Edward Salazar Mauricio is a prominent pastor in Mexico, whose life is an amazing testimony of the transformation power of the Gospel.
Mauricio was still young when his parents got divorced. Afterwards, he took to selling on the streets and soon joined a street gang and began using illegal drugs.
One day, he got involved in a robbery that resulted in his murdering a person. Though he should have faced the death penalty for the crime, by God’s grace he was sentenced to life imprisonment. While in prison, he viciously attacked Christians who attempted to preach the Gospel to him. But during his frequent trips to solitary confinement, he found the Bible was the only available book there. So he often read it to pass the time. Slowly God’s Word began to penetrate his heart.Years later, in 1978, he attended a prison evangelistic meeting for the first time, where a minister preached on Saul of Tarsus persecuting Christians and about his subsequent conversion. After leaving the meeting Mauricio went to his prison cell, got on his knees, and asked God to forgive Him and surrendered his life to Christ. Soon he received a big miracle when four years later, he got a reprieve. He was paroled and soon released. Thereafter, he became a committed Christian, who eventually became a minister of the Gospel, preaching in many nations of the world today.

For a murderer to turn into a missionary is indeed proof of the transformation power of the Gospel.
The entrance of God’s Word gives light that can shatter the hold of darkness in anyone’s life.
On the road to Damascus, the life of Saul the murderer was completely and forever changed by his encounter with the light of Christ.
A genuine encounter with the light of God’s Word will always bring deliverance and positive transformations.
Jesus is the light of the world. John 1:4-5 says ‘ In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.’
No force of darkness can overcome or resist the light of God’s Word.
If perhaps you have been trying to reach out someone who seems unresponsive to the Gospel, keep speaking the Word to them. Soon the power in God’s Word will begin in them a transformation process.
If you are faced with any negative condition keep releasing the Word into that situation. Gradually a positive change will begin to take place. It is only a matter of time before there comes a tipping point and things will suddenly turn around for good. The Word of God is self-anointed with the power to transform anything and anyone..
Today, let us receive the grace to never become weary in engaging God’s Word for any desired transformation.
Surely, if we faint not, in due season we shall reap our miracles of deliverance, healings, breakthroughs, signs and wonders.

PRAYER: Lord, please enable me to meditate constantly on Your Word so that I can receive the grace to be steadfast in Faith and not grow weary until I receive my desired miracles and positive transformations in Jesus Name..

On Monday 9 December 2019, at about 2:15pm, there was a volcanic eruption at a popular tourist site called White Island, just off New Zealand’s coastline.
But before the disaster, geologists had given several warnings about it. Yet, despite the warnings tourists continued to visit the island until the volcanic eruption that killed several people, leaving others hospitalized with severe burns. Many of those killed and injured were Australian tourists who had been traveling aboard the Royal Caribbean cruise ship. About 47 tourists had been climbing deep inside the crater of the volcano when the eruption occurred, blasting huge plumes of smoke and debris 12,000 kilometres into the sky.
After the tragedy, many people questioned why tourists would still be visiting the island after the warning of scientists. In fact since 2011 the volcano had been showing increased activity, causing scientists to refuse to step foot on the island. Instead they had conducted all their observation operations with drones and aircraft. In a video filmed in 2013, one scientist said: ‘How important is it to collect the data? Is it worth losing my life?’ And yet despite the scientists’ warnings, tourists ignored them and continued to arrive daily in boatloads to the island until the tragedy struck.

