Church Security. God protects His Church. God is deeply interested in the spiritual and physical safety of His Church
INTRODUCTION:
The Almighty God is deeply interested in the spiritual and physical safety of His Church. God protects His Church. We should be prepared to do what needs to be done to protect ourselves, but our overall safety is of the Lord. See Proverbs 21:31; Psalm 127:1.
It will therefore be foolish not to take the measures that are within our purview to protect ourselves.
There is a general misconception that since our security is in the hands of God, we do not need to bother ourselves much about security issues.
Indeed Psalm 91 and Psalm 127:1 and many others offer solid assurances to us about God’s protective shield over His children. But we will also note that David who wrote Psalm 91, 46, 23 and many others had body guards. See 2Chronicles 11: 24 – 26; 2 Samuel 23:22-24.
David chose the best among the warriors as his own personal security guards. Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, was one of David’s “mighty men”, a collection of the very best, the toughest military men.
The Bible describes Benaiah as a fearless warrior noted for his heroic exploits. 1 Chronicles 11:22. Throughout his reign David maintained a very powerful standing army. 2 Samuel 8:18; 20:23; 23:23; 1Chronicles 18:17.
God expects us to be mindful of our physical security.
GOD IS INTERESTED IN SECURITY
Security as a concept originated from God. God takes security very seriously; He neither sleeps nor slumbers (Psalm 121:4). See also Genesis 3:24; Isaiah 14:12-20; Revelation 12:7-9. God is actually the Commander of the host of heaven – He is charge of the security of the world. God is Jehovah Sabaoth. Psalm 46:7. God watches after the world. Psalm 127:1.
There are biblical references which support the view that God is invested and interested in security.
In Genesis 3:24, we see a cherubim guarding the Garden of Eden with a flaming sword.
The Bible describes Angel Michael in terms that reflect his status as a warrior leading an uncountable number of very powerful fighting angels who excel in strength. Psalms 103:20.
Michael the Archangel is in a sense, Heaven’s 5-star General. See Daniel 10:1321; 12:1; Revelation 12:7-8.
Believers must therefore note the following facts:
1. It is God, not humans that invented security. Genesis 3:24, Isaiah 14:12-20; Revelation 12:7-9.
2. God has emplaced security in the present heaven. Isaiah 14:12-20; Revelation 12:7-9.
3. God deployed security to guard the Garden of Eden. Genesis 3:23-24.
4. God has designed a security architecture for the coming New Heaven and New Earth. Revelation 21:12. The gates of the New Heaven and New Earth will be guarded by angels. Revelation 21:27.
5. Our protection is God’s duty, and this is guaranteed. See Psalm 121:4. 6. God deploys chariots for the protection and defence of His choice vessels whose destinies and ministries are tied to destinies of nations. See 2Kings 6:16-18. 7. We must fulfil our part in God’s security architecture for the Church. Do not take chances with Church security. See Ephesians 4:27, 1Peter 5:8.
PYSICAL SECURITY IN THE BIBLE
There are many instances in the Bible to support the view that God wants us to be proactive concerning our physical safety.
Moses defended the daughters of Jethro when other shepherds drove them and their flocks away from the watering place. See Exodus 2:16-17.
The ancient congregations of Israel had gatekeepers who watched out for danger. Let us not be “in the spirit” such that we neglect to do the things that God requires us to do for our safety. See 1 Chron 9:21-24, Nehemiah 4:10-23. But more critically, see Luke 22:36.
The Church must protect itself from enemies that will easily harm us if we are not watching.
God expects us to be wise. See also, Numbers 1:53, 2Kings 11:7, 11, Esther 8:10-11, Exodus 2:16-17, Judges 2:16, Psalm 94:16, Ezekiel 33:1-9, Luke 22:36-38 and Psalm 144:1, 6.
The Bible has a lot to say about not ignoring physical safety.
In Luke 22:36, the Lord directed His disciples to carry a sword for protection.
Paul the Apostle was kept from those who would have harmed him on many occasions. See Acts 9:25; 17:10; 19:30; and 23:10.
Nehemiah trusted God for the safety of the children of Israel but they held swords in one hand for their protection as they built the broken-down walls of Jerusalem. Nehemiah 4:18.
Father Abraham had trained security guards. Genesis 14:14.
The Lord told us to turn the other cheek in Matt 5:39, but this was within the framework of self-control in personal interactions. He commanded the disciples to be armed for their protection in perilous times or situations. See Luke 22:36-38.
Consider this:
1. The Levites were not only to help the priests in their service and administration, but also to be guards for the Tabernacle, and later for the Temple. See Numbers 1:53.
2. Benaiah who was a member of King David’s team tagged his mighty men, was the son of Jehoiada, a priest. See 1Chron 11:21-23; 12:27.
3. After the usurper, Queen Athaliah had reigned for eight years, the High Priest Jehoiada had Levites who were Temple guards to serve as the personal bodyguards for Prince Joash as he was crowned the King. See 2 Kings 11:17-11.
4. God always raised men and women in the mould of military leaders to rescue Israel from their oppressors. See Judges 2:16.
5. When Mordecai became the Prime Minister of Persia, he authorized the Jews to defend themselves if attacked. See Esther 8:9-11.
6. In the Old Testament, God promised the Israelites that they would dwell in the land in safety if they obeyed His commandments. He was guaranteeing their safety. Deuteronomy 12:10. See Leviticus 25:18–19; 26:37. The Israelites defended themselves against the Amalekites after leaving Egypt. See Exodus 17:8-16. 8. The Lord Jesus taught His disciples the importance of self-defence. See Luke 22:35-36.
CONCLUSION
Children of God must be actively involved in designing physical security measures to keep worshippers safe. There were angels all around baby Jesus, but Joseph played his part.
Matthew 2:12-15. Believers must proactively prepare for unforeseen security challenges.
Proverbs 22:3. We must responsibly protect our worship places and homes.
Luke 11:2. Saints of God must be security conscious at all times, but not out of fear.
Matthew 24:43. It is Biblical to defend ourselves against attackers, in concert with state security agents.
Esther 8:10-11. We are to watch and pray.
Mathew 26:4. Vigilance must precede our prayers. Vigilance should and must be our watchword at all times. The fact is security begins with you the individual. You are in reality the best security officer for your life and personal property. It is true that as children of God, we are encompassed with a network of angelic guards (Psalm 91:1, 11-12) and in some cases, human security operatives, but we must take charge of our personal and collective safety. This has to remain our personal nonexchangeable responsibility (Nehemiah 4:9).

Today I’ll be talking to us briefly on the topic “No More Reproach”, and the text is taken from Joshua 5: 3-9.
A reproach is a state of shame or loss of honor and goodwill; it is a stigma, it’s a taboo, or an abomination or shortcomings; it’s a state of disgrace.
What are the major causes of reproach?
Failure:it simply means lack of success. Luke 5:5.
Barrenness: can either mean not good enough or a state of not producing fruit or seed. Mark 11: 12 – 14, 1st Samuel 1: 1 -10, Genesis 30: 1 & 2.
Debt or indebtedness: arise(s) as a result of lack of cash flow or revenue; it’s a state of cash crunch and bankruptcy; it’s a state of default in meeting financial obligations as at when due. 2nd Kings 4.
Disability: is a state of physical or mental condition that makes you not to be able to apply a part of your body either completely or partially; it’s a state of incapacitation. John 5, Acts of Apostles 3: 1 & 2.
Slavery, bondage and oppression. Exodus 3: 1-8.
Sin, ignorance and the devil. Romans 6: 23.

God vested all authority in the name of Jesus. Use the Name of Jesus. The Dominion Of Christ Name.
So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God (Mark 16:19).
The Bible says God vested all authority in the Name of Jesus (Philippians 2:9-10); His Name has the greatest honour, the greatest authority ever! Today, if you believe in that Name, happy are you! It doesn’t matter what might have plagued you; it doesn’t matter for how long you’ve been under or on the sidewalk of life; your victory is guaranteed.
Many haven’t understood the power, glory and dominion of His Name. His Name destroys cancer, brings health and wholeness to your physical body. His Name brings you liberty from the bondage of Satan. Are you in a dilemma or a tempestuous situation? Use the Name of Jesus. His Name has power in heaven, in the earth, and under the earth.
No demon can resist the power and dominion of His Name. His Name is an instrument; it’s a weapon! It’s guaranteed to produce the result you expect because when you make a demand in His Name, it’s as though Jesus Himself were making that demand. Everything that exists in this world and beyond is subject to His Name.
1 John 5:13 reveals something beautiful; it tells us to believe on the Name of the Son of God. That simply means to put the Name of Jesus to work! It’s your access to a life of unending victories, ever-increasing glory and abundant blessings. Philippians 2:10 says, “…at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth.”
In your life, be unruffled and at peace every day, irrespective of the adversaries or adversities that you might face. His Name is your defence and assurance of victory. Maybe today, some doors seem to have been shut against you; there’s pressure and tension on every side; use the Name of Jesus. His Name can be trusted. Trust and call on that Name today. Glory to God!
CONFESSION
In the Name of Jesus Christ, I pray for God’s children around the world who are sick in their bodies. I pass healing to them; the liberty of Jesus Christ is theirs, and right now, the feeling of wellness returns to them. I declare that they’re free by the power of the Holy Ghost! I pray specially for children; I command the demons of affliction to depart from them! Divine healing is raining on God’s people all around the world today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Romans 12:1 NIV “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.”
In his letter to the Romans, Paul addressed his brothers and sisters in Christ and not the people of the world, admonishing them to present their bodies as holy sacrifices to God. Realise that being born again, you were paid for, and your body belongs to God; He only made you its custodian, but it’s actually His property: “For you were bought at a price; therefore, glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s” (1 Corinthians 6:20).
Don’t give your body to sin, sickness, wickedness, lust or even the devil for his works. Give your body to the Lord! Let Him have the sole right to decide what happens to and with your body. And you’ll be amazed at what will happen in your life, for His glory will be revealed in you! Amen.
1 Samuel 12:24
1 Corinthians 6:19-20
PRAY
Dear heavenly Father, I thank you for the privilege of presenting my body to you as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto you. I refuse to give my body to any evil thing. My entire body belongs to you, and your righteousness is manifested in it, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

If someone listens to God’s word but doesn’t do what it says, he is like a person who looks at his face in a mirror, studies his features, goes away, and immediately forgets what he looks like. James 1:23–24, GW
The Right Mirror!
James says that God’s Word is like a mirror. It reflects who you really are. What God says about you is the true image that you need to keep in front of you. You are not defined by people, by your past, by how you were raised, or by what didn’t work out. You are defined by your Creator. When you look in the mirror of God’s Word, you’ll see that you are valuable, talented, confident, favored, blessed, and worthy. You have to see it on the inside before it will happen on the outside. You have to start seeing yourself as whole, as free, as forgiven and clean, as redeemed and restored. Start seeing yourself as blessed, prosperous, crowned with favor, one of a kind. As you see yourself as God sees you, it begins to heal a damaged self-image, to repair the hurts and scars that have caused you to see yourself as lacking, inferior, unqualified. It may not happen overnight, but if you keep seeing yourself the right way, little by little you’re going to become what you’re seeing.
Prayer!
“Father, thank You that You have made me the way I am and that what You say about me is my true image. Thank You that Your Word defines me rather than what other people say about me or what has happened in my past. I declare that I am becoming more and more like who You say I am. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
Thank You Jesus,

In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.

