Daily Prayer And Declarations
SPEAKER_01And you are unique before him, and he has got a unique divine assignment for you. And God's divine plan is for me to be connected to him in a loving relationship and to all other living things. And that I'm not late. There's a reason behind everything that has happened in my life up to this moment. I may not fully understand it now. I choose to trust God and surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. That's a declaration we've been making here every single day. And we pray that that shall become part of us even as we journey in the days ahead. Let's do our daily prayer this morning. God, I thank you for my blessed life and this magnificent universe and this beautiful new day. We ask that you please bless all living things today with your love, with your grace, and with your abundance. May you flow to me and through me, infinite love, joy, peace, purpose, and prosperity during this new day that you're given. And to me, say amen. Amen. What a beautiful, beautiful prayer. That's our prayer that you become a channel. You become a channel through which love and joy and peace flows. That when people come to you frustrated and ambushed and frustrated by life, they may find you a channel of joy, peace, and uh love. We can be able to touch this world in a unique way. And that's why God has blessed us here in Jesus' name. Say amen to that. Let's
Mantras For A Troubled Nation
SPEAKER_01do our mantras this morning on the screen. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Not by my own strength, not by my own power, but through Christ who strengthens me. And we declare this morning whatever it is that you're going through, whatever challenge you're going through, whatever challenge we are going through as a nation. Um, you know, yesterday was difficult. We saw the things that are happening. Sometimes you can wonder, oh God, we are here again. Will this ever change? Um, you know, let us not give up, brethren, for around our country. Let us continue declaring we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. Let us continue declaring God's peace in this nation that is possible, transformation, love, security. Um, let's go. Let's not give up. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. And I'm living on purpose, I am on schedule. I'm exactly where God wants me to be. And we added another one I am worthy by nature. We declare that I am wealthy by nature. It is in me. Wealth is inherent in me. I am worthy by nature. I don't have to struggle, I need just to get into the flow. I am worthy by nature. Same amen. A
Spiritual Power Means Letting Go
SPEAKER_01key truth that we remind ourselves, how in the physical world is measured by how much you can lift up, and in the spiritual world is measured by how much you can let go. Hallelujah. How much you can let go, how powerful this is. The more you can let go, the more powerful you get in the spiritual world. It's exactly the opposite. The people this world wants to accumulate, they want to accumulate, they want to accumulate, they want to accumulate. That's that's the that's the mindset. No, the in the spiritual world says, no, no, if you want more, let go, become uh, you know, let go, become allow things to flow through you. That's why we have committed ourselves in these 30 days to uh to understand how the spiritual world works because we are spiritual beings, so we need to understand how the things of the spirit work, how the spiritual world works, we need to know timing. For example, Elijah waited, he knew the hour of sacrifice, and he says, when that hour came, he stood up. So you need to know timing, the timing of things in the spiritual world, the time to say things, the time to keep quiet, the time to respond, the time to take a step, the timing of things in the spiritual world is very important. The timing, that's why we we've been programming ourselves here for the last 26 days. What do you do when you wake up in the morning before you do anything else? What do you do before you leave your house? Um, how do you set um your morning? How do you get started? That's why we have been doing this every single morning to understand how the spiritual world works. There's a timing for everything. There are some things that you do, you know, that this you must do every every single morning, and you be perfect about them because they affect the spiritual empowerment of the day. You it has it affects how that day unfolds. The way you begin is very important. And Elijah knew the timing. He says, When the hour of sacrifice is stood up, and he began to set up the altar. He knew the timing, began to settle the altar, set up the altar, clean and put things, arranged everything forever. And I was his thing, the presence of God came in. The fire flew, it leaked up the woods, everything, timing, timing. May the Lord help us, brethren, to understand timing. Timing many times we struggle because we don't understand timing. And we pray that these third days will have triggered something in you to dig deeper to understand the timing of things, uh, when to do what, um, that the Spirit of God will open up, will give us that advantage. Um, because we are living, we are spiritual beings, so we need to understand how the spiritual works. The time to talk, the time to keep quiet, you know, the time to respond, you know, the you know, timing. Hallelujah. Let me not get carried again here. Um, yeah. Abada's
