JUICY JULY 2024
THEME: MADE BATTLE-FIT
DATE: 25/07/2024
TOPIC: KILLING THE CANCER OF SIN
TEXT: PSALM 51
BIBLE STUDY: MATTHEW 22
This is the first day of the last week of Juicy July 2024. Oh what a privilege to still be here! I know there are some whose strength has waned. I know there are some who couldn’t push to this point. God understands this and that is why His Word says ‘They that WAIT … .shall renew their strength!!’
Imagine a child that had stayed with his mother outside all day as she turned fufu. She helped run a few errands and stayed so close. However, the smoke was too much for her. The fufu took forever to cook, so she decided to sneak away as the mother got carried away.
‘I cannot come and die’ She thought to herself.
The mom called loudly over and over again: ‘Bose! Bose o! Boseeeee!’ but she was nowhere to be found. And that was the time the mom needed her most.
Then, her younger sister, Mola came around and started to help. She helped to cut the okros and grate the peppers. She also washed the cook pot.
‘Bose! Bose!’ The mom still tried to call but Bose had slept off inside as she waited for forever to receive the invitation to the compound ‘table’ for the dinner.
‘Mola, open that calabash. Take that extra fufu. I kept it for Bose but she seems to have slept off’
‘I wrapped a piece of fish in that banana leaf also. Eat up, my daughter’
Hmmmm the Bible says ‘He that shall ENDURE to the end shall be saved.’
Endure means that it won’t be easy on the flesh. It means the flesh will kick against the spirit over and over again. But if you look him in the eye and say ‘Hey Devil, to Hell with you, that’s your abode! And to Heaven with me!’, you will be saved!
May the Lord bestow upon you and me this last week, greater blessings than we have ever received in all our years of service to the Lord in Jesus Name. Amen.
And look at how He is starting with us this last week- destroying our enemy, sin! So that our lives can start to be meaningful! Oh glory! As we remove ths cancer today, may we start to enjoy peace and health in our lives than ever before in Jesus Name. Amnen.
TESTIMONY HIGHLIGHT
Let us read through these testimonies before we start. May your own testimony also arrive speedily and gloriously to the Glory of the Lord alone in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
TESTIMONY 1: God is good, He answered another request. In fact I just realised it this evening. Someone had requested to be my apprentice and the sound of that was a beckon of hope for me financially and to expand my business. The whole thing has been silent for a while and I had already given up on it but I pen it down as one of my juicy July request and surprisingly, I got a message from the person today asking ro starr soon. I believe God is at work and I thank Him for answering my prayers.
TESTIMONY 2: I really want to appreciate God for this year’s Juicy July. During the first week of the prayers, I called forth my financial provision and God did. He removed every delay and blessed me abundantly. Another miracle took place this afternoon (19072024). I had to make use of my card in withdrawing money. After queuing and getting to my turn, the machine keep rejecting my card, me cef no gree for am.I cleaned it with my clothes, hair, and kept waiting and trying to no avail. The Spirit of God then asked me to speak the word to my ATM. Silently there, I prayed, spoke the word and plead the blood of Jesus. Satan wanted to bring doubt but I resisted and tried it in faith again. It worked,🤸🥳 I was able to withdraw my money finally.
TESTIMONY 3: Last year’s Juicy July was my first one-month marathon prayer and fasting. I was in my first trimester and still breastfeeding my toddler at that period. I was wondering how I’m going to fast all through the month, God strengthened me and I was able to go through. That’s my first testimony of breakthrough.
Part of my requests was that God should make my baby who just concluded exclusive breastfeeding to start eating normal food without me giving her multivitamin as advised by people; God answered the prayer. Also, I wanted God to choose an apartment for my family and move us there by the following month and at that time, we had no savings, nothing. God miraculously provided a very good apartment and funded the money that was three times our previous rent.
For my pregnancy, I prayed for unusual strength and ease all through the pregnancy and to God be the glory, I never fell sick all through. I also got a scholarship to read my dream course.
