GOD’S GOODNESS IS POURING DOWN ON YOU!

by Silvia Lia Leigh, MD
“Afterward the children of Israel shall return and seek the Lord their God and David their king. They shall fear the Lord and His goodness in the latter days” (Hos 3:5)
 
PROPHETIC WORD (04-11-18)
In these last days, the darkness is getting darker for the children of darkness! They suffering will increase. In the same time, the light shines brighter on the children of God!
 
God’s favor on you shall increase! It shall be evident with signs following! God will pour His ‘heavy duty’ Goodness upon you! You will seek God and you shall find Him! No more frustration! No more regrets! From this day on, you will worship God like David worshiped God! You will understand the authority of the Kingdom of God and you shall walk in it. The world behind you! The Cross before you! God’s joy is your strength! You will make decrees and God will confirm them for these are in line with His promises! You seat in the heavenly places with Christ! From on high, you shall look down and see your big problems becoming smaller and smaller. Until they disappear! The desert shall be replaced with the garden! Watch out for God’s goodness coming to you! There shall be no ‘mistake address’! This is the time for supernatural joy supplied to those who’ve suffered! There is a lifting for the oppressed! No man, no devil can stop it! God will ’embarrass you’ with His acts of Goodness. You will not be able to explain the goodness and the favor of God in your life. Because it will be too much for words. You shall testify to the Greater One who lives in you! The Hope of Glory is sealing your testimony! I am sorry for your enemies. They’ve lost the wicked battle against you! God is on your side and His victory is decreed! The goodness of God is pouring down on you, starting now…You will fear God! You will kneel down, prostrate and worship God! For there is nothing else to do… Excess love! Overflow Goodness! In Jesus;’ name! Thank You Abba Father! Glory to God!

WHEN I AM WEAK, THEN I AM STRONG!

“I know that I can make it!
I know that I can stand!
No matter what may come my way…
My life is in Your hands! Jesus!”

BREAD WINNER

by Silvia Lia Leigh, MD

“Give us today our daily bread…” (Matt 6:11)
Bread is basic. Bread is food. Bread is life. There is natural bread and spiritual bread. We have to humble ourselves to pray for bread on the table. We can never graduate from the level of this request. This prayer is not for the homeless sleeping under the bridge. It is for us all. Jesus commands us to ask daily for the provision of food. Each time I see a slice of bread (white or brown, dry or soft) I should see a point of contact with heaven and a fresh reason to worship God, the Provider of all good things. Jesus did not say pray for cake or for salad. Just for bread! Do not pray for ‘my bread’ but for ‘our bread,’ enough to supply the needs of the family and for all who do not believe in prayer but want food to eat. God always gives more than we ask. He is the most generous Person.

If I eat bread without prayer and without gratefulness I am a thief. If the thief is caught, he is to pay seven times more; sometimes this may mean all his property in his house. The lesson is that without prayer for daily bread, without acknowledging God as your ‘Bread Winner’ you are in serious danger of sudden poverty (PV 6: 30, 31). Let us make a good habit to pray and never take food for granted. Especially the bread!!! The crumbs under the table healed a stranger’s daughter from an incurable disease! (Matt 15: 21-28). Bread of Life, I worship You!

In Christ I declare:
Jesus Christ is my ‘Bread Winner.’ I am grateful for the supply He gives me. I trust that I will be renewed in my spirit. I believe that even the dry bread will taste good in my mouth.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen!

MY ENEMY IS CRIPPLED AND BURNT!

by Silvia Lia Leigh, MD

‘Then the Lord said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them. By this time tomorrow I will hand all of them over to Israel as dead men. Then you must cripple their horses and burn their chariots’ (Josh 11:6)
Joshua was attacked by a group of pagan kings under the leadership of Jabin, King of Hazor. These kings and their armies were very well trained and equipped; they had horses and chariots. Their combined army was ‘huge and numerous as the sand on the sea shore.’ But Joshua prayed and God answered, telling him not to be afraid by what he sees. God promises that He will weaken the enemy; that He will hand the thousands of pagan soldiers to Israel ‘as dead men’ and they should kill them all. The horses of the enemy should be ‘hamstrung’ and the chariots burnt with fire. To hamstring a horse means to cripple it by cutting the leg tendons. The result is that the horses will limp and be unable to run. They could use the horses for labor, to pull a plough for example, but never again in war. This command to cripple the horses sounds harsh to us but it is because God wants us to give Him all the glory for every victory in war. Chariots and horses represent the power of the flesh and the boast of pride. That has to die! God is jealous for His glory! God refuses to allow His people to learn the ways of the world and the strategy of religious pride. The kings in Israel were to be known as men of God, reading their Bibles. God forbade them to accumulate great numbers of horses, gold, or wives. They were to symbolize Christ, whose strength was always in His intimate relationship with the Father.

