Bible verse: Deuteronomy 31:6
Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

Message
God is telling you that He will send His police escorts and armored vehicles with sirens to protect and guide your daily movements.
He has also made promises to be with you at all times, so that no matter what happens and no matter how dark the darkness might be or how turbulent the storm might be He will not let you down. He is always in control.

All you need to do is put your trust and confidence in God, live righteously, be content with what you have.
Never run or hide from any circumstances that posted as fear or as Goliath before you and never let it keep you from going forward; instead fearlessly and courageously confront it knowing fully that the Lord is with you and that problem is not bigger than God.

Prayer
Thank you Lord that You have renewed Your covenant of Moses and Joshua upon my life - bringing victory over my enemy and neither failing nor forsaking me.
Praise the Lord, my soul, and do not forget how kind he is

Oh everlasting Father, grant me the spirit to walk in that same faith that Joshua and his people were called to walk, boldly, without fear, in the strength of the Lord and with good courage in Jesus name.

Bible verse: 1 Corinthians 15:58
58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

Message
Unless one is firmly grounded in God's Word and led by His Spirit, one can easily be led astray and loose focus.
Your level of the knowledge of God's word will determine the level you can be carried away by those wolves in sheep's clothing who transformed themselves into the apostles of Christ.

Beloved, do not allow the circumstances of life or temptations or failures or financial setbacks blow you out of the water.
You are to be firm, unshaken and not easily discouraged in your Christian hopes, responsibilities and commitments.

Prayer
Dear Lord, do not permit me to grow weary or tired in my services to You, but to live a balanced life, steadfast and unmovable by disappointments and temptations in Jesus name.

Shew me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed: and know that my labour is not in vain in the Lord because thou, LORD hast holpen me and blessed me.

Bible verse: Isaiah 30:18
And therefore will the Lord wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the Lord is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.

Message
That the Lord may be gracious unto you, you must first get knowledge about Him by feeding on His Word, disallowing your soul to be feasting on the chaff of the world and instead of being vengeful, proud, critical and harsh be kind and forgiving.

God says He is the security of your hope, the custodian of your great future, your provision provider.
Don't bother yourself about what people think about you; rather be concerned only about what is on God's mind concerning you - plans to prosper you and not to harm you.

Therefore put your trust in Him and wait on Him for the appropriate time because those who make God alone their confidence will have comfort and blessed are they who wait for the Lord.

Prayer
Thank you Lord that You give me the confidence that when the threatened calamities should come upon me, or when I am going through a period of groaning or there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel, You are always there to comfort and open new doors for me.

Let me not be weary or become impatient of waiting on You oh Lord but to live a life with a glorious expectation in Jesus name.

Bible verse: Colossians 2:8
8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

Message
Lack of knowledge my people perished.
Knowledge is power and through readings you receive wisdom and knowledge.
Remember it is written in:
- Daniel 9:2 "I Daniel understood by books"
- Nehemiah 8:8 "So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly"
- Jeremiah 36:8 "And Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the words of the LORD".

Brethren, we need to learn by hearing, studying and meditating on the Scriptures.
If the word of God resides in you will be filled with the spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship.

Yes! you will be able to stand boldly against false doctrine, false philosophy and every satanic power and have control over your carnal senses.
No man will be able to rob you of the rich treasure of the Gospel, take away from you the truths and doctrines of Christ, strip you of your spiritual armour and divest you of your spiritual privileges and blessings.

Prayer
Oh everlasting Father, give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before the people: without falling victim of deceit and without putting my personal desires above Yours in Jesus name.

Guide me from been taken captive by philosophy of life and empty deceitful desires in Jesus name.

Bible verse: 1 John 4:1
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

Message
Brethren, the gospel is the power of God that can save you from every ungodliness, unrighteousness and false prophets because in it the righteousness of God is revealed.
Note that you can only try the spirit if you have the knowledge of the Word.
People who lack knowledge are bright-red, loudly-quacking sitting ducks for false prophets who are willfully ready to suppress the truth of God so that you may continue in your sins due to your ignorance, comfortable lifestyle, laziness,and/or your search for worldly things.

