SPIRITUAL LITERACY
Romans 10:17 (KJV)
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Christianity is the only belief system which is intellectual. Faith comes by hearing and hearing the Word of God. You get information into yourself for you to understand and walk in the light of Jesus Christ. Remember, the Bible even confirms that it’s impossible to please God without faith. Without that “faith component” that you get through knowledge, it is utterly impossible to please God.
In basic terms, Christianity is far from mediocrity. We are the enlightened ones. We are the ones with the light through the Word of God. For you to be called a child of God requires spiritual literacy. Square up your shoulders and walk boldly into the realm of dominance. You are a possessor of divine knowledge, and every fibre of your being is wired to succeed. As you read this devotional, more light and knowledge are getting into your spirit, and you shall surely live a life of victory in the Name of Jesus.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. The great I Am lives inside of me. I am a light giver to everyone around me. Hallelujah.

2 Peter 1:12 (KJV)
Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and be established in the present truth.
When we were kids, it was impossible for us to understand certain concepts of mathematics, science or geography because our brains couldn’t contain or understand those concepts. When wrestling with certain mathematical equations, we tended to say, “It can’t “or “It’s impossible” because of our inability to grasp the idea. When we were mature enough, we came to understand that one minus two (1-2) is a proper mathematics question and can give you a minus one (-1).
The same applies when it comes to faith. The Bible talks of being established in this present truth, which means there is past, present and future truth. You miss God and His ideas if you walk in His past truth. For you to be established in the present truth of God, you must stay in the Word, prayer, and communion with Him. God is doing strange miracles, signs and wonders in our time. You can only be a partaker of this if you walk in present truth.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I choose to walk in present truth. My ways are full of light, and I shall not stumble or fail in the Name of Jesus. Amen.

GENESIS 11:6-7 (KJV)
And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language, and this they begin to do; and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.
Culture is a set of beliefs that govern a society. One crucial element that forms the fibre of culture is language. All human societies use language. Language moulds our belief systems and conduct.
When the human race had one language at the Tower of Babel, they determined to build a tower that reached God. Even God couldn’t stop them and had to scatter them by introducing a diversity of languages. When you speak the language of God, everything you build shall stand. Don’t confuse your language as a child of God with that which comes from those in the world. When they say there is a going down, you shall continue to say there is a lifting up. Speak the language of success, and your whole life shall have the culture of success, progress and victory.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I am the seed of God and I bring the culture from my Father (God). I stand on what I believe, and I shall continue to speak it in the Name of Jesus. Amen.

John 15:5 (KJV)
I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
It takes common sense to understand that the blood that flows in your head is the same blood that flows in your entire body. It’s basic science. The nutrients that flow in the trunk of a tree are the same that flow to the branches. So when Jesus said, “I am the Vine, and you are the branches,” He meant the same life in Him is the same life flowing inside of us.
If you want to check the DNA of God, just check yourself. You carry God’s DNA, and nothing is missing or left on that. There is no situation that has the right to give you sleepless nights because you are born from above, and your genetic makeup is from above. You are an embodiment of God’s glory and nature. Take this day as a day to conquer, and show everything around you that you are born from that which is superior.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I am born from above and my DNA is of God. I’m made up of God components, and nothing shall hinder my success or progress all the days of my life. Amen.

Mark 11:23 (KJV)
For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
In science there are different types or dimensions of energy. Kinetic energy is power in motion producing results. There also is potential energy which is power that is just stored, not used or moving. Similarly, faith not practiced is power unrealized. It’s like a man carrying a dynamite but is unaware of the effect it can cause.
Jesus revealed to His disciples that they not only had the potential to curse trees but to move mountains from one location to another. You have a seed of faith inside of you, but it can only produce results if you start exercising it. You might not start by commanding the dead to rise, but at least your headache should go before you ask your pastor for prayer. Exercise that muscle called faith today concerning your business, health, or education. Command whatever is standing before you to move without any doubt. You have the spirit of faith, and whatsoever you speak shall be established.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I have the spirit of faith in me; therefore, I speak. Light is shining in every area of my life in the Name of Jesus. Amen.

