Hello Friends, I am glad to inform you today that God has make a provision for us to overcome in life. One of the instruments of daily victory is praise and worship and we will be talking about that today. My question to you today is this: Are you experiencing the victory of praise in your life. Have considered the power and privileges available to you through praise? Let me show you few of these privileges from the word of God. Praise is an instrument of warfare (2 Chronicle 20)In the story in this book, we read about how a great army of aggressors came against King Jehoshaphat and his people.
“It came to pass after this also, that the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them other beside the Ammonites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle”
Jeshoshaphat has no idea how to handle this great company, so his first reaction was fear. However, he quickly turned unto God:
“And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek the LORD, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah” (2 Chronicle 20: 3).
Jeshoshaphat confessed his trust in the Lord
“O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee”. (2 Chronicle 20: 12).
Are you faced with some giants in your life right now? Are you afraid because some sudden situations has surfaced in your life that you have no idea how to tackle? Well, I have good news for you today: Follow the example of King Jehoshaphat and turn to the Lord. Confess your trust in Him, praise Him and harness the power imbedded in praise and it will surprise you what the Lord will do.Praise was the strategy of victory King Johoshaphat used to overcome his enemies. Let’s read how it happened:
“And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the LORD, worshipping the LORD. 19And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites, and of the children of the Korhites, stood up to praise the LORD God of Israel with a loud voice on high. 20And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper. 21And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the LORD, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the LORD; for his mercy endureth for ever. 22And when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten. 23For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another” (2 Chronicle 20: 16-23).
Praise is still a weapon of victory till now. When God say we should praise him, it is not because He is in need of praise. He only wants us to focus on him through our praise instead of focusing on our problems or meditating on the power our enemies.As you decide to live a lifestyle of praise the Lord from today on, invisible walls of opposition will crumble in your life. God will set ambushments against the enemies of your destiny and victories will not depart from your life in Jesus Name.Remember, praise is a weapon of war and Life is a battle as we know, so you will need to master the art of praise through daily practice.God bless you guide you into your victory this day! See you tomorrow! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

«Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness! ’» (Matthew, 7:21-23).

For several days we have been discussing the blessedness of ministry. We established that through ministry we become entitled for continuous flow of God’s mercy. Ministry to others always fills our lives with blessings. But we shouldn’t be motivated by the desire to get God’s blessings; our motive is love for God and people which God sends into your life.There are three main types of believers: observers, consumers/users and servants. What type of a believer are you? What are you: an observer, a user or a servant? Today we will attempt to establish what distinguishes observers and consumers from servants.

«Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God can’t be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one. But each one is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed. Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin; and the sin, when it is full grown, brings forth death. Don’t be deceived, my beloved brothers. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow.» (James 1:13-17).

What are we going to do with the truth we have heard – the truth about importance and crucial nature of prayer? We must change! First, we need to ask God to help us to pray constantly. Second, we may ask other people you consider being strong in prayer to pray for you and help you put your prayer life in order. There is no shame in asking someone to pray for you.I remember a period in my life when I had lost a desire to pray; it seemed boring and my prayer seemed lifeless. And for some reason I wasn’t able to change it.
