Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 30/6/2020 Text: Matthew 7:1 (New Living Translation) Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. I believe the text is self-explanatory as it can be. God never fashioned any man to act as the judge of men, only God Himself is qualified for that. To judge a person is to form an opinion about a person, come to a conclusion about such a person, and ultimately decide the fate or outcome of such a person's life. Jesus had to tell his listeners not to judge others because those who feel they are righteous (self-righteous) have the propensity to be judgemental about those they feel do not match up their standards. No human knows the heart and the end of another, hence, we lack the right capacity to judge others. To judge others is to bring one to condemnation. And even Jesus didn't condemn the worst of sinners that he encountered. Anyone can still change even at the point of death while on the cross. Stop being judgemental, stop seeing you

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 29/6/2020 Text: John 3:18-19 [18]“There is no judgment against anyone who believes in him. But anyone who does not believe in him has already been judged for not believing in God’s one and only Son. [19]And the judgment is based on this fact: God’s light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil. Many are quick to question why God will even think of judging the world even when He was the One who created it. Many even say the world is the way it is because that's how God wants it. Yet, they fail to recognize that God created man who was the primary guardian of the earth and all that happens in it with free will. Man willingly let go of this authority over the earth by deferring to the devil. We agree that genetic codes and materials are transferred from parent to child, yet, some refuse to accept that sin was also transferred down the bloodline of man as a result of Adam's sin. For God

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 27/6/2020 Text: Ecclesiastes 7:8 Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit. This morning's Spirit Breakfast might not be for everyone. I'm led to speak to a particular group of people. I'm led to encourage those who just started something: Maybe a ministry, a business, a family, a degree programme, a career, a project, you name it. I'm here to tell you by the Spirit of the Lord and according to the Word of God that the end is better. You might be facing difficulties now, you might be feeling discouraged at how events have turned, you might not have sufficient finance to back up the dream, but hold on, the end is better. In the beginning of creation, the world was a huge mess. Yet, when God was done it was better; it was good. Have patience, trust the process. You are going to face ups and downs but you'll eventually stand tall on the mountain. Through

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 26/6/2020 Text: Job 22:29 When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person. en men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person. Our anchor text is one of the well known verses in the book of Job. Many believers have quoted it, but not many practise what it teaches. Many just think it as one of those verses of encouragement. It is however more of an instruction than an encouragement. "When men are cast down" signifies that the situation around is not promising. In fact, the same situation others face around you is what you're also going through. The instruction is that in spite of such circumstances, your confession (what you say) about yourself should be contrary to the negative situations. So when men are cast down (including yourself on the physical), your confession should be that "there is lifting up". The next line

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 25/6/2020 Text: Proverbs 18:24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. In the 1994 Walts Disney's animated movie 'Aladin: The return of Jafar', the character Iago has an interesting line "Friend?! F-Friend is such a strong word. He's-he's more like an acquaintance!". When I first heard those lines I found them to be full of wisdom. How you might ask? Well, not everyone is supposed to be your friend, most people are better of as acquaintances. In truth, the word 'friend' is such a strong word that shouldn't be used to mean just anyone. Yes, I know the word 'friend' as well as the meaning has been trivialized these days; after all, some of us already have 5,000 'friends' on Facebook. But are they really friends? Friendship is a system God has put in place for man to thrive. Man wasn't designed to thrive in isolation but

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 24/6/2020 Text: Psalms 146:5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God: I'm just led to say a prayer this morning. May the Lord be your help. As you put your trust and hope in Him, may you never be put to shame. Men who felt your success laid in their hands and refused to help you will see that which God will help you accomplish and be surprised. Everything that has stolen your happiness be restored this morning. Your family shall be full of joy. This day and forever, you no longer achieve things by struggle but by Divine Help. All this I pray for you in Jesus name. Have a graced day...I see you having a breakthrough. It's a winning Wednesday for you. #SpiritBreakfast™ #WinningWednesday™ #PastorMuve™ #power #prayer #God #help #hope #happy

