Breaking Curses 2
Proverbs 26:2 (NET) Like a fluttering bird or like a flying swallow, so a curse without cause does not come to rest. When Dare wanted to be delivered from the curse in his life, he sought to establish contact with the pastor who placed a curse on him, but since he was now living in Europe, he had lost all contact with that church and didn’t know how to reestablish it. As he prayed and sought counsel from his current pastor, he realized that what the Lord needed him to do was to truly repent and forsake his former ways that made it possible for that curse to alight and remain in his life. After repenting before the Lord, soon enough, he was tested with that same kind of temptation. The company he was now working with gave him a new role that meant he was going to be handling a lot of money with little supervision. If he had not repented, he knew the “sharp” practices he would have employed to systematically game the system and make some extra money, but Dare now proposed in his heart not to go that way again. This was the fruit of repentance needed to demonstrate his freedom from the iniquity that made him a captive to curses. Unknown to him, passing that test was proof that he had truly repented from the iniquity in his heart that was a magnet for that curse. Consequently, he was automatically delivered. Before a curse can alight on a person’s life, there needs to be a cause; a corresponding iniquity that the curse exploits. The same goes for generational curses. Generational iniquities and proclivities of the heart are the requirements for generational curses to continue to find expression in any life. In order for curses to be broken, iniquities need to be forsaken. Only the power of Christ can truly deliver any man from the power of iniquity. Becoming like Christ is the only true remedy to iniquity in the heart. Go into today remembering that the way to break free of all curses is to be free of iniquity. Becoming like Christ is the sure path to this. —Abraham Dami Arigi Bible In One Year: Luke 5-6 Streamglobe is Interdenominational and nondenominational.

Breaking Curses 1
Proverbs 26:2 (NET) Like a fluttering bird or like a flying swallow, so a curse without cause does not come to rest. At 42, Dare was still unsettled in life. He wasn’t married and was still moving from place to place, living with his friends who were now tired of housing him. By the time he turned 43, he did some personal reflection and realized that his inability to settle down and prosper was abnormal. He traced back and realized that this all started 8 years ago when his former pastor placed a curse on him. He used to be a worker under this pastor when they had a falling out and Dare told him he wanted to leave the church. The pastor was so grieved that he said “you want to leave? You can go, but know you will never settle down in life”. This is what really happened: the church was moving to their new venue and bought some pricey musical instruments and equipment. Dare was the deacon who oversaw all of that, but there were allegations that he misappropriated millions during the process. His pastor got wind of the disturbing allegations and wanted to find out what was really going on. It was in the middle of this process that Dare informed his pastor that he was leaving the church. Indeed, Dare had used his position to divert millions of Naira into his personal account. Eight years had passed, and it was now clear to Dare that his life was under the limiting force of a curse. He was now sorry for his conduct and wanted the curse to be broken. That curse could alight on Dare’s life because he was not guiltless but was a thief. He needed to repent of that iniquity in order to break free of that curse. Many people are operating under curses because their lives have been warped by iniquity. In order to break free of such curses, there needs to be true repentance before God, and sometimes before man. Go into today remembering that no curse can alight upon you if you walk uprightly before the Lord. Generational curses will only find expression in the life of the person who has not broken free from the generational iniquity that made it possible for that curse to alight. Prayer: Ask the Lord to help you walk uprightly and above all curses and limitations. Repent of every transgression of God’s law that can be used as a basis for curses. Confession: I am free in Christ; Free of curses and limitations. I am blessed and prosperous. In Jesus’ name. —Abraham Dami Arigi Bible In One Year: Jeremiah 42-46 Streamglobe is Interdenominational and nondenominational.

