Psalm 27:1-3
His presence makes you stronger.

“The LORD is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the strength of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid?
When the wicked came against me
To eat up my flesh,
My enemies and foes,
They stumbled and fell.
Though an army may encamp against me,
My heart shall not fear;
Though war may rise against me,
In this I will be confident.” (Verses 1-3)

Every second of every minute of every hour of every day is time that we can spend in the presence of the Lord – if we desire to go there.

THAT MOUTH ODOR IS NOT JUST YOUR MOUTH.
It’s your metabolism dragging you by the gum.
Let me explain before you spray mint all over this post.
Some of you think your toothbrush is your salvation…
But you’re brushing a mouth that’s leaking inflammation, insulin resistance, and undigested trauma.
You don’t just have bad breath.
You have bad metabolic signals.
And your mouth — that same mouth you use to eat bread and lie — is snitching.
Bleeding gums
Constant mouth odor
Gum pain or swelling
You “brush daily” but still can’t kiss with confidence?
That’s not just dental wahala.
That’s a full-body health alert.
You’re not just fighting mouth bacteria.
You’re feeding them.
With your sugar.
With your processed junk.
With the constant eating.
With the stress you refuse to rest from.
With the bread you swear by, even though your gums are dying.
Gum disease is linked to:
– Type 2 diabetes
– High blood pressure
– Belly fat
– Alzheimer’s
– PCOS
– Chronic fatigue
– Fertility problems
Yes. You’re brushing your way to infertility.
Because those bacteria in your mouth don’t stay in your mouth.
They enter your blood.
They enter your brain.
They enter your gut.
They enter your destiny.
This is why DOF screams:
– Water floss.
– Eat better.
– Kill sugar.
– Check your gums.
– Don’t kiss with insulin resistance.
Because you can’t unfat yourself if your mouth is still leaking chaos into your bloodstream.
Your breath is data.
Your gums are gossiping.
And your toothbrush is overwhelmed.
So what should you do?
Eat protein and vegetables
Use a water flosser (life changer!)
Stop eating nonsense before bed
Hydrate, don’t soda-ate
Heal your gut = Heal your mouth
Take mouth hygiene serious like you take skincare
Get a diet plan that works WITH your healing, not against it

"Beloved ,when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation,it was needful for me to write unto you,and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints '(Jude vs 3)

THEME: *WHY SUFFERING PRECEDES BREAKTHROUGHS?*

MEMORIZE
Hebrews 5:8
Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;

READ
Hebrews 2:5-10, 14-18
For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak.
But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him?
Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands:
Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
*You cannot have the crown without the cross.*

MESSAGE
Why does God allow suffering before every breakthrough?

There is something very powerful that suffering does in us more than anything else.

Before every breakthrough, there will be suffering, not maybe or possibly, but certainly. This is not because God is cruel, but He is preparing you for something greater than you could ever imagine.

Suffering is not His absence. It is His presence.

It is in the fire where your character is forged, where your faith is stretched, where pride dies, where humility is born.

So many run away from the pain crying, God, where are you in all of these troubles. Guess what, He is right there with you in the tears, in the agony, in the silence, He is closer in your suffering than in your comfort.

When nothing seems to make sense to you, that is when its making the most sense to God.

The enemy trembles when a child of God walks through the fire and holds on to their praises unto God.

God does not allow suffering to destroy you but to strip you of everything that cannot stand in His presence.

Every idol, every illusion, every false hope, every arrogance must be removed.

The storm comes not to drown you but to expose and to remove everything that was never meant to stay.

When it's past, what remains will be unshakeable; that is breakthrough.

Look through the scriptures, Joseph was thrown into a pit, sold into slavery and forgotten, before he ever wore the robe of royalty.

Moses wandered in the desert for forty years before he parted the red sea. David was hunted and hidden in caves before he wore the crown.

And Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour endured the cross, despised the shame before wearing the crown of glory. He endured a horrible death before His glorious resurrection.

You cannot have a resurrection without the crucifixion.

*You cannot have the crown without the cross.*

We live in a world where everyone wants instant blessings, but God is not in a hurry; He is raising soldiers, not entertainers. Soldiers are trained in battlefields, not banquet halls.

God is not absent in your suffering, He is present but silent because the teacher is usually silent during the exams...

No matter what you may be going through today, hold on. It will soon be over, and you will step into your own breakthroughs in Jesus' name. Amen.

ACTION STEPS
1. Thank God for everything that God has allowed you to pass through in your life.
2. Ask the Holy Spirit to show you the lessons you have missed that you still need to move forward.
3. Pray for the wisdom of relevant applications of truth for your transformation.

REMEMBER
*You cannot have the crown without the cross.*

PRAYERS
Dear heavenly Father, Thank you for today's devotional guide. I receive grace to accept the responsibility of honouring you and becoming the best version of me that is capable of being used of you for the assignment you created me for. Thank you for your mercies and faithfulness in my life. Accept my thanksgiving in Jesus' name. Amen.

Till I cross the narrow sea ;
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
Till I rest in peace with Thee.