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 23/6/2020 Text: Numbers 14:6-9 [6]And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of them that searched the land, rent their clothes: [7]And they spake unto all the company of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it, is an exceeding good land. [8]If the LORD delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it us; a land which floweth with milk and honey. [9]Only rebel not ye against the LORD, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence is departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them not. In Numbers 13 we see that 10 out of the 12 spies Moses sent came back with an evil report. What made their report evil was that it was contrary to God's plan. They stated that they couldn't take the land because of the sons of Anak there. Joshua and Caleb, on the other hand, gave God's report. The promise of God to give them the land w

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 21/6/2020 Text: 2 Corinthians 4:7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. Nature has made it in such a way that treasures are hidden in the unlikeliest of places. Many of the world's natural resources are buried in the earth. Such resources need to be unearthed before they can be used. Therefore, when God decided to give unto man the greatest treasure of the gospel, he still placed it in earthen vessels (our bodies). Jesus came in an earthen vessel so that the gospel might be transmitted through Him. Any other vessel such as that of angels is not capable of carrying this great treasure of the gospel. By our spiritual rebirth, we now carry this treasure in our earthen vessels. We have only one lifetime to reveal this treasure to all of humanity. When we leave this earthen vessel behind via death, we no longer carry the treasure of the gospel. It is therefore important that we

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 20/6/2020 Text: Psalms 3:5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me. One of the daily miracles we experience is that of sleeping and waking up. A person who finds it difficult to sleep is considered to be suffering from a disorder. And when a person fails to wake up, such a person is either dead or in a coma. Yet, many of us sleep effortlessly at night (and some even in the day) and we find ourselves waking up every time. If you are sincere with yourself, you'll agree that you had no part in keeping yourself safe while you slept. You barely knew where your hands and legs were. Yet, every single day, we wake up and some of us at a specific time each day. This is just because God sustained us. Today, just appreciate God a little bit for His daily sustenance. Once that is removed, we are as dead as a doornail. Have a graced day... #SpiritBreakfast™ #SoothingSaturday™ #PastorMuve™ #power #God #sleep #wakeup #sustain

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 18/6/2020 Text: Psalms 126:1 When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream. It is said by some scholars that psalm 126 was written during the second return of the captives from Babylon led by Ezra in 458 B.C as seen in Ezra chapters 7-10. Hence, it was not just an initial turning or returning of the captives, it was the second of the initial turning of the captives as led by Zerubbabel that happened in 538 B.C which was recorded in Ezra chapters 1-6. The fact that God caused it to happen on two separate occasions seemed unreal to the people. To those who had returned initially thinking they would be the only ones and for those who returned later to be reunited with the initial returnees. It was too good to be true so it looked like a dream. However, when the bewilderment was replaced with acknowledgement of reality, the composer of this Psalm out of faith based on these two separate turnings was able to ask for ano

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 17/6/2020 Text: John 17:11,21 [11]And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. [21]That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.  Chapter 17 of the book of John contains Jesus' profound prayer to the Father. Many scholars have actually referred to this as the Lord's prayer instead of the model prayer which is called the same name in Matthew 6. In this prayer, we discovered how earnestly Jesus prayed for His disciples and the global church that would be instituted after the coming of the Holy Spirit. One of the key elements of His prayer was the unity of the church. He asked that the Father make the disciples (Church) one. This oneness is to be an actual replication of the Oneness of the Godhead.

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 16/6/2020. Text: Luke 1:34,37-38 [34]Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? [37]For with God nothing shall be impossible. [38]And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her. Impossibility doesn't exist with God. Impossibility is a word that isn't found in God's dictionary and vocabulary.  Man faces impossibilities because of our limitations as created beings. The Creator has none of such.  For man to step into that realm where impossibilities cease to be a thing, man must align himself with the Creator. It is agreement (believe) with the possibility nature of God that is revealed by the Words He speaks.  This agreement will also spur man into taking corresponding action based on that which he has now agreed to from God. Mary was able to conceive and birth Jesus despite it was naturally impossible. She asked in