Though the Lord is on high, yet He regards the lowly; but the proud He knows from afar. Psalm 138:6
God is the greatest; yet as great as He is, He regards us all. He sent His Son Jesus to pay the price for the salvation of everyone in the world no matter who they are or what they’ve done. His mercy and love are for everyone.
Therefore, you should regard everyone too. Regarding others means you treat them honourably, and respectfully no matter who they are. This is the right way to behave as God’s child.
1 John 3:8
Let’s Pray
Thank you, dear Father, for teaching me through Your Word today to honour and regard everyone, for you love them as much as you have loved me and each one is valuable to you, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

INTRODUCTION: The general theme of Paul’s letter to the church in Rome was the righteousness of God. In our earlier studies, we learnt that all humanity is hopelessly guilty of sin and needs to be rescued. Though the Jewish believed they were better off than the non-Jewish as God gave them the law or Torah to guide the way they lived, we saw that they were wrong, as they are as sinful as the rest of humanity. We learnt that there can be no salvation based on obeying the law. God loves humanity and because of His righteousness, He made provisions for saving humanity by sending Jesus Christ as a Messiah to die as a sacrifice for sin. Jesus also resurrected thereby making life available to all people. Once we have faith in Christ, we are given a new status, become a member of a new family, forgiven our sins, have a new future and can begin a journey of a transformed life by God’s grace. Last week, we examined death through Adam and Life through Christ, emphasizing that justification by faith in Christ creates new humanity and is the only way to salvation. Also, by baptism we identify with the death and resurrection of Jesus to live a new life. We also discussed the availability of Grace, concluding it is always available. Today, we continue to look at God’s creation of a new humanity, by closely examining the law and its purpose and what the actual problem of humanity is, concluding in chapter 8 that the real solution is Jesus and the Spirit that enable people fulfil the call of the commands to love God and their neighbour.
OUTLINE 1
I. FREED FROM THE LAW/AN ILLUSTRATION FROM MARRIAGE – ROMANS 7: 1 – 6:
• The law only has authority over the living: Romans 7:1-3.
• Union with Christ frees from bondage of law: Romans 7: 4- 6.
ii. LAW AND SIN – ROMANS 7: 7 – 12
• The law is not sin but reveals what sin is: verse 7.
• Without law, there is no sin and sin is dead. Sin produces evil desires: Romans7: 8; Romans 4:15; 1Corinthians 15:56
• With the law and commandments, all will be guilty and die: Romans 7: 10.
• The Law is holy, just and good – verse 12: 1 Timothy 1:8
iii. INNER CONFLICT/LAW CANNOT SAVE FROM SIN – ROMANS 7: 13 – 25
• The law by itself is spiritual and good because it reveals our sinful nature: Romans7: 14 -16.
• Sin in our natural bodies makes us misbehave – Romans 7:17 – 20; Acts 10:1 -2, 44 – 46.
• Law cannot save from sin: Romans 7:23 – 25; Romans 8:3
• Be a slave to God’s law – Romans 7:25;
OUTLINE 2
I. SPIRITUAL FREEDOM/FREE FROM INDWELLING SIN – ROMANS 8: 1 – 11
• Justification by Grace through faith in Christ alone – verse 1-4; Galatians 2:19; Romans 5:21; Ephesians 2:8-9.
• Carnal mind vs Spiritual mind/Sanctification and the work of the Holy Spirit: verse 5-11.
ii. LIFE THROUGH THE SPIRIT – ROMANS 8: 12 – 17
• Put to death the flesh and live: Romans 8:13: Galatians 5:17, 19 – 21;2 Corinthians 5:17.
• Adopted sonship with the father – verse 14 – 15
• Children of God: Romans 8: 16 – 17.
iii. FROM SUFFERING TO GLORY – ROMANS 8: 18 – 30
• Delayed gratifications – sufferings now cannot compare with future glory: Romans 8:18-19.
• Spiritual liberty: Romans 8: 21
• There is a period of waiting with expectation and perseverance– Romans 8:23, 25; Philippians 3:21.
• Intercession of the Holy Spirit according to the will of God: Romans 8: 26 – 27.
• All things work together for good to those who love God; the called according to His purpose: Romans 8: 28.
• Christian calling is a foreordained plan: Romans 8: 29-30; Jeremiah 1:5.
iv. GOD’S EVERLASTING LOVE – ROMANS 8: 31 – 39
• We have confidence in God: Romans 8: 31, 33. If God is for us, who can be against us?
• We are assured of God’s wonderful love: Romans 8:32.
• No condemnation for us as Christ died, is risen and sits at God’s right hand of God interceding for us. Romans 8:34.
• We have spiritual victory through Christ, and nothing shall separate us from the love of Christ. Romans 8: 35- 37.
• Inseparable from the love of God. Romans 8: 38 – 39.
CONCLUSION
God’s plan for humanity is to have a unified church – a faith-based, multi-ethnic family as his covenant children, justified by their faith in Jesus and raised with Him from the dead. Only these members of a new humanity – those born again, who surrender to the lordship of Jesus can truly love him. They are free from the law because they died to sin and have their faith in Jesus who died and paid for their sin. They are the ones that can truly love God and their neighbours. They have been given God’s Spirit and are able to call God their father. They are also co-heirs with Christ and will enjoy blessings kept for God’s children. They are assured of God’s eternal love and are inseparable from the love of God. By contrast, those who seem good to the world but are not saved do not have the Spirit of God in them, so they cannot be God’s. The end for sinners is death, whilst the saved pass on to eternal life and can never perish. John 10:28.

When “it” finishes now, you will be the first to ask “What was he doing with his salaries?”
The Month of April is coming to an end in few days’ time and I am grateful to GOD for life and provision and every other thing He alone chose to bring my way.
Thank You JESUS!
In this month of April I got 55 calls, chats and text messages for financial assistance, ranging from Urgent 2k to N500K.
Yes! I started counted them when they started becoming too much!
Now, I can no longer comment on a status, without getting a text for help! I don’t blame anybody, Nigeria is tough at the moment, but remember we are all in it!
Some friends, I am even afraid to call and check up on them, Why check up on them when you cannot elevate their suffering.
I keep wondering why these people think I have all this money! Even if I am super rich, I still have my own challenges.
I have not built a house for myself and for my family, which is one primary concern of every good man. I am not talking of my dream house, just a roof over my head that will cancel the yoke of house rent in my life forever.
A Wealthy Man Should At Least Have His Own House, No Tenant Is Wealthy! Every Tenant Is Struggling!
Any Tom, Dick and Harry can own a car, but A HOUSE! It takes an ODOGWU to be a LANDLORD or A LANDLADY!
I wouldn’t even mention friends that sells goods I will categorized as luxuries at the moment that gets mad when you exit their whatapp groups or when you tell them in your nonsense voice to stop bombarding your phones with pictures of things you don’t need at the moment, why flood my phones daily with more than 30 pictures and still flood your whatapp status with the same pictures and my phones automatically save all these pictures and videos on my devices, cluttering their internal memories.
We are all trying to survive!
I am cutting off some things in my life to enable survive Nigeria with the Grace of GOD!
I told a friend I have not switched on my generator for 6 years, he couldn’t believe me, he asked me why, I told him, I cannot be fuelling my car and my generator at the same time!
A kilo of chicken is now N6k, which is just one lap of a chicken Oooo! I have cancelled chicken from my menu.
I buy one crate of egg, which is 30 pieces of eggs, we go chop am for 2 weeks.
Still typing ………

To me, though I am the very least of all the saints (God’s consecrated people), this grace (favor, privilege) was granted and graciously entrusted: to proclaim to the Gentiles the unending (boundless, fathomless, incalculable, and exhaustless) riches of Christ [wealth which no human being could have searched out] (Ephesians 3:8 AMPC).
In Hebrews 9:16, the Bible says, “For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.” The word that’s translated “testament” in that verse is the Greek “diathēkē” and it means the last disposition, the last will. The 17th verse says, “For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise, it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.”
It’s saying that as long as the person who made the will is alive, the will has no power; it can’t be effected. But once he’s dead, the will comes into effect. This is telling us about Jesus, the mediator of the New Testament (the new will). So, the question is, what’s in the will that Jesus left for us? What did He assign to us? What did He give us?
Jesus gave us everything that was His; everything, including His life! If a man writes in his will and says, “I’ve given you everything I have,” it’ll be wise to find out what he had. In our theme verse, Paul the Apostle, by the revelation of the Spirit, gives a description of what he was sent to preach about this last disposition, which is the description of the wealth of Jesus that He bequeathed to us—what we have in the will! He called it “…boundless, fathomless, incalculable, and exhaustless riches of Christ [wealth which no human being could have searched out].” How refreshing!
In Colossians 1:12, the Bible says, “Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light.” Thus, the Father has qualified us to be partakers of the riches of Christ.
How do you walk in it? It’s through the Word. As you study and meditate on the Word, not only will you discover your inheritance in Christ, you’ll also begin to relate with and enjoy all that God has made available to you in Christ Jesus. Acts 20:32 says, “And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.” Glory to God!
CONFESSION
I’ve been granted unrestricted access to the unending, boundless, fathomless, incalculable and exhaustless riches of Christ, wealth which no human being could have searched out. Poverty isn’t a part of my life, for I’m an heir of God; therefore, the silver is mine, and the gold is mine; the world belongs to me. Glory to God!

No Compromises! Christianity Is A Call To Righteousness.
Romans 12:2 CEV “Don’t be like the people of this world, but let God change the way you think. Then you will know how to do everything that is good and pleasing to him.”
Some Christians want to see God’s glory in their lives, but they choose to live differently from what the Word says. It can’t work that way! You’ve got to live in accordance with your righteous nature, and the Word of God is the light that you need to do so.
There’re many things that try to distract you from following the Lord and living according to His Word, but the scripture says, “Don’t be conformed to this world!” Though you’re in the world, you’re not of the world; you’re different and you’ve got a new life in Christ now.
Therefore, don’t compromise! Live in God’s Word. Let nothing of the world lure you because Christianity is a call to righteousness. Right living is a product of righteousness, and the reason you can live right is that God has given you righteousness as a gift (Romans 5:17).
You shouldn’t live like those who have never known the Lord. Live by the Word. We’re Word practitioners (James 1:22); we produce fruits of righteousness. How can you comfortably lift your hands in worship and say, “I love you, Lord,” and not keep His Word? The proof of your love for Him is doing His Word. He said, “If you love me, show it by doing what I’ve told you” (John 14:15 MSG). Prove your love by living for Him and doing His Word. Manifest His character, His life, and righteousness, and give full expression to that glorious and righteous nature in you.
Hebrews 12:1-2
1 John 3:10
1 John 5:2-3
Pray
My life is a manifestation of the righteousness of God. I live to manifest the life and character of Christ, and the glory of God is revealed in, and through me today as I live in the Word, through the Word, and by the Word, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
Mark 13

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1
The story of THEWORD is the story of our Lord Jesus. Jesus is the Word of God made flesh (John 1:14). Everything you see was made by the Word; He was the ‘voice’ Adam and Eve heard walking in the garden (Genesis 3:8), and the Wisdom David and Solomon described in the Scriptures. He is God Himself, and He came to the world to save us all. Hallelujah! Amen.
I encourage you to share this story of hope and love with someone today and use the prayer of salvation to get them saved. It’s a story worth sharing!

Order That Devil Out! You’ve Got God-Given Authority Over Devils.
Luke 8:28-29 “… “What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You, do not torment me!” For He had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man….”
When you read this account of the demon-possessed man at Gadara in full detail, you begin to wonder, “Why didn’t the devils come out immediately, rather than the man running to Jesus?” Let me explain: First, you need to understand that every human being has to run his own life; you can’t cast the devil out of someone who doesn’t want the devil to go, except the person places himself under your influence. This mad man at Gadara was possessed by demons for a long time. He was so maniacal that he cut himself with sharp stones, night and day, and anytime he was bound with chains and fetters, he broke them (Luke 8:27-33).
Now, something happened before he ran towards Jesus; when Jesus was still a distance away, the devil in him cried out with a loud voice; that’s what we read in our opening verse; this happened when the Lord first commanded the devil to come out of the man. So, even though the devil didn’t leave the man, he couldn’t stop him from running to Jesus. Until the man in question placed himself under the Master’s influence, by running towards Him, he couldn’t be helped. It’s the same way today.
You’ve got authority over all demons and the cohorts of darkness in the Name of Jesus. If there’s anything you’re uncomfortable with, and you can perceive that a demon is responsible, order him out. You don’t have to scream and shout to do it; there’s no distance in the realm of the spirit.
Command him to stop his operations and manoeuvres; it doesn’t matter where he is in this world, he’ll hear you. However, remember, when it has to do with casting him out of a person, it works best when that one places himself under your influence.
1 Timothy 2:1-2
Mark 16:17-18
PRAY
Thank you, Father, for the ability to cast out devils in the Name of Jesus; I will exercise that dominion today, and frustrate the influence and manipulations of satan in everything that concerns me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
Luke 1:1-25
Deuteronomy 3-4

If there’s someone around you that has a problem with a demon, you can cast it out of him or her in the Name of Jesus.

