Activating Mind Power For Success

The quality of your life on earth as a Christian is dependent on your mental productivity. Mental productivity comes about by effective investment in the mind. Success refers to all-round prosperity according to Joshua1:8. This month, God’s word has come to us saying that our success mentality is working mightily but it is our responsibility to provoke the fulfillment of this word. Mentality refers to your thought-pattern. Your thought-pattern refers to the way you respond to challenges i.e. your first reaction to a problem.

Success mentality is a process. Unlike salvation which is momentous and can happen in a day, mental excellence is a process, it cannot take place in a day. Mental excellence comes about by mental empowerment. Empowered minds take empowered steps. Until your mind is empowered, you will not be relevant in the society. Your mind is empowered by God’s word.

Power is the capacity or ability to achieve desired results. Mind power leads to mental productivity and mental productivity eventually leads to societal relevance!

How do you activate your mind power for success?

Addiction to God’s word (Psalms 119:130): Don’t ever assume that you cannot do anything, based on God’s word in Romans 12:1-2, you can achieve anything you want by activating your mind through God’s word. You overcome the culture of failure around you by renewing your mind with God’s word. Mind empowerment is not a hit and run thing but a process. Also, you can control your circumstances by speaking God’s word (1 Peter 2:24, Philippians 4:19). Always speak God’s word to influence your situation to your favor. You cannot enjoy success mentality until you are a person of the word.
The force of prayer (Daniel 2:16-19): The word of God reshapes your thinking but prayer provokes the power needed to put your mind to work (Proverbs 2:1-6). Prayer stirs up the soluble treasures in your mind and precipitates the virtues of your mind (1 Corinthians 2:16)

Prayer line: O Lord, I provoke all the hidden virtues in my mind to come to lime-light in Jesus name. Amen!

Weekly Message: The Covenant Of Generational Success

Everything God is doing, He does it with a generational perspective. Anything that will last must have a generational undertone. Anything that will survive the hostility of the times must be willing to serve a generation (Luke 1:50).

What does it mean to access generational success?

It simply means to think generational.

To think generational is to think about the future
To think generational is to think beyond your life
To think generational is to think beyond your family
To think generational is to think posterity and not prosperity

The sons of past Nigerian leaders are no where today because their fathers did not think posterity. Your riches will only last forever if you think generational. A prosperity that does not have a future undertone is futile, it may come quickly but it does not last forever. Posterity may take time but it will last forever (Isaiah 2:3)

When God deals with people, He deals with them according to generation (Psalms 109:13). When God blesses, He also visits them with a generational blessing. He treats according to generation (Genesis 50:23, Deuteronomy 23:2)

What is the demand of God on us for this generational success?

For us to reverse and become a light to gentiles (Luke 16:8, Ecclesiastics 10:6-8)
To serve Him, He is looking for those that will serve Him for life (Psalms 2:7-8, Mark 6:23-24, Esther 7:2-3)

Important quotes:

Hide your certificate if it cannot transform a life
No one is capable of keeping you captive until he locates your brain.

Prayer line: O lord today, I receive divine inspiration for generational impact in the name of Jesus. Amen!

Weekly Message: Becoming A True Soldier Part 10

No matter what you do, don’t ever forget about rapture. Always remember that your Christianity will be a waste if you miss heaven. It would have been better for you if you had committed all the sins in this world instead of answering a Christian and then you miss heaven because you got carried away with the activities of the church and failed to meet up with God’s standard.

You will fail to make heaven if you live in carnality. The end point of carnality is death; once you lose your touch of spirituality you are carnal. It is not by going to church but by living in purity that you can make heaven. No civilization can deal with the ancient words. God’s word contains His standard and His standard cannot fail and His word is his measuring standard.

When you study Matthew 7:22 from the Message Bible, you will find out that divine supply is not equal to divine presence. Divine presence is costly and is a requirement for you as a true soldier. You can only draw strength to fight the good fight from God’s presence. A good soldier is not afraid to fight the good fight (1 Timothy 6:12). To arrive as a good soldier of Christ you must fight the good fight and you must fight it till death.

What the true soldier of Christ must fight?

Carnality
Ungodly influence
Manifestations of the flesh
Satanic systems

A true soldier must be willing to die while fighting the good fight (Colossians 3:3). In order to make this fight, you must decide to be on the lord’s side (Exodus 32:26). A true soldier’s marriage or academic or skills is not for his comfort. If God is still struggling to use your beauty or your time or your resources – forget it! You are not a true soldier! A true soldier must sacrifice his life on God’s altar (2 Timothy 4:6). A true soldier performs only for God’s applause (2 Timothy 4:7-8)

Prayer line: Father today I receive the grace to fight the good fight as a true soldier of Christ in Jesus name. Amen!
