Let's explore the profound presence of the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of the Living God. Often misunderstood, the Holy Spirit is not a physical entity, like wind, fire, or food. He is our Comforter, offering peace, reassurance, and guidance in times of distress. The Holy Spirit whispers words of encouragement, reminding us of God's unfailing love, and dwells within us to provide a comfort that surpasses any earthly solace (John 14:26, Romans 8:26-27).

The Holy Spirit is also our divine Teacher, imparting wisdom and understanding beyond human comprehension. Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would teach us all things and remind us of His teachings (John 14:26, 1 Corinthians 2:10-12). Through the Holy Spirit, we gain insight into God's Word, enabling us to grasp its deeper meanings and apply them to our lives (1 Corinthians 2:10-12). This illumination helps us navigate our daily walk with God, equipping us with the knowledge to live according to His will (Psalm 119:105).

From the dawn of creation, the Holy Spirit has been an active, creative force, participating in the formation of the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:2, Job 33:4). Today, He continues to breathe new life into our hearts and minds, transforming us into new creations in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17, Titus 3:5). This creative power empowers us to boldly live out our faith, to witness effectively for Christ, and to serve others with love and humility (Acts 1:8, 1 Corinthians 12:4-7). The same power that filled the early disciples, enabling them to perform miracles and preach the gospel, is available to us today (Acts 2:1-4, 1 Corinthians 12:4-7).

In our daily lives, the Holy Spirit provides guidance and direction, leading us along the path of righteousness (Psalm 119:105, Romans 8:14). As we cultivate a relationship with Him, we become more attuned to His promptings (John 16:13, Romans 8:14). By surrendering to the Holy Spirit, we allow God to lead us, trusting that He will direct our steps according to His perfect plan (Proverbs 3:5-6, Romans 8:28). Let us open our hearts to the Holy Spirit, inviting Him to work within us, transforming us with His power and presence, and walking confidently in His guidance (Ephesians 3:16-19, Galatians 5:16).

You are not an accident, nor are you a waste of God's creative power. Your life is securely in God's hands, and no one controls it. The story of Joseph in the Bible beautifully illustrates this truth.

Despite being betrayed, sold into slavery, falsely accused, and imprisoned, God's plan prevailed in Joseph's life. He rose to great power in Egypt, saving many lives during a famine, demonstrating that God can turn harm into good. Just like Joseph's case, though enemies may seem to prevail, they are unwittingly instruments directing you to your true destiny and glory.

When we pray without seeing immediate results, it doesn't mean God has abandoned us. His timing is perfect, and His plan is unfolding. As Romans 8:28 assures us, God works everything for our good. We must trust His behind-the-scenes work, even when we can't see it.

God's ultimate plan determines the outcome of our lives, not the schemes of others or our challenges. Deuteronomy 31:6 promises that God will never leave or forsake us. As we walk in faith, remember that our lives are part of God's grand design, prepared in advance.

No human can alter God's divine plan for you. Our challenges, like Joseph's trials, serve a larger purpose. Patience and trust in His timing are essential. Trust God, pray steadfastly, and have faith that His plan will lead to fulfillment and triumph.

Rest assured, you are in God's perfect hands.

"Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning" (Psalm 30:5). The darkness of night represents the challenging seasons of our lives, but the promise of morning symbolizes the triumph of hope and joy over adversity.

Just as the Israelites journeyed from the bitter waters of Marah to the refreshing waters of Elim, God is leading you from sorrow to joy. He transforms our difficult situations into blessings, just as He turned bitter water into sweet (Exodus 15:22-27). Through our wilderness experiences, God watches over us, providing for our needs (Deuteronomy 2:7).

Today marks the end of your wilderness period. It's time to step into God's promises. Isaiah 60:1 urges us to "Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you." This is your appointed time to move from despair to hope, from struggle to favor. Just as Jesus calmed the storms for His disciples, He is calming the storms in your life.

