Rhapsody of Realities, Wednesday, March 29th. 2023, By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome PhD DSc DD

DEAL WITH IT ON YOUR KNEES

And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed (Luke 22:41).

Our opening verse reminds of what the Apostle Paul said in Ephesians 3:14-15: “I bow my knees before the Father of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named.” Learn to bow your knees in prayer. Sometimes people go through tough times and severe persecutions. The way to deal with such situations is on your knees in prayer.

In Luke 18:1-8, the Lord Jesus emphasized the importance of persistence in prayer. This is because being the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, you can change anything through prayer. When Satan stirs persecution against us, take it to the Lord in prayer.

Never allow any crisis or situation take your attention such that you begin to mull it over, feeling helpless. One minute with the Holy Ghost will make a far much greater impact than five hours of melancholy and sad cogitations. So, pray in, and with, the spirit. “Is any among you afflicted? Let him pray…” (James 5:13). Ephesians 6:18 says, “Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit….”

It doesn’t matter the persecution or how unsavoury the economy of your nation is; keep praying about it. Ecclesiastes 11:3 says, “If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth: and if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be.”

Keep watering the clouds with prayer; soon enough, the condensation will take place and there’ll be a deluge: the answers will come pouring down.

Confession

The Lord reigns and rules in the affairs of men. The Lord is strong and mighty, the God of all flesh, and there’s nothing too difficult for Him. He’s the God of possibilities, and He’s given me the power of attorney to use the Name of Jesus to effect the changes I desire. Therefore, I live an ever-winning life, with dominion over Satan and his cohorts, spreading the Gospel of Christ in my world and beyond, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Further Study:

Luke 18:1
“And he spake a parable unto them [to this end], that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;”

1 Thessalonians 5:17
“Pray without ceasing.”

James 5:16 AMPC
“Confess to one another therefore your faults (your slips, your false steps, your offenses, your sins) and pray [also] for one another, that you may be healed and restored [to a spiritual tone of mind and heart]. The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].”

I have been made more than a conqueror in this life. I live in the victory that Christ provisioned for me; therefore, I am not afraid of sickness, for I reign in life through Christ Jesus. My spirit is full of the joy of the Lord at all times. With this joy, I draw from the wells of salvation. My progress is unstoppable because I cannot be limited by sickness, disease, or the negativities of the ordinary life. I am a partaker of God’s glory, dominion, greatness, excellence, victories, power, and grace. This divine connection produce wellness for my body and keeps it alive and in perfect condition.

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me and in me, causing life to spring forth from within me. Everywhere I go bubbles with life and joy because I’m a God-carrying vessel. I carry eternal life and when I lay hands on the sick, they recover.  Divine health is my nature; therefore, I am not subject to the elements of this world and my body cannot be dominated or put under by headaches, fevers, diabetes, or any manner of sickness. I am seated together with Christ, far above all principality and power. The elements of this world and the decay that is in it have no place or power in my body. I exercise dominion over my body through the Word and I exercise dominion over sickness and death. I dwell in Zion, the city of the living God, where sickness is alien and illegal. I do not fall sick because I’m a partaker of God’s divine nature. The life in me is indestructible! I am never feeble because I have the strength of God working in me.

Thank You, heavenly Father, for you have satisfied me with all the beautiful things of life. I am bursting forth in health always and everyone around me is a partaker of the blessings of God upon my life, in Jesus name. Amen.

Welcome to Nze Ikay's Investigative Blog, A Place Where Truth Finds Its Voice. A New Chapter in African Investigative Journalism. "The duty of the press is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable." — Finley Peter Dunne I welcome you to Nze Ikay's Investigative Blog, the digital heartbeat of Nze Ikay Media and Communication Limited. Here, we do not merely report news. We dig deep. We ask the uncomfortable questions. We follow the footprints in the dark, armed only with the torch of truth and the compass of integrity. Our Mandate Is Africa, Nigeria, and the Untold Stories of Mama Africa. This platform is dedicated to investigative journalism that matters. From the corridors of power in Abuja to the remote villages of the Niger Delta, from the bustling markets of Lagos to the mineral-rich lands of the North, we will be present, we will ask questions, and we will tell the story as it is. Our focus is unapologetically African, with a special lens on our beloved home country, Nigeria, a nation of boundless potential too often betrayed by those entrusted with her care. As the Igbo elders say, "A toad does not run in the daytime for nothing." When something is amiss, when the powerful conspire against the powerless, when public funds disappear into private pockets, when elections are stolen from the people — someone must run. Someone must shout. Someone must expose. That someone is us - Nze Ikay Media And Communications. On this media outlet, you will find: 1. Deep-dive investigations into corruption, electoral fraud, and institutional failures. 2. Exclusive reports on matters that affect the lives of everyday Nigerians. 3. Unfiltered analysis of the political and social forces shaping Africa, our continent. 4. Stories of resilience, the Nigerians and Africans who refuse to be silenced. Our Commitment: We make this solemn pledge to you, our readers: We will not be bought. We will not be silenced. We will not bow to the pressure of the powerful. As the Yoruba say, "Bi a ba n'pa eku fun eku, a ma n'pa eku fun eku, ti a ba n'pa eran, a ma n'pa eran." meaning, If we are killing rats, we kill rats; if we are killing bigger game, we kill bigger game. We treat all stories with equal diligence, and no one is too powerful to escape our scrutiny. So, Join the Movement. Truth-telling is not a solo journey. We invite you to be part of this mission: Share information (securely and anonymously) if you have stories that need telling. Engage with our content, comment, challenge, and contribute to the discourse. Stand with us as we navigate the dangerous but necessary path of investigative journalism. The road will not be easy. The powerful do not sleep, and they do not take kindly to those who shine light on their deeds. But as our ancestors taught us, "Onye amaghị nwanne ya, ọ ga-arahụ n'ọhịa", meaning, one who does not know their sibling will sleep in the wild. We know who we are. We know whose side we are on. We are on the side of the people. And God is with us. Most importantly, remember that evil prevails when good men sit and do nothing. Welcome to Nze Ikay's Investigative Blog. Where truth is not just told — it is unearthed. Follow us for stories that matter. Share for justice that lasts. https//:www.nzeikayblog.com Nze Ikay Founder/Lead Investigator Nze Ikay Media and Communication Limited © 2026 Nze Ikay Media and Communication Limited.