Generosity And Seeking The Kingdom
SPEAKER_01mentality. It's Roman 15:10 says, give generously to them and do so without a grudging hand. Then, because of this, the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to. We are challenged in that day to live from a position of generosity. It is one thing that we have embedded, we have trying to case embedded in us, is that we're going to be living from a position of generosity, being generous and special to the poor around us, and the Lord gives a promise, and God is faithful. Uh, when he promises, he fulfills. Uh, he's not like a human being. People that um you know will promise things, um, they'll say, We'll do this, we'll do that, we'll do that, and and they don't do it, and they don't even even even get bothered about it. God is not like that, he is a truthful, he's a faithful God, he's a promise keeper. He's a promise keeper. And he says here that uh uh when we live from a position of generosity, he'll bless the work of our hands and everything that we put our hands on. Kid fastest this this day, Matthew 6 33. First is kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. This again the path to things. The pathway to God, blessing, the pathway to things is seeking Christ's kingdom and righteousness. It says, All these are things and will be given to you as well. And 1 Corinthians 2 9 says, However, as it is written, no eye has seen, no ear has heard, no human mind has conceived the things that God has prepared for those who love him. Say amen. That encourages us that you know God is not done with you yet. If you think he has done it, he's not done with you yet. Tell people to wait for the next version of you, they will not believe what God is going to do. And the secret is let us continue to love him, put him in the right place, and it shall be well with us in Jesus' name.
Changed Hearts And Testimony Culture
SPEAKER_011 Samuel 10, 6 to 10, the Spirit of the Lord will come powerfully upon you, and you will prophesy with them, and you'll be changed into a different person. How we pray, brethren. We have been asking the Lord will change us. This 30-day challenge will not be in vain. And as we have continued to seek him every single day, and as he delivers us to June the 30th, we are going to be different people. And even when we meet and testify, you will hear testimonies of how different we have become. That when we meet and greet, Hallow, praise the Lord, hallelujah! And now we begin to testify. Um, and we pray that that will be restored. You know, the days of testimonies where you know you meet each other and you greet and you start giving a testimony. And there are beautiful days when testimonies were part of the service, when people give true testimonies of what God is doing in their life, and say, Oh my brother, you don't know. I have changed, I'm not the same anymore. And that's what happens when the Spirit of God comes upon your life. The things that you used to struggle with, things that were so difficult, uh, they become natural. Why? We have been changed into a different person. And we pray that testimonies become aware of our lives. That when we meet and we greet, we have a chance of, hey, in the way, God has been good to me. And look what he's doing. I used to, I was believing God for this, and look, he has come through for me. I'm not struggling with this anymore. This struggle to uh I was struggling with bitterness, and the Lord has delivered me from that. I've been struggling with this habit, and now I'm done. As we're doing the habit elevation, I'm delivered from it. Um we pray that that will be established back into the house of God uh that we'll be able to testify uh when we meet, and then we'll be different people. The Bible says as Saul turned to leave someone, God changed Saul's heart. And all these signs we have fulfilled that day became started to prophesy, his heart was changed, and these 30 days we have been trusting God that is going to change us. There's nothing more powerful than a changed heart. Once a heart has gotten changed, it's powerful, it's unstoppable. And that's our prayer this morning that the Spirit of God will come upon you, you'll be changed. You live these 30 days a completely different person than who you used to be. Hallelujah. The Lord help us in Jesus' name.
