1 Samuel 3:19 says "And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground". This verse shows us something very significant about God; He places premium on words. Jesus emphasized the importance of words several times in His teachings. In Matthew 12:36, He said, “…every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.” That’s a serious warning. Notice He didn’t say men shall give account for some idle words that they speak, but for every idle word. Idle words are empty, ineffectual words; careless jesting and ramblings; coarse language. In Ephesians 4:29, He said, “Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers...... click on the link below to study yesterday's Reality Check  👇👇👇 https://thekingsnation20.blogspot.com/2025/01/realitycheck_24.html

SATURDAY, JANUARY 25TH 2025 HE WAS OUR RANSOM  When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses (Matthew 8:16-17).   PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Matthew, in his own writing, lets us know in the verses above that Jesus came to fulfil what Isaiah had prophesied: the removal of our sins. He gave His life as a ransom for many: "And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many" (Matthew 20:27-28). A ransom is the consideration or what is demanded to be paid for the release of a captive. The whole world was captive to the devil, captive to sin and therefore condemned to die because of sin. We were legal captives of the devil unt...

Some individuals may enter your sphere only to steer you off course, veering your trajectory downward. Exercise discernment in your friendships. Surround yourself with those who ignite your potential and enrich your existence. Conversely, distance yourself from those who harbor envy, belittle your aspirations, or undermine your progress. Sometimes, to truly make an impact and stride forward, you must bid farewell to certain connections. Remember, your circle shapes your perspective and aspirations. If you linger among those who limit their ambitions, you risk adopting their mindset. Conversely, aligning with individuals who soar high encourages you to elevate yourself. Friendship is a conscious choice, not an obligation. The power to cultivate meaningful connections lies within your grasp. Choose wisely, for your companions can either weigh you down or propel you towards greatness..... click on the link below to study yesterday's Daily juice  👇👇👇 https://thekingsnation20.blogspo...

Take charge of your health and rule over your body with the Word of God. If you notice any problem in any part of your body, declare, “In the Name of Jesus, I cut off this anomaly from my body.” Don’t excuse sickness; don’t let it hinder you from making an impact in your world with the Gospel! Refuse to yield your body to sickness. Divine health is your right in Christ; it’s God’s will for you. He said in 3 John 1:2, “...I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” The Word of God is medicine to your body (Proverbs 4:22). Choose to be healthy and strong. Live by God’s Word, and refuse to observe lying vanities..... click on the link below to study yesterday's Reality Check  👇👇👇 https://thekingsnation20.blogspot.com/2025/01/realitycheck_23.html

   CHRIST JESUS OUR SUBSTITUTE For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him (2 Corinthians 5:21). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME The word substitution, even though not expressly used in the Scriptures, defines and properly encapsulates what Jesus came to do. It means to replace something or someone with another, to take the place of another or to put in another one's place. Jesus being our substitute means He came to take our place so that we might take His place. How wonderful that is! No religious leader ever did that; no one ever did that for anybody, but Jesus did. Even the Prophets prophesied about this in the Old Testament; they prophesied about the sufferings of Christ and the glory that should follow (1 Peter 1:11). The Prophet Isaiah, for example, tells us in Isaiah 53:4-6, "Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounde...

The battles that count aren’t the ones for gold or money. The battles within yourself–the inner conflicts–that’s where it’s at.  No matter who you are today, you can always change for the better. You can't expect to draw people into your life who are kind, loving, confident and generous if you are thinking and acting in cruel, weak, and selfish ways. You must put forth what you want to attract.  Many have insulted and turned away people that were divinely placed on their path and orchestrated to help them fulfill their destiny. Build good relationships with others. We are in a partnership with all other human beings, not a contest to be judged better than others and worse than others. Treat people with respect and courtesy. You can easily measure the character of a man by the way he treats and talks to others..... click on the link below to study yesterday's Daily juice  👇👇👇 https://thekingsnation20.blogspot.com/2025/01/daily-juice_22.html

