DAY 3: MONDAY 4TH JANUARY 2021
FOCUS: TOTAL VICTORY OVER SIN AND SELF
TEXT: ROM. 6:5-14
INSIPIRATIONAL MESSAGE FOR EFFECTIVE PRAYER
Any sin that is confessed and forsaken is forgiven. Any sin that is covered up becomes hidden sin. Every hidden sin is unconfessed and unconquered. Every unconfessed sin torments, truncates and terminates destines. Every unconquered sin is the spring of
disgrace, defeat and destruction.
Self is your greatest enemy. It loves and desires that which grieves
and offends God. It is a bent from God towards sin. Self is very
stubborn, unsubmissive and unyielding. It acts contrary towards
God, His plan, purpose and standard. Self does not accepts
correction except commendation. Self insists on his own way, self
is a sinful force, very subtle! It is an impossible force to deal with
in your own strength. It is the foundation of all sin and the
problems that have plagued societies and civilization since the fall
of man.
Read: PRAYERS FOR DAY 4, TUESDAY 5th JANUARY, 2021: IN THE DAYS OF HIS POWER: THE LORD WILL PURGE AND PURIFY HIS CHURCHVictory over sin and self is possible and profitable. In Christ Jesus there is full salvation. That is, forgiveness and pardon for sinful acts; coupled with the circumcision and cleansing of the sinful nature. “When you came to Christ, you were circumcised but not by a physical procedure. Christ performed a spiritual circumcision – the cutting away of your sinful nature” (Col. 2:11, NLT). So, you
must know who you are in Christ and what He has done for you.
LET US PRAY
1. Thank you that in the days of your power there will be total
freedom for all.
2. Father, give me total victory over sin and self. Don’t allow sin
or self to have dominion over me.
3. Read Job 13:23, Gracious Father, help me to know my
transgression and sin and give me the grace to rightly and
radically deal with them.
4. “I am watching them closely, and I see every sin. They cannot
hope to hide them from Me” (Jer. 16:17). Therefore, confess
every sin in your life to Jesus passionately and ask for His
forgiveness.
5. 2Kings 17:9, reads, “the people of Israel had also secretly done
many things that were not pleasing to the Lord their God”
(NLT). Father, forgive us in GOFAMINT of those things we have
done secretly against, that are working against our progress
and growth.
6. Father, help every minister and member to earnestly confess
and forsake all hidden sins in our lives because they are our
primary problems.
7. Psalm 69:5, ESV reads, “O God, you know my folly, the wrongs
I have done are not hidden from you”. Father, give every GOFAMINT member and minister the grace and sincerity to
confess wrong that have been done and grant us the divine
sense and courage to correct them.
8. Holy Spirit of God, help me to die to self and sin daily.
9. O Lord, kill the ‘Old man’ the sinful self, the producer of sin,
the man within, who seeks to control or direct the affairs of my
life.
10. O Lord, crucify my fleshly nature that I may glory in nothing
else but the cross of Jesus Christ.
11. O Lord, kill this sinful nature in me that is very clever, crafty
and slippery.
12. Holy Spirit of God, purify my heart with your purifying fire to
remove that sinful nature from me (Acts 15:8-9).
13. O Lord, circumcise my heart which is the fountain of self (Deut.
30:6).
14. Heavenly Father, “you are the porter and I am the clay, make
me and mould me after your will”.
15. Father, grant me total victory over sin and self.
