Hebrews 12:29 (KJV)

For our God is a consuming fire.

There was a time when the prophets of old had to challenge public opinion publicly. Joshua asked a wavering assembly who they would serve and declared, "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." Confronted with a similar scenario of waverers, Isaiah asked, "Whose report will you believe?" As for Prophet Elijah, his question to the masses was clear in 1 Kings 18:21: "How long will you vacillate between two opinions? If Baal, be god, then serve him, but if God be God, then serve Him,” and Jehovah Chikopokopo (the One who needs no runway) answered Elijah by fire.

Our God is a heavyweight. He is beyond comparison – the One who starts from the end and finishes at the beginning. It does not matter what part of the year of Milk and Honey; our God holds time in His hands, and His timing is always perfect. Your business will not go under, your children will not go wayward, and your finances will not dry up! The good work started in you already in this year of Milk and Honey will not cease. You’re rising higher and higher in Jesus' Name!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I am headed for victory! No matter the public opinion, no matter the naysayers, no matter the altars of Baal, my God shall reward me publicly. My victory shall be undebatable. This one, I will win! Amen.

Exodus 24:17

Acts 19:12 (KJV)

So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.

The Bible says Paul's handkerchiefs were used to heal the sick. Notice that the handkerchief is simply a conduit, a channel through which the anointing flows. If you want to see the potency of the anointing you carry being manifested, you must be prepared to exercise your faith and act. Understand we are members of Christ's body, so when you move, Jesus is moving.

Imagine a handkerchief has no feeling; it does not hear; it is inanimate, yet Apostle Paul’s handkerchief was used to heal the sick when they came in contact with it. So, what about you, a living, breathing, tongue-talking, Spirit-filled Christian? When you see the sick out there, you know the power you carry, so begin to exercise it. You are better than a handkerchief! You are the conduit of the anointing!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I am the God-Kind. The very headquarters of God is tabernacled in my body. No sickness, no virus can survive in my body. I carry the healing power, anointed to heal the sick and cast out devils in the Name of Jesus! Amen.

Mark 16:17

2 Corinthians 9:11 (KJV)

Being enriched in everything to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.

One thing I noticed about God in this scripture is that God did not only bless Isaac; He caused Isaac and his seed to become conduits of blessings. God’s idea of blessing Isaac was to make him a conduit of the blessings of heaven and bless nations through him. As you receive the blessings of God upon your life, always remember that there are nations that should be blessed through you. Your blessings are indications that you should be a blessing to many more people.

God’s end-time purpose for blessing you is for you to serve as a pipeline through which the blessings flow. In this year of Milk and Honey, don’t be counted among those who imagine that whatever God does for them ends with them. As you get blessed, allow the nations to be blessed through you. Decide today to be a sole sponsor of conferences and crusades so that all the nations of the earth are reached with the good news as the waters cover the seas, for yours is a special call; don’t not ignore it.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I am a conduit for the blessings of nations; multitudes will be blessed through me, in Jesus’ Name! Amen.

Matthew 20:15

Acts 10:4 (KJV)

And when He looked on him, He was afraid, and said, what is it, Lord? And He said unto him, thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.

There’s an unquenchable combination of spiritual realities that catch God's attention in a dramatic fashion. Cornelius’ prayer and giving effectively blocked God's panoramic view of planet Earth. God didn't visit him in a dream as he did with Solomon, but instead immediately dispatched an angel to announce his impact in the heavens. Giving backed up with effectual prayer becomes an irresistible force that changes destinies and generations. God clearly states in His word that He's unwilling to do without a prompt to give giver. A giver has a front-row seat in God’s assembly!

One man's prayer and giving made him the first successful candidate through whom salvation came to the Gentiles. When you’re a prayerful giver, you’re kept under God’s radar permanently. I’m surprised at Christians whose sole intent in bringing about a generational change is through the vehicle of prayer yet neglect or pay little attention to giving! From our scripture for today, prayer and giving must be simultaneously engaged to experience the full measure of Milk and Honey this year.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I am relentless in prayer, and my giving in this year of Milk and Honey will shock me and move Heaven without fail to God's glory in Jesus' Name. Amen.

Philippians 4:18

Psalms 119:130 (NLT)

The teaching of your word gives light, so even the simple can understand.

