1st January, Monday QUALIFY FOR WEALTH TRANSFER

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“The Lord spoke to Abram, saying, ‘Leave your country, family, and your
father’s house, and go to a land I will show you. I will make you a great
nation, bless you, and make your name great, and you shall be a
blessing.’” - Genesis 12:1-2 (NKJV) Revelation:

The Lord has said to me that this year 2024, is a year of wealth transfer. I
know that God will fulfil His word. However, God operates in patterns and
considers people’s intentions. For a miracle to occur, there must be a need
and a purpose. To qualify for wealth transfer, one must align with God’s
intended purpose. Wealth transfer implies that wealth currently belongs to
someone else, but God intends to transfer it into your hands. In this year,
wealth will shift from the hands of the wicked and come to you, just as it
happened with Abram. He was in Haran with his family when the Lord
instructed him to leave that place and go to a new land.

Abram obeyed, came to Canaan, and God promised him the land. However, a
famine struck the land, and Abram went to Egypt. You may encounter
difficulties in your journey, even when you are where the Lord has led you.
Your challenges can be a platform for wealth transfer.

Genesis 12:16 (NKJV) states, “He treated Abram well for her sake. He had
sheep, oxen, male donkeys, male and female servants, female donkeys, and
camels.” Similarly, the difficulties in your life can pave the way for wealth 6

transfer. When Abram left Canaan for Egypt, he was afraid of the men in
Egypt because of how beautiful his wife Sarai was. They devised a plan for
Sarai to pretend she was his sister, which led to wealth transferring from the
Egyptians to Abram.

Going Deeper:

Genesis 13:1-2 | 1 Kings 6:20-22 | Proverbs 13:22.

Prophetic Action:

Just as Abram was blessed to be a blessing, examine your motives for


seeking wealth. God assesses your intentions before qualifying you for
wealth transfer. Are you generous in your giving to the church?

Prayer:

Almighty God, I thank You for this year, designated as the year of wealth
transfer. I appreciate that my purpose aligns with Yours, making me eligible
for wealth transfer.

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:

“When God wanted to bless Abraham, He told Abraham that he needed to


move out from Terah- His Father’s house
“ (Genesis 12:1). The reason for this is revealed in the book of Joshua,
where we are brought to the knowledge that Terah used to worship foreign
gods.” – “Breaking Family Curses” by Prophet Shepherd Bushiri (PSB,
2018, pg. 36) 7

2nd January, Tuesday TAKE STEPS TO ACHIEVE YOUR VISION

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“The Lord answered, ‘Write down your vision, make it clear on tablets, so
that those who read it may run with it. The vision has an appointed time;
though it may delay, wait for it, for it will surely come; it will not delay.’”
- Habakkuk 2:2-3 (NKJV) Revelation:

A vision (Hazon) is a mental image of what you desire to achieve. It


represents your dream for the future, a goal you strive to attain. Having a
vision is crucial as you embark on this new year because it provides
direction and purpose. It keeps you motivated and focused, regardless of
circumstances. When you have a vision, you know what you are working
towards, increasing the likelihood of achieving it. As the Scripture above
indicates, “write down your vision.”

In Philippians 3:13-14, the Apostle Paul emphasises determination regarding


our vision: “Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have
taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind, straining
toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal...” This passage
underscores the importance of keeping your eyes fixed on the goal and
pursuing it with determination. In the year of wealth transfer, align your
vision with God’s plan, and you can start developing a plan to achieve it.

Going Deeper:

Proverbs 19:21 | Exodus 18:17 | Psalms 20:4.

Prophetic Action:
Make a deliberate effort to align your vision with God’s will for the year
2024. Spend time in prayer and Bible study to gain insight into God’s
intentions for your life. In this year, commit to taking courageous steps
toward realising your vision.

Prayer:

Dear God, help me align my vision with Your purpose for the year of wealth
transfer. Show me what You want me to accomplish and grant me the
wisdom, strength, and resources needed to achieve it, in the Name of Jesus
Christ. Amen.

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:

“Noema is bringing to pass what you have been envisioning in your mind.
Noema is when you fore prepare. You lay out

“all the necessities and have a complete picture of the aim.

Even without money, you begin to put structures into place.”

“Rayon Anointing” by Prophet Shepherd Bushiri (PSB, 2017, pg.79)

3rd January, Wednesday THE GOSPEL MUST BE FINANCED

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to
every creature.” - Mark 16:15 (NKJV) Revelation:

Before ascending to heaven, Jesus commanded His disciples to go into the


world and preach the Gospel to every creature. This is the great commission,
and as believers, our mandate is to spread the Gospel. However, taking the
Gospel to the ends of the earth requires significant financial resources. By
God’s grace, I have had the privilege of conducting many crusades in various
parts of the world. In these crusades, people are healed, the Gospel is
proclaimed, and many come to accept Jesus Christ. However, it takes
finances to organise these events, including airfare, accommodations, venue
expenses, and equipment.

Our ministry has also been blessed with Prophetic Channel Television, a
platform through which the Gospel reaches many. Sustaining this television
station requires substantial financial support. Without adequate resources, we
cannot maintain the channel. That’s why the Lord has promised a wealth
transfer to the church this year. Our sphere of influence must significantly
expand if we are to spread the Gospel to all corners of the world. Gospel
outreach must be financially supported. Jesus once answered the disciples’
question about the signs of the end 10

times by saying, “But before the end comes, the Gospel must be preached to
all peoples” (Mark 13:10 GNT). The Gospel must be financed for the
message to reach all people and for the rapture to occur.

Going Deeper:

1 Samuel 2:7-8 | Luke 8:1-3 | Matthew 27:57-60

Prophetic Action:

Examine your passion for lost souls and your commitment to the Gospel.
Your heart’s desire should be aligned with the mission of spreading the
Gospel. God will not release financial resources without a clear purpose,
and your purpose must align with His divine agenda. If you desire to
participate in the wealth transfer, prioritise the Kingdom of God.

Prayer:

Jehovah Jireh, the provider, I thank You for being the source of my wealth.
Help me align my purposes with Yours, Father, so that I can partake in the
wealth transfer in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri: The Spirit of God


influences the thought process to reason from God’s standpoint, and not
from that of unsaved men.

“When we accept Christ’s gift of salvation (Ephesians 2:8-10), it is both a


one-time decision as well as a daily conscious commitment.”- “The Jesus
Nation” by Prophet Shepherd Bushiri (PSB, 2021, pg.133)

4th January, Thursday IN THE BEGINNING

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’
or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and
your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first His
kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as
well.”

- Matthew 6:31-33 (NIV)

Revelation:

Setting your priorities right at the beginning of the year is crucial for success.
Matthew 6:33 states,

“But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things
will be given to you as well.” This passage emphasises the importance of
making God’s Kingdom your top priority. When you seek God first, He will
provide everything you need. Many believers make the mistake of
prioritising material wealth, relationships, or personal breakthroughs over
seeking God’s Kingdom. In the beginning of this year, make a conscious
decision to prioritise God’s Kingdom above all else.

