Some people are disappointed in their marriages, Some,in their children, some are even disappointed in themselves, while many others are disappointed in God.

THE AROMA OF LIFE. 2Corth: 2; 14-16. Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place. 15, For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.16, To the one, we are aroma of death leading to death, and to the other the aroma of life leading to life.... In ancient tradition of Rome, after the roman soldiers fights and conquers an enemy's territory, everything and everyone is killed except the King, their nobles and every precious valuables, and historic items which the Soldiers takes back home as memorial of their conquest. The Emperor of Rome now sets up a date to parade the conquered king and his noble round the city square, tired to Chariots to be executed in the public after the parade. This parade was referred to in roman ancient language as, 'Triunmbuasis,' from where the English word 'Triumphant' is derived; which simply means, 'Public Show.' Paul captured this event when he wrote Col:2;15; "and Jesus, having disarmed Principalities and Powers, He made a Public Show of them, Triumphing over them in it." Hallelujah!! Prior to kick-off time of this Public Show, the Roman Soldiers will shoot canon of incense several times into the air so much so that the Aroma of the incense would fill the air that no matter where you are in the City, You can't miss the smell of the aroma. When the Romans perceives the aroma of the incense in their homes, there would be great rejoicing all over the city as that signifies a total annihilation of their enemies and complete deliverance from enemies's attacks. But when the conquered King and his nobles perceives the aroma of the incense, they would start weeping because it signifies a moment of their death. Child of the most high God, I hear the sounds of weeping in the camp of your destiny captors this month! I see the enemies that have limited you from moving forward tired on the chariots of death by the heavenly assizes so that you can start matching forward in life, this month of 'March.' I hear the Emperor of heaven declaring that your victory is now! I see the Hosts of heaven releasing the aroma of incense in your atmosphere, cheering and rejoicing with you this month of March. I prophesy that the last whistle of this month will not blow until you secure your Victory. It's time to be an aroma of life to everything that is dying around you. Rejoice!! and again, I say, Rejoice!! and Match into greatness this month of March, Hallelujah!!!

THE KING IS CALLING YOU! (2) Gen:41 Joseph had been in prison for twelve years. The closest he could get to his freedom was the solid iron prison gate that separates him from this sinful world. I still wonder how Joseph survived this ordeal with no family, no friends to visit him in prison and virtually no visible sign of rescue. I can clearly identify with Joseph's situation. I remember being imprisoned in Mauritania for attempting to start underground fellowship and secre...tly inviting people to meetings in the streets of Nouakchott. There is a complete feeling of rejection and hopelessness when nobody identifies with you in times of trouble. Have you ever looked back and wondered how you made it through visible and invisible limitations in life and how far God has helped you through these many years? Life throws different challenges at us and Joseph was having a dose of unfair share of his life's challenge. He had to wait for God to vindicate him, night after night, day after day, everything remained the same: same prison uniform, same room, same environment, same people, same colour, same daily experience but an inward complete transformation that comes from God, Hallelujah! Suddenly, on this fateful day, Joseph was wakened by the strange noise coming from the precipitate knocking of the boots of Pharaoh's foot soldiers, he must have thought to himself; 'this is my end!' Yes! it was not his end, but the end of his crises for they said unto him, "The King is calling You!" Same day, Same time, same Moment, his life takes a different turn, he shaves his bushy bears, had a good shower, changes his prison uniform for the first time in twelve years, rides on one of the Kings chariots, changes his location from prison to palace dined and wined with the King and his nobles and before the end of the day, there was a Breaking News making round the entire city of Egypt; " JOSEPH, the New Prime Minister of Egypt!" Beloved Brother/Sister, I don't know the kind of prison the enemy has abandoned you these many years, the hopeless, the shame, the rejection, the confusion, the loneliness, the frustrations , the disappointment, the struggles. 'Now, listen to the breaking News, "The King of kings is calling you!" The everlasting King, The soon coming King, The Lord of Lords, The God of impossibility, The Christ with whom there is no crises, is calling you today! He specialises in turning sinners to saints and can deliver from gutter most to the upper most. He is the only one that can turn and change your prolonged situation within a day. He's the God of Joseph, you can make him your God and you will never be the same again! Just close your eyes open your mouth and invite Him into your life for a life long encounter, " Now!!!!"

THE KING IS CALLING YOU! part (1) Joseph interpreted peoples dreams, but could not interpret his own dreams. He could not understand why an innocent man like him should end up in shame, dishonour, disgrace, and in prison for choosing to live right. He was mistreated, maliciously separated from the love of his father and sold into slavery by his own blood brothers. His Master's wife wrongly accused him of assault and attempted rape. He was mocked by fellow slaves for being pr...omiscuous, judged by the laws of the land without opportunity to a fair hearing. He was jailed by his master whom he loved dearly and served with the integrity of his heart and unbroken loyalty. He was abandoned and forgotten in prison by his fellow prisoners who promised help in return to the favour of interpreting their dreams. To Joseph, "life was unfair!" Joseph had virtually lost everything that mattered in his life, including his reputation, self esteem, his identity, his position and a prestigious job at potiphar's house but the grace of God lingered still with him. Child of God, until you loose all that this world has to offer, you cannot completely access all that God has in store for you. Some times, God empties you of every earthly treasures, so He can fill you with Himself. Sometimes, God removes every other things you are unconsciously placing your trust on so that you can learn to trust Him. He sometimes removes your provision so that you can discover that He is a great provider. He sometimes allows you to be left all alone in the prison so He can have you all to Himself. I don't know where you have found yourself right now, what condition you are at right now, God says to tell you that, "He will NEVER leave you nor forsake you and will always be your helper." To be cont.....

DOWN BUT NOT OUT! When God knocked down Daniel in Dn: 10;8, it was because He wanted to bless him with Revelation and answered prayers after 21days of fasting and prayer. Have you been praying and fasting since January this year for just a blessing and is like the year is almost coming to an end without any visible manifestation? Have you lost strength and energy to continue as life keeps you on the ground, abandoned by those who used to support you?... Child of God, it is in the place of your weakness that God takes over your battles. It is in the place of your weakness that God manifests His strength. In the place of your weakness, God refills you with strength to confront the next level of your challenge. It is in the place of your fall that God reveals those who are and those not with you. It's in the place of your fall that you receive the holy Ghost training and experience for your ministry. In your place of fall, God helps to unveil the sleeping giant in you. God says to tell you that "sorrow may last through the night, but joy comes with the morning." Hallelujah! I see a mighty hand stretched towards those affliction in your life, those mountains in your destiny, those reproach, those set backs, those limitations and a voice declaring your victory, your triumph this month. I hear the shout of joy and dancing before the end of this month. Stamp your feet on the ground and say, 'I receive it IJN!' Happy new Month!!
