VICTORY DAILY Living by The Inspiration of The Holy Spirit Republished in Nov.2023
INSPIRATION
OF
THE HOLY SPIRIT
PREFACE
Today, you can hardly separate believer from non believers. People do
come to church, but they are almost the same with those who don’t
come. This is because; they love to live like the people of the world
(James 4:4). The reason being that some people feel it’s better to be
natural so that they can be neutral. They only want to use God when it
is working and when it seems not working; they turn to the world.
That is why God laid it in my heart to share in this 30days study on how
to live a life of inspiration by the Holy Spirit. Take time to devotionally
study the word of God with this pamphlet and the Lord will turn you to
a miracle, a solution and a testimony to your generation. Peace.
In our speaking and acting, we must learn to do this under the influence
of the Holy Spirit. In other words, we are connected to Him every
moment. We should allow Him to move us into action. Whenever He
comes in, we are under the influence of the Holy Spirit. That way, we
will be unique either in the house or in the office. Peace.
PRAYER: Lord, let the Holy Spirit live through me always
“EVERY ACTION IS INFLUENCED BY A SPIRIT”
Some men from the tribe of king Saul, the enemy of David was moved
by the Lord to help David. It is a dangerous thing to accept people from
the camp of your enemy. But the Holy Spirit inspired one of them and
he started prophesying. As children of God, filled with the Holy Spirit,
we should always allow the Holy Spirit to inspire us and not the flesh in
any situation.
It was recorded that Job was the richest in the East (Job 1:3). It was in
this scripture that Job was sharing about the secret of his blessing. It
was by the inspiration of the Spirit of God (Isaiah 60:1).
The word of God says it is God that is working through us both to will
and to do His good pleasure. This means, wherever a man is inspired by
God, the Holy Spirit want to carry out His will through him. Men often
allowed the spirit of the world to use them. Many allow the spirit of
money to use them. This was what destroys Judas (Matthew 27:5).
BE DELIBERATE Day 6
Scripture Reading Matthew 16:13-23
Devotional:
“Jesus answered and said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah,
for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is
in heaven” (V. 17) NKJV
The Holy Spirit inspired Peter to speak the truth about the person of
Jesus in Matthew 16:16. Jesus commended him of being inspired by the
Holy Spirit. Shockingly, in the same chapter, Peter allowed himself to be
inspired by the devil and Jesus rebuked him (Matthew 16:23). This is
because Peter was not conscious that the devil could speak through
him. That is why the word of God told us to test every spirit (1 John
4:1).
You will see people acting wrongly and they will give the excuses that it
was the devil. That is why you and I need to be deliberate in allowing
only the spirit of God to inspire our actions. This is by been deliberate in
testing every spirit before acting. Be sure the ideas or instructions in
your spirit is according to the word of God. Measure every inspiration
by the word of God. Make it a deliberate thing that in any place or
situation is sure you are always inspired by the Holy Spirit. Either you
are playing, joking with friends at home or in the office. Always connect
with the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and you shall be signs and
wonders. Peace.
For a man to regularly enjoy the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, he must
be baptized in the Holy Spirit. To be baptized in the Holy Spirit is to be
filled with the Holy Spirit. This is because; it takes a cup that is filled up
to overflow. To be inspired by the Holy Spirit is to be used by God to
flow to others. The word of God says out of our lives shall flow rivers of
living water (John 7:36-37).
Baptism of the Holy Spirit is what a believer must experience regularly.
In Acts 2, the disciples were filled with the Holy Spirit. In Acts 4, they
were filled again. This is because, as we exercise ourselves in this world,
we need to be refilled again and again. Not because the Holy Spirit can
decrease, but it is our level of connection that needs to keep increasing.
To receive the Holy Spirit is by asking in faith that Jesus will baptize you
(Luke 11:13). To be baptized is to be fully immersed into the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is everywhere. So, as soon as you ask, He comes into
you. He then gives you the utterance to speak the language of heaven
(Act 2:4, 1 Corinthians 14:2). Just continue to speak till you are totally
immersed. Then, He will always inspire you. Peace.
