SPEED 🚄🚅

 Text : 1 King 18:41-46, Gen 26:12, 1 Sam 30:8-9

Divine speed explains a spiritual enablement and empowerment which energises us to accomplish what could take for instance 100 days in just one day!
This special grace gives man strength to outrun others, sweatlessly fulfil God’s mandate for his living and reaping bountifully the seed which has been sown. No matter what might have been the experiences in the previous months of toiling and labouring, I declare to us all that our new season of little efforts with great accomplishments has come in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.

In 1 King 18:41-46, Elijah the prophet of God experienced divine speed. He encouraged King Ahab to eat and drink after a long time of drought then he called on God for rain and the Lord answered. Elijah quickly requested King Ahab to go down with his chariot before the rain stopped him. Now King Ahab rode away and went to Jezreel but the bible says “the hand of the Lord came upon Elijah” and he girded up his loins and ran ahead of Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel. I pray that this hand of the Lord that was on Elijah the prophet will rest on us to outrun others in Christ name.

In Gen 26:12, Isaac had witnessed many years of tearful and strenuous plantings in the land without results, but God granted him speed and thereby he reaped a hundredfold blessing. In just one year he prospered and continued prospering until he became very prosperous. He outran all men in the land in resources. He became the envy of Abimelech the King and all the people of the land to the point that they asked if he could leave them as his prosperity could invariably overtake the whole land in a very short time. This will also be your portion in Jesus Name.
In just one day, Joseph graduated from been a prisoner to becoming the vice president of Egypt. Queen Esther on her part rose from obscurity to become the most respected first lady in Shushan. These feats were achieved via the power of divine speed. Esther had no parent to help her, but when God singled her for favour, she became filled with divine speed and her rising created envy in the camp of the enemy, but they could not stop her progress. For the reader of this blog I decree for your sake, God will cut off all protocols and accelerate your progress beyond your wildest imagination in Jesus name.

A story was told of a lady who waited patiently for a life partner. At age 38, all her mate had gotten married, and pressure were being mounted from all corners. But she was not moved. She eventually got married when she clocked 39, and within the first nine months became pregnant, and behold when it was time for delivery, she brought forth a set of twins. As if it was not enough, her next pregnancy brought forth another sets of twins, and she became a proud mother of children at age 44. God granted her divine speed and she accomplished in 5 years what others were not able to accomplish in their life time.

David’s household and his city had been taken captive by the Amalekites, in fact people spoke of stoning him because the souls of people were grieved to him. From 1 Sam 30:8-9; “So David inquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue this troop? Shall I overtake them?” And He answered him, “pursue, for you shall surely overtake them and without fail recover all.” From 1 Sam 30:18-19 “So David recovered all that the Amalekites had carried away, and David rescued his two wives. And nothing of theirs was lacking, either small or great, sons or daughters, spoil or anything which they had taken from them; David recovered all.” As many reading this message now, congratulations for you shall recover all in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.

For those who are feeling that this year is almost over and all hope is lost, have confidence in the Lord and He will surely grant you good speed .When God imparts on you his divine speed, you will outrun all your competitors and recover everything that you might have lost even within this year.

It is my sincere prayer for every reader of this blog to experience accelerated progress and undeniable advancements in Jesus name.

AMEN 

SÈXUAL SECRETS WOMEN THAT WANT TO SNATCH YOUR HUSBAND KNOW THAT YOU DON'T DO (MARRIED COUPLES ONLY)

Lots of women are losing their husbands to strange women out there and most women are yet to know what these men see in these women that make them get glued to them even though they know that these women are more expensive and most are full of sèxually transmitted dìseases.

Hi wives, you need to know the sèxual secrets of these faceless women, sorry they are better than you in the bed, you need to step up to match up with them and beat them in their dirty games. Take your time to read this and get your husband back, these are their secrets:

1) THEY UNDERSTAND THE SÈXUAL WÈAKNESS OF MEN: They understand that one of the weaknesses of most men is sèx and they make good use of this. Wives are careless about this, instead of using sèx to create intimacy with their husbands; they use it to create animosity, anger, and bitterness between them and their husbands.