Matthew 21:22 (KJV)
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
The account of the crippled man by the pool of Bethesda is a perfect example to put across today's verse adequately. The Lord Jesus asked the man if he wanted to be healed. Rather than answer 'yes,' right away he began to complain about how no one had helped him all these years. Sound familiar?
Someone reading this today does exactly that. They complain and whine in prayer but never ask. The verse for today says ASK! Simple! Don't beat about the bush trying to explain to God what negativity has happened in your life - cut to the chase.
The Lord will never withhold good things from you. So, be bold to make your requests known to Him today. Just ask!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I prophesy that what I request shall come to pass swiftly. My Father has already given me the best, and I shall live and walk in it in Jesus' Name! Amen.

2 Timothy 3:16 (KJV)
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.
Think about that verse for a second! All scripture is given by the inspiration of God; that means it's God-breathed. Then it says it's profitable, meaning it gives you the advantage. What a word!
So essentially, the scriptures are for doctrine, meaning they teach and condition you. The word is also for reproof and correction. The word 'correction' there is epanórthōsis in Greek, which means to fix. So the Word is for FIXING anything that is in need of repair in your life and circumstances. Do you see that? Have you ever seen it that way? The Word doesn't just correct character flaws; it fixes whatever else is going wrong with you so that you are restored. Whether it's money issues, health issues, relationship issues, etc. The Word will epanórthōsis you. It will fix you and anything wrong in your life.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I have a fixer on my side. I can send the Word to fix all my problems. Today I rise and send the Word as a protocol to my future so that every obstacle is fixed in the Name of Jesus! Amen.

Deuteronomy 29:5 (NIV)
Yet the LORD says, “During the forty years that I led you through the wilderness, your clothes did not wear out, nor did the sandals on your feet.
God offers each of His children superior provision! The Bible tells us that when the Israelites were freed from life as slaves in Egypt and were in the wilderness, God attended to every one of their needs. Despite the terrible and arid conditions of the desert, they weren't scorched by the hot sun, their clothes never wore out, and their feet were not swollen with pain. The Israelites were Old Testament beings. What more you, who has the Holy Spirit! That same God is providing for and nurturing you today!
Some make the mistake of trying to take on life's challenges all by themselves without fully realising that Christ wants to provide for them! Even if it appears like your situation is irreconcilable, or you are in the depths of the wilderness and anarchy surrounds you, remember that you live independent of circumstances and that if you recognise His presence in your life, He will give you superior provision, love and care.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I live independently of the situations around me! God is with me always! God will provide for me no matter the challenges I may face! In Christ I have SUPERIOR PROVISION! Amen.

Psalm 1:3 (KJV)
And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
There are some Christians who say, "We shouldn't always expect good from God; we should sometimes expect bad things because life is full of ups and downs." That's a great misconception of the message of the Gospel. God is not the mastermind of the evil and sufferings in the world. His dream, which has already been actualized for you in Christ Jesus, is for you to walk in complete prosperity. That includes money but goes even beyond it!
You see, no one born into this world was destined by God to be poor, sick, broken, depressed, downcast or afflicted. Rather, God's will is for all men to prosper and be in health, even as their souls prosper (3 John 1:2). He seeks the prosperity of your spirit, your soul, and your physical body. This is the reason you shouldn't accommodate or accept sickness, poverty, defeat, or expect money only; His will is beyond money. Live in this reality today!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I live a life above circumstances, way above them. My prosperity is guaranteed and includes money and things beyond it. I am wealthy, in the Name of Jesus!

Luke 6:12-13 (NIV)
One of those days Jesus went out to a mountainside to pray and spent the night praying to God. When morning came, he called his disciples to him and chose twelve of them, whom he also designated apostles.
If you want to live a life of success, who you choose to surround yourself with is essential! Today’s verse shows us how the Lord Jesus knew the importance of who He surrounded himself with and the lasting effects of that choice. He is shown going into a private area and spending a night's worth of prayer dedicated to this decision. Often, Christians choose their companions based on the standards the world has set rather than spiritual discernment! Don't choose friends based on whether someone enjoys the same television programmes as you. Choose people who align with your spiritual calling.
Daniel is a perfect example from the Bible; he had great friends. When the king gave a decree that would have been detrimental and got him in trouble, Daniel called upon his friends to pray, and God gave them the solution to their predicament. These are the kind of friends you should keep, friends that bring you closer to God and inspire you in things that are right!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I'm guided by the Holy Spirit when choosing who I surround myself with. I choose friends that motivate me unto good works and never the contrary, in Jesus' Name!