One may quickly blame these tourists for ignoring clear warnings, but spiritually that is also the state of many people in the world today. For many years now there has been Biblical prophesies and warnings about the end of the world, but people keep ignoring these warnings and keep walking right into the mouth of the volcano.
But if ever there was a time to heed Biblical warnings and get prepared, it is now! The truth is that the world has entered the fearful end-time years that are the grand climax of human civilization. The Bible gave several warnings about these end-times, alerting us to watch and pray.(Luke 21:36).
Prayer sharpens our spiritual sensitivity and keeps us vigilant and watchful.
“Watch,” is the translation of one of two Greek words (gregoreuo and agrupneo), which have similar meanings—to “stay awake” and to “be sleepless.”
Indeed we must urgently wake up from every spiritual slumber and watch! As end-time signs rapidly unfold around us, we can no longer afford to be spiritually numb or keep ignoring Biblical warnings.
We must therefore be on guard, fully awake, aware, alert and intently focused. Watching also means properly using our minds. We must put our minds to proper use through careful study of scriptures. The more our minds focus on God’s Word the more alert and sensitive we will become to the times and seasons. As we heed divine warnings we will always escape the enemy’s plots and live in dominion and victory.

PRAYER: Father please enable me to heed Biblical warnings of these end-times through becoming spiritually alert. Please grant me the grace to constantly watch and pray and follow the leadings of Your Spirit in Jesus Name.

In 2022 the International Criminal Court (ICC) reported Afghanistan as one of the worst places in the world to be a Christian. Since the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021, religious and civil liberties have rapidly deteriorated under Taliban rule.

Christians face regular raids on their homes by the Taliban and frequently receive threats against their jobs and families, and lack access to educational opportunities. The Taliban are working to completely erase Christianity from the country.

Many Christians have gone underground to avoid being kidnapped by the Taliban “courts.” Under the Taliban’s strict version of Sharia law, punishment for being a Christian includes public executions. This situation has led many Afghan Christians to flee the country.

Interestingly there were some Christians who had early opportunities to flee but deliberately chose to stay back. They remained in Afghanistan due to their belief that God wants a Church in Afghanistan and has a plan for them to stay on and continue to preach the Gospel regardless of the persecutions.

Truly, the Christian life is that of deadly dedication no matter the cost. Christians who live in persecuted countries understand this best. They draw their examples from the early Church, many of whom willingly laid down their lives for the sake of the Gospel.

The courage and deadly dedication of these Christians should greatly challenge us and make us relentless in our commitment to obey God. While we may not face extreme physical persecutions, yet in our daily lives we are often confronted by spiritual persecutions from the enemy as he tempts and tries to get us to compromise our faith.

Despite the temptation or persecution, we must always remain faithful and continue to choose to please God in every situation. As we do, surely, God will give us double for all our troubles. God is a rewarder of those that diligently seek Him.

Therefore as we remain steadfast and unmovable in preaching the Gospel, we can be sure of His abundant blessings overflowing our lives. Indeed whatever the enemy means for evil, God will keep turning it all around to our advantage.

Despite all the attacks of the enemy, the Church of Christ will continue to march forward in victory and the gates of hell shall never prevail against it.

PRAYER: Lord please grant me the grace and strength to live a life that pleases you no matter how difficult it may seem. May I continue to uphold the truth of your Word and stand in faith no matter the oppositions I may face in Jesus Name.

Jack G. Coe was one of the great healing evangelists of the twentieth century. In his days, he had the world’s largest tent and preached on more than 100 radio stations. Many outstanding miracles accompanied his preaching .
However, Jack Coe’s ministry was a result of his willingness to obey God at all costs.
After his salvation, Jack Coe sought God with great passion and zeal. A few years later, he felt called to serve as a minister of the Gospel. He approached a local Church and asked for an opportunity to preach. But rather, the pastor asked him to take up doing menial jobs around the altar. Jack felt insulted and turned and walked away. The Lord prompted him to return and tell the pastor he would be willing to do whatever the pastor needed. The pastor then asked him to work as the janitor. Again he felt insulted and left. But after the Lord spoke to him, Jack once again returned to the church and agreed to become their new janitor. His faithfulness soon paid off. From a janitor he was promoted to Sunday school teacher, then song leader, youth minister, and finally associate pastor. When the senior pastor was transferred to another church, Jack was asked to fill in as the interim pastor. By the time the new pastor arrived, Jack was ready for his own ministry. The experiences he had gained helped him to eventually become one of the pioneers of the Voice of Healing Revival in the 1950’s and he is celebrated today as an outstanding Gospel minister in his generation.