WHAT TO DO: Use sèx as a tool of love to create intimacy in your marriage, don’t use s3x to destroy your marriage, use it to build it.

2) THEY KÌSS LIKE MAD: In a report, most married men reported that their wives hate kìssing; they said it is difficult to get a decent kìss from their wives. Strange women are experts in this area they use kìssing as a weapon.

WHAT TO DO: Don’t turn kìssing into wrestling in your marriage, stop being local. Kìss your husband even when he is not expecting it.

3) THEY USE KÌLLER UNDERWEAR: A man said he hates to see his wife in panties because according to him, she always looks like a wrestler. Lots of wives are like this, they are fond of wearing pants whose colours are different from their bras, looking like a rainbow, dirty pants, outdated underwear, a bra that looks like tarpaulin, wearing boxers that are meant for men, wearing knickers and tying of wrapper to bed. Strange women are creative in this regard they are fond of using neat, sexy panties and bras. They always balance colours under there.

WHAT TO DO: Wives wake up, fashion starts from under, not from head gear or rope sieve bag, the real fashion is looking sèxy when you undress before your husband.

4) THEY USE KÌLLER NIGHTIE: Strange women not only wear sexy underwear, but they also wear killer nighties. While wives dress to bed and look like a soldier in bed, strange women dress to capture the man even before getting to bed

WHAT TO DO: When you are going out dress up, when you are going to bed dress down. Dress to capture the imagination of your husband, and get a very sèxy, nasty nightie for your husband’s eyes only. Men are moved by what they see, let your husband she the angel in you

5) THEY SEE SÈX AS A SERIOUS BUSINESS: You see it as a chore, you see it as dirty, you even wish it is removed from marriage, it never crosses your mind. But these strange ladies, see sèx as a serious business and do everything to keep their clients and customers. They use all marketing strategies, branding, product, packaging, marketing, and advertisement.

WHAT TO DO: Begin to see sèx as a serious business, rebrand yourself, and repackage yourself because you are the real product.

6) THEY TREAT $£X AS FOOD OF MEN: Wives are fond of saying “Is it food?” What a foolish statement! It’s not food, it’s more than what the Bible says it is water (Proverbs 5:15-19). Strange women are aware of the fact that men see sex as food and they serve it hot and better

WHAT TO DO: Get into the fray, and treat it as the food of your husband. Serve it better than before, and never say, “Is it food?” again in your life, it is more than that

7) $£X IS IN THEIR MIND: Babies, house cleaning, cooking, and washing are in the minds of wives; sèx is never in their minds, they never think of it, but women put it in their minds and their body is ready no wonder they hardly look tired for it.

WHAT TO DO: At least two or three times a week, put sèx in your to-do list, put it in your mind, and see how your marriage turns out to be

😎 THEY PLAN FOR $£X: Strange women plan for sèx the way you plan for your cooking; they look forward to it and carry their catch along in their plans.

WHAT TO DO: Plan for sèx in your marriage; don’t make it your husband’s affairs to plan for sex in your marriage. Let it be part of your schedule.

9) THEY SET TABLE FOR $£X: Strange women do set table for great sex, soft music, blue light, candlelight, perfumed bed, velvet bed sheet, sexy outlook, and slippery fingers. Do you still wonder why men are running to them?

WHAT TO DO: Begin to set a table for sèx in your marriage, be creative, and surprise your husband with a sexy outlook when he arrives from work. Children are already in bed, you look “Smatching”, the whole house looks romantic, soft music, dinner with candlelight, Hug by the door and kiss on the lips. Who says your husband will not rush home tomorrow?

10) THEY ARE VERY ROMANTIC: Romance is a strange thing to some women, the away women don’t joke about it, they are experts in this. Whole lots of wives are romantically bankrupt but strange women are professional in it. Men love romantic women and strange women know this.

WHAT TO DO: become romantic, marriage is a love affair, don’t allow motherhood and wifehood to destroy your girlish instinct. Be romantic.

11) THEY FLlRT WITH THEIR MEN: Strange women are not only romantic, they are flirty. they give “come and do” eye contact, if you sit with them at a table they make sure their legs touch yours, and they put hands on men’s shoulders and touch men’s Legs as they discuss. They greet men with a good smile, they laugh excessively at men’s dry jokes. All these signals immoral men understand perfectly and they quickly go for them.

