TOPIC: SUSTAINING YOUR FREEDOM 1

MEMORISE

I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High. - 

(Psalm 9:2)

READ: Psalm 149:1-9 (KJV)

1 Praise ye the Lord. Sing unto the Lord a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.

2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.

4 For the Lord taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.

5 Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.

6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;

7 To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;

8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

9 To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the Lord.

MESSAGE

When someone who is under the burden of the yoke of satan cries out to God genuinely for help, God steps in and delivers such a fellow. However, after receiving the deliverance, there are certain things the person must do and continue to do so that the 'taskmaster' (the devil) will not lay a heavier burden on him or her. For example, God heard the cry of the Israelites when the Egyptians enslaved them, and He came to their rescue (Exodus 3:7-9), but there were steps they had to take to ensure that they were not re-enslaved by their Egyptian taskmasters.

Matthew 12:43-45 tells us that if a person becomes free from a burden of demonic possession and remains empty, the burden will return in a worse form because the evil spirit that left the person will return with seven other spirits that are more wicked than itself, so that the latter end of the person will be worse than the first. I pray that in any area the enemy wants your latter end to be worse than your beginning, the Almighty God will frustrate his plans, in Jesus' name.

When a fellow has been freed from a burden, the first thing that he or she must do to keep the enemy away and ensure that the burden that has been lifted does not return is to praise God continually. Acts 3:1-8 tells the story of a lame man who lay by the Beautiful Gate of the temple. When God visited him and took away his burden of stagnation, poverty, and shame, he began to walk, leap, and praise God without caring about anyone who was watching him. This man was born lame, and before his healing, he was already above 40 years old (Acts 4:22). This means that he was being carried from one point to another for over 40 years and must have been unable to enter the temple unaided. He might have been praying silently, "God, I wish I had legs so I could enter the temple and dance and praise You as You deserve." This must have been why he leapt and praised God with so much joy when he received his deliverance.

Beloved, has God been good to you? Has He taken away your burdens? Praise Him abundantly, everywhere, and at all times. As we see in today's Bible reading, fill your mouth with high praises to God. Dance and use musical instruments to praise Him, for He alone is worthy of your praise. 

KEY POINT

Praise is a powerful weapon for sustaining your victory and freedom. 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

Isaiah 32 - 34

HYMN 18 - PRAISE TO THE LORD, THE ALMIGHTY, THE KING OF CREATION

1. Praise to the Lord, the Almighty the king of creation; O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy health and salvation; all ye who hear, brothers and sister draw near, praise Him in glad adoration.

2. Praise to the Lord, who doth proper thy work and defend thee; surely His goodness and mercy here daily attend thee; ponder anew what the Almighty can do if with His love He befriend thee

3. Praise to the Lord, who, when tempest their warfare are waging who, when the elements madly around Thee are ranging, biddeth them cease, turneth their fury to peace, whirlwinds and waters assuaging.

4. praise to the Lord, who when darkness and sin is abounding who, when the godless do triumph, all virtue confounding, Sheddeth His light, chaseth the horrors of night, saints with His mercy surrounding.  

5. Praise to the Lord! O let all that is in me adore Him! All that hath life and breath come now with praises before Him! Let the amen sound from his people again; gladly for aye we adore Him.

God bless you as you share.

TOPIC: THE KEYS TO FREEDOM III

MEMORISE:

In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears.

Psalm 18:6

BIBLE READING: PSALM 3:1-4 (KJV)

1 Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.

2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.

3 But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

4 I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.

MESSAGE:

Over the past two days, I have discussed some of the steps that anyone who is under the devil's yoke of bondage must take to become free. Today, I will conclude this series by highlighting why a person under the yoke of the devil should cry out to God for deliverance.

I am often surprised to see people being passive and uninterested when it is time to pray. Unfortunately, people who behave in this manner are only wasting their time and would hardly get any results. No one, let alone those who are suffering under the devil's yoke, should be passive when it comes to prayer. This is because it is the effectual fervent prayer of the righteous that avails much (James 5:16), not the passive prayers. For example, in Mark 10:46-52, if Bartimaeus had not cried to Jesus for help, he would have remained blind. Similarly, in Matthew 15:21-28, if the Canaanite woman had not gone to seek help from Jesus and persisted in her cry to Him, her daughter may never have been delivered.

David was a man who always cried out to God for deliverance when faced with battles. Many times in his Psalms, he wrote about crying out to the Lord for help. For example, in Psalm 3:4, he wrote, "I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill." Just as David cried unto the Lord with his voice, as a child of God, you must also learn to cry unto Him whenever you find yourself in distress. Nobody can cry better or louder than you about any distressing situation you might find yourself in because you are the only one who knows where the shoe pinches. This is why people who are always running from one place to another in search of prayer contractors - people who will pray to God on their behalf - often stay in bondage for a long time. In today's memory verse, David said that he called upon God and cried unto Him in his distress, and God heard him out of His temple. God will never close His ears to a person who cries to Him genuinely and with a contrite heart (Psalm 51:17).

Beloved, you must never grow weary of praying whenever you feel burdened until God hears you; you must be willing to pay the price for freedom in the place of prayer. I pray that the Lord will answer you speedily every time you cry unto Him, in Jesus' Name. 

