91 Days of Victory – Day 59 (2026/04/27)

 

But as for me, I will sing about your power. Each morning I will sing with joy about your unfailing love. For you have been my refuge, a place of safety when I am in distress. Today I just want to bring all the glory and all the praise to our Lord and God who so lovingly took all our sin to the cross and by His stripes we are healed. In this world we can try and satisfy our needs through material and carnal solutions, but we will never have peace and content until we put Jesus first and allow the Holy Spirit to be our comforter and our guide. Worldy things are a bottomless pit that will never satisfy but in God we find true peace and fulfilment and when He is first, we will also have all else we need. The only difference is that those material and carnal things will not dominate us because God is our priority and we put Him first and then He is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us. Therefore, we should seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to us.  Now remember there is a first in this scripture and then a second. First seek the kingdom (give God first place in your daily schedule, career, and family) then all these things (all that we need) will be added. This is not just a nice scripture, it is a do with a result (a promise). Put God first and the rest is added. My dear friend, that is why we should sing and rejoice of His power and His unfailing love for when God is for us who can be against us and with Him (first) all things are possible. So, come with me today as we put God first in everything we do, and you will see the reward. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 58 (2026/04/26)

 

I guess we all feel at a stage that God seems distant and that it feels as if He is not hearing us or maybe He is ignoring us or even we are not worthy of His help. How often do our circumstances dictate our feelings and our worth in our own minds. My dear friend I am here to tell you today (and I am speaking to myself also) that God is not a distant God, He is a present God. He is not a selective God, He gave His Son Jesus Christ for all. He is not a careless God, He is a patient God for me and you and our enemies. He is not an unjust God, He loves justice and He will not allow the wicked to prevail. He is not blind to your problems or your challenges, He is in the midst of it giving you strength to overcome them and guidance to follow His Word and remain faithful in His Word and to trust Him in the process. That is why we can say this in faith and in trust: Then at last everyone will say, “There truly is a reward for those who live for God; surely there is a God who judges justly here on earth.” My dear friend, do not allow the lies of the enemy to hinder your progress and to create distance between you and God, instead run towards God and seek Him above all else. Seek His Word and His voice and block out the enemy and his lies. God will hear from heaven, and He will save you from your challenges. He will restore you and reconcile you. He will give you peace and He will prepare a table (of victory) in the presence of your enemies. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 57 (2026/04/25)

 

Psalm 57 is an amazing Psalm. David wrote this when he was hiding from Saul in a cave. Now we all have a cave where we hide out. Maybe it is in your mind or the mall or the gym or a park that you like to go to or maybe it is just a walk or a drive away from the things that kind of haunt you. David writes that he cried out to the Lord and He will send help from heaven to disgrace those who hound him. What stands out in this Psalm is something we have been discussing for the last few weeks. He writes, “My heart is confident in you, O God; my heart is confident. No wonder I can sing your praises!”. This is exactly what we have been saying because in the midst of our trials we should always sing praises to the Lord and when we speak, we should always say it shall be well and finally thank God for His help. David goes further and says that he is confident and that is why he can sing praises. In other word he knows it will be well and he knows that the one in him is far greater than the one who comes against him. Just as he stood confident before Goliath, he now stands confident as Saul tries to kill him. His confidence is not in his own self but in the power and grace of God. In the Word of God and in His promises. David knows that he is God’s anointed one and that Saul will not prevail just as you must remember you are God’s anointed one and nothing will prevail and no weapon formed against you shall prosper. My dear friend, come with me today and let us turn our worries and fear and hurt and pain and trouble into confidence in the Lord God almighty, who will hear from heaven and send help to rescue you. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 56 (2026/04/24)