When you start with God as your top priority, you can trust that He will
empower you to succeed in all your endeavours. He will grant you wisdom,
strength, and courage to overcome any challenges you face. Whether it is
your business, marriage, or career aspirations, let God be the central focus.
The material possessions and desires you seek will become add-ons when
you prioritise seeking God and His righteousness. As this year begins, make
12

Jesus Christ your highest priority.

Going Deeper:

Proverbs 3:5-6 | Psalm 34:10 | Jeremiah 29:11.

Prophetic Action:

Follow the guidance of Proverbs 3:5-6, which encourages you to trust in the
Lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding, and submit to
His will.

Put God first in everything you do, trust Him to guide and lead you, and He
will bless your life and make your paths straight in this year.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the message today.

Help me set my priorities right for this year. May the Holy Spirit guide every
step of my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen!

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:

“A well able mindset marks the difference between a victor and a victim,
between more than a conqueror and the

“conquered. One’s mindset will either set you up as a winner or a looser.”


– “The Jesus Nation” by Prophet Shepherd Bushiri PSB, 2021, pg.135)

5th January, Friday PREPARE YOUR FIRST FRUIT


Prophetic Word of the Day:

“The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of
the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother’s milk.” –
Exodus 23:19 (KJV) Revelation:

The kingdom of God functions orderly, with systems, structures, and laws
God outlines. These ensure our correct positioning to receive from His
abundance. The Bible instructs, “But everything must be done in a proper
and orderly manner” (1 Corinthians 14:40 BSB). God’s systems benefit His
people. In this year of wealth transfer, it is wisdom to connect to abundance
as you prepare to give first fruits in this first month of January.

The Bible instructs, “Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the
firstfruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and
thy presses shall burst out with new wine” (Proverbs 3:9-10 KJV). First
fruit means the first of your annual earnings. Thus, your initial salary, stipend,
or business profits in January should be dedicated to God, honouring our sole
provider. The Bible promises that offering our first fruit ensures our barns
(bank accounts, investments, and provisions) overflow and our efforts in
2024 flourish with abundance. First fruit is a mystery, as offering God the
first secures the rest!

Going Deeper:

Ezekiel 44:30 | Romans 11:16 | Leviticus 23:20

14

Prophetic Action: Nehemiah 10:34 (BSB) teaches that first fruit is God’s
system for ensuring our blessings are the best and are preserved. Prepare to
offer your year’s first fruit. Also, prepare through prayer to resist temptation
and secure your wealth transfer in 2024! Plan your finances in advance to
secure your blessing.

Prayer:
Father, in Jesus’ Name, I am grateful for the first fruit revelation. Guide me to
plan my finances wisely. As I give my first fruit offering this month, Lord
honour me and bless all my finances this year, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:

eat the best of the land. - “Prophetic Codes” by

“Prophet Shepherd Bushiri (PSB 2018, pg. 73) 15

6th January, Saturday TRAIN YOUR MIND

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“Casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against
the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the
obedience of Christ.”

- 2 Corinthians 10:5 (NKJV)

Revelation:

We have entered a new year, and the Lord has designated it as a season of
wealth transfer, signifying that wealth from the world will now be transferred
to the children of God. As a member of the Jesus Nation, it is not only
important to receive this wealth transfer but also to think about how to
maintain and grow this wealth for future generations. This process will not
only require significant effort from you, but you need to also acquire skills
that will enable you to manage and grow the wealth.

Throughout this entire process, your mindset will pose the greatest challenge.

You must train your mind for what lies ahead. It is easy to get distracted and
deviate from God’s plans, which is why Jesus said in Matthew 26:41 that
“the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Your mind is like a computer
that can be reprogrammed to align with your goals and intentions.
While it may not be easy, Philippians 4:13 tells us, “I can do all things
through Christ who strengthens me.” In other words, the strength given to
you by Christ allows you to reprogram your mind and adopt new habits.

16

Going Deeper:

Psalm 27:8-9 | 1 Chronicles 16:11 | 2 Corinthians 10:5.

Prophetic Action:

Recognise that the wealth you are about to receive comes with new
challenges that you must be prepared to overcome. Let go of old thought
patterns and educate yourself about wealth management. Live according to
the principles declared in God’s Word regarding wealth.

Surround yourself with like-minded individuals who share your beliefs and
aspirations. Above all, maintain a life of prayer.

Prayer:

Thank You, Father, for the wealth You have entrusted to me. Grant me the
wisdom to manage this wealth and help me achieve what You have planned
for me to do with it, in the Name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Mary Bushiri:

“Make a decision today to focus on what God says about every situation
you encounter, and you will win the battles

“of life without fail, in Jesus’ Name.” – “You Will Win” by Prophetess
Mary Bushiri (PMB, 2017, pg.90) 17

7th January, Sunday GOD MY PROVIDER

Prophetic Word of the Day:


“God will abundantly supply all your necessities. You will always possess
all you require and have an overflow to share with others.” - 2 Corinthians
9:8 (NLT) Revelation:

Among the numerous names of God, He is recognised as Jehovah-Jireh,


meaning the provider. This is not just a title; it is His role for His beloved
children, those who are called by His name. Our prophetic message today
assures you that God will generously provide everything you require, not just
some things but everything in abundance, enough to share with others. You
may be wondering why all your needs are not consistently met. The Book of
Ephesians 3:20 in the Bible states, “Now to Him who is capable of doing
exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the
power that works in us.” What God can do for you is determined by His
power within you. How much of God’s power resides in you, and how are
you using it?

God has provided you with an instruction manual - the Bible. However, you
may not always understand how to use it. There is genuinely nothing too
difficult for God. His arm is not too short to rescue or provide, but you must
maintain communion with Him. Intimacy and faithfulness to God are crucial
factors that allow His presence to flourish within you. At times, He may lead
you to a specific business, job, 18

or connection, but if you are not attuned to His voice, you might miss it.

Going Deeper:

1 Chronicles 29:12-14 | Psalm 84:11 | 2 Chronicles 25:9

Prophetic Action:

Make it a priority to nurture your relationship with God, be attentive to His


voice, and pray for the gift of discernment to rest upon you. If you are
presently experiencing lack, remember what God has accomplished for you
in the past.
If He manifested Himself to you before, why would He not do the same
today?

Prayer:

My God, my Saviour, my Lord, and my provider.

Flourish within me and assist me in overcoming any worldly distractions that


hinder Your closeness. O Father, provide me with my daily necessities so
that I may not be enticed by the world’s schemes, in the Mighty Name of
Jesus, I pray. Amen!