MEDITATION Day 8
Scripture Reading Joshua 1:1-8
Devotional: V. 8
“This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall
meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to
all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous,
and then you will have good success” (V. 8) NKJV
Friend, anytime you are meditating in the word of God, you are drinking
of the spirit of the word and building up for an inspired life. You shall be
as refreshed as a watered garden (Psalms 1:1-3). To meditate in the
word is to exercise an inquisitive mind. It is to be willing to know more
of God. The Holy Spirit will reveal Himself to you through the word. The
light of God will shine on you for your inspiration. And you will rise to
shine. Peace.
GIVING Day 9
Scripture Reading Isaiah 58:1-14
Devotional:
“Then your light shall break forth like the morning, Your healing shall
spring forth speedily, And your righteousness shall go before you; The
glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard” (V. 8) NKJV
Very many believers are yet to tap into the blessing of giving. This is
due to their ignorant of it. The devil haven understood the power in
giving will rather do all in his power to discourage man from giving.
Please take note that God is love (1 John 4:7-8). Any time you give, you
are practicing the act of love. Whenever you give, you find a strange joy
and liberty in your spirit man. This is because God has used you to love.
Under this atmosphere you will be inspired to move forward into your
harvest (Isaiah 12:3; Hebrews 11:6). Giving releases your tension just
like when you urinate after been pressed. Your spirit is then open up for
inspiration.
The word of God says when you have given forgiveness, let go the
oppressed or giving to the needy. Then your light shall break forth like
the morning. The glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard. This is
inspiration for greater glory. When you give, your doors of progress
open, you become capable by inspiration to build greatness. You shall
be as refreshed as a watered garden (Isaiah 58:11). You shall ride in
high places. Peace.
WORSHIP Day 10
Scripture Reading John 4:16-26
Devotional:
“God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and
truth" (V. 24) NKJV
The word of God told us that worship is a spiritual affair. This is God and
man getting into fellowship together. During such times, the light of
God radiates upon man. Do this daily from now and your life will be
turned around for His glory. This makes man to have heavenly ideas.
FELLOWSHIP Day 11
Scripture Reading Psalms 84:1-12
Devotional:
“They go from strength to strength; Each one appears before God in
Zion“(V. 7) NKJV
That is why the word of God says people who fellowship in Zion will go
from strength to strength. The truth is that our company with the Holy
Spirit should not depart from us. Though the service is over and we
have left the premises of the church, we should learn to carry the
mentality of His presence anywhere we are (Psalms 23:6).
Your fellowship among spirit filled believers will always set you on fire.
You will always be inspired to move forward in life. You will
demonstrate strange measure of wisdom. You will always gain strength
to run the race of life. You will always be inspired with passion to
pursue and overtake in Jesus name. Peace.
Friend, you must therefore get used to asking Him to lead and help you
as you speak, He will give you the right word and wisdom for solution.
When Pharaoh was sharing his dreams with Joseph, I believe Joseph
will be praying to God inside him, “Lord teach me what to say”, so he
spoke wisdom that elevated him (Genesis 40:8). You are made for
wisdom and solution. That shall be your life style from today in Jesus
name. Peace.
If anyone is not humble, such cannot regularly connect with the Holy
Spirit for inspiration. The word of God says pride goes before a fall
(Proverbs 16:18). The reason a proud man will fall is because, there are
many things our physical eyes cannot see or that man do not know. It
takes humility to be guided out of any trap.
You are too precious to fall. So, you cannot degrade yourself to the
level of pride. A proud man is belittling himself by subtracting the
presence of God from his activities. So, he will be working or talking
with mere head and human limitations, errors, mistakes etc, and this
will soon bring shame to him.