Fast-forward to this year’s Juicy July, it seems that since last year, a spirit of recreation entered me and made me very disrespectful to my husband. I was concerned about this attitude and pinned it on my pregnancy/postpartum, I wrote it as one of my prayer request and to the glory of God, God has been working on me. Yesternight, my husband told me I’m becoming more attractive, not just physically but in terms of my inner beauty that he noticed for a while now, I don’t talk to him anyhow. Praise God. Another testimony is that before this Juicy July started, we don’t have family devotions. I don’t think we’ve done family devotions up to 6 times this year which is my fault cause I usually dose at that time. However, I told my husband that we need to get back to it and to the glory of God, we’ve been consistent. Praise God. (Side Talks: I am extremely so blessed by this testimony. It gives me the chills from the inside out. Oh, thank You Lord. May it be a lasting change to the glory of the Lord. Amen.)
TESTIMONY 4: I want to testify of the two prayer requests God answered from last year’s juicy July prayer requests. 1. We were supposed to pay our house rent in September last year. But as of July last year, we had only half of the money. I was worried. I included it in my prayer request. I told God to send the remaining balance to us before September last year. God did. He gave us the money to complete the payment in August last year to the glory of God.
2. I asked God for a new phone in my last year’s juicy July prayer requests. My old phone was giving me a lot of concern. It had limited storage which made it difficult for me to do a lot of work. To the glory of God, this January God gave my husband money and he used part of the money to get a quality phone for me.
3. I want to thank God for his divine provision yesterday. God used someone to bless me financially yesterday. I have come to return all the glory to God for he alone has done all these for me.
PRAYER
Praise the Lord for the testimonies. Ask the Lord to take all the glory for them. Ask that the Lord will glorify Himself the more in the lives of the testifiers. And that the Lord will give everyone heartily participating in the Juicy July Prayer programme great testimonies to the glory of His Name. Ask for your own testimonies also.
INTRODUCTION
Immediately someone is diagnosed with cancer, it is more like a death-sentence! Prayers start in earnest, solicitation for intercession starts immediately. Treatment commences at any cost- let me just kill this thing before it kills me!
However, we do not see sin this way! We sometimes probably think that sin is our second nature, that we cannot not sin! Why? Who made that rule? He who made us from the beginning never made us with this evil- the enemy had done this!
So, why should we continue in sin while speaking in tongues and ask that grace should abound? It is not possible!
There are certain sins we will not commit even if they want to throw us into the fire. Some of us know that no matter what we must not commit adultery for instance. We know that we must not be involved in forgery! Even if knife is put to our necks, we cannot lie! But, there is one particular sin that holds so closely to our heart- that one that wants to finish us up! That one that followed Moses to the extent that he missed the earthly promised land and almost missed it nto the eternal promised land. It is called the besetting sin!
This guy holds on to our legs and says we are together, we must die together and you just let him? Just as you would do if a terrible disease threatens your existence, you should do much more when you see a sin or two or even more regularly, consistently at work in your life.
‘Well, I am a choleric, so that is why I get so anger that easily. It is my naturen and I know God understands’
‘Well, I just myu envy people that others celebrate more than me. It is my weakness and the Lord understands it’
‘Lust? Well, that is like my second identity. Even if I am sleeping, lust is still at work in me. Noone really can be saved from this thing, you know?’
‘White lie is my own but I don’t think it is a sin since I told the sin so that someone else will not be in trouble. I know God understands’
You keep making excuses for sins? That is why it keeps having dominion over you, sin!
You are to deal with it vehemently!
The Lord says we should resist it even to the shedding of our blood!
Have you ever tried resisting a sin so much that you broke out sweat as you combat it, talk less of shedding blood?
We secretly love and enjhoy the fleeting pleasures of sins, yet we want to be conquerors in life’s battles. It is not possible, my lovely sisters!
Sin is a cancer, let us treat it as such!
If you realize a very terrible wickedness in your heart as you deal with your ‘stubborn’ child, it is a sin that you should cry out to the Lord for deliverance from!
If you are very haughty, unsubmissive, dismissive of your husband in public and in private, how can you even do that and stll pray the next minute? To which God? You are in sin!
You have just finished destroying the reputation of someone to another person and you end your ‘gossip’ with ‘May God just help us all’, What? Sis, you are condoning cancer?
The cancer you do not kill will grow! The cancer you do not kill will kill you!
Let us look indepthly at this subject matter today as one of our dear sisters shed more light on it. Be blessed.
KILLING THE CANCER OF SIN
Sometimes we can pray and come out feeling drier than we were before the prayer. Not because we didn’t have faith in God’s ability to hear and answer but because the real issue that matters most in His Presence has not been dealt with- Sin.
