Day 4 - Have a Consistent Light Source

Day 4

Genesis 1:14-19 – “And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.”
Declaration: Let there be lights in the firmament of my heaven to divide my day from my night, in Jesus’ name!
God of Glory, Master of all Seasons! Make the revelation of your will and counsel for my life evident through the light of Your Word in my life at all times, in Jesus’ name!

Have a Consistent Light Source


  • Beyond the entrance of God’s word into your life at inception, you need a standard, consistent and powerful light source in your world.
  • Be permanently connected to Jesus, the Light of the world.
  • Constantly receive light through God’s Word in the scriptures, via His Holy Spirit in our hearts, the Inner witness, our parents, pastors, churches, fellowships, Christian literatures and teaching materials.
  • Your life and world must revolve around the light of God’s Word on a consistent basis:
    • All year round. The earth revolves around the sun 365¼ days in a year.
    • Monthly. As the moon orbits round the earth every month, create time for a personal retreat/meditation to allow God’s word to search you.
    • Daily. Just like the earth’s rotation on its axis every single day, allow every areas of your life be illuminated by God’s word on a daily basis.
    • Across all seasons. Let God’s word determine the seasons of your life. God’s word should be your guiding light both in your day and night seasons (See Psalm 16:7).

Day 3 - Separate

Day 3

Genesis 1:9-10 – “And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.”
Declaration: I decree and I declare that the waters under my heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear, in Jesus’ awesome name!

Separate

  • Do not forget that the water under the expanse is the portion of your regular income that is meant to meet with your daily and regular needs.
  • This portion of your income must be gathered together into a common pool of account in one place. This could be a savings account.
  • Always make sure that you first of all save all the cash that you receive into your savings account for some time before you spend them on anything.  All spending can wait for at least the period of your savings and your withdrawal.
  • This will make your savings account in the bank active.
  • You must further prioritize your dry ground. Write down everything you have to spend your cash on. Carefully prioritize them in the appropriate order of importance. And don’t forget that first things should always come first.
  • Delay as much as possible any major spending until you have done your homework properly.
  • Make a research and look out for the best place to buy, the quality of the product or services you are buying, the best bargain you can make, the best negotiation to make for the best deal, until you get the most reasonable, quality, and best deal.
  • You may have to first of all go on a window-shopping or look-up for the best deals online via internet search engines.
  • Be frugal in your spending.
  • Always remember that anything you buy without having a need for may make you to eventually sell what you need in the future.
Genesis 1:11-13 – “And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And the evening and the morning were the third day.”
  • We must go further to make sure that even the liabilities we buy can also generate income for us.
  • An example is when we buy a car for personal or home use.  The car is usually a liability because we spend money on it to buy gas and do regular maintenance. We can however make a decision to turn it into a profit-making venture by using it as a taxi or having an arrangement with a trusted car-hire company for use when there is a demand for it.  Trucks can be used for removal services.
  • Another example is when we learn how to properly recycle our used, old, or bad gadgets, waste papers/polythene bags, etc using recycling bins and make extra cash; rather than spending more money to out-rightly trash them.
  • All I am trying to say is that we must carefully think through how we can go further in turning our liabilities into profit-making ventures/opportunities.
  • There is always a new product in every waste. If we learn how to recycle things and turn things around, a new product is always in the waste.
  • This is one of the principles of nature, and we have to learn how to harness the power of regeneration that God has placed in everything He created for us to take full dominion over.

Genesis 8:22 – “While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.”
