AME F can be defined as the state of being known or recognised by many people because of one's achievements, skills, talents, etc. It can also mean to be of good repute, in favour, well regarded or highly esteemed in life.

It is good to be famous in what one does as this will increase one's recognition in their chosen field; make one to be easily accepted everywhere; make people to give heed to what one has to say; make one to have easy followership; increase the influence or impact one possesses over their area of operation and also bring honour to one's mentor.Interestingly, God wants His children's fame to spread. Jesus taught His disciples and even the multitude to have the mentality of been famous and renown for good (as salt and light), so that the world will know about their Father who is in Heaven and as such will be able to give the glory due to His name (Mathew 5:13-16).It wasn't surprising therefore that Jesus fame did spread in His lifetime. The teachings and the deeds of Jesus made His fame to spread quickly throughout His country, so that He was able to make great impact in just 3 1/2 years of ministry! (Mark 1:21-28; Luke 4:14-15). Many people thus believed that He came from God and gave due glory to God - His Father.A very powerful and practical way of evangelising for God is for the fame of we His children to spread. The extent of the coverage of our fame will directly aid the extent of the knowledge of God. So from this month of February and beyond, God wants our fame to spread throughout our region. He wants us to rely on His Spirit to help us and He wants us to make ourselves more 'visible in good deeds and words' where we are. May God increase our recognition as individuals and as a body in Jesus name.

ANY M times God makes promises years before He intends for them to happen. For example, Jesus coming was promised by God as far back as the Garden of Eden (Gen. 3:15) and subsequently by the Prophets (Isaiah 7:14, 9:6-7; Micah 5:2; etc.). The annunciation proper was later made to Mary

by Angel Gabriel when God was ready to fulfil His plan (Lk. 1:26-38).As we were rounding up 2015, God began to tell me what He will do for us in 2016. Some of the things He said:

FOR INDIVIDUALS1 Some families will trace the beginning of their generational blessings to this year.2. Some will receive help from unexpected sources.3. Grateful hearts will have more causes to be grateful4. For many, the pendulum of life will generally be on the upward swing5. A chosen few will receive blessings so large they can hardly contain them

FOR NIGERIA1. Things are likely to get tougher, before they get better, but things will definitely get better before the year ends.2. What He started last year, He will finish this year, provided we don’t rejoice too soon.

INTERNATIONAL1. Natural disasters, floods, fires, earthquakes, are likely to get progressively worse, until governments realize that these are part of divine judgement against those who have passed unholy laws. If governments will repent of disdaining Christ and His church, He will help them win the fight against terrorism.2. A major war will be averted this year3. A new sexually transmitted diseases will surface.

TEXT: Philippians 2:9-11 - Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

INTRODUCTION:

LOOKING at our theme for this month which says-Fame that spread, fame is the state being widely known or recognized by many people because of your achievements. The name of Jesus is

the most famous and known name that spread in His lifetime and is still spreading even after leaving us as man. Even devil and his agents know the name. A name that is above every creature, men and angels. A name that is above every power to the extent that at the mention of that name Jesus, every knee must bow to him. The whole creation must be in subjection to him: things in heaven, things on earth and things under the earth. The living and the dead obeyed the name Jesus; the name is so glorious we're still obeying him. He is highly exalted both in honour and in power. The name of the lord is wonderful. Everything you will ever need can be found in that name. It is the most powerful name in the universe. According to Jn.14:13-14 when you pray to make declarations in that glorious name, all your requests shall be granted and every decree shall be enforced.Name can help determine the future or destiny of a child.Ex.2:10 Says And the child grew older, she took him to Pharaoh's daughter and he became her son. She named him Moses, saying, "I drew him out of water.”Moses means pull/drawn out of water. He was given that name by Pharaoh's daughter after rescuing him from the Nile. That name eventually worked against Moses. Passed through the Red Sea (water)

in Ex.14, in Numbers chapter 11, it was w a t e r t h a t t h e I s r a e l i t e s w e r e complaining about and God told Moses to speak to the rock, but he struck the rock instead. Yes it was disobedience, yes it was anger, but what brought anger and disobedience? Water. Just because of water he couldn’t get to promise land. Name can work positively/negatively for the bearer.

Wonders of TheNAME OF JESUS

To God be the glory, great things He has done;So loved He the world that He gave us His Son,Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,And opened the life gate that all may go in.

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,Let the earth hear His voice!Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,Let the people rejoice!O come to the Father, through Jesus the Son,And give Him the glory, great things He has done.

O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,To every believer the promise of God;The vilest offender who truly believes,That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.

Refrain

Great things He has taught us, great things He has done,And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;But purer, and higher, and greater will beOur wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see.

WONDERS OF THE NAME OF JESUSContinued from Page 2I command every given name working against your destiny to be consumed by the fire of the Holy Ghost in Jesus name. 1 Chr.4:9-10 Says And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow. (10) And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve (pain) me! And God granted him that which he requested.You will be more honourable in your office in the mighty name of Jesus.You will be more honourable in your country in the mighty name of JesusYou will be more honourable in this land in the mighty name of JesusIn some gathering, decision cannot be taken without the presence or the opinion of some people. Even if it has been taken without his or her knowledge, such person’s decision will still be the final say. It supersedes every other decision.God will honour you in this land in Jesus nameYou don't name a child the way mother of Jabez did. Jabez means sorrow, pain. Thank God Jabez knew that he needs to cry to God for a change of name and God granted his request. Spiritual change of name was done on the name of Jabez. Gen. 17:4-5 As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations. (5) Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made theeGen.17:15 Says And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be.In Gen.12:2 God told Abram that He will make him a great nation, but at changing of his name in Gen.17 He said he will make him father of many nations. The same with Sarai (a princess) to Sarah (mother of mother of nations).It is scriptural to change your name like Jabez did spiritually. It is also scriptural to change it physically like in the case of Abraham and Sarah or the case of the surplanter to Israel. Name has a lot to do with the future. A lot to do with destiny. How and what your fame will look like.Any given name working against your home is hereby cancelled in Jesus name. Every given name working against your fame is cancelled in Jesus name. Your home used to be heaven on earth before the intruder came. Jesus will chase the intruder out and your home will be heaven again in Jesus name
