TESTIMONY HIGHLIGHT
Let us read through these testimonies before we pray. May your own testimony also arrive speedily and gloriously to the Glory of the Lord alone in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
- I want to thank God for helping me in my assessments thus far. I had sent in requests concerning Neuroscience challenge but God has strengthened me to study and understand the course. I have written the 3 assessments one was on the 14th, 21st and the 28th was moved to 24th and I can say God helped me to prepare accurately. God be praised! -I know He’ll perfect all things that concern me.
- God has indeed started His Wonderful works in my life, there was a certain amount of money of mine with someone and I initially budgeted it for my clinical posting levy and Glory to God just last night, the money landed with even extra. I want to really bless the name of God for coming through for me. Amen.
- God is Faithful! This year I wrote a request in my Juicy July journal and God did it. My younger sis is to write a professional exam this November but the school wasn’t giving a positive answer, I told God I wanted him to make a way that she would be able to write it and He did it. She was able to write the precouncil exam and when she didn’t meet the first criteria he made a way and that the criteria was removed. I know by the time she will be writing the exam this November it will be a success already. Praise the Lord BUD!!!
- For a while now things haven’t been looking all that great back home. Everytime I call my parents and sibs, it’s to hear that there’s no money or they haven’t eaten all day and don’t know how they’ll go about things. It has been weighing heavily on me so much. When I have, I send the bit I can but it’s always not enough to do much. At the beginning of Juicy July when I wrote my requests down, one of them was that God show everyone of us mercy. Last week I had to update it. I added that food and money stops being a concern to us, cos at that point I didn’t even know what to do. My elder sis also needed some money in millions to process an application and the time to pay was really short. I added that too. And to God be the glory, both prayers were answered yesterday. Someone who I opened up to sent 50k to buy food expressly for my family and my sister found people to help her fund her application too, just this yesterday. While I have given thanks to God, it doesn’t feel enough, I knew I still needed to share this testimony to glorify God and his faithfulness to us. And to think that they were prayers I just added recently too. May God be forever glorified and may he continually bless and be with the vessel he has used to birth Juicy July. Thank you for giving yourself completely over to the Lord Mama. God bless you and yours. Amen.
- One of my requests was for continuous supply of the needs of my sister who is in school. My parents are retired and life hasn’t been easy but God has been faithful. So today, I called her and she told me she got a job with a new company as their graphic designer. Also, she was working for a company as their graphics designer before now and at a time, she wanted to quit, but I encouraged her not to and to the glory of God, she told me she was promoted and now, her pay has been doubled. I really want to thank God for what he has done.
- Secondly, my phone was having some challenges and I needed a replacement. God worked it out for me in a manner I didn’t expect and I was able to get another one. To God be the glory!
- Around the time we prayed about the spirit of evil recreation, boil-like rashes began to erupt all over my baby’s body. I wrote it in my journal as a request. To the glory of God, everything has been cleared by the grace of God. I felt like sharing though it seems little,I believe I will be back to testify more. Praise the Lord with me.
- I thank God because my prayer request for today concerning killing the cancer of sin has turned to testimonies. I re-dedicated my life today to God after he has exposed me to see those sins in my life that I didn’t count as something big and I’m sure the work He has started in my life, he is well able to complete it. Today, July 25 will mark the beginning of great things in my walk with God.
- I also want to thank God for his provision for my family. Lately, things have been really really tight for us, even to afford a meal per day is very hard, but today God provided some foodstuffs for us and I know he will continue to provide for us (yesterday’s bulletin “this things shall be” have helped me to put my trust in him even if things doesn’t seem like it)
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.
I HAVE HAD ENOUGH!
The yorubas will say ‘It is with your mouth you’d declare you aren’t eating anymore!’ and that it is. By your own mouth, today, you must declare that you are no longer eating rubbish! That you are no longer tolerating nonsense!
So, we are not playing today! We have had enough! Enough is enough!
O to ge!
I don’t know what it is called in your language but say ‘I have had enough!’ very loud and clear for your problems to hear!
If you have no anger enough to face your enemies, I pray the Lord to give you so much so you can push those walls down today!
You need that anger sis!
That day, Jesus came into the temple and met people buying and selling. Q place that was supposed to be holy and sacred and quiet, devoted to God!
It was filled with the bleating of goats and of religious leaders exchanging money and all that.
Jesus’ holiness rose up within Him with a huge force. He armed Himself with a whip, his spirit crying ‘I’ve had enough! What! This is the height! What audacity!’
It was with that provocation against sin that He purified the temple and chased all of them out!
If He had to go and talk to each of the vendors one after the other, don’t you think they might have even chased him out?
