obey Him wholeheartedly will only lead to frustration. To follow God is to attract the best life can offer. Many of us are simply practising religion, we don't really know God. Many of us are mere church-goers with no relationship with the creator and no clue of what He expects of us. Many of us are just being political with God; we think attendance and show-off in church will qualify us for His blessings. Your love for God is what releases the favour of God There are many people in church who are not in a covenant relationship with God; they are in church, but they are not in Christ. Their Christianity is Christianity of convenience, not Christianity of covenant. This is the reason why they experience hardship and profitless labour. Friend, you can't keep doing the wrong thing and expect to get the right result. You can't be living your life the way you like and expect to get the best from God. There are people who are messing up with sin, saying: “God understands”. You must understand that God is too pure to accommodate the slightest impurity. It is not really hardship or circumstances that make people sin, it is the state of their hearts. Your stand with God should be obvious in your daily walk with Him. Dear friend, I know you are trusting the Almighty God for great miracles and turn-around, but I dare ask you today: are you really sincere and committed in your Christianity? Are you really sure you are living a life that brings glory to the Master? You need to examine your Christianity by finding answers to the questions below: When people see you and interact with you, what does your life reflect? Carnality or spirituality? Do you truly represent Jesus Christ everywhere you go? Can God really boast about you like He did concerning Job in the bible? Is your life drawing people to God or is it driving people from God? Are you not just another hypocrite using the Bible as a coverup? In the secret and the privacy of your life, is Jesus really Master of your life? Is your life preaching the right message of Christ? Will anybody see the way you talk, dress and do business, and desire to be a Christian? Until you start representing God, there are lots of things He will never do through you and for you. Until there is a visible difference between the way you act and talk and the way unbelievers act and talk, God will not be committed to beautifying your life. Until you set your heart to represent Jesus Christ everywhere and anywhere, God will not set Him mind on bless you. When your life becomes a shining example of Christ to God and to men, then you are guaranteed of Heaven's supplies and assistance in all the issues of your life. Your passion for God determines your portion from Him The man who seeks to touch God's heart will never lack anything good in life. When you become passionate about doing what pleases Him, God begins to make you appealing to men. When you touch the heart of God, He in return touches the heart of people connected to your affairs. When you delight in the things of God, He makes you a delight to men. People who genuinely focus on God enjoy divine help from men, because favour with God will always translate to favour with men. A heart for God is the password to getting resources from God. Your passion for God determines your portion from Him. A sincere heart for the ways of God is the password to His resources. Your heart for God determines your place in God. The sinful life is the losing life. Sin stops divine support. Sin kills divine assistance. To keep living in sin is synonymous to signing up for a burden-full life. The Bible rightly expresses that “When people's lives pleases the Lord, even their enemies are at peace with them.” (Proverbs 16:7). Sin stops divine support. Sin kills divine assistance Therefore, to attract the needed destiny helpers, you MUST quit sinful living and live a righteous life. Stop giving excuses that you are living in sin because of hardship or terrible conditions. There are people in worse conditions who are living rightly. There is no excuse for iniquitous and sinful living. No excuse is good enough to end in hell. More so, you can't be at the middle of the road in your stand with God. You are either 100% with God, or you are 100% with the devil. When you take your stand with Him, he exalts you above your equals. The bible says in 2 Chronicle 15:2 (AMP) - "...The Lord is with you while you are with Him. If you seek Him [inquiring for and of Him, craving Him as your soul's first necessity], He will be found by you; but if you [become indifferent and] forsake Him, He will forsake you.” When you take your stand with God, he exalts you above your equals. If you disregard God's instruction and associate with people who do things that irritate Him; if your service to God lacks commitment - YOU ARE LIVING IN SIN, AND YOU HAVE DECLARED YOURSELF AN ENEMY OF GOD. Please don't cry foul to living a depressed life if the aforementioned are your ways. You need to amend your lifestyle to suit God's expectations. There is no man that stands for God that lacks in life There is no man that stands for God that lacks in life. The righteous way is always the winning way. To attract help from above, seek to do things that make God happy, and run from things that will attract His wrath upon you. You must understand that the enemy of quality is impurity. The goldsmiths with tell you that impurity reduces the value of gold. This is why gold has to go through fire so as to eliminate the impure materials. Crude oil needs to be refined to command a greater value in the market. Likewise, there are little impurities in a man's life that killls qualitative living. Quality resources from God cannot come to a man who takes delight in impurity. God would have taken you to higher heights, but there are some impurities that are keeping you down. These impurities could include: bitterness and unforgiveness, insincere and deceitful Christianity, lack of commitment to the service of God, inconsistency with tithing, immoral living and ungodly relationships, pride and arrogance, lying lips et cetera. I encourage you today to make a decision to truly seek God. Make a commitment to really live a life sold-out to God. Make a commitment to live above sin. Make a commitment that sin will not rubbish your destiny. Make a commitment today to truly represent Jesus in this generation. 