When the zeal of the Lord consumes us, the desire to preach the Gospel will burn like fire in our bones. We will have an undying passion for Christ and commitment to obey Him at all costs.. There will be an inward excitement that pushes us forward to accomplish exploits for God’s Kingdom..(Psalm 69:9).
We live in a day and time where we simply cannot afford not to be on fire for Christ. Gross moral darkness covers the earth and sin abounds everywhere. As sons of God we are to shine like stars in the midst of today’s crooked and perverse generation. When people see the fire of Christ burning through us they will be attracted and want to have what we have.
To keep our fire burning brightly we must stay close to God’s Word. It is the entrance of His Word that gives light.
If we stop putting in the wood of the Word, our fire is bound to go out.
Proverbs 26:20 says ‘Where no wood is, there the fire goes out.’
To always maintain the fire of the Holy Ghost, we must have times set aside for prayer, fasting, worship and study of the Word. Such seasons of personal revival will ensure we are always spiritually fervent and fired up. And as we abide faithful in our area of calling it is only a matter of time before we break forth from obscurity to making global impacts in our generation.

PRAYER: Father, please help me to keep my fire burning brightly despite the spiritual coldness in the world.. Thank You for the grace to make soul-winning my passionate pursuit at all times in Jesus Name.

As a child, Reggie White was raised by his mother to walk in the fear of the Lord. As he grew up, he continued to follow the Lord and ended up with a successful career in sports. He was one of the most dominant defensive linemen in the history of American football. In 1993 White also became the best-paid defensive player in American football history.
Interestingly, during his sports career, Reggie White was never seriously injured. Rather he was a ferocious defensive player who struck terror into opposing teams with his strength, speed, and stamina.
He was called the “Minister of Defense” when he played, largely because he was an ordained Evangelical minister. Standing at 6 feet 5 inches tall, and weighing 300 pounds, White was a force to be reckoned with on the field. But off the field, he was known as a “gentle giant”. He was very outspoken about his faith and preached to everyone he could. He even preached to those he was beating on the field; he was known to warn opposing linemen, “Jesus is coming, I hope you’re ready,” before proceeding to pound through them on his way to the quarterback.
In his time, White spoke regularly at churches and often used post-game interviews as opportunities to proclaim Jesus. He has been credited with the rise of Christianity in the American National Football League. In his life and career, Reggie White constantly sought to represent Christ before men.

As Christians, our primary calling is to be ambassadors of Christ.
Before an ambassador is appointed for any nation, he goes through the highest scrutiny to ensure his character and conduct reflects the core values of his nation.
As ambassadors of Christ, our lives must constantly reflect our Heavenly citizenship.
We should always be conscious that we represent the King of Kings and Lord of lords. By words or by deed, our lives at all times should be proclaiming the Gospel.
Because the spirit of Christ is a missionary spirit, the desire to make the Gospel known to all men should be burning in us.
Not all of us can stand and preach in a church or go to a mission field, but all of us can play a vital role in God’s work by using what talent He has given us to represent His Kingdom.
As gross darkness covers the earth, do not hide your light. Rather be radical for Jesus; proclaim your faith boldly; let your light shine for men to see. However, to live a life of such conviction, we must be deeply impacted by the Holy Spirit.
No one can be an effective witness without the help of the Holy Spirit. His number one mission on earth is soul winning. In Acts 2:41, when the Holy Ghost came on the day of Pentecost, 3,000 people were saved. Again in Acts 4:4, the number of men saved were 5,000. Then in Acts 5:14, multitudes of men and women were added to the church.
Today, as we seek a deeper relationship with the Spirit, we will receive the grace to be effective ambassadors for Christ and greatly impact our world with the Gospel.