Look Sharp, And Smart. Always Look Clean, Sharp, And Smart; This Shows You’re An Excellent Child. Let This Show In Everything About You Including How You Dress.
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvellous light 1 Peter 2:9
If you went to another school to represent your school, you’d want to be at your best and give a good impression of your school. In the same way, you’re a representative of God’s Kingdom; therefore, this should reflect in everything about you from the way you walk, talk and dress. Always look clean, sharp, and smart; this shows you’re an excellent child.
Remember, you’ve been called out from the rest of the world to teach them the way to live. Therefore, let this show in everything about you including how you dress.

I affirm that God’s label is on me, for I am His workmanship created in Christ Jesus unto good works. Therefore, as I go about doing good today; my life is filled with God’s goodness and grace. I am led in the path of truth, for the wisdom of God is at work in me. I abhor falsehood, and I am firmly established in God’s Word which makes righteousness manifest in my spirit. Hallelujah. The eyes of my understanding are enlightened with the revelations of God’s Word.
I am in sync with the Spirit, knowing and walking in God’s perfect will for me. Through God’s Spirit, I walk worthy of Him unto all pleasing, fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God’s Word. I am far removed from the arena of assumption, far removed from the corruptive influences of this world. I am seated together with Christ in the place of power; far above all principalities, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world but also in that which is to come.
I live in dominion over sin, sickness and infirmities, and every opposing force, accusation, or hindrance. Hallelujah. I am one with the Father. The Lord has sent His angels before me to minister for me daily! As I affirm the Word, they’re dispatched to establish the words of my mouth and ensure that the words that I speak do not come back to me void. I am never alone because the host of heaven are with me always! Glory to God. Amen.

I receive eternal life into my spirit and according to Romans 10:9, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth
the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from
the dead, thou shalt be saved,” I declare that I am saved; I am born –
again; I am a child of God! I now have Christ dwelling in me, and greater is He

consciousness of my new life in Christ Jesus. Hallelujah! Amen!

THE STUDY OF THE BOOK OF ROMANS, FOCUS ON CHAPTERS 4 AND 6, DEATH THROUGH ADAM, LIFE THROUGH CHRIST
TEXT: ROMANS 5:12-21
INTODUCTION/SUMMARY
The book of Romans is highly praised for clearly articulating key doctrines such as man’s Sinfulness, Justification by faith, Regeneration, Union with Christ, Adoption, and Sanctification. The book of Romans is known for its rich, deep, glorious, and at times unsettling theological assertions and implications. Running through chapters 1 -4, Paul highlights how humanity deliberately walk and continue to walk in disobedience; and that man, Jews and Gentiles alike needed restoration. He further declares the goal of his apostleship which is to bring about the obedience of faith clarifying that believing and obeying must necessarily go together and should never be pitted against each other.
Today, we are continuing the study looking at chapters 5 and 6, to review Paul’s comparison of Adam and Christ Jesus; and what their choices brought to humanity (world), exploring the benefits that comes with being justified righteous in the eyes of God by our faith in Christ Jesus and negating the common misconception about salvation by grace through faith.
CHAPTER 5:
The key objectives of studying chapter 5 is to further understand how God demonstrated His love for mankind, by taking the first step to reconciliation not waiting for man to be strong and perfect but while we were still sinners sent Jesus Christ to die for us.
2. That we are no longer enemies of God because of sin but reconciled forever children of God through Christ.
3. That by one man (Adam) the whole of humanity was dead in sin and by one man (Jesus Christ) humanity is now dead to sin and restored by faith,.
4. That faith in Christ Jesus, not works is the means by which God declares us righteous and justified.
Outlines:
Faith in Christ Jesus and the cross is the way to salvation/Justification; and therefore the foundation of our walk with God. Is salvation/Justification solely by faith?
Benefits Of Justification – Rom 5:1-4
• Peace with God
• We stand in God’s grace
• We have hope for eternal glory
By one man’s disobedience all were made sinners – Gen 3, Rom 5:12-14.
Solidarity in guilt implies solidarity in penalty – Romans 6:23, Ezekiel 18:4
Sin and death principle – Psalms 51:5, Psalms 58:3, Job 14:4
By obedience of One (Christ Jesus) all are made righteous by faith Romans 5:15-19
CHAPTER 6:
The key objective in this chapter is
1. Refute the misconception that grace is latitude for sin – Rom 6:1-2.
2. Paul’s admonition that Christians should not continue in sin, once they have been declared righteous by God.
3. How a Christian sees himself is an important component of the “obedience of faith”
Outline
God’s grace is greater than sin: Rom 6:1-2
Crucified with Christ Rom 6:3-6
Apostle Paul throws more light on what happens when a person comes to faith in Christ on a spiritual level – he said such a person experiences spiritual death to sin, rather than to God; and a rebirth that equals Jesus’ own physical death and resurrection. The person is then raised to a new spiritual life.
Not a slave to sin – Rom 6:4-14
Consider yourself dead to sin – Rom 6:11
Lifestyle of volunteer slavery to righteousness – 6:15-23.

INTRODUCTION: We have been on the theme of Obedience since the beginning of February.
Every of our teachings in the Digging Deep services have led us to the irresistible conclusion that there can be no positive turnaround without obedience.
The word obedience have been defined and described in so many ways by the teachers in the previous lessons. Some of the definitions are that obedience is:
1. Hearing the word of God and acting on it
2. Aligning with God’s will as well as doing what God has asked us to do as well as completely surrendering to His bidding
3. Basing our decisions and our actions on the word of God.
4. Compliance with an order, request or law or submission to another’s authority.
5. Ability to hear what God speaks to our heart as well as what He says in the word and acting on them speedily, whether it looks good or not.
OUTLINE I: “HOW” AND “WHY” OF OBEDIENCE
It is quite easy to point at another person as disobedient. But we need to be introspective and check on our own level of obedience. Most of the time we do not realise that we are living in disobedience.
A). The How.
I. There must be a relationship. You must get to know who God is for you to obey His commands.
1 Samuel 3:9-10, Acts 9:4-5, John 15:10-11, 1 John 2:3-5, Phil 3:7-11
ii. Reading God’s words and meditating on them. Jos 1:7-8, Ps 1:2, Ps 119:7
iii. Trusting in the promises of God contained in His words (spoken and written) James I:22-25
iv. By prayer- Seeking the help of the Holy Spirit. Luke 18:1, I Tess5:17
B). The Why.
i. There are rewards Deut 28:1-14, Isaiah 1:19
ii. There are consequences for Disobedience. Deut 28:15-45, Is 1:20, Gen 3:23-24
iii. Peace of mind and happiness. Job22:21-28
iv. We have God on our side against the enemy. Ex23:22, 2Chro20:22
OUTLINE 2
OBEDIENCE IS KEY TO GREAT VICTORY
A. Obedience is the key to great and unalloyed victory
• Joshua in the battle of Ai. Joshua 8:1-26
• David at Ziklag. 1 Sam30:1-18
• David against the Philistines. 1 Chron14:9-16, 1 Sam 23:2-5
• The widow of the sons of the Prophet had victory against Creditors. 2 Kings 4:1-7
• Isaac had victory against lack and famine. Genesis 26:2-12
• Joshua in the battle against Jericho. Joshua 6:1-4, 20-21
B. Disobedience or Lack of Consultation with God on the other hand brings defeat
➢ Joshua went to battle against Ai without consulting God and when the Israelites were in disobedience to God’s instruction. Josh 7:1-11 (Achan’s disobedience)
➢ Saul and Israel went into battle against the advice of Samuel and lost to the Philistines. I Sam 28:16-18
➢ The sons-in-law of Lot did not follow God’s instruction to depart from Sodom and perished. Gen 19:14
➢ The young Prophet disobeyed God’s instruction not to stay after delivering God’s message. 1 King13:1-24
➢ Samson disobeyed all the laws of the Nazarenes and that of his parents. Judges 14:1-4
➢ Nebuchadnezzar disobeyed the instruction to drop pride and arrogance. Dan 4:27, 30-33
CONCLUSION
It is in our interest to obey the instructions and follow the will of God. All that God created are loved by God and He cares for them as well. But He blesses the obedient. He prefers obedience to sacrifice.
1 Sam 15:22, Proverbs 21:2-3.
Partial Obedience is no obedience. It has to be total and unfeigned. We obtain victory over the flesh and external enemies by our obedience. Victory over the unregenerated flesh and satanic forces are ours if we truly obey divine instructions. 1 Joshua 1:8.

Today I saw another brother! Another friend! Another man! Another husband! Another Son! Another Father sob quietly behind his office building for 20 minutes because he job was threatened! His only source of livelihood was shaken and he felt so helpless but to sob in agony.
This was not the first time I saw a man cry at his place of work, because his job was threatened and this might not be the last. Things that our fathers go through on a daily basis and most of us know nothing about them.
While I watched he cry, I kept asking myself, does this young man have a wife or a knife?
Does he have a companion at home, someone he would share his fears and insecurities when he gets back to the house tonight! Or does he have a knife that will strip him of his last dignity if he ever shows any sign of weakness.
Would he be loved at home or condemned too!
Well! I will never know! But my brother seems to be a fighter!
After sobbing for like 20 minutes, he washed his face, left and bought for himself a plate of beans and bread, plus two chilled sachet water, I would have asked him for one of the water if the circumstances were right.
After he finished eating, he washed his face for the second time, adjusted his tie, made sure his shirt was perfectly tucked in, with his shoulders high and his head raised up, he went back to his office as if nothing happened!
No matter what you are going through in Life, biko eat something my brethren

Concerning the Catechism This catechism is primarily intended for use by parish priests, deacons, and lay catechists, to give an outline for instruction. It is a commentary on the creeds, but is not meant to be a complete statement of belief and practices; rather, it is a point of departure for the teacher, and it is cast in the traditional question and answer form for ease of reference.
The second use of this catechism is to provide a brief summary of the Church’s teaching for an inquiring stranger who picks up a Prayer Book.
It may also be used to form a simple service; since the matter is arranged under headings, it is suitable for selective use, and the leader may introduce prayers and hymns as needed.
Human Nature Q. What are we by nature? A. We are part of God’s creation, made in the image of God.
Q. What does it mean to be created in the image of God? A. It means that we are free to make choices: to love, to create, to reason, and to live in harmony with creation and with God.
Q. Why then do we live apart from God and out of harmony with creation? A. From the beginning, human beings have misused their freedom and made wrong choices.
Q. Why do we not use our freedom as we should? A. Because we rebel against God, and we put ourselves in the place of God.
Q. What help is there for us? A. Our help is in God.
Q. How did God first help us? A. God first helped us by revealing himself and his will, through nature and history, through many seers and saints, and especially the prophets of Israel.
God the Father Q. What do we learn about God as creator from the revelation to Israel? A. We learn that there is one God, the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen.
Q. What does this mean? A. This means that the universe is good, that it is the work of a single loving God who creates, sustains, and directs it.
Q. What does this mean about our place in the universe? A. It means that the world belongs to its creator; and that we are called to enjoy it and to care for it in accordance with God’s purposes.
Q. What does this mean about human life? A. It means that all people are worthy of respect and honor, because all are created in the image of God, and all can respond to the love of God.
Q. How was this revelation handed down to us? A. This revelation was handed down to us through a community created by a covenant with God.
The Old Covenant Q. What is meant by a covenant with God? A. A covenant is a relationship initiated by God, to which a body of people responds in faith.
Q. What is the Old Covenant? A. The Old Covenant is the one given by God to the Hebrew people.
Q. What did God promise them? A. God promised that they would be his people to bring all the nations of the world to him.