Well, He simply needed that huge force from inside that would be irritated at the activities of the Devil. He needed that and He got it and then, there was a solution!
Sis, your body is supposed to be the temple of the Lord but just look at you. Some powers decided that the place to go and advertise their evil products is your heart. So, they come to your head, buy, sell, shout, scream and go. They call it epilepsy or schizophrenia. And you let them? You are not mad at them? You aren’t taking a whip and chasing them all out declaring that you’ve had enough?
Or maybe it is sicknesses that have decided to make your body an abode. Like, what! The body of Jesus? How dare you infection! How dare you deafness! How dare you cancer!
Sisters, we need that anger today to set the temples straight and sacred again!
You need to stand vehemently against the forces trying to disrupt your marriage, sis. The sacred union meant to glorify God has become a battlefield for the enemy. It’s time to declare, “I’ve had enough!”
Look at your spiritual life, sis. Once vibrant and full of fire for God, now it’s plagued by spiritual lethargy, distractions, and compromise. This is your sacred temple, and the enemy has no right to defile it. Stand up and declare, “Enough is enough!”
What of your finances? It is supposed to be a testimony of God’s provision and blessing, but they have become a source of worry and strife. The enemy has set up camp, bringing poverty, debt, and lack. Today, declare, “I’ve had enough!”
Your children are gifts from God, meant to fulfill divine purposes. Yet, the enemy has targeted them with rebellion, sickness, and negative influences. Rise up, sis, and declare, “Enough is enough!”
How can you be writing the same paper ten times?
How can you be borrowing to eat? You the daughter of the King?
How can you still be struggling with those delays and denials?
How can your two eyes be open and the Devil will be touching things that belong to you anyhow without any reaction from you???
Sis, you need to wake up and say ‘I have had enough!’
Enough of this bed wetting!
Enough of this bleeding!
Enough of this hatred that people shower me with!
Enough!
Enough!
Enough!
I have had enough!
Enough is enough of prolonged blessings
Enough is enough of stagnancy
Enough is enough of drops of blessings!- but for the showers, we plead!
THE VIOLENT TAKES IT BY FORCE!
Sisters, the Bible says in Matthew 11:12 that ‘And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.’
The Kingdom of God suffers violence!
The Kingdom of God can only be taken by force!
The violent person must keep knocking violently, with persistence until He takes the Kingdom of Heaven for himself!
Are you violent enough, sisters?
Are you angry enough?
Maybe you have been trying to be peaceful with the devil?
Ah, that’s an error!
No negotiation with the Devil and his works- only commands of authority!
Enough is enough!
I have had enough!
Many times, when farmers plant some crops, termites, rats and other pests would go there and eat up the fruits or leaves of the crops and reduce the plenteous harvest that the farmers would have had.
Put yourself in the position of the farmer. What would do against the next harvest?
You would prevent the insects from going near your crops!
You would get pesticides and germicides and keep the pests away!
You shouldn’t fold your arms and say ‘At least, we are still seeing small small crops during harvest’
Ah!
You are comfortable with losses and limits and shortened rations?
This should not be!
Sisters, many of us have only been hoping without praying, we’ve been hoping that, since His thoughts for us are good and not evil, then someday, sometime, we will get there.
It doesn’t happen just like that when you have a very terrible enemy that doesn’t give up nor wants your harvest delivered to you!
On the other hand, some of us have lost hope and perhaps given up totally. You don’t even have the strength to pray (plant good seeds), so the Devil keeps helping you to plant his weeds and all. Of course sis! Your yard cannot be left bare like that. If you refuse to plant good seeds, the Devil would come audaciously and start farming there. No piece of land is without plants. On the farm of the diligent, you will see well protected crops. On the farm of the lazy, you will see grasses- weeds!
Ah. enough is enough sisters! You must pray!
Yes, sometimes we ought to get immediate answers to our prayer requests but because of spiritual locusts, the palmerworms, cankerworms, and caterpillars, our prayers are delayed – sicknesses and diseases that ought to evaporate at the voices of our prayers are prolonged because of some evil forces, should we just fold our hands and keep on hoping as if we are serving a man-made god?
No!
Imagine what Daniel experienced in his days, God released the answers to his prayers right from the first day but the locust called ‘the prince of the kingdom of Persia’ withstood the angel that was bringing down his blessings.
What did Daniel do?
Did he give up prayers?
Of course not! He kept on bombarding heaven and he kept knocking on heaven’s doors until his fervency caused God to send the archangel – Michael to give the victory!
Can you imagine such honor?
For one of the chief princes to leave his duties in heaven and come down to intervene in his situation?
Then, it can only mean that Daniel didn’t allow God to rest.
You can read more about the intervention of Prince Michael in Daniel 10:10-13.
