THIS OCTOBER, HEAVEN WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN QUICKLY!

Isaiah 60:22 (GW) ► “...At the right time I, the Lord, will make it happen quickly.”

Hear me as I hear the Lord: what has taken too long will not take forever! That matter you have prayed about, cried about, waited for and almost given up on, this October, HEAVEN WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN QUICKLY!

You have waited long enough for that phone call. You have checked that email enough. You have followed up on that application enough. You have heard “we will get back to you” enough. I prophesy, before you become tired of waiting, HEAVEN WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN QUICKLY!

That money you urgently need, HEAVEN WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN QUICKLY! Before the rent becomes an embarrassment, before the school fees become a problem, before that bill overwhelms you, may provision arrive. Delayed payments will be released. Business will pick up. Customers will come. Money will enter your hands!

That job, promotion, contract, admission, visa, appointment or approval you have been waiting for, HEAVEN WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN QUICKLY! Where your matter has been pending, may somebody attend to it. Where your file has been sitting, may it move. Where you have been hearing “still processing,” may your next response be “APPROVED!”

That help you desperately need, HEAVEN WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN QUICKLY! May somebody with the capacity to move your matter forward remember you. One call can connect you. One recommendation can introduce you. One person can open the door you have been knocking on for years.

That business breakthrough you have been praying for, HEAVEN WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN QUICKLY! May customers locate you. May sales increase. May that deal close. May that proposal receive attention. May one contract change your financial story.

That family matter that has lasted too long, HEAVEN WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN QUICKLY! That marital expectation, that concern over your children, that long-standing disagreement, that prayer your family has carried for years, may October bring the answer that turns tears into celebration.

That good news you have been expecting, HEAVEN WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN QUICKLY! May your phone ring with congratulations. May the email arrive. May the message come. May somebody call you and say, “You got it!” “You have been selected!” “Your payment has been released!” “Your request has been approved!”

Hear me: you will not enter November with every prayer point you brought into October. Something will leave your prayer list and enter your testimony list. Something you have been saying “I am believing God for” will become “SEE WHAT GOD HAS DONE!”

Before October is over, may your hands carry evidence. A key. A contract. An appointment letter. An approval. A payment alert. A certificate. A document. Something tangible that makes you forget how long you waited.

This October, may your testimony be: “I DIDN’T EXPECT IT TO HAPPEN THIS FAST!” HEAVEN WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN QUICKLY! In Jesus’ mighty name, AMEN!

Welcome to October!

HAPPY 10TH BIRTHDAY, TO MY SON, ANGEL CHIDERA DURU!

Today, the 29th day of September 2026, I, Bishop Duru Sunday Junior, The Philanthropist, together with my family, celebrate with great joy my beloved son, as he turns 10 years old!

Angel, my son, today you complete your FIRST DECADE on earth.

Ten years of life. Ten years of growth. Ten years of God's preservation. Ten years of watching the little boy we received with thanksgiving gradually become the young man standing before us today.

There is something significant about TEN in Scripture. In the creation account, “God said” ten times, and His Word brought forth light, order, life and fruitfulness.

God gave Israel the Ten Commandments, establishing His Word as the standard by which His covenant people would live.

Jesus spoke of ten virgins, teaching the importance of wisdom, preparation and readiness for the future.

But this one speaks directly to my heart as you turn ten:

Daniel 1:20 says, “In every matter of wisdom and understanding... he found them TEN TIMES BETTER.”

AS DANIEL WAS FOUND TEN TIMES BETTER, MAY YOUR LIFE BE TEN TIMES BETTER IN EVERY GOOD THING!

MAY YOU NOT JUST GROW OLDER, MAY YOU GROW BETTER!

On this your 10th birthday, as your father, I RELEASE THESE TEN “TEN TIMES BETTER” PROPHETIC DECLARATIONS OVER YOUR LIFE!

ONE! TEN TIMES BETTER IN WISDOM!
May God give you wisdom beyond your years. You will understand early what others understand late, and you will have the wisdom to make the right choices at every stage of your life.

TWO! TEN TIMES BETTER IN HEALTH!
You will grow strong and healthy. Your body will flourish, your strength will not fail, and no sickness or affliction will interrupt the beautiful journey God has prepared for you.

THREE! TEN TIMES BETTER IN ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE!
Your mind will be sharp. Your understanding will be fruitful. You will excel in your studies, stand out among your peers and continually produce results that make us proud.