Q. What do we learn from these commandments? A. We learn two things: our duty to God, and our duty to our neighbors.
Q. What is our duty to God? A. Our duty is to believe and trust in God;
I To love and obey God and to bring others to know him;
II To put nothing in the place of God;
III To show God respect in thought, word, and deed;
IV And to set aside regular times for worship, prayer, and the study of God’s ways.
Q. What is our duty to our neighbors? A. Our duty to our neighbors is to love them as ourselves, and to do to other people as we wish them to do to us;
V To love, honor, and help our parents and family; to honor those in authority, and to meet their just demands;
VI To show respect for the life God has given us; to work and pray for peace; to bear no malice, prejudice, or hatred in our hearts; and to be kind to all the creatures of God;
VII To use our bodily desires as God intended;
VIII To be honest and fair in our dealings; to seek justice, freedom, and the necessities of life for all people; and to use our talents and possessions as ones who must answer for them to God;
IX To speak the truth, and not to mislead others by our silence;
X To resist temptations to envy, greed, and jealousy; to rejoice in other people’s gifts and graces; and to do our duty for the love of God, who has called us into fellowship with him.
Q. What is the purpose of the Ten Commandments? A. The Ten Commandments were given to define our relationship with God and our neighbors.
Q. Since we do not fully obey them, are they useful at all? A. Since we do not fully obey them, we see more clearly our sin and our need for redemption.

Q. What is the great importance of Jesus’ suffering and death? A. By his obedience, even to suffering and death, Jesus made the offering which we could not make; in him we are freed from the power of sin and reconciled to God.
Q. What is the significance of Jesus’ resurrection? A. By his resurrection, Jesus overcame death and opened for us the way of eternal life.
Q. What do we mean when we say that he descended to the dead? A. We mean that he went to the departed and offered them also the benefits of redemption.
Q. What do we mean when we say that he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father? A. We mean that Jesus took our human nature into heaven where he now reigns with the Father and intercedes for us.

Q. What is Holy Matrimony? A. Holy Matrimony is Christian marriage, in which the woman and man enter into a life-long union, make their vows before God and the Church, and receive the grace and blessing of God to help them fulfill their vows.
Q. What is Reconciliation of a Penitent? A. Reconciliation of a Penitent, or Penance, is the rite in which those who repent of their sins may confess them to God in the presence of a priest, and receive the assurance of pardon and the grace of absolution.
Q. What is Unction of the Sick? A. Unction is the rite of anointing the sick with oil, or the laying on of hands, by which God’s grace is given for the healing of spirit, mind, and body.
Q. Is God’s activity limited to these rites? A. God does not limit himself to these rites; they are patterns of countless ways by which God uses material things to reach out to us.
Q. How are the sacraments related to our Christian hope? A. Sacraments sustain our present hope and anticipate its future fulfillment.
The Christian Hope Q. What is the Christian hope? A. The Christian hope is to live with confidence in newness and fullness of life, and to await the coming of Christ in glory, and the completion of God’s purpose for the world.
Q. What do we mean by the coming of Christ in glory? A. By the coming of Christ in glory, we mean that Christ will come, not in weakness but in power, and will make all things new.
Q. What do we mean by heaven and hell? A. By heaven, we mean eternal life in our enjoyment of God; by hell, we mean eternal death in our rejection of God.
Q. Why do we pray for the dead? A. We pray for them, because we still hold them in our love, and because we trust that in God’s presence those who have chosen to serve him will grow in his love, until they see him as he is.
Q. What do we mean by the last judgment? A. We believe that Christ will come in glory and judge the living and the dead.
Q. What do we mean by the resurrection of the body? A. We mean that God will raise us from death in the fullness of our being, that we may live with Christ in the communion of the saints.
Q. What is the communion of saints? A. The communion of saints is the whole family of God, the living and the dead, those whom we love and those whom we hurt, bound together in Christ by sacrament, prayer, and praise.
Q. What do we mean by everlasting life? A. By everlasting life, we mean a new existence, in which we are united with all the people of God, in the joy of fully knowing and loving God and each other.
Q. What, then, is our assurance as Christians? A. Our assurance as Christians is that nothing, not even death, shall separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Amen.
Thank You Jesus,

“Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.” – (Psalm 105:15)
READ: 2 Kings 1:9-12
When the anointing is handled positively, its effects are similar with handling electricity positively. When electricity is handled properly, it can produce light and heat just like with the microwave, but when handled carelessly, it can destroy. When handled the right way, the anointing can destroy yokes, according to Isaiah 10:27. However, when it is handled wrongly, it can kill. If a fellow messes around with electricity, he or she will get roasted.
In (2 Kings 1:9-12), a king sent some soldiers to arrest Elijah, and the captain met the man of God sitting on a hill. The captain ordered, “Man of God, come down.” Elijah answered, “So you know I’m a man of God, and you are talking to me like that? Roast!” Immediately, fire came down from heaven and burnt the captain and his soldiers. When the king waited, and those 51 soldiers didn’t come back, he sent another 50 soldiers with their captain. When the captain got there, he saw ashes on the floor. Speaking to Elijah, he was even more rude and said, “Man of God, come down quickly.” Again, Elijah roasted them. When people disdain the anointing, it may cost them their lives.
Years ago, when the military was ruling in Nigeria, the then-military head of state wanted to become a democratic ruler. His spiritual advisers told him that what he wanted to do would not succeed because of a man called Adeboye, who was always praying for the country in the Redemption Camp (now Redemption City). I was in the camp when one of my children who was privileged to hear the information came and said, “Daddy, you have to travel quickly, they are coming for you.” Although I am anointed, I was troubled. Fortunately, my wife wasn’t there when the message was delivered. Later that night, I told her that I wanted to go and pray. While I was praying, God spoke. He said, “Don’t worry about him, I have taken care of the situation.” Though it was the month of June, God told me to tell people to wish each other a happy new year during the Holy Ghost service. The Holy Ghost service held on a Friday, and by Sunday, the military dictator had been removed permanently.
Don’t joke with the anointing. One of the biggest mistakes we make as Christians is that we tend to get too familiar with the anointing. When people find an anointed man of God who is humble, there is a tendency to get overfamiliar with him, and this can be dangerous.
KEY POINT:
Never get too familiar with the anointing.

This morning, I will be talking about the “Goodness of God”; I will be talking about the goodness of God in the life of a popular Bible character, David, it’s not going to be about David, it’s going to be about God, I’m just using David as a case study, so let’s bear in mind that it is about the goodness of God, not about David.
Like I said, we are going to put ourselves into part of David’s life, so we’ll go to the story about David and our Bible text is from Psalm 65: 9-13. We were introduced to David in 1st Samuel 16 when God sent Prophet Samuel to the house of Jesse to anoint one of his sons as a replacement for the reigning King Saul, he was brought in from the jungle and lo and behold, he was God’s anointed.
How the devil tried to stop David from the plan of God for his life:
· Sent a huge bear and ferocious lion.
· Goliath came along.
· King Saul turned against David; he pursued David through the nooks and crannies of Israel to take his life but the goodness of God saved David.
· Became a renowned warrior in the land and was leading the army of Israel on war campaigns against bigger, stronger and more formidable nations.
God has many ways to overcome mountains for us, we should not put Him in a box: He defeated Goliath for David in a way; for you, He may take you over the mountain, He may bore a hole through the mountain for you, He may take you round the mountain, that is God for you, He can cause us to fly as an eagle over the mountain and soar above it, God has many ways of dealing with mountains in our lives but just allow Him to be God in His own way.
The external enemies he defeated – the bears, the lions, the Goliath, the King Saul. David became king despite all the travails and then internal enemies took over – he had problem with lust, he committed adultery and he now committed murder to cover it. We all have to contend with internal enemies – some of us it may be anger, some of us, its pride, some of us its lust of this, lust of that, some of us its love of money.
The internal enemies he had to deal with;
Lust
Absalom, one of his children, supported by one of his trusted aides, Ahitophel.
Another son, Adonijah, staged the coup when he saw an opportunity, and he had the support of the strongest general in David’s army and nephew, Joab, 1st Kings 1.
David was able to finish strong and well despite all the vicissitudes of life he faced, he died peacefully and contentedly, the goodness of God kept him, 1st Kings 2: 10 – 12.

Welcome us to this Palm Sunday; as we remember Palm Sunday, the significance of that is to always remember the love of Christ, to meditate upon it and see how we can reciprocate it back to Him and also how we can also exemplify that sacrifice ourselves to our fellow men.
This morning we want to look at one of the factors that make us entitled to the blessings of the Calvary. We are looking at the message titled “Faith in the Time of Trouble”. Mark 4: 35 – 41. Ephesians 2: 8, unless you have faith in what Jesus went to do at Calvary, you cannot appropriate the blessings of His sacrifice; so yes, we are saved by grace, but that grace will not become yours unless you have faith.
Let’s look at the lives of these Disciples of Christ who were with Him and then trouble still came and see what lessons we can learn:
You can be with God and trouble will still come.
Your safest anchor as a believer (in time of trouble) is to ensure that Jesus is with you.
When trouble comes to a believer and you are in the center of God’s will or you’re obeying His instruction, you are going to survive.
When trouble comes for a believer, what determines whether we survive or not is who we run to.
When trouble comes, God uses it as an opportunity to further bring us closer to Himself.
Jesus is never too far away.
Thank You Jesus,

