JUICY JULY DAY 7
THEME: MADE BATTLE-FIT
DATE:7/7/2024
TOPIC: THE WAKENED EARS
TEXT: ISAIAH 50:4
BIBLE STUDY: 1 JOHN 1
We have eaten one week deep into Juicy July 2024 already! Wheeew! Hallelujah to the Lord God of Host for giving us this very great privilege. It has been a moment of gaining deep insights into how the Lord would have our lives go so that we wouldn’t live as victims but as victors. I pray that the desire of the Lord becomes a reality in our lives in Jesus Name. Amen.
TESTIMONY HIGHLIGHT
Let us read through this striking testimony that we received yesterday to rouse our spirits before we start to pray. May your own testimony also arrive to the Glory of the Lord alone in Jesus’ Name.
You know I keep seeing the testimony link and I keep skipping it till God reminded me of my prayer requests for last Juicy July and even afterwards. I was sad and frustrated that time. Being also my birth month, I had so many worries but wrote my request in my jotter. I don’t have the jotter right now. I prayed to God for outstanding success in my Bar finals, and I made a First Class, even when the exam conditions were not so great. God also protected me for the months I stayed in that State, the harsh weather and health scares, and I came back home safely. For my brother’s wedding and relocation, God took control, my younger sister got admission into the University, God provided and raised help for me in so many ways. I got a job too, a position and a workplace which I didn’t even realize was difficult to get in till I met people who had applied and asked me how I did it. It made me see how God went ahead of me. Even favoring me before people who are reputed to be hostile. Summarily, God came through for me in every way.
PRAYER/WORSHIP
Spend a good time in prayers and worship before launching into the prayer guide.
INTRODUCTION
Made Battle-fit! Made Battle-fit! I like to ponder seemingly ‘weird’ topics over and over again to see what they could mean beyond the surface. I don’t know if you are like me and if you have taken time to examine over and over what this theme means. Oh, I pray that the aim of the Lord bringing about this theme becomes a reality in our lives in Jesus’ Name.
You know, we live in times when money is a determinator of so many things. Money determines many people’s moods, their appetites, their going to church, their serving God, their morning devotion, their lifestyle etc. Many people are still serving the Lord today because they need money. They need financial breakthrough. They want to travel abroad. That is why they are humble and praying and fasting. Immediately God gives to them what they are looking for, the Lord has lost them! They get abroad, start to pursue the money so terribly and rarely make out time for God. This is not the way of life! The love of money is not the way of life but of death!
My sister, just ask yourself. If the Lord should elevate you a little bit into that level you are dreaming of, would He still be the Lord of your life? Would you still be humble in your relationships with people? What I have realized is that more than poverty, wealth really tests our heart’s posture more. You should never say a poor man is very meek and gentle and humble until you have first tried him with wealth! Oh, may the Lord give us the understanding of what I am saying in Jesus Name.
So, because of money, things have become so easy. You can stay in the confines of your home, make a few clicks and before you know it, a van has pulled up in front of your house to make deliveries of foods, clothings, gadgets etc that you desired, purchased and paid for. You can buy almost everything with money these days- even a nanny to take care of your children and home; the maid to help you clean your body, cut your nails, make your hair; the one that will help you clean the house and make lots of foods. You can even get prayers from some ‘pastors’ these days by having money!
However, the way to spiritual greatness is not the way of money! You will never be able to buy God with money. Hey, wait! You can buy 15000 Bibles, get 20000 journals and colourful highlighters. You can write on the social media and feel like a spiritual person by posting some ‘Rhema’ you caught from listening/researching through some YouTube videos. You can use your money to get all of those. But you know what? The REAL DEAL cannot be gotten with money! Not even by sacrifices! The REAL DEAL comes by education! A day to day education by the Lord Himself! You and Him alone in class! My question is- Have you enrolled already? Have you started your course?
When Paul was about to die, he wrote to Timothy and said: I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith….(2 Timothy 4:7). There is a course, a syllabus for each of us. I ask again, have you enrolled for this course yet or you are planning to do that after bagging all the forms of degree you can bag from the secular world first?