Beloved, you are to read and meditate on God's Word and constantly be upgrading your knowledge of God's word by studying the Scriptures and be not conformed to the world.

Do not only be reader of this "Morning Coffee" to say Amen and/or share it with others but ALSO meditate on the Word and allow the Holy Spirit to direct and lead you in ways you cannot see.

Prayer
Heavenly Father, do not allow me to be weary of continually shoring up my faith by constantly upgrading my knowledge of Your Word.
Grant me the spirit of discernment so as not to recklessly give to those false prophets power over my soul in Jesus name.

Bible verse: Romans 8:4-5
4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
5 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.

Message
Walking after the flesh is the inability to forsake worldly passions by allowing our carnal senses to have power over our spiritual mind.

To walk after the Spirit and be "approved unto God" you must separate yourself from things contrary to the law of God and the Gospel of Christ.
The Holy Spirit, if you allow him, will teach you to realize that no person or problem can defeat, distract or inhibit you from doing God's will and walking in righteousness except that you lean on your own knowledge and understandings and/or be blindfolded to understanding the spiritual truth.

Remember that if you are after the Spirit, our LORD shall renew your strength; you shall mount up with wings as eagles; shall run, and not be weary; and you shall walk, and not faint; disappointment or faint hearted shall be far from you and you will be counted among the blessed.

Prayer
I come to You oh Lord, incapable of being able to live a holy life myself and humbly ask that You would teach me to be holy and show me how You would have me life.

Cloth me Oh Lord, with the garment of courage and boldness to be able to deal with the truth and be committed to the kingdom of God.

Bible verse: Ecclesiastes 11:5
As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.

Message
Human beings are ignorant of many of the works of nature; how the bones grow in the womb, how God guides and keeps us alive overnight, how the sovereignly operates.
We can witness and/or feel some precious work of nature but we cannot predict or control its wonderful and/or devastating power.

Therefore you need to distinguish between those things about which you can do nothing of and those about which you can and commit yourself and all your affairs into the hands of the almighty Father who has the absolute control over all things and allow the Holy Spirit to instruct you in how to be a more discerning, wise and retentive learner of the essentials of God's will for your own good.

Prayer
Open my eyes oh Lord, to see what You would have to do in my life, unblock my ears so that I may hear Your still voice and give me a teachable spirit to lean all that You would teach me in Jesus name.

Bible verse: Micah 3:8
But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the LORD, and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin.

Message
Brethren, if you are really full of power by the spirit of the LORD or you are willing to be, your living life-style should be ear-marked with self-awareness, self-regulation, self-control, self-assessment, self-disciple, obedience, love, acting Christ-like while putting away pride, greed, bitterness and unforgiveness, hating covetousness, gossip, evil speaking.

Jesus walked in the spirit, was led by the Spirit, seek those things which are above, did all in the name of the Lord, was compassionate, obedient to God, forgiving, merciful, doing good and above all, relied wholly on His Father in heaven.
We should endeavor to step into the shoes of our Savior Jesus allowing the Holy Spirit to give us abundant fruit of the Word.

Prayer
Heavenly Father, open my spiritual mind to know and make good use of the gifts freely given to me for the growth of your kingdom, to realise, acknowledge and repent of my transgression, to delight myself always in you and with the boldness to act Christ like in Jesus name.

Bible verse: Isaiah 11:2
And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;

Message
The spirit of God is the spirit of illumination, of faith, of comfort, adoption, of love and of truth.
God is the primary reality and out of Him flows a set of values to grow closer towards holiness: wisdom and understanding, prayer and praise; knowledge and fear; charity and contrition; grace and desire; love and humility.

Receiving the spirit which is of God gives you the privilege and boldness to have good relationship with
the Father, to have the knowledge of God's promises for you, to rebuke the devil at any time in every circumstances and above all the authority to act Christ like and be able to do what Jesus did.

Prayer
I am thankful Lord for everything that You allow to cross my path especially for Your mighty power which is at work in me, transforming me and renewing my mind.

Dear precious Lord, there are marvelous things that I do not know, nor can I comprehend.
Let the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD rest upon me in Jesus mighty name.