Preacher: Pastor Julius Olalekan (SATGO, Personnel)
Praise the Lord! You know today is your day, praise the Lord! You know the devil has lost battle over you, praise the Lord! You know your season of joy has arrived, praise the Lord!
[Music] [Prayer]
Psalms 100:1-5; “Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations”. Hallelujah!
We are talking about the door of joy; now everything in life has its own door; there is a door to joy; there must be an entrance to somewhere. You want to enter into the season of joy, there is a door and when that door opens, you enter.
In Revelation 3: 7, Jesus Christ said I’m the one that has the key of David, when I open nobody can shut, when I shut no one can open. He said behold, I set before you an open door which no man can ever shut and that door will remain open in the mighty name of the Lord Jesus.
So there are doors but there is this door that is called the ‘door of joy’ and my desire and my prayer for you is that that door will open to you today. I was glad when I heard the choir singing that song and I could say that you are prepared for joy, and that is the glory of God in our lives. There is no substitute for joy, where joy is lacking everything dries up; the Bible says the fig tree, the pomegranate and everything dried up because joy is dried off from the life of men.
When you lose joy you lose everything; when you don’t have it you don’t have anything; what adds value to your life is joy; what makes you look beautiful is joy. If you go to the studio and the photographer wants to snap you, he’d tell you to smile; when you frown he won’t take it and he’d tell you to say ‘cheese’ and then you would fake the smile, you will do everything and he’d smile and say beautiful. Your beauty comes when you smile, but devil does not want you to smile in life, but he has lost the battle; from today, you will continue to smile in the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
This door of joy, what happens when God opens this door for you? Number one that happens when God opens the door for you is that from today, this very Sunday, sorrow shall disappear.
Isaiah 35: 10, the Bible says “And the ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, (what will happen?) and sorrow and sighing shall flee away”.In the name of Jesus, sorrow will flee away from here today.
There are things in our lives that give us sorrow; when we dress up and look elegant, but in different departments of our lives there are things that are looking like Pharaoh; go, it said I’m not going; but God is saying today, the Egyptians that followed you here you will never see them anymore in the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ. It says you will return, sorrow will flee away; sighing will flee away in the mighty name of the Lord.
You look at the example of Hannah in the scriptures; the Bible says she was a woman of sorrow because they were provoking her every day. There was another woman that was just mocking her, just provoking her because she didn’t have a child, but what happened eventually? God fought for her. God will fight for you.
The Bible says in 1st Samuel 1: 10; one particular day she entered into the temple, she prayed at Shiloh and the word came and said your prayers have been answered; and the Bible says she left and her countenance was no more sad. From that day she never know sorrow again; from that particular day sorrow disappeared from her life, meaning what? If it has happened before, it can happen again.
It can happen to anybody, there are people who have gone through it and that is why I’m praying today, you will never know it, you will never ever know it.
Somebody was coming to where we were having a meeting, praying, (weekly prayer meeting), and when she was coming, she saw a woman sitting down at the center of the road weeping and crying and this woman went to her, ‘woman, you are close to the road, won’t you be afraid of accidents’? She said which accidents? Anyone that wants to kill me should kill me, when I didn’t die what am I living for? What is the problem? And then the woman explained to her that she got married without any child and then her husband and the family came to her just last night (and that was in October), they told her this year is the end, by January 1st, they must not meet her in the house, she should begin to pack her load and know where she is going.
They held the meeting, the husband was there and they left; after they had left, she turned to her husband and said didn’t you hear what your parents said? He said yes, they have spoken well. Ha, is that what you would say?
She lost anything called joy, she was no more herself, she just went out not knowing where she was going, and then she just sat down in the middle of the road, and the other one said I’m going to church, I’m going to pray and God that answers prayer, His name is Jesus, you can follow me and she followed her. They came to the meeting, did the prayers; came for the second one, did the prayers, and then these people came first of January and they told her what are you still doing in this house? We have asked you to pack, move now; and she asked them what the agreement was; you gave me ultimatum till January, have you asked for the results? They asked what the result is, and she went in and brought the result that showed that she was two months pregnant. I’m not telling story; the day she was sharing the testimony, she was shedding tears of joy.
Listen to me brethren; if there is any tear you will still shed, it will be tears of joy. A day is coming, you will stand here, you will sing a song, ‘I never knew you will answer me this way…’ and that day will come very very soon in the mighty name of the Lord Jesus.
For that fellow saying amen, I said from today, sorrow disappears from your house, disappears from your home, disappears from your career, and disappears from every area of your life.
You just mentioned FUTA and I remember the case in FUTA when we were there, there was a boy that gained an admission and got into FUTA and the father celebrated him in Lagos, (they were living in Lagos); they celebrated him, he called the whole house and everyone, they even killed a goat to say that he was going to the university.
On getting there, the first year he was on probation, and the second year, if he got the second one, he would be advised to withdraw; when he got that, he had concluded that he was on his way home early in the morning full of sorrow, he left for the fish pond to go and commit suicide, and then one of my friends was on his way to the field to go and pray early in the morning and saw someone going to the fish pond early in the morning when it was still dark; the Holy Spirit told him follow him and he followed him, and he got him and said brother, where are you going? He said what is your problem? He said there is there is a problem, where are you going? Holy Spirit said I should follow you and then he broke down in tears and told him they celebrated me to come here, what will it be for me to go back withdrawn from school, its better I die than to go and face such a shame, and the brother said don’t worry yourself, there is a solution.
He brought him to the fellowship in the evening, gave his life to Jesus, and started serving God; by the time the same boy graduated, they gave him an award during the convocation as the best improving student from probation to 2.1.
I’m praying for someone here, you will succeed, you will never know failure again in the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ. The God that we serve is a God of joy, He gives joy; go to the scripture, there was nowhere He got to and there was sorrow, and He left there and He left sorrow there, nowhere, check the scriptures. He’s against sorrow, and when I’m talking about sorrow, we are even talking about the foundation of sorrow which happens to be sickness, affliction, failure, shame, trouble, because there is somewhere that this sorrow is coming from.
Somebody is of a marriageable age, she hasn’t gotten husband; you don’t have children, you don’t have job, the parents are saying when will you begin to take care of us, you are still writing letter and say please send me money. The Bible says some people will wake up in the morning and sleep late in the night (like people in Lagos), and at the end of the month they will eat the bread of sorrow, nothing to show for it, but God is telling someone here, you will never labor in vain.
Because you are in this service, every step you take from today will yield glorious results in the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
So when God opens the door of joy, sorrow will flee. Number two; the door of sorrow will be permanently shut, it will never open again in the mighty name of Jesus.
In 1st Chronicles 4: 9& 10, there was a man that is called Jabez; the Bible says this man was called sorrow by name, he was sorrow in person, personified, but the Bible says this man prayed and cried unto the Lord and the Lord changed his sorrow, and God is about to do something here today.
Look at verse 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 me! (What happened?) And God granted him that which he requested”.The last thing he asked for was that Lord, take away this sorrow but then don’t let me ever know it again, shut the door permanently, don’t let me ever see evil – anything called evil; poverty is evil, shame is evil, sickness is evil, affliction is evil, they are not your portion. After today that you will pray here, you will never see them anymore; God Himself will say to you here in the mighty name of Jesus.
Look at Zephaniah 3: 15, the Bible says “The Lord hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the Lord, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more”. How? You will never see it anymore; you will never see evil anymore; you will never see failure anymore; you will never see reproach anymore; you will never see trouble anymore. If it’s waiting for you, before you get there, fire will clear it in the mighty name of God, because God is always by His own, He’s ever faithful and you will never know evil again.
Number three, what will happen? Happenings of joy will begin in your house, in your life, marriage will start, wedding upon wedding, children dedication, house dedication, promotions, elevation, celebration, testimonies, peace all around, all you need is for Him to open this door unto you, let Him open this door of joy and one after the other, things will begin to happen.
Like Hannah that I told you, as soon as the almighty God opened the door of joy, the Bible says she didn’t have a child, she had Samuel; God opened another door she had another one; opened another one, had another one; opened another one, had another one; and she had another five; from joy to joy to joy to joy. I’m praying for someone here today again, the door of joy that God will open to you will be permanent; things of joy will begin to happen and you will never know sorrow again, and God can do it in such a way that you will look around and say where is this sorrow that I’ve been carrying for years that looks as if it can never go.
There was a man in Lagos here when I was in Lagos, he came to a service and he had an encounter, but the story was a very bad one; he was a very big man, working, well known in Nigeria, and suddenly this problem came and they froze his account, took everything that he had – his house, his cars, everything he ever had was taken away from him. He could not feed his family again, a woman and four children; the man ran to Ghana thinking that things would be better, he got to Ghana, spent five years in Ghana and nothing worked; he came back home to locate the family, getting to where they rented there was nobody there and they said your wife is no more here, so he started searching and discovered that the wife had gone to Abuja to meet with her parents with the children.
So he decided to go to Abuja to go and see them, he went there, as soon as the father-in-law sighted him, he told him if you don’t want to die, don’t enter this house; and because he didn’t want to die, he didn’t enter, he ran back to Lagos, he was in depression, stayed in a friend’s house and then he came for a service like this and he had an encounter with God.
You see, this God answers prayers; when you go to church brethren, He answers prayers. My house shall be called the house of prayer; when I ask you to pray today please pray, this God is real, He’s alive, He’s on your side, you don’t have any reason to doubt Him.
He came for the first time, he prayed; the following week he received a call that they had been looking for him at Abuja that they have discovered that the case five years ago was false and that now, they have reversed everything – his house has been returned, his account has been released, his money has been released, everything they took from him was returned within one week, within seven days, that God is still alive.
He went to Abuja, got everything back and everything, you know what he did? He went into a car stand, bought a brand new car; went to boutique, bought good clothes, dressed well and got sunshades, good shoes and everything. I entered into the car, tear rubber, and went again into the same house of his father-in-law; he parked outside, it was a tinted glass and they all came out and said who is this, where is he coming from?
Everybody came out and said which visitor is visiting us; then he brought out the first leg, they were waiting for him to show his face; the first leg that he brought out, his shoe was shining, you could look at yourself and they were still waiting for who the person was; he brought out the other hand with the wristwatch, and then came out with the glasses, removed the glasses and the father-in-law said my son, my son, I know that one day God will do it, I know, I just know because you carry destiny.
They took him in and then he took his wife and went back again.
I’m praying for someone here, there will be a turnaround, total turn around in the mighty name of the Lord Jesus.
What do you do? Before we pray, because this door must open today and it will open now. The first thing is have faith in God, do what Hannah did. She had faith in God that was why she went to Shiloh, she believed God would answer her prayers. Be it unto you according to your faith.
Jesus Christ said if I come back will I find faith on earth? Not everybody that goes to church has faith; some people just feel that look, I must go there, but look brethren, have faith in God. Mark 11: 22, have faith in God for with Him nothing is impossible; demonstrate your faith, let your faith come alive, Hallelujah! God will honor that faith today in the mighty name of Jesus.
Number two, do what Hannah did, ignore your mockers, don’t concentrate on them, they are not your problems, when God changes your situation they will change. Some of us concentrate on them; he said this he said this; they abused me, they insulted me, they reproached me, they did this one and you are fighting them, they are not the problem, when God settles you, by force they will come and celebrate, praise the Lord!
Imagine the day Samuel was born and Hannah wore her cloth and her headgear was a very big one and then people gathered together for naming and she was going around, you know the way women do at parties, going around and thanking everybody for coming and Peninah was the one that was carrying plates and washing plates with her children. I’m praying for you today, on the day of your joy your enemies will be in shame in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. He has done it before, He will do it again. Ignore them.
Isaiah 45: 23, it says “I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear”. The wordhas gone out, it will not return in the mighty name of Jesus.
Number three, use the key of prayers. There’s what they call ‘operation push’, pray until something happen; don’t stop praying, there is no option to your joy, your joy must be full.
In John 16: 24, it says Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.He gives fullness of joy, that is the interest of the Lord – pray until something happens, and it will happen today in the mighty name of Jesus.
Number four; be planted in the house of the Lord. Psalms 92: 13, “Those that be planted in the house of God…” not people that are planted online, praise God! I celebrate the people online but be planted in the house of God, there is no substitute to the house of God, it doesn’t happen; it’s in Christianity that we are beginning to migrate to online, mosque don’t go online, the unbelievers don’t go online.
We were coming one day on a Friday, even on the express road (in Bauchi), they were all along the road; they would block the road for you on Friday, they don’t go online. You go to churches, cathedrals will be empty because some people decide to go online; He said those that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish, not those who are planted online, you don’t belong to anybody. Online people are prostitutes, before they watch this one they have watched another one, they will watch this and watch that one and watch this one and then they will switch to this and say oh choir is the one singing, let me hear this one; and then they’ll go to this one. Prostitutes, they will be moving, different fathers, and daddy GO said that when you have many fathers you must be a bastard; ajumobi, they gather together to give birth; this one is your father, this one is your father, you go to all the ministries, everywhere, you just sit down and be going all around and then towards the end of the service you click to this service and say I have attended, you have not attended.
They that are planted in the house of the Lord… how do you think that this same God is a rewarder of them that diligently… Some people were here 6am, you lie down on the bed and think the same God will reward you the same way, it cannot happen and it can never happen. He’s a God that is just, be planted in the house of God.
He said ‘My house’, which means He has a house. There are things that don’t happen until you get to Zion; upon Mount Zion there shall be deliverance and holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
Hannah had prayed for life until she entered into the temple and prayed, and the man of God made the prophecy, just one prophecy brought her out of sorrow and took her to an everlasting joy. Be planted in the house of the Lord, don’t be deceived by social media, that is not the house of the Lord, you know the house of the Lord, be there.
The Bible says when you are there you will flourish and the word of God is ever settled, may I pray for every one of you here, you will flourish and everyone online who have repented will flourish also; if you have not, then God will touch your hearts, praise the Lord!
And then the last thing is that keep sowing joy, meaning what, the best gift you can give to any man is joy and what is that gift? Jesus Christ. Anywhere you go talk about Jesus, because when you give anybody Jesus you are giving the fellow fullness of joy, because by the name of Jesus he will be able to assess joy himself.
Members of your families that have not known God, deliberately and intentionally preach to them, talk to them, you may not have money, you may not have to give them anything, give them joy, give them Jesus. Those people that you are sending money to every time and they are not born again, you are wasting your resources, give them Jesus, let them be saved, that’s the best gift you can give to them.
If you have built house for them, you have done this for them and they don’t have Jesus, you have lost them, there is no joy over them. The Bible says there is joy in heaven over one soul that repents and turns to the Lord; when you go out, when you go anywhere, give people joy, give them Jesus, take flyers, invite people, don’t come to church alone, make God happy, let the heaven rejoice because of what you have done.
Those people in your places of work, they are your colleagues, they need Jesus, bring them here; if you don’t know how to preach to them, you invite them, they will encounter the God that you serve here, He will settle them; be an evangelist for the Lord in your spheres of influence, don’t just talk about money and politics, talk about Jesus and you will see the heaven responding to you in a very serious manner.
Look at Hannah, she said give me a child and I will make him to be Your priest; she touched the heart of God; when you do the work of God, you touch the heart of God and He can do anything for you, praise the Lord! That will happen, anybody you talk to will receive the Lord; from today, you will be joy givers.
Before we pray, there is one door that even nobody can open, and it will surprise you that even Jesus Christ cannot open it, the only person that can open it is you and until that door is opened, Jesus cannot open any other door for you, it is very clear.
Let’s look at Revelation 3: 20, it says “Behold, I stand at the door (of your heart), and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me”. I will come in and celebration starts; I will come in and jubilation starts; I will come in and happiness begins. He said but I can’t open, I can only knock, that is where it is amazing; salvation can never be by force, there must be a day you make up your mind and say Jesus come into my heart, be my Lord and be my Savior, that day that you open your door and He comes in, every other door of joy will begin to open unto you, the grace to do that may God give it to you this morning.
Shall we bow down our heads in prayers; before we go and pray for this God to open this door for us today, He’s knocking at the door of your heart now, you want to open that door, you want to see Jesus come into my heart so that every other door will begin to open, you want Him to come into your life you want Him to rule in your life, you want Him to be your Lord, you want Him to be your Savior, you want Him to be everything to you either here or online, you have made up your mind, put your left hand on your chest and lift up your right hand for Jesus still coming to your life, for Him to enter, I want to pray with you; just open that door, you are the only one that has the authority to open that door, not even God can force you to do it but until you do it, no other door can open by the authority of heaven.
[Altar call]
[Prayer]
[Music]
You are going to pray as if you have never prayed before, whatever is called the foundation of sorrow, the One who is called the Consuming Fire will visit it by fire in the mighty name of Jesus. It can be sickness, it can be barrenness, it can be shame, it can be lack, it can be failure, whatever, before you finish this prayer it shall flee away in the mighty name of the Lord.
Raise your voice violently, say Father, arise in Your power as the consuming fire, every foundation of sorrow in my life, in my family, my Father my Father, visit it with Your fire now.
[Prayer]
Visit every foundation of sorrow; be it sickness, be it affliction, be it disease, be it failure, be it trouble, be it retrogression, visit it with Your fire.
Visit the foundation, the foundation of sorrow; everything called sickness, everything called affliction, everything called barrenness, everything called loneliness, everything called delay, anything that is generating sorrow, Lord God of heaven, visit with Your power.
Brethren pray a little more, you have the power to set yourself free; life and death are in the power of tongue, visit the foundation, whatever does not allow your joy to be full, Father visit every foundation. Thank You Father, thank You Lord in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.
I don’t know the fellow here but listen to me, I’m declaring now to you and hear it well, there’s a good news coming your way, be expectant, check out for it; there’s a good news coming that will cause you to jump for joy.
I don’t know the fellow here also, that stubborn source of shame has just been converted to source of glory and testimony. Thank you my Father; what a great God I serve, we celebrate You Lord.
You are going to pray this one prayer before I pray for you and please pray with all your strength; you can open the door with keys, you can force the door open, you can scatter but all it matters is that your door must open now; the door of joy must open now.
Pray violently and say Father in the mighty name of Jesus, I declare and I command every door leading to my joy, what are you waiting for, open now!
I command you to open!!! Open now in the name of Jesus, thank You precious Father, in Jesus name we have prayed.
Stretch forth your hand as if you are receiving something, can you ask for three things that’s very specifically, just mention them before I pray for you and you will return with testimonies. Go ahead and just ask, heaven is delivering them into your hands, today is a day you’ll collect your blessings.
What is it that must happen to your business for your joy to be full? What is it that must happen in your family for your joy to be full? What is it that must happen in your life for your joy to be full? What is it that must happen to your loved ones, for your children, for your joy to be full? This hour, pray the way Hannah prayed; her lips were moving but nobody understood what she was saying, she was pouring out her heart but God listened to her; pour them out, mention them in His ears, He that created ear, shall He not hear?
He said before they call I will answer, while they are yet speaking I will hear; this is God who answers before He hears; thank You Father, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.
Father in the mighty name of Jesus, I stand with the authority of heaven, pray for all these Your children wherever you are and you are connected to this meeting; every one of you, the door of sorrow is permanently shut in the mighty name of Jesus.
I command the fire of God to visit every foundation of sorrow and burn them in the mighty name of Jesus. From now on, the door of joy is open to you; the door of joy is open to your family; the door of joy is open to your home. As you are saying that amen, shame disappears; as you are saying that amen, delay comes to an end; as you are saying that amen, failure is turned to success; as you are saying that amen, breakthrough comes your way; as you are saying that amen, very soon you will shed tears of joy; whatever you have requested from the Lord in this house today, receive in abundance in the mighty way receiving abundance in the mighty name of Jesus!!! It is done, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.
Today’s lesson brings to an end our study of the book of Philippians. You would recall that in chapter 1, we learnt that there is joy in living for Christ [Phil 1:12]. Then we talked about the right attitude in serving Christ in unity; without complaints, or unnecessary arguments [Phil 2:14]. In chapter 3, we went on to discuss the joy in knowing Christ. We were told that our focus should be the finishing line and that means reigning with Christ in eternity [Phil 3:13-14].
For today, we will concern ourselves with the joy in resting in Christ Jesus. To accomplish this, there is need to show contentment, always [Phil 4:11]; our circumstance notwithstanding. There are three [3] outlines as detailed below.
OUTLINE 1: FINDING REST BY RESOLVING CONFLICT [Phil 4:2-5]
• Euodias and Syntyche [both women] had a dispute/conflict. Apostle Paul urged both to
settle their disagreement because they are of the same mind with God. Phil 4:2, Phil 2:2.
• In Phil 4:3, Paul called for the intervention of the brethren in resolving the dispute. He
acknowledged that these women worked with him in spreading the good news. He
acknowledged that spreading the gospel opens the door for your name to be written in the
Book of Life. Rev 20:15.
• In Phil 4:4, Paul urged us to be full of joy no matter the circumstance. Recall that he wrote
this letter to the Philippians in captivity; yet he was full of joy knowing that the work of
God was progressing. The beauty of being filled with joy always is that, the possibility of
conflicts would be obliterated; since there will be no space in your soul for other vices
such as found in Gal 5:19-21. 1 Corinthians 6:20 .
• In Phil 4:5, he talks about moderation or gentleness. Doing things in a manner that will not
distract others from focusing on God. This is a pointer to Jesus Christ in the way He
humbled Himself [Phil 2:8]. We should live with the assurance that He will soon return to
take us home. Gal 5:22-23.
OUTLINE 2: FINDING REST THROUGH PREVAILING PRAYER [Phil 4:6-7]
• In verse 6, the Bible says we should be anxious for nothing. It is a command and not an
option. Matthew 6:26-28 serves as a guide. Rather in EVERYTHING, we should through
[prevailing] prayers present to God. Do not take anything for granted. Our attitude
should be to pray about everything and be thankful for anything. Remember, Jesus Christ
always gave thanks. John 11:41, Luke 22:19.
• For verse 7, three [3] things stand out: the peace of God, surpasses all understanding
and keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Peace is indeed a gift from God. Surpasses all understanding brings to the fore our
limitations in comprehending the ways of God [Isaiah 55:8] and keeping our hearts
speaks to strengthening our faith in Jesus Christ [Hebrews 11:6].
OUTLINE 3: FINDING REST BY RENEWING YOUR MIND [Phil 4:8-9]
• Verse 8 tells us the right place to put our minds. Romans 12:2 and 2 Corinthians 10:5 lends
credence to where our minds should dwell. No doubt, these virtues in Phil 4:8 are
embedded in the fruit of the spirit in Gal 5:22-23.
• Phil 4:9. What is the essence of teaching or learning or receiving or seeing if we are not
able to put same into practice? Let us be followers of Christ just as Apostle Paul followed
Him. 1 Corinthians 4:17, Psalm 25:4
CONCLUSION
If we follow and work according to the teachings in the book of Philippians, the result
will be as captured in Phil 4:13. Therefore, what do we need to excel in this work? We
have the assurance that God will supply all you need according to His riches in glory by
Christ Jesus [Phil 4:19].
Thank You Jesus,

