TREASURES OF GRACE

WRITTEN BY DR. JOEL DABBAS

TOPIC: THE GOD THAT ANSWERS

SCRIPTURE: And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the Lord : and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken - 1 Kings 18:24 

Everyday and everywhere questions keep arrising that demands urgent answers. Some answers can be far reaching and carries "atomic" like effect in that it has massive effect. Some answers can settle generational questions, that can produce generational and even transgenerational rest; it can give answers to national issues and so forth. No matter the issues and the questions sorrounding your life, God has the right and absolute answer to them all.

From our anchor text, there are two set of people: those who were looking up to Baal for answers and another calling on God for answers. The former cried from morning until evening, cutting and injuring themselves in search of answers but didn't receive any. But as soon as Elijah called unto God there was an instant answer. The meaning is that: there are those looking for answers from the wrong source, answers from where answers don't exist.

Child of God, the questions might be overwhelming but God has the answer.

The pain might be excruciating beloved God has the healing.

The result might be shameful and awful but God can turn every mess around.

Your assignment today is to call unto Him and He will answer you.

I decree supernatural happenings in your life from today. Receive supernatural and unprecedented answers to any age long questions in Jesus' Name.

REMEMBER, God answers.

WHAT TO DO: Set your heart on the God of all answers. Trust in Him to deliver answers to that puzzle(s) of your life

QUOTE: "Not all answers brings solutions, some answers are just mere paliatives but Gods' answer(s) is/are eternally absolute" - Dr. Joel Dabbas

PROPHETIC PRAYER: Father! Turn the major questions of my life into enviable testimonies in Jesus' Name.

TOPIC: GOD WHO ENLARGES ME

 TEXT:"God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant." Genesis 9:27

God has no business with smallness, He does not want you small in anyway. God did not design your destiny to be small. 

From the anchor text note that:

 1.God has the capacity to enlarge you:

"God shall enlarge Japheth..." 

That ministry, business, gifting, influence and so on can be enlarged by God. The meaning of this is that wherever God is found enlargement/expansion will be the order of the day.

 2. The impact of supernatural expansion is visible and notable:

"...he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant."

The effect of supernatural expansion is visible and feelable. It is undeniable.

The anointing and grace that makes men bigger than what they use to be. That power that enlarged the territories of Jabez is coming upon you in Jesus' name.

 PRAYER : I decree that no limit and stagnancy in my life in Jesus name.

THE GIVER

TOPIC: THE GIVER

SCRIPTURE: "Give and it shall be given unto you..." - Matthew 7:7

There are laws that govern life and if you must enjoy and function to your full capacity you must learn to apply these laws.
From the anchor Scripture it is clear that reciving is tied to giving. I call it the giving and recieving cycle. Your giving always unlocks recieving.
Think of it, how many people have given you gifts this year? How many people have you given gifts this year?
Giving is like breathing for anyone to live, you must breathe in and out. In medicine whenever a person can only take in air and not breathe out life is at risk and highly threatened. Life can end when one only take in oxygen and refuse to give out carbondioxide. That is how it is with giving.
Anyone who does not like to give is attacking and reducing capacity to recieve. Life is not for hoarders but for declutterers.
People who carry 'have it all' mentality can never have it. Those who also have 'give me only' mentality and don't like to give out is destroying inflow.
Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days (Ecclesiastes 11:1).
Who to give to:

1. Give unto those in the household of faith.

2. Give to your family.

3. Give to your parents:  Ex. 20:12 " Honour your father and your mother..." One way to honour parents is to give to your parents. Giving unto parents is a trigger of blessing (Gen. 27:7).

4. Give to orphans and less previleged: "He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; and that which he hath given will he pay him again"(Prov. 19:17).

5. Give to support kingdom projects.

6. Give to your pastor, prophets and those who labour on the word for you: We are in a generation where people do not value Gods servants. People move around with perverted ideas and abuse kingdom principles set by God to establish them. It is mandatory to be a channel of blessing by giving to those who water your spirit with the genuine words of truth (1Cor. 9:11).

THE VALUE OF GIVING

1. Givers are rivers of hope, joy and happiness.

2. When you give, you become an extension to other people's lives.

3. Giving makes you an outreach: To touch lives is to give.

4. Giving to Gods children who are in need is giving directly to God (Matt. 25:45).

5. It gives glory to God (Maty. 5:16).

Key note: If you must recieve then give.