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:

“The name, ‘El Shaddai’ means ‘The Many Breasted One’ or

‘The Big Breasted One.’ It describes God as being ‘all sufficient

“ and bountiful’. El Shaddai provides ‘more than enough’ for His


children’. – “The Names of God” by Prophet Shepherd Bushiri (PSB, 2018,
pg.99)

8th January, Monday THE NARROW GATE

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“To enter God’s Kingdom, one must go through the narrow gate. The road
to destruction is broad, with a wide entrance that many choose.
Conversely, the path to life is exceedingly narrow and arduous, discovered
by only a few.”

- Matthew 7:13-14 (NLT)

Revelation:
In the scripture provided, Jesus emphasises the narrowness of the path to life.
It can be disheartening to think about, wondering how one can find it when so
few do. However, the narrowness of this gate is due to there being only one
way to eternal life, while the world offers numerous paths to death, hence its
wide nature. You may ask, “What is this way to eternal life?” The answer is
found throughout the Bible. In John 14:6, Jesus declares, “I am the way, the
truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.”

In John 10:9, Jesus states, “I am the gate. If anyone enters through Me, he
will be saved, finding pasture.”

Furthermore, in John 11:25, Jesus affirms, “I am the resurrection and the


life. Whoever believes in Me will live, even though he dies.” From these
verses, we can conclude that Jesus is the narrow gate to life. The challenge
lies in fully denying oneself, carrying one’s cross, and following Jesus,
which is no easy task. The world, on the other hand, offers seemingly
appealing ways, but they ultimately lead to death.

20

Going Deeper:

John 10:9 | Acts 4:12 | Isaiah 35:8

Prophetic Action:

Deny yourself and follow Jesus. As a believer, you stand at a crossroads


with two paths before you: one leading to death and the other to life.
Although the narrow gate may seem challenging, it is the right choice. Your
flesh may desire the world’s pleasures, but they ultimately lead to
destruction.

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, You are the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
Help me walk in Your ways. Guide me away from temptation, and strengthen
me when I am weak and tempted by worldly pleasures, in Jesus’ Name, I
pray. Amen!

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri: The Spirit of God


influences the thought process to reason from God’s standpoint, and not
from that of unsaved men.

“When we accept Christ’s gift of salvation (Ephesians 2:8-10), it is both a


one-time decision as well as a daily conscious commitment.”- “The Jesus
Nation” by Prophet Shepherd Bushiri (PSB, 2021, pg.133)

21

9th January, Tuesday EMPOWERED FOR EXPLOITS

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“And the Spirit of the Lord came mightily upon him, and he tore the lion
apart as one would have torn apart a young goat, though he had nothing in
his hand. But he did not tell his father or his mother what he had done.” –
Judges 14:6 (NKJV) Revelation:

From today’s reference chapter, we discover a man named Samson. God


called him to rescue Israel from the Philistines. Later, he found a wife and
was heading to her family with his parents. On their journey, Samson met a
young lion. In the verse shown, the Spirit of God came upon him,
empowering him to effortlessly slay the lion, as though it were a young goat.
With God’s Spirit upon him, Samson conquered a challenge on his path to
destiny.

This tale teaches you that when God’s Spirit rests upon you, you can conquer
any obstacle on your journey to destiny. As we begin this year, you require
the outpouring of God’s Spirit in your life. The anointing of the Spirit will
enable you to achieve great things this year. I, as a prophet of God, pray that
the anointing of the Lord’s Spirit may rest upon and within you. May you
achieve great things this year, in the precious and powerful name of Jesus
Christ.

Going Deeper:

Daniel 11:32 | 1 Kings 18:36-39 | Judges 7:19-23

22

Prophetic Action: Seek to know God more this year. In Daniel 11:32b, the
Bible teaches that those who know God will achieve great things. Dedicate
yourself to studying God’s Word, prayer, fasting, and serving in God’s house.
Hunger for revelation and a deeper knowledge of God.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I thank You for today’s message. I am grateful for the
revelation of my Lord Jesus Christ in my life. I believe that in the year 2024,
I will achieve great things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:

demons and heal the sick. Wherever I go,

10th January, Wednesday THE BLESSING MAKETH RICH

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“The Lord’s blessing brings true riches. It adds no sorrow, for it comes
from God.” - Proverbs 10:22 (AMP) Revelation:
Our prophetic message today conveys that the Lord’s blessings bring genuine
wealth without any sorrow. This implies that there exists false wealth
accompanied by sorrow. In this year of wealth transfer, you require the
Lord’s blessings to acquire genuine wealth. The term “blessing” corresponds
to the Hebrew word berākâ, signifying prosperity, benediction, and the
invocation of goodness. The Lord affirms that this berākâ yields true wealth
and happiness. The blessing holds immense importance, as evidenced when
Jacob deceived Esau to obtain the blessing from their father Isaac. Esau
implored his father and wept, but Isaac replied, “I have already appointed
him your master, and I have made all his relatives his servants. I have
bestowed upon him grain and wine. Now, there is nothing more I can do for
you, my son!”

(Genesis 27:37 GNT).

The Church has endured disgrace and shame, and the destitute are often
associated with it. However, the Lord is presently bestowing a blessing that
will make you master over others. The Bible declares: “The rich man’s
wealth is his strong city; the destruction of the poor is their poverty”

Proverbs 10:15 NKJV. Poverty results in ruin, whereas 24

wealth provides strength and protection. This year, the Lord is liberating the
church from the devastation of poverty in Jesus’ Name. The church is
emerging as a solution in the world because the Lord will shower blessings
upon it.

Going Deeper:

Genesis 9:1-2 | Psalm 105:24 | Deuteronomy 8:18

Prophetic Action:

Have you considered your plans for utilising the wealth coming your way this
year? Without a well-devised plan of action, money will not transform into
wealth. Create a comprehensive plan and contemplate how you intend to
amass wealth for the sake of the kingdom.
Prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father, bless me abundantly today.

May Your blessings rest upon me, yielding genuine wealth devoid of sorrow.
Today, there is a complete transformation in my life in Jesus’ name.

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:

“God initiated the principle or anointing of prosperity long back in the


book of Genesis. Whenever He was blessing all

“ His creations, He was activating Tsalach. Tsalach anointing provides you


with the ability that everything you lay your hands on, succeeds.”-
“Tsalach Anointing” by Prophet Shepherd Bushiri (PSB, 2017, pg. 14) 25

11th January, Thursday ARE YOU IN CHURCH OR IN A DEN

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“It is written,” he said, “My house will be called a house of prayer, not ‘a
den of robbers.’” - Matthew 21:13 (NIV) Revelation:

In the mentioned scripture, Jesus condemns the transformation of God’s house


into a den of thieves.

“House of God” refers to any place where God’s activities are centred, not
just a building. Conversely, a den is a forsaken place, filled with despair,
where thieves, lions, beasts, and snakes’ dwell. In the house of God
mentioned by Jesus, prayer had been forsaken, resulting in its transformation
into a den.

