She wrote Allah in the sand, the waves wiped it out instantly!
Then she wrote Jesus and the waves respected it, never touching it. Not coincidence. That's the name above every name.
JESUS REIGNS FOREVER! 🙏🏻🕊
The first time the word worship appears in Scripture, there is no music, no choir, no instrument.
It is Abraham.
“And Abraham said… Stay here with the donkey; the lad and I will go yonder and worship”
and the worship was a journey to Moriah, carrying Isaac.
This establishes the biblical frame for worship.
Worship, before it ever became sound, was posture.
Abraham worshipped by:
Obedience – he went where God pointed
Alignment – he agreed with God’s word even when it cost him
Surrender – he laid down what was most precious
Faith – he believed God beyond understanding
No song.
No atmosphere.
No encouragement.
Just posture.
Worship was not what Abraham sang; it was how he stood before God.
From that moment onward, Scripture teaches us that worship is first a stance, then a sound.
People stood in reverence.
They knelt in surrender.
They lifted hands in dependence.
They fell on their faces in awe.
Each posture preached before any melody followed.
This tells us something crucial:
God responds to alignment before expression.
You can sing loudly and still miss worship.
You can be silent and yet fully worshipping.
True worship is when the heart bows, the will yields, and the body agrees.
Before the song rises, let posture speak.
That is worship.
The most terrifying detail about Noah's Ark isn't the size of the flood. It is the design of the boat.
If you look closely at the blueprints God gave Noah in Genesis 6, He was extremely specific.
He gave the exact length, width, and height. He specified the type of wood and the pitch to seal it.
In my little years, I have never thought of this, but God intentionally left out one crucial component. There was no steering wheel, no sail, and worse still, there was no engine.
Think about how scary that is.
Noah was building a massive vessel to survive a global storm, but he had zero control over it, or over where it went. He couldn't steer it away from rocks. He couldn't turn it into the waves. He couldn't aim for dry land. He was completely at the mercy of the water.
The Ark was not designed for navigation; just for floating.
Noah’s job was to be the Passenger, not the Captain.
God was the Captain.
This is a picture of your life right now.
You are trying to put a steering wheel in a boat that God can control, if you let Him…
After saying Amen to this prayer, one hour later I received a call that said “you got the job” that I was never interviewed for when others were invited for it. No time is too late for God. @nathanielblow
IT IS SETTLED
"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord." - (Colossians 3:16)
READ: Psalm 33:8-9
Whenever God speaks, whatever He says is final (Psalm 119:89). Isaiah 55:10-11 makes it clear that when God sends His word on an errand, it will not return to Him until it has finished its assignment. This means that if God sends His word to a fellow and that fellow refuses to accept it, that word will go to someone else because God’s word can not, and will not, return to Him without accomplishing what it has been sent to do.
Now, if this same word dwells in your heart, you can use it to accomplish great and mighty things to the glory of God. You can tell sicknesses to disappear from your life and the lives of others, and they will disappear. You can command poverty to leave, and it will leave.
To settle negative issues with God’s word, however, you must allow His word to settle fully in your heart. When something settles somewhere, it has found a conducive resting place there. When Noah sent out a dove after the flood, the Bible says that the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned to the ark (Genesis 8:9). Until you make room for God’s word in your heart, it cannot settle in you. God’s word will settle difficult situations in your life and the lives of others if you let it dwell richly in your heart. People are often called rich because they have lots of money. Those who have only a few thousands in their bank accounts cannot claim to be rich. Similarly, you cannot claim to be rich in God’s word when you know only a few verses in the Bible. You must immerse yourself in God’s word and allow it to fill every part of your being by reading and studying it daily. Never be satisfied with yesterday’s revelation; seek to know God’s word anew daily. His word will dwell richly in you as you meditate on it.
When a cook wants a lump of meat to fully absorb some seasonings, he or she will soak the meat in the seasonings for hours to marinate it before cooking. This is what meditation does; it marinates your heart in God’s word and makes you rich in it.
Beloved, let God’s word dwell richly in you and honour it at all times by obeying it completely. This way, whenever you speak it into any situation, God will surely back it up.