PRAYER: Lord, please help me to use every possible available means, including the gifts and talents You have given me to spread Your Word. As I go preaching Your Word, I thank You for overflowing my life with immeasurable blessings in Jesus Name.

Charles H. Spurgeon, was one of England’s best-known preachers in the 19th century. Known as the Prince of Preachers, he preached thousands of sermons over forty years of pastoral ministry.
Spurgeon”s success as a preacher was traceable to the relentless prayers of his mother.
Charles Spurgeon was born on June 19, 1834. From childhood, he often revolted against instructions and struggled against God. Despite his rebellion his mother continually prayed for his salvation.
As a teenager Charles continued in his sinful ways.
A breakthrough finally came when he was about 16 years old. One snowy Sunday morning Charles felt drawn to go to a small Primitive Methodist chapel. As he listened to the simple words of the preacher, he felt deeply convicted and soon surrendered his life to Christ.
Charles Spurgeon was so impacted by his salvation experience that he immediately began preaching the Gospel.
In 1854, just four years after his conversion, at only age 20, he became pastor of London’s famous New Park Street Church. Multitudes flocked to hear his sermons and over the course of his life, he would preach to millions of people. While he received accolades from presidents and princes, he always remained thankful for his mother who stood in the gap and prayed until he was saved.

Prayer indeed changes things. As believers, we have been called to stand as watchmen on the wall and pray until the prodigals are brought into the Kingdom of God.
We do not just get born again and go on a spiritual holiday, there’s work to be done and battles to be fought. The burden for souls should be our heart cry. Jesus our master was travelling from city to city throughout His earthly ministry to ensure people heard the Gospel. The Apostles did likewise passing through many pains and travails to bring the Gospel to many. In generations past great men and women have risked their lives to bring the Gospel to the lost.
Today, in our generation we must maintain the zeal and passion to see souls saved. The heartbeat of God remains the same; souls.
As we intercede for the lost, and refuse to grow weary, we will eventually reap miraculous answers to our prayers. (Galatians 6:9)
Not only shall we see souls saved, we will also receive divine rewards.
God’s blessings will be evident in our health, finances, business, career, families etc.
In this new month, as we obey the great commission let us expect miracles of breaking forth to unprecedented heights. In the place of ashes, we will soon see beauty.
Let us keep giving God all the glory because He is about to change our story.

PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for the grace to persist in the place of prayer for the salvation of men. Thank You Lord for speedy answers and exceeding my expectations in Jesus Name.

Andrew van der Bijl was born to Christian parents in Holland who endeavored to give him a godly upbringing.
But Andrew had no desire for the things of God as he grew older. Rather he loved adventure and as a young man he joined the resistance army in Holland in the 1940s. While serving as a soldier, he was involved in a massacre of Indonesian villagers. Afterwards, he felt so sorry for the bloodshed that he knew no peace and suffered severe emotional stress. During a battle, he was shot in the knee and this brought his military career to an abrupt end when he was only 20 years old.
He got home to find out his mother had died during the war. But she had left for him her Bible. As he began studying this Bible he found peace and would later surrender his life to Christ. Knowing the peace he found through reading the Bible he became committed to distribute the Bible to as many people as possible. After attending Bible school, he took up the dangerous missionary endeavor of smuggling Bibles into communist countries. This earned him the nickname “God’s Smuggler”.
God protected him throughout the period of these dangerous missions. Brother Andrew’s passion for soul winning led him to found a ministry called ‘Open Doors’. Today, it is an international missions organization that is located in many countries and assists persecuted Christians. Annually, 2 million Bibles are distributed by ‘Open Doors’ and countless souls have come to Christ because of this great ministry.