Many were not surprised by the happenings in that church because the
wicked had control. The church should positively impact society, but in this
case, members were unknowingly in a spiritual den. The primary activity
was no longer prayer but trade. You may find yourself in a similar situation
today, seeing others testify while experiencing no change in your life. The
house of God should transform and uplift you. If it doesn’t, you might be
spiritually in a den while physically in church.

Going Deeper:

Job 37:8 | Psalm 10:9 | Genesis 28:16-19

26

Prophetic Action: Examine your prayer life and the events around you.

If you suspect you are in a spiritual den, break free by becoming prayerful
and seeking revelation.

Prayer:

Thank You, Father, for Your guidance. Today, I emerge from my spiritual den.
Transform my thoughts and revelation, Lord. Grant me the spirit of revelation
and understanding, in Jesus’ Name. Amen!

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:

“God is cal ing us to get rid of any false gods, teachings, doctrines or even
manipulations in the body of Christ. As

“ we deal with the Perizzite spirit, we automaticaly take out of operation,


the spirit of falsehood that has managed to infiltrate the body of Christ
today.” – “The Jesus Nation” by Prophet Shepherd Bushiri (PSB, 2021,
pg.192) 27

12th January, Friday GET OUT OF THE SPIRITUAL DEN

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“When all the people were baptized, and Jesus also had been baptized and
was praying, the heavens were opened.”

- Luke 3:21 (ESV)


Revelation:

Previously, I mentioned the possibility of being physically in church while


spiritually in a den.

This is a reality that many believers ignore. To determine if you’re in a


spiritual den, check your prayer life and the recurring events around you. If
you suspect you are in a spiritual den, understand that the devil fears people
with revelation. Apostle Paul advised Timothy to remember the prophetic
words spoken over him; they were his weapons against the devil.

The house of God is meant for people who have revelation. Jesus, though
God Himself, prayed while others did not. Joseph and David also had
revelation. Understand that revelation changes your thinking and behaviour.
Begin to confess and act on the prophecies spoken over your life. Prophecy
includes declarations made during services.

Make prayer a constant part of your life.

Let revelation transform your thinking and actions. Confess and act on the
prophecies in your life.

Prayer:

Father, grant me revelation through Your Word and prophecies. Release me


from any spiritual den by Your power and mercy, in Jesus’ Mighty Name.
Amen!

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Mary Bushiri:


“God is multifaceted that is why you often hear people call Him “a doctor
in the hospital and a lawyer in the courtroom.”

“God revels aspects of Himself, to His people according to the situation


they find themselves in. Pray that He may reveal not only His deeds but the
way He may reveal Himself to you as well.” – “You Will Win” by

13th January, Saturday THE SPIRIT AT WORK IN YOU

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“The Lord of hosts says: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit.’” -
Zechariah 4:6 (NKJV) Revelation:

When the Spirit of the Lord operates within you, the impossible becomes
achievable. You can accomplish things not through your own strength,
qualifications, or abilities but by His Spirit. Zerubbabel achieved greatness
not through human might or financial resources but through the Spirit of God.
Miracles unfold when God’s Spirit takes control. Mary, a virgin, conceived
through the Holy Spirit’s intervention: “The Holy Spirit will come upon you,
and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, the Holy One
born will be called the Son of God” Luke 1:35 NKJV.

If you face insurmountable challenges, let the Holy Spirit overshadow you,
enabling you to accomplish things beyond your capability, guided by God’s
Spirit. Jesus performed miracles and cast out demons because the Holy Spirit
was at work in His life: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me because He has
anointed Me to preach the Gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the
brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and recovery of sight to
the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed” (Luke 4:18

NKJV). Similarly, all you need for miracles is the Spirit of God.

Prayer:

Holy Spirit, I need Your presence more than ever. Take control of my entire
being and work miracles in my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen!

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:

“It is the supernatural ability of God through the Holy Spirit to speak in

speaking in tongues.”- “Tongues” by Prophet Shepherd Bushiri (PSB, 2015
pg. 81) 31

14th January, Sunday SUPERNATURAL WEALTH TRANSFER

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, says the Lord of Heaven’s
Armies.” - Haggai 2:8 (NLT) Revelation:

Silver and gold symbolises wealth, and God claims it as His own. The Body
of Christ, His church, consists of His children, making their inheritance what
belongs to the Father. Supernatural wealth transfer is the divine method for
this. It defies explanation, transcending the natural realm. “I will make the
Egyptians favourably disposed toward this people so that when you leave,
you will not go empty-handed. Every Israelite woman will ask her
Egyptian neighbour and any Egyptian woman living in her house for
articles of silver and gold and for clothing, which you will put on your
sons and daughters. And so you will plunder the Egyptians” (Exodus 3:21-
22 NLT).

This scripture reveals that God Himself will make even those who held His
people as slaves, the Egyptians, look upon them with favour. Similarly, this
year, the Lord will incline people, banks, and institutions to favour you and
bring you wealth. Just as Israel stripped Egypt of its wealth, supernatural
events will unfold, allowing you to partake in this wealth transfer. It will
happen in ways beyond comprehension, leaving people bewildered. Wealth
in the hands of the enemy is used to harm the Church, 32

necessitating supernatural wealth transfer for the prosperity of God’s


Kingdom.

Going Deeper:

Genesis 26:12-14 | Genesis 41:37-45 | Genesis 12:15-16

Prophetic Action:

Trust in God and have unwavering faith. Like Abram, who experienced
supernatural wealth transfer in Egypt.

Joseph, who went from prisoner to Prime Minister in one day, holding wealth
and power. Isaac, who sowed in famine and reaped a hundredfold in the
same year. This year, it will manifest in your life.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, all worldly wealth belongs to You. I have faith, Lord, that
this year, supernatural wealth will be mine. As You work financial miracles,
do not pass me by. I am ready, in Jesus’ Name. Amen!

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:


“We see in the Bible Joseph going from a slave to a Prime Minister, Moses
from being hunted as a baby to being one

“of God’s greatest prophets of all times. Hannah, from being a scorned
barren woman to the mother of Prophet Samuel.

NATION.” – “The Jesus Nation” by Prophet Shepherd Bushiri (PSB, 2021,
pg. 103) 33

15th January, Monday TUSHIYA WISDOM

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise
wisdom and instruction.” - Proverbs 1:7 (NKJV) Revelation:

Tushiya wisdom is a unique, hidden wisdom reserved for God’s children.


The devil cannot access it, and its source is the Holy Spirit. With Tushiya
wisdom, you can achieve what others cannot, as it is bestowed only upon
those who fear the Lord. Every believer requires this wisdom for success.
When you seek wisdom, ask your heavenly Father, and He will grant it
(James 1:5). Solomon sought this wisdom, and God granted it (1 Kings 3:9-
10), allowing him to rule with wisdom.