SPIRITUAL POWERHOUSE
Romans 8:5-6 (KJV)
For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
A common misconception amongst Christendom is that giving your life to Christ is the entirety of your walk with God. However, giving your life to Christ is simply the first step in your multifaceted journey. You must be conscious of your oneness with the Holy Spirit. God has made you, and God is a Spirit, meaning your very origin as a child of God is of the Spirit! To live life accordingly, you must reject the flesh at every turn! Whenever you are pushed or motivated to do something, question yourself on whether that motivation is coming from God, your flesh or even Satan!
Consult the Holy Spirit regarding your education, your job, your marriage and your children! When you allow the Holy Spirit to guide you, you will experience peace that exceeds what the world offers. Your very success in life depends on your ability to discern things of the Spirit. Ensure you read the word daily, separating yourself from those in the world, and see yourself become a spiritual powerhouse!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I AM A SPIRITUAL POWERHOUSE! I live a life governed by the spirit of God, and the flesh has no power over my decision-making!

Luke 5:16 (NLT)
But Jesus often withdrew to the wilderness for prayer.
In a world with so many distractions, it is easy to neglect alone time with God. If you do not recognise the importance of solitude, there’s a lot you can miss in life! It’s vital for every Christian to establish private time with the Lord. Before revelation, there is isolation! When you learn the value of having private time with the Lord, you’ll be amazed at the lasting effects it will have on your life.
Several times in the Bible, we see the Lord Jesus set times to be completely alone with the Father! Every Christian should make the effort to have one-on-one time with the King of kings!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
As I spend time with the Lord alone, the intensity of His glory in my life is increased. I'm transfigured from glory to glory, in Jesus' Name!

Ecclesiastes 9:11 (KJV)
I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
Many Christians make the mistake of comparing their journey to the journey of others! Phrases like, "I know where I'm supposed to be by now," whilst popular, are not of God! Today's verse informs us that the race is not to the swift. Just because you’re not where you thought you’d be by now doesn't mean God has forgotten you or you are less important in His eyes. Your time and chance will come!
In athletic circles, Olympic sprinters are encouraged to focus on the finish line and not to look back over their shoulders during a race, as it can potentially slow them down. In the same way, when you look at others’ race instead of focusing on your own lane, you may lose sight of the finish line and slow yourself down! Learn to focus solely on what God has called you to be. Grow in His Word every day, and don’t be concerned about what others are doing!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I am in my own lane! I am focused on my finish line; I do not look over my shoulder during the race in Jesus’ Name! Amen.

Philippians 4:6-7 (KJV)
Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Oftentimes, you go through difficulties in your life and don’t know how to fix them simply because you were not equipped with the potent power of prayer! God did not tell us to pray just for praying’s sake but because there is a specific power attached to praying! Living life as a Christian without prayer is like walking onto a battlefield with no ammunition! When you pray, you are readying yourself for anything the enemy may try to throw at you!
The verse above tells us that when you give thanks and pray, worry becomes a thing of the past, and the peace of God that transcends all understanding will guard your heart regardless of the situations you may be facing. Take advantage of the potent power in prayer today!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
When I pray things change! I equip myself for any situation through the power of my prayers! As a result of my prayers, the peace of the Lord has consumed my life, in Jesus' Name! Amen.

Galatians 4:1 (KJV)
Now I say That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all.
There are certain truths in the Word that can easily pass you by if you don't walk in the reality of the royal DNA in you! According to today's verse, it's up to you as a Christian to make a choice: are you going to be an heir or a servant?
If you remain in a state where you don't know who you are, where you don't grow or walk in the promises of God concerning your life, you will be a child and live a life of servanthood.
When you live the life of an heir, you never lack anything because lack is not your inheritance as a child of God!
Make the decision to grow from childhood to heir-hood, and enjoy every promise that already belongs to you by right!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
The DNA of God is in me; therefore, I will never live the life of a servant. Riches are mine, hallelujah!