WORK TO DO: Get flïrty with your husband, hold his hands in public, place your head on him when on a bus, touch his legs as you talk, sit close to him and sure to make your body touch his own, hold him longer when hugging, he is your husband girl, get flirty with him.

If anybody snatched your husband after you might have read this, then it’s your fault.

From today start improving your $£x life don't come here to complain unless you have done this and it didn't work out. To all who disagree with this company because of $£x issues, kindly go to Court tomorrow, you will see the no.  of people getting divorced.

THE SUPERNATURAL

 Join us This Sunday 27th October 24. By 3PM.

In the story of creation in Genesis 1 and 2, God created our natural world that is contacted through the five senses (seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and touching).  The word “supernatural” means that which is “above, beyond, and far higher and greater than the natural.”  God is supernatural.  The Bible says of him:   

“To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever”

(1 Timothy 1:17). 

“From everlasting to everlasting, you are God,” (Psalm 46:1).   

“He who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, 16 who alone has immortality, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion.” (1 Timothy 6:16)  

The person whom we know as Jesus of Nazareth was “with God and was God” (John 1:1-3).  The Apostle Paul wrote of Jesus:  

 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. 17 And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. (Colossians 1:15-17)  

Through the body of Mary he became flesh and dwelt among us (John 1:14).  He perfectly reveals God because he came from the supernatural world and entered into our natural world.  The Bible says, “No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, he has made him known” (John 1:18).  Because Jesus is as much God as the Father and as much man as we are, he perfectly connects the supernatural and the natural worlds.  He is the God-Man, one person in two natures:  

For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, 20 and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross. (Colossians 1:18-20) 

In him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily. (2:9)

Jesus was resurrected in a glorified body that had both natural and supernatural qualities.   

Naturally, (1) his body was gone from the tomb, (2) he had flesh and bones, (3) he ate and drank, (4) he conversed with his disciples, and (5) he was seen and handled by them (Mark 16:6; Luke 24:36-43; I John 1:1-3).   

Supernaturally, (1) he appeared and disappeared, (2) he could change his appearance, (3) on occasion, he seemingly passed through locked doors, (4) he no longer had the beaten, whipped and weak appearance of a man who had been crucified, (5) he ascended into the clouds (Luke 24:16, 36, John 20:19, 26; Acts 1:9),  (6) God placed all things under him and gave him total dominion, power and authority (1 Corinthians 15:21-27), (7) he was standing by the right hand of God when he appeared to Stephen (Acts 7:55-56), (8) he spoke to Saul of Tarsus, who is later called Paul, from the heavenly world (Acts 9:3-6; 18:9-10), and (9) the supernatural, glorified Jesus appeared to the Apostle John (Revelation 1:13-16). 

The resurrection and ascension of Jesus in a glorified body means that he is “our man in heaven” who mediates and intercedes for us.  He understands what we are going through on this earth (I Timothy 2:5; Hebrews 4:14-16).  He hears and answers our prayers (1 John 3:21-22; 5:14-15).  He guards and guides his church so that “the gates of Hades will not prevail against it” (Matthew 16:19).  He is fully aware of our works and the spiritual health or sickness of his church (Revelation 2-3).  He will “be with us always” (Matthew 28:20) and will “never leave us or forsake us” (Hebrews 13:5).  He will come again bodily and resurrect us with a body like his and we will be together with him forever (1 Corinthians 15:20-49; 1 Thessalonians 4:14-18). 

Our only hope is in God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.  Fellowship with God totally satisfies now and forever.  This perfect fellowship with God is the source of all heavenly joy.

15 Traits of a Man you Should NOT Marry

Nature of a man

No matter how much we try, we can never ever change the nature of a man. So it’s best to never get involved with a maniac and save your own self. Our life partners play a major role in our personality as marriage is the most important decision of our lives. If you are married to a gem of a man, your life will surely change for the better; but if you are stuck with a psycho, you will eventually go mad with him.