KEY POINT:

Those who cry out to God in their distress will experience His salvation. 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ISAIAH 29 - 31

HYMN 27 - WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS

1 What a friend we have in Jesus, 

All our sins and griefs to bear; 

what a privilege to carry 

Ev'rything to God in prayer. Oh, what peace we often forfeit, Oh, what needless pain we bear- All because we do not carry Ev'rything to God in prayer. 

2 Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged, Take it to the Lord in prayer. Can we find a Friend so faithful Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our ev'ry weakness, 

Take it to the Lord in prayer. 

3 Are we weak and heavy laden, 

Cumbered with a load of care? 

Precious Saviour, still our refuge, Take it to the Lord in prayer. Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer. In His arms He'll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there.

JESUS CHRIST THE SAME YESTERDAY, AND TODAY AND FOREVER (Hebrews 13:8).

God bless you as you share.

TOPIC: THE KEYS TO FREEDOM II

Memory Verse:

"See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil." — Deuteronomy 30:15

BIBLE READING EXODUS 21:1-6

1 Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.

2 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.

3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him.

4 If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.

5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free:

6 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever.

MESSAGE 

Yesterday, we talk say the first step to comot from any bondage wey devil put person inside na to first admit say problem dey and say you need God make Him help you. Today, we go talk about the second step.

After you don accept say you need help, the next thing na say you gats really want make God help you. For John 5:2-9, Jesus ask one man wey don dey sick for 38 years, "You wan make I heal you?" Some people fit wonder why Jesus ask that kain question, but the truth be say no be everybody wey get problem truly wan comot from am. Some people don too used to their bondage and no even dey ready to leave am.

Our Bible reading today show us say if slave decide say e love him slavery and no wan go free, dem go mark am as slave forever. That one mean say if person choose to remain for bondage, nobody fit force freedom on am.

No matter how long person don suffer, the day wey e truly decide say e wan free, na that day the journey to freedom start. Just like the woman wey get issue of blood for 12 years (Matthew 9:20-22). The day she go meet Jesus with faith, na that same day her problem finish.

God fit deliver anybody wey devil tie, even person wey people think say no fit escape (Isaiah 49:24-26). But the person must be willing to receive that freedom.

My dear brother or sister, if person still dey enjoy sin, e still dey under devil control. If you call yourself Christian but you still dey follow people wey dey push you enter sin, you never truly ready for freedom. You need to cut off every bad friendship and anything wey dey draw you away from God.

No be only mouth to talk say, "I want freedom." Your life suppose show am. Live holy, pray always, study your Bible, and dey fellowship with other believers. As you do so, God go fight for you and give you complete freedom.

REFLECTIONS 

Ask yourself: "I still dey allow devil control any area of my life?" If the answer na yes, today fit be the day wey you decide to surrender everything to God.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR Isaiah 25-28

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 23 - ALL TO JESUS I SURRENDER

Worldly pleasures all forsaken. 

Take me, Jesus, take me now. 

3. All to Jesus I surrender. Lord, I give myself to Thee; Fill me with Thy love and power, Let Thy blessing fall on me. 

4. All to Jesus I surrender, 

now I feel the sacred flame

Glory, glory to His name!

MEMORISE:

"For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper." 

Psalm 72:12

BIBLE READING: MARK 10:46-52

46  And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.

47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.

48 And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.

49 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.

50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.

51 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.

52 And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus in the way. 

MESSAGE:

God does not want anyone to be under satan's yoke. This is why Jesus said, "Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28). God is more than able to break the enemy's yoke over anyone (Isaiah 10:27), but such a person must first admit that he or she needs to be delivered.

Years ago, a man brought his wife to me and said, "Daddy, help me. My wife is a witch." I asked the woman if it was true, and she denied it. I then told her that if she was indeed a witch, as her husband claimed, we could pray with her, and she would be delivered. However, she insisted that she wasn't a witch because she wasn't willing to be delivered. I then prayed, "lf you're not a witch, you will continue to prosper; however, if you are, I bind whatever demon is operating in you." Three months later, she was brought back to me with her body so swollen, as she had doubled in size! Apparently, the demon that I bound inside her and had been feeding on her and defecating in her.

The first step for someone who is under the devil's yoke to become free is for the fellow to admit that there is a burden that he or she needs to be freed from. Until the fellow makes such an admission, he or she cannot be free. Likewise, if the person is okay with where he or she is and is satisfied with sickness, loneliness, barrenness, sorrow, or pain, he or she will remain under the burden of satan.

Sometime ago, a man was coughing badly, and he was brought to me for prayers. In the past, I would have gone ahead and prayed for him without asking questions, but from experience, I had learnt to ask questions. Therefore, I asked him, "Sir, how can I help you?" Even though it was clear that he was sick, I knew that I needed to ask him what he really wanted, just as Jesus asked Bartimaeus what he wanted in today's Bible reading. To my surprise, the man said, "I want you to pray that the cough leaves slowly."

Beloved, are you under satan's yoke in any area of your life? Admit that you need God's help and cry to Him to break it off immediately and completely. He will come to your aid speedily and deliver you, in the mighty name of Jesus.

KEY POINT:

The first step to gaining freedom from the devil's yoke is to admit the need for help.

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE
