I am glad to tell you that you can be what you want to be as a child of God. The enemy has no power over your future and he cannot stop you except you want him to. He doesn’t have a say over your tomorrow until you give him the right to do so. Why? Because you are none of his and you are no longer his slave or captive. It is written: “we know that we belong to God even though the whole world is under the rule of the evil one” (1 John 5:19)
See, the whole world is under the rule or government of the evil one (Satan) but you are not. You are not in the government in which Satan is the head and lord. You are not under the rule or government of Satan so he can’t determine your future. That is, he does not have power over your tomorrow. He does not have a say over your destiny until you give him the right to do so. He only has power and a say over his own children.
There are two kinds of people in the world today, namely, the children of Satan and children of God. As a person, it is either you are a child of the devil or a child of God. The question is: who are you, a child of God or satan? It is a question you must answer today! It is written: “what is born of the flesh is flesh; and what is born of the Spirit is spirit” (John 3:6)
I would like to say that if you are born again, you are a child of God because you are born of God by the Holy Spirit. And because you are born of God, you have the life and nature of God in your entire being. The life and nature of God in you makes you a new creation. It makes you a superhuman with God’s ability to do what God can do. It makes you different from anyone that is not born again. You have divine abilities within you to be like God and do what can do. The life of God in you is the same life in God and in Jesus. Jesus said: “For even as the Father has life in himself, so he has given the Son to have life in himself” (John 5:26) and “And this is the testimony that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that has the Son has life; he that has not the Son has not life” (John 5:11-12)
Beloved, this life of God makes God the creator and source of life to all things and beings in heaven and on earth. This divine life is a creative ability of God that accompanies God’s words, decrees and commandments. That is why when He speaks it comes to pass. This is because of the life of God in His words. Jesus said that the words that I speak are life and spirit (Jn 6:63).
See, you have become partaker of this life and nature. You have the creative ability of God in you. Your enemy, the devil, knows this fact and that is why he always bombards your mind with wrong things, evil thoughts, and imaginations and dreams so that you can keep on saying wrong things in order to control your life and mess it up for you. The devil knows that out of abundance the mouth speaks. This is the reason why his angels are constantly filling your mind/spirit with their evil visions, dreams and plans for your life. He knows that you have the final say in every issue of your life.
Thus, he fills your mind with evil thoughts, images of hopelessness, failure, poverty, pictures of hardship and helplessness so that you can say them in order to make them happen for you. He knows that when you say those wrong things about yourself, finances, home, career and business that you have permitted him (the devil) to do it in your life. That is why many Christians are suffering, failures, mediocre, sick and poor today. The devil is just using them to afflict them by making them use the creative power in them negatively. As a result, permitting the devil by their utterances to steal their joy, peace, health, prosperity, marriage, etc. The devil knows that by your words you will be justified or condemned. He knows that when you will decree a thing and it shall be established unto you (Matt.12:37, Job 22:28).
Beloved, the life of God in you makes you a creative being like God your Father and that is why you can’t speak anyhow for whatever you say will surely come to pass. It is high time you became conscious of this so that you can begin to create your future now.
Hear this, there is blessing in your mouth, speak it over your life. Stop saying what you don’t want in your life. Stop affirming and confirming what you don’t want to see in your life. Every wrong or negative word is a wrong demand to the spirit realm which is the causal realm. Anytime you repeat it, you reinforce those words to come to pass in your life physically.
There is no joke for God’s children in the spirit realm because every word carries creative ability whether you believe it or not.
Friend, as long as you are speaking poverty, failure, sickness, etc even though you don’t want them, you will keep on having them no matter how hard you pray. You can fast, go to mountain, drink anointing oil, go for deliverance, wash your feet and sow seeds as long as your mouth keep on saying the opposite of what you really want, your life will remain the same. Nothing will actually change in your life until you begin to say what you actually want in your mind and with your mouth. The only way out of where you are is to speak yourself out of it now and begin to talk where you want to be and you will keep on saying it until you have it. Now use the life of God i.e. creative ability of God in you to change your life and the world around you. After this teaching you can’t afford to speak anyhow for whatever you say will surely come to pass.

Prayer that works Wonders 3
In this edition we want to look at how you can bless yourself and change your life. Blessing oneself as a child of God in God’s way of doing it is a type of prayer that works wonders. As I said, in the last two editions, that we cannot pray like Old Testament believers because they prayed like servants. But we are to pray like sons of God because our Daddy owns the universe. As a result, we have to follow the way the Father does it. The Bible says: “Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children” (Eph.5:1).