Different types of men

With age and experience, one learns about different types of people. At a younger age, we are vulnerable and are not able to differentiate. It is harder to catch signs early in a relationship as potential husbands are trying to be at their best behaviour. One of the traits of a narcissist is that he acts very charming so watch out as you may be falling for the wrong one!

Charming bad boys make terrible husbands

Only naive and foolish girls look for naughty and bad boys as life partners. Such boys may pass for a fling or a friend but never a husband. You need someone reliable, someone who will be your shoulder when you’re down. Someone who is strong enough to carry your weight and be there for you in your hard times. Look out for signs of the following as you never ever want to be stuck in a relationship with them.

15 Traits of a man you should NOT marry

Here is a list of men to stay away from, when it comes to marriage:

 

1. Atheist or Agnostic

I am a strong believer of the fact that we get our values from religion and its teachings. A person who does not believe in God, can do anything he wants. I was watching the movie ‘Don’t breathe’ in Daewoo bus last week and there was a dialog in it ‘a person who does not believe in God can do anything he wants’. It is so true and therefore we should find out about his belief in God. He must have strong values if he is a good man.

2. Narcissist

A person who has an excessive admiration for himself. He thinks the world revolves around him and he can do and live however he wants. He has a false impression of himself which he loves to project to others. He acts very charming but has unstable emotions. A narcissist interrupts conversations and wants to be the center of attention always.

3. Psychopath 

A person suffering from chronic mental disorder with abnormal or violent social behavior. These people will never learn from their mistakes. They will not be able to control their anger and emotions and will get violent and abusive. They are cold-hearted and uncaring with shallow emotions who are not willing to take up responsibility. They’re selfish, violent and unable to plan for the future. In short, a perfect definition of a guy never to get married to.

4. Complex personality

Some people have an over-thinking disease where they constantly compare themselves to others. They are affected by inferiority complex and are worried sick about how people judge them. In reality they are the ones who judge. They are obsessed by materialistic worldly possessions and are in a race where they want more and more. Deep down they know their own flaws and they are badly affected by it. If they have a smaller house or car than others, they will stop meeting them and start hating them for what they have. It is very difficult to spend a lifetime with such maniacs.

5. Abusive 

There are many types of abuse. Its basically forcing someone to do anything that he/she doesn’t want to. It can be economical, sexual, physical, verbal, emotional or psychological.

6. Control freak

Some people only want their spouse/fiance to do as they say. They expect their partners to have no say or ideas about life. They want them to only agree to whatever they say. They will make their spouse wear, do, cook what they want only. They will treat their spouse as puppets and control all their actions. They will even go to the extent of checking their mobile phones to see what their partners are up to. In most cases they will wrongly accuse their partners of having affairs with others or of lying.

7. Materialistic

It is a mans responsibility to be the breadwinner of a household. In today’s world, too many men get involved with women only for their money. If you notice him getting interested in how much you earn and your savings or investments, it’s not a good sign. Asking your parents for money is even worse. These signs should be taken seriously. Marry a man who doesn’t have his eyes on your money.

8. Hatred for your family

Your family deserves all your love and respect but if your fiance/spouse gets offended every time you spend quality time with them, your alarm bells should be ringing. There is absolutely no reason why there should be hatred for your family. If a guy doesn’t like you to even speak to your family, there is definitely something wrong with him.

9. Discourages your interests

Rather than encouraging your partner’s hobbies and interests, your life partner doesn’t want you to be busy with your hobbies. Doesn’t let you get busy with things you love, whether that’s politics like Belinda Stronach, something artistic, a sport, or anything else.

10. Discourages socialising in your circles

Doesn’t want you to meet your friends/relatives. However, their social circles are an exception. You will still be made to meet their friends and relatives.

11. Selfish

Some people are born selfish. They choose the best for themselves and are just not willing to share the good things in life. Such people think the world only revolves around them. It is difficult to live with a man like that as marriage is based on sharing.

 

12. Baby of the family

Unfortunately many parents raise their sons as mama’s boys. They’re not taught to be a man and behave like one. A baby of the family will grow up to be a baby and not be ready to take up responsibilities on his shoulders. In fact he wants all the attention to himself. When he is sick, he wants you to only look after him but doesn’t care when you are ill.

