Multiplication For Impact by Pastor David Ibiyeomie

Topic: Multiplication For Impact

Matthew 5:13-14 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

You are the salt of the earth and the light of the world, meaning you are to be a person of impact is to be a trailblazer, a pacesetter, a pathfinder, a light bearer for others to see, a problem solver. To be a person of impact is to be a blessing to others with God-given resources, gift, talent and grace. Until you are a positive contributor to the course of humanity, you are merely existing and not living. Life has no meaning without contribution. Your usefulness to God and humanity is determined by the way you impact your world. Jesus’ impact to the world is unparalleled.

Acts 13:36 For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption.

David impacted his generation and is still being celebrated in Israel as their greatest king that ever lived. Living without impact is living without meaning because everyone was created and empowered for impact.

Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

God created man and blessed man. The primary purpose of being blessed is to bless others. That is to impact others with the blessing of God in us.

God is called ‘omnipotent’. ‘Omni’ means multi-dimensional and ‘potent’ is where potential is derived. When God created you, He deposited all His potentials in you, you were made in His image; exactly as God is. What is in you is not less than what is in another person. There is nobody that is not gifted. God gave everyone potentials and the impact you make depends on how you utilize your potentials.

God created you to be a blessing which means that the primary purpose of being blessed is for you to impact the world with the blessing He has given to you. This is the purpose of multiplication. If you are not impacting your world, you will be frustrating the purpose of your existence. Every time you keep what God gave to you without multiplying it, God gets angry. There is something in you waiting for expression. To impact the world with your potential, you need to engage the force of multiplication.

Multiplication is an act of reproduction. It means to increase in number. God wants us to keep reproducing the effects of our talent so as to fill the entire world with it to His own glory. God blessed man for impact and for you to successfully impact your world, you must go beyond being fruitful into multiplying the results of your fruits. God did not just say, be fruitful, He then went on to say be fruitful and multiply.

Genesis 1:28a And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply.

God wants you to keep reproducing with the talents He has placed in you to fill the earth with His own glory. You must therefore go beyond your current level of success to the level God wants you to be. It is not enough to be fruitful, you must multiply. Many are fruitful but have problems knowing how to multiply the fruits.

Multiplication is the bridge between fruitfulness and impact. When you throw a stone into a river it produces a current of waves, similarly when you apply force into your life, you create waves of multiplication.

Zechariah 9:10 And his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from river even to the ends of the earth.

God wants your dominion to be spread from one nation to the other. Therefore, refuse to be a local champion. Without multiplication, impact will be limited. Every living thing, including human beings, we’re created with the ability to multiply. Until you keep multiplying your God-given ability, you cannot fill the world with it.

Isaiah 11:9b For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.

Just as God desires that the earth should be filled with knowledge, so does He desire that you should fill the world with the blessing you received at creation.

Without multiplication, impact will be limited.

God bless you

Rhapsody of Realities 7 March 2019 – Pray For Your Enemies… Not Against Them

Rhapsody of Realities 7 March 2019 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome – Pray For Your Enemies… Not Against Them

Topic: Pray For Your Enemies… Not Against Them

This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh (Galatians 5:16).

Sometimes, some Christians, while praying, would say, “Whatever evil my enemies have planned against me, Lord, give them double! Anyone who wants me dead, let that one rather die a sudden death!” No, this isn’t the right way to pray as a Christian; not when you’re full of the Spirit!

Those who pray like that are praying according to the desire of the flesh, not according to the Spirit. Our opening verse says, “…Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust (desire) of the flesh.” It’s the desire of the flesh to see the death of your enemies, but the desire of the Spirit is to see their salvation.

When you pray against your enemies, that’s walking in the flesh; that’s praying in the flesh. What God wants is for us to pray in the Spirit: “Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit …” (Ephesians 6:18). Stay in the Spirit; don’t be perturbed by whatever your enemy may be scheming against you.

Jesus said, “Pray for,” not against, your enemies: “But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you” (Matthew 5:44). You may feel hurt, and upset or angry, but refuse to hate. You’re too full of love to hate or curse anyone. You’re too sweet in your spirit to be bitter or take record of the wrongs done to you.

Don’t give attention to your adversaries, for they don’t count. It makes no difference how many people gang up against you, they’re not a factor. You’ve been raised together with Christ! Greater is He that’s in you than he that’s in the world. Read the words of David in Psalm 27:2: “When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.”