Your brighter day has arrived. With faith and confidence, step into this new season of abundance and joy. Leave the wilderness journey behind and walk into a place of joy and peace. The glory of the Lord is upon you, and your appointed time has come.

May this message inspire you to embrace the joy and promises of God. May your life be filled with hope, peace, and abundance.

In John 3:17, Jesus clearly states that He did not come to condemn the world but to save it. This message is crucial in a world where we often feel pressured to be perfect. Jesus knows we are flawed and imperfect, and that’s exactly why He came—to offer reconciliation and a pathway back to God. His mission is not to highlight our shortcomings but to bridge the gap between our brokenness and God’s perfect love.

Jesus did not come for the righteous or those who believe they have it all together. In Luke 5:32, He says, "I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." This underscores His purpose of seeking out those who are lost, broken, and in need of His grace. The story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15:11-32 illustrates this beautifully. No matter how far we have strayed or how deeply we have fallen, God is always ready to welcome us back with open arms, not with condemnation but with love and forgiveness.

Jesus invites us to come to Him just as we are, without needing to first clean ourselves up or fix our lives. Matthew 11:28 reminds us of His call to the weary and burdened, promising rest and acceptance. He doesn’t demand perfection but asks us to trust in His grace. In Christ, we are transformed from the inside out, becoming new creations as described in 2 Corinthians 5:17. This transformation is not about adhering to a new set of rules but about becoming the best version of ourselves, reflecting His love and grace.

Today, embrace the love of Jesus, who came not to condemn but to reconcile you to God. He understands your imperfections and loves you anyway. Just like the father in the Prodigal Son story, He is waiting to welcome you home. Come to Him with all your flaws, and allow His grace to transform you into the person He created you to be. Trust in His love and live as a new creation, full of His joy and peace.

When God says yes, everything in creation aligns with His command. The authority of God's word is absolute, compelling even the universe to obey instantly. Just as God’s declaration, “Let there be light,” brought light into existence without hesitation (Genesis 1:3), His yes to our prayers and needs commands every barrier, obstacle, and opposition to yield. Isaiah 55:11 affirms that God’s word never returns void but accomplishes His intended purpose, demonstrating the unstoppable power of His affirmative response, as Psalm 33:9 states, “For He spoke, and it came to be; He commanded, and it stood firm.”

Our daily battles and challenges are already won when God says yes. This divine decree sets everything into motion to fulfill His purpose in our lives, displacing every no that once stood in our way. The alignment of our circumstances follows, bringing forth provision, healing, deliverance, and breakthrough. Romans 8:28 reminds us, "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose." The yes from God transforms situations, ensuring that every other voice and resistance must bow down and retreat.

God created the heavens and the earth and everything within them by His words. The same God who commanded the light to shine out of darkness is the one who speaks into our lives today. His yes carries the same creative power, capable of transforming chaos into order, darkness into light, and despair into hope. No situation is too far gone for God. Just as the dry bones in Ezekiel's vision came to life at the prophetic word of God, so can our dead situations, our hopeless circumstances, and our deferred dreams come to life at His yes (Ezekiel 37:4-10).

A single yes from God can change your story profoundly. Whether it's healing, provision, or deliverance, God's affirmative word carries creative power capable of transforming chaos into order and despair into hope. Your situation is never too far gone for God’s intervention. Embrace Christ and His yes today, trust in His divine plan, and witness as He transforms your life, turning mourning into dancing, sorrow into joy, and lack into abundance for His glory. As 2 Corinthians 1:20 declares, “For no matter how many promises God has made, they are ‘Yes’ in Christ.

Your current failure and disappointment are not the end of you. The Bible tells us in Proverbs 24:16 that "the righteous may fall seven times but still get up." Even though you have fallen seven times, you still have seven rises left in you.