13. Pessimistic 

Some people have a habit of only looking at the glass half empty. They are not raised to see the goodness in life. They have a negative aura around them and the places they live are very dark and dingy.

14. Bi-polar

Its a brain disorder which causes unusual shifts in mood, activity levels and energy in carrying out day to day tasks. There are many types of this disorder. In some cases a  person may feel very high and energetic and some may go into depression.

15. Mister Gutless

A wife needs a man who can protect her and stand up for her even when the whole world is against her. A gutless man will never stick up for his wife even when he knows she is right. He wants to be Mr. Goody good in front of the whole world especially his family and doesn’t have the guts to speak up for his wife even in the most trying times.

Conclusion

Good luck girls in finding the right man to marry. On a positive note, there are good men in the world who do not have any hangups and are genuine to the core. They’re stable, contented, relaxed and send happy vibes. They’re the ones you should be living your life with. They’re the ones who deserve all your love and care so save it for them. Never settle for those who exploit you or belittle you. All the best!

THE DIFFERENT STAGES OF MARRIAGE

 

1. THE AMAZEMENT STAGE: 

This is the "wow" stage. Lots of new things to discover with your spouse. The newness, the freshness is so amazing. Sleeping on the same bed, wearing the same attire, cooking for him, doing house chores with her, bathing together. Wearing your dazzling wedding ring everywhere, turning people's head at the newest couple around. Loads and lots of fun. Sexual exploration and excitement. Being in control of your kitchen, feeding him and lots more. It's the honeymoon stage and it's so so beautiful.

2. THE IRRITATION STAGE: 

This is when you begin to notice weaknesses you have overlooked or blissfully wish they go away but didn't. The repetition of such weaknesses begins to work on your nerves and you are getting irritated: he snores a lot, she is slow in the kitchen, she belches loudly, he screams unnecessarily, she won't bathe before coming to bed or shave, he spends many hours watching football and ignores you when you talk. "What's just wrong with this guy?" You think aloud, well it's part of marriage.

3. THE ANGER STAGE: 

This is when the repetition of such weaknesses gets on your nerves and you display your anger. The introverted partners stuffs it in and either keep malice, avoid you or stubbornly continue with the irritating habit. It's the stage you begin to wonder: "have I really married the wrong guy?" "Have I married the wrong woman?" No, you did not, you are simply going through a phase together.

4. THE RESOLUTION STAGE: 

When you both begin to face the reality of marriage and acknowledge your partner's weaknesses. You eventually realize anger and malice does not solve any problem and begins to find ways to deal with your differences, both of you begin to compromise here and there and adjust to each other.

5. THE ACCEPTANCE STAGE: 

When it dawned on you that some things are just part of your partner and may never change. You resigned from anger, abuse and quarrel and choose to accept them, lovingly adjust to them and enjoy them regardless of their weaknesses.

6. THE RESTFUL STAGE:

This is the stage you permanently accept them with all their strengths, weaknesses, short comings and flaws and love them unconditionally regardless of what they do. This is real love -agape, divine and true. You reconnect emotionally, spiritually and physically at a deeper level and enjoy honey moon again while building a lasting marriage regardless of the challenges you face.

Note : There is no perfect marriage. 

Every marriage goes through this stages. How you handle it will determine if you will come out bitter or better.

Always keep God at the centre of your home and you obey the word of God daily.

Nevertheless, do not be disappointed if you go through the unpleasant stages in marriage. It is a phase and will surely end.

Handle your marriage with wisdom and keep loving regardless of the challenges you face. That is what will make your marriage a heaven on earth experience.

Marry Well My Brother

 

You are not a rehabilitation center for women who were badly raised. It’s not your job to fix her, mold her, or teach her how to act like a grown woman. You are not her father, her therapist, or her savior. You need a wife—a partner who’s ready to stand beside you and build something real—not a project that you’re constantly trying to fix. You’re a man, not a social worker. If she wasn’t raised properly, if she’s coming into the relationship with chaos, disrespect, or childish behavior, you need to walk away.

Don't waste your time in marriage trying to please the sexual desires of a sex maniac who's veriginal cavity has been mercilessly patronised by toy peniss, electronic peniss and vibrators and the peniss of drug users who perform sex for name and not for fun. She will soon cheat on you because she is looking for a human being to give her what toys and electronics gives her.