There was no need for him to pray against his enemies; they simply took their place: they stumbled and fell. That’s the fate of anyone who professes to be your enemy. If they don’t repent, they’re doomed. But your role is to pray for them, hoping God would grant them repentance unto the acknowledging of the truth.

PRAYER
 Dear Father, thank you for your love that’s shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Spirit, and for the fullness of Christ in my heart. Your love is daily expressed through me in my thoughts, words, and actions. I’m riding through life gloriously, making progress with giant strides, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

MFM Mountain Top Life Daily Devotional 7 March 2019 By Dr. D.K Olukoya – How to Survive in a Financial Desert

TOPIC: How to Survive in a Financial Desert (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Daily Devotional 7 March 2019)

Bible In One Year: Deuteronomy 1-3; Mark 10:32-52

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Isaiah 43:19-24

MEMORY VERSE: “Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.” – Isaiah 35:6

The MESSAGE:

A desert is a dry and wasteland. It is a solitary place which is uninhabited. Some desert areas support green plant life in the wet season, but dry up during the heat of the long hot season. Many deserts located in the Holy land are mentioned in the Bible, like Edom (2 Kings 3:8), Beth-aven (Joshua 18:12), Kadesh (Psalms 29:8), Sinai (Exodus 16:1).

Despite the dry atmosphere of the desert, it is inhabited by dangerous animals such as Jackals, poisonous snakes, fire ants, porcupines and scorpions. These add to the danger of the desert, so that people call the place a land of death. But God has promised to transform desert lands into fertile and productive fields. He said He would put rivers in the deserts and make them look like the Garden of Eden (Isaiah 43:19-20). I pray that God will transform every desert area of your life into a fertile land, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

What is Financial desert?

  1. It is a place of bankruptcy.
  2. It is a bad debt you cannot repay.
  3. It is lenders’ harassment.
  4. It is the power behind financial failure.
  5. It is a bad investment.
  6. It is the custodian of sudden death.
  7. It is the power behind high blood pressure and hypertension.
  8. It is the brother of anxiety.
  9. It is a killer.
  10. It harbours dangerous repercussions just as wicked animals inhabit deserts.

How do you survive in a Financial desert?

God has promised to turn deserts into fertile lands and also make way through them. You do not undertake a journey through the desert without a guide. One who knows the way and hidden water holes. Despite the fact that God ordained the children of Israel to go through the deserts to the Promised Land and also promised to be with them, Moses had to employ a guide to show them the way (Numbers 10:29-32). This portrays the desert as a very dangerous place.

But God knows the way through the desert. He created the deserts and knows how to survive there. There are violent sand storms in the deserts that can bury a person. I pray that financial desert storms will not bury you, in Jesus’ name. (Deuteronomy 8:15-16; Isaiah 48:21). God can take you through any kind of desert, be it financial or whatever. For forty years, He took the Israelites through deserts and provided them food, clothes, water and shelter. He does not change and can do likewise for you.

To survive in a Financial desert, you must do the following:

  1. Be a close friend of God like Abraham.
  2. Trust God and obey all His word.
  3. Wait for Him to lead you.
  4. Hear from Him before you take financial decisions.
  5. Depend on Him alone to carry you through the desert.
  6. Fear and honour Him.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
THE GOD WHO LED HIS CHILDREN THROUGH THE WILDERNESS (DESERT) FOR FORTY YEARS IS JUST THE SAME TODAY.

PROPHETIC WORD:
Financial desert will not consume you and your finances.

PRAYER POINTS:

MORNING

  1. God will carry me through my financial desert, in the name of Jesus.
  2. My financial desert will not have any adverse effect on my life, in the name of Jesus.
  3. Financial desert storms, cease, in the name of Jesus.
    EVENING
  4. Divine oasis, appear in my financial desert, in the name of Jesus.
  5. O Lord, give me the patience to follow You through the deserts of my life, in the name of Jesus.
  6. Powers behind financial deserts, die, in the name of Jesus.
  7. I release my family and me from the bondage of financial desert, in the name of Jesus.

DCLM Daily Manna 7 March 2019 – Conquering The Mighty

Topic: Conquering The Mighty [DCLM Daily Manna 7 March 2019 Daily Devotional by Pastor William Folorunso Kumuyi]

Text: Judges 8:4-21 (KJV)

Key Verse: “And when Zebah and Zalmunna fled, he pursued after them, and took the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and discomfited all the host” (Judges 8:12).