Consider Job, who fell into severe trials, yet he rose, and his latter days were blessed more than his beginning (Job 42:12). Joseph fell to the extent of becoming a prisoner and a slave, but he rose to become the second most powerful man in Egypt (Genesis 41:41-43). Lazarus died and was in the tomb for four days, yet Jesus raised him from the dead (John 11:43-44).

If there is still redemption for dead Lazarus, you who are still alive have no reason not to rise. Ecclesiastes 9:4 reminds us, "Anyone who is among the living has hope—even a live dog is better off than a dead lion!"

I know you have been on the ground for too long, right where you fell, with no one to help you up. The good news for you today is that Christ is extending His hand to help you up, as He promises in Isaiah 41:10: "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."

Give Him your hand today by accepting Jesus Christ into your life. He has been standing beside you with His hand outstretched. Just give Him your hand, and He will lift you up.

Apostle Lat.

In life, we often yearn for a hero, a Superman, to swoop in and save us from our troubles. However, the reality is that no human can fulfill this role. People are fallible, burdened with their own issues, and ultimately, mortal. Scripture warns us not to place our trust in human beings, who are incapable of providing lasting salvation (Psalm 146:3-4). In our darkest moments, when we feel utterly alone, it is crucial to recognize that our true help comes from God, the eternal and all-powerful Creator (Psalm 121:1-2).

When we acknowledge that only God can save us, we start to see our role in His plan. God equips us with the strength and wisdom needed to face our challenges, urging us to take action in faith (Philippians 2:12-13). If someone steps in to help, it is by God’s direction, as He moves hearts to fulfill His purposes (Proverbs 21:1). Therefore, any assistance we receive is a reflection of God’s grace working through others, reminding us that He is our ultimate provider.

Trusting in God alone ensures that we draw from an inexhaustible source of strength and hope (Isaiah 40:31). Human saviors may falter and fail, but God’s faithfulness is everlasting. As we go forward, let us place our hope in Him, knowing that He has many ways to provide for us beyond our comprehension. With God by our side, we are never truly alone, and through Him, we can overcome any adversity.

Apostle Lat

No matter how lonely or challenging your journey may seem, it will all end in laughter. Life often feels like a series of trials leading nowhere, with you walking alone, facing scorn and ridicule from those who do not understand your path. Just as Elijah felt isolated and despondent, saying, “I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts... and I, even I only, am left” (1 Kings 19:10, KJV), and how Jesus faced mockery and suffering, we too can experience profound loneliness and hardship. But in each of these stories, God transformed their sorrow into joy and their trials into triumph. As Hebrews 12:2 (KJV) reminds us, Jesus “endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God,” bringing joy out of suffering.

Psalm 126 tells of a time when the people of Israel, having endured suffering and captivity, were filled with laughter and songs of joy when the LORD restored their fortunes: “Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing” (Psalm 126:2, KJV). This promise is for you too. Though you may weep now, God promises that joy will come in the morning: “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning” (Psalm 30:5, KJV). Your tears will turn into laughter as you trust in His faithfulness. Your journey, no matter how arduous, is part of a divine story that ends in joy and fulfillment, as God turns your mourning into dancing (Psalm 30:11, KJV).

Hold on to hope and fix your eyes on Jesus, who endured the cross for the joy set before Him. He is with you in every step of your journey, promising that it will culminate in laughter and joy. The challenges and loneliness you face now are temporary, but God’s promise of joy is eternal. Romans 8:18 (KJV) encourages us that “the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” Trust in His love and faithfulness, and look forward to the day when your story, too, will end in laughter.

Focusing on the finish line is crucial, as illustrated by the stories of Samson, Judas Iscariot, Ananias and Sapphira, and Joseph.

Samson's infatuation with Delilah cost him his strength and life (Judges 16:15-21), while Judas Iscariot's pursuit of money led to eternal regret (Matthew 26:14-16; 27:3-5). Ananias and Sapphira's deceit resulted in severe consequences (Acts 5:1-11). In contrast, Joseph's integrity and faithfulness led to a rise in power (Genesis 39:6-12). He remained focused on the finish line, ignoring distractions in the form of fornication.