You won't impress her till you die. Such idiots only appreciate profits from men and not efforts of genuine lovers.

Let’s get real—if her own father couldn’t raise her right, what makes you think you can? If the man who brought her into this world, who had years to shape and guide her, couldn’t get the job done, trust me, you’re not going to succeed where he failed. It’s not on you to correct years of bad behavior, laziness, entitlement, or disrespect. You’ve got your own life to build, your own mission to focus on. You don’t have time to parent a grown woman.

Stop taking on women who come with baggage and issues they refuse to address. If she’s disrespectful, ungrateful, or constantly testing your patience, she’s not someone you should be dealing with. You need peace in your life, not chaos. Your home should be a place where you recharge, where you build, where you focus on your goals—not a battleground where you’re constantly having to “fix” someone else’s problems. You can’t fix her, and it’s not your job to.

There’s a difference between supporting a woman and raising her. A woman who’s ready to be your wife will already have the basics in place: self-respect, discipline, emotional maturity, and a sense of responsibility. If she’s lacking those things, she’s not ready to be a wife—she’s still trying to figure herself out. That’s not your burden to bear. You’re not her father. You shouldn’t have to teach her how to respect you, how to communicate, or how to be a decent human being. That’s a bare minimum expectation. Such fools eat for cravings and  pleasure and not for healthy living.

And let’s be clear—you can’t change her. No amount of patience, love, or effort on your part is going to transform her into the woman you want her to be. She is who she is. You can either accept that or walk away. But don’t waste your life thinking you can reshape a broken foundation. If she didn’t come to you already prepared to be a wife, she’s not your responsibility to fix. It’s not your job to be her teacher or her guide through life. You want a wife, not a project.

Stop thinking you can “save” her from her own bad habits, upbringing, or toxic behavior. That’s a fantasy, not reality. Real men don’t waste time trying to mold someone into something they’re not. You want a woman who is already equipped to be your partner—not someone who you have to constantly correct, explain things to, or drag along through life. If she’s not wife material, she’s not worth your time.

If she’s been disrespectful, lazy, or spoiled her whole life, what makes you think she’s going to change for you? A woman raised with bad habits is going to bring those habits into your relationship, and you’ll spend every day fighting against her nature. That’s not a marriage—that’s a burden. You deserve better than that. Find a woman who already has the qualities you want, not someone who’s a long-term project that’s going to drain your energy.

You’re a man on a mission, and you don’t have time to babysit someone who wasn’t raised properly. You need a woman who can support your grind, not slow it down. If she’s bringing nothing but problems into your life, it’s time to let her go. You can’t fix what’s broken inside her, and it’s not your job to.

Brother, you deserve to be happy.

You deserve rest.

You deserve peace.

Don't condemn yourself into the hands of a woman that is not worthy of you!!

Your life will be messed up if you try that nonsense.

You will soon start raising children after marriage, don't waste no time raising a foolish woman. It will distract you from your God ordained assignment of raising children.

The Bloodline Pattern

Introduction

In introducing my message, let’s consider the example of a child enrolled in a good school.  Usually much good is expected of such a child especially in the area of academics. However it remains the child’s responsibility to work hard with determination in order to achieve the desired goals. The child, such a well performing school is charged with the responsibility of studying and keeping all school rules besides cooperating with the teachers especially in the area of study.  But if they embrace lethargy and so give no attention to hard and smart work, no matter how well the school is performing and the brilliance of the teachers, one thing is sure, the child will fail their exams. The same is also true with our Christian life. As a Christian you have your role to play in as far as the end results of your Christian walk is concerned, the grace of God notwithstanding. No wonder Paul in his epistle to the Church in Philippi says “…work out your salvation with fear and trembling, (Phil 2:12 NIV).

