25/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Relax and align yourself

 Text:
 ```Romans 8:26‭-‬27 NKJV
Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.```
 
COMMENTARY
Uncommon prayers and intercession is achieved with a relaxed mind rather than a troubled heart and soared mind. Apostle Paul admonished the Philippians Church to be anxious about nothing but through prayer and supplication, they should make their request known to God. Someone who is tendering a request does it with a relaxed mind. Prayer is not argument, prayer is not complain or comparison. While we pray, we should be careful not to mix up our prayers with complain and comparisons.

Prayer is a Physical activity but has much connection to the unseen and invisible God. God being a Spirit wishes us to relate with Him as a Spirit. Even When Jesus said man shall not live by bread alone, He was actually referring to spiritual food, the word of God. Here the spirit of God helps our weaknesses to bring us hither to the height of relationship with God. Somehow man has fallen below God's relationship but through grace we received forgiveness through Jesus and consequently help through the ministry of Holy Spirit.

This same Holy Spirit helps us a lot in place of prayers. It is just like a litigant having a case in court but doesn't know how to compose himself. The litigant will need assistance of a lawyer who would put all his prayers into writing and files them to the judge. What the Holy Spirit does is a work of a Counsel. Both in the time of prayers and in times of taking decisions.

Food for thought:
Prayer is a spiritual activity, alignment is required for its effectiveness._

Prayer:
 ```Holy Spirit guide me to achieve the best out of my prayers in Jesus name.```

 31/12/2023 *Christian WATCH Exposition* *Topic:* _Habit 1. Roaming around_  *Text:*  ```Job 2:1-2 AMP Job Loses His Health Again there was a day when the sons of God (angels) came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan (adversary, accuser) also came among them to present himself before the Lord. The Lord said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Then Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming around on the earth and from walking around on it.”```  *COMMENTARY*  As children we grew up seeing Almanac painting of a dark human like image with tail, hons and horrible dentition being displayed on walls of our houses as Satan. Some of these almanac displayed Jesus and Satan having a soccer. Other Almanac can be a wrestling match between Satan and Jesus and things like that. Satan cannot be known by all those images. Satan is a spirit and manifest through human beings. Therefore in this study we shall look into the habits and manifestations of Satan. One of the ...

Topic: Habit 5. Distractions.   Text :  ```Job 2:1-2 AMP Job Loses His Health Again there was a day when the sons of God (angels) came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan (adversary, accuser) also came among them to present himself before the Lord. The Lord said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Then Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming around on the earth and from walking around on it.”```   COMMENTARY   Uninvited yet attending, for what? Why is Satan always going to the gathering of the children of God? Presenting himself to the Lord is not his priority, he is chiefly looking for whom to distract. As children of God testifies of triumphing over evil with good, the children of the disobedience take pleasure in doing evil and testifies when they succeed in multiplying evil, especially when their intended distractions work out and a child of God compromise to follow evil. Have you wondered why believers compromise? It starts from this ki...

02/02/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Illegal Structures.   Text :  ```Jeremiah 1:7‭-‬10 NKJV But the Lord said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord. Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me: “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant.”```   COMMENTARY One of the foundational significant difference between Prophetic ministers and the rest of the people in the society is eyes. God gives ability to identify original architectural master plans to the Prophets. God give them ability to read and interpret geographical and geological map of families and individual persons lives. God's purpose and plans a...