Friend, you cannot descend that low. You are not made to live without
God. (John 15:5). Wisdom demand that you allow Him to be part of all
you are doing and by all, I mean all (Psalms 23:6; Proverbs 3:5-6). This is
wisdom (Matthew 7:24). No matter your degree, fourth or seventh, you
are limited in understanding. You are prone to error. Don’t be too
forward. Humble yourself to ask Him to help you in all things. Then, you
are out for wisdom. Peace.
Friend, develop this as a habit. Start from today in all situations. You
will be shocked at the level of inspiration and wisdom that will proceed
out of your mouth. You will become a student of what is proceeding
out of your mouth. This is the way to answer in every situation
(Colossians 4:6; Daniel 2:1-20). In any conversation of any sought, let us
learn the act of silence inner prayers to the Holy Spirit in us. And you
shall be a sign and a wonder to your world. Peace.
As children of the living God, we are the one who should bring solution
to the problems of this world like Solomon and David in their time
(Romans 8:19). That is why we have to learn the act of living by divine
inspiration in all our assignment.
God could give you what to say when you are listening to others. That is
the power of listening. But when you don’t know what to say, make the
silence inner prayers in your heart, then open your mouth and speak
(Luke 21: 14-15). In this, you must learn to trust the Lord to always give
you the right word for every situation. You must learn to do this in
confidence not doubting or been afraid. You will soon be promoted
(Genesis 41:37-45). Peace.
COURAGE Day 16
Scripture Reading Deuteronomy 31:1-8
Devotional:
“Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for
the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave
you nor forsake you" (V. 6) NKJV
It is important that you come to know that the world is waiting for the
manifestation of the greatness in you (Romans 8:19). You have been
too long on the floor. The time has come for you to rise. You have been
looking down on yourself for long. It is time for people to see that great
God is inside you.
One of the ways to manifest by the inspiration of God is by been
courageous in all situations. Courage is allowing the mighty God to
work through you. You could see something or hear something bigger
than you and that could make you afraid. But you will always gain
courage when you remember and connect with the great ‘I am’ in the
inside of you.
A natural man can use boldface, but courage is acting by the influence
of the mighty God. That is God inspiring your words and your actions.
You cannot live in fear and conquer. You cannot live in fear and God
working through you. That is why the just has to live by faith (Romans
1:17). You must cultivate the habit of been courageous by the memory
of the great God in you (Numbers 14:8-9, 1 John 4:4). Learn to keep
acting by faith notwithstanding the situations (1 Samuel 17:48). You will
not be disappointed in Jesus name
Peace.
Inspiration comes from Holy Spirit in us and this intoxicates our mind to
push us to action (Ephesians 5:18). That is why we must learn to take
action whenever we are inspired. Inspiration without action is a waste
of virtue of God. This is what most people have been doing that makes
their life stagnant.
The word of God reveals to us that, as the Goliath was drawing closer,
David also was moving closer to him by the inspiration of the Spirit of
God in him. The truth is that, people look down on you because of your
size or level. But when you learn how to act with courage, you will
intimidate them. Courage is acting by faith through the inspiration of
the Holy Spirit.
Remember, the three Hebrews who trusted in God and was thrown
into the lake of fire (Daniel 3:10-30). Trusting is been ready for
anything. “Even if” (Daniel 3:17-18). Trusting is standing strong in
confronting whatever is challenging us by our faith in God. The truth is
that, your God is bigger than any form of intimidation.
Every time you are seeking to connect with the Holy Spirit for an
inspiration, there will always be a direction. When this happens, don’t
jump out yet, but test the spirit to be sure it is from God. If the Holy
Spirit could speak through Peter and almost immediately another spirit
used him, then all of us have to be careful (Matthew 16:15-23).
The word of God told us that the Holy Spirit will bear witness with our
Spirit (Romans 8:16). So, it is not out of place that you are checking out
by testing the spirit directing you.
