As our tradition is in Living Faith Church Worldwide (aka Winners' Chapel), every month, a Prophetic Focus is released which serves as guide in Prayers, Messages, and other services. November 2017 is not an exception. The Prophetic Focus for November 2017 has been released through the President, Bishop David Oyedepo in a Memo sent to all Mission Stations which partly reads:
I
want to believe that everyone of us is still flowing in the anointing of
Operation Prayer for Life, my prayer is that Kingdom Advancement Prayer shall
become the life style of every Winner for life and may the ‘open’ blessings
that attend to secret investment in prayer continue to be the portion of
everyone of us for life.
We
must recognize that, while every prophetic word from the Lord is forever valid,
also valid is the fact that every prophetic word shall continue to be contended
with by the wicked one and his agents – Isa. 24:14/ 1 Cor. 16:9
This is why Paul wrote to Timothy saying, , “This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the
prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good
warfare;”- 1Tim. 1:18
We
understand from scriptures that the word of God is absolutely prophetic,
because it never returns void, but goes forth to accomplish it purpose in the
lives of those who receive and believe such prophetic word – Isa. 55:11/ Luk. 1:55
Remember,
every prophetic word is a seed with guaranteed harvest in the lives of those
who receive such in a good and honest heart – Gen. 8:22/ Luk 8:11/15
But according to scriptures, every seed delivers on praise, “Let the people praise thee,
O God; let all the people praise thee. Then shall the earth yield her increase;
………..God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him” – Ps.
67:5-7 (see also Hab. 3:17-19)
This is why no prophetic word will ever see the light of day without engaging
the weapon of thanksgiving and praise, because when joy ceases, every harvest
of the field perishes – Joel 1:11-12
Hannah, on receiving the prophetic word from Eli, rose up, took bread
and her countenance was no more sad, that
is, she was celebrating the reality of that prophetic word, which provoked
divine visitation that led to the birth of her Samuel – 1Sam. 1:13-19
Concerning Abraham, the Bible says, “he staggered not at the promise of God through
unbelief, but was strong in faith, giving glory to God”, that is,
provoking fulfillment of prophecy, which led to the birth of Isaac – Rom. 4:19-21
We also saw how Jehoshaphat and the army of Judah had to sing and praise
to see prophecy fulfilled – 2Chr. 20:14-24
Furthermore, Jesus had to give thanks to see this prophecy fulfilled as
He called Lazarus out of the grave – Jn. 11:40-44/ (Jn 5:25)
In conclusion, we must understand that only the hand of God has capacity
to fulfill the plan and purpose of God and we have to engage in praise warfare
among others to see prophetic words come
to pass in our lives
Therefore, the prophetic focus for November 2017 is:
PRAISE TRIGGERS FULFILLMENT OF PROPHECY – 2Chr. 20:14-24.
God bless you as you partake of Praise this Month to Trigger the fulfillment of your long-awaited Prophecies.