THEME: *THE BENEFITS OF PRAYING IN TONGUES* PART THREE

MEMORIZE
1 Corinthians 14:2
For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.

READ
1 Corinthians 14:2, 4-5, 14-15
For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.
I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.
For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.
What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
*God who hides in the realms of mysteries can only be accessed through a mysterious channel.*

MESSAGE
Anyone who has ever been betrayed before knows the value of loyalty and confidentiality. It is at such times that we desire to have people we can trust with the secret issues of our lives. And none is as trustworthy and reliable as the Lord our God.
Who loves and protects us despite all He knows about us.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to have a direct access to God all by yourself?

Some people desire to have a personal access to God without any interference. They want to be able to tell God their secret issues without anyone getting to know about it. They want to get personal with God. Well, that is one of the privileges of using the prayer language.

In today's text, we are told that you are actually on a direct access to God when you use the prayer language.

*It simply says; he that speaks in an unknown tongue speaks not to men but unto God because no man understands him.*

The prayer language is meant to help us communicate on a personal level with God directly without anyone knowing what we are telling him. It is one of the ways God gets personal with all His children on a private level.

The benefits of praying in an unknown tongue is enormous and numerous beyond words. Praying in an unknown tongue is not just engaging the Holy Spirit through the prayer language alone, it is amongst other things; edifying yourself, sort of like charging a battery.

You are charging up your inner man when you pray in tongues.

Life can be so hard and unbearable sometimes. And many times, we are bombarded with issues that weigh us down. The scriptures say we are hard pressed on every sides...

We need to be fully charged up with divine strength to withstand the pressures of life. And using the prayer language is one of the ways we stay spiritually charged up.

The apostle Paul went on to say that your spirit is actually praying directly when you are using the prayer language.

God is a spirit and we can only reach Him through a spiritual medium. Hence the need to engage the Holy Spirit through your spirit.

*God who hides in the realms of mysteries can only be accessed through a mysterious channel.*

There is no need to carry your burdens all by yourself any more. You can tell it to Jesus in a coded language.

ACTION STEPS
1. Be assured of your salvation with the Lord today.
2. Pray for the baptism of the Holy Spirit if you are yet to received it. To receive the prayer language.

3. Maintain a tight fellowship with the Lord through the Holy Spirit daily.

PRAYERS
Dear heavenly Father, Thank you for today's devotional guide. Fill me with your Holy Spirit always in Jesus' name. Amen.

REMEMBER
*God who hides in the realms of mysteries can only be accessed through a mysterious channel.*

HYMN
O Love, that passeth knowledge,
O Love, whose beams have shone
Through everlasting ages,
From God's eternal throne ;
What power Thy depths can fathom ?
What tongue can speak Thy worth ?
And yet Thou condescendest
To dwell with men on earth.

O Love, all love excelling
Unnumbered hosts are telling,
In yonder blissful dwelling,
What Thou for them hast done.

2
O Love, that our redemption
Made perfect through the blood
Of Him whose life was offered,
To bring us near to God ;
O Love, that now extendeth
A pardon full and free,
And bends with eyes of pity
On sinners such as we.

3
We give our hearts' devotion,
And grateful thanks we bring,
And lift our hearts and voices,
To praise our Lord and King ;
O Love, all thought surpassing,
What will our rapture be,
When, safe beyond the river,
Our souls are lost in Thee !

THEME: *INVOKING THE BLESSING OF THE SEVENTEENTH SEASON*

MEMORIZE
Genesis 8:4
And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.

READ
Genesis 7:11-12
In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
*The key to this sacred season is prayers and fasting and submission to God's authority*

MESSAGE
This new millennium is already twenty-five years old.

Today is the seventeenth day of the seventh month of the twenty-fifth year of this millennium. I hope this strikes a chord in you.

There are no meaningless details in scriptures. The flood that carried Noah and his family began on the seventeenth day of a certain month and also brought the same ark to it's resting place for a new beginning on the seventeenth day of the seventh month of the year. This couldn't have been a coincidence.

Today is the anniversary of DIVINE REST for you and your family in Jesus' name.

We need to pay attention to the voice of this season as it unfolds and unwinds itself before our very eyes.

The ark of Noah found its resting place upon the mountains of Ararat on the seventeenth day of the seventh month of the year. That is significant because that date has come around before us again today.

Therefore, as a prophet, I declare your own season of REST upon the mountains of your significance in destiny in Jesus' name.

In the seventeenth book of the Bible, the divine page opened upon the life of an innocent slave girl in diaspora, and she rose from being a nonentity to notoriety. At the same time, a wicked man rose in the same kingdom. Hamman rose with an evil agenda to destroy the people of covenant. But by divine intervention, Esther, through prayers and fasting in submission to authority, overthrew the Dominion of evil and their sponsors.

Mordecai was brought into power in the place of the wicked Hamman.
Therefore, the seventeenth season is a season of the RISE OF POWERS. But it's the time to overthrow evil Dominion and enthrone the people of covenant to power. It is a time of open reward for every secret Labours in the past.