To avoid pitfalls, we must be vigilant. Lust, greed, and deceit offer short-term gratification but divert us from our divine purpose. Joseph’s life reminds us that faithfulness and integrity provide greater rewards than fleeting pleasures.

Now, what is more important than your divine purpose? It's time to decide if you will finish the race, leave the race, or arrive at the finish line late. This is a call for you to focus on the finish line and let go of distractions.

Reaching our finish line requires steadfast focus on God’s path. Reflecting on these biblical examples provides wisdom to navigate life's challenges. Let us keep our eyes on the eternal prize, avoiding distractions and temptations, ensuring we achieve a glorious destiny with Christ.

Apostle Lat

Even in the midst of challenges and uncertainties, know this: My God is not done with you. Regardless of your past, present struggles, or doubts, rest assured that God has a divine purpose for each of you, and His work in your life continues.

Drawing from the Scriptures, we find inspiring examples of God's ongoing work in the lives of His people. Just as Moses, at 80 years old, was called to lead the Israelites, and despite David's grave mistakes, God still used him mightily. We see that age or failures do not limit God's plans for us.

Consider Peter, who denied Jesus but was restored and became a pillar of the early church. Likewise, no matter how many times we falter, God's grace is always available to restore and use us for His purpose.

Trust in God's timing, embrace His grace, and stay faithful in the journey. Despite life's challenges, remember that with God, victory is assured. Disregard the noise of doubt and listen to God's reassuring voice: "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28)

As you continue to push forward in life, cling to the truth that God is continually at work in your life. Let His promise that He who began a good work in you will see it through to completion empower you to live boldly, love deeply, and serve faithfully. May the peace of God guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

Apostle Lat

Have you ever thought about what it really means to follow Christ as a person, not just a set of rules or beliefs? When we follow Christ, we are committing ourselves to a relationship with a person who loves us more deeply than we can imagine.

Just like in any relationship, following Christ requires love, trust, and obedience. We must love him with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, and love others as ourselves. We must trust that he has our best interests at heart, even when we don't understand his ways. And we must obey his commands, not out of obligation, but out of a desire to please the one we love.

When we follow Christ, we become part of his family, with all the joys and challenges that come with being in a family. We share in each other's joys and sorrows, and we support each other in times of need. We learn from each other's experiences and encourage each other to grow in our faith.

Following Christ also means admitting our mistakes and weaknesses, and relying on his grace and forgiveness. We don't have to pretend to have it all together or be perfect, because we know that Christ loves us just as we are and is working in us to make us more like him.

So, following Christ is not just about a set of rules or beliefs, but about a relationship with a person who loves us unconditionally. It's about loving, trusting, and obeying him, and being part of a community of believers who support and encourage each other on the journey of faith.

Apostle Lat

Have you ever experienced a moment when you felt like you were in the midst of a storm, and victory seemed far away? It's a common experience that often leaves us feeling defeated and discouraged. But the truth is, as believers in Christ, we are already victorious.

In John 16:33, Jesus tells us that in this world, we will face trials and tribulations, but we should take heart because He has already overcome the world. We are not fighting for victory, but from victory. Our victory was secured on the cross of Calvary, and we are called to walk in that victory each day.

The Apostle Paul in Romans 8:37 says that we are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ who loved us. As children of God, we have been given the power to overcome every obstacle, every challenge, and every storm that comes our way.

When we face difficult situations, we can trust that God is with us, and He will never leave us nor forsake us. He will give us the strength and the wisdom we need to navigate through the storm and emerge victorious.

So, let us declare with boldness that we are victorious in Christ Jesus. We are not defeated, but we are conquerors. We have the power of the Holy Spirit within us, and nothing can stand against us.

Let us pray, "Father, I thank you that in Christ, I am victorious. I thank you that I have been given the power to overcome every obstacle and every challenge that comes my way. Help me to walk in that victory each day and to trust in you no matter what. I declare that I am more than a conqueror through Christ who loved me. In Jesus' name, Amen."