“Jesus said to them, “truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own , but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever he does, that the Son does likewise.” (John 5:19)
In other words, Jesus was Father’s imitator. And that was why he had God’s kind of results. He always followed the Father’s ways of doing things, and thus He kept on having Father’s kind of results. Likewise for you to have Father’s kind of results, you have to follow His ways. So then, how does God bless people? The Bible says:
“And if you say, ‘what shall we eat in the seven year, if we may not sow or gather in our crop?’ I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, so that it will bring forth fruit for three years.” (Lev.25:21)
“The LORD will command the blessing upon you in your barns, and in all that you undertake; and he will bless in the land which the Lord your God gives you” (Deut.28:8)
Beloved, this is the way God blesses His people by commanding blessings upon them. Hence, as a child of God you can command blessings of God upon yourself thereby putting blessings of God on yourself daily. Then you ask me, is it true? Yes, it is true. You can bless yourself daily and you will be blessed abundantly. I have 3 witnesses in the Bible that you can bless yourself and you will be blessed indeed. It is written:
“YOU shall also decide and decree a thing, and it shall be established for you; and the light (of God’s favour) shall shine upon your ways.” (Job22:28)
“For by YOUR words you will be justified, and by YOUR words you will be condemned” Matt.12:17)
“And so I tell all of you: what YOU prohibit on earth will be prohibited in heaven, and what YOU permit on earth will be permitted in heaven” Matt.18:18)
See, all these scriptures are saying that you can change your life now because you have the final say over the issues of your life not the devil or enemies. It is what you are saying that God will continue to permit in your life. God says that when you decree a thing or bless yourself it shall be established for you. It shall be established means that it shall rest upon you or take root in your life and no power or being in heaven will be able to stop it.
It is a pity that many children of God do not know that they have the final say over their lives not the devil, and also have the power to change their situations within them. And because they don’t know they consistently affirm what the enemy has done or is doing in their lives. As a result, they allow the devil to put curses like poverty, failure at the edge of breakthrough, marital failure, sickness, and diseases, etc on them daily.
Hear this, as long as you are saying negative things about yourself and life, you can’t be blessed by God until you change what you are saying and what you are saying align with God has said about you. See, it is either you are blessing or cursing yourself daily.
Friends, now is the time to begin to bless yourself with prosperity, sound health, success, favour, wealth, enlargement, etc. When you say I am favored, favour comes upon you. When you say I am making progress in every area of my life, God releases upon you power and grace to make progress. When you say I am living above every impossibility, He releases the power of possibility upon your life. When you say I am getting richer daily, He releases the power to get wealth upon your life and open doors of opportunity to places of wealth for you. Your prayer life must be filled with these kinds of declaration for it is what you declare that will be established for you in the spirit realm.
Stop saying what the devil wants you to say. When you begin to say or saying what the devil wants you to say, you are indirectly cursing yourself and that is what you will have. As from this day when you wake up in the morning, command success, prosperity, enlargement, increase, divine health, favor, mercy, wealth, etc upon your life, business, career, children, etc in the name of Jesus. For instance, I used to say that I bless myself with the blessings of heaven above, the dew of heaven, silver and gold in abundance, the grain, wine and oil in abundance, the fatness of the earth, etc. I used to decree that anyone that blesses me today is blessed hundred fold and anyone that curses me today is cursed hundred fold with the same curses in the name of Jesus.
Friend, it is working! It is high time you change your fortunes.
“Jesus said to them, “truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own , but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever he does, that the Son does likewise.” (John 5:19)
In other words, Jesus was Father’s imitator. And that was why he had God’s kind of results. He always followed the Father’s ways of doing things, and thus He kept on having Father’s kind of results. Likewise for you to have Father’s kind of results, you have to follow His ways. So then, how does God bless people? The Bible says:
“And if you say, ‘what shall we eat in the seven year, if we may not sow or gather in our crop?’ I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, so that it will bring forth fruit for three years.” (Lev.25:21)
“The LORD will command the blessing upon you in your barns, and in all that you undertake; and he will bless in the land which the Lord your God gives you” (Deut.28:8)
Beloved, this is the way God blesses His people by commanding blessings upon them. Hence, as a child of God you can command blessings of God upon yourself thereby putting blessings of God on yourself daily. Then you ask me, is it true? Yes, it is true. You can bless yourself daily and you will be blessed abundantly. I have 3 witnesses in the Bible that you can bless yourself and you will be blessed indeed. It is written:
“YOU shall also decide and decree a thing, and it shall be established for you; and the light (of God’s favour) shall shine upon your ways.” (Job22:28)
“For by YOUR words you will be justified, and by YOUR words you will be condemned” Matt.12:17)
“And so I tell all of you: what YOU prohibit on earth will be prohibited in heaven, and what YOU permit on earth will be permitted in heaven” Matt.18:18)
See, all these scriptures are saying that you can change your life now because you have the final say over the issues of your life not the devil or enemies. It is what you are saying that God will continue to permit in your life. God says that when you decree a thing or bless yourself it shall be established for you. It shall be established means that it shall rest upon you or take root in your life and no power or being in heaven will be able to stop it.