2. SEEK THE GOOD OF OTHER PEOPLE. Songs of Solomon 8:6 “…Jealousy is as cruel as the grave…” Luke 2:14 (Tree of Life Bible) “Shalom [peace and favour] to men of good will...” Develop a culture of celebrating the success and greatness of other people. What you genuinely celebrate you speedily attract. Whatever good thing happens in the life of other people, it is God that is at work. Give God all the glory; don't fight or speak against His work. There is absolutely nothing you can do that will make you the only person God will give success and wealth; you are not the only person God created. Learn to accommodate and celebrate the success and good happenings in the life of other people. Life cannot revolve around you alone. Learn to accommodate and celebrate the success and good happenings in the life of other people Interestingly, there are people who “THANK GOD” for the misfortunes of other people. Bad news sells and spreads very fast in our society today. For example, a misfortune suddenly befalls someone who has been very successful and you hear certain people say: “God has caught him,” “Every day for the thief”, “Finally God has exposed him...” and all kinds of negative remarks. Friends, we must be careful not to incur the anger of God through our negative response to the misfortunes of people. To enjoy an unhindered flow of the grace of God, don't wish people evil. Don't be threatened by the testimony of other people. Don't allow the success of other people make you feel like a failure. Dear friend, when the success of other people causes you pain and heartache, then you have to cry to Holy Spirit to work on your heart else you will be the one fighting the good things from coming into your life. God needs to deliver you from the tendency of being threatened by the success of other people. When Jesus was born, the angel of the Lord visited the shepherds and said something very powerful: “PEACE ON EARTH AND FAVOUR TO MEN OF GOODWILL...” What does this tell us? The favour and peace of God comes only to men of goodwill men with good heart. Therefore, if you must go far with God and if He must do great things through you, you must fight jealousy, competition and bitterness. There are many people in authority that cannot stand their subordinates being as successful as they are; they desperately want to be the only shinning lights this is 100% witchcraft. So long everybody around them is average, they feel mighty. When you try to fight what God is doing in the life of someone else, you ruin your greatness Lots of people today who are doing well get easily threatened by those who are coming behind them. This was the problem of King Saul; God was lifting a young man and Saul could not stand it, he wanted to terminate the destiny of the young man. When you try to fight what God is doing in the life of someone else, you ruin your greatness. When you maintain a good heart towards people, God will champion your course. If you take delight in plotting the downfall of another man; watch out for yours. Any individual that tries to stop the glory of another will incur the express judgment of God. Whenever you see privileges and opportunities that will be of help to other people inform them and do your best to make things easier for them. Never withhold good from anyone. What you sow, you will reap. If you need a higher voice to speak for you, you must be a good voice speaking for others. Dear friend, fight selfishness and self-centeredness; what you make happen for others will happen to you. The prayer you pray for others will be answered in your life a thousand-fold. There are individuals who become bitter with God for blessing other people, and not them. This is the reason why God can never allow them move from their present level. You must build up your mind to be joyful and celebrate the goodness of God anywhere, even if you are not a beneficiary. What helps you to maintain a positive attitude towards the blessing of others is when there is consistency in your fellowship with God. As you maintain consistency in your walk with Him, jealousy and hatred for those He is blessing naturally If you need a higher voice to speak for you, you must be a good voice speaking for others dies. Instead, when you see Him blessing others, you celebrate and appreciate Him because you know yours is possible. Don't ever try to fight what God is doing in somebody's life. Invest your joy in the joy of others. If as a spinster or bachelor, your friend is getting married, look for how you can make the wedding celebration sweet and trouble-free. Just spread the aroma of blessing to those around you. You must fight the spirit of jealousy and bitterness and learn to genuinely celebrate good things happening in the lives of others. This is what pushes the heart of God to your direction. When you celebrate with other people, you are drawing closer to your day of celebration. The prayer you pray for others will be answered in your life a thousand-fold Don't just exist, be a solution everywhere you find yourself. Be a blessing to people. Don't allow your personal challenges prevent you from being a blessing to people. Someone's life should be better because of you. At least, one person should bless God daily for your life. Friends, a man who is always providing solutions and blessing people cannot end up miserably. His life will always be a testimony. If you take delight in plotting the downfall of another man; watch out for yours 3. BE ADDICTED TO GOD'S PRESENCE James 5:16 (Murdock Translation) “For great is the efficacy of the prayer which a righteous man prayeth.” When you look up to God, you go up in life. The easiest way to struggle in life is to look unto men for help. Real help comes directly from God, using men or women He chooses to use for that purpose. No man will help you except it is approved by God. God's Word in Lamentations 3:37 (NLT) says “Who can command things to happen without the Lord's permission?” The reason behind many promise-andfail and near-success syndrome is because God is leftout in the scheme of things. Friend, life and living is more spiritual than physical, and the man who knows how to control this world from the spirit realm will always be in command of the natural. When you maintain a communion with God, His presence will shine upon you, and when His presence rests on you, you attract the help of men. Nothing attracts help to a man like the presence of God at work. The