To test the spirit, ask for a scriptural backing for the instruction. This is
because God will not speak contrary to His word. To test the spirit,
check whether you have peace or trouble in your spirit. God will always
speak peaceably to you. In other words, His word will give you peace in
your spirit man (Psalms 85:8). This is because the word released will
agree with the Spirit of God in you. To test the spirit, you can let God
sometimes confirm through others (2 Corinthians 13:1). This is
important so that we can always be sure if it is an inspiration from God.
Then, our testimonies will be sure. Peace.
As a child of God, if people don’t call you pastor, then, check your life.
This is because, the word of God says by their fruit you shall know them
(Matthew 7:20-21). He that always live by the inspiration of God will
find such measure of grace that people everywhere shall be calling him
Pastor.
The word of God said, they shall name us the priest of the Lord and the
servants of God. This is because the fruit of our lives shall be of the Holy
Spirit. Out of your mouth proceed rivers of living waters (John 7:36-37).
It is because God will use you to heal the sick and deliver the
oppressed. He will use you to set the captive free, friend; this will
qualify you for so many good things in God (Isaiah 54:17). This will
make you a vessel unto honour. This will make you a blessing to many.
You shall be a sign and a wonder. Just keep living by the inspiration of
God and God will keep decorating you with honour. Peace.
When you are living by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, your prayer life
will be with the power of God. This is because your utterances will
proceed from the Holy Spirit. And the angels of God are ordained to
carry out the word of God (Psalms 103:20). Your word will become an
authority that will be executed. This will give you the experience of
answered prayers.
Friend, if you want to see the grace for answered prayers, then; you
must make your prayers by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. This you
can do by asking in your spirit man for what to pray about (Romans
8:26-27). The Holy Spirit will supply you scriptures that will release the
answer to your prayers. Peace.
One of the evidences of God being the source of your inspiration is that
wisdom will always proceed out of your mouth (Proverbs 1:6-7). Since
the Holy Spirit is the spirit of wisdom, He will naturally flow out of the
mouth of a man who lives by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
The word of God said as I meditate on the word of God, I become wiser
than my enemies. To live a life that is always speaking wisdom, then,
there is need to learn how to ask Him for wisdom. Every time you are to
talk and you desire to speak wisdom, then quickly connect with Him.
Ask Him to order your words. Don’t be a talkative, but have to listen
and receive from Him. Then, your mouth will speak the wisdom of God.
Always desire to speak His wisdom. Make it your regular practice to
wait on Him for the right word at the right time (John 12:49). Open your
mouth to speak by faith and you will be an oracle of wisdom (Luke
21:15). Peace
One of the visible evidences of the one that is inspired and speaking by
the Holy Spirit is edification. Different people learn at different pace.
We understand in different ways. But a man speaking by the inspiration
of the Holy Spirit is able to help everyone.
Friend, wherever you may be, in the house, office, church or in the
community, learn to acknowledge God for the right word. What will
proceed out of your mouth will always help someone to grow. This is
how men will notice the virtue in you and draw closer to you. They will
have great honour and value for you. You will be a blessing forever.
Peace.
COMFORT Day 24
Scripture Reading Isaiah 40:1-5
Devotional:
"Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her, That her warfare is
ended, That her iniquity is pardoned; For she has received from the
Lord's hand Double for all her sins." (V. 2) NKJV
The Holy Spirit wants to use you to comfort others but you cannot do
that on your own alone (John 15:5). Learn to ask Him for what to say to
people always. You will suddenly become someone people like to hang
around. You will also find comfort as you comfort others. You will
become an instrument of encouragement to many. Discouragement is
one of the strongest weapons to destroy man. Don’t just speak anyhow
again. Don’t just speak like people use to speak. There are too many
people around you in need of encouragement and God wants to use
you. Let all your word be a blessing to someone. God will make you a
comfort in Jesus name. Peace.