Every consecration of the past will produce a crown upon the head of the righteous.

It is a season of sudden announcements of overdue promotions. At the same time, it is a season of great temptation for God's people; but through prayers and fasting, God shall raise up a MIGHTY horn of deliverance for us in the land.

Therefore beloved, I suggest you take out time to pray and to fast today in order for you to be sensitive to the voice of the season; and to consequently lay hold on the promises of God for this season.

May the blessings of this season come now upon you and your family in Jesus' name.

ACTION STEPS
1. Prayerfully meditate on today's devotional guide.
2. Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you through this season wacthfully.
3. Be intentional about your personal fellowship with the LORD.

PRAYERS
Dear heavenly Father, Thank you for today's devotional guide. Oh, LORD GOD of HOST let the heaven of this season open to me now and let its blessings locate me in Jesus' name. Amen.

REMEMBER
*The key to this sacred season is prayers and fasting and submission to God's authority.*

Perfect submission, all is at rest,
I in my Saviour am happy and blest;
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

LAW AND ORDER

Boundaries are created by law and order they are synonymous with each other and what the whole earth is founded on from the laws of gravity the oceans and the dry grounds separated from each other the physical expanse of the atmosphere and water environments that contain lifeforms that need specific temperatures to thrive such as the polar bear and even fruits and vegetables will only grow in soil in the right temperature they are even only matured in the season set for them which is guided by time. A baby cannot be produced unless two material mater of egg and sperm meet a foal takes three years to form from inception.

Without fixed laws guarding the success of all these facets of life within time and space it would not produce the desired result needed for each environment. We can not climb 60 thousand feet on foot and survive as that is the natural law that oxygen is not as accessible this far from the earth. If we ate something that is not fit for human consumption but was designed for another purpose such as a solvent that removes paint we would surely die if we did not have oxygen to be viable on this planet the body could not survive but after that the sprit goes back to where it started from to god which is another environment that even has a new set of laws that we have access to the throne room of grace by the blood of Jesus which is a primary law of salvation of acceptance of him and all he has done by making him lord and savior of our life while we are still in the flesh we become born again.

Its activating faith which is completely separate from doubt it has boundaries. Even love is defined by what it is not it is not self seeking its binary opposite is selflessness it does not behave rudely that means love is polite it does not rejoice in iniquity but rejoices in the truth its like defining black from white. The road rules that create law and order make it functional that keeps pedestrians and drivers of vehicles safe by the law of give way that is written into the consciousness of every citizen by ensuring they have qualified by passing the test that gave them legal permission to drive on the roads. The laws of marriage that one husband shall be faithful to one wife is foundational to trust and make marriages successful. Oil cannot mix with water because the substance will not permit it to make purple you must have red and blue pigment. Even property laws that determine the boundaries of ownership and what is expected of you is written in legal terms those laws are ideas that have created boundaries.

The amount of tax you pay is relevant to what you earn and redistribution of taxes is set by the politics of the lands that determine the allocation of resources which is dependent on who is governing that has that legal authority even the kingdom of heaven had to obey certain laws for legal requirements to win back the right to have access on the earth and human life . Yet all the law and the prophets is fulfilled by love yet love itself has boundaries by defining what love is and what love is not if the formular is exact love never fails. We have so many problems on this earth and if we got down to the root of every violation of boundaries we will find that it is always going against the law of love. This is why we should always spend time meditating on the meaning of all the dimensions of love and to inculcate them into our patterns. It is a way of thinking and living but love has boundaries by its definitions think of how god fashioned the earth he focused on different parts of its creation by separating he made something new that is a principle for life by the laws we apply to every facet of life determines how we shape life.

Just as the ocean does not go onto dry land is like the boundaries we set love does not give access to everything it is defined by the law of difference God gave Adam and eve instruction he said till the land and keep it rebellion to that instruction would create disorder because principles of truth bring order he said do not eat of the fruit they ate in their heart before they ate physically because they were dominated by an outside thing. Our no and our yes must be firm to keep the land of our life that is what creates law and order is boundaries. If the stop sign is determined for the ocean so is our no stopping what must not have access and our yes gives permission by the agreements we make. We are sovereign when we walk in freedom according to boundaries truth has boundaries you do not open the door to a lion because you know it is dangerous this is why truth is foundational for life . Truth is multifaceted by defining what truth is we define what it is not truth and love are synonyms just as law and order are the same as boundaries.

That is why we can point to the stars and differentiate them from the night sky or the day because we can see physically what it is and what it is not. But just as a diamond glistens multiple colors when it catches different lights yet it is one though we see colors of different appearances as it is turned is like the truth it is not just black and white except all the colour of the light are absent of black. Your eyes do not get oxygen from your body but from the atmosphere because the eyes are the part of the body that does not have blood vessels otherwise we couldn’t see it would interfere with the retina that is another biological law that create functionality of an eye . If those laws were not set in place we would not have vision . The deeper we go with everything we research we will find that its functionality comes by law and order so truth has boundaries the law of love is the greatest of all. Love never fails.