KEY POINT:
You will accomplish great things with God's word when you allow His word to dwell richly in you.

YOU CAN NOT CHEAT GOD
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." - (Galatians 6:7)
READ: Proverbs 3:5-7
Years ago, a man who was completely stiff was brought to the RCCG headquarters; he couldn’t move his hands or bend down. We asked him if he would give his life to Jesus, and he did. We prayed a simple prayer, and immediately, he was healed. He was able to kneel, raise his hands, clap, and move his body in ways he couldn’t do before. For about two weeks, he was regular at church services, but after that, he stopped coming. We decided to follow him up, so we visited him at home and asked why he had not been coming to church. He responded by asking us if it was the church that healed him. We told him, “Of course not; it was God, but He used the church.” Then He said, “What then is the problem? If you go to a hospital and you get well, won’t you go home? I came to your church, and I got healed. There is no need for me to keep coming back.” We eventually left him alone, and some months later, as I was driving by, I saw him by the roadside in a worse condition than he was before his initial healing. This time, not only was his entire body stiff, his mouth was wide open, and saliva was dripping uncontrollably from it.
One thing about demons is that they don’t rest. When a demon’s host runs to God and gets delivered from the demon, after some time, it will return to see the state of the fellow. If it sees that the fellow, having received his or her miracle, has decided that he or she doesn’t need God again, it will invite seven more demons that are stronger than it to possess the fellow again. Eventually, the fellow who thought that he or she could use God just to get healed will realise that his or her case has become worse (Matthew 12:43-45).
Some men who are living wayward lives join churches because they want to get married to good Christian ladies. However, they often discover, after getting married, that they have been deceived into marrying someone like themselves who is not genuinely born-again, and also came to the church to look for a Christian husband.
Beloved, in my over 50 years of walking with God, I have discovered that people who think that they can use God and turn their backs on Him always regret it. Never be like such people!
KEY POINT:
Those who try to use God deceitfully always end up regretting their actions.

Hebrews 9-10
Open Heaven Devotional by Pastor E A Adeboyeb
God killed a man for trying to help. His name was Uzza.
And when you understand why, it will change how you approach every area of your life.
David was moving the Ark of the Covenant back to Jerusalem.
The oxen stumbled.
The Ark began to fall.
Uzza reached out to steady it.
Makes perfect sense… right?
The moment Uzza touched the Ark, God struck him dead.
David was angry and confused.
Why would God kill a man who was just trying to help?
Because David missed something crucial.
God had already given specific instructions for moving the Ark:
— Only the Levites could carry it
— On their shoulders
— Using poles
— And never touch it directly
(See Numbers 4:15, 1 Chronicles 15:15)
But David copied the Philistines.
He used a “new cart”
Uzza’s heart was right, but his approach was wrong.
God doesn’t need your help.
He needs your obedience.
I came to Nigeria in the name of the Lord and on behalf of the American people.
Just ending a very productive Congressional visit to Nigeria! We had rounds of meetings with the Nigerian government and people on the ground, including stops in Benue State. More details to come. Happy Sunday. God is Great!
Daniel lived under an era where principalities were ARMED.
Their thrones were valid.
Their interference was legal.
Their resistance was recognised in the heavens.
So yes the answer came day one, but a territorial prince stood there and blocked it for twenty one days.
Not because Daniel was weak.
Not because he needed a longer fast.
But because the BLOOD had not yet spoken.
Because the CROSS had not yet stripped the rulers of darkness.
Everything that delayed Daniel existed in a world before Christ stepped into death and crushed the spine of every principality. This is part of the faultlines of the Old Covenant that the book of Daniel exposes. And this is exactly why the New Covenant is called a better covenant that took care of everything the old could not fix.
But hear this loudly…
When Christ died, He did not negotiate.
He DISARMED.
He STRIPPED.
He HUMILIATED.
He TRIUMPHED.
What fought Daniel did not survive the Cross.
Christ did not just win a victory
He reconfigured the entire spirit realm.
He disarmed principalities and powers, and more importantly situated the believer seated in Christ FAR ABOVE principalities and powers.
