Ephesians 6:1-2 (AKJV)

Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise.

The Word of God is clear when it gives instruction about the relationship between children and their parents. I want you to take note how verses 1 and 2 speak of two different sets of parents. These verses are not repetitive; rather, there is a lesson to be learnt there. The first verse talks about obeying your spiritual parents that God has placed over you, and verse two talks about your biological parents.

When you dishonour your parents, both spiritual and biological, it affects your life negatively. Success may come, but it can be fleeting, with cycles of ups and downs, losses, and instability. Honouring your parents is a divine instruction that guarantees a pleasant life! Honour them today!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

From today, I shall put even more effort into obeying and honouring my spiritual and biological parents. As they bless and watch over me, my life is set on the right course, and I am winning in everything in Jesus’ Name! Amen.

And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.


Have you ever seen a drunkard go about his day? He may see a rubbish pile and happily sink into it thinking it’s a bed, or push a man in a wheelchair expecting him to run. While we don't condone drunkenness, there’s a lesson to learn here.

(Ephesians 5:18) says, “...be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit.” There’s a reason Scripture draws this comparison. A drunkard doesn't see like others do. He's not in control of his actions; the alcohol is. Likewise, when you're filled with the Spirit, you're under His influence. You surrender control of your life to Him, and He begins to lead. You start to see differently, speak with power, and declare supernatural miracles that surely manifest. Decide to make every day this year a Spirit-filled day.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

As a spirit-filled being, I look into my 2026 and see smooth sailing and an abundance of testimonies in Jesus’ Name! Amen.

Isaiah 43:18 (NIV)

Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.

One of the devil’s favourite strategies is to plant thoughts in your mind. He’ll tell you how bad you are, how you’ll never amount to anything, and repeat this over and over until you believe every one of his lies.

When he told Eve she would be like God if she ate of the fruit, that was not Eve’s thought, it came from Satan himself! Remember how he once said, “I will make myself like the Most High”? He was planting that same idea into Eve!

Be mindful of the devil and his methods. He’ll plant thoughts of lust, suicide, and greed in you, and if you’re not mindful, you’ll eventually act on them. Once you’ve acted on them, he’ll do whatever it takes to keep you there. Don’t let him live rent-free in your mind, get him out of your head!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I remove every evil thought that is not of God from my mind. Every plan for my downfall is terminated at take-off, in Jesus’ Name! Amen.

Mark 10:48 (KJV)

And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.

I often say, “Quiet Christians die quietly.” The blind man’s story beautifully illustrates this. Church members told him to be quiet, but he cried out even louder.

Today, we have weak Christians who will quit attending church just because someone looked at them the wrong way. Many people want their miracle, but few are willing to actively pursue it because they're afraid of what others will think. They can’t even shout “Amen” because they believe it’ll draw too much attention to themselves.

This blind man, however, didn’t care about what other church members thought, his focus was on Jesus alone. He saw his miracle in Jesus, and by his bold shout, he was delivered!

Shout your way into a special unction today, somebody!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I shout my way to spiritual growth, to healing, to healthy bank accounts, to a blissful marriage, to success untold in Jesus’ Name!

Matthew 3:12 (KJV)

His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor and gather his wheat into the barn, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.

When you walk down a bakery aisle, it’s hard to ignore the aroma of freshly baked bread and the variety on display. But before that glamour comes a vital process: threshing, the separation of wheat from chaff to produce usable flour.

Today’s verse points us to the spiritual threshing floor. In the realm of the spirit, this is where purification happens. It’s where surgeries take place, removing wrong friendships, cutting off addictions, and stripping toxic mindsets. On the threshing floor, it’s just you and God, it’s a change of season, and a recommitment to all things Kingdom.

This is your season of transformation. As you step onto God’s threshing floor, a strange oil for exploits is flowing on you now!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

On this threshing floor, I allow the Spirit of God to remove everything in me that is contrary to God’s Word. I command every shadow of darkness to leave me now in Jesus’ Name!

Ecclesiastes 10:8 (KJV)

He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.

Over the years, I’ve been asked if curses and spells can affect a Christian. My answer remains the same: when you’re born again, you inherit blessings, not curses. No born-again Christian should suffer curses; that's a malfunction. If you stay in the Word and live by God’s principles, you're automatically protected from the enemy’s schemes.

So why do some Christians wallow in curses? Today’s verse holds the key: living outside the Word opens doors to the snakes. They’ve broken the hedge, giving snakes legal access to their lives. (Proverbs 26:2) says, “...the curse causeless shall not come.” Meaning, if it comes, there was a cause.

Stay in the Word this year. Strange oil will only flow freely if the hedge remains intact.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

Any spell or curse spoken over my family and me is broken in the Name of Jesus! I choose to stay soaked up in the Word of God from today. My hedge is intact!

Hebrews 8:5 (KJV)

Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.

When you examine the Bible, patterns emerge throughout the Old and New Testaments. Great men and women of faith followed a certain order and got results. Just as (Hebrews 11:32-33) notes, they “stopped the mouths of lions” by relentless faith.

Today’s scripture reveals that God works with patterns. He has a prescribed order for doing things. If faith produced results in Bible times, it still does today. Faith is an order, a pattern that guarantees results. When you follow the pattern of faith proven by men of old in the Word of God, things become remarkably easier for you.

Follow the proven pattern of faith; begin to frame the perfect day right now. See it, believe it, and act on it. That’s the pattern.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I restructure my world to be the best it’s ever been. By faith, I do not lack, I am not sick, and prosperity is my portion in this Year of Strange Oil in Jesus’ Name!

Proverbs 3:5 (KJV)

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

One of my favourite scriptures pertaining to faith and trust in God comes from Abraham, the patriarch of old. Here’s what the scripture says, “By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.” (Hebrews 11:8).

Just imagine for a moment, God telling you to leave everything you’ve known and start walking in any direction, no given plan, no map, no lump sum of cash to walk with, nothing! Talk about trusting God to the extent where it’s no longer about your qualifications, your connections or your own intelligence. This is where today’s verse comes in. Never say “I have it all figured out”. God has the complete blueprint for your life, trust Him with it, He drafted it!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

From today, I commit my plans, aspirations, and desires fully to God. I shall follow His leading in everything that pertains to me and by this, failure dies by fire in Jesus’ Name!