God lacks disciples today because so many believers are not able to choose the way of the REAL DEAL! Many people like Simon the sorcerer wish there could be a way they could pay money to get the power of the Holy Spirit. But listen to what Peter had to say to them: “May your money perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money! Acts 8:18-25
You can buy spiritual materials with money, you can buy spiritual titles with money, you can buy a full church and start teaching them with your money, you can run a successful ‘businessy- ministry’ with money but hey, you can never be able to buy the Holy Spirit and His daily education and works with money!
THE WAKENED EARS
I have been emphasizing the need for us to have hearing ears since the start of this programme but may I let you know that ears that hear are ears that have been wakened? Oh yes, sis! We have two different types of ears: the sleeping ears and the wakened ears. The sleeping ear is not wakened, so it cannot hear anything! The wakened ears, because they have been wakened will not only hear but understand! Amen?
How do we have the wakened ears, then?
Let us examine our text in different translations for a clear grip- Isaiah 50:4-
KJV: The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
NIV: The Sovereign Lord has given me a well-instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being instructed.
TLB: The Lord God has given me his words of wisdom so that I may know what I should say to all these weary ones. Morning by morning he wakens me and opens my understanding to his will.
MSG: The Master, God, has given me a well-taught tongue, So I know how to encourage tired people. He wakes me up in the morning, Wakes me up, opens my ears to listen as one ready to take orders.
Prophet Isaiah was able to have a tongue of the learned, a well-instructed tongue, tongue with words of wisdom, a well-taught tongue because morning by morning, the Lord wakes his ears to hear and to listen as:
- The learned (a student)
- One being instructed
- As one ready to take orders.
Oh my! Dear sisters, I trust that this is not too difficult for you to grasp, right? Let me try to simplify it. Plato was a student of Socrates. Socrates taught him, trained him and poured into him. So, when Plato stood to talk, the listeners knew of a surety that ‘this one had been with Socrates, wow!’’ Plato’s ears were attuned to the voice and teachings of Socates that before you know it, they would soon begin to sound alike.
Recently, I started to take my courses with the Lord a little bit more serious. He opened my ears to grasp more wisdom and sharpened my tongue thereby. He gave me my own teachers, specially curated for His assignment for me and since the course began, if I speak now, I sound different than I used to. I have seen the changes so much in myself, so I can affirm it so greatly when I hear outsiders mention it. I am still in training and will continue to be in training till I like Paul can say ‘I have now finished my course!’. Oh yes, it is a life-long training! I hope you have grabbed the point noow. So, let us go on.
Do you want to speak with wisdom and give life to people? Do you want to pray with your tongues such prayers that will ascend into the throne of grace with immense alacrity? Do you desire a great change to your being which will leave people convicted and hung over in convictions? You need two things:
- He wakeneth morning by morning
- He wakeneth mine ear to hear
Dear sisters, what wakes you up every morning? Alarm clock? Okay, what does the alarm ask you to do? To bath and go to work? Oh no! Our money-chasing generation has been deceived into thinking that ‘Oh, you can have your devotion anytime of the day, actually. In your car, at night, anywhere. God understands’
And then they wonder why they live defeated Christian lives. And the church wonders why there are so many unserious people in the church today. They wonder why they aren’t able to be free from their addictions and bad habits. They are too busy for their spirit but desire deep spiritual growth and power! No, sisters, it doesn’t work that way! You cannot keep skipping the morning-by-morning training and expect spiritual powers. It just is not possible!
The morning course is very very important. We saw the Lord Jesus Himself go out early in the morning while it was yet dark to pray! (Mark 1:35-39). In our text today, MSG says the Lord ‘…wakes me up, opens my ears to listen as one ready to take orders.’ The Lord wakes us up so He couild give us orders for the day. How could He pass orders on to us when we have fixed our personal devotion for our left-over time at night?
Whatever it is dear sis that is occupying your morning period? You don’t sleep early? Why? Because of TV Shows you watch at night before you sleep? Then, the TV shows might have to leave. Whatever stops you from gaining your personal spiritual education is a big enemy that you should never toy with! Fix your schedule, sis and give the Lord your mornings!
