Word cocktail for the discouraged

1. In my day Job as a Pastor, I get to hear a lot of amazing testimonies of God s goodness in answer to prayers and faith in God s word, but today I chatted with someone who was in a hole of discouragement and I made up my mind to put together a WORDCOCKTAIL TO BEAT DISCOURAGEMENT. It is time to be lifted. You victory will know no bounds in Jesus name. There is lifting in God.

2. Ola Lekan Fasina I got this testimony below 3 minutes ago while I was writing to

encourage the discouraged, God cares..Good morning Sir, miraculously I got an offer to do firstbank interviews again in february,which usually doesn't happen until after 6months. I have passed all the interviews and done my medicals. I would be resuming anytime soon by Gods grace. All glories to God. I never knew anyone and it was the toughest and best 7panel 3 stage interview I've ever done in my life. I have perfected all my papers and all I'm waiting for now is my employment letter. I praise God.

Jeremiah 1:12 Amplified Bible (AMP) 12 Then said the Lord to me, You have seen well, for I am alert and active, watching over My word to perform it.

3. Faith can rejoice before it sees the answer, your celebration should start immediately you say AMEN. Once we finished a prayer evening in a home cell and a very respectable/honourable brother called all his friends and rejoiced that his(TROUBLED) immigration papers had come through(even though they were not physically). In a few days they came in through the post and he called them to RE-REJOICE... Ola Lekan Fasina 1 John 5:14 Amplified Bible 14 And this is the confidence (the assurance, the privilege of boldness) which we have in Him: [we are sure] that if we ask anything (make any request) according to His will (in agreement with His own plan), He listens to and hears us. 19 minutes ago Like
4. What are you worried about? You better rejoice,sleep and give thanks to God for all you have. Some stay awake at night worrying about not having a husband or a relationship while some are looking for a way to leave a relationship. Some want a husband while some want to return the husband they have married and get a refund. Well, get your priorities right, only God can give total peace and fullness of Joy. A man in your life cannot do what only God can do. Only God can make you happy. If you are not happy as a single person, you need God not a man. Get a man after you have gotten God. Philipians 4:4 Rejoice always , force yourself to rejoice.

5. Years ago as an overzealous and inexperienced trainer, I talked to people for hours until past midnight and sometimes 1 am and they start to fall asleep, I usually ask, are you sleepy (sleeping) and in their zeal, they always say no, well.......Human beings need to rest and sleep but see God... Jeremiah 1:12 (AMP) 12 Then said the Lord to me, You have seen well, for I am ALERT and ACTIVE , WATCHING over My word to PERFORMER it. When your God is a performer who never sleeps what are you worried about?
6. A lady threatened her Pastor(Thank God not me) saying "No good christian guy is coming to me o, I will now marry the first guy that asks me from today, I dont care, guru or Olumba any guy that comes" Why now ? Sister calm down and have a re-think, do all you can do "informed and wise action and then wait for the dream. Habakkuk 2:3 Good News Translation Put it in writing, because it is not yet time for it to come true. But the time is coming quickly, and what I show you will come true. It may seem slow in coming, but wait for it; it will certainly take place, and it will not be delayed. 7. During the world war two, an elderly woman was not seen for a few nights at the protective bomb shelter (the shelters protected people from German bombs that were falling nightly on London) her friends

concluded she was dead. When they saw her during the day they said, where have you been? why are you never awake and hiding in the bomb shelters at night ? She said I read in the bible in Psalm 121:4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. So I thought, if God is awake and watching it will be stupid of me not to sleep. You can stay awake to work, study or pray,but you dont need to stay awake and worry. God is awake, go and sleep. 8. God does not put people in trouble so that he can teach them a lesson, think about it, our parents sent us to school to learn, they did not send us to the "PRE FASHOLA OSHODI" to be trained by trouble, God will not get you into trouble, but He specializes in getting you out, never mix up the two. If you look around and the address of your location is TROUBLE, recognise it , and also look around because you will find God s presence waiting to get you out. I see you come out of the pit and the prison and get crowned in the palace IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS. Psalm 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

9. Choose to believe God and to trust Him only as your source, Deuteronomy 8:18 But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. During my first month in the UK I was told to speak to an IT GURU for professional career information, he told me how gloomy everything was and how hard it was to get a job, and that EVERYTHING WAS DIFFICULT, AND THEN I WENT OUT AND GOT A GREAT IT JOB 2 WEEKS LATER ..... Your testimonies will be so WHITE AND LOUD , no matter how BLACK AND GLOOMY THE EXPERTS SAY THE MARKET IS I Jesus NAME. 10. One of my Daughters in the lord gave out a Job last month(That means she had a

current job and was still being chased by recruiters and she told them someone else can do it and the person got the job.. A SOLID JOB) The same thing is happening to her this month. 11. People are looking for jobs, but the truth is EMPLOYERS ARE LOOKING FOR PEOPLE. I SPOKE with an employer today who was frustrated cause he cant get anyone with the skill he wants BELIEVE.
12.Cheer up and stir yourself up, the Land is green for you. Where ever you are is your green pasture today , enjoy God s blessings there and rejoice in His goodness, don t let me tell you about the man who had no shoes and then saw another with no legs before cheering up. Cheer up, miracles are happening around you daily,somebody just got saved, somebody just got a Job, somebody just got the man of their dreams, somebody just had a child, somebody just got their life changing contract. God is working daily , He s not on holiday, Mark 9:23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believes. It is not difficult ,Start today, open your mouth or click something, or type something to say I BELIEVE TOO. 13.In the United kingdom 2012, the water boards complained and complained that we were in drought as a nation and that families were banned from using Hoses to wet their gardens and we were to conserve

MARK 9:23. Choose what you beleive. Choose.

water. It was so bad that there were billboards to say conserve water we are in drought in March 2012, then came April 2012 and the heavens opened and it rained and rained and rained till there were floods. April 2012 is the wettest April on record in the history of the united kingdom. I see someone who feels things are dry and slow experience the heaviest rain of the Spirit of Favor of wealth of promotion IN JESUS NAME ZECHARIAH 10:1 (WORD COCKTAIL) . 14. A young child s operation was just cancelled. Immigration laws were just changed to favour a group of people. God is working all the time. If you have lost anything, rebuke the devil, but give thanks to God for what you have , it is because of God that you have not lost everything. 15. Exodus 22:7 If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief be found, let him pay double. Exodus 22:6-8 (in Context) Exodus 22 (Whole Chapter) 16.God will move you into a new reality where your current status will be so far from what you used to be it will be like it will be like the 21st century compared to the dark ages proverbs 4:18 0806 71 50395