Isaiah 59:1-2 says ‘God will not hear us or lift His hands to deliver us because our sins has caused Him to hide His face and has blocked His ears from hearing us.
The Psalmist also said that God will not hear if iniquity is regarded in the praying person’s heart (Ps. 66:18).
Sin is not the only challenge but more importantly what it does is it keeps us from accessing God’s presence and from experiencing the ultimate joy that comes from the Lord’s Presence. Hence, we miss out on the Strength that comes from His Joy!
Nehemiah says that His Joy is his strength (Neh. 8:10). When we lack strength, then with what do we fight?
Sin is like cancer to the believer’s body. It kills and deadens the cells of God’s DNA in us. It is such a terrible disease in the believer’s body such that it totally corrodes the whole armor of God.
First, it loosens up the belt of truth, it weakens the breastplate of righteousness, it eats up the shoes of peace for the Gospel, it rusts up the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation is no longer firm on the head, then the sword of the Sprit, we lose it or it is blunt in the hands.
Living in sin or storing up iniquities in the heart opens us up to the enemy’s attack at the battle field. We become so vulnerable for we have no weapon of war!
We are defenseless as we cannot wade off the enemy’s attacks when they come straight at us. As such, when we go into His Presence, to receive strength, we just don’t look like Him, so He hides His face.
The life of David, the man after God’s own heart, is one of the most enviable God-man relationships in the Bible. All of his Psalms reflects a man who carried God’s presence with him wherever he was. He was always communing with God. His exile from Israel, from access to the Tabernacle, did not hinder his relationship with God. But, this Psalm 51 stands out a lot amongst all his Psalms.
He wrote this Psalm after God pointed out his sin to him. He killed Bathsheba’s husband and took her to wife, to cover their sin of adultery. He forgot that God’s eyes see all and knows all. Just like Samson, he didn’t know strength to fight had left him. He thought he was still in sync. His source of strength to fight the battles of the throne and the wars of his life had left him.
When God graciously wrote him a ‘letter’ through Prophet Nathan’s prophesy, he knew he had messed up badly and lost God’s favor and strength. He had to run back to Him, like the helpless man he was, to call Him back into his life- a show of true repentance.
In verses 7 and 8, he called for God to wash him, make him clean and whole again. Specifically in verse 8, he recognized that he no longer had joy and gladness, thus, his bones were broken.
A broken bone is one that has got all strength sapped out of it. It is one that has no life to fight battles nor strength to continue at the battle field. It has become the easiest of prey to be devoured by the enemy.
You see the importance of the joy of the Lord while you are fighting or preparing for battle?
It is the tap that releases strength. When Paul says he can do all things through Christ who strengthen him, what he meant by extension if you follow through that entire Philippians 4 is that rejoicing/joy (vs 4) is crucial to not being anxious (vs 6), to experiencing peace (vs 7), to thinking right thoughts and doing right (vs 8-9), to sufficiently be content and be filled with rejoicing in plenty and want (10-12), hence joy through having Christ is what brings strength.
So, if you and I lack the joy of the Lord or we cannot see ourselves rejoicing in Christ even in the battle field, then we should know our strength is absent. A primary source of that many times could be sin/iniquity.
Sin and iniquities in the simplest way may be differentiated by David’s psalm 24:3-4. He asks a question: ‘Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? Or who shall stand in His holy place? He that hath clean hands (no sin) and a pure heart (no iniquities)…’
Sins, those acts of unrighteousness, prevent us from having clean hands and the iniquities of the heart like greed, pride, idolatry, covetousness, envy/jealousy (sin nonetheless) prevents us from having pure heart.
For this reason, we cannot go into God’s presence, we cannot acquire joy, neither can we get strength needed to be battle fit. In Psalm 51:9, David pleaded that God should not hide His face from him but that all his sins and iniquity be blotted out (vs 5).
The solution David proposed is that ‘create in me a clean heart, O God! And renew a right spirit within me’ (vs 10).
We cannot go to fight a battle that God will not fight through us because of the cancer of sin in our body, in our heart.
We cannot afford it for we will be devoured!
We need clean hearts, we need a renewed spirit to be battle-fit!
We may be quick to dismiss the need for this but taking a quick look at Psalm 139:23-24, David also prayed ‘Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting’.
We never know we are capable of disobedience, rebellion, bitterness, malice, wrathful anger, masturbation, fornication, greed, gluttony, gossip, idolatry, lust, worldliness until the Spirit, who searches all things reveals them to us.