SOLUTION Day 25
Scripture Reading Genesis 41:34-41
Devotional:
“So the advice was good in the eyes of Pharaoh and in the eyes of all
his servants.” (V. 37) NKJV
God brought you to this world to solve problems. That is what you are
wired to do. It is a need that makes the world need you. God only
create people that are needed in the world to come to the world. You
are a gift to your generation. Wherever the world needs something,
God will just need to package the idea, the skill and the passion to get it
done into someone and he will put him or her in a womb to be born to
the world (Jeremiah 1:5; Ephesians 4:11).
Joseph was packaged to help Egypt out of a hard time and to welcome
Israel to Egypt. Moses was packaged to bring Israel out of Egypt to their
Canaan. Joshua was packaged to distribute inheritance to the children
of Israel in Canaan. The Apostles of Jesus were packaged to connect the
world to Jesus. Apostle Paul was packaged to explain the messages of
Jesus in a way that applied to our situations.
RESOURCEFUL Day 26
Scripture Reading John 7:37-44
Devotional:
“He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will
flow rivers of living water." (V. 38) NKJV
A man who lives by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit will always be
resourceful. To be resourceful is to be rich internally, capable of solving
problems. A resourceful man is capable of connecting to a source of
wisdom for solution. God made man to connect with Him to become
resourceful in the world. That is why we must live a life of inspiration.
People become resourceful when they have widely read materials that
could enrich them. People become resourceful when they are widely
exposed to many factors in a given profession. People become
resourceful when they give themselves to researching in a given field.
The resourcefulness of the Holy Spirit is quite more than all of these. It
is tapping into the depth of the wisdom of God (Romans 11:33).
The word of God says the Holy Spirit distribute these gifts to each one.
So, when the Holy Spirit come inside you, he comes with either of these
gifts (Acts 2:38). The virtue of these gifts manifest in each of us
differently (1 Corinthians 12:4-7). Some manifest the word of wisdom.
Others manifest the word of knowledge. Others manifest the gifts of
faith. Some people manifest the gifts of healing, working of miracles,
prophesying, discerning of the spirit, different kind of tongues, and
interpretation of tongues.
Friend, since the Holy Spirit is the distributor of these gifts, then, you
need consistent relationship with the Holy Spirit to manifest your own.
Peace.
As you live daily by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, you will soon be
known to be a gospel ambassador. This is because your words, actions
and all about your life will be preaching the gospel. The truth is that, if
you are common or ordinary where you are then, you may not be a
child of God. You will know a child of God by the peculiarity of the fruits
of God (Matthew 7:20-21). You cannot hide.
To be a sign and a wonder demands that we learn and key into a daily
life of inspiration. This is a life intoxicated by the Holy Spirit (Ephesians
5:18). You must be speaking by the Holy Spirit. As long as a man wants
to live as a mere Christian, he will be a victim of the wickedness of this
world.
A sign and a wonder is the one that the forces of this world cannot
contradict nor gain say (Luke 21:15). Friend, the way of the kingdom of
God is different from that of the people in the world. You can only
choose one (James 4:4). You are either going to choose men of the
kingdom of God as your friend or follow your ungodly friends. As a
child of God, you have to live a life of signs and wonders. Your life must
be a testimony to your world. Then you are truly showing forth the
glory of God. Peace.
AUTHORITY Day 30
Scripture Reading Luke 10:17-24
Devotional:
“Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and
scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by
any means hurt you.” (V. 19) NKJV
It is important that you know that as a child of God, you have been
given authority in Christ Jesus. This means that the power of God has
been delegated to you (Matthew 18:18-20). If you are not experiencing
it, God is not at fault. It is a function of your ignorance (Hosea 4:6). The
authority of God will always work in the life of a man when he lives
daily by the inspiration of God.
Friend, the time has come for you to arise in the grace of God. This is by
cultivating a lifestyle of living by the inspiration of the Holy Ghost. It is
time for all the network of power working against you to be broken. It
is time for your destiny to find the expression. It is time for the glory of
God to be revealed in you. Peace.