In Mark 16, Jesus commanded us to go into the world and preach the Gospel to every creature.
As we focus on obeying the great commission and pursue the promotion of God’s kingdom, we will enjoy divine promotions in our own lives. To break forth to greater heights we must become committed to the spread of the Gospel. Certainly, when we do that which pleases God, it compels Him to pour out His blessings upon us.
When Jacob brought to Isaac, his father, the venison that pleased him, Isaac blessed him from the depths of his heart saying;
‘Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine: Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee:..’ [Genesis 27:28].

Likewise, doing that which pleases God attracts His heartfelt blessings into our lives. When we are dedicated to the cause of God’s kingdom, our lives will overflow with testimonies of divine health, protection, deliverance, miracles, signs and wonders.
Especially in these perilous last days, the salvation of men should become a burning issue in our hearts. As we work to advance God’s kingdom, He will likewise work to advance our lives. We can’t be truly sold out to God and not stand out on earth.
As we keep winning souls, God promises to establish us as stars that will shine forever. (Daniel 12:3)

PRAYER; Lord, Please enable me to obey the great commission and preach the Gospel with boldness. Please grant me renewed appetite for Your Word, so that I will always burn with the fervency and zeal to spread the Gospel wherever I go in Jesus Name.

April is a month that has great spiritual significance for Christians. It is a month associated with resurrection and new life because most Bible scholars believe that Jesus was crucified on April 3rd, A.D. 33 and resurrected on April 5th, A.D. 33.
The death and resurrection of Christ ushered in a new beginning for His followers. The lives of His disciples were dramatically changed as they received the Holy Ghost and went forth to preach the Gospel with power.
Uneducated fishermen like Peter received divine boldness to defend the Gospel and astounded the Sanhedrin Council of Jerusalem which was the highest Jewish authority at that time.
As the Lord worked with His disciples, the little despised movement of Christianity spread out from a corner of Palestine to dominate the rest of the world. It overran the mighty Roman Empire which was steeped in traditional pagan religions and became the dominant faith of the empire.
Though wave after wave of persecution was unleashed to squash it, Christianity remained indefatigable as it went rapidly like wild fire across the earth.
Indeed the spread of the Christian church in its earliest centuries is one of the most amazing phenomena in all of human history.

Just as the month of April marked new beginnings for Christianity, as we step into this new month today, let us trust God for a change and renewal in our own lives.
On this first day of April, let us tap into the grace of the resurrection season. It doesn’t matter where you may be today, it is time to resurrect from every low state and rise to greater heights of destiny.
It is indeed time to experience new levels in God and conquer new territories for Christ..
At this time, seeking God first has to be our greatest priority because the place of God in our heart will determine our placing upon the earth.
May today indeed mark a new beginning for us in our passion and zeal for the Gospel. Through the power of the Holy Ghost, let fresh fire be ignited in our hearts to carry the Gospel into all the world, starting from our Judea, which is our immediate environment.
The Blessing is in the going. Therefore, let us begin to run with Heaven’s agenda for the hour, which is soul winning. God has a grand plan for us this year, but for it to be accomplished, we have to seek His kingdom first. Certainly, we cannot seek God first and end up last.
By the Blood of Jesus, we receive fresh fire and renewed passion to continually run with God’s agenda to preach the Gospel to the world. It is certainly a new day for us. Therefore let us keep praising God for the grace that is being released upon us to break forth to new heights of glory in this new month.

PRAYER: Father, I thank You for bringing me into this season of renewal and new beginnings. Please grant me the grace to seek You diligently so as to experience a dramatic change of story and greater glory in this new month in Jesus’ Name.

