CONQUERING SATANIC LIMITATION, PART 2

“For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jer 29:11(NIV)

In whatever field or industry you find yourself in life, you must be conscious of this truth; the plan that God has for you is far beyond description and the objective of the enemy is to kill this glorious plan. Even men of God whom you come across also testify to the reality of the greatness of the future ahead of you but there is an assigned force from hell whose sole agenda is to hinder this great plan. How do you know? Perhaps, at every point in time when any good or remarkable thing is to occur, there is awaiting ambassador of darkness fully briefed to end that dream.

Noteworthy is the fact that the brighter and bigger your star is, the fiercer and more terrible the battle and oppositions you encounter. There is battle in life you cannot afford to lose, it is the battle against limitation which could arise from any quarters, but my prayer for you is that you would overcome this battle and your mission in life shall be accomplished in the name of Jesus.

“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth”. 3 John:2

 The writer of this epistle was painted in clearer terms about the intention of God for His children; in like manner, permit me to rephrase this scripture that the devil’s wish, above all things, is that you fail. I would be a fool to think that the enemy has good intentions for my destiny, no! The enemy desires that you will not hit your goal; his wish above all things is that you will make marital mistakes beyond remedy which would eventually jeopardize your destiny, his intent is that you will live a life of squalor and abject poverty, also that you remain in the congregation of the ignorant so that he can continually take advantage of you. It is your duty to fight against these satanic limitations, and you will conquer in Jesus name.

THE SCOURGE OF SATANIC LIMITATION

A man who is limited is one with a bleak future regardless of his religious beliefs except he prays himself out of his situation and this involves praying the right prayer, not until this is done there can hardly be a way out of his calamity. A limited man is caged and hindered notwithstanding his certification, oratory, prowess, influence or affluence.

A limited man operating under the spell of satanic atmosphere is confined to point which makes life frustrating, therefore, I pray for you that any form of limitation, which is militating against where the Lord has destined you to be, is removed now in the name of Jesus. So many who are supposed to be prominent personalities on earth have been reduced to commoners under the weight of satanic circumstances; they are supposed to be great in life but they have been restrained. Permit me to quickly add that your spirituality or how religious you are has nothing to do with this.

“Because it was our will to come to you. [I mean that] I, Paul, again and again [wanted to come], but Satan hindered and impeded us.” 1 Thess 2:18 (AMP)

Sometime ago, I met with a brother in one of our services and immediately the Spirit of the Lord revealed to me that he was not meant to be in this country but somehow had been incapacitated. I then asked him to get his traveling passport and broke the chain of limitation after which I asked him to re-apply and that was the end; he was later sharing with me how the embassy invited him over for his visa. That was how he got his breakthrough. The Bible says, ‘Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever’, I decree, every limitation in your life shall die in the name of Jesus. So many here who should be calling the shots in their various fields of endeavor have been ensnared and limited in the pursuit of their destiny assignment. Alas! There is a power (demonic force) questioning their aspirations; I pray for you that every power holding you, I command them to break their hold over your life in the name of Jesus

CONQUERING SATANIC LIMITATION,PART 1

“Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations”.Jer 1:5

 

“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end”.  Jer 29:11

“Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.” Isa 49:16

From the last scripture, it is evident that God has a list of you and I, and the preceding scripture tells us that we have been enlisted to succeed, advance, flourish, shine and to make it. This shows that God has plans for us. However, you need to realize that as God has plans to make the best out of your life, likewise the enemy (satan) has devised his own scheme to frustrate this plan. In other words, that you are a believer does not preclude you from attack from these evil perpetrators. This is my prayer for you; where you are supposed to be and you have been limited, the hand of the Almighty God will catapult you to that desired level in Jesus name.

In very simple terms, limitation could mean restriction or imposition of unnecessary delay. But the intent of God for His children is to succeed, shine and prosper; the bible says “…thoughts of peace…” He wants your life to be a testimony; “…to give you an expected end”, this is the plan of God for your life but the devil has plans also, his plan basically is to truncate that “expected end” that God has for you. He wants to hinder you and it is your duty to fight and conquer him.

“We wanted very much to come to you, and I, Paul, tried again and again, but Satan prevented us.” 1 Thess 2:18

The assertion of Apostle Paul in this regard helps to have another perspective on the damaging effect of satanic limitation which I will expound on very shortly. If Apostle Paul could boldly say that “…satan hindered us”, then you have to understand that you must fight to attain what God has ordained you to be. Paul had this extra-ordinary zeal for the work of the gospel and the devil knowing the extent and possible impact of his mission went ahead to orchestrate men and circumstances as impediments to the realization of his purpose. 

