Genesis 27: 40 LIFE IS A BATTLE, BE A STAR.




“And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck”.



There was a king who has a very beautiful daughter and he decided that her marriage would be special. He said he would only give his daughter to the man, who would swim across the river which was filled with hundreds of crocodiles.



All the young men that were eligible came out when they heard that the king wanted suitors for his daughter but when they heard about the swimming, they started to leave one after the other.







Suddenly, there was a splash in the river; a man was swimming. He swam vigorously as he was about to get out of the river, a crocodile grabbed his shoe but he was able to escape.







Everyone applauded him as he came out and they congratulated him for becoming the king’s son in- law. He said they should not congratulate him, that he was just a spectator and did not know who pushed him into the river. H was looking for the person in order to fight him.







The reality is that, he won a race that he did not apply for. He was forced to run a race that he was not interested in .In fact; the whole idea could have sounded ridiculous to him.







The king idea was to push the young man into the dangerous waters, so that he can repossess all the wealth that his great grand –fathers have lost, all the good things that members of his family have never had the opportunity of touching.


All the good things of which you have been dreaming will come to you in Jesus name.



For you to king over your situation and speak words that will make you repossess you possession, you have to first be king over yourself, your body and your flesh.







Life is a battle and we need to fight! We are engaged in this battle, not because we desire it, but because life is a battle. People enter into the battle-field at different stages in their lives. Some get in before they are born, some get in at birth and some get in at infancy. Some in their adolescences, some as adults, some in their old age and so on



Te battle that each individual has to fight differ one from the other; the resistance and strength of each individual differ on from the other.




People will serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: you’ll be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee in Jesus name.