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 15/6/2020 Text: Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. A believer's life should be accompanied with rejoicing. We are encouraged to rejoice always. Our rejoicing is not dependent on current situations and circumstances. When the Apostle Paul wrote the letter to the Phillipians, He was chained up in prison. Yet, he kept a joyful disposition. Our rejoicing depends on the infallibility and faithfulness of our God. It is an understanding that despite all, our God is still with us. Rejoicing is not man-made. We don't force ourselves to rejoice. It is a product of the fruit of the Spirit called 'Joy'. A child of God who allows the inward workings of the Holy Spirit will find themselves rejoicing even in the most threatening of challenges. Rejoicing is an understanding that you're seated far above all things that seem to beset you and with the eyes of the Omniscient One, you've seen your victory alre

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 13/6/2020 Text: Exodus 12:35-36 [35]And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: [36]And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians. So many across the globe have written the year 2020 off. With so much that has happened in the past months, many aren't optimistic about the remaining months. No doubt the past few months have been rough, however, we shouldn't lose our expectations or positivity. The remaining months is enough time to still achieve your goals for the year. New achievements can still be attained. If the Israelites could acquire enough wealth for the foundational wealth of a nation in one night, the remaining 6 months and some days is more than enough for you. Don't lose faith, keep hope alive, work hard despite to

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 12/6/2020 Text: Philippians 4:11-13 (Amplified Bible) [11]Not that I am implying that I was in any personal want, for I have learned how to be content (satisfied to the point where I am not disturbed or disquieted) in whatever state I am. [12]I know how to be abased and live humbly in straitened circumstances, and I know also how to enjoy plenty and live in abundance. I have learned in any and all circumstances the secret of facing every situation, whether well-fed or going hungry, having a sufficiency and enough to spare or going without and being in want. [13]I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christ's sufficiency]. As much as we believe that things will work out in a favour always, there are times when we find ourselves in situations that don't meet our expectations. Suffice to say, sometimes these circ

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 11/6/2020 Text: Acts 20:22-24 (Amplified Bible) [22]And now, you see, I am going to Jerusalem, bound by the [Holy] Spirit and obligated and compelled by the [convictions of my own] spirit, not knowing what will befall me there– [23]Except that the Holy Spirit clearly and emphatically affirms to me in city after city that imprisonment and suffering await me. [24]But none of these things move me; neither do I esteem my life dear to myself, if only I may finish my course with joy and the ministry which I have obtained from [which was entrusted to me by] the Lord Jesus, faithfully to attest to the good news (Gospel) of God's grace (His unmerited favor, spiritual blessing, and mercy). Eternal circumstances and situations are powerful influences that can alter a person's disposition. When things seem to be going sideways, when things don't fall into your projected plan, when unforseen events occur, they have the capacity to change our outlook.

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 10/6/2020 Text: Philippians 3:12-14 (New Living Translation) [12]I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me. [13]No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, [14]I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us. One of the greatest hindrance to any kind of progress is dwelling on the past. Refusal to let go of events that occurred yesterday can hinder today's progress. Constant reflection on past failures as well as successes are emotional baggage that paralyse forward motion. Reflecting on past failures is something many have overcome this. However, reflecting on past success is a subtle kind of hindrance that many fail to take cog

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 9/6/2020 Text: Colossians 4:2 Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving; One of the reasons most prayers are not answered is because they aren't backed up or watched with thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is the seal of confirmation on our prayers that takes it straight to the throne room of God. Thanksgiving is not a thing done after answer to prayer comes or once in a while. Thanksgiving is a state of being of the believer. Thanksgiving is an understanding that the prayers offered are already answered. Any request made without thanksgiving lacks the appropriate power to break through first and second heavens to reach third heaven. Thanksgiving must be made with every act of prayer. Philippians 4:6: Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. You give thanks before you pray, you give thanks while you pray, you give thanks after you've praye

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 8/6/2020 Text: Isaiah 55:8-9 (New Living Translation) [8]“My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the lord. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. [9]For just as the heavens are higher than the earth,  so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts. One of the greatest folly of man is the thought of being able to understand and comprehend the thoughts, ways, and acts of God. Many feel that God can be understood by logical, deductive, and empirical reasoning. The fault and shortcoming in this is that the human brain as well developed as it lacks the adequate empirical tool for such quantitative and qualitative analysis. No human known tool has the capacity to make sure experiments feasible. It's just like asking an ant to fully analyse, comprehend, and define the thoughts, ways, and actions of a man. Well, it's almost like because God is way higher than we can ever imagine. The my

