Today is the Best Day of Your Life


Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord. Always give thanks to God the father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 5:20-21)

It takes an instant for the situations of our daily life to change. I prefer to enjoy God today, by praising Him, and thanking Him for his grace, his mercy and unconditional and unmistakable love for me while I still can.

Are you one of these people who are waiting until things are going well in "all areas" of your life before you enjoy your life? News flash: tomorrow may never come for you. Take this moment to thank God for all He's done so far and praise Him in advance for the coming blessings.

Are you one of these people who feel that you have nothing to be thankful for? Think of salvation. God sent His son Jesus Christ to die for you, a humiliating death, on Calvary in order for you to inherit eternal life. You don't need anything else. Life is the best gift you will ever receive, if you haven't done so yet, pray this prayer now: Heavenly Father, I refuse to wait until I get good news before I thank you, help me be aware of all my blessings today, before tragedy strikes. You are a wonderful father, the best caretaker I could ask for. I submit my destiny, my will, my entire being to your capable hand today; Do unto me, as you will. I thank you for all my past, present, and future blessings; and I thank you most of all, for sending Christ Jesus to die for the forgiveness of my sins and it is by His Holy name I pray. Amen.

Friend, make it part of your daily routine to praise and thank the Lord for your many blessings, whether you recognize it or not, you are constantly being blessed, protected and loved by God.

Be happy today, and always! You are loved.

Praise the Lord!


Exercise Your Authority


"But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed". Isaiah 53:5

I often hear Christian say that it is the will of God for them to be sick. God is probably teaching them a lesson when they get ill. You need to know this and act on it today. It is not the will of God for His children to be sick and poor but the devil's. He has convinced people into believing that God is putting them to a test. Jesus bore our sicknesses so we wouldn't have to be sick. There's authority in the word of God and we must act on it. Christians don't know that they must apply the word of God in their lives. The Bible is not for the early Christians only; it is as valid today as it was 2000 years ago. You have to apply the Word of God to your life.


When you get sick or facing a financial challenge you have to cast it out by speaking the word of God. You have to fight with the Word and that is why it is so important that you know the Word, People perish for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6). Jesus didn't suffered sickness on earth until He received every disease that could affect mankind on the cross. "He took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses" (Matthew 8:17). We don't have to beg for Healing. We are children of the most High God, and He already provided the medicine to our diseases and it up to us to exercise the power and claim the victory and rebuke the devil for we have the authority in Jesus name. As Jesus hung on the cross, He said, "It is finished" (John 19:30), it meant that God's plan for redemption was done. Jesus was the sacrifice. The work is done. You can have your miracles financial and physical and emotional; it is the will of God for you. The word of God is the will of God.

"Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick."(Luke 9:1-2)

"And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease." (Matt. 10:1)

Praise the Lord!