Sisters, there is nothing like once saved, forever saved!
That is a deception from the pit of hell for believers to remain trapped under the weight and burden of sin that Jesus bled to save them from and be driven by the evil taskmaster, Satan.
We never can know the depth of evil the flesh can lead us to unless we search our hearts with the light of His Word, by His Spirit. .
David would never have imagined that he could commit adultery, commit murder, tell series of lies, misuse/abuse his God-given authority. A man after God’s own heart? No one is exempt from the potential of such gravity of evil of sin for we still dwell in this sinful bodies.
David’s prayer continues in verse 11 as He asks that he be not cast out, sent away from God’s presence. Do you know what God’s presence means to David?
In psalm 27:4, he says one thing he longs for the most and that he will seek for is that he dwells in God’s presence all the days of his life! Beholding the beauty of God’s holiness, enquiring in His temple.
You see why he couldn’t afford to be sent out of that place?
But that is what sin tries to do and actually does it when allowed. It pushes us out of God’s Presence, out of the place where we acquire strength for this pilgrim journey.
He continues in vs 11 by saying ‘and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me’.
We cannot continue to follow the Lord if the Holy Spirit leaves us. it is He that generates this joy within us and gives us strength.
But the presence of sin in a believer’s life is so powerful that it can make the Spirit leave.
Remember Samson again? The Spirit left him, power left him, and he could not defeat his enemies because he let himself off, completely unarmed, on Delilah’s laps.
That is the effect of sin!
David’s final request from repentance was for the joy of God’s salvation be restored unto him coupled with a right spirit (vs 12).
He understood that the joy from the Lord is the strength he needed to continue to pursue God fervently; to stay in His presence all the days of His life.
Thanks to God that we do have an escape route through Jesus. We can be free from sin, from a life that indulges in iniquity when we expose ourselves to God’s Presence.
The longer we tarry in His presence, the longer the radiation of His holiness, the fire of His glory kills off the roots of cancerous sin.
The reason Paul could come forth to say all the things he said through the various letters in the Bible is because he continuously tarried in God’s presence, exposing himself to God’s holiness and all his sin of self-righteousness and all else in between was gradually transformed such that towards the end of his life, he could confidently say that he had fought the good fight of faith.
We learn absolute dependence on God when we stay in His presence. Jesus lived a sinless life on earth as a Man because He was One with His Father. He was One because He never left God’s Presence.
Everywhere He went, He went with His Father’s Presence. Jesus our Lord was absolutely dependent on the Holy Spirit daily to do the Father’s work. This dependence guided Him as a Man to do the will of God without sin.
What does this say to us? Living sinlessly, righteously, should be the goal of every follower of Christ. However, the reason we all fail at it so often is because we strive to do it by human wisdom and not by the power of God (1 Cor. 2:5). .
We work out our salvation standing on the wisdom of man and not relying on the Power of the Holy Spirit per time.
We can’t tap into the Power of God if we do not appear before Him. But another mistake we all often make is that we are so eager to just fill up on God’s presence like a car at a gas station and off we go.
God’s expectation however is that we are simply planted in His courts like a palm tree, tapping from Him as the Source for our daily growth and our Ease to shed off weights that besets us.
When we are not self-conscious but God-conscious and aware, living righteously becomes our default DNA. This is because we behold Him, His glory with an open face in a glass and we are being transformed into the same glorious image by the Spirit of the Lord (2 Cor. 3:18).
Beloved, let’s expose ourselves to His glorious and holy Presence to rid ourselves of sin. The longer we tarry, the more engulfed we are by His holiness till we become like Him.
ROUNDING OFF
My dear sisters, we are not without hope! We can be free! We just need to hate that sin so much and stop making excuses for it. We are now children of God and sin shall not REIGN in our mortal bodies! Only the Spirit of the Lord is what we should allow to reign! Don’t allow cancer, only permit good health! Go on the operating table right now, sis and ask the Lord ‘Daddy, take away this cancer! Remove this cancer! Kill it!’. If you hate it enough, before you know it, it is gone!
I have had areas of my life where the Devil sought dominance against me which I cannot find around my life anymore! Oh, I tell you the truth! And here are a few things that I always did:
- I did a lot of self examinations. In fact, the things other people will excuse, I cannot condone! I would pick it up and start to shoot at it!