It is a pity that many children of God do not know that they have the final say over their lives not the devil, and also have the power to change their situations within them. And because they don’t know they consistently affirm what the enemy has done or is doing in their lives. As a result, they allow the devil to put curses like poverty, failure at the edge of breakthrough, marital failure, sickness, and diseases, etc on them daily.
Hear this, as long as you are saying negative things about yourself and life, you can’t be blessed by God until you change what you are saying and what you are saying align with God has said about you. See, it is either you are blessing or cursing yourself daily.
Friends, now is the time to begin to bless yourself with prosperity, sound health, success, favour, wealth, enlargement, etc. When you say I am favored, favour comes upon you. When you say I am making progress in every area of my life, God releases upon you power and grace to make progress. When you say I am living above every impossibility, He releases the power of possibility upon your life. When you say I am getting richer daily, He releases the power to get wealth upon your life and open doors of opportunity to places of wealth for you. Your prayer life must be filled with these kinds of declaration for it is what you declare that will be established for you in the spirit realm.
Stop saying what the devil wants you to say. When you begin to say or saying what the devil wants you to say, you are indirectly cursing yourself and that is what you will have.

Friend, it is working! It is high time you change your fortunes.
Prayer that Work Wonders 2
In the last edition it was established that the prayers that work wonders are commanding prayers. In the New Testament God our Father does not expect us to pray like beggars. The only time we as believers can beg God our Father in prayer is when we pray for unbelievers. Why? This is because they are not part of the kingdom of God and what is meant for the children cannot be given to dogs. It is written: “And he said to her, “Let children first be fed, for it is not right to take the children’s bread and throw to the dogs.” (Mark 7:27).
The sinners are the dogs not children. Thus, the benefits of the kingdom do not belong to them but they belong to the children. Now for a sinner to enjoy the benefits of the kingdom of God, a citizen of the kingdom must stand in for him in prayer before the Father since he has no say before the Father. This is why God is not expecting His children to beg for anything in His kingdom like sinners. The benefits of the kingdom of God are spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus and it is only those in Christ Jesus that can enjoy them freely and richly. It is an insult to God the Father for His child to be begging Him for healing which Jesus Christ His Son has paid for with His life on the cross.
Consequently, God your Father expect you to order for anything you need. That is why you have to study the prayer life of our Lord Jesus in the Gospels and how He taught His disciples to pray. In fact, Jesus our Lord taught His disciples commanding prayers. It is written:
“Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matt.18:18 RSV)
“And so I tell all of you: what you prohibit on earth will be prohibited in heaven, and what you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven” (Matt.18:18 GNB)
Binding and loosing, prohibiting and permitting are commanding prayers. According to the scripture above, it is only commanding prayers that put the heaven to work on your behalf as a child of God. They are prayers that give heavens sleepless night over your matter and keep your angels working 24 hours until you stop giving commands.
Friend, you have been asking, now is the time to begin to release. When it comes to material things such as money, clothes, food, etc, you have got to release them to come to you from any force withholding them from you. The bible says: “His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who has called us to his own glory and excellence” (2 Peter 1:3).
Beloved, in Christ Jesus God the Father has given you all things that pertain to your living well here on earth. He has granted you all resources that you will need to fulfil your destiny. He has granted you destiny helpers that will assist you to fill your destiny. He has granted you that money you need to pay your house rent, pay your children school fees, start your business, finish your house project, etc.
Then you ask me: why I am not getting them? You are not getting them because you are not praying correctly. See, material things, destiny helpers, money, etc are here on earth not in heaven. And God has given them to you in Christ Jesus according to 2 Peter 1:3. It means that a power or a being is withholding them from you or depriving you of them here on earth. That is why you have to order the power or being withholding them to release them to you for the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous (Psalm 125:3). You only loose what has been bound and you only release what has been withheld.
It is high time you began to loose things that are yours from the grip of mammon or the devil. The only prayer that will bring material blessings and destiny helpers to you is commanding prayers. You have asked enough, now is the time to release them. Your angels are waiting for your commands today. Give them jobs to do.
The sinners are the dogs not children. Thus, the benefits of the kingdom do not belong to them but they belong to the children. Now for a sinner to enjoy the benefits of the kingdom of God, a citizen of the kingdom must stand in for him in prayer before the Father since he has no say before the Father. This is why God is not expecting His children to beg for anything in His kingdom like sinners.

“And so I tell all of you: what you prohibit on earth will be prohibited in heaven, and what you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven” (Matt.18:18 GNB)
Binding and loosing, prohibiting and permitting are commanding prayers. According to the scripture above, it is only commanding prayers that put the heaven to work on your behalf as a child of God. They are prayers that give heavens sleepless night over your matter and keep your angels working 24 hours until you stop giving commands.