The theme for this year’s evangelism weekend is Repositioned for Evangelism and our text is taken from Acts 8: 5 – 8. Our main responsibility as a child of God is to go and win souls. 2nd Corinthians 5: 19.
Some of the reasons why we must win souls:
God loves the world, John 3: 16
Wickedness is on the increase, Isaiah 60: 2
There is no repentance in hell, there is no repentance after the last breath,
Time is short, John 15: 16.
Swimming against the tide, our Bible text is Genesis 41: 14 – 34. We all know what swimming is; tide is a current in the sea that is caused by the regular and continuous movement of the sea waves. It goes up and down, then you say you have a tide in the sea. To swim against the tide therefore could be another way of saying to not follow everyone else.
So bringing it to our message, to swim against the tide comes in two ways: it may mean what every other person is doing, you don’t want to do because it is not necessarily the right way everybody else is going; secondly, it could be that there are difficult times, but to survive, you need to come against the tide so that the difficult times does not wash you away and that’s more like what we are going to talk about this morning.
Some few lessons to take from it:
The economies of the world are cyclical, Genesis 26: 1.
No famine, no economic disaster will last forever, 2nd Kings 7.
People respond to famine, to difficult times, to economic challenges differently, let’s keep getting at doing something, Genesis 26.
The impact of famine on people differ, Genesis 26.
It does not matter how bad any economy is, God has a solution.
What are the things that we are supposed to do?
Make effort to improve your lot or make effort to survive this situation.
Make the best use of the time that we have.
Try to expand your sources of income.
We must maintain good discipline.
Avoid taking nick-check decisions.
Don’t be wasteful, Genesis 41: 53 – 54.
Delay gratification.
Avoid borrowing where it is not necessary.
Protect what you have.
Keep your ears to the ground.
Seek professional advice.
Stay out of trouble.
Obey the rules of the land.
Help those who are in need.
Trust God for divine direction.
Thank You Jesus,

Thank You Very Much For Your Support,

In our study of Ephesians 2: 13 -22 last week, we learnt that even though the natural man is dead in his sins and thus separated from Christ, there are two ‘buts’ – the mercy of God and the blood of Jesus Christ, with which we can now have access to God. We are brought near by the blood of Christ, having become born again, received eternal life and are saved by His Grace.
Today, we are looking closely at the church – what is the church and the core truths of a church going by scriptures.
From our text, seven different truths are revealed:
• The mystery of the church
• The meaning of the church
• The membership of the church
• The mission of the church
• The Ministers of the church
• The marks of the church
• The might of the church.
1. The Mystery of the church: Ephesians 3: 3, 6, 9; 1 Corinthians 2: 7 -12; Romans 10:12-13; 1
Corinthians 15:51; Ephesians 3: 3-4, Ephesians 6:19; 1Timothy 3:16. Church is not a mystery.
The mystery is that through the gospel, Gentiles and Jews are joint heirs and sharers in the promise of Jesus Christ.
2. Church Defined (the meaning of the church): Ephesians 3: 6, 10.
a. Body of Christ: Ephesians 3: 6; Ephesians 4:12; John 3:16; Ephesians 5:25
b. Jesus Christ is the head of the church: Ephesians 4: 15; Colossians 1:18
3. Church Membership: Ephesians 3: 6
a. The church comprises both believing Jews and Gentiles. Acts 15:13-14
b. Membership of the church consists only of born-again children of God who are washed in the precious blood of Jesus Christ.
c. Membership is formed when both Jews and Gentiles preach the gospel, people are convicted of sin by the Holy Spirit and become part of the body of Christ.1 Corinthians 12:13
4. The Purpose of the church (the mission of the church): Ephesians 3: 8, 10.
a. To preach the gospel through programs, evangelism etc: Ephesians 3:8; Matthew 28:19; 2 Timothy 1: 8
b. For God’s manifold wisdom to be made known to the rulers and authorities in heavenly places (angelic hosts, good and bad) through the church, so they (the rulers and powers) may understand God’s eternal plan for the redemption of mankind (through the salvation of Jew and Gentile in one body which is a hidden mystery to them): Ephesians 3:10
5. The Ministers of the church: Ephesians 3: 7; Ephesians 4:11. All true members of the church are ministers of the church and should participate in the sharing of the gospel.
6. The Characteristics of the church (the marks of the church): The bible speaks of some qualities that distinguish men and women who make up the church:
a. BOND SLAVES OF JESUS – Ephesians 3:1, 2Timothy 1:8. Those who are prisoners of Christ Jesus.
b. FELLOWSHIP: Jews and Gentiles who are united in one body and are partakers of the promise of in Christ Jesus through the gospel – Ephesians 3:6.
c. THE HUMBLE: Ephesians 3:8; James 4:6.
d. TESTIFIERS: Ephesians 3: 8.
e. ACCEPTED: Ephesians 3: 11-12. We are accepted by God and can approach Him with freedom and confidence through our faith in Jesus Christ.
7. The Might of the church (the power of the church): Ephesians 3: 7; Matthew 16:18; 1
Corinthians 3:11. The church is so mighty in power because Jesus Christ is the Founder and builder. Hence, neither death nor evil will permanently destroy it.
CONCLUSION
The church is the body of Christ. The head of the church is Jesus Christ. The body of the church is made up of both believing Jews and Gentiles. True members of the church have been empowered by grace to preach the gospel. Everything we do in church should have behind it the underlying passion to see sinners saved and the saved grow up to the full measure of Christ.
Ephesians 4:12 states that the ministry gifts were given to equip people for service and build up the body of Christ.
If you are here today, physically, or virtually, and are yet to surrender your life to Jesus Christ, today offers another opportunity for you to do so. Tomorrow may be too late.
Thank You Jesus,