For every one of us in this side of life, there is a pattern of character or traits in our bloodline. These could be good or evil traits. Thus  it is necessary for Christians after salvation to do detailed research on their roots and investigate the background of their genealogy. Almost always you will find out that, there is a particular pattern (or patterns) of event or happenings in your bloodline which in most cases, especially for many African are the results of an evil background. It could be so because our forefathers made idols and worshiped them making satanic covenants with the kingdom of darkness. These covenants, with or without your knowledge hinder your success and blessings as a child of God in one way or another even after your salvation. It is therefore of paramount importance that you research and unearth these negative covenants, traits or bloodline patterns, break them in the name of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ for your ultimate breakthrough in life. This is why the Psalmist poses this question, “If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” (Psalms 11:3)

In 1 Chronicles 4:9, Jabez whose foundations due to a mother’s circumstances and input were not right realized it, rose up to the occasion and changed his destiny in God for the better, for himself and his posterity. ⁹Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, "I gave birth to him in pain." ¹⁰Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, "Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain." And God granted his request. (1 Chronicles 4:9-10 NIV)

In many of our African communities, children ‘inherit’ names from parents, uncles, aunties and so on. It is crucial that you get down and investigate the character of the person the child (or even you are) named after, because their bloodline patterns are easily transferred through the blood by demonic habitation and possession. You need to do a research to establish the kind of person one is named after because say if he or she was a witch it is most probable that their traits through covenants will flow into the child or the person they are named after.   

Let us look at some bloodline patterns in the scripture and their effect.

1. THE SPIRIT OF DECEPTION 

1.       Abraham

In Genesis 12:10, we learn that there was famine in the land of Canaan and so Abram who then was living in Canaan went down to Egypt to escape the famine. In the bloodline of Abram, was the trait of the attraction to beautiful women. The Bible records that Sarai, Abram’s wife was beautiful and therefore Abram fearing that the Egyptians would kill him and spare her if they learnt that she was his wife, conspired and lied to the Egyptians that Sarai was not Abram’s wife but his sister.

2.     Isaac

Since this was a bloodline issues, Isaac too in Genesis 26:7 “⁷When the men of  (Gerar) asked him about his wife, he said, "She is my sister," because he was afraid to say, "She is my wife." He thought, "The men of this place might kill me on account of Rebekah, because she is beautiful."  Here again we see a replication of what Abram did by his own son Isaac. There was no need to lie since the people of Gerar had no ill intentions against him as was the case with his father Abram in Egypt. Isaac lied because of a bloodline issue.  

3.     Jacob

Jacob was the son of Isaac and a grandson of Abraham. He too lied to his father Isaac that he was Esau his elder brother. “18 He (Jacob) went to his father (Isaac) and said, "My father." "Yes, my son," he answered. "Who is it?" 19 Jacob said to his father, "I am Esau your firstborn. I have done as you told me. Please sit up and eat some of my game so that you may give me your blessing."  (Gen 27:18-19 NIV). The root cause of the lie here is not with Jacob but his grandfather Abram.

4.     Rebecca

The blood DNA of Rebecca Isaac’s wife, a daughter to Bethuel was also a blood of deception.  The Bible records that Isaac loved Esau and Rebekah loved Jacob and when Isaac was about to die, he called Esau so that he could bless him. Rebekah overheard, schemed and caused Jacob to steal Esau’s blessings from the father.    

5.           Laban

Due to the bloodline of deception Laban also deceived Jacob, “²⁵ When morning came, there was Leah! So Jacob said to Laban, "What is this you have done to me? I served you for Rachel, didn't I? Why have you deceived me?" (Genesis 29:25 NIV). What Jacob did to his brother was  this time round done to him. The problem did not begin with him but at the root of the family tree and was simply being propagated down the generation, through the bloodline.  

6.     David and Abraham

 “34 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips. (Psalms 89:34 KJV). David is from the lineage of Abraham who was in a covenant relationship with God. No wonder sometimes David could sin against the Lord but when God remembered the covenant He had with Abraham He would have mercy on David on the basis of that covenant. This covenant was to transcend from Abraham through all his generations. The same case applies to covenants made in the kingdom of darkness, they also transcend down the generations. But having received Jesus Christ in your life, and having done an investigation of your genealogy, you  need to boldly stand in prayer and confess the related sins, denounce the covenants, break them and cast away all the evil covenants that were entered into by people before you and appropriate the New Covenant of God on your life so that it may be well with you and the generations after you.

