How To Live An Astonishing Life Beyond Circumstances


For even hereunto were ye called:
because Christ also suffered for us,
leaving us an example, that ye should
follow his steps (1 Peter 2:21).

The Lord Jesus, in His earth-walk, led an
exemplary life. Not only was He a
phenomenal intrusion into the sense realm, He was extraordinary in all facets. He was never in want; He had no consciousness of need; He was always in charge of situations and circumstances. He was a marvel, to say
the least. He used words like no one ever did.

There isn’t a more perfect example for us to
emulate than Jesus. He exercised absolute mastery over circumstances; never flustered or ruffled by anything.
Every word He spoke came to pass. Once, He was in a boat with His disciples and they heard Him talk to the
boisterous winds and waves. Prior to that time, they had heard Him talk to a tree, and the tree withered from its
roots. He talked to blind eyes, and to lame legs, they all heard and obeyed Him. No wonder they asked in utter
bewilderment, “What manner of man is this?”
Well, I’ll tell you the manner of man Jesus is: He heads up the new creation. 2 Corinthians 5:17 says if any man be in Christ, he’s a new creature; a new kind
of man; this new kind of man is like Jesus. We’re of the same stock. 1 John 4:17 says, “…as he is, so are we
in this world.” This is the reason we can emulate Him.

Our theme scripture tells us to follow His steps; in other words, follow His examples, because as He is, so are we. He said in Mark 11:23, “You shall have what you say.” Hallelujah!
Practise this even now: command any boisterous wind and wave that may be billowing against your finances, your job, your academics, family, ministry, etc., to cease. Speak to diabetes to be healed; tell that cancerous growth to dematerialise. Like Jesus, you can talk to anything and it’ll obey you. That’s the example Jesus left us with, His very steps that we have to follow.

PRAYER
Thank you blessed Father, for the worthy and glorious examples of Jesus. I take charge of situations and circumstances, and reign in this life over Satan and the elements of this world by the power of the Holy Spirit, and authority in the Name of Jesus.
Amen.

LOVE ONE ANOTHER

He Wants You Vibrant And Strong

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth (3 John 1:2). One of the ways to improve your health is making sure you have good enough rest for your physical body, and good sleep has a role to play in this. It’s recommended to sleep for a certain number of hours every day. Although some people say, "There’re days that I sleep throughout; and then other days, I just stayed awake." That isn’t a normal lifestyle. If you’re that way, always cutting back on sleep, then you’ve got to reorder your lifestyle. You’re not supposed to go on for several days without sleep, hoping to make up by sleeping eventually for twenty-four hours. That’s not going to work. Over time, chronic insomnia could drastically affect your health. God made day and night on purpose. Night has a cooling effect on the natural body. The biological effect of night is to cause you to sleep, to create the instincts of sleep, yet some people will still