In Christ I declare:
I am a child of God! I am a soldier for Christ! I willingly enrolled in the army of the Living God! I went to war under the banner of Jehovah Nissi and I won the victory! By faith in God; I was weak, but I became strong; I was confused, but I became focused; I was afraid but I became bold; I was foolish but I became wise and prudent; I was shy but I now boldly proclaim His Word and sing His praises! My enemies persecuted, hated, slandered, attacked and tried to destroy my testimony, but they have lost completely! My enemies are now weak, confused, afraid, lonely, foolish, disgraced, crippled and burnt! My trust is not in things, people, money or positions. My trust is in the Lord Almighty! I do not boast in my wisdom, my wealth or my strength, but I boast that I really know God, His name and His Righteousness!
In Jesus’ name,
Amen!

RAINING SEASON (BLESSINGS) IN EFFURUN

by Silvia Lia Leigh, MD

This is a picture I took yesterday from my balcony, in Effurun/ Warri, Nigeria. It is now raining season. Can you see the beauty of God’s creation? Can you see the sky? It is like a painting! Glory!

Nigeria is my adopted country. I live here since 1980. This is my observation… Many Nigerians hate their country and want to go abroad, anywhere… so far is ‘abroad’… to find ‘greener pastures’. They think that God has forgotten Nigeria. They have lost hope for a change. Look at this picture… what do you see? This glimpse of the sky over us here in Effurun is a reminder that God is everywhere. He is the Omnipotent God! This is not ‘a second hand’ sky! This is not ‘a faded’ glory!!! I know that there are problems. But I also know that God is bigger than all the problems!

This picture is a reminder that God is in Nigeria and that God loves this country, I live here and I am a witness to His presence and to His love for the people. Let’s praise the only Living God! Let’s acknowledge His presence in our midst! Make some noise my dear Nigerian brethren!

“O Lord, our Lord,
How excellent is Your name in all the earth,
Who have set Your glory above the heavens!” (Ps 8:1)

THE BEST FOR THE LAST

by Silvia Lia Leigh, MD
‘You saved the best until now’ (Jn 2: 10)
All marriages, no matter how strong, will eventually ‘finish’ their wine of joy and passion and end up ‘dry’: no hatred, no love, just ‘water- surviving’ arrangement. There is a moment when you discover that all the love has been exhausted on daily errands and routine of life. There is a moment when fear will grip the heart that your secret failure will become public display; ‘They have no more wine…’
 
That place of loneliness and shame is the moment for the true friend to step in and help. The best marriage counselors are not found seated at the table waiting to be served. They are found in the background among the servants who know the secret of brewing the miracle of supernatural love that never dies. Once you taste from the latter wine, once you allow God to love your spouse through your heart, your marriage will receive the stamp of heaven and will survive even death. Never forget the power of the latter rain! That is where the glory dwells!
 
In Christ I declare:
My marriage belongs to God! Jesus is the Lord of my marriage, the Red Cord that can never be broken! I will never lose hope in my marriage for my spouse is a gift from God and God never makes mistakes! My marriage shall last until death will ‘part’ us! Nothing else will be able to destroy it before death! I hate divorce! Like wine, my marriage shall be better as we get older! Holy romance shall always bubble in my marriage! The best is yet to come!
In Jesus’ name,
Amen!

HOLY SPEED

by Silvia Lia Leigh, MD

“I am the Lord! In its time, I will do this SWIFTLY!” (Is 60: 22)
There is acceleration in the Spirit Realm. God is moving and things change fast. There is reward for the humble and faithful.

In Christ I declare: 
This is the last night I will sleep in poverty and sorrow. Tomorrow I will move to another LEVEL, to another PLACE. This is the last time that I see the moon’s light from between the bars of iron. I will never have to envy another. My natural gifts are redeemed and changed into that which pleases the Spirit. I will never feel like a visitor on this planet for it belongs to me and my descendants. I believe it! All things are mine in Christ. My Father in Heaven has (re-) planted me; watered me with His Word; touched me with the breeze of His Spirit, so that I may learn to sing, to respond to His calling, to appreciate the stillness and power of His presence… There is a fragrance of revival… There is the sound of increase of that which is holy… God is working… God is planting… None can stop it. All the glory to Jehovah!
In Jesus’ name,
Amen!