When we exude scriptures, we bring light to ourselves, individuals, families, institutions, communities, and nations. The amount of light you possess through the Word determines the extent of your dominance and prowess in the realm of the Spirit. You cannot be bankrupt of the Word and expect to dominate in the realm of the Spirit. Our Lord Jesus, when He confronted Satan in the wilderness, didn't treat the enemy casually but stood His ground on "It is written!" Jesus applied the Word to defeat the arch-enemy.

Jesus, in John 1:1, is the Word of God, yet He teaches us by example to go for the Word when under attack by the enemy. It is not how you feel or your opinion about the situation but what the Word says! You may be overdrawn, busted, and poverty may think there’s no way out of your condition, but the Word says, let the poor say I am rich! Go for the Word and see poverty flee out of your life. Read the Word, study the Word, meditate on the Word, and by so doing, you infect your environment with light that will transform your destiny forever.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

The Word of God is oozing through my veins. I am unbreakable! I dominate through the Word of God and quench every fiery dart of the enemy. Amen.

Proverbs 6:23

Joshua 7:21 (KJV)

When I saw among the spoils a goodly Babylonish garment, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold of fifty shekels weight, then I coveted them, and took them; and, behold, they are hid in the earth in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.

Money is a very sensitive subject to some within the body of Christ. Most Christians associate money with the devil and oppose prosperity, accepting poverty as a form of godliness and penury as piety. No wonder God said, “My people,” not people from outside the Church, but His own people die because of lack of knowledge. They take offerings during church services and conferences, yet they say money is evil. See how they get the Word of God twisted!

1 Timothy 6:10 says, “For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves ....” The love of money is the root of all evil, not money itself! A couple bitterly arguing at each other’s throats, check it thoroughly: the root cause will be the love of money! As for you, in this year of Milk and Honey, money will not escape you. You will experience the sweetness of being wealthy and prosperous. MONEY IS HERE! TAKE IT!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

My lines are fallen in pleasant places. I take hold of my possessions, and my life is a wonder to show forth God’s glory! Praise the Lord! Amen.

Matthew 6:19

2 Timothy 2:5 (KJV)

And if a man also strives for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strives lawfully.

I talk to many of my spiritual sons and daughters, those with global and national ministries, and this goes for you, too: focus on what you do best. If you're good at teaching the word, stick to it. If you're good at the prophetic, focus on prophesying, and if it's evangelism, then evangelise. The moment you deviate from your calling, you have invited trouble. The principle here is to stick to your calling and see God move you from glory to glory in different dimensions. You cannot be a Jack of all trades and master of none.

John the Baptist strayed from his assignment as a forerunner of Christ baptising in the wilderness and took on the role of a marriage counsellor for Herod, then ended up losing his head. Gaining mastery in what you do catapults you to new dimensions with speed. Discover your calling and stick to it. In this year of Milk and Honey, as you move in your calling, I decree and declare an overflow of fresh anointing to announce you to your global audience in the Name of Jesus!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I shall not depart from my calling. No tricks of the enemy will convince me to abandon my post. I shall stay the course to experience God from glory to glory. Amen.

1 Corinthians 9:25

Deuteronomy 11:10 (KJV)

For the land, whither thou goest in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where thou sowedst thy seed, and wateredst it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs:

The journey from Egypt to the promised land was tedious, hazardous, and challenging. Yet, God provided for them supernaturally for forty years. In the promised land, you must occupy to settle. You must dig your heels in and tell that sickness, “You will not have me!” Tell that financial situation, "You will not embarrass me." Tell Satan and his cohorts, "You will not destroy my marriage!" Stand your ground and take hold of your possessions!

Inheritance belongs to sons. Notice, it was Joshua who crossed over with the Israelites into the promised land. The year of Milk and Honey means the sons have entered their promised land, and you have entered your inheritance. This is your season to occupy; possess your possessions! Bear in mind, this is not a gentle, kind, friendly takeover of the promised land, for there are giants in the land that will oppose your entry. So, if you're not born with it or into it, fight for it!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

Devil, I serve you final notice today. Get out of my property! The owner is home! No more chaos in my family! No more financial scarcity as I live in my promised land, in Jesus' Name! Amen.