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 6/6/2020 Text: John 14:6 [6]Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. If I told you that irrespective of any road you take you'll end up in Abuja, what would you think of me? What if I told you that starting from the road you're on now, you can follow it all the way to New York, won't you consider me delirious? I bet you would right? But isn't that what many these days are believing? They say all roads lead to God. All the religions of the world will eventually lead man to God. Why do some believe that all roads can't lead you to a particular geographical location, yet they believe that all religions (ways) will lead one to God's Spiritual location? Isn't this hypocritical? As vast as the sky is, planes have flight routes. They don't just fly as they please. The spiritual realm is infinitely vast than the sky we see above us. Therefore, isn't it righ

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 5/6/2020 Text: 2 Timothy 2:1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. Grace has been said to mean God's riches at Christ's Expense. Therefore, all that God has is now available to us as a result of the sacrifice of Jesus. More than ever believers need to be strong in the grace (spiritual release) found in Jesus Christ. To be strong in grace means to be strengthened, encouraged and comforted in the fact that we have unlimited supply and access in God. It is having the consciousness that all that is needed for life and godliness has been made available as a product of God's power since we know His son. (2 Peter 1:3) To be strong in grace is to have a strong confidence in the finished work of Jesus on the cross as it relates to our spiritual as well as physical necessities. As Paul encouraged Timothy, I encourage you today to be strong in grace. Spiritual and physical blessings are your divine inheritance a

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 4/6/2020 Text: Genesis 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. The highest form of God's interaction with man is His spoken word. Nothing changes until He speaks. God's Word is that which acts upon a body in a state of rest to grant it motion. His appearance, His visage, His form might cause in us a sense of awe when we behold Him, but it is that which He says that transforms us. No Divine manifestation is higher than God's Word. So for Jesus to have preeminence over all, He was incarnated also as the Word of God. The Bible as we have it today is a compendium of what God has been saying to man throughout the ages and what will be said. Hence, the Words contained within are the most important piece of information in all of mankind's history. It is our responsibility to study and understand that which God is saying at every stage in man's history and development. As I look upon the events unfolding in the

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 3/6/2020 Text: 1 John 3:17 (New Living Translation) If someone has enough money to live well and sees a brother or sister in need but shows no compassion—how can God’s love be in that person? Compassion is defined as deep awareness of the suffering of another, coupled with the wish to relieve it. Compassion is that which God has put inside humanity to help us understand the plight of others. Sadly, many have shut up their bowels of compassion. When you see someone in need and you refuse to understand their situation and render help, you are shutting up your bowels of compassion. If we look around us critically, we would discover that there are people in serious need. There are many suffering as a result of lack. At the same time, we have many who have the means to help but do nothing. Jesus while He walked on Earth was always moved with compassion towards those he encountered. Compassion was a vital show of His love towards the people. Love is exp

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 2/6/2020 Text: Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. To serve the Lord has never been forced upon anyone. Serving the Lord has always been a choice. God made man as free will beings with the ability to make their own choices and decisions. Joshua spoke to Israel and gave them options; serve the Lord or the gods of the Amorites. If you feel serving the Lord is evil or foolish you can choose to serve whatever you want. The same options still stand today. With so many being angry at God or being confused as to the events unfolding on the Earth. There's still a choice to make. Will you drag God and forsake the Creator or you choose to serve Him for who He is? Moses also gave Israel the same choice i

Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 1/6/2020 Text: Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Being blessed is a primary divine release upon humanity. In other words, you are blessed by design. To be blessed is to have God's permission to thrive and succeed. It is God's seal upon you to excel in all you do. Furthermore, those who are seed of Abraham also enjoy another level of blessedness based on divine covenant. (Galatians 3:29) All believers in Jesus Christ have been made partakers of the covenant which Abraham enjoyed and we are now Abraham's seed by adoption. (Galatians 3:14) Therefore, you are blessed by design and blessed by covenant. You are blessed and not cursed. In this 6th month of 2020, I redeclare and redecree that you are blessed. Walk in the bl