Learning from Cain and Esau
Hebrews 10:26-27 (KJV) For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. Cain and Abel were siblings. A time came when they offered a sacrifice to God. Cain’s sacrifice was rejected while Abel’s was accepted (Gen 4:4-5). Cain was displeased and was angry because God had no respect for him and his sacrifice. When God saw this He spoke to Cain and warned him saying ‘‘If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but you must rule over it.” (Gen 4:7 ESV). But Cain chose to reject God’s warning, refused to rule over sin, and eventually murdered his brother Abel. God again came to him and asked, ‘‘where is Abel your brother?’’, but even at this, Cain showed no remorse but responded arrogantly, ‘‘I don’t know, am I my brother’s keeper?’’. Because he chose to reject God willfully, God cursed him and sent him out of His presence (Gen 4:11-12), even after this he would not ask God for forgiveness, he left the presence of God instead and started a civilization that was against God (Gen 4:16). Esau and Jacob were also children of the same parents, Esau sold his birthright to Jacob and Jacob eventually stole Esau’s blessing (Gen 27:36). Esau became angry and sought to kill Jacob his brother, but when he heard his father’s word concerning his future (Gen 27:40) he changed his mind concerning his plan and in the cause of time, he also became great (Gen 33:4-9). Anyone who refuses God’s forgiveness by willfully continuing in sin has chosen the path of destruction. Hebrews 2:3 (KJV) ‘‘How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him” Go into today knowing that to willfully continue in sin is to willfully depart from the presence and covering of God.

Be Strong and Confident
Psalms 31:24 (NET) Be strong and confident, all you who wait on the Lord! When Henry was in the hospital recovering from open-heart surgery, the doctors and nurses all had this to say about him: “He is really strong”. They said this not because of his physical strength, but because of his willpower and determination to recover against all odds. He was determined to get well despite the many complications that came. He was always positive and didn’t seem to ever allow depression and sorrow to overshadow him. He eventually got well and was discharged. One attribute that should always be found in the lives of those who wait on the Lord is strength and confidence. Strength is the ability not to be discouraged when others are. It is that spirit that makes you see the possibilities when others are complaining and quitting. Those who wait on the Lord cannot afford to be complainers and quitters. They are optimistic and hopeful because the one in whom they trust is the Lord of the heavens and the earth. Being strong and being confident in life always go together. We are admonished to be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. Being strong in the Lord means never giving up and complaining. It means never letting circumstances control our mood. Strong people don’t let circumstances control their mood, they contain circumstances with their faith and courage. Go into today remembering that in order to be fruitful in waiting on the Lord, you must be strong and confident. Replace every complaining in your heart with thanksgiving and praise to the Lord. Prayer: Heavenly Father, please help me to be strong and confident as I navigate this journey of life. Help me to see your goodness in the land of the living, In Jesus’ name. Amen. —Abraham Dami Arigi Yearly Bible Reading: Exodus 29-32 Streamglobe is Interdenominational and nondenominational. Kindly share this Devotional with your contacts and let’s touch lives together.

The Things of the Spirit
1 Corinthians 2:14 (NET)The unbeliever does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him. And he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. Daramola observed that many things they taught in the church didn’t make too much sense to him. Even though he was born into a Christian family, he did not understand how a person would live for a kingdom that they cannot see. As far as he was concerned, life was about making as much money as possible and enjoying the money. One of the first things that happened to him when he became born again was that it became clearer and clearer to him how empty and vain worldly possessions really were. They could no longer satisfy him, and unlike before when he sought to get satisfaction by seeking more of them, he now understood that the material things of this world didn’t have the ability to satisfy. He didn’t have this wisdom before. He kept running after more and more and was never really satisfied (Eccl 1:12). Daramola came to realize that the solution to the thirst and hunger in his soul was only found in Christ. For the first time in his life, he found rest for his soul (see Matt 11:29). He was no more seeking to be validated by things and people; he knew he was accepted and loved by Almighty God (Eph 1:6). If you notice that the things of the Spirit of God are beginning to look less important to you, it is an indication that your faith is under attack. You may want to spend more time in prayer and be more careful about the persons you spend much of your time with (see 2 Cor 6:14). Unbelief is a spiritually contagious disease. Go into today remembering that as believers, we are kingdom agents who live for the advancement of God’s kingdom. Everything else comes second (see Matt 6:33). —Abraham Dami Arigi Yearly Bible Reading: Exodus 29-32 Streamglobe is Interdenominational and nondenominational.