Reconnect With God Through Nature
SPEAKER_01Remember to connect with God. Talked about it yesterday. Um, there was this something divine when you just go and spend time in the outside, in the you know, in the countryside, in the mountain. Um in fact, someone was trying to give you a scientific explain saying if you live next to a mountain, there's something the mountain releases to you every day, and you are different, you know, your approach is different, you look at things differently. Um and we need to do more of that, we need to be deliberate. You know, one of these days, get on, get on a matatu and go in. We have Mount Kenya just next day, um, you know, um, just there, and it's uh two hours you'll be in Mount Kenya and you can go there and walk the trail and connect with nature. Um go and walk around. Um, there are many places. You don't have to go to Mount Kenya is far, but there are many places where you can just be deliberate about you and connecting with God, and you'll see how different uh you are. You must have, you know, you you every time you connect with nature, you know, maybe those who live in Mombasa, you have to see the um that's why sometimes maybe I don't know, that's my own theory. When the people from Nairobi, when who are surrounded by concrete, you know, concrete and vehicles and horns, and they go to Mombasa, they can't understand why Mombasa people are so calm. You are running, running. They are near the ocean. There's something about anyway, that's my own theory. I'm just saying that there's something about the ocean that changes you, that slows you down, that makes you realize, ah, you are very you are not alone here. There are bigger things here. And that's why when upcountry people go to Mombasa, they are shocked. Mombasa people are so relaxed and they are calm, and you wonder what happened here? The environment, the environment, the environment. Hallelujah. Let's take care of our bodies. It's our license to be here on earth. I'm just trying to motivate most of you to get on to out of Nairobi and into the cities and in the countryside. There's something very spiritual. It calms you down, it changes your language, it turns you down. If you're having those losing it, if you're losing it, deduct yourself yourself. You're out and calm. You find yourself getting calmer and calmer and calmer. Uh, get out of the city and out there into the countryside and just see how how great it is. Um, that's why even coming to the cream center tonight, those are coming for prayers, it's it's is it's nourishing. That's why we love that place. It's green and plants and everything. You cannot come to the cream center and go back the same. Just even your being there itself is refreshing, it's nourishing. Um, and um, yeah, look forward to that. So, purpose will be a blessing to someone today, and it's only the one that cannot pay you back. Say amen to that. Brethren,
Are You Ready For Your Miracle
SPEAKER_01let's dive into today's teaching. Day 26. Um, this is what we have covered so far. I've been just been adding it there by there, one after the other. We have covered so much uh things. Our lives, I believe, are getting transformed. We have healed, we understand meditation, we understand prayer, a bit of elevation. Yesterday we talked about getting your umbrella ready, um, you know, for your dream life. Do you have what it takes if God blessed you with a million, millions of shillings or whatever? Are you ready for it? Do you even know? Do you have a bank account that you can invest? Um, are you ready? You you know, you do you have a passport? Do you have a driving license? You're believing God for a car. Do you have a driving license? Do you know how to drive? Are you ready for your miracle? And we said, it's a it's a very nice balance you need to have. And when you learn to balance that with God, you move forward. And we said, hey, some of us we may need to spend some time and look at the things that we need to do to get ourselves ready for what God wants to do for us. Prepare yourself. God is ready to send you, He's ready to uh to minister, to to bless you in requests. And today we're diving into a very, very important thing: the liberated mind.