- I would always expose myself. Well, I have nothing to hide. If I hide and hide, one day, this sickness would come and reveal itself in the public and disgrace me. So, I am always open to God- ‘Oh, daddy, I am becoming proud! Ah!’; ‘Oh, my husband, can’t you see I am becoming so nagging these days, ah, pray for me o.’ Things like that. I am not saying you should take a mic and go to the housetop to announce your struggles. It could even be a stroll you take with the Lord to tell Him all you have realized about your life. You expose them all.
- I always pray for more hatred for the Devil and his works. Ah, when I started this prayer so many years ago, I never knew it would eventually become like this for me. Oh, how much the Lord heard those prayers! He gave me so much intolerance for anything that is of the Devil. If I find any work of his dominating me, I quickly run and cry and ask God to give me more hatred for it. If I hate it so much, I wouldn’t give it a room in my heart!
- I do not joke with my daily time with God. Any day something tampers wlth my GOOD time with the Lord, I always realize that it strengthens the flesh. Ah, since I realized just as my sister has rightfully explained above that the Lord needs me to continually be in Him and do nothing of myself, how He wants to be my source, to be the river of life that enriches the palm tree (me) planted by its side, my daily time with the Lord is my biggest priority in life. If you find yourself unable to fight sinn, check it, you have no time for your spirit!
- I don’t stay down! I have realized that what the Devil does is make you fall into sins, make you so guilty and condemned, make the standard of the Lord look so diffcult and unattainable, and then you are grounded! You stay down and defeated. Ah, I don’t allow that! Recently, I got a news that really hurt me, it broke me. It was unbelievable for me. The Holy Spirit was there to comfort me but the Devil was there to tell me that I shouldn’t take that nonsense. I should pray some wicked prayers on the perpetrator and all that. My the Holy Spirit told me to pray His prayers for the person. He asked me to forget about it and not allow the Devil. Whenever I listened to that guy that I hate, I am so weak and tired and down. When I listened to the One who my soul loves, I am empowered. He wraps His arms round me and whispers peace to my soul. Well, I told the Devil pointblank that he won’t have the day! I picked myself back up by His Power.
- Talk to the Devil authoritatively! I do this a lot. When he speaks into my head, I reply back with laughter ‘What are you trying to do? Satan, you don’t seem to understand that I hate you. I hate you with passion and you are right under my feet. You have been defeated, man!’. Open your mouth like that and tell him how you feel about him. Hahaha, those words would start to form your reality about him! And he would start to realize that you mean business. Speak those words, sis, don’t just think them!
I can go on and on but dear sisters, the charge today is that the cancer of the sins in our lives should scare us. It should push us to the operating theatre! It should cause a deep hatred in our hearts towards it! We should hate it so much for even ever daring to enter into our lives. God seeks to purify us day after day, sis- this is sanctification! With this, we will be victorious in the battles of life! Let us shed all the weights of the cancer that we can be really battle fit! Are you ready?

- Satan, I know you are an accuser. You accuse me to myself that I am a worthless believer who falls short of God’s glory; you accuse me to God that He doesn’t need to love me because I don’t deserve it; you accuse God to me that He is too holy to need me; and you accuse me to my brethren that I am a hypocrite. However, today, I silence your voice. I command you to flee from me right now in Jesus’ name! All your wiles over my life are brought to nought by the power of Christ at work in me in Jesus’ name. I triumph over you, I take authority over you, I trample you, I over come all your powers and that of your cohorts over me in Jesus’ name.
- My confession is that I am dead to the flesh and my life is now hid in Christ Jesus.
- I confess that it is God who is at work in me, both to will and to do of His good pleasure.

- Every root of sin, seed of sin that is resident in my heart, my life, I uproot you now by the fire of the Holy Ghost.
- Every trace of sin, lying in wait for me, unbeknownst to me, waiting to be provoked, I command you to be exposed from this moment in Jesus’ name. I receive grace to triumph over you in Jesus’ name.
- Every sin that is waiting for a time for me to ridicule God’s name in my life, you are exposed now by fire and I am rid of you in Jesus’ name.
- I am let loose from every bondage of sin in the name of Jesus.
- Every distractions keeping me away from God’s presence, the source of my strength, I take power to resist you and say no in Jesus name.
- Oh Daddy, bestow richly in my heart a very strong hatred for Satan and all hs works in the Mighty Name of Jesus.