Having looked at the bloodline pattern of deception, let’s look at another pattern in the Abrahamic genealogy.  

2. THE FAILURE OF THE FIRSTBORNS

The first born of Abraham, Ishmael never succeeded just like Isaac’s firstborn Esau. Reuben, Jacob’s son also never succeeded save Joseph. Joseph’s firstborn; Manasseh also followed suit and never succeeded. The pattern continued because when we come to Jesse, his firstborn; Eliab did not succeed; only the lastborn, David did. David’s firstborn Amnon also did not succeed but instead it is  Solomon a younger son who succeeded.

It was not David who was to become a King but Judah but since the pattern of their bloodline was that firstborns never succeeded but the younger, David become the first King through Judah instead.  

²No one born of a forbidden marriage nor any of his descendants may enter the assembly of the LORD, even down to the tenth generation. (Deuteronomy 23:2NIV).

What Judah did with Tamar was an abomination in Israel. ²⁷And it came to pass in the time of her travail, that, behold, twins were in her womb. ²⁸And it came to pass, when she travailed, that the one put out his hand: and the midwife took and bound upon his hand a scarlet thread, saying, This came out first, ²⁹And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold, his brother came out: and she said, How hast thou broken forth? This breach be upon thee: therefore his name was called Pharez. ³⁰And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his hand: and his name was called Zarah. (Gen 38:27-30KJV).

Some children are born against the expectations of their parents.  Say for instance and especially in our African context, where a couple gives birth to girls only but with the hope of one day getting a boy. When a girl is born again, (against the parents’ expectations ) that child’s behavior takes  on that of the expected opposite sex.

From Deuteronomy 23:2, we learn that an illegitimate birth will never enter into God’s assembly up till the tenth generation. From the scripture Genesis 38:27, Pharez was born through an illegitimate birth between Tamar and her father in law Judah.  “³And Judas begat Phares₁ and Zara of Thames; and Phares begat Esrom₂; and Esrom begat Aram₃; ⁴And Aram begat Aminadab₄; and Aminadab begat Naasson₅; and Naasson begat Salmon₆; ⁵And Salmon begat Booz₇ of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed₈ of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse₉; ⁶And Jesse begat David₁₀ the king; and David the king begat Solomon”  (Mathew 1:2-6 KJV). It is after the tenth generation that we find the Kings coming up, in Judah’s lineage.

These bloodline issues also affect our communities, for instance you may find that in a family no man marries a wife and lives with her for more than ten years, or on the other hand a girl can never be married before first giving birth at home and so on. In such situations it is not the victims’ fault ‘perse’ because; if you study carefully you will discover that it is a bloodline issue.

Drawing from the above pattern, you too as Christian need to identify the impurity in your blood line and deal with the inherent satanic covenants. Or else you will continue to suffer their consequences even though you are born again.  I prophesy in you life in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ Lord and saviour that any consequences you may be suffering as result of the miss deeds of your ancestors will be annulled. Every evil covenant that was entered into either willingly or unknowingly must be broken by someone who understands it and stands in the gap.  It is until you personally stand and deal with your negative bloodline pattern that it can be broken. It doesn’t matter what prayers are made on your behalf. Breaking bloodline patterns require your personal action and involvement.

That is why for you as a born again Christian, when prayer meetings are announced, seize the opportunity, attend and pray intently because it is your prayers which will set you free from the operation of the evil covenants in your bloodline. Confess the sins in prayer and create your divine destiny by appropriating the word of God upon your life in prayer. Decree Gods word for you over your life and your descendants. “And he said, “Your name shall no longer be Jacob, but Israel for you have striven with God and with men and have prevailed” (Genesis 32:28)

I prophesy to whatever negative thing that is operating in your bloodline in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ to cease. Today  revoke any evil covenants that your forefathers made, by the power and authority in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. You and the fruit of your womb are set free---Amen! 

You could be suffering in your Christian life today because of the wrong foundation you  inherited through the pattern in your bloodline. But since you are now born again, you have the power to change your destiny and that of your posterity. Reject, refuse and denounce the suffering of seed of your womb because of the consequences of the evil covenants of your forefathers in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Realize your position, arise and take your stand and claim what is yours. Amen!