LET US PRAY
2 Kings 2:19 & 22
And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Behold, I pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord seeth: but the water is naught, and the ground barren.
So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spake.
This year, I will open my mouth and tell God exactly how things are with me. I have discovered from experience that many people have become so good at pretending that all is well when all is not, even before God, the One who knows everything.
Ensure that you do not pretend or form before God. Tell Him exactly where the shoe hurts. Ask for His help more than ever before and He will surely answer you (Matthew 21:22).
ACT NOW:
Stop suffering in silence, tell God all your needs this year.
Have A Wonderful Day

INTRODUCTION: We rounded up the study of the book of Galatians last Tuesday. Today, we are starting a new series with the theme: DIVINE GUIDANCE, and it will run till the end of the month.
It is still early in the year; and the sure way to start is to seek divine guidance. Psalm 25:12 says: What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall He teach in the way that he shall choose. Therefore, divine guidance helps us to fulfil destiny. In this year 2024, we shall all fulfil destiny in Jesus name,
Amen!
OUTLINE A: AVENUES FOR DIVINE GUIDANCE
There are several ways through which God can guide those that put their trust in Him.
1. Through the Word of God.
The Lord spoke clearly to Moses, Aaron, Miriam, Samuel, etc. Aside the word of mouth; the Bible represents the Word of God. Numbers 12:4-5, 1 Sam 3:21, Matthew 3:17 & Hebrews 4:12.
2. Through the witness of the Spirit.
The Spirit witnessed through prophet Agabus about Paul’s arrest in Jerusalem. The witness can also be through God’s peace of mind that passes all understanding. Acts 21:10-11, 30-31, Phil 4:6-7 &
Romans 8:14.
3. Through the voice of the Spirit.
The hearing is usually inward and inaudible to others. It can also be in the form of a ‘still small voice’, outward in case of Samuel or it can come in the midst of godly thought. Isaiah 30:21, 1 Kgs 19:12, 1 Sam 3:3-5, Acts 9:3-5 & Acts 10:19.
4. Through Revelations.
These include dreams, visions, trances. Let’s be mindful that dreams can come via your thoughts or even from the devil. Joel 2:28, Eccl 5:3, Jeremiah 23:32, Job 33:14-17, Dan 2:19 & Acts 10:10-11.
5. Through ordained situations/circumstances.
God can use a scenario/situation to minister/reveal things to you. Jeremiah 18:1 6. Daddy GO’s testimony.
6. Through prophetic utterances and confirmations.
We should NOT live at the mercy of prophecy. Hosea 12:10, Jeremiah 7:25 & 1 John 4:1.
7. Through diverse means as deemed fit by God.
Typical is the case of Jonah and to the apostles. Jonah 1:7 & Acts 1:23-26.
OUTLINE B: RECOGNISING DIVINE GUIDANCE
This is very important because you want to be sure that it is from God. The Holy Spirit plays the dual role of a guide and counsellor.
1. Get familiar with the Word of God. His Word is the truth and ultimate source of wisdom on how we should live. Follow the instructions, therefrom. 2 Timothy 3:16.
2. Test your inclinations against the Word. The Holy Spirit will never push us to do anything contrary to God’s Word. If such conflicts with the Word; ignore it. 1 Corinthians 14:33.
3. Pray without ceasing. This keeps us in constant touch with the Spirit of Truth and enables us to follow His leading. 1 Thess 5:17 & Romans 8:26-27.
CONCLUSION
We have identified some of the avenues divine guidance can manifest in our lives. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Comfort. Let us allow Him to guide us for the rest of our lives and we shall never be lost in the wilderness of life.