MESSAGE:

The children of Israel, in their usual manner, had sinned against God and He sold them into the hands of the Midianites who mightily oppressed them for seven years. But when they repented and cried unto the Lord, He raised up Gideon as a leader and judge to destroy the Midianites. And to make it clear that the battle was God’s, He gave him only 300 men to go to that battle. In our text, we see Gideon and his men in hot pursuit of the fleeing Midianites; “faint, yet pursuing them”.

Even the refusal of the men of Succoth and Penuel to give assistance of food to his hungry soldiers could not deter him from pursuing the two kings of Midian until they were captured and executed in addition to over one hundred and twenty thousand Midianites earlier destroyed.

The Christian life is full of battles. Satan had drawn his sword against the children of Adam especially those who have pledged their loyalty to the second Adam. His relentless onslaught against the Church of Christ is a reality that no true Christian should take for granted. As soon as someone renounce his sins and turns his life to Christ, he becomes a primary target of the enemy. But the truth is that the Christian needs not panic because Christ, “the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed…” Like Gideon, the believer must continue in the good fight of faith “till every foe is vanquished”. To retreat or surrender can never be an option, as he keeps pressing “toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus”.

There is the need to stand on God’s unfailing promises in the face of all odds. Having received the authority to tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy, the Christian must live his life in daily victory over sin, Satan and the world.

Thought For The Day: Calvary guarantees the believer’s victory.

Our Daily Bread 7 March 2019 Devotional – Escaping the Noise

Topic: Escaping the Noise [Our Daily Bread 7 March 2019 Devotional]

Bible in a Year: Deuteronomy 3–4; Mark 10:32–52

After the fire came a gentle whisper. – 1 Kings 19:12

Today’s Scripture & Insight: 1 Kings 19:9-13

Several years ago, the president of a college suggested that students join her in “powering down” for an evening. Although the students agreed, it was with great reluctance that they laid aside their cell phones and entered the chapel. For the next hour, they sat quietly in a service of music and prayer. Afterward, one participant described the experience as “a wonderful opportunity to calm down . . . a place to just tune out all of the extra noise.”

Sometimes, it’s difficult to escape “extra noise.” The clamor of both our external and internal worlds can be deafening. But when we’re willing to “power down,” we begin to understand the psalmist’s reminder of the necessity to be still so we can know God (Psalm 46:10). In 1 Kings 19, we discover as well that when the prophet Elijah looked for the Lord, he didn’t find Him in the pandemonium of the wind or the earthquake or the fire (vv. 9–13). Instead, Elijah heard God’s gentle whisper (v. 12).

Extra noise is practically guaranteed during celebrations. When families and friends come together, it’s likely a time of animated conversations, excess food, boisterous laughter, and sweet expressions of love. But when we quietly open our hearts, we find that time with God is even sweeter. Like Elijah, we’re more likely to encounter God in the stillness. And sometimes, if we listen, we too will hear that gentle whisper.

Today’s Reflection
What will help you draw close to God in silence and solitude? How can you regularly “power down” both your devices and your busy mind?

Seeds of Destiny 7 March 2019 Devotional – The Dedication of David

Topic: The Dedication of David [Seeds of Destiny 7 March 2019 Devotional]

Dedicated people have a rigid schedule of prayer with God which cannot be broken.

SCRIPTURE: As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God? Psalm 42:1-2.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Dedicated people have a rigid schedule of prayer with God which cannot be broken.

David was a man unusually dedicated to God. The Scriptures make it clear that David was brutally dedicated to God (Psalms 63:1-2). He operated in the realm of die-less passion for God to the point that the yearning of his soul for God was compared with how the hart pants after the water brook (Psalm 42:1-2). His thirst for God made him to seek God early even in a dry and thirsty land (Psalm 63:1-3).

The outcome of that passion for God was that he was a man of prayer and the Word of God.

David prayed effortlessly. David had a schedule of prayer; he prayed three times a day (Psalms 55:17). The proof of being dedicated to God is having a schedule of prayer times with God which you are committed to. Dedicated people value their time of prayer with God. They are practically useless if they have not communicated with God. For a person to proceed through life in comfortability without times of prayer and communion with God places a question mark on their dedication to God.

Apart from prayer, David was a man of God’s Word; he studied and meditated on God’s Word consistently (Psalm 119:97, Psalm 119:113, and Psalm 119:163).