THE MORNING-BY-MORNING EDUCATION
You can also enrol for your courses today if you have not started. All it takes is you turning to Him every morning! If He sees you are serious, He will show up. This education is a one-on-one education though, not the one you do with another person or in a class. While others are sleeping, like Jesus Christ, you pull yourself away into your closet and sit down like a student. ‘Oh Daddy, I am here again. Yesterday, You taught me about the power of patience. Oh, it was such an intense teaching, Daddy. I almost lost my patience with my daughter last night but as I remembered Your Word, I had to quickly run back to the Throne of Grace. Oh Daddy, fix me. Fix my impatience, I cannot do this on my own…’ I don’t know if this is the kind of relationship you have with God. Oh, this is such a tremendously great way to start, sisters! Oh, I can tell you from experience that it works. Let me try to give a breakdown of how I started this life some over ten years ago:
- I wake up LONG before everyone wakes.
- I ALWAYS have a very special place for meeting with God, so I move there.
- I greet the Lord like I could see Him. (Well, before long, I could actually start to feel Him)
- I start to pace around, singing, if I still feel sleepy. I sing majorly from my hymnal.
- I tell Him/or write in my journal of my success of the day before. (How as I was about to see a movie, the Holy Spirit nudged me to close my laptop and go to sleep so I could wake up early for my time with Him and I obeyed! I would then thank Him for empowering me to choose Him)
- Then, I tell Him of my failures if there were any (How for instance, I joined in a discussion about someone which was none of my business and how guilt was all over me during the day until I confessed it as sin. Then I ask for His grace to walk away from issues like that next time)
- Then, I ask my Father, what He would have for me that day. What would He love to teach me? Where would He love for me to study? What would He love to correct in me?
- I listened a lot. I mean, I ensured to not just talk and talk. I would talk and then pause, waiting with my ears bent to have His response. At my early days, I wouldn’t hear anything, so I would simply just say ‘Alright Daddy, I know You probably said something that I couldn’t pick up. I trust that You train my ears to be able to hear You so that I am not just having a monologue when I come into Your Presence. For now, I will just study this place and pray that you speak to my heart)
- Then, I study my Scriptures and write down the lessons and understandings from the passage in my notes.
- I bring out my prayer list and touch on some of my prayer points. At this level, my prayers were still so selfish- just about me and my family members.
- I read a few pages from the book on prayer, revival or whatever that I was studying at the point. (Never was I in a rush to finish 100 books a year. Haha. This is absolutely something that cannot yield fruits in people, I am certain. I can chew on a book for three good months or even more!)
- If there was till time, I would read briefly through the devotional guide that I had. Just as an icing on my cake, never the cake in itself!
- I hand over the day to the Lord and ask that He leads me.
- I listen for some good minutes to see if He would say anything to me. (Those days, my mind would wander and I would keep pulling it back. I might not hear anything and that would be fine. I knew I needed to just be consistent. I knew He would show up one day! And didn’t He? Haha, He did!)
- Then, I worship again, pacing to and fro.
- Then, I check how long I spent with him (My goal was always about 1hr. 45 minutes in the morning. Soon, I was spending triple the time as I started to enjoy His Presence)
- I leave my prayer room rejuvenated and prepared to face the world for the day.
- I never stopped. (There were all these normal struggles where I woke up extremely late, was sick etc. but I ensured as much as I could never to stop! In fact, I told the Lord to retract my joy anytime I had not sat at His feet a day. He has been faithful to this till date!)
You do not have to follow what I have explained above. That was His style for me. Noone taught me these things. He taught me Himself. He trained me in such a way that it would be easy for me to grab. A good teacher would always do that. He would assess his student, study him, watch out for His peculiarities and then draw out a plan that befits such. So, you can just look at how I started and ask the Lord to draft out your own lesson plan for you. But please do not forget that last point I stated above. I NEVER STOPPED! It was a daily thing! A consistent thing! Medical people can tell you assuredly that if you do not do due diligence to using your antibiotics accordingly, consistently as prescribed, you will soon start to build resistance to that medication. It won’t work the way it should anymore. You might need to be prescribed a different antibiotics then. NEVER STOP! He that puts His hands on the plough and looks back is not fit for the Kingdom of God.
A GOOD STUDENT OF THE LORD:
- Wakes up early.
- Asks her teacher a lot of questions– the foolish questions are also welcome. God loves them. It is the simple (foolish), He bestows wisdom on!
- Talks a lot. In the kitchen, she is talking to the Lord. On the road, she is talking. In the cab, she is talking. She makes a living of talking to the Lord! If you talk a lot to the Lord, you have almost nothing to talk/gossip about with fellow humans. God has then achieved a good thing in you then!
