2010 “A MORE THAN CONQUERORS” YEAR
An awesome, Amazing and Majestic Year of Opportunities & Surprises
Psalms 65:11 “Thou crowns the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness”.
Psalms 118:24 “This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.”
Romans 8:35-39 “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

I can’t thank God enough for you and many others who have been recipients of the Achievers’ FAITH Digest (AFD) through the grace given to me in this kingdom assignment. Thanks also go to many which has made lost of useful constructive suggestions and other useful contributions to keep the kingdom mandate steady, constant and consistently overwhelming, dynamic and charismatic with great insight and foresight of Inspiration, revelation and empowerment. Much more thanks to God our Father the incomparable and uncommon Achiever, for the grace that He has bestowed to us and the enabling grace into this precious year 2010 after all the battles of the decade that has just gone with all the calamities of 2009 even to the last week and day of the year.
YEAR 2010
To some it’s normal to see 2010 dawn before them – but for those with knowledge, it’s by the grace of God. When you consider all the pains, trials and turbulent life experiences that have taken hold of our world in this past decade ending with 2009: The economic crunch and meltdown, business magnate and tycoon closures, unpredictable job losses, marital and relationship breakdown, various forms of natural disasters, domestic and regional unrest and terrorist terrorism and the arising of various new sicknesses and disease epidemics, political and climate instability and many others. There is a great need to thank God continuously for you being alive to make amends for a better tomorrow.
Prophetic Declaration
Isaiah 60:1-3 “Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising”.
Psalm 36:9 “They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures. For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.”
Proverbs 4:18 “But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.”
Isaiah 60:19-20 “The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended”.
2 Peter 1:19 “We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the DAY STAR arise in your hearts:”
Matt 2:1-2 “Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen His star in the east, and are come to worship him”.
When you skip through the various channels on TV, radio stations, go through the World Wide Web – all the news, discussions, debates, comments that you hear are opinions on the way the world and national economy, politics and even the climatic condition or prediction will go as we turn into this decade beginning with year 2010. Some of the analyses are negative, while some with both negative and positive connotations and others with undecided conclusions.
People tend to lean towards these debates and declarations of their leaders in government, business, employers and financial statements of fact through the various media and analyst, while others might lean towards the dictates of family circumstances, natural laws and dictates of colleagues or self made intuitions. But the Holy Scriptures enjoined us to attend to God’s word and incline our ears to His sayings, because they are Life and health – medicine –to our destiny – Proverbs 4:20-22 “My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.”
Beloved, hear the Word of the Lord. There may be ‘facts’ to prove how our circumstances will turn out – the good Lord wants you to ARISE and SHINE for your light is come to shine in the midst of the darkness that has befallen the world. For this is the year 2010, and each day that the Lord has made for you to arise, shine and celebrate – be glad in it. Enter the year 2010 with gladness no matter the darkness you tend to see or the enemy of our faith tend to remind you of, in the events of last decade which is behind you and not before you.
The word of the Lord came to me saying – “Say to my people, as the wise men saw the star of Christ to guard and guide them, so shall my people be led to their place of salvation by my Spirit. That as every star above in the sky shines, so shall every one of my people shine in the midst of the confusion in this world. For the light is superior to darkness, so shall they reign supreme for the daystar is come in their hearts to cause them to shine and glory in the Lord – Therefore, ARISE, SHINE and walk in the path of the daystar – the Word – to lighten you up as a star. For I the Lord am the fountain of life and in my light you will find the true light that will guide to your destiny and places of rest”
Beloved, your response by faith to the negatives and facts you see and hear determines how much of God’s word you will walk in and how the Lord can crown the year 2010 for your good as you serve Him in spirit and in truth. Triumph and victory is available to you if you incline your ear to the saying of the Lord for the year 2010. Crowning the New Year with goodness is God’s plan, therefore ARISE and SHINE.
Year 2010 – “A More Than Conquerors” Year!
Romans 8:35-39 “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”.
2 Corinthian 2:14“Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.”
The scriptures of Romans 8: 35-38 sums up the event of the last decade ending with year 2009. When you section the scriptures by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, you will discover to recover that all aspects of life troubles and happenings and their resultant as we witness in the past decade in terms of – Physical, social, emotional, spiritual, mental, financial, security, natural disasters etc are all summed up in that verse. And this is true to an individual or to a family or a nation.