1 Thessalonians 5:17 says "Pray without ceasing". God never tells us to do something we couldn’t do. Never take this spiritual admonition as an exaggeration; take the Word of God seriously. When you re-interpret such clear instructions of the Spirit, you weaken the meaning and then lose the power of it. Remember, the Church is the only restraining force against the evil manipulations and dictates of Satan. Through our prayers, we contend for the souls of men, and cancel the wicked plans of the devil, and establish the will of God in the earth. Always take advantage of the privilege, opportunity and blessings of prayer. When it’s time to pray, avoid all forms of distractions. If you’re going to walk in God’s unusual blessings continually, then you must pray without ceasing...... click on the link below to study yesterday's Reality Check  👇👇👇 https://thekingsnation20.blogspot.com/2025/01/realitycheck_22.html

 A must Watch 🔥🔥🔥 Everything Pastor Chris said in prophecy about this particular situation has been fulfilled. Watch and be blessed.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 23RD 2025 THE FORMAL DECLARATION OF OUR INNOCENCE But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification (Romans 4:24-25). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. In our previous study, we learnt that we’re the proof of God’s fairness and impartiality. That’s what it means to be the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. Now the latter part of our opening scripture reveals something extraordinary; it’s one of the most mind-blowing verses of the Bible. It says Jesus Christ was delivered for our offences and raised back to life, not for our forgiveness, but for our justification.  This staggers the understanding of the human mind; it’s purely beyond belief. He was delivered to death for our offences and raised for our justification so that He (God) might be just and the justifier of the one who believes in Jesus Christ. How could an of...

Always remember that your present situation is not your final destination; your best is yet to come! Don’t give up because things are difficult; push yourself more! One bad chapter doesn't mean your story is over. Don't look down on yourself because of what you might be going through at the moment. What you are going through is not a statement that you are finished.  Regardless of what your circumstances or problems are, you're never more than one word from God away from a miracle. The Lord knows exactly where you are and how to get you to where you're supposed to be. All you need is just the slightest instruction; a word from God!..... click on the link below to study yesterday's Daily juice  👇👇👇 https://thekingsnation20.blogspot.com/2025/01/daily-juice_21.html

Romans 12:1 says I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. Being born again, though your body is the temple of God, you’re its caretaker or custodian. It’s your responsibility to manage your body and keep it in health, in its utmost shape for God to use. Satan will try to do anything to ravage your body; he’ll run rampage in your body if you let him; but you must say, “No!” you have to stop the devil from manipulating any part of your body. Use the authority that’s been granted you in Christ; use the Name of Jesus. Just as it’s your job to manage your mind, it’s your responsibility as well to manage your body..... click on the link below to study yesterday's Reality Check  👇👇👇 https://thekingsnation20.blogspot.com/2025/01/realitycheck_20.html

  WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 22ND 2025 HIS FAIRNESS AND IMPARTIALITY  For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him (2 Corinthians 5:21). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME What we just read is so huge; it's one of the unexplored tablelands in the Christian experience. I would to God every Christian understood what it means for us to be called the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. It's different from us being made righteous; the Greek word there is "Dikaiosune" and it means equity, the quality of fairness or impartiality. What this means is that we're God's proof of His fairness and impartiality. We're the manifestation of His equity. This is so wonderful! Recall what the Bible says in Ephesians 3:10, "To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God." It means that God points to us as evidence to all principalities...

For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power (Colossians 2:9–10). The totality of divinity resides in Jesus Christ. When you see Jesus, you’re looking at the fullness of the God-head; He’s the house of God in entirety. Whether or not you agree with this doesn’t make any difference. You may look at Him and say He’s just a man, like they said in Bible days, but He’s Himself God. “Fullness” in our theme scripture is the Greek word “pleroma” which means a completeness, where nothing that’s necessary is out; where there’s no shortage; a perfect completion. And something most amazing about this is that the Bible says, “You’re complete in Him who is the head of all principality and power.” When God looks at you, He sees completeness; everything you require for life and godliness is in you: “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowl...