- Takes notes. A teacher definitely likes students who sit before them and take notes. How can you come to the class of the Lord without pen and note? No wonder He doesn’t waste His resources and teachings on you, because you are not ready to take them down. He says over and over in the scriptures, ‘Write them down!’
- Shuts up and Listens: When you have talked to the Lord, imagine Him in front of you, then, pause and listen for His response/instruction. Then, ask to be sure if you heard correctly. ‘Daddy, are you trying to say that even though that lady doesn’t care about me, I should still give her that money she is requesting for?’. Shut up and listen again for the stirs and the peace etc. with which He might start to speak to you with.
- Honours and is grateful to the teacher
- Is always excited to go to class.
- Never stops learning till graduation.
WHAT DOES THE CURRICULUM LOOK LIKE?
Spiritual education looks different for each person. Of course, just like in every educational system, there are the general courses. The courses of Forgiveness, Holiness, Baptism, Trinity etc are some of the general courses. But their are specific courses for our special needs. Enrolling for these courses does something in us called SANCTIFICATION.
Contrary to what you might have learned, sanctification is ‘being made holy’. ‘Being made battle-fit’. It is the cutting away of the fat that you probably didn’t know you had.
I was telling some of my sisters during the just concluded WIHS Discipleship Course that after the Lord had taken me through some lessons this season, He constantly expressed His satisfaction when I passed His tests. Then, one of these days, while having my night prayers, the Holy Spirit came to inform me of the next lesson on the syllabus. He told me we were moving to the next chapter and gave me the topic. I was surprised. ‘Oh, I have issues with that?’ I asked, quite amazed. Then, He took me on a quick scan to reveal some of the areas that issue had manifested itself in my life. He told me that that was the next lesson to take and I said ‘Yes sir!’. Depending on how fast I take the course and pass, He won’t move to the next chapter. That is sanctification. He would keep cutting His separated vessel to size. He’d keep making us holy. He’d keep exposing us and purifying us for His purpose. This can only happen when we are locked in the class with Him alone.
If for instance I tell you about the lesson He is having with me, it might not resonate with you. You might be well ahead of me in lesson or behind. So, it is better you go to the Teacher and let Him draft your own lesson for you.
GOD HAS NO FAVORITES!
May I quickly inform you that God has no favorites? Everyone who is now in Christ is special to the Lord. He doesn’t choose one over the other. He has chosen all of us already! What differentiates all of God’s children is the exposure to Heavenly education.
Any true believer you see being used of the Lord in this generation is not doing anything special. Honestly! The person is simply just doing the morning by morning classes, maybe taking evening classes also, denying the flesh big time and making obedience to and leading by the Holy Spirit seriously as her daily job!
So, I am saying this to say that you can do it! I can do it! We can become learned!
WHAT DOES HE ACHIEVE?
- He achieves sanctification in us.
- He gains our trust and we gain His.
- He reveals spiritual things to us that the crowd of Christians don’t have access to.
- He sharpens our spiritual sensitivity
- He makes us vessels that He can use to strengthen and bless others.
- Our tongues are trained to talk like God, with power.
- Our ears pick up Heavenly languages very fast.
- We grow spiritually and get to love Him more.
ROUNDING OFF
So the Lord comes daily to whisper to You and if your spirit is in sync with Heaven, the schedule of His visitation will be consistent like His visitation to Adam in the garden of Eden. He will come to waken your ears. What the Lord had with Adam was education. Adam was in a school. He was in a school to be trained on how to be a man. I hope you know Adam did not have the opportunity to grow up as a child. He was created as an adult. So he was a small man in a big body. That’s why he couldn’t stand the devil. Anytime you fail, when the devil shows up, it’s because you are a small girl in a big body. You have not been taught by the divine!
So God used to visit Adam in the garden and the visitation was for education, for upgrade, so that he would understand his capacity and he would be able to function accordingly. God has not closed down that school. He still visits morning by morning and in order for you and I to be part of the school, what He does is that He gives us an ear. Not the physical ears you can see. There is another pair of ears that he gives. Oh, may He give you yours today. And if you have had that experience and have lost it, may your ears be restored again- so that the accurate prophetic message from the heart of God can sound in the space he has placed you. So that you can understand all that the Lord is doing this season and be all that He needs you to be.
