 SEED OF TRANSFORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL                                          *WHEN REALITIES CONTRADICTS THE DREAMS* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  20 May 2026: Share* SCRIPTURE: And we know that all things work together for Good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His Purpose - *‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:28‬ ‭KJV‬‬* *It is highly exciting to receive Dreams or Prophecies of Greatness but very discouraging when such Dreams or Prophecies are followed by contrary events.* Joseph had Dreams of Greatness, and because of this, hell was let loose on him.  Shortly after his Dream, he suffered the loss of his coat of many colours.  Thereafter, he was also thrown in a well that had no water.  Help came his way, and he came out of the well but was then sold into Slavery.  He found himself in Potiphar's house, but the devil struck again, and he found him...

 *THE SECRET OF CHURCH GROWTH*  Acts 2:47 – “And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.” Church growth is not by accident. It is not by noise, buildings, or popularity. According to Scripture, God is the One who gives increase (1 Corinthians 3:6). However, there are divine principles that position a church for growth. Let us look at the secrets of church growth. 1. Prayer – The Foundation of Growth  Acts 1:14 – “These all continued with one accord in prayer…” Before Pentecost, there was prayer. Before the 3,000 souls were added, there was prayer. A praying church is a growing church. Prayer invites the Holy Spirit. Prayer breaks spiritual resistance.  No church grows beyond its prayer altar. 2. The Presence and Power of the Holy Spirit  Zechariah 4:6 – “Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit…” Programs cannot replace the Spirit. Strategies cannot replace the anointing. In Acts 2, when the Holy Ghost came, the church exploded in growth....

 *THE MAJOR SECRET OF GREAT MEN AND WOMEN IN THE BIBLE* Great men and women in the Bible did not become great by accident. Their greatness was rooted in spiritual principles. Here are the major secrets that distinguished them: 1. Intimacy with God Secret: They had a deep personal relationship with God. Moses – Spoke with God face to face (Exodus 33:11). David – A man after God’s own heart (Acts 13:22). Daniel – Prayed three times daily (Daniel 6:10).  Greatness begins with knowing God intimately, not just working for Him. 2. Unwavering Faith Secret: They believed God even when circumstances were impossible. Abraham – Believed God against hope (Romans 4:18–21). Esther – Risked her life by faith (Esther 4:16). The woman with the issue of blood – Her faith made her whole (Mark 5:34).  Faith activates divine possibilities. 3. Obedience to God’s Instructions Secret: They obeyed even when it was difficult. Noah – Built the ark in obedience (Genesis 6:22). Peter – Cast his net a...

 SEED OF TRANSFORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL                                          *SOLUTION PRECEEDS PROBLEM* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  19 May 2026:Share* SCRIPTURE: And all that dwell upon the Earth shall Worship Him, whose names are not written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the Foundation of the world - *Revelation‬ ‭13:8‬ ‭KJV‬‬* It is highly revealing to know from the above Scriptures that the Lamb was slain from the Foundation of the Earth.  Before Adam and Eve sinned, the Lamb had been slain. Ever before sin became a Problem, Christ had been slain.  *This informs us that before sin became a Problem to Mankind, Christ had Provided a Solution.* The Bible speaking, say that, before the  Mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the Earth and the world, even from Everlasting to Everlasting, thou art God - *Psalms 90:2* *Therefore, t...

 SEED OF TRANSFORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL                                           *PARTIAL KNOWLEDGE* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  18 May 2026:Share* SCRIPTURE: My People are destroyed for lack of Knowledge: because thou hast rejected Knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no Priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the Law of thy God, I will also forget thy children - *Hosea 4:6 KJV* *One of the Greatest undoings of Believers is Partial Knowledge of who we are in Christ Jesus.* *A cursory look at the Life of John the Baptist confirms that many Challenges that overwhelm Believers are the result of Partial Knowledge of their Identity in Christ.* People came to ask John the Baptist who he was.  They asked if he was Christ, and he answered in the Negative.  They then asked if he was Elijah, the Prophet Malachi Prophesied would come before Christ - *M...

 SEED OF TRANSFORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL                                             *NO SLOPE, NO FLOW* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  17 May 2026: Share* SCRIPTURE: It is like the Precious Ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, Even Aaron's beard: That went down to the skirts of his Garments - *Psalm‬s ‭133:2‬ ‭KJV‬‬* *Rivers flow from a higher Point to a lower Point.* Similarly, from the Scriptures above, Anointing flows from a higher to a lower Point.  The Anointing flows down from the head to the beard and runs down to the skirts.  *Therefore, where there is no Slope, there will be no flow.* *This underlines the Truth that until we are emptied of self, God's Grace can't flow to us.*  John the Baptist said, I must decrease that He increases - *John 3:30* *Consequently, only those who acknowledge their inadequacies enjoy God's Grace.* The...