King Uzziah, at a young age, became prosperous because God was with him.
He accomplished feats beyond his natural ability: “In Jerusalem, Uzziah
designed devices to be used on the towers and corners of the city walls for
shooting arrows and large rocks. He became famous in distant places, for
he was greatly helped until he became powerful” (2 Chronicles 26:15
NCV). With Tushiya wisdom, King Uzziah achieved what a sixteen year old
cannot achieve. Age and qualifications are irrelevant, and you can innovate
like King Uzziah when you operate in this wisdom.

Going Deeper:

Zechariah 4:6 | 1 Kings 3:9-10 | 2 Chronicles 26:11-15

Prophetic Action: Seek the Lord to reveal Tushiya wisdom to you for
creative innovation. The more you ask for this wisdom, the more it will be
unveiled to you.

Prayer:

O God, enable me to access this realm not easily accessible to all. Empower
me to innovate with Tushiya wisdom, in Jesus’ Name, I pray. Amen.

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:

“In Job 32:7-8, the Bible clearly states that wisdom does not come from
age, rather, from the Spirit, which is the breath

“of the Almighty. It is this spirit that I refer to as the ‘Spirit of Wisdom’.
The Spirit of wisdom is an anointing which equips you with divine
understanding and reasoning.” – “Tushiya Anointing” by Prophet
Shepherd Bushiri (PSB, 2017, pg.15) 35

16th January, Tuesday RETURN TO YOUR PROPHET

Prophetic Message of the Day:

“Then she called to her husband, and said, ‘Please send me one of the
young men and one of the donkeys, that I may run to the man of God and
come back.’” – 2 Kings 4:22 (NKJV) Revelation:

Some time ago, my wife, Prophetess Mary Bushiri, delivered a potent


message about the revelation of your prophet and your blessing, drawing
inspiration from the narrative of the Shunamite woman and her son. This is
the very son she received through the Prophet Elisha’s prophecy, even though
she was barren. The passage above reveals that she indeed received this son,
and he grew, but one day the child fell ill suddenly and passed away. The
Bible does not record her grieving, becoming anxious or despondent. Instead,
it tells us that she took the lifeless body of her son to the upper room she had
built for Elisha and placed him on the bed of the Prophet Elisha. Not on her
own bed or the boy’s bed, but on the bed of the one who was a channel of
divine life.

Verse 24 further states: “...she saddled the beast of burden and said to her
servant, ‘Go swiftly; do not slacken your pace unless I instruct you.’” The
woman hurried back to the source of her blessing—the prophet! When
troubles arise, whom do you turn to? Most importantly, when the very
blessing you received in the Church is under attack and threatened by the
enemy, where and to whom do you 36

go? 2 Chronicles 20:20 (AMP) says, “Believe and trust in the Lord your
God and you will be established (secure).

Believe and trust in His prophets and succeed.” When challenges arise,
your revelation and attitude will determine the success of your battle.

Going Deeper:

Amos 3:7 | Hosea 12:10 | Acts 15:15

Prophetic Action:

Prophets are spiritual authorities, so when the enemy strikes, do not hesitate;
swiftly seek the guidance of God’s messenger, your prophet. Furthermore, the
Bible records that when asked why she was rushing to Prophet Elisha, the
woman simply replied, “It is well.” This teaches us to declare the prophetic
truth rather than confessing the physical circumstances.

Prayer:

I declare and proclaim that I will remain calm and acknowledge that You,
God of Major 1, are the Lord, for You protect the righteous’ path. Regardless
of the situation,

“I will both rest and sleep in serenity, for You alone, Lord, ensure my
safety” (Psalm 4:8).

17th January, Wednesday ENJOY THE DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH

Prophetic Message of the Day:

“Your threshing floors will be covered with grain; your wine vats will brim
over with new wine and fresh oil.” - Joel 2:24 (CEV) Revelation:

In the Old Testament, grain, wine, and olive oil symbolised abundance and
prosperity. All the harvest from the fields would first be gathered on the
threshing floors before being stored in barns and vats. Another way God
intends to bring prosperity to the Christian community this year is through the
sharing of abundance. God will distribute abundance among His people.
“God grants wisdom, knowledge, and joy to those who please Him.

But when a sinner amasses wealth, God takes it away and bestows it upon
those who please Him. This, too, is as fleeting as chasing the wind”
(Ecclesiastes 2:26 NLT).

The wealth of sinners will be shared among God’s people, and this year, you
will partake in this abundance. There will be an overflow, and the church
will begin to share with one another.

“He gave His people the lands of pagan nations, and they harvested crops
that others had planted” (Psalms 105:44 NLT). This verse illustrates how
God took the lands of pagan nations and allocated them to His people. The
Israelites were delivered from Egypt, and the Lord granted them the land of
Canaan, a land already inhabited by others. In Canaan, each tribe of Israel
received a portion of 38
the land and harvested crops that others had planted. This will happen in the
Church this year, and you will participate in the sharing of abundance from
the Lord.

Going Deeper:

Acts 4:32-35 | Acts 13:19 | John 6:10-13

Prophetic Action:

Ananias and Sapphira missed out on the blessing of sharing abundance due to
deceit and greed. To be part of the abundance sharing, you must be selfless
and refrain from a selfish mindset.

Prayer:

Loving Father, rid me of selfishness and grant me the grace to generously


share every blessing that comes my way this year, so that I may be among
those who enjoy the sharing of abundance in the church, in Jesus’ Name.
Amen.

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Mary Bushiri:

“In Proverbs 16:3, God promises to cause all our plans to succeed, if only
we commit our plans to Him. God does not

18th January, Thursday THE BLESSING SURPASSES THE


SCARCITY
Prophetic Word of the Day:

“Isaac planted crops in that land and the same year reaped a hundredfold,
because the Lord blessed him. The man became rich and continued to
prosper until he became very wealthy.”

- Genesis 26:12-13 (NKJV)

Revelation:

Times of scarcity are never easy; they are periods of severe distress and
hardship. When Isaac faced a scarcity of resources, his initial plan was to go
to Egypt, where he believed he could find the essentials of life.

However, God appeared to Isaac and instructed him, “Do not go down to
Egypt; live in the land I tell you about.” What compromises have you made
in times of crisis? How low have you stooped in search of solutions? God is
looking for believers who will seek His guidance. God told Isaac to remain
in that land, promising to be with him, bless him, and give him and his
descendants that land in return. Isaac obeyed the divine command and stayed
in Gerar.

It is likely that during this time, many young people were rushing to Egypt
where opportunities seemed abundant. Isaac was called to make a difference
in the land where he was situated. Regardless of how challenging your
circumstances or surroundings may be, you have the potential to make an
impact. The Word tells us that Isaac sowed crops in that land, and in the same
year, he reaped a hundredfold; the Lord blessed him. The blessing of the
Lord is not restricted by circumstances; it defies the laws 40

of nature. This marked a season of victory for Isaac as he began to prosper


and continued to prosper until he became exceedingly wealthy. The Lord
desires for you to progress.