Sisters, it is only by the journeys of prayer that we can get our spiritual hearing. He wakes me morning by morning. There’s education. There’s instruction. He comes in and tells us when to stand. He tells us when to sit. He tells us when to walk away and He tells us when to run!
He wakens me morning by morning! Stop being an emergency fighter, sisters. Let us build strength everyday! He comes to inspire you. He comes to extend an invitation to you today, dear sisters. He wants to bring you into the frequency of His thoughts so that you can think His thoughts and become wise by the Holy Ghost. There is a strength He intends to administer strengthening you with might by His spirit in your inner man because your spirit will bear your infirmities. It is through your spirit you’ll be able to pass through pressures. The capacity you have secured in your spirit through the morning-by-morning education will become the reason why you survive the temptations, the reason why you survive the pressures and the attacks of the devil. God wants to build something through you. He wants to use you to lay a new foundation for your family and this generation. Will you yield to Him?

SPIRITUAL SANITATION

PRAYER REQUEST SPOTLIGHTS
Could we please join hands together to raise our voices to the Lord on behalf of these sisters?
1. That the Lord tear every garment of disfavour, misinterpretation and wrong identity. That the Lord cloth me with financial favour, marital favour, Academic and career favour, and grant me favour for destiny fulfilment. That the Lord takes away complacency and laziness, and negligence from my life. That the Lord save my brother from sins and deliver, because his vagabond attitude is a reproach to my family. 😭😭😭 That the Lord settles my family in every area of our lives this year.
2. Great outpour of the HolySpirit upon the boarders in the School I teach. Especially the following names ( MaryJane, Osemeke Lisa, Isioma Desire, Treasure Adams, Victory and Chiamaka). Their lives should project the light of God that will ignite the whole school (Royal Mira British College). 2. Grace to be a fruitful Spiritual Midwife to my generation.
3. God should continue to engrace me to walk this narrow path and help me know him. Abba father let there be early manifestation of the marital favour You have promised me. Abba father direct my sister’s step in 2024 to where You want for her. If it’s a Job, please do it, let it not pass 2024. Let there be celebrations of all type in my family in 2024. Father in heaven, help my siblings to passionately love Jesus. Abba in heaven, perfect all that concerns me in Jesus name.
4. God give me direction and lead me in the way to go concerning employment and career development, choosing life partner, my calling and purpose. God should have mercy on Julius Daniel Ogidi wherever he is and bring him back to him. God should provide for my parents especially my dad and bring him out of debts. Also God should heal my mum completely of ulcer. Concerning our ministry Rehoboth World Outreach, God should direct us and lead us in the way to go. I want God to break me and mold me till I become the Deborah of my time and generation as he wanted.
5. 1. That God will deliver me from bedwetting / too much sleep. That God will raise help for me financially. I’m in my final year now and I need up to 500,000 for my project, school fee, accommodation

As I’m approaching my professional exam, I have fears, that God will direct me and give me outstanding success. We are living heavily on debts, that God will break this burden and provide good jobs for us, most importantly money for the registration of my professional exam coming up in September, the deadline is next week, that God will miraculously provide for me. It’s almost 12yrs of waiting on the Lord for the fruit of the womb, it’s been hell!, I want God to please remember us and wipe away our tears and cause us to sing a new song. Restoration of health, strength and vigour to my husband. Divine breakthrough for all my siblings, that God will deliver each and everyone of us from struggling and eating from hand to mouth. Healing for my dad and destroy the power of diabetes, arthritis and prostate problems in the name of Jesus. Deliverance from every attack from the pit of hell in the life of my brothers (Emeka and Gideon) spirit of frustration be destroyed, they will progress in life and that God will draw them to Himself. Provision of an affordable house for us, we’ve been homeless for a while now, that God will intervene for us. All round settlement and rest from the Lord.
NOW TO OUR PRAYER JOURNALS
Let us raise our prayer list to the Lord and tell Him all about our requests. Let us ask the Father in the Name of Jesus to turn those requests into testimonies for us according to His Will in Jesus’ Name. Let us pray fervently on them before we move on.
ACTION TIME
Make sure you take time to plan as regards what you have learned and prayed about today or it would only remain a desire and not a reality. Take a big step. Choose the time you’d start sleeping, waking up, get your notes and pen ready. Plan, sis, plan- and stick to it, not faltering! Oh may the love of the Lord constrain us and pull us even closer than we can imagine in the Name of Jesus.