And these life challenges in Romans 8:35-39 are the things that have made many to give up their faith in God and some tendency to either believe the mere fact of life rather than the truth that the scripture offers us in Christ Jesus our Lord and saviour. The scripture in context is not questioning about Christ loving us madly and ravishing His glory upon us but question is directed towards and about us loving Christ. It is a call for us to be able to see life through the mirror of what Christ’s love has made us become so that we can be able to turn tribulation, distress, persecution, famine, nakedness, peril, wars etc inside out as in the scripture.
When you walk into year 2010 with the concept that God has made you through Christ – MORE THAN A CONQUEROR – you will not let what will come your way as in 2009 determine your destiny and your daily joy. Because God has said you are more than conquerors and you are made to triumph not just in one place or situation but in every single place or situation that comes your way. For success is failure turn inside out. That means you determine the atmosphere you want to enjoy as a thermostat and not a thermometer. God is in the know to perfect and complete all that concerns you – Philippians 1:6
Beloved, year 2010 is a year of awesome, amazing and majestic opportunities and surprises for all God’s people. You need to brace up your faith, get set to ride on the great opportunities and majestic surprises the Lord will bring your way. This is the year to see through the mirror of who God has made you become. I pray that you will know how much love Christ has lavished on you that nothing will limit you to ridicule the love of Christ. You are more than conquerors through Him that love you, amen
YEAR 2010 – Incline to God’s Sayings
Prov 4:18-22 “But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble. My son, attend to my words; INCLINE thine ear unto MY SAYINGS. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh”.
Isaiah 55:8-9 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts”.
Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end”.
Beloved, year 2010 is a year of great possibilities, opportunities and majestic surprises for God’s people in spite of what news you hear, see and feel. The scriptures above indicate one prominent statement of faith – Our God is faithful consistently consistent towards His thoughts and plans about us. He is a God who will keep to His sayings even in the midst of life’s mess-ups – if only you will incline your ears and attend to God’s sayings and keep them in the frontlets of your eyes. I compel you to own a diary or notebook to write down every single instruction God will minister to you, for the words if you obey them, they will shape your daily joy and destiny. Give your ears to the voice of the Holy spirit speaking into your spirit being to shape and mould destiny and your life on a daily basis.
The scriptures in context simply indicate that:
- God’s thoughts and plans toward us are good.
- God’s thoughts and plans toward you are not evil.
- God’s plans for you are peaceful.
- God has hope and a beautiful future and welfare and final outcome for you.
- . . . & many more.
Inclining to the sayings of God is what will take you to your promised blessings in 2010. This is a choice that you have to make lest you walk like mere men and not as God’s chosen child designed for victory and triumph.
YEAR 2010 – Exercise The Force Of Faith
Matthew 11:11-12 “Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.”
1 Timothy 4:8 “For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.”
2 Timothy 1:6-7 “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”
Beloved, the total package of the kingdom work as it affects our redemption is not for cowards, the fearful and those who don’t want to arise and take their place in REDEMPTION. The scriptures in context indicate that only by the way of exercise can we have profitable blessings in all things, not only in this life but in the life to come. That is to say that if you don’t take your place, the enemy can even send you home before time. The promise to complete package is in EXERCISING your Faith.
The scripture calls that exercise that creates profit, the force of faith. Until the days of John the Baptist, men who had enjoyed profitable kingdom life were people who refused to compromise and to give up for mere chance because of oppositions. The way life is tends to be today, it is a call for all Achievers’ of God that want to make a meaningful life for themselves and others, to arise in their spirit with the force of faith. Only the violent in faith, I mean in the realm of the spirit, will be able to dispossess the enemy and break forth into the fullness of all things that Christ has made available for them. Otherwise we live within the concept of religious activities.