FOUR! TEN TIMES BETTER IN CHARACTER!
You will become a man of integrity, discipline, kindness and honour. You will have the courage to do what is right, even when doing right is unpopular.

FIVE! TEN TIMES BETTER IN YOUR GIFTS AND ABILITIES!
Everything God has deposited inside you will find expression. Your gifts will develop, your abilities will make room for you, and your potential will not be buried.

SIX! TEN TIMES BETTER IN FAVOUR!
May God give you favour with Him and with people. Doors will open for you. Help will locate you. The right people will recognise what God has placed inside you and give you opportunities to rise.

SEVEN! TEN TIMES BETTER IN DISCERNMENT!
You will know the right people from the wrong people, the right opportunities from distractions and the right paths from dangerous ones. You will not be lost in your generation.

EIGHT! TEN TIMES BETTER IN OPPORTUNITIES!
You will go farther than the advantages you inherited. You will enter rooms we never entered, access opportunities we never had and accomplish things your parents could only dream about.

NINE! TEN TIMES BETTER IN IMPACT!
Your life will count. Your voice will matter. Your generation will be better because you were born. May God make you a blessing to your family, your community and wherever life takes you.

TEN! TEN TIMES BETTER IN THE FULFILMENT OF YOUR PURPOSE!
My son, you will become the man God had in mind when He sent you into this world. You will not waste your years. You will not waste your potential. You will fulfil your days, fulfil your assignment and bring glory to God.

Happy glorious 10th birthday, Angel Chidera Duru!

Daddy loves you deeply and celebrates you proudly. Mummy, John, Prince and the entire family join me today in thanking God for the gift that you are to us.

And to everyone celebrating my son today, I pray that celebration will never cease from your household. As you rejoice with us, may people gather for your own good news. May your home continually have reasons to celebrate, in Jesus' name!

𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗦𝗘𝗣𝗧𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥, 𝗜 𝗗𝗘𝗖𝗟𝗔𝗥𝗘: 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗪𝗔𝗜𝗧 𝗜𝗦 𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗥! 𝗜𝗧 𝗦𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗘 𝗧𝗢 𝗣𝗔𝗦𝗦!I don't know what you have been praying for, waiting ...

The Lord declares in 𝗘𝘇𝗲𝗸𝗶𝗲𝗹 𝟭𝟮:𝟮𝟱, “For I am the LORD: I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall come to pass; it shall be no more prolonged.”

Therefore, I speak over your September: 𝗡𝗢 𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗟𝗢𝗡𝗚𝗘𝗗 𝗗𝗘𝗟𝗔𝗬𝗦! What should take days will not take years. What should happen this month will not be carried into another year. Every unnecessary delay around your life, ministry, business, career, marriage, finances and family is terminated. 𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗣𝗛𝗘𝗖𝗬 𝗦𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗡𝗢 𝗟𝗢𝗡𝗚𝗘𝗥 𝗕𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗟𝗢𝗡𝗚𝗘𝗗!

Whatever God has spoken concerning you, 𝗜𝗧 𝗦𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗘 𝗧𝗢 𝗣𝗔𝗦𝗦! That promise will become a testimony. That expectation will become evidence. That prayer point will become an answered prayer. That vision will become a reality. 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗪𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗦𝗘𝗘 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗘𝗬𝗘𝗦 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗛𝗔𝗩𝗘 𝗕𝗘𝗘𝗡 𝗖𝗔𝗥𝗥𝗬𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗜𝗡 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗧!

This September, 𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗟𝗢𝗡𝗚-𝗔𝗪𝗔𝗜𝗧𝗘𝗗 𝗚𝗢𝗢𝗗 𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦 𝗦𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗘! The call you have been waiting for shall come. The approval shall come. The payment shall come. The contract shall come.

I prophesy over every good thing that has been 𝗣𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚: receive divine attention! Every file that has been sitting on somebody's table, move! Every application awaiting a decision, receive favour! Every payment being unnecessarily withheld, be released! Every door that has refused to open, 𝗢𝗣𝗘𝗡! Every promise that has remained a promise for too long, 𝗕𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗘 𝗔 𝗧𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗢𝗡𝗬!

You will not spend September explaining the same old problem. 𝗦𝗢𝗠𝗘𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗠𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗚𝗘! 𝗦𝗢𝗠𝗘𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗠𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗠𝗢𝗩𝗘! 𝗦𝗢𝗠𝗘𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗠𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗛𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗘𝗡! Where you have experienced delay, receive speed. Where you have experienced disappointment, receive divine appointment. Where you have been waiting, receive your answer. Where you have been knocking, 𝗠𝗔𝗬 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗗𝗢𝗢𝗥 𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗬 𝗢𝗣𝗘𝗡!