I declare that the storm is over, and victory is ours in Christ Jesus. Let us walk in that victory today and every day.

Apostle Lat

When challenges become unbearable, colors of hope are lost, doubt becomes a companion, and friendship with faith is severed.

Though we have lost the sense of expectations, desires are still attainable through a name that carries hope for the hopeless.

Never surrender to hopelessness because there is still hope through Christ Jesus.

“For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans to prosper and not to harm you, plans to give you a future and a hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11)

He defies science and human reasoning for those he loves, parting the red sea and raining down baked bread from heaven for his loved ones. (Exodus 16: 1-12)

God loves you dearly. You are a carrier of divine destiny with unlimited potential, awaiting manifestation, and in a little while, God will bring it to pass.

PRAYER

Lord Jesus, I am sorry I doubted your ability to save, I surrender all to you completely, take me to the land of hope and blessings.

Father, defy science and human reasoning for my sake, give me an unusual miracle in Jesus name

Father, I am in a wilderness feed me with your bread in Jesus name.

DECLARATIONS

Receive the grace to enjoy God's divine blessings in Jesus name

I decree end of the year miracle upon your life in Jesus name


Apostle Lat.

Daily we are faced with the realities of life, every day has a new story, the good, bad or ugly.

And we ignorantly place these positive and negative life outcomes on personal abilities.

When without the backing of the spiritual, personal efforts amount to nothing. ( 1 Corinthians 15:46)

Growth is not built on the foundations of coincidence, but a fallout of spiritual activities.

Wealth, promotion, fertility, healing, and even death are all products of the spirit manifested in the physical.

Any man that has firm control of the spiritual, is a master of the physical.

Satan is much aware of this truth and has blinded the heart of many to the truth because your ignorance is a source of strength to him. (2 Corinthians 4:4 )

Bringing undue advantage to the occult, witches, and marine who have mastered the manipulation of the spiritual to their advantage.

Don't be deceived, you need to access the spiritual for you to experience physical growth.

The true gateway to the spiritual is believing in the finished works of Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary and the vehicle to your desired spiritual destination is fueled by prayers, fasting, and thanksgiving. (2 Corinthians 5:18)

Today, make a conscious effort to improve your spiritual life.

PRAYER

Say, Lord Jesus, I dedicate myself to you and submit my life to you. I believe in your finished works on the cross of Calvary, I want you to lead me to your secret place.

Father, give me the grace to fellowship with you, I want to worship you in spirit and truth.

Lord Jesus, teach me your ways, I don't want to walk in the flesh anymore, I want to start walking in the spirit.

On the cross, Jesus said It is finished, his last words that completely ended the dominion of Satan over mankind and placed mercy above law, and salvation within reach.

The death of Jesus, a well-conceived plan by God, borne out of love for humanity, to restore to mankind the dominion Adam handed over to satan through sin.

With the cross providing the perfect gift of salvation which is a restoration of the lost dominion to those who believe in the finished works of Christ.

Thereby reconciling mankind to God and bringing freedom to those under spiritual captivity.

The beautiful thing about all this is that it is a gift, open to anyone who is focused on the cross, and willing to be a partaker in its mercy and grace.

'For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.'(Ephesians 2: 8 -9).

Let us focus on the cross, and think less of challenges and empty words of men towards us because the ideal vehicle to a man's desired destination in life is faith in the finished works of Christ.

Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass (Psalm 37:5).

DECLARATION

God will give you the grace to work with him in the mighty name of Jesus

The finished works of Christ on the cross of Calvary will speak for you in the mighty name of Jesus

The gift of salvation will speak mercy and grace into your life in the mighty name of Jesus

Stay blessed and enjoy the beautiful day ahead.

Every building is responsive to its design on paper. The engineer interprets the design and brings it to life.