  Every possibility you are praying for is already within and around you. You attract it by honour through discernment. Honour must be an integral part of your life, if not, life may be difficult for you. Honour is a weapon; it's not only the sword that wins. You cannot attract what you despise. What you respect, you'll attract. Anyone who gives honour will undoubtedly be honoured, and honour is the seed for longevity.  When you are being forced or reprimanded to honour those whom God has placed over you, then there's a problem. There are some challenges that may not go no matter how long you pray until you begin to honour those whom God has placed over you. There are opportunities that wouldn't be opened by prayers but by honour.... click on the link below to study yesterday's Daily juice  👇👇👇 https://thekingsnation20.blogspot.com/2025/01/daily-juice_20.html

  TUESDAY, JANUARY 21ST  JESUS HAS THE KEYS OF HELL AND DEATH  l am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death (Revelation 1:18). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME One of the very important points we referenced in our previous study is that Jesus defeated Satan in hell, not when He was on the Cross. The whole subject of crucifixion was an entire process, describing Christ's arrest, death and burial. His victory on the Cross was yielding Himself in obedience, even unto death, whereas Adam disobeyed God: "For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous"(Romans 5:19). Adam didn't yield himself in obedience to God's will, but Jesus did. That's why the Bible says, "Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name" (Philippians 2:9), because He was obedient unto death—the death on the Cro...

You have what it takes to win, irrespective of the adversities you may face in life. If you’ve found yourself in a precarious situation, be comforted; there’s someone living inside you, who is greater and stronger than Satan, the world, and all the troubles, elements and circumstances of this world—the Holy Spirit. You’re powered by the Holy Spirit. No wonder John said, “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4). Become ever more conscious of the Spirit—His power, glory and ministry in your life..... click on the link below to study Yesterday's Reality Check  👇👇👇 https://thekingsnation20.blogspot.com/2025/01/realitycheck_19.html

MONDAY, JANUARY 20TH 2025 HIS VICTORY OVER SATAN IN HELL And the hostile princes and rulers He shook off from Himself, and boldly displayed them as His conquests, when by the Cross He triumphed over them (Colossians 2:15 WNT). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Christ's victory on the Cross and in Hell wasn't for Himself; it was for us. When He was crucified on the Cross, He took our place on that Cross. That means when He was crucified, you were crucified. When He died, you died. When they took His body off of the Cross and buried Him in the grave, you were buried in the grave. Then the Bible says He went to hell; He was taken to hell because every sinner who died was taken to hell. So when Jesus died, He went to hell as a prisoner because He had taken our place of sin. The Bible says He was made sin, who knew no sin: "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him"  (2 Corinthians 5:21). Therefore, on account of ou...

There is no sense in punishing your present for the mistakes of your past. God does not keep a record of wrongs. Forgive yourself, grow from it, and then let it go.  You carry so much love in your heart, give some to yourself. Everyone in your life are meant to be in your journey but not all of them are meant to stay till the end. Moments become memories and people become lessons. Your circle is supposed to be proud of you, not jealous of you. Whether it's people, thoughts or habits; you need to get rid of some things to make room for the better.  Your life is a result of the choices you make, if you don't like your life and the way it's going, start making better choices. Wherever you are, bloom with grace. One day you're going to look back on all the progress you've made and be so glad that you didn't give up...... click on the link below to study previous Daily juice  👇👇👇 https://thekingsnation20.blogspot.com/2025/01/daily-juice.html

SUNDAY, JANUARY 19TH 2025 UNRUFFLED BY CHALLENGES Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us (Romans 8:35-37). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. What we just read should help you further understand why the Bible admonishes us to rejoice evermore (1 Thessalonians 5:16) and be anxious for nothing (Philippians 4:6). Nothing is to your disadvantage; we win in the midst of adversities. Those who don’t know this spend their time writing down all the problems they want God to fix for them. They’re so consumed by their troubles that they forget the simple yet profound instruction God has given us in His Word.  He said in 1 Thessalonians 5:16, “Be happy [in your faith] and rejoice and be glad-hearted continu...

God’s people are soldiers; we’re built to withstand and prevail against the pressures and adversities of life. There’re no sissies in God’s army. Don’t faint in the day of adversity. The TLB version of the Bible says in Proverbs 24:10: “You are a poor specimen if you can’t stand the pressure of adversity.” Be strong and tough for Christ! It makes no difference how fiercely you’re persecuted for the Gospel; count it all joy! 2 Corinthians 4:17 says, “For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.” Always remember, the contrary winds make your roots go deeper. The quality of your personality has to be tested. The bigger the trouble, the greater your victories. Without pressures, your greatness may never manifest..... click on the link below to study yesterday's Reality Check  👇👇👇 https://thekingsnation20.blogspot.com/2025/01/realitycheck.html