“This [ambition] is the reason why I have so frequently been hindered from coming to visit you.” Rom 15:22 (AMP)

There is a goal (spiritually, physically, financially) which God has set for your advancement in destiny but satanic opposition will come in confrontation with that purpose but it shall not stand in Jesus name. God is not limited in His plans; His lofty agenda is irrevocable and if truly you are a child of God, it is your duty to fight and face every organized opposition from the pit of hell.

EFFECTS OF SATANIC LIMITATION

The word “limitation” has negative connotations like unlawful stoppage, imposed restriction or being confined to a marked circumference. Notable is the fact that life is full of battles arising from the peculiar assignment God has given every individual and the architect of this mayhem is primarily the devil ably assisted by his wicked subjects.

Satanic limitation can strip a man of all benefits and privileges associated with his destiny thus making same to lag behind in the schedule of life. The implication of this is that the victim cannot stand or rub shoulders with his colleagues.

“I have even seen servants riding horseback like princes—and princes walking like servants!” Ecc 10:7 (NLT)

This particular brother was born a prince but an unfortunate event took place and his once-upon-a-time servant is now the “prince” while he (the original prince) is left in his helpless state. Surely, something beyond the ordinary took place. This same fate is what many people are battling with today and there seems to be no one to help salvage their destiny; beloved, never underestimate how far-reaching satanic limitation can be. There is an invisible chain and power positioned at every juncture of your destiny to halt and slow you down; there are forces that are acquaintances and they are familiar with the geometry of your destiny. Many today who ought to be high fliers in life have found themselves in the humble state of life; they have been limited due to an invisible chain or chains of limitation holding them. If you have been limited in any way, I decree freedom for you in Jesus name. Whatever thing the enemy has put in your way to serve as impediment, I remove them now and release upon you, speed and grace to overtake in the name of Jesus.

ROAR TO SOAR, PART 2

A lot of people today are tied to the tradition of maintaining a particular circumference in the pursuant of their destiny assignment but unfortunately they end-up in a fix. This is another year and it will be a taboo if you are held ransom by the same issue that stopped your manifestation last year.  It is only at the altar of prayer that you can be empowered to soar to heights you least expected. Beloved, this world is a world of strive. It is only the prayerful that can be separated from the hitches of this world. The Bible declares that: 

"…cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life." Gen 3:17 (NIV)

You have not prayed enough that why you have not receive the revelation that would bail you out. I cannot be stranded in destiny because I know how to press the right prayer button. Life is not by struggling but by auction and it is only in the place of prayer that the Holy Spirit can infuse you with power to soar in destiny, will you allow the enemy to deprive you of your healing, miracles and breakthrough again this year? Any area of your life under any satanic manipulation, making you to run from pillar to post shall be disgraced by the power of the Living God in Jesus name and as you develop the act of praying, the revelation that will cause a turn-around in your life, the Lord will give it to you in the name of Jesus. Through the power of prayer, life has become easy for me and life can be easy for you if you are ready to settle those scores in prayer.

"Can anyone bring charges against me? If so, I will be silent and die." Job 13:19 (NIV)

If you keep your mouth shut concerning the issues of your destiny, you might rot and die in that deplorable state because your mouth through scriptural declarations is one of the gate-ways to the manifestations of your expected end. What are your confessions even in your prayer closet because you will surely reap the dividends of every careless declaration? Beloved, no matter how badly bad your situation now, do not allow your mind to be a fountain of negative thoughts and confessions rather  refine those thoughts in prayers by the help of the Holy Spirit because whatever you say (confess or declare) consciously or unconsciously before God, that is what He will stamp into authority.

“Now tell them this: 'As surely as I live, declares the Lord, I will do to you the very things I heard you say.” Num 14:28-29 (NLT)

What are you saying about your wife and children, your career, and your finance? Your negative confession and conclusion in this regards could be liken to a fetus in the womb of a woman that would soon turn to full human being with time; until you develop the act of roaring you are not going anywhere? As you season your mouth with the right word from the word of God, your star will shine brightly and where you have been packed aside by the system of this world, you will be beckoned up on by the reason of the revelation that God will put in your hands in Jesus name. 

 

 Sometimes ago, a woman visited me in the company of her daughter from Ibadan who was not married for years; as we began  to pray, the Lord told me the genesis of the lady's problem. The same ‘mama’ that brought her daughter warned me not to get involved with her daughter’s predicament even with all my pleas. Then I told her ‘Mama, if you do not release your daughter from that wicked spell, then God will deal with you.’ I could have died that night if I was asleep but the Lord wake me up and I began to pray; the same woman that left my house in the afternoon and went back to Ibadan appeared in my room while I was praying in the mid-night, sat down in front of me ready to attack me but the Lord fought for me and she did not survived the attack.

 This year, in the battle of life, you will be the winner but I need you to pray these prayers with holy aggression:

*Every intimidating power from my father’s and mother’s house, I crouch you by the blood of Jesus!