The Liberated Mind And Hidden Beliefs
SPEAKER_01The liberated mind is our topic for today. Uh, before we go into prayer, the liberated mind. Then um, why do we do what we do? Why do we do what we do? Um, you may have asked that question a number of times. Why do I do what I do? Uh, Paul actually himself uh did a little that he said, What I want to do, I don't do, and what I don't want to do is what I end up doing. And he kept pondering that question, and he says, Woe unto me. Um, you know, he continues along along those lines. But you you always ask, why do we do what we do? Today, we want to deal with what makes us do what we do, which is actually hidden beliefs, dealing with hidden beliefs. Where do they come from? Um, why where do beliefs come from? You know, they say that first of all, beliefs come from the environment we grew in. The environment that we grew in is very powerful. As you are growing up, and especially in your first seven years of your life, they say, in from year one to year seven, we are just receiving. We have no immunity to beliefs. We just receive. We are, you know, we are formed, we take anything into our lives between year one and year seven, we are completely indefensible. And that's why there's always been an argument that the first seven years of your child's life, you need to spend time with them, influencing them, because at that time, that's when character is formed, that's when beliefs are bent. So if the first seven years of your child's life is spent in the hands of somebody, then they will put their, you know, their beliefs in that child. And so the first seven years are very crucial when we are bringing up our children. Uh, that's when you know a lot of beliefs are are formed. We get beliefs on money. Very early, there are beliefs around money that have been embedded in that. You have a belief around church. Um, you know, you have beliefs on on what you call sexism, female, male, uh you are you are told this is how a girl behaves, this is how a man behaves. All those things are inculcated in us very, very early in our and then we grow with them. And when we are finally old or at later ages, it becomes natural. Without it, it happens without thinking because they are now embedded deep in us. Religion is another is another thing that's powerful and it's built. Um that's why you know people, you are me. I was born a Catholic, I was born this, I was born a Muslim, I was born this, because you grew up in that in that setup. We have fuse on race, black and white. There has been a big, big issue where you some races feel they are more superior than others. Or if you know, if you are this race, you believe that you are you know more superior than everybody else. And you know, if you are this race, you believe you are inferior. Those are all you know things that we have been able to pick along the way in our country. We are dealing with the tribalism, um, you know, where you believe someone from your fellow tribe um, you know, can do something for you. It's these are things that have been built up as we grew, as we as we grew up, and all these things they come to um the the the impact our lives greatly. Um that's why when you say I cannot do this, where did you get that one from? You you know, we some beliefs are disempowering, um, they are limited, we call them limiting beliefs, and uh some of them they are they can be unconscious, they we they get them so embedded in us that we actually do without without thinking. And so when Paul stands up and he says, How do I do what I don't want to do? And what I don't want to do is what I end up doing, is exactly that. We've got those embedded beliefs that have come in, and they can come from also from the relationships around us. That's why the Bible talks about character, about your um uh your friends, those you hang around with, they have huge impact on who you become. Um, they can impact your careers, they can do very many things. Um, and there are a lot of beliefs that are not our friends. A lot of beliefs today that are not our friends. And so this lesson today is basically built around knowing you can actually change that, you can change it the same way that that belief was built. You can also change it and get around and get delivered from that and begin to believe differently, and then there you end up in a different in a different place. So, what is
Renewing The Mind With Scripture
SPEAKER_01a belief? A belief is a thought with confidence, you know. Any thought, once you it everything begins with that thought, how you think something, huh? Then you attach confidence in it. Once you attach confidence in it, it moves from being a thought, it becomes a belief. Once it gets a belief, it gets embedded in your heart of hearts, and it begins to program you, it begins to impact you, and that's why they say it's not what you don't know that kills you, but what you don't know, you don't know. That's good English, but basically, it's what is killing us is many many times wrong. Beliefs you have a belief that is wrong, but you believe it so much, it's controlling your life, but it's a wrong belief. As of this morning, we pray that the Lord. Will challenge us around really looking at our belief system. In Romans chapter 12, verses 1 to 2, says, Therefore, I ask you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God. This is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. This term renewing that Paul makes reference to here. He said, We can renew our mind. Be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Renewing, rethinking. Why do I believe that? Where did that come from? Being conscious about what you believe. He said, then if we can renew our minds, then we'll be able to test and approve what God's will is. What is God's will? Basically, we are saying our perfect dream life will unfold. Because when we live, approve God's will, which is good and blessing and perfect, means we begin to live our dream life. That means if we can renew our minds, rethink, refresh our minds, we can begin walking towards our dream life. We can begin to do the things that actually God wanted us to do. We can position ourselves to go in and live for the purposes that God has in our mind, in has asked for us, renewing our mind. And in Mark chapter 9, we don't have time to read it, but I like verse 23, where which says, But if you can't say Jesus, everything is possible for one who believes. Everything, everything is possible for one who believes. That's how powerful beliefs are, because once it says anything, everything is possible for for him that uh believes. So we we we we need we pray that the Lord will help us just to understand that we can actually change uh these belief systems. Um, in verse 24, the the boy's father actually said, God help me overcome my unbelief. And sometimes that may be the prayer that we need to make. That Lord, God help me overcome my unbelief. I need um fuel, I don't believe enough. Help me overcome my unbelief. The Bible says Jesus responded, he commanded, he took the boy's hand, lifted him to his feet, stood up, drove the day, the demon out, and the boy was completely uh was completely delivered. Brothers and sisters, belief is so so powerful. So, how do we change this?