It is archaeologically impossible to know the exact burial site of Jesus. However the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem has become a globally acceptable site, for the crucifixion, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This Church has long been a major pilgrimage center for Christians worldwide.
The Church of the Holy Sepulchre is built over the tomb where Jesus’ body is believed to have been laid. This tomb has been sealed in marble since the 1500s in order to prevent visitors from stealing pieces of the original rock as souvenirs.
Because the Church of the Holy Sepulchre has been destroyed and rebuilt several times over the past 1,700 years, this led to speculations about the condition of the tomb.
In October 2016, for the first time in 500 years the tomb was unsealed. A team of scientists were allowed to conduct conservation work in the tomb and they were given just 60 hours to carry out their research before the tomb would be sealed again for many more centuries.
The preliminary findings of these scientists confirmed that portions of the tomb were still in perfect shape since the last time it was sealed. Most importantly they also confirmed that the tomb is still empty. The fact that the tomb remains empty because Christ has risen is indeed the most exciting news of all.

Every Easter Sunday, Christians celebrate the fact that Jesus is no longer in the tomb. His tomb is empty and He is risen indeed! He is not dead – He is alive and living! Death has been defeated. The debt of sin has been paid for us.
Through Christ we have hope! Through His shed Blood our sins have been forgiven and now we have a purpose for living. That is exciting news! The resurrection of Jesus Christ represents for us a change of position.

Matthew 27:50 – 52 says ‘ And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, and came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many’.

Just as many bodies of the saints arose when Jesus resurrected, today, we have also been resurrected from every grave situation.
As we celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, we also declare that we have been raised from every pit of life and made to sit in Heavenly places with Christ.
Where there was death there is now life. Where there was emptiness there is now fullness. Where there was fear there is now faith. Where there was confusion there is now purpose. This is the reason for our celebration today. Yes, Christ is risen, and so have we!!

PRAYER: Lord, I thank You on this Easter day for sending Jesus to die for my sins. Please help me to fully appropriate the benefits that Jesus won for me on the cross. By His resurrection power may everything dead around me come alive today in Jesus Name.

Revelation 1:18 ‘I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death’.

Dana Adams is the author of the book “Into The Storm.’ She served as a missionary alongside her husband Pritchard Adams in Haiti for over 28 years.
In her book, she tells the story of her husband’s miraculous survival from a ruptured brain aneurysm. One morning while they were in Canada an artery at the base of Pritchard’s skull had burst. As he was rushed to the hospital, he slipped into a coma. Doctors didn’t think Pritchard would live, because nearly half of all people who suffer brain aneurysm usually die.
To worsen matters, two days later, he had a cardiac arrest and a second artery exploded in his head. This time doctors were certain he would surely die.
While it seemed his fate was sealed and he would never wake up from the coma, Dana began to invoke the power in the Blood of Jesus. As she waged spiritual warfare against the forces of death, miraculously, Pritchard woke up from coma after 26 days.
After a few more days, he fully recovered, and left the hospital in good condition.
Today, Pritchard lives an active life and his life remains a powerful testimony of the resurrection power of Christ..

Through His death and resurrection, Jesus has given us total victory and liberty in life. Negative situations no longer have the final say over our lives. No matter the medical verdict or financial report that may confront us, we can always arise triumphant through the power in the Blood of Christ.

After Jesus was crucified, He went down to hell to defeat the devil and win complete victory for humanity. Jesus totally devastated the kingdom of darkness and left hell in shambles, triumphing over the devil, and disarming all principalities and powers.
Colossians 2:15 says, “Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it”.
Jesus took the key of death from the devil and defeated death’s terror to hold us down. Through His victory, we now have resurrection power. No matter how terrible any condition, through Christ we can arise from it. Because He lives, we live also.
In Revelation 1:18 Jesus says: I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death’.
After Jesus had sealed the devil’s defeat, He arose triumphant from the grave. He then delegated authority to the Church and gave us the power to tread upon serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy.
As remember Christ’s death and resurrection in this season, let us rejoice because we have been given eternal victory through His Blood. We are truly grateful for what Christ has done for us. Therefore today, let us from the depths of our hearts, bless and praise God for His ultimate love and ultimate power shown to us at Calvary!

PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for the price you paid at Calvary to set me free from every yoke and bondage. Please help me to live a life that continually brings glory to You at all times in Jesus Name.