*Every satanic barricade standing between me and my next level, I push you down!

*My years of suffering and delay, expire now by the blood of Jesus!

*I receive the power to bounce back and succeed in my all I lay my hands on this year!

*Everything I lay my hands to do from now on, no man or woman will stop it!

*My divine helpers, my destiny helpers, show up from every direction!

                                                                               In Jesus name.

MEDITATE

*If you are not expecting much, you will not experience much.

* Divine instructions are not negotiation but for navigation.

* Loneliness is not the absence of people, it is the absence of direction.

* The strength of your enemy is your ignorance.

* Life is not fair, it does not give you  what you deserve but what 

   you fight for.

* There is no situation and battle you are facing and going  through

   right now that you cannot overcome if you will  switch from the

   natural to the supernatural.     

PROPHETIC DECLARATION 

* This week, people will consult you for solution!

* You will not be a burden to your generation!

* Your life will command respect and result!

* Receive the power for speedy results!

*  Your life will not suffer set back!

* It is an exceptional and outstanding  week for you!

                                     In Jesus name.

ROAR TO SOAR, PART 1

If you know how to roar then you will soar higher in life, if you can’t roar you are not going anywhere. You become what you say with time; this is the rationale behind many people travails because whatever you declare with your mouth will happen with time.

“Now tell them this: 'As surely as I live, declares the Lord, I will do to you the very things I heard you say.” Num 14:28 (NLT)

Hence, what you are saying is responsible for where you are now. I pray for you, every negative confession that you have spoken and its manifestations are eating up your destiny, I cancelled its effects now in Jesus name. If you will soar high, you must know how to roar and speak the right word. 

“For Zion's sake I will not keep silent, for Jerusalem's sake I will not remain quiet, till her righteousness shines out like the dawn, her salvation like a blazing torch. The nations will see your righteousness, and all kings your glory; you will be called by a new name that the mouth of the Lord will bestow. You will be a crown of splendor in the Lord's hand, a royal diadem in the hand of your God. No longer will they call you Deserted, or name your land Desolate. But you will be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah for the lord will take delight in you, and your land shall be married.” Isa 62:1-4 (NIV)

There is this popularized notion that everyone who is rich out there is into one dubious activities or the other in order to enrich themselves but can that be totally true? Without mincing words, some of these people have paid their dues and that is why they are high-fliers today. You too can join these leagues of great achievers if you can live by this secret and that can also take of wrong assumption about been successful. 

When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!" Mk 10:47-48(NIV)

If you will soar higher this year, then you must learn how to roar; permit me to say this,’ you are going no-where until you roar in prayer’. Until you travail, you cannot prevail and that is the basic truth. I want you to remember that anybody or anything that can stop you from praying wants to kill you; until you gather the right momentum in prayers, you will continue to stumble at the door of your breakthrough. As you begin to bombard the heavens with your prayers, the Lord will pay attention to you in Jesus name. In the scripture above, Bartimaeus travailed with his shouts and he prevailed. The same people that rebuked him to shut up later rallied round him when he got his breakthrough. If you want life to be at your beck and call, then you must not cease praying.

If you cannot roar, automatically, you will not soar in life; the earlier you start to roar the better for your destiny. Once you are late in roaring, you will be late in soaring. The only proven solution is to start praying now. Where you have been rejected and knocked-down, as you begin to pray, I see an express way open for you in Jesus name.

“From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been forcefully advancing, and forceful men lay hold of it.” Matt 11:12 (NIV)  

The way out of that problem is not to keep quiet, so begin to roar so that you will soar. By the auction of the Holy Spirit, every spirit of 'prayer-lessness' in you, I command them to lose their hold in your life in Jesus name. This is the gospel truth, you might not achieve much this year until you learn how to roar in prayers. If the son of a goat is a goat and the son of a lion is a lion, who do you resemble with your laziness when your heavenly Father takes pleasure in your prayers? Some people make so much noise outside but in their closet, they are like jelly fish. Life will not give you what you want; life will only give you what you fight for. Do you want to marry a good husband; he is not coming for your beauty because reigning in life is not by complexion, but through aggressive prayers. Whatever you want in life will not come easily except you know how to go on your kneels in prayer; you are where you are now because you refuse to pay the price of prayer yesterday.

This series continues next week, watch-out!

MEDITATE

*Your job is not your source but God.

*You are the light of the world, not of the church.

*Your kingdom connection is a force that provokes

  divine intervention.

*God seekers never lack the benefits of goodness and mercy.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

*You will know what to do to be relevant!

*You will not be stranded in destiny!

*Whatever the enemy has done to alter the smell of your life 

  is reversed now!

*God will connect you to your ‘solution carrier’!

*I prophesy that you will not die empty but by His mercy,

   you will excel!

*From your present level; God will raise you up, lift you up and

   set you up!