FORGIVENESS

The beauty of the body (the Church) lies in the power of forgiveness.
Look at it this way everyone that is born again is someone whose sins were forgiven. So what made you saved is forgiveness and what will keep you saved is forgiveness. That is why Jesus commanded that forgiveness should be a continuum. Matthew 18: 21-22 "Then came Peter to him, abd said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and i should forgive him? Till seven times? Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seventy."
In medical term Jesus was giving a subscription saying forgiveness should be ad libitum.
READ More: Matthew 18 23-35.

Three things to note about forgiveness
1. It is the nature of God
2. It is the platform from which mercy flows
3. It is the power that connects you to the fruit of the spirit (peace and joy)
4. It is Gods way of handling human to human relationship and God to man relationship crisis.
A healthy spiritual and physical life is traceabke to forgiveness.

Prayer: Lord if You forgave and forgot my sins, today i also forgive and forget all that men did to me in Jesus name.

Advice: Today forgive

TOPIC: KNOW THE TRUTH

SCRIPTURE: And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free - John 8:32

KEY THOUGHT: God's word is divine revelation for your revolution.

From todays' anchor Scripture it is confirmed that freedom is possible when the truth is known. It means that deliverance is tied to the knowledge of the truth.
What is the truth? The Bible in John 14:6, Jesus says "I am the way, the truth and the life..." So Jesus is the truth. You must know Him to get freedom.
To know here is to come to an experiential manifestation of His personality. It is to develop a peesonal relationship with Christ. It is to come into deep revelation of the truth. It is not to cram or have head knowledge of Christ. Because that is where many people are now. They know Him by history and not by real time.
The danger of knowing the truth based on head knowledge and not by revelation is/are:

1. You will be familiar with the truth: Many are so familiar with God's word which is the truth. Familiarity with the word of God breeds the spirit of religion which extinquishes the power of God in our lives.

2. You won't value the truth: When value is lost, profit is lost. Many have not been able to profit from the word because the have lost value for the word.

3. You can't replicate nor apply the truth.

4. It won't seat nor take root in you.

My counsel to you taday is that you align with the Holy Ghost the custodian of the truth and He will bring you into intimacy and partnership with the Lord.
Finally, develop an intense hunger and be determined to know Jesus Christ (1 Cor. 2:2)

WHAT TO DO: Develop a strong desire to know God in levels you have never before.

PRAYER: Lord i want to know You in Jesus' name.

LIKE GRASSHOPPERS

TOPIC: LIKE GRASSHOPPERS

SCRIPTURE: And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in pur own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight - Numbers 13:33

KEY THOUGHT: Who are you and where you?

Let me tell you that the appearance of a person is in what they think of themselves. The way you see yourself in your mind that is who you are.  But there is a greater influence of how your mind operates and that is the influence it creates on your character and attitude. Your behaviour is the flow of your internal person to the outside.
From today's anchor Scripture we see a people who say they are like grasshoppers and truly there are people today who are like grasshoppers because that is their mentality.
What is/are the features of this kind of people?
1. Mimicry: The grasshopper personality functions this way. What does this mean or what is the implication?
a. It means or implies that you are never original: You are unique and exceptional. God made you to be you maintain your original identity don't become a caricature.
b. It means or implies that such a person is a photocopy not a realcopy: Identity lost is reality lost.  It is destiny misplaced. God framed you for a purpose don't be pressured to mutate or change it. Trying to be what God didn't create you to be is to expose yourself to problems this is because imitation brings irritation.
2. Hop from grass to grass: One character of the grasshopper is hopping from grass to grass and field to field. They move from place to place. There are believers who jump from church to church they have no spiritual legacy and no spiritual walk. Such a person can never grow because growth is empowered by stability and depth. Depth determines your height and your height determines your reach.  Instability is a syndrome and factor that attacks spiritual growth.
God does nothing tangible with unstable and inconsistent people.
My counsel today is that don't be an 'all weather' believer, be who God wants you to be and impact your world for God.

WHAT TO DO: Decide not to be double standard in everyway.

PRAYER POINT: Father! Deliver me from double standard living in Jesus' Name.
