The Boldness of Righteousness
Child of God, you are the righteous, you are as bold as the lion. You are courageous, confident, fierce in spirit, not easily intimidated, in-charge, in control, strong (in the power of the Holy Ghost).

Contrary to the above dictionary definition of fight, Ephesians 6:12 tells us that as Christians we are in no physical combat with any human, rather we are in a spiritual warfare.
Anyone who does not know how to love, does not know God; does not look like God, is not identifying with God! Because God is ALL Love. God is Love and Love is of God.
My youngest daughter communicates very clearly; a lot of people say this about her. Some weeks ago, we were in the kitchen together when I noticed from the corner of my eyes that she was rubbing her eyes somewhat profusely. Just as I was about to turn and ask her to stop, she said; ‘mummy, I just had a vision- a someone was standing behind you.’ Ordinarily I would have panicked, but I just looked at her in smiles and responded he’s my angel’. I believe the Father opened her eyes to see this as a confirmation of Psalm 34:7.
Friends, Jesus said it is more BLESSED to GIVE than to receive, and He exemplified it by the gift of Himself. There is a Blessing in Giving. Let’s be sure to give to the right place, the right people, the right time and with the right motive. I personally believe that the primary motivation to give should be love; that’s what motivated God to give His best (John 3:16). Jesus also knew that if He didn’t give of Himself, if He preserved His life, not many other sons would be born to God (John 12:24-25). So He gave Himself freely so that you and I could become sons of God (Mark 10:45, Hebrews 2:10). The Bible records that there is no greater Expression of Love than what Jesus did (John 16:13).
Question: Did Jesus have any needs? That’s an interesting question wouldn’t you say? Jesus was God’s Son, the firstborn among us all, so did He have needs?
Below I share 4 ways we see Jesus meet Needs from the gospels.
Do you know that YOU can initiate a miracle? ?First, what is a miracle?
A miracle is a supernatural intervention in the natural course of an event(s).
we can initiate the miracle of provision and abundant supply if we follow and act on scripture.
Now, if we are joint heirs with Christ and Christ is heir over All Things, then we are also heir over all that the Father has. We share equally in Christ’ inheritance. Halleluyah! We are entitled to God’s money, God’s property, indeed everything that the father has is ours too.
O’ yes, poverty is a part of the curse. And it was overcome through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. You are as delivered from poverty as you are delivered from sin. You are as delivered from sickness as you are delivered from sin. Halleluyah! If you say you are saved, then know also that you are healed and rich.
A scale of preference is simply a list of items prepared for purchase and arranged in order of priority or importance. In Matthew 6:25-32, Jesus notes that the unbeliever (pagan) prioritizes his needs above God. So if an unbeliever were to prepare a scale of preference, his needs for food, shelter, clothing, etc would top the list. However, in Matthew 6:31-34 Jesus admonishes us (His followers) to put God first on our list.