The one to whom we are accountable 2
1 Corinthians 3:13-15 (NET) each builder’s work will be plainly seen, for the Day will make it clear, because it will be revealed by fire. And the fire will test what kind of work each has done. If what someone has built survives, he will receive a reward. If someone’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss. He himself will be saved, but only as through fire. Chinedu started very well as a minister of the gospel, but along the way, he started mixing with the wrong folk and lost his focus. His closest friends were now fellow ministers of the gospel who were truly ministers to their belly. Their belly was their God and they minded earthly things (Phil 3:19). Their goal was fame and fortune and their real god was mammon. In no long time, Chinedu’s fellowship with them corrupted him and he became like them. The dream Chinedu had was like a reset button. Through it, he realized that he was not building according to pattern and his work would have been rejected. He repented and knew he needed to part ways with those friends. This was difficult but necessary if he was going to continue to serve God acceptably. In today’s Bible verses, Apostle Paul likened the church to a building. Those who the Lord uses to build the church are the leaders(the apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers). While some will build with gold and precious material, others will build with perishable materials. A servant of God whose affection is set on things above, and based on the kingdom, is building with precious stones. But a servant of God whose affection has been set on earthly things (money and fame) will build with perishable materials. A believer who lives for himself is building with perishable materials. But a believer who lives to please the Lord will set his affection on things above and will thus build with precious materials. Go into today remembering that your life and motives will be evaluated before the Lord. Live with this consciousness and receive help from the Lord through faith. —Abraham Damilola Arigi Yearly Bible Reading: II Corinthians 11-13 Streamglobe is Interdenominational and nondenominational.

The one to whom we are accountable
2 Corinthians 5:9-10 (NET) So then whether we are alive or away, we make it our ambition to please him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be paid back according to what he has done while in the body, whether good or evil. Chinedu had a very disturbing dream. In that dream, he saw that he was disqualified as a minister of the gospel. After this dream, he thought long and deep as he examined his life to see if he was truly serving the Lord accordingly. He painfully discovered that his motivation for ministry had shifted from a desire to raise disciples of Christ to a desire to be “successful” in eyes of men. That dream reminded him of something he was not to forget as a servant of the Lord; it reminded him that he was going to give an account to the Lord for how he served as a minister of the gospel. He had forgotten this truth and lived as if the approval of men was what mattered. One of the saddest things that will happen to any believer is appearing before the Lord Jesus and finding out that He is not pleased with the way you lived your life. May we appear before Him and hear “well done, good and faithful servant”. Go into today remembering that there is nothing this present world has to offer that is close to the glory and power we will receive when the Lord returns. Don’t allow the ephemeral things of this world to distract you from being faithful to the one to whom you are accountable. Prayer: Lord Jesus, help me always remember that I will give an account to you for my stewardship here on earth. —Abraham Damilola Arigi Yearly Bible Reading: Luke 3-4 Streamglobe is Interdenominational and nondenominational.