But when I am afraid, I will put my trust in you. Sometimes we are working in a process, and it all seems to be going well, and your timelines and planning is all working out, but right there when you expect a bit of good news the opposite happens. Another unforeseen snag in the process and sometimes this can set you back. In verse 7 David writes “Don’t let them get away with their wickedness; in your anger, O God, bring them down”, honestly, I am feeling much the same. You know how sometimes you really think that this can now come to an end and then a small thing now pushes this forward and what has been frustrating will now take even longer. So, when David writes do not let them get away you begin to think will this ever happen and will this wickedness be stopped. We get negative and a whole bunch of negative thoughts start to surface. Now I need you to hear this in verse 9 – “My enemies will retreat when I call to you for help. This I know: God is on my side!”. Important phrase – THIS I KNOW. I know that God is for me and not against me, I know that I can do all things through Jesus who strengthens me, I know that I have authority over the enemy, I know that God will answer me, I know that His thoughts are to give me hope, I know that ALL things will work out for good and I know God is on my side. I know what God’s promise is and I know He said we will have victory and so “I praise God for what he has promised. I trust in God, so why should I be afraid? What can mere mortals do to me?”. As for me and my house, we will follow God, and I will stand on His promises, and I will see it all come to pass for I delight in my Lord, and I seek Him above all else. Have an awesome day, my friend and never allow negativity to enter into you mind and out your mouth but instead know ALL THINGS WILL WORK OUT FOR GOOD.

91 Days of Victory – Day 55 (2026/04/23)

Please listen and answer me, for I am overwhelmed by my troubles. When you start the Psalm, you can see how David is afflicted by his circumstances and the betrayal of those close to him. Our theme mainly this week is gratitude and living with a grateful attitude and recognising the things in our lives that we normally miss. Now looking at this verse I can relate so much to it and how David is tormented by the lies and deceit and wickedness of people close to him. Loving someone and to find out they are deceitful and they plan your demise can be a rude awakening. You know David writes in verse 6 “Oh, that I had wings like a dove; then I would fly away and rest! I would fly far away to the quiet of the wilderness”. I can’t tell you how many times this year I felt exactly like that. If I had wings, I would just fly away and go somewhere like a wilderness and just get away from all this nonsense. But that is not what I want you to see here, I want you to see his heart when he says, “But I will call on God, and the LORD will rescue me”. This is where we should run to. This is where we will find our rest and our peace. This is where we will find the answers and this is where we will see victory over all the things that so unexpectantly enters into our lives. This is where we find strength and this is where we find hope and a future. My dear friend, I wish I could say a word and all your troubles will vanish and all your pain and hurt will be gone. What I can do is to tell you how to overcome them and how to defeat them and how to find true healing and true restoration. In a grateful heart we are humbled again and we open our souls to God and His amazing love. Romans 8 Paul writes “And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them”. All things not some things but all things will work out for good. I can honestly testify to this because it is truly so. My dear friend, God’s thoughts about you are like the sand of the ocean, impossible to comprehend and those thoughts are of peace to give you a future and a hope. Know it and believe it. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 54 (2026/04/22)

But God is my helper. The Lord keeps me alive! I think in this one verse lies a multitude of things to consider. Let’s start with who is God. God is the creator of all and the one who helps us and blesses us with our health and what we all so easily take granted for is another day added to our lives. Another day to glorify His name despite our battles and our challenges. Another day to draw nearer to God and to live expectant of His promises. I wrote to you about the “It shall be well” principal and in what we say and what we believe we become. If we see only the negative in our lives our attitudes will reflect that. I am saying today that we must stop our natural way of negativity and complaining and turn our attitude to gratitude. Pastor At spoke so nicely about this and he reminded us of the ten leapers that Jesus healed yet not made well and one returned and fell to His feet and thanked Him. He was healed and fully restored, which means the deformities of his sickness was also removed. It is in our humble and gratitude hearts that we are not only healed but fully transformed. Jesus came to give us life, but we must also remember where we were and what we are saved from. His cross did not just take away our sin, but it changed our entire course and our direction. We are turned from eternal pain and death to eternal life with Him. Take a moment and just thank Him for your salvation and the promise that lies in that. My dear friend, I challenge you to live a life that shows gratitude and I can promise you, you will see God’s favour and blessings like never before. I can testify to this because I start all my mornings with thanksgiving and I praise Him for who He is and what He is doing in my life. It is worth it; it will truly be well with you. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 53 (2026/04/21)

 