So also, God has a plan for the life of every man, he has perfected the design. This plan is called the destiny of a man.

Just as a construction plan is subject to interpretation before realization. So also, the destiny of a man is subject to interpretation and realization.

You can interpret and bring your destiny to life or someone else can do it for you.

The question is, who is in charge of your life plan? Who is interpreting your destiny?

Joseph saw his destiny through dreams, and it became subject of envy for his siblings, and they tried to change God's plan for his life.

"And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words" Genesis 37:8.

Just as in the days of Joseph, enemies have tempered with many destinies and a lot of people are manifesting what was not in God's original design for their lives.

Barrenness when the plan says fertility, poverty when the plan says prosperity, emptiness when the plan says honor.

As the Bible states, "But while men slept, His enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way" (Mathew 13:25).

However, we are here to uproot everything in our lives that is not in line with the plan of God concerning us.

Prayer

My father, my God soak me with the precious blood of Jesus.

O Lord, use the blood of Jesus to purge away every deposit you have not planted in my life in the name of Jesus.

Power of God visit me tonight and pull me out of bondage in the name of Jesus.

O Lord, my God save me from the powers of my enemies, in the name of Jesus

Consuming fire , consume every agenda of the enemies concerning my life, in the mighty name of Jesus.

My destiny obey the plan of God for my life in the mighty name of Jesus.

Do you ever get discouraged by the routine of life? After all, most of us haven’t slain a giant, camped out in the belly of a whale, led a million people across a desert, or healed the sick when our shadow fell across them.

Don’t be discouraged! Shepherds, fishermen, tax collectors, farmers – our heroes of the faith were just everyday people leading ordinary lives until God put His finger on them to do extraordinary things.

Too often, we search for the huge moment that it will define our faith. What we overlook are the small, seemingly insignificant places where God begins to build the character and characteristics for the plans He has in mind for us.

Jesus reassures us that, if we do something as inconsequential as giving a cup of cold water in His name, there is a reward in that small act (Matthew 10:42). That is an easy starting point!

When we are filled with the Spirit of God, we are full of power to impact our worlds, our spheres of influence. When we do small things well over a long period of time with great love, they add up to a life of big impact for Jesus.

Matt Hagee

You are not an accident. You are here on purpose. No random act of fate has dropped you here haphazardly. Almighty God has chosen to insert you into this moment in history for a specific reason.

We often, and quite unintentionally, discredit the greatness of God inside of us when we say, “I guess I was just lucky.” Luck had nothing to do with it. That was God working all things for our good because we are “called according to His purpose” (Romans 8:28). Sometimes we say, “I was just in the right place at the right time.” And you would be right…because God led you there. Let’s give credit where it is due!

In the Old Testament, we read of the beautiful, Jewish girl, Esther. She found herself in the king’s palace with the weight of the survival of all Jewish people sitting squarely on her young shoulders. Mordecai, her cousin, urged her not to shrink from this enormous task. He was certain that she had come to that place “for such a time as this” (Esther 4:14). With the prayers of her people and Greatness inside of her, she rose to meet the challenge.

God did not place you here to merely exist. He deliberately sent you here for such a time as this. He did not place you here to merely get by or survive. Embrace the Great inside you! Let that light shine so that others will see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven (Matthew 5:16).

He knows you. He knows exactly what you need. He sees where you are and what you have walked through to get here. Whether you realized it or not, He was walking with you. He knows where you are headed, and He has gone on before you to prepare the way. Don’t let the world weigh you down. Don’t let the critics slow you down. Don’t let the burdens bring you down. Do let the greatness of God arise in you, and let His enemies scatter before you. Rise up and shine!



Today's Blessing


Heavenly Father, thank You for sending me to this very place for such a time as this. I may not fully understand Your purpose for me, but I trust Your plan. I may not see where we are going, but I know that You will guide my steps. You lead, and I will follow. In Jesus’ name…amen.

Matt Hagee