Rewrite Limiting Beliefs With Awareness
SPEAKER_01How do we change this? And this is the subject of our discussion today. Number one, you need to be aware of those limiting beliefs. You need to prayerfully begin to any any any fruit that you're seeing coming from you, begin to ask, where does this come from? Especially anything that you don't like, any habit, any talk, anything that is not good for you. When you notice it in your life, why am I behaving like this? Like Paul asked that question. Why am I doing what I don't want to do? Why am I like this? Why do I come out so negative? Why do I chase away friends? I have good relationships, they come into my life, but within two, three months, I've fruked them, they have gone. I'm back again to squeeze. I can never keep friends, I can never keep relationships, I can never keep a job, I can never fit in a group. After a short time, I'm out again, I'm having conflicts, I'm dealing with you know, conflict after conflict. All these things, when you see them manifesting in your life, run to number one. I we need to dig deeper and say why I am like this. And when you analyze, when you dig deeper, you realize there's something hidden in me that I need to deal with. And there's where we need the Spirit of God to reveal to you. That's why we pray, that's why the keshas are powerful. Because when we go to a kesha, we have a whole hour of just being in God's presence, focusing on yourself. Um, you know, before you know you have adequate time to review, to reflect. So the first thing is to be um is to be able to be aware of it. Then the second thing, a way of dealing with it is um rewriting it. Rewriting. When we when you win by rewriting is uh no matter when you rewrite, we use the same, we need to use the word those three pieces powerful, positive, present tense. You need to rewrite that belief. Rewriting means attaching new confidence, attaching new confidence to it. Um, really, you ask yourself, really, is that true? And reattaching new confidence in that belief, saying, Why do I believe that? And I will I just give you a few examples here. So, Mary, for example, you may have in the in in the maybe big beginning, you may have a belief that the world is unfair. The world is unfair, and you can see the world is unfair. This world is unfair, and and you believe it. You believe this world is unfair, um, you know, you are and as long as you believe the world is unfair, you'll see that manifesting in your life. So when you talk about uh um attaching, um um rewriting, you are like, is it really true? The world is unfair, really? And when you reflect on the things that are happening, is it true that the world is unfair? Or you can be believing that you are a victim, you feel that you are a victim of circumstances. Um you you you can feel like maybe you can't lead. You believe that no, I can't lead because I'm a woman, or I'm because of this, or because of this, I can't lead. That's a belief. You can be believing that others are superior. Deep in your mind, you believe that you are you're always down there, other people are superior. And you should ask yourself where did that come from? Why? Why do I believe that? And is that true? You attach a new confidence. You can be thinking that um I'm born poor. You know, you have a belief that oh, I was born poor, and therefore this is my life, this is my take on it. Really? You need to rewrite that again, attach new confidence, confront it and say, no, no, no, based on now what you know, based on God's word, based on input that you are receiving. Um, maybe you can you have a belief that people don't like me. People don't like me. Why? Where did that come from? Who say that people don't like you? You confront that and deal with it, and then the manifestations you see them coming to uh you know to end. So, how do you transcend those limiting beliefs?