Are you called or have strong leading to be in business, politics, education, medicine, science, technology, social, government, spiritual leadership etc? They don’t come by chance, besides you don’t last long there by chance. If we must become a voice and not a mere echo in this dispensation and generation, we must arise with the spirit of grace that is under the influence of the force of faith to bring the changes that posterity will reckon with and celebrate. The kingdom will populate and the enemy will be kept at bay. Year 2010 is not for cowards nor the fearful, therefore arise boldly in the light of the scriptures to make a profitable and colourful year 2010. (Hebrews 4:141-16).
YEAR 2010 – Walk in Diligence
Prov 22:28 – 29 “Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set. Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men”.
Prov 12:11 “He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding”.
Prov 28:19 “He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: but he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough”.
Heb 11:6 “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him”.
In this last decade just ending with 2009 in my years of serving the Lord, and now in seeing the heart of God by the knowledge and understanding that He has given me thus far, I have come to realise why many great prophesies given to people as individuals or groups remained stalled or appear to be unfulfilled.
Its is because some people either by ignorance or lack of sufficient knowledge, just receive the prophetic declaration on new years eve with great excitement as well as in the beginning of the year without walking diligently in the fulfilment of the words of grace in their life. There is an ancient landmark in the scripture that makes the diligent stand before kings not mere men and that makes God rewards those who diligently seek Him. It is the spirit of diligence that makes some stand out from others even though they all have equal opportunities to be successful.
In year 2010, colourful living is not for those who are lazy to walk in God’s prophetic statement of faith. Crown success is not for the idle minded but for the diligent. Diligence – a consistent steady effort or hard work – is for those who want to reign in life and be crowned as kings in their doings even as the scripture promises.
Rev 5:9-10 “And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth”.
Romans 5:17 “For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)”.
Being a child of God demands for the pressing if we must make progress, and reign in life and in the year 2010; for great and established achievement is recorded on diligent pursuits. He that diligently tills his ground shall have plenty of bread say the scriptures – Prov.12:11; 28:19. Diligence involves investing your abilities, strength and all that you have into the pursuit of your life vision and mission for year 2010 in order to earn the desired crown year.
God will only prosper the callings – mission – in your life by prospering your efforts, your investments toward your goals through diligence (Heb 11:6). Run away from idleness and idle people, because idleness is a career and carrier of POVERTY be it spiritual, physical, financial etc, and it has no remedy. It is a cancerous disease, so fly away from it. It makes the acts of redemption of no effect in the life of those that live in it.
Therefore invest in labour – diligently tilling your land – and reap the great harvest of 2010. For your part in 2010 is the task of planting and watering, God’s task is to bring about the increase and overflow – 1Corinthians 3:6-7; Philippians 3:14; 1 Corinthians 9:24; Psalm 1:1-3. Be diligent in prayers, in studying – not just reading – the scriptures, in fellowship, in business and in all aspects of doing life to enable you know how to observe God’s inspiration and revelation for your empowerment in breakthroughs. (Joshua 1:8)
YEAR 2010 – Obedience in Service
Job 36:11 “If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasure”
Ex 23:25-27 “And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee. There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil. I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people to whom thou shalt come, and I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee”.
Isaiah 1:19 “If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:”
Joshua 24:15-17 ‘’ . . . Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve . . . But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord . . . ‘’
The things that have happened to the world economy, political instabilities, climatic predictions and terrorists invasion to get rid of other humans is far beyond the thought that its the fault of the United States of America or any other nation that may have been attributed with the evils and problems today – be it domestic or otherwise.
These happenings are a process through which God wants His Church to ARISE and take their place in SERVICE through obedience to bring about His purposes to the world in His Church. God wants man’s wisdom to be turned to foolishness by the unparallel wisdom He wants His Church to possess to teach the world the path of righteousness, true riches and prosperity.
Eph 3:10-11 ”To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:”
The context scriptures on obedience indicate that if we obey and serve Him:
- We will spend our days in prosperity.
- We will spend our years in pleasure.
- We will eat the good of the land.
- We will not be barren in the land, in our body & in our business.
- We will be in good health and strength.
- We will not have miscarriages in body, vision, ministry, marriages, business etc.