Beloved, your love for God’s Word is a proof of your dedication to Him. Dedicated people are lovers of God’s Word. They meditate on God’s Word; they do not allow vain thoughts to take the place of the Word of God in their hearts. To be dedicated to God, you must make a habitual practice of studying the Word and praying consistently. My counsel is, follow the dedication path of David.

ASSIGNMENTS:

  1. Take a closer study of the life and dedication of David.
  2. Ask God to baptize you with an unconquerable passion for His Presence.

PRAYER: O Lord, I ask for an unconquerable passion for You and Your purpose for my life. Help me to seek You at all times, Lord in Jesus’ Name.

Topic: Expect to Hear His Voice [Kenneth Copeland Devotional 7 March 2019]

The sheep that are My own hear and are listening to My voice; and I know them, and they follow Me. – John 10:27, The Amplified Bible

So many believers are unsure of their ability to hear God or know His voice. They’re always afraid that they won’t be able to tell when the Spirit of God is talking to them.

What they don’t realize is this: Hearing the voice of the Spirit is a privilege that the Bible says belongs to every believer (Romans 8:14). All we have to do to exercise that privilege is to receive it by faith and put ourselves in a position to hear.

Next time the devil tries to tell you that you can’t hear God’s voice, remember that.

Jesus said His sheep will know His voice and a stranger’s voice they will not follow. That is a promise of God to you today. You see, the Spirit of God will never guide you in opposition to the written Word of God (John 16:13). So, if you’re not familiar with what the Word says, you’ll find it more difficult to discern His leading.

Get familiar with God’s voice by meditating and studying the Word of God. Follow God’s instruction to Joshua and meditate on it day and night. Act on what you find in the Word, not just when it’s easy but every time. Be obedient even in the slightest things.

That continual obedience to the written Word will bring you into maturity and tune your inward ear to the voice of the Spirit. You’ll soon be able to recognize it as easily as you recognize the voice of your dearest friend.

So, instead of wondering about it, start expecting to hear from Him.

Then start sharpening your spiritual ears by spending time in the Word.

Topic: The Divine Standard [Billy Graham Devotional 7 March 2019]

For salvation that comes from trusting Christ . . . is already within easy reach of each of us . . . — Romans 10:8 (TLB)

Christ said there is a happiness in that acknowledgment of spiritual poverty which lets God come into our souls. Now, the Bible teaches that our souls have a disease. It causes all the troubles and difficulties in the world. It causes all the troubles, confusions, and disillusionments in your own life. The name of the disease is an ugly word. We don’t like to use it. It is “sin.” All of us have pride. We do not like to confess that we are wrong or that we have failed. But God says, “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” We have failed to live up to the divine standard. We must confess our sin as the first step to happiness, peace, and contentment.

Prayer for the day: Pride kept me so long from acknowledging my need of You, Lord. Each day, help me to realize I am nothing without You.

Topic: Good Neighbourliness I [Open Heavens for Teens 7 March 2019]

Memorise: “For better is a neighbor that is near than a brother far off.” – Proverbs 27:10b

Read: Proverbs 18:24

24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

Bible In One Year: Deuteronomy 3-4, Mark 11:20-33

MESSAGE:

When you need urgent help, the closest people to you are usually your neigbours, if you have been nice to them, then it will be easy for them to come to your aid, but if you have been cruel to them, then God help you.

The widow of Zarephath was able to get many empty vessels because her neigbours did not hesitate to lend her their vessels. This shows that she had been nice to them earlier. Imagine if she had been cruel to them before, they would have refused to lend her their vessels and she would have lost her miracle. It is also worthy of note that the neigbours had empty vessels to lend to her because they were poor themselves, otherwise, the vessels wouldn’t have been empty. Some teenagers are only nice to the rich children around. This is wrong and dangerous, you may find yourself in a position where you need help one day and the only person that can help you is one of those that you have been looking down on. Be kind to everyone, especially your neigbours, your miracle may just be dependent on that.

Key Point:

What you sow is what you will reap.

Have you urged upon those who are straying
The Savior who does on the cross

3.Is your life a channel of blessing?
Is it a daily telling for Him?
Have you spoken the word of salvation?
To those who are dying in sin?

4.We cannot be channels of blessing
If our lives are not free from sin;
We will barriers be and a hindrance
To those we are trying to win.