Abundant Grace 2

Romans 5:20 (NET) Now the law came in so that the transgression may increase, but where sin increased, grace multiplied all the more Simon was so depressed that he could not pray and didn’t even want to go to fellowship. He believed he had failed God too many times and God would not be willing to have anything to do with Him. But after he summoned the courage to go to church that evening, he heard a sermon concerning God’s abundant grace. He immediately knew that even though his sins were big, God’s grace was bigger. Because he received the forgiveness of God, he was determined to talk to his pastor about his struggles because he didn’t want to go back to where he was before he came to church that day. He was guided to some spiritual disciplines that the Lord used to deliver him from bondage to certain sins. Yesterday, we saw that grace is like the detergent and effort put into washing a dirty vessel or cloth. The dirtier a cloth, the more the detergent and effort required to wash it. The good news is that we serve an unlimited God with abundant grace. There is sufficient grace in God to wash the vilest of sinners and turn them into saints. Even after you have believed and have been washed, God does not want you to sin and His grace ensures this, but if you sin, there is still sufficient grace to cleanse you and make you clean again(see 1 John 2:1-2). You have to believe this and not let the devil rob you of your freedom because of guilt and ignorance. Dwelling in guilt would only ensure that you become ensnared to sin, but receiving the abundant grace and forgiveness of God is the way to receive strength to constantly walk in victory over sin. Go into today remembering that the abundance of God’s grace towards you is greater than any sin and accusation of Satan. Stand in this grace and enjoy God’s victory over sin and the devil. Prayer: Father, thank You for Your abundant grace. Please help me walk in it and please you in all things, in Jesus name. Amen. -Abraham Damilola Arigi Broadcast 3340 Click this link to join our WhatsApp Group & start getting Streamglobe Devotional Text & Audio early every day ☞ https://chat.whatsapp.com/KfVQMSp1Y2b9KCVYqvRhDq 🎧Download Today’s Audio Devotional & Bible Reading Here☞ https://bit.ly/aud3340 https://listen.streamglobe.org/Devotional%20Audio%203340.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download ()Subscribe: RSS
Abundant Grace
Romans 5:20 (NET)Now the law came in so that the transgression may increase, but where sin increased, grace multiplied all the more Man committed sin from the beginning, but without the law, we did not know how dangerous sin was(it was the law that showed us that the wages of sin is death). God gave Man a conscience that acts as a law within him(see Rom 2:14-15), sin is a violation of this law. When the law came, sinning was now double transgression. The one was violating the principle of life, and the other was disobedience to the commands of God. Because of the law, sin became even more sinful and offensive(a double violation). Thus, the grace that made us free from the filthiness and consequences of sin had to much more abound. Grace is like the detergent and effort put in to wash a filthy vessel. Grace is God’s effort to wash away the filth of our sins and make us clean and justified to stand before Him and share in His divine nature. You would agree with me that the dirtier something is, there would be more detergent and work required to clean it. Where sin increased, grace multiplied much more. Go into today remembering that it cost God the life of His only begotten son to clean you of your sins. Don’t take this sacrifice for granted by willfully walking in the flesh(sin). Do everything possible to flee the path of sin. Seek help if the need be. Prayer: Lord, thank you for your grace that gives me access to your divine life. Please help me walk worthy of this grace and please you in all respects(see Eph 4:1, Col 1:10, 1 Thess 2:21). —Abraham Damilola Arigi Yearly Bible Reading: Job 39-40 Streamglobe is Interdenominational and nondenominational.

The Kingdom Principle Of Faithfulness
Matthew 25:23 (KJV) His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. Larry became really envious of Sunday who had become a great man celebrated by many the world over. He didn’t understand why Sunday became so great and not him because they used to be really close when they were much younger, and he saw that he was more intelligent, gifted, and talented than Sunday. Larry always believed that God had destined him for greatness, but he was not experiencing any of it. All he saw were struggles. He almost fell into what some call a mid-life crisis, because he was already over 45, and it was now looking clear to him that he was not going to be as successful and great as he had always hoped. As Larry continued to study why people enter into their greatness, he observed a principle that was greatly lacking in his life. He saw that unlike his friend Sunday, he was not a very faithful and reliable person. He was never really consistent at anything that didn’t give instant gratification. He observed that God gave greatness, but one of the principles of greatness in the kingdom of God is faithfulness in the little and in another man’s work(see Luke 16:10,12). Unlike Sunday, he was too proud to be committed to anything that didn’t originate from him. There are different ways of attaining greatness in this world, but greatness in the kingdom of God can only be received by those who are faithful in the little. When you have been faithful in little, much will be given to you –that is the kingdom way (see Luke 16:10,12). Many stars have fallen because they shined before they were proven with faithfulness. It is possible to expose yourself and orchestrate your shining, but if your greatness is not from the Lord, you will have to continue to employ your gimmicks to sustain it, and a time would come that you would run out of them. Go into today remembering that God only promotes those who have shown faithfulness in the little things. Remember also that they that compare themselves with themselves are not wise (2 Corinthians 10:12). Prayer: Lord, give me grace and wisdom to be faithful and consistent. Amen. —Abraham Damilola Arigi Bible In One Year: Psalms 57-59 (In Devotional Audio) Streamglobe is Interdenominational and nondenominational.