19th January, Friday POWER TO GET WEALTH

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you
power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore
to your forefathers, as it is this day.”

- Deuteronomy 8:18 (NKJV)

Revelation:
In this year of wealth transfer, God will bestow upon you the power to get
wealth. You will receive the ability to create wealth, given to you via the
blessing of the Lord. This power, known as “dunamis,” enables you to effect
change and accomplish work. Upon receiving Jesus, you are able to get the
blessing, and inherit this transformative ability.

It manifests in the form of divine ideas, God-given visions for business,


understanding for your projects, excellence in your endeavours, or specific
skills.

This power to attain wealth is a divine gift from God. God does not give you
money directly; rather, He empowers you with the capacity to obtain wealth.
When you operate in this dimension, it is not your own abilities or efforts that
generate income, but the Spirit of God who instructs you in all things.

Like Solomon, you need wisdom to manage wealth and to comprehend your
greater purpose. This wealth is not just for personal gain but also for the
advancement of God’s Kingdom and His agenda.

“Through the outpouring of great mercy, the Lord bestowed upon Solomon

20th January, Saturday THE TIME HAS COME!

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“The word of the Lord came to me: ‘Son of man, know that the house of
Israel says, “The vision that he sees is for many days from now, and he
prophesies of distant times.” Therefore, say to them, “Thus says the Lord
God: None of my words will be delayed any longer. The message I speak
will be fulfilled. This is the declaration of the Lord God.” - Ezekiel 12:26-
28 (CSB) Revelation:

When a prophecy is released, it,is a cause for celebration, for God’s words
do not return void. However, God may require your patience as He prepares
you for the fulfilment of the prophecy. Prophecies concerning the future,
without a specified timeframe, will be fulfilled in God’s appointed time. In
the time of Ezekiel, people started losing heart over the word that the Prophet
spoke to them that He would destroy the land because the people were
rebellious.
However, Prophet Ezekiel speaks to the people again that the prophecies
will delay any longer. If you have received a prophecy about having children,
getting married, becoming prosperous, or achieving prominence, it is time to
rejoice because “the days have arrived, as well as the fulfilment of every
vision.” (Ezekiel 12:23) Your prophetic words and visions will no longer be
delayed. I speak in your life today, the word of prophecy will come to pass
speedily.

21st January, Sunday ABOVE AND BEYOND

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“The power that raised Christ from the dead and seated Him at His right
hand in the heavenly places, high above all principality and power and
might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but
also in that which is to come.”

- Ephesians 1:20-21 (NKJV)

Revelation:

As a Christian, understanding your position in the Lord Jesus empowers you


to exercise dominion in all areas of life. Paul prayed for the believers in
Ephesus, that they would grow in wisdom and knowledge of God’s power.
Christ, who was crucified and buried, now reigns in honour and authority in
heavenly places. He is the Head of the Church, and failure, sickness, sin,
poverty, torment, sadness, and depression all fall under the dominion of the
devil. These do not belong to you. Remember, as part of the body of Christ,
you are elevated far above these challenges.

Today, be reminded that you are seated with Christ in heavenly places, and
everything else is beneath your feet.

Christ surpasses every title and name, whether in this age or the age to come.
There is no name greater than the Name of Jesus. Recognise that you are
joined to Christ, a remarkable gift to the Church. No earthly title can surpass
His greatness. No one in this world, past, present, or future, can surpass the
greatness of our Lord Jesus Christ.

22nd January, Monday YOUR LABOUR IS NOT IN VAIN

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, stand firm, immovable, always


abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in
the Lord.” - 1 Corinthians 15:58 (NKJV) Revelation:

When it seems like your rewards are delayed, stand firm, unwavering, and
keep dedicating yourself to the Lord’s work. God has reserved blessings for
your efforts. Your labour in the service of the Lord will never go unnoticed.
Consider the story of Mordecai in the book of Esther (Esther 6:1-10). He
reported a plot against the king’s life but initially received no reward.
However, his act of faithfulness was recorded. When the time was right, the
king inquired about rewarding him.

God is always ahead of your enemies. When your enemy schemes, God has a
plan to protect you. Never give in to discouragement. Just as Mordecai’s
situation changed overnight, after the king discovered that Mordecai’s good
deeds were not rewarded, your season is about to shift.

You will be rewarded, and your enemies will be caught off guard by the
Lord’s plan to defend you. Do not lose hope; continue labouring for the Lord.
Your reward is assured!

23rd January, Tuesday GIVE ME CHILDREN OR I PERISH

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“When Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, she envied her sister.
She said to Jacob, ‘Give me children, or I shall die!’” -

Genesis 30:1 (NKJV)

Revelation:

Rachel had a loving husband, but her womb was closed, while her sister
Leah had children. Rachel’s envy led her to say, “Give me children, or I shall
die!” This desperation signifies a profound longing, a willingness to do
anything for what is desired. Many believers lack this level of passion and
desperation. God seeks those who will fervently pray and express their
weariness with their current circumstances.

Hannah, the mother of Samuel (1 Samuel 1:9-11), was similarly passionate


about having a child. She made a vow to dedicate her child to the Lord if
granted one. If you are passionate about your request, be prepared to
dedicate your life to serving God. When was the last time you passionately
pursued something from the Lord?

Hannah refused to be comforted in her barrenness. Rachel also refused to


accept her situation. Some of you may have given up on your jobs,
businesses, ministries, marriages, or studies. Regain your passion. The Lord
waits for you to approach Him with fervency, longing for fruitfulness in your
life.

24th January, Wednesday NO DISTRESS CALLS

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“May our sons thrive in their youth like well-nurtured plants. May our
daughters be graceful pillars, carved to beautify a palace.
May our farms overflow with various crops. May the flocks in our fields
multiply greatly, even in tens of thousands, and may our oxen be laden with
produce. May there be no breached walls, no forced exile, no cries of
distress in our squares.”

– Psalm 144:12-14 (NLT)

Revelation:

Most Christian parents desire their children to live securely, even long after
they pass away.

However, earthly insurance cannot compare to the assurance found in God.


His care and love for us exceed imagination. When reading Psalm 144, it is
astonishing to see how much God has prepared for those who obey Him.

The love He extends to future generations is overwhelming.

God desires abundance for you and your children. He wants every aspect of
your life, whether it is your business, job, or anything that brings revenue, to
overflow with prosperity.

In Him, you have security. Today, God says no to breached walls, forced
exile, or cries of distress in your streets. Despite any gloomy circumstances,
God rejects the opposition you face. This is the Lord’s promise to you. Your
opposition cannot thwart you because God has risen to your defence. This
battle belongs to the Lord! If anyone tries to unseat you or send you into
exile, the Lord has denied it. You will prevail because He has declared 52

it. Those distress calls will no longer be heard within your walls because the
Almighty God has decreed it.