- We will be free from the evil that is in the world
- . . . And many more. (See 2Peter 1:1-13; John 15:1-8)
Beloved, these are the days when our Christian faith is challenged by what is happening in our world on a daily basis. It is only by engaging in serving the Lord through absolute obedience that we can bring about a true and lasting change in our lives and society in such a time as this. Serving the Lord in obedience includes – but is not limited to – the following:
- Investing in our Time
- Investing Financially
- Investing in our Physical and mental abilities.
- Investing in our Spiritual and ministerial abilities
- Engaging in various opportunities in the Services of a local church.
- Reaching out to the poor and needy.
- Giving towards missionary causes
- Reaching out to the causes of your community and neighbourhood
- . . . and many more
Serving the Lord in obedience can only be achieved through the heart of love in spirit and in truth. You cannot serve the Lord effectively without a genuine act of love in our hearts and lives. In 1st Corinthians 12, we are told of spiritual gifts but to effectively function with them as in 1st Corinthians 14, there is an injunction in chapter 13 to express an excellent spirit of love. Love is the only principle that can cause a genuine service of obedience to bring about God’s blessings in our lives. (Mark 12:29-31; Gal 5:6, 13; 1 Tim. 1:5)
Year 2010 January – Month Of Beginning
Job 8:7 “Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.”
Job 42:12-17 “So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses. He had also seven sons and three daughters. And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch. And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren. After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, even four generations. So Job died, being old and full of days. “
Luke 2:52 ‘’And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.”
Psalm 115:9-16 “O Israel, trust thou in the LORD: he is their help and their shield. O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield. Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield. The LORD hath been mindful of us: he will bless us; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron. He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great. The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children. Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth. The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD’S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.”
The year 2010 is come and the month of beginning – JANUARY – is also come. It is the dawn of a new day and a fresh beginning. The how in which one starts this January has a lot to do with what it will become at the end of the year. The path of the good man is ordered by the Lord and a man of diligence will always end with plenty.
What is vital and important at this month of January for every of God’s Child is to be humble to start small, if that means a fresh beginning. Don’t say that you don’t have enough to start. The scriptures above say that God will reward every small beginning and it’s not the size but the faith. Every seed of a small beginning has the potential to succeed, every seed can become a tree and every tree can become a forest.
We serve the God of increase, hence in Psalms 115:9-16, the three groups mentioned there – House of Israel, House of Aaron and the house of those that fear the Lord – together are people of covenant. For that, God has determined to increase and blessed them along with their children more and more. When you faithfully begin small, you open up avenue of increase in other areas of your life.
Job in the scripture lost all through trials, but began small and was later multiplied with increase. In same manner our Lord Jesus grew with increase from the manger birth. I believe your humility in the face of nothing to start small, will bring forth a great increase for you.
Beloved, don’t just stay idling, murmuring and complaining and blaming others at this New Year beginning, if you can just start with the available small opportunity, God will bless and increase you. A little time to pray, read and study your Bible can open up great avenues of revelation, inspiration and empowerment. Your little act of kindness, giving or tithing can create other open doors and stop the devourer. Your little investment in that business can turn the whole history of your life around again.
Therefore, this JANUARY of 2010, as a month of great beginning, don’t take things for granted, don’t eat up your little seed; sow it in life into that given cause(s) by faith, to that which God has put in your spirit, for there your destiny may be shaped. A little start to learn how to forgive and make peace will bring forth healing and unbelievable miracles. Make wise plans and escape from buy today and pay tomorrow nightmare. Start saving and investing small and make progress to your destiny of colourful living.
Finally – God Crowns Year 2010
Psm 65:11 (1-13) ‘’Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness’’.
Luke 9:62 “And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.’’
Hebrews 6:10 “For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.’’
Proverbs 23:18 “For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off. “
Proverbs 24:13-14 “My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste: So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off.’’

One thing that God has assured me in the Spirit and in the Word is to crown the year with His goodness and this is why Christ came, to give you a good, beautiful and colourful life. (John 10:10; 3 John 2).
In this Year 2010, know that the Lord has promised and He is set to bring an end to all your battles, because your expectation cannot be cut off. Surely there is an end on this side of heaven to all the pains, disappointments, trials, troubles, sufferings and sacrifices you’ve been through.

I am assured of God’s ability to turn your darkness and setbacks of 2009 and the past decade into a blossoming glory in 2010.