I decree: 𝗦𝗘𝗣𝗧𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥 𝗦𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗗𝗘𝗟𝗜𝗩𝗘𝗥 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗛𝗔𝗩𝗘 𝗖𝗔𝗥𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗗! What you have carried in prayer, deliver! What you have carried by faith, deliver! What you have carried as a vision, deliver! What you have carried as a prophecy, deliver! 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗪𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗖𝗔𝗥𝗥𝗬 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥!

And before this month is over, may somebody look at your life and say, “𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗬!” Finally, the door opened! Finally, the money came! Finally, the answer came! Finally, the business moved! Finally, the testimony happened! Finally, what God promised became visible!

HURRAH, PRINCE DURU IS 12!

Today, the 25th day of August 2026, I, Bishop Duru Sunday Junior, The Philanthropist, together with my family, celebrate with immense joy my beloved son, Prince Jason Duru, as he turns 12.

My son, this is not just another birthday. Twelve is not just a number. It is a prophetic age.

In Scripture, 12 carries the significance of divine order, government, authority and responsibility. Israel was established through twelve tribes. Jesus raised twelve apostles through whom He advanced the mandate of the Kingdom. And remarkably, it was at the age of 12 that Jesus was found in the temple, seated among the teachers, listening, asking questions and astonishing those who heard Him with His understanding.

So, as you turn twelve today, I pray that something extraordinary will begin to unfold in your life. May the PRINCE in you manifest! May the greatness God deposited inside you begin to find expression. May this age usher you into greater wisdom, deeper understanding, stronger character, sound health, uncommon intelligence and increasing responsibility.

May this new age come with a NEW EDGE!

You will be wiser. You will be stronger. You will be healthier. You will be sharper. You will excel in your studies. Your gifts will make room for you. Your mind will be illuminated. Your destiny will not be corrupted. Your feet will not enter the wrong paths. You will not become a victim of the errors and pressures of your generation.

As your father, I speak over you today: you will fulfil your days. You will fulfil your purpose. You will fulfil the reason God sent you into this world. No evil will truncate your journey. No wrong association will derail your destiny. The hand of the Lord will preserve you, distinguish you and establish you.

At twelve, Jesus began to demonstrate an unusual consciousness of His Father's business. Prince, may you discover early what others discover late. May God give you understanding beyond your years and the discipline to become the man He has designed you to be. You will not waste your youth. You will not waste your opportunities. You will not waste your potential.

And just as Scripture says concerning Jesus, “Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man” (Luke 2:52), so shall it be with you.

Continue to grow in WISDOM, in STATURE, and in FAVOUR WITH GOD AND MEN, my son.

May your tomorrow be greater than your today. May every new year of your life reveal a better, wiser and stronger version of you. May kings recognise what God has placed inside you. May doors of greatness open before you. May your name be associated with honour, excellence, compassion and impact.

Happy glorious 12th birthday, Prince Jason Duru!

Daddy loves you deeply and celebrates you proudly. Mummy, John and Angel join me in wishing you a beautiful, joyful and glorious birthday. May the memories of this day remain precious in your heart for many years to come.

And to everyone who celebrates my son today, sends a message, says a prayer or shares in our family's joy, I pray for you: celebration will never cease from your life and your household. As you celebrate with us, men and women will gather to celebrate you. The voice of rejoicing will continually be heard in your home, in Jesus' name!

25/08/2026

Today, I celebrate my beloved son, Prince Jason Duru, with great joy as he turns 12.

My son, as you enter this significant age, I speak the blessing of Luke 2:52 over your life: “Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.” May you grow in WISDOM, STATURE AND FAVOUR WITH GOD AND MEN.

May this NEW AGE give you a NEW EDGE! May the greatness within you find expression. You will excel in your studies, walk in sound health, grow in wisdom and discover your purpose early. Your gifts will make room for you, and your destiny will never be derailed by wrong choices, associations or the pressures of your generation.

As your father, I bless you: you will fulfil your days, fulfil your purpose and become everything God created you to be. May the Lord preserve you, distinguish you and cause your life to bring honour to God and joy to our family.

Happy glorious 12th birthday, Prince! Daddy loves you deeply and celebrates you proudly.