man who knows how to control this world from the spirit realm will always be in command of the natural. Strategic positioning is good; commonsense manoeuvrings may be nice, but none of the above can be compared to being divinely favoured for recommendation. God will never elevate someone who is a stranger to His presence. He is not a blind promoter, and He is not a confused lifter of men. God will only release His favour on men and women He can trust. The Almighty God is committed to advertising men and women who are addicted to His presence. Consistent fellowship with God is unavoidable and inevitable if you must enjoy favour and divine help in this world. As you spend time with Him, He reveals uncommon secrets of success and divine direction that will rightly position you for goodly benefits. The benefits of God's presence are enormous. It doesn't matter how battered your life presently is, when you begin to place value and premium on God's presence, things will begin to turn-around for you. When you make it a habit of spending quality time in His presence daily, you graduate to becoming a carrier of His presence. His presence begins to follow you wherever you go, and this is the dimension where living becomes pleasurable and delightful. It is the presence of God that gives you uncommon access to any place. The presence of God is the unique fragrance that rests on a person who spends quality and consistent time with God. To carry divine presence is to exude divine fragrance. You don't just carry divine presence by coming to church alone; divine presence accompanying you is the reward you get for your personal devotion and fellowship with the Holy Spirit. Your strength in battle is the undying connection you have with His presence. The presence of God is the cure for the pressures of life. The presence of God is the cure for the pressures of life Friend, when God decorates you, you become a delight to everyone. It is His divine presence that provokes divine rub-off. When you are a man of His presence, His fragrance will go with you wherever you go. When His presence rubs-off on you, you can never be hidden in the crowd; relevant men will struggle to do you good. Also, you must understand the place of spiritual warfare. You must understand that there is something called spiritual wickedness in high places. To be ignorant of the workings of the devil is to remain his captive. Demonic oppression is undeniably real. Trying to play 'cool' with the devil doesn't excuse you from his attack-list. To expect the enemy not to attack you because you don't attack him is like expecting a lion not to eat you because you don't eat lions. It is heartbreaking that there are people who still believe, despite the obvious in our world today, that satanic oppression and witchcraft harassment is a false idea. There are people who assume it is ignorance that makes us say witchcraft attack and demonic oppression is real. Dear friend, you must not allow the enemy blind your spiritual eyes, and thus making you a victim of his wicked works. The devil doesn't show you pity because you are ignorant of his work; rather he thrives on your ignorance to perpetuate his merciless acts. Satan does not pity people. In your daily living, you must understand the place and the value of spiritual warfare; praying with authority and placing a demand on the Word of God to exercise your authority as His child over every contrary power and agenda. Your mouth is the instrument God has given you to control your destiny, when you fail to use it, the plans of the enemy will prevail. Spiritual battles cannot be won with human logic. They must be addressed with utmost spiritual strategies. It is important to note that spiritual know-how is one weapon no devil can resist. You must wage war against the spoilers and swallowers of destiny. You must bind the powers of endless sweating and profitless labour and toiling. Because favour is one of the prerequisite for a blessed life, every anti-favour element must be dealt with. You must frustrate their assignment and violently rebel against their operations. Ask God to raise a voice for you in every place your name or issues are mentioned. You must command every negative voice speaking against you to become silent in the name of Jesus. Promotion and restoration are products of a good voice working in a person's favour while the opposite is born out of negative voice(s) speaking loudly against such destiny. Spiritual battles cannot be won with human logic; they must be addressed with spiritual strategies. As we proceed to the next chapter of this book, I urge you to pray the anointed prayer points in faith. This is your season for a mighty turn-around, in the name of Jesus. Five Prophetic Prayer Bullets Job 22:27-29 “Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows. Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways. When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up.” IMPORTANT INSTRUCTION: Pray each prayer for a minimum of 5 minutes. Also, I particularly advise that you take these prayers aggressively during your midnight prayer sessions, and quote related scriptures from God's Word to back-up your prayers and enforce your covenant rights, as you call on God and make decrees in the name of Jesus Christ.

Join SULE EMMANUEL'S YOUTH MENTORSHIP SCHEME H i, my name is Sule Emmanuel. I am a youth; an African youth, and I connect with the challenges the average African youth have to go through daily to give expression to their dreams. Most times, it appears that everything around you is just designed to choke your dreams and compel you to fail in life. I understand these challenges, because I had to contend with loads of them to get to where I am today. I am very passionate about young people, as I have come to understand that they are the productive force of any nation, and despite this obvious reality, they are the least understood, and often ignored. My passion for Youth Development has seen me facilitating youth conferences over the years, mentoring thousands of youths across Africa and beyond, and releasing transformational and changeinspired products that are centred on Youth Empowerment and Destiny Fulfilment. I encourage every young person desirous to make impact in this generation to sign up for my FREE mentorship program by filling the Mentorship Request on the website, and maintain a close contact with me.
