TOPIC: NO MORE LABOURING II MEMORIZE : And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest. Exodus 33:14 READ : Deuteronomy 15:5-6  5 Only if thou carefully hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command thee this day. 6 For the LORD thy God blesseth thee, as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations,but they shall not reign over thee. MESSAGE Yesterday, I explained that laboring means working so hard and having little or nothing to show for it. Work is easier when there are results. When I go for Mount Zion Hour at the RCCG Headquarters, where I have to lay hands on thousands of people, it is hard work, but I don't mind because testimonies follow. When a pastor fasts, prays, preaches, and follows up converts with all of his or her strength, yet the church does not grow, it is a terrible experience. I know this because l have ex...

TOPIC:  DEALING WITH DEMON POSSESSED PEOPLE

MEMORISE:  
And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. Hebrews 12:24

READ: Revelation 12:11 

11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

MESSAGE
Not everybody you see walking around is normal. Many are possessed by demons. Some people are addicted to fornication, some are obsessed with material things, some spend time in places where demons operate, like nightclubs and so on. Such people are very likely to be demon-possessed. There are ways in which you can know if someone is demon-possessed. However, the best way to ascertain whether someone is demon-possessed is by the gift of discerning of spirits. In any case, if you suspect that somebody is demon-possessed and you have to do anything with the fellow, then you need to cover yourself in the blood of Jesus always.

The blood of Jesus marks you as untouchable to forces of darkness. By covering yourself in the blood of Jesus, you are affirming that you belong to Him and therefore, demons should stay away from you. This can also go for your property. You can cover all your possessions with the blood of Jesus and then tell the devil not to go near them. If for example, you have a staff who you suspect is demon-possessed and the fellow has refused to surrender his/her life to Christ, in order to ensure that demons don't have any influence over your business, then you must always plead the blood of Jesus over it.

In Exodus 12:13, God told the Israelites:

And the blood shall be to you a token upon the houses where ye are: and when l see the blood, l will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when l smite the land of Egypt.

Whatever is covered in the blood of Jesus is too hot for demons to touch. Cover everything connected to you -'including your children, with the blood of Jesus. You don't know the kind of friends they will meet and play with in school or even the kind of teacher that would be teaching them.

PRAYER POINT
I cover myself, my loved ones and all that concerns me with the blood of Jesus. 

BIBILE IN ONE YEAR:  Luke 11-12