Paul writes in Romans 7 “I don’t really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don’t do it. Instead, I do what I hate”. In Psalm 53 we are remined that God looks from the heavens at the world and He wants to see if we truly understand the responsibility we have towards the kingdom of heaven. Sin creeps into our lives to derail us from our purpose and our relationship with the Lord. My dear friend, I, off all is the king of sinners, and I make mistakes every day. What is important is our hearts in this and how we come before our Father when we have made a mistake or sinned against Him. It is simple and I am taking you to verse 5 where David writes “Terror will grip them, terror like they have never known before. God will scatter the bones of your enemies. You will put them to shame, for God has rejected them”. As the enemy comes to steal and destroy, God will restore you. He will heal your heart as the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ removes sin and destroy your enemies. Paul writes in Romans 7, “Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord”. And then he says in Romans 8, “So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death”. The enemy wants to steal your joy and break your relationship with the Lord. Stand up, my friend and let us return to our Lord and let His blood heal us from our mistakes and wash us clean. Let our redemptive hearts allow God to give us the wisdom and strength to face all temptations and trials and let us be victorious. The enemy has no power over you and the same power that raise Jesus from death lives in us. Be strong and face your battles with determination and allow the Holy Spirit to guide you away from sin and into an intimate relationship with Him, for the glory of our Lord. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 52 (2026/04/20)

 

Identity can be a thing many struggle with and many would seek the wrong acceptance and confirmation via many destructive methods or mediums. I love how our Pastor is so outspoken about social media and how so many show a made up and incorrect image of their true selves as they try to be someone or something they are not or rather should not be. I love this image David creates here in Psalm 52 where he says, “I am like an olive tree, thriving in the house of God”. What an amazing image because Olive trees hold a special significance in Christianity. Their slow growth means that faith in God is a lifelong journey of devotion and commitment. The olive tree's biblical meaning is one of blessing, peace, and purity. The plant represents the beautiful relationship between God and the people. As David continues and writes that he will trust in the name of the Lord in the presence of his people. This morning I want to remind you that as we face life and life in all its many areas and challenges both good and bad, we should always trust in the name of Jesus. There is so much in His name, it comes with abundance and authority and most of all, it comes with peace. Let us be that olive tree in the kingdom of God which represents peace, longevity, wisdom, and divine blessing. It stands for resilience and new beginnings and signifies enduring strength and reconciliation. Let us be the branch that is rooted in our Lord Jesus Christ so we may be fruitful in everything we face. Have an awesome day, my friend.

91 Days of Victory – Day 51 (2026/04/19)

Oh, give me back my joy again; you have broken me - now let me rejoice. I want to add on to my message yesterday. I wrote about being grateful and how we miss the little things in our lives and how quickly we forget what God did for us to get us where we are. Give me back my joy is my opening here and to be honest I believe that getting back our joy lies in how we are grateful for everything we have and what we went through. In the midst of our difficulties, God is right there with us. The Bible says in Deuteronomy 5; “The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged”. In Isaiah 45 God says, “I will go before you and will level the mountains; I will break down gates of bronze and cut through bars of iron”. God has done so much for us and continues to do, so my prayer is “Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a loyal (right) spirit within me”. In other words, make me the man I must be when you saw me before you created me. Renew my thoughts and turn them into thanksgiving so that I will have your joy. Renew my grateful heart so that the brokenness in me is healed and restored. Then let me rejoice wherever I go so that the world will know you are God and in you I will soar like an eagle and run and never go weary. I will have peace and strength to face anything. Have an awesome day, my friend.

91 Days of Victory – Day 50 (2026/04/18)

 

A grateful heart is a blessed heart. We live in a world where people love to complain and most of the time, they complain without seeing what they are blessed with. They complain about their jobs, but they have a job. They complain about their houses, but they have a roof over their heads. They want another car, but they can drive to work. They complain about their weight, but they are able to walk. How often do we miss what we have and what God has blessed us with. How often do we not see the little things that brought us where we are. I love this in Psalm 50: “Make thankfulness your sacrifice to God”. It is in our humility and with grateful hearts that we can step into God’s presence and worship Him for His grace and mercy. Psalm 50 says “Our God approaches, and he is not silent. Fire devours everything in his way, and a great storm rages around him”. This is the God we serve. Not a small God but one who can devour everything in His way and yet He loves each one of us that His thoughts about us are like the sand on the earth. So much so that He gave His son to die for our faults. How much more grateful should we be. Here are a few scriptures to align our minds and thoughts. 

I will give thanks to you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds (Psalm 91). 

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you (1 Thessalonians 5). 

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever (Psalm 107). 

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God (Philippians 4). A

nd whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him (Colossians 3). 

Have an awesome day, my friend.
