27/02/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Faith Capital.

 Text: ```1 Kings 17:8-10 AMP Then the word of the Lord came to him, saying, “Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and stay there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you.” So he set out and went to Zarephath, and when he came to the gate of the city, behold, a widow was there gathering sticks [for firewood]. He called out to her and said, “Please bring me a little water in a jar, so that I may drink.”``` 

COMMENTARY
Elijah did not place his life on the brook but hung his life and future on the word of God. So he waited on God to hear the next thing God has to say to him. Faith Capital is enough to start with, be sustained on and complete all your projects on. Your business and possessions should not inform your opinion on what sufficiency is all about. Whenever you feel scarcity what is your usual reactions? Do you not always blame it on yourself or on some other person?

Scarcity is not always a product of our decision. Perhaps Elijah would have start blaming himself for allowing himself to leave town to go and hide in the brook area. Having followed God's will, having followed prophetic word of God. He resolved to also look up to God for answer to the current state of things around him. 

Our generation need tough skinned believers that would glue to what God has said and never giving room for pressure or anything. There was scorching heat of famine in the land but it didn't reduce Elijah's commitment to God. Most times believers in our generation are driven by trends in the society. How close you are to the word of God will determine your reactions to whatever is trending. Prophecy of great future will come but the rough road and battles you will fight on the way to making the prophecy a reality won't be revealed. The joy of the crown ahead should poise your passion to remain resolute until you enter into your promise. Never contemplate giving up or compromising your faith. Elijah was sustained on faith capital. He didn't have any financial capital.

Food for thought:
It is not the financial capital that you need for sustenance but it is faith capital._

Prayer:
 ```Guide me and help my faith to be boosted Lord. My financial Capital is not dependable but you are sufficient and everything to me Lord. Help my heart to think God more than I take thought about my possessions 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...