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“He saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but
because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus
before the ages began.”

– 2 Timothy 1:9 (CSB)

Revelation:

In pursuit of fulfilling your holy calling, you will face trials and tribulations.
At this point, many Christians question their calling, wondering if they are
truly chosen by God and if they are on the right path. Some expect a life in
Christ to be free from hardship. However, Apostle Paul reminds Timothy that
a calling from God is holy. Regardless of the challenges you encounter in
your calling, remember that God planned everything before time began.
If you are going through a season of lack, spiritual warfare, or illness in your
calling, remember Romans 8:28, which states that all things work together
for good for those who love God and are called according to His purpose.

God’s purpose may require you to endure a challenging or painful season of


preparation. During such times, focus on God’s plan, not your circumstances.
Despite the hardships, your calling remains holy because it was ordained by
God, and through you, God will fulfil His purpose.

“The Lord said to Abram, ‘Go from your country, your people, and your
father’s household to the land I will show you. I will make you into a great
nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a
blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will
curse, and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.’”

- Genesis 12:1-4 (NIV)

Revelation:

Christians can partake in a blessing simply by connecting to a person with a


covenant blessing from God. Believers often spend much time in prayer and
fasting, but the easiest way to experience God’s blessing is by aligning with
someone who carries a covenant blessing from God. In Genesis, God made a
covenant with Abraham, promising to make him a great nation, bless him, and
make his name great. God’s blessing on Abraham extended to others who
called on the God of Abraham for help.

A covenant blessing is one that God ensures lasts for generations. When God
identifies Himself as the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, He affirms His
covenant.

By connecting with the grace and anointing of someone like Major Prophet
Shepherd Bushiri, you can access a covenant of uncommon grace,
supernatural speed, favour, mercy, deliverance, healing, and supernatural
wealth.

When you pray and call on the God of that person, expect the covenant
blessing to manifest in your life.

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:

“If the people of Israel wanted God to guide them and be with them in all
their endeavors, they had to obey God’s voice and

“be His people. God “keeps His covenant of love with all who love Him &
obey Him (Daniel 9:4).”- “The Prophetic Codes”

27th January, Saturday YOU WILL BE RESTORED TODAY

Prophetic Message Today:

“By the 27th day of the second month, the ground was completely dry.” -
Genesis 8:14 (ERV) Revelation:

Today’s prophetic insight draws from the story of Noah, when the Lord
destroyed the world and everything in it, except those who had made it into
the Noah’s ark. Everything on the face of the earth was destroyed. But after
the flood, on the 27th day of the second month, the ground was completely
dry, allowing those in the ark to finally come out. The number 27
prophetically represents restoration. Even though the Lord had destroyed
everything except for those in the ark, on the 27th day, the Lord gave Noah
and the people in the ark another chance to start multiplying again.

If you have faced challenges and losses in your life, today, the 27th day of the
first month of the year 2024, the Lord will restore you. Restoration means
bringing back or returning something or someone to their former condition or
position. Everything you lost or that lost value in your life is returning to you
and being restored to its former condition in Jesus’ Name. As Zechariah 9:12
says, “Return to the stronghold, You prisoners of hope. Even today I
declare that I will restore double to you.” Expect a double restoration if you
hold onto hope and faith in this word.

Prayer:

Lord, thank You for the promise of restoration. I believe in the word of Your
prophet. I declare restoration of everything I have financially, materially,
spiritually, and in my relationships, in Jesus’ Name. Amen!

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Shepherd Bushiri:


“With time everything usual y transforms itself into the fulness of what it
was meant to be. It all starts somewhere and

“ for you, perception is the primary step.”- “Rayon Anointing by Prophet


Shepherd Bushiri” (PSB, 2017, pg. 33) 59

28th January, Sunday THE VICTORY IS IN YOUR MOUTH

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“But what does it say? ‘The word is near you, in your mouth and in your
heart’ (that is, the word of faith which we preach)” -

Romans 10:8 (NKJV).

Revelation:

As Jesus hung on the cross, He understood the power of spoken words. His
final words, “It is finished” (John 19:30), marked the decisive and final
victory over defeat, sickness, and failure. Believers must grasp the finality of
those words and live victorious lives. Your victory is assured because Jesus
paid the price on the cross.

Therefore, no matter what you are going through, confess the word of God
and have faith in the word for the victory is in your mouth, your confession.

In a world filled with distractions, it is easy to lose focus and become


overwhelmed. Limiting mindsets and doubts can distance us from Christ,
making Him seem unreachable. Yet, Romans emphasise the importance of
putting faith in the Lord. Through faith, you can overcome challenges. The
Word carries victory, and when you confess it and act on it, victory follows.
Your words have the power to change your life. Speak positively, for words
can change destinies.

60

Prophetic Action: Examine the words you have been speaking lately.

Your words can change your destiny. Stand up, raise your right hand, and
declare three times, “I will always make positive confessions, regardless of
circumstances.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I cancel all negative confessions I have made. I align my


words with Your will for my life.

Transform every negative confession into a positive one, in the Name of


Jesus. Amen.

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Mary Bushiri:

“Speak and Win! In the same way that there are laws and principles that
govern the world and its systems; the same

“ goes for the spirit realm. In the spirit there is a principle that governs
words, and it is that words are objects in the spirit.”

– “You Will Win” by Prophetess Mary Bushiri (PMB, 2015, pg. 58)

29th January, Monday TOTAL CONTROL

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“So, the Lord saved Israel that day, and the battle shifted to Beth Aven.” -
1 Samuel 14:23 (NKJV) Revelation:

One day, the Israelites found themselves in the thick of the battle and all odds
were against them.
One man, Jonathan the king’s son, was moved by the state of things and
whilst others were hiding, he advanced into the camp of the enemy. Jonathan
was ready to fight for the armies of Israel even if it meant he would lose his
life.

Jonathan’s courage and faith sparked a great victory for Israel. Unusual
victories often require bold steps of faith, and God honours those who act on
His Word.

Think of David, a shepherd boy who faced the giant Goliath. While others
trembled, David knew that God was in total control. Despite Goliath’s
threats, God’s power surpassed the enemies. Our God, the Almighty, is
always in control, even when circumstances seem daunting. Just like
Jonathan and David, you must be ready to fight no matter how hard it looks
and what is at stake. Do not be discouraged; pick up the pieces and fight
again.

Prophetic Action: Do not yield to your enemy, whether it is sickness, fear,


or any challenge. Rise up and fight once more. Write down your concerns,
anoint the paper with oil, and declare deliverance.

Prayer:

Lord, help me not give up on my destiny and life assignment. Do not let me
grow weary in doing good. I trust that I will reap a harvest of blessings in
due time. In Jesus’

Name, I pray. Amen.

