Luke 10:19, 1 Cor 10:13, Psalm 139:14, Exodus 1:9, Exodus 23:27, Isaiah 54:17, Psalm 44:5, Acts 2:43, Joshua 1:5

Men and brethren, you cannot be in the canopy of God’s presence without having an encounter with His Power this New Year. The presence of God and the mandate of God qualify us to face any Goliath- any problem that comes against us, our family and our community. God is looking for men and women that will stand and confront their confrontation because they have been made tougher by divine mandate in 2021. I stand by the unction of this commission, I declare to every committed partner, In 2021, “Nothing shall by any means hurt you” Luke 10:19.

Hear me, to be tough is to remain at peace amidst the storms that will rage around us in 2021. To be tough is to stay the course. In that act we should demonstrate the toughness of our spirit, staying firmly on the path of God, guided by our heart, grounded in love, and at peace with ourselves. Nevertheless, the understanding of how God measures our capacity for wonderment, capacity to absorb trouble, pain, and even blessings, differ from person to person. That is why you can have men and women who are Age-mates but not Grace-mates. The scripture says “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it” 1 Corinthians 10:13. In all, there is always a way of escape. You Are Made Tougher Than Your Tough Times by divine mandate. You are escaping every calamity of 2021 in Jesus name

The Psalmist had declared why he must constantly praise God and be ready to do business, in the atmosphere of business to do business with God who specializes in doing business, “I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well” Psalm 139:14. What most believers don’t know is that our enemies secretly and silently fear us Exodus 1:9, Exodus 23:27, Isaiah 54:17, Psalm 44:5, Acts 2:43, Joshua 1:5. The good news is that we are created for exploits and for dominion. See, the more Pharaoh puts limitation to releasing the children of Israel from slavery and captivity, the more the children of Israel became stronger, the more they multiplied, and the more miracles they saw. Exodus 1:12, Exodus 1:19, I declare, because your enemies have asked who are you and mocked you, they shall see more miracles in your life than all your past years combined together in 2021.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the increase of fire was not enough to change the mind set of Shedrach, Meshack and Abednego, they knew how tough heaven had made them; the situation was so tense that they made it tougher by themselves in addressing the king by his first name without putting ‘King’. Listen to them “O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter Daniel 3:16. Stubbornness is refusal to unnecessary formality. It is amazing that some people only praise God in good times and then when the party is over, or the fantasy is over so to speak, they revert back to the low self-esteem, low-motivated no hope person that existed on the other side of the situation they are currently facing. I have news for you today, in 2021, your situation may not change and things might not get better but get worse; there may be no rescue plan set in motion to bring you out of what you find yourself in. But there is hope, there is an answer to your questions and as soon as you are ready to leave your pity party behind, there is a praise party that is awaiting you. God will defend you, protect you and cause trouble in the camp of your mockers. 

It is time to anoint yourself with the Anointing oil, put on that tape of complete and total worship, something that makes you feel like you are walking on water, turn it up; relocate from your noise making to praise making and go to dancing all over your house. Celebrate that fact that you are still alive today, with breath in your body and in your right mind. I guarantee that you will find the praise party a much better place to be in than the pity party. It may sound crazy to do but what have you got to lose? As you praise God in 2021, Your Michal – the household and village enemy shall go barren in Jesus name. Amen

Men and brethren, if you can name your problem in 2021 you can name your possibility! Your life can be a portrait of a survivor but you’ve got to put your problems in the proper perspective. You are a winner; you are a survivor and are tougher than your tough times. No matter how bad your situation may be right now, it could have been worse so you need to thank God right in the middle of what you are facing that you are still here. No matter how life knocks you down, and it will, you’ve got to look up to the hills from whence cometh your help and acknowledge that your help and your strength to over come, comes from the Lord! Psalm 121:1

Everybody has problems and no life is a problem-free zone; that is why we have the comfort zone; a place you can come as you desire while facing the battles of life. You can face the tragedies in your life with the confidence that you are not alone and you were built to last. You may have felt like giving up when you stumbled in life and made a mistake or you may have felt like you wanted to die because you could not see any way out of your situation. All your friends may have turned and walked away from you and you may have lost all that you worked your whole life to build; your career – gone, your family – gone, your money – gone. But you are still here! Don’t ever discount that my friend. You are still here in spite of what tried to take you out. You may have lost a limb but you survived. You may have lost family members and friends along the way but you made it. It may have been on a wing and prayer but you did it. It may have been hard and the task may have felt daunting but you made it to fight and win another day because you are tougher than you think you are.

Psalm 139:14 reads; “I will praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are your works, and my soul knows very well.” In the original Hebrew text, the word ‘fearfully’ means: with great reverence and heart-felt interest and respect. The word ‘wonderfully’ means: unique, set apart, uniquely marvelous. WOW! No wonder the psalmist bursts out with exuberant praise in this verse. He realized the great love and concern that went into his unique and very individual creation. According to this Scripture, you truly are a Master Piece! The next time you have the temptation to ask the Lord, “Don’t you care what is happening to me?” Remember this verse, because the total truth is that He cares and loves you with an acute intensity that cannot ever be measured.

“Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, and He who formed you from the womb…” Isaiah 44:24. The word ‘formed’ in the Hebrew means to fashion or to mould into a form, especially as a potter – with a definitive purpose in mind. Does the Lord care for us – can there be any doubt?

Let’s examine the word ‘workmanship in Eph 2:10.’ It comes from the Greek word ‘poiema’ and the word signifies a work of art brought forth by an artisan. Our English word poem and poetry stem from this word. Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end.” Today is a new beginning; treat it that way. Stop thinking about what might have been and starting looking at what can be. Because a great beginning always occurs at the exact moment you thought would be the end of everything. Therefore, you are tougher than your tough times by divine mandate
