2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)

I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.

Over the years of my walk with God, wherever I go, I have observed that many Christians are enthusiastic and energised from the very moment a call to prayer in the Church is launched. The first five to ten minutes can be fiery, full of power and passion. However, as the prayer time progresses, it is obvious that prayer stamina is on the decline! People who started out screaming and shouting now speak in low tones.

Let me tell you this: Prayer is not a sprint; it is a marathon! Let your prayer mode and prayer life be steady and consistent. Where are you rushing, and who are you fighting? Learn to focus on prayer as a marathon, then push it in tongues as well, for the Bible says, “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit himself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.” (Romans 8:26). Marathon Runners do not plan for seconds or minutes but hours to conquer unchartered territories, break new records, and become line crossers. Act like one today.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I am focused on my calling. I shall run my race with diligence. Working for God is full-time for me, and anything else is part-time! Glory, Amen.

Acts 20:24

1 Kings 1:34 (NLT)

There Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet are to anoint him king over Israel. Blow the ram’s horn and shout, "Long live King Solomon!"

There are luminaries in the realms of the spirit who captured what I term the technology of priesthood and used it to do exploits for God. They journeyed beyond the curtain of time to tap into another realm where they transformed spiritual materiality into physical materiality.

The Word of God calls us kings and priests (Revelation.1:6), not prophets and priests! The prophet commands by the prophetic whilst the priest, through the technology of priesthood, has the advantage of enforcing what the prophet commands!

In Numbers 16:47, Notice that there was a deadly situation where the prophet, Moses, commanded (prophesied) whilst Aaron, the priest, enforced the prophetic decree as spoken by the prophet. When you understand that you are a priest, you can engage the technology of priesthood to stop any sickness ravaging your family, your neighbourhood, and your city! The technology of priesthood awakens in you the capacity to dominate, which is intrinsic to your office as a priest! The priesthood unction is actively invoked in prayer, so engage it now, not tomorrow!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I am a royal priesthood that cannot be manipulated by the antics of the enemy. I know who I am in Christ Jesus, destined for greatness and above circumstances! Amen.

1 Timothy 4:12 (KJV)

Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

There is a time and a window of opportunity to plunge into your calling and impact your generation, and that time is now! We see footballers starting their careers at a tender age, knowing that by a certain age, that gift or talent will no longer be expressed with tangible results. So, if people in other professions can start early in life, why would you think starting the work of an evangelist, teacher, pastor, or prophet is daunting because of your age?

Far beyond a profession, yours is a calling which must be exercised now and not postponed. It’s about the stage, not age! Don't allow pride disguised as shyness to stop you! Wake up and take your position as the able minister of the Gospel on fire for Jesus. When you submit to God’s Spirit, He will amplify your voice to impact nations for Jesus!

We are living at the very end of the age, and there is no more time; the trumpet could sound at any time! Wake up!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I am the called of God, separated to impact my generation. I shall march forward with the boldness of a lion and conquer territories, winning souls for Jesus! Amen.