Not just above.
Far above.
A realm they cannot climb and cannot contest.
The same realm that blocked Daniel’s answer is now under the feet of the One who raised us up and seated us with Him far above every power and every name.
Daniel prayed from the ground.
We pray from the throne.
Daniel hoped the answer would break through resistance.
We stand where answers originate a realm where interference cannot exist.
This is why for us every delay must be situated in the broader context of believing that you have received and abounding therein with thanksgiving.
Delay for the believer is not a spiritual warfare zone it is a posture issue. We do not wait for heaven to break through. We thank because heaven has already answered.
You are not fighting to get a message past the heavens.
You are seated far above the heavens.
You are not begging through a blockade.
You are functioning from the right hand of Majesty where no prince can stand.
This is why New Covenant believers do not fast to break demonic barriers.
Christ already broke them.
We do not fast to move a prince.
The Prince of Peace already crushed them.
So why do we fast and pray even more passionately today
Because our model is Acts 13.
“As they ministered to the Lord and fasted…”
Their fasting was not a warfare strategy it was ministry to God.
A posture of worship.
A yielding.
A burning of incense.
And our picture is Revelation 5
the golden bowls full of incense,
the prayers of the saints rising before the Throne without interference, without delay, without obstruction.
We fast because we are priests.
We pray because incense must rise.
We minister because we stand before the Lamb who already triumphed.
Not striving for breakthrough
standing inside breakthrough.
Not fighting for victory
operating from victory.
Now let this shake the room
Daniel’s delay is not your template.
Daniel’s warfare is not your blueprint.
Daniel’s twenty one days were the story of a world where darkness still had weapons.
We live in the world Christ reconfigured where those weapons no longer exist.
Your story is written in blood
the blood that silenced the accuser,
shattered the princes,
and enthroned the believer far above their reach.
There is no prince of Persia in your heavens.
There is no twenty one day blockade over your answers.
There is no demonic checkpoint between you and the Father.
Daniel lived before the triumph.
You live inside the triumph.
So when you fast, you minister.
When you pray, you incense the throne.
When you speak, you speak from the seat of victory
the place where Christ reigns and where no darkness can stand.
This is the New Creation reality.
This is the Gospel.
This is the loud truth that silences every delay forever.
Jesus died at 33. The human spine has 33 vertebrae. The same structure that holds us up is the same number of years He held this Earth.
We have 12 ribs on each side. 12 disciples. 12 tribes of Israel. God built His design into our bones. He wrote Heaven into our anatomy.
The vagus nerve runs from your brain to your heart and gut. It calms storms inside the body. It looks just like a cross. That’s the power source running through us. Every time your body heals, every time your heart slows in prayer, every time peace shows up when it shouldn’t…that’s Him.
Jesus rose on the third day. Science tells us that when you fast for 3 days, your body starts regenerating. Old cells die. New ones are born. Healing begins. Your body literally resurrects itself. That’s not coincidence. That’s design.
And it keeps going.
Your heart has an electrical rhythm. Your brain lights up when you pray. Tears contain different chemicals depending on if you're crying from joy or grief. The blood speaks. The bones store memory. The body worships whether you realize it or not.
We are fearfully and wonderfully made. We are walking prophecy. Walking tabernacles. Dust and divinity in one.
God didn’t just create you. He carved Himself into you.
You don’t need to look far to find Him. You just need to look inward. He’s been in the design since the beginning.
man dependent on Him for his existence in this world cause we are but strangers here. If the parents of the child or anyone around him believes that God exists and can do all things, they’ll also know that cancer is a stranger in that temple and must leave.
In as much as God, made a perfect world and man messed it up, does not rule out the fact that God allowed man to do so. This is so that He would make Himself known to man that He exist which is the primary purpose for Jesus’ 1st coming, to reconcile all things with God and make
Blow the trumpet in Nigeria and sound an alarm let all the inhabitants tremble for the day of the Lord, is at hand.
This is not rapture yet, it is the Passover of the Lord God, in Nigeria and only those covered in the blood of His Son will be saved. Be born again!