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Mary Bushiri:


“I want to take Mount Zion, in Psalm 125:1. In its literal sense, a
mountain cal ed Zion is found in Israel. Mountains

“do not shake when the winds blow, no matter what wind it is. When winds
blow fiercely, even the strongest of cities are known to have crumbled, but
the mountains always remain intact.” – “You Will Win” by Prophetess
Mary Bushiri (PMB, 2015, pg. 44)

30th January, Tuesday YOUR APPOINTED TIME HAS COME

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“You will arise and have mercy on Zion; for the time to favor her, Yes, the
set time has come.” - Psalm 102:13 [NKJV]

Revelation:

In life, there are instances when you may have believed that continuing
forward was insurmountable. You reached what appeared to be a dead-end,
and weariness enveloped you. Yet, recall the benevolence of the Lord. As a
Christian, you are the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit, a child of Zion.
Psalm 102 provides encouragement for all. The Lord will rise up and bestow
His mercy upon Zion!

This is because the designated time for His favour has now arrived. There is
a season for everything, and this moment happens to be your season of
favour.

It is inconsequential what challenges you have confronted or how daunting


they have become. Regardless of the losses you have endured, when the
Lord’s favour descends, your sorrow will turn to joy and your mourning to
rejoicing. Continue to invoke the Name of Jesus into your circumstances.
People may abandon you, but the Lord never will. He attends to the pleas of
the destitute. God is present as you contemplate these words, ready to release
you from the chains the enemy has imposed. It delights Him to witness your
prosperity in your sphere of influence.

Your business will experience renewed growth, and your 64

employment will flourish because the time appointed for your favour has
come.

faithfulness. Today, we pray that I may experience extraordinary favour in my
life, Lord. Hear my supplication as I seek a breakthrough and Your power in

31st January, Wednesday THE AMEN

Prophetic Word of the Day:

“For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory
of God through us.” - 2 Corinthians 1:20 (NKJV) Revelation:

The term ‘amen’ signifies “so be it.” Consequently, when you say “amen,”
you are declaring agreement and alignment with what is being proclaimed or
uttered. When two individuals concur, Jesus bears witness to the accord.
Even when you pray with a child, saying

“amen” at the end of the prayer signifies unity, and God will answer your
prayers. Scripture tells us that one can chase a thousand, and two can put ten
thousand to flight (Deuteronomy 32:30 NKJV).

“To the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write,

‘These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning
of the creation of God’” (Revelation 3:14 NKJV). This message was
conveyed to John for the leader of the Laodicean church, and it originated
from Jesus Christ. In this context, “the Amen” represents the faithful and true
witness, the origin of God’s creation. In our prophetic message of the day, the
Bible affirms that God’s promises are both “yes” and “so be it” (amen).

Consequently, confessing God’s promises in the Name of the Amen, the


faithful and true witness, can bring about transformation in your life.

66

Going Deeper:

Matthew 18:18-20 | 1 Thessalonians 5:24 | Romans 4:19-22

Prophetic Action:
Gather as a family, congregation, or with friends, and pray in unison in the
Name of the Amen. As you pray, come into agreement and emphatically
declare “amen.” Your testimonies will surely abound, for the faithful and true
witness will ensure the fulfilment of your prayers.

Prayer:

Faithful and True God, we thank You that Your promises are always “yes”
and “so be it” in Christ Jesus. Today, we stand in unity and declare that our
lives are transforming in Jesus’ Name, and so it shall be!

From the Prophetic Library of Dr Mary Bushiri:

“It is the will of God for every born again Christian to live a life
overflowing with peace. Before Jesus ascended to heaven,

“ He gave us His very own peace (John 14:27). Imagine that Jesus gave us
the peace He had as a man, the peace that al owed Him to endure to die on
the cross, THAT IS THE

PEACE I HAVE.” – “You Will Win” by Prophetess Mary Bushiri (PMB,


2015, pg. 41)

Salvation

YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN

Do you know that God loves you? You may think that this is not true because
of the wrong things that you might have done or because you look at your
current situation and say, “God cannot love me with the state that I am in.”
That is not true! He gives you everlasting and unconditional love, and He
created you to have a relationship with Him. God loves you so much that He
provided a way for you never to be separated from Him and to save you and
me from hell. He sacrificed His Son, Jesus Christ, while you and I were still
sinners so that we may have everlasting life. For you to have this eternal life,
you need to be born again.

Who Can Be Saved?

Anyone can be saved. The only thing you need to do is to believe.

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from
yourselves, it is the gift of God.” - Ephesians 2:8

It does not matter the decisions that you have made in the past. God will
always give you a second chance. If you repent today from living life on your
own and commit yourself to follow Jesus, He will remove all your past
mistakes, sins and wrongdoings, and He will guide you in the path of joy,
peace and everlasting life.

“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins
and purify us from all unrighteousness.” - 1 John 1:9

68

How Can You Get Saved?

God has given us the freedom to choose whether we want to open the door,
and invite Jesus in our hearts or not.

It is a decision that you make to say, “Lord, I want to change my life and
today, I want you to be the Lord of my life.”

You become saved when you get born again. In order to be born again, you
must receive Jesus. Jesus Christ is the provision that God gave for all man’s
sin. It is only through Jesus that we can know God personally and be forgiven
for our sins. Even the name Jesus in the Hebrew translation is Yeshua,
meaning saviour.

“But God showed His great love for us by sending His Christ to die for us
while we were still sinners.” - Romans 5:8
What Happens When You Are Saved?

• Deliverance – You receive newness of life. It is as though you have never


sinned, and you become released from any bondage or spiritual
imprisonment.

• Preservation – What belongs to you ceases from expiring because God is


now the keeper of all that belongs to you.

• Safety – You are kept safe and protected from all harm.

• Divine health – You qualify for divine healing in that God can cause you to
be healed supernaturally.

• Child of God – You become a citizen of heaven. You inherit all the benefits
of being a child of God.

• Holy Spirit – You receive the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of God who is sent to
guide, teach, intercede, and help you.

Salvation Is Yours!

Are you ready to have your life changed? Are you ready for your sins to be
forgiven? Are you ready to start 69

a new journey with God? If so, say the following words out loud:

Heavenly Father, today, I acknowledge that I am a sinner and need You to


help me live a new life. I believe that Jesus is the Son of God and He was
crucified to pay for my sins. I believe that He rose again and sits at the
right hand of the Father. By his blood, I am saved. My sins are washed
away and I am forgiven. Today I am born again. I am a new creation in
Jesus’ name. Amen.

Action Point:

If you have just prayed this prayer, congratulations!


You have made the most important decision of your life.

Now, I encourage you to get a Bible and find out more about Jesus and your
new life. God is going to be with you and guide you all the way. Go to a
church where they teach the Good News of Jesus Christ and share this gospel
with two or three other people.