Reframe And Rethink For Freedom
SPEAKER_01Rewrite them. Number another way of doing them is and they are all three R's, by the way, are like three, you know, three R's, three Ps. So rewrite number two is reframe them. For example, um, um, maybe you are challenged with height. There are people who are challenged with height, and and so you have been thinking because I'm short, um, maybe like people don't like me, or there's something things I cannot do, and you you have a big issue. You feel intimidated by people who are bigger and taller. But when you talk about reframing, you say I am short, um I'm short, and therefore I'm unique, and I'm able to do unique things. You you are confronting the same same thing but looking at it in a different way, you are reframing it. There are a lot of we have had a lot of people, you know, migrating, for example, to Africa, running to Europe and all these other parts of the world because we believe Europe is better. And say, why? Who told you that? Who told you that you know the Western world is better, that there's better quality of life there? Who say, how do you reframe that? You can be saying, No, no, no, I'm actually born in Africa, therefore, we have unique advantages here. We have great weather, great amazing place. We don't deal with all these things that the Western world is dealing with. So you say, Yeah, I'm born in Africa, therefore, I have a unique advantage. So you realize being born in Africa is no longer a disadvantage, it's something actually powerful. That is what I'm saying, reframing. And you can reframe what you believe until you deal with it and kill it completely, and you get liberated, you're liberating your mind. And remember, that's why God's word is so so powerful because it builds you, it helps you to do that reframing. The last one is rethinking, rethinking it, and when it comes to rethinking, you are saying, ah, is it really true? For example, um, maybe you have a belief that if you're honest, you can't make money. Oh, yeah, you can't make money in even this country, this country, if you're honest, you can never make money. So that could be a belief that a lot of people hold. But when we begin to rethink, really, because we want to destroy that that that belief. What who made you what made you believe this? You ask yourself, why who made you believe that if you're honest, you cannot make this kind of money in this country? Where? What made you believe this? Maybe you you can then look at it and say, research and and find that there are people who are enjoying life. Uh, that the people that are actually enjoying life are the ones who have made money honestly. That those who do not make money honestly are actually not enjoying life. They are in court, they are after one thing after the other, they made the money, but it was not through honesty, so they are not enjoying it. So you rethink. You may make money dishonestly, but you're never going to enjoy it. You are going to be fighting over it. But those who make their money honestly, they are enjoying it. You may not, you know, they are they are they enjoy it. So you again you are destroying that belief. Um, again, you can you can that once you destroy it, then you can say, What an opportunity to be honest and to be rich. Now, the same thing that was becoming a problem. Now you have destroyed it through looking at it, rethinking it. And brethren, if we can do this, we can rethink a lot of the beliefs that we have, we can be freed, we can live very powerfully, and there's you can now begin to see the connection because this rewriting, reframing, rethinking goes hand in hand with what we talked about. I think it was day three, the power of prayer and meditation. When you are now moving into meditation, you are read writing, you take God's word. Um, you know, God's word comes into your heart, you read God's word, then you go into meditation and you start focusing on it. You are dealing with maybe a belief that you have, and you meditate over God's word over and over, meditating on God's word, looking at it in different directions. What are you doing? You are taking that word from being the written word, you are converting it into a word that you believe deep into your heart, and then it begins to control you. So I would say meditation is one of the most powerful tools of taking God's word from it being the written word or being the spoken word and putting it right into your heart of hearts, where it becomes something you believe on. You believe. And once you begin to believe it, you begin to live it. It changes you, you become a different person. Because you speak it, you act it, it changes your character, it changes anything. And no wonder the enemy hates it. No wonder the enemy wants us to be harassed from one place, never have time to meditate, because we can hear the word, we can receive the word, we can read the word. But if we are not spending time in meditation, reprogramming, getting that word from being the spoken word or being being the written word or the read word and writing it deep in our hearts so that it begins to control us. That's how we deal with beliefs, really, you know, rewriting them, reframing, rethinking so that inside our hearts, every belief that we have aligns with God's word. Then we become powerful, become unstoppable. Brethren, we can deal with those limiting beliefs and become liberated to be different and go and serve God in power and in might. Lord bless you. This is an exercise there
Exercise To Break Old Beliefs
SPEAKER_01for you. Create a list of self-limiting beliefs. Prayerfully go through the process of rewriting, reframing, rethinking each one of them and destroy all of it so that we become people that align our thinking with God's word. Please rewrite, reframe, rethink everything that is happening in your life, and make sure that uh you redealing, we confront it and get liberated. That's what we call the liberated mind. Get liberated to be woman.