1 Corinthians 2:12 (KJV)
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
To live ordinarily is an insult to the life God desires you to have! As a child of God, you live far above the systems of this world; therefore, your actions must align with what God has called you to be! Reject the ordinary in your life, whether that be ordinary finances, ordinary happiness or ordinary health. The Bible says that all things have been freely given to you! His intention is for you to live above the turmoil of this temporary world and live a life of excellence, an EXTRAORDINARY life!
There is nothing you need that God has not already made available to you as a Christian. Through growing in the Word, you learn all God has given you. When you walk in the consciousness of your inheritance as a Christian, there will be no space for the ordinary to occupy in your life! Make the anointing of the Holy Spirit your dwelling every single day, growing in God's Word and see your life go from ordinary to extraordinary!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I REJECT AN ORDINARY LIFE. I am a supernatural being; therefore, I live a life of excellence. I am born of God and live according to His divine nature! Amen.

Proverbs 23:18 KJV)
For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.
In spiritual matters, we say faith is the mother of miracles, and expectation is the midwife. In other words, in order for your miracle to be delivered safely and assuredly, you need the midwife of expectation to help you do just that!
You see, when you expect the supernatural, it adds the super to your natural. It doesn’t matter whether your life is dry. It doesn't matter whether you've been fired from work. With expectation, the one with nothing in his hand is the same one God uses to change not only his life but those around him for their benefit, too. Wherever you go, expect great things today!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
As I start my day today, I am full of expectation that great things will happen. My miracle is no longer around the corner; it has arrived! I am coming back home with a testimony! Glory.

Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.
You are the light of the world! Light gives direction; just like light, your duty as a Christian is to give direction to those in the world on how life ought to be lived! You are the one to show them how to be successful and how to be light irrespective of darkness. Christ already played His part by obtaining salvation for all mankind through His vicarious death and glorious resurrection! Now, it’s your responsibility to live a luminous life and tell every nation of His saving power!
As a shining light, you dispel darkness wherever you go, meaning lack, sickness, and simply any bad thing have no place in your life or your family's lives! Let the Gospel fire burn perpetually in you and through you! You are God's very own representative on this Earth! Be an example through your speech and the way you conduct yourself. You are the light and hope of this world, a light that cannot be hidden!

Psalm 105:1 (KJV)
O give thanks unto the Lord; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
There is transformative power in your testimony! It is your sole responsibility to testify of the goodness of God in your life! The verse above tells us that we must proclaim the Name of God and make known to the nations what He has done for us. In other words, GO AND TELL SOMEBODY! Not every force of darkness knows who you are or who resides inside you. Therefore, the first thing you must do when you enter a new location is testify. When you testify, you send signals in the realm of the spirit that makes known to every creature that you are God’s child and His power is at work in you!
Through your transformative testimony, you encourage others, boosting their faith to receive their own miracle! The Bible tells us that by the power of our testimonies, we have overcome all things that try to rise against us. So remember, wherever you go, you have the power to transform your life through the power of your testimony!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I will testify wherever I go and tell the nations all God has done for me. I transform my life through the power of my testimony! When I testify, demons are paralyzed with fear. In this year, I will testify more than ever before! Agents of darkness, watch out!

Romans 1:16 (KJV)
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
Only the Good News of our Lord Jesus Christ can place the sinner into a position of glorious salvation and righteousness. There's no other way! It's only through actually telling people about the Gospel that the Righteousness of God can be unveiled and embraced. Contrary to common lies about the different ways to get to God, there are no other methods to gain Christ except someone is ministered to and salvation accepted.
This is where you come in. If you're still trying to figure out what you're called to do, here is a mandatory calling. You have received the mandate to take the Gospel to the ends of the Earth. It's a calling not for church leaders only; it's something you're to do with all boldness, faith, courage, and conviction. You must never be ashamed or apologetic about Christ and the message of the Gospel. Don't be ashamed of who you are in Him, and don't let others make you feel ashamed of what you believe.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ! This is my higher calling, and I walk in it wholeheartedly and with boldness! Amen.