Friend, you have been asking, now is the time to begin to release. When it comes to material things such as money, clothes, food, etc, you have got to release them to come to you from any force withholding them from you. The bible says: “His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who has called us to his own glory and excellence” (2 Peter 1:3).
Beloved, in Christ Jesus God the Father has given you all things that pertain to your living well here on earth. He has granted you all resources that you will need to fulfil your destiny. He has granted you destiny helpers that will assist you to fill your destiny. He has granted you that money you need to pay your house rent, pay your children school fees, start your business, finish your house project, etc.
Then you ask me: why I am not getting them? You are not getting them because you are not praying correctly. See, material things, destiny helpers, money, etc are here on earth not in heaven. And God has given them to you in Christ Jesus according to 2 Peter 1:3. It means that a power or a being is withholding them from you or depriving you of them here on earth. That is why you have to order the power or being withholding them to release them to you for the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous (Psalm 125:3). You only loose what has been bound and you only release what has been withheld.
It is high time you began to loose things that are yours from the grip of mammon or the devil. The only prayer that will bring material blessings and destiny helpers to you is commanding prayers. You have asked enough, now is the time to release them. Your angels are waiting for your commands today. Give them jobs to do.
Prayer that works Wonders 1
I am glad to tell you that you can change your life now and forever through commanding prayers. Commanding prayers are prayers that work wonders in the kingdom of God. It is the key to walk and live in miracles as a child of God. It is the key to possess all things that are yours in Christ Jesus. Why? Because all things are yours in Christ Jesus if you are born again. The bible says: “So let no one boast of men. For all things are yours,” (1 Cor.3:21).
Consequently, God does not expect you to beg for things that are yours already. Friend, in Christ Jesus you are a son of God and if a son, then an heir of God like Jesus your Lord and Head. It is written: “It is the Spirit himself bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and fellow- heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. (Rom.8:16-17)
As a child of God, you are a fellow-heir with Jesus and everything that belongs to the Father is yours. Silver and gold are yours. The earth and its fullness are yours. Your Father owns the universe! It is high time you began to access the treasures of your Father in the earth via commanding prayers.
Commanding prayer is a prayer that will release what is yours to you here on earth. You have to understand that in the new covenant you have been blessed already by the Father as a son. It is written: “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places” (Eph.1:3)
Wow! You have been blessed with all spiritual blessings in Christ Jesus. God has blessed you and if you are blessed by Him, there is no power or any being in heaven and on earth that can undo it except you (Nos 23: 8, 20).
What are spiritual blessings? Spiritual blessings are benefits of redemption. They are benefits that belong to the believer through the death, resurrection and exaltation of Jesus Christ to the right hand of the Father. They are God’s gifts to His children. They cannot be earned. They are not reward of self-righteousness. They cannot be bought. They are too expensive that they cost God the life of His Son so that they can be yours freely and richly in Christ Jesus.
Spiritual blessings are spiritual benevolent substances in the spirit realm but they have profound effects in the physical realm. You can’t see them with your eyes as entities but you can see their manifestation in the physical realm. For example, favour is a spiritual blessing. Salvation, healing, deliverance from the powers of darkness, wealth, victory, dominion, peace, joy, mercy, grace, wisdom, etc are spiritual blessings in Christ Jesus.
In essence, God the Father has blessed you already with all these blessings. In Christ Jesus favour, wealth, healing, divine health, etc are yours already. They are yours in Christ Jesus; you don’t need to beg for them. God has credited your spiritual account with all these blessings. God your Father has credited your account in heavenly places in Christ Jesus with glory, wealth, favour, all forms of grace, divine health, mercy, victory and dominion over sin and the devil, etc.
Friend, you have waited enough for God your Father to do something but He will never do it until you do it here on earth. Why? Because it is written: “whatsoever you bind on earth is bound in heaven and whatsoever you loose on earth is loosed in heaven.” (Matt.18:18)
This is to say that God and His angels will never do anything in your life on earth until you place a demand here on earth. This is the reason for commanding prayers. In other words, you have to be proactive in the spirit realm by releasing, downloading, calling for and loosing things that God has already blessed you with. They are in spiritual forms but you need them here on earth.
Beloved, you don’t wait for a change in the spirit realm but you effect or cause a change via your utterances. You have to be proactive! How? Because you have been given already, you have to command them upon your life, family, career and business. You have waited enough for favour and mercy now is the time to command them upon your life. You have waited enough for a job; you had better call for one now. You have waited enough for life partner; now call for the one you want into your life.
You have begged and asked enough, start commanding upon your life and summoning into your life all that you need and want for they are all yours in Christ Jesus (Pls, read Lev.25:21 and Ezk. 36:29). To be continued.
Consequently, God does not expect you to beg for things that are yours already. Friend, in Christ Jesus you are a son of God and if a son, then an heir of God like Jesus your Lord and Head.