Now. Let us face our own lives!
How often do we pray or how many prayers do we offer before we give up and lock up just because answers are not coming?
Sisters, please, join me to say ‘I have had enough!
I am not giving up anymore until something happens! I receive the grace to keep pushing even when going gets tough and tears blind my eyes in Jesus Name.
Isaiah 41: 10 – 13 says:
‘Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee, yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish. Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of naught. For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee’.
That’s His assurance again that in this battle, we aren’t going alone! We have the leading (not the backing), the leading of the Lord of Hosts!!!! He leads and we follow!
God assured Jacob in the text above that He would help him, just as God is assuring you today that help has come at last! Amen?
My help has come at last!
Today marks the end of this rubbish (mention it) in my life in Jesus Name!!!
Jacob was in a season at that time just as many of us are experiencing a season now- but the Lord that changes seasons and time is here to change your season from a breakdown season to a breakthrough season, in the name of Jesus!!!
Jacob was in a season of helplessness, hopelessness and fear. When he looked behind him, he saw his uncle Laban who had employed and oppressed him for 20 years and would not let him go.
In front of him was Esau, his brother, with 400 soldiers. Esau had not forgiven him and had vowed to kill him for stealing his blessing 20 years earlier.
He was a victim of ancient hatred and perpetual unforgiveness!
Jacob had sent emissaries and gifts to his brother, Esau, to appease him for the wrong he had done but Esau was not moved.
There are some people who are just too difficult to please. You beg them, ask for their forgiveness, and try to please them but the more you try, the more they become angry. That was what Jacob was experiencing in the hands of Laban and Esau. They wouldn’t let him be!
Then Jacob cried to God in an all-night wrestling match. He prayed for help and God’s intervention. His prayer was intentional, targeted and a shift in attitude. He recognized that no one would help him but God. He was alone with God in a vigil.
Jacob’s prayer vigil was to say, “I have now had enough, Papa!” for his troubles. Then the help of God showed up for him!
The moment Jacob became intentional about seeking God for divine help, that help located him!
I pray for you that as you become intentional in seeking God, He will visit you mightily, in the name of Jesus.
He will give you the right confidence in the place of prayer that will push out the enemies of your life so that they flee from you in seven ways in Jesus Name! Amen!
May the help that has eluded you for years locate you this season, in the name of Jesus!
The intentional “I have had enough” prayer of Jacob ensured that when God’s help came, Esau and his 400 soldiers were no match for Jacob. They all bowed!
Sisters, today is the 29th day of the Juicy July 2024. Ah, just like that! The month is ending, sis!
Have you reached Heaven’s gates?
Can Heaven be certain that you have been there, knocking and seeking??
This is not the time to give up, sis. Spend these last few days to fight harder!
Sing this song if you know it:
Temi o ni soro se lodo Re, Baba
(My case will not be difficult with You, Father)
Agbara bi ara n be lodo Re, Baba
(Power like thunder resides in You, Father)
Repeat it over and over again till you are led to move on.
ROUNDING OFF
The strength of the oppressor is in the silence of the oppressed!
No more silence!
A closed mouth is said to be a closed destiny- no more closed mouths!
Sisters, what you continue to allow in your life, you will never be free from!
Will you continue that disrespect from the Devil?
Are you tired of your situations?
Are you tired of being oppressed by demonic circumstances?
Then rise up and tell the devil that you have had enough!
Remember the story of blind Bartimaeus who cried so hard and could not be shut up by the crowd? He got his sight back because of his violent determination!
What about the parable of the widow seeking justice from the king in Luke 18:1-7? She got her heart desire because of her stubborn and consistent pursuit!
You also can be free from any form of bondage today when you pray I HAVE HAD ENOUGH!’
PRAYER TIME
WORSHIP
Let us take some quality time to worship the Lord for His Word that we have just gone through. Worship the Lord for who He is. Give Him all the glory for How great He is. Only He could have turned a small grapevine into something so high, great and so deep.
Give Him glory because all things in Heaven and on earth are His and to Him be power to make anyone prosper. Adore Him for His goodness and mercies over your life.
Thank God for His Word that He has expounded to us. Give God the glory for the opportunity to wait on Him in prayers. Adore Him because He is set to do in your life things that are beyond the ordinary.
SPIRITUAL SANITATION
Begin to sanitize your life right now. Rid your life of every sins and iniquities with the Blood of Jesus. The Lord does not hear the prayers coming from the mouth of a sinner, but if such confesses and forsakes the sins, the Lord will have mercy, hear and forgive.
ATMOSPHERIC SANITATION
Now, take charge of your environment. Begin to cover where you are now with the Blood of Jesus. Cover yourself with the fire of the Holy Ghost.