Hallelujah! Day after day, the Lord will hold us with His hands and lead us to do all that we need to do in the name of Jesus; we will live in the righteousness of God; we’ll experience heaven here on earth and all things shall be possible for us in the mighty name of Jesus.
Thank you choir, the choir has preached the message for today, I think if at this point we just share the grace and go home, we will not have been shortchanged; glory be to God, thank You Jesus.
I’m imagining a Sunday that we’ll come here and it will be all praise, I’m just imagining that Sunday. Praise God!
Our God almighty, the God with whom nothing is impossible; honor and adoration oh Lord we give to You; we thank You Lord because we know You are already here with us; we thank You for all that You are about to do, that You have done already and You will continue to do in us and through us; Father Lord we thank You for Your word that You are about to send to us, Lord please give us understanding; give us revelation in the words and let there be performance of the word in the name of Jesus.
Every impossibilities, Father Lord bring an end to them in the mighty name of Jesus. Glorify Your name in us and through us now and forevermore in Jesus wonderful name we prayed.
Praise the Lord! Praise our living Jesus! Please let’s sit down majestically before our Father in heaven. The same message we heard in the morning, I’ll try to preach this session but indeed all things are possible. How many things are possible? All things are possible.
I would like to give thanks to God for the gift of life because only the living can stand and preach, only the living can expect things, can expect possibilities, praise God! And I appreciate the pastor in charge of province, our father in the Lord for this privilege also for me to stand here.
I welcome you all to church this morning and ask that whatsoever has brought you here this day, the Lord Almighty will hear the yearnings of your hearts in the mighty name of Jesus, because the Bible tells us that they came unto him, they looked up to him, their faces were radiant and they were not put to shame, Psalms 34: 5; and also in Proverbs 23: 18, it says surely there is an end; there is an end to impossibilities; there is an end to failure; there is an end to stagnation and the expectation of the righteous will not be cut off in the mighty name of Jesus.
Last week Monday we had a break from prayer chain because of the Easter, but we are back now, by the grace of God we’ll have prayer chain tomorrow and the theme of the prayer chain for tomorrow is “Go forward”, Exodus 14: 10- 15.
Our theme for this month of April is Divine Possibilities, Luke 1:37. But before we go into today’s message, I’d like to appreciate on behalf of our PICP every one of us who came yesterday whether physically or joined online to attend the Economic Summit that we had yesterday, or who supported in one way or the other; prayers, telling people about it, sharing the tracts, taking the tracts, in whatever way or putting money, giving water, he said I should say thank you to all of you, it was a marvelous program, it was a great success, praise the Lord!
Luke 1: 37, “For with God nothing shall be impossible”. So from this text and our theme for this month, I take my topic for today, “Unlimited Possibilities”, praise the Lord!
So we go into it quickly and I make some definitions; when we talk about possibility, to relate with the term possibility, I tried to use some synonyms for it – chance, likelihood, the odds or probability that something may happen or will be true. For example, what is the possibility that Nigeria will be great again? What is the possibility that it will rain in the course of this week? What is the possibility that you’ll be here next week Sunday? You know, likelihood, what is the chance? What are the odds?
Okay, but another way to look at possibility is when you don’t look at it in terms of likelihood but in terms of variety of options available. For example, the example I gave in the morning; I stand there and I say I want to go to the gate of Lekki, what are the options available to me from here to get to the gate? Should I walk? Take a bike? A bus? Take my car? Or fly? Options, praise God!
So in the context of this passage, ‘for with God all things are possible’, I believe that the Bible is not talking to us on possibility in terms of likelihood, and I will explain that soon, the Bible is talking to us on possibilities in terms of options available. Likelihood is for us men; when you just want to stay safe, you don’t want to say yes or no and then you stand on the fence, somewhere in between.
For God, there is only certainty; so for the mathematicians here, if we say what is the possibility that there will be day tomorrow? What’s the likelihood that there will be day tomorrow? The statisticians or mathematicians will say one out of two, because in any day you can have a day or a night, so the likelihood of a day is one out of two, that’s .5, so usually when humans are talking, it’s somewhere between zero and one likelihood, but when God is talking, it’s either zero or one.
So let’s see God’s perspective to that same question, Genesis 8: 22, “While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest time, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease”. So it’s saying if tomorrow comes, what is the likelihood that there will be day? One, it’s certain, you shall not cease; so with God is either one or zero, when will it be zero? If there is no tomorrow then there is no day.
With that background, now we’ll look at unlimited; when you say something is unlimited, it means that there is no boundary; it means there are no restrictions whether in number, in quantity, in depth, in volume, no restriction whatsoever, just as much as you can have it.
So unlimited possibilities refer to a situation where for every issue of life that we face, with God, there are so many options and there’s no limitation to how far He can go to take care of those issues. That’s what we are going to talk about today literally, but we are going to be telling stories from the Bible, I’m going to be relating it to the issues of life, so I want to implore us, please follow through, one or two will relate to you, hold on to it and run with it, don’t say I’m familiar with this story, there’s something in each of those stories for you to learn, praise the Lord! Praise the living Jesus!
Isaiah 55: 8 & 9, the Bible says “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, (God is saying now); neither are your ways My ways; as the heaven is higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways”. God is saying when you look at this and they say move this, in my head, to move this I only want to lift it but for God, He can just blow His nostrils and it moves, so He’s not seeing things the way we see it, He won’t do things the way we’ll do it but He will get it done.
So let’s look at some of the scenarios and the things that will possibly happen when unlimited possibilities come to play in our lives; the first example, the first story we’ll tell, you’ll have victory without limits. Exodus 12: 31-36, the Bible tells us that they came, after about 400 years, the children of Israel now had the opportunity to leave Egypt eventually for the Promised Land; they were excited, they were happy, they were not just leaving, they were leaving with a lot of resources, so that created a lot of excitement, they were happy to leave, but when they got to a certain point along the journey in Exodus 14, the Red Sea said to them where are you all going? Where are you coming from? Where are you going? Stay there, no more movements.
So there was a limitation in the movement, they couldn’t go forward, they looked back and saw the host of Egypt coming, they could also not go backward. Exodus 14: 10- 13, what did they do? They began to reign abuses and queries and curses upon their leader, Moses; (from 10) why have you brought us here? You would have left us in Egypt let us be servants and slaves in Egypt rather than die in this wilderness; we would have stayed back in Egypt to continue to eat cucumber, Moses you are the one that caused this, take all the gold we don’t want it, we want life.
Why did they say that? They have looked at the situation, they could not go through the Red Sea because of the limitation; they could also not go back, Pharaoh is coming and he will kill them; so they thought it was all over. To man, it will seem as if it’s over, but God had a different plan; verse 13, God said to Moses, why do you stand there looking at me? You have a rod, stretch it over the water and it parted; the first time that would happen and they walked over and they got to the end, they never imagined that there would be way through the sea, praise the living Jesus!
And the Egyptians followed them but God used that same sea that made the way for the children of Israel to drown the Egyptians and gave them victory, permanent victory over their archenemies. There is someone here today, in the battle of life you’ve come to a point where you think there is no way forward, and you do not know how to proceed and you have surrendered and said it’s all over, the God of unlimited possibilities will open way for you in the name of Jesus, and He will give you unusual victory over all those issues in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
Story number two, provision without limit; there can be provision without limits. 1st Kings 17: 8- 16, this is the story of the widow of Zarephath; in the morning I said those who attended digging deep, this will still be very fresh because that was what we talked about last Tuesday; you see the benefit of coming to digging deep, but I’ll try to just paraphrase but digging deep was really deep, so please I invite you to digging deep on Tuesday and don’t miss it again.
There was famine in the land; no water, no food, nothing else, people didn’t have enough energy to even move about, and everything was almost lifeless; so there was this widow in a city called Zarephath, this had taken away their resources to the level where they had only one left for her and her son to eat and after eating it, she said they would wait for death. I wonder and said why would somebody conclude that they would wait for it? People don’t want to talk about their death, but she would have seen people, neighbors, people around, or she would have heard what happened to others after they finished their food because nobody was going to share with another because of famine, that they eventually passed out; so they were going to wait for their own, that is because that’s all she could see – the limitation of man, but unknown to her, God said to Elijah, (he was at the brook waiting there), arise, go to Zarephath, you will see a widow there, do this and do this, dwell in that place and Elijah went.
He got there, he said Madam, I’ve been coming from a journey please I need water; the woman said in this famine, water? Okay, I can share a bit; as she was going to fetch the water, he said please make food for me. She said, are you a stranger in this land? You mean you don’t know what’s happening or you didn’t hear from where you are coming from that there’s no food? I can’t give because I have only one left; but Elijah insisted and said, by the leading and according to the word of God, give me food.
Thank God the woman heeded; I pray for you, at the turning point of your life, may you make the right decisions in the mighty name of Jesus. The woman yielded her last meal, it means that her death sentence was faster but she didn’t mind because it was God now at play, but God ensured that what was supposed to be the last meal became the beginning of meals, and ensured that she, her son, her household, I believe the neighbors would be coming to eat for three years until the famine was over and there was no lack.
May I speak to somebody here; the situation that we are going through, many people, is like famine; there’s no food like we used to have, no water like we used to have, people cannot just go and buy things as they used to do, because everything is now unsteady, you measure and measure and you are thinking when would this be over; in the name that’s above every other name, in the midst of this shortage, in the midst of insufficiency, in the midst of famine, in the midst of lack, the Lord Almighty will open new ways for you in the mighty name of Jesus. Where others are rationing food, you’ll be giving out in the mighty name of Jesus. Where others are waiting for death, you will be renewing lives in the name of Jesus.
The third story; healing without limit. There is this story in the Bible, John 5: 1- 11, the Bible tells us that there’s a pool in a city called Bethesda, and around that place in one of the porches, there are sick people, people with different sicknesses –the lame, the blind, those who could not hear, those who had stomach pain, anything whatsoever they were all there, so they called it impotent folks, he was among these impotent folks.
So this man was there but the people were not there without hope, once in a season the Bible says an angel would come, trouble the water, and whoever would run into that water first would be healed of whatever sickness they had; that was a protocol and they were living with that.
So this man was lame; please tell me, in a congregation like that, a lame man, how could he ever win that race? So it was a no battle, it was a no starter for him but he tried, after some time he realized that there’s no way he was going to win this, he surrendered to fate. John 5: 6; when Jesus saw him lie, what was he doing? He was lying down, he said I cannot come and kill myself, I can’t run anymore, there’s no point because it doesn’t amount to anything for me.
He could not see another way of healing other than running into that pool, but one day Jesus Christ came to him and said do you want to be made whole? Ehn, I want to but there’s nobody to help me; He said do you want to be made whole? Even against his unbelief, God moved. You know some of us will be saying ah, is it true or is it not true? The Lord Almighty will help your unbelief in the mighty name of Jesus.
Before the end of that day, instead of having to run into water, God bypassed that protocol and went to him directly. Somebody will receive divine favor in the name of Jesus. God went to him directly and he packed his bag that day, he walked out of that place that day, people saw him and marveled that same day. In the name that’s above every other name, I do not know what is the sickness, I do not know what is it that people have labeled you through it and said impotent folk or that sick man or that man with that condition, that woman with that; the One who bypassed a protocol at Bethesda will visit you today in the mighty name of Jesus.
The doctors have said there is no way; the doctors have said this womb cannot carry a child; the doctors have said this thing is terminal; the doctors have said this thing cannot be cured, that is the doctor; the Doctor of doctors says I made you; the Doctor of doctors says I know what to do to make it right, and it will come to you in the name of Jesus.
Story number four; abundance without limits. 2nd Kings 4: 1-7; here we have the story of a woman who was married to a son of a prophet but she became widowed, that means her husband died, but when the husband died, the Bible tells us that she had two sons but the husband had used the two sons to borrow money. May you not get to a situation where you will use your children to borrow money in the mighty name of Jesus.
And the husband died and left a huge debt that the generations after him could not finish to pay. When you are going to leave this world, you will not leave debts in the name of Jesus. The Bible says a good man liveth an inheritance for his children’s children, the Lord will bless you so much that you will live good inheritance not debt for your generations to come in the name of Jesus.
So back to the story of this woman; the woman one day, when she heard that the creditors were coming, got up and said I won’t allow them to take my sons; she went to Elisha, help me, and then we know the story, but before I go back to that story, there are a few things I want to point out here; she was the wife of a minister in the church, I assumed that she was a Christian by implication; many of us think that the moment you say you are a Christian or you are a child of God, no more problems, you are living in heaven because it’s only in heaven that there is no more problem, Hallelujah!
Brethren, there will be challenges, there will be troubles, there will be tribulations, there will be persecutions, but the only thing the Bible tells us is that we will overcome, and you will overcome them in the name of Jesus. Psalms 34: 17, the Bible says “The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles”, may you be delivered in the name of Jesus.
Another lesson from that woman is; whenever there is trouble, don’t keep it to yourselves. These jackets, these clothes, that we are all wearing cover a lot of secrets; some people looking fine, beautiful and all that, new shoes and all that, but inside they are crying, crying alone can kill fast. The woman did not go to Elisha immediately her husband died, she must have been crying for some time before she cried openly, don’t wait, seek for help, and number three is that when she asked for help, help came immediately. The help that you need is around you, may the Lord open your eyes to see them in the mighty name of Jesus.
Psalms 46: 1, the Bible says God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble; He’s always there, ever there, all you need to do is cry, you don’t need MTN, you don’t need any line – any communication line, just talk to God and He will answer. Praise the living Jesus!
Now back to the woman; she ran to Elisha, she probably expected Elisha to say thus saith the Lord, by this time tomorrow you shall no longer be indebted, the creditor will die; it’s not true, the creditor did not do anything wrong by giving you money, so please if you are owing, pay back, don’t go and pray prayer that the creditor should die, they will not die because God is a just God.
She probably also expected Elisha to say don’t worry, I’ll talk to them on your behalf, they will leave you, but none of those happened, what did Elisha say? We will pay this debts but I’ll show you how, and God said to her, go and take vessels -empty vessels, the only little oil you have, start spreading it, she said haha, how can this small thing fill… he said just continue, the just shall live by faith, and then she started, one, two, three, four, five, six, twenty, hundred, like that, and then until the last vessel was filled, then he gave her instruction, go and sell.
She sold only a part of it and paid the debt; she said what do I do with the remaining? That is yours, go and live, you are no longer in debt but in abundance. Brethren, she could not find a way out but God who had a thousand ways out of troubles showed the way, may the Lord Almighty open the way for you in the name of Jesus, and in place of lack, He will give you abundance. For those who are in debts, the Lord will pay them miraculously in His own way in the mighty name of Jesus.
But please remember, don’t pray that your creditor should die, please.
Number five; laughter without limits, that’s another story, laughter without limits. In the morning we used the story of Sarah, Genesis 21: 1- 3, but also in this category is Hannah, so Genesis 21; the Bible says “And the Lord visited Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did unto Sarah as he had spoken. (verse 2), she conceived, bear Abraham a son in his old age, at the time that God has spoken to him.(verse 3) and then bear his son and called the name of the son Isaac”. Isaac means laughter, so it means that she had been crying, she had been sorrowful and God put an end to that sorrow with Isaac, she was already 90 years old.
In Genesis 18, the angels said to her or the messenger said to her, in the season of life by this time next year, you will bear; she said me, at this age, can I still have a child? That is the reason of a man, a man thinks after a certain age you can’t conceive again, but it is not so with God, the One who made the body, you are only counting age, 90 years, what is 90 years before God? The One in whose timeline a thousand years is like a day; 90 years is like this.
So God opened the womb and she had the child and put an end to sorrow, and she became Mama Laughter; in the name that is above every other name, whatever has been causing you to cry, bringing sorrow to your lives, the Lord will put an end to them in the name of Jesus. He will make you to laugh; your name will become laughter from today in Jesus name.
The next story and perhaps the last one, hope without limits. Brethren, there is nothing that brings hopelessness like death; nothing brings hopelessness like death; once something dies or someone dies, hope is over, but that is with man, with God, death is not the end.
One of the days Paul found himself before a king called Agrippa, Acts 26: 8, he said Paul, you have been accused of this of this of that, come and speak for yourself, and instead of Paul making case for himself, he started preaching and started talking to him about how Jesus died and was raised up; so I’m sure Agrippa was like die, when somebody is dead he’s dead now, how can He be raised up? Paul said why should you think it is impossible that God will raise the dead?
But I don’t blame Agrippa; in the calendar of man, once something dies it is over, but God can bring the dead back to life; He did it in John 11; Lazarus was sick, they called Him He said I’m coming, but before He came, Lazarus died. When He came, Martha went to Him and said I’m disappointed in You, I thought we were friends, You couldn’t even come in time until Your friend died; it’s over now, so what are You coming to do now? You can as well go back to where You are coming from. Jesus Christ said calm down, Lazarus will live, she said I know, on the resurrection day; she said you are waiting for resurrection day in 10,000 years when the Resurrection and the Life is with you now, when do you want it? Is it tomorrow or now? And then He went to the tomb of Lazarus and only called his name and gave a command to come out; the dead, grave, heard the voice of Jesus Christ and said Lazarus you don’t belong here, go, go, and the dead came back to life.
So brethren, I’m saying whatever situation you find yourself that appears to be hopeless, if there’s nothing as hopeless as death and God can put a renewal to death, whatsoever it is in your life that is hopeless, today, the Lord Almighty will give a renewed hope in the mighty name of Jesus.
They said the womb cannot carry a baby anymore, not so with God; they said the business is dead, not so with God; they said you cannot graduate, not so with God; they said you have passed the age of marriage, not so with God; whatsoever the world has written off, God will reopen them for you in Jesus mighty name.
But I’d like to add to you that when you begin to operate in this realm of unlimited possibilities, certain things will happen; we can’t take all but we’ll take a few; the first of it is that dreams and destinies are fulfilled. You remember the story of Joseph; he was a dreamer, he dreamed that one day, his family, brother, father, everybody will come and bow down. One day his brother said okay, here comes a dreamer, when we finish with him, let us see how that dream will come to pass, but because Joseph was operating under the shadow of the God of unlimited possibilities, they could not kill him, they sold him.
The people they sold him to sold him forward; in that place they said we’ll punish you, go to prison; in the prison, he met destiny helper who took him to his destiny. The destiny that the brother said let us see how it will be achieved, he achieved it; the bow down that they didn’t want to bow down, not only did they bow down, they prostrated. In the name that’s above every other name, you will fulfill your dreams; you will reach your destinies in life in the mighty name of Jesus.
If there’s anyone here and they have told you they cannot amount to anything, it is a lie from the pit of hell, you will amount to something in the name of Jesus.
When you operate under the realm of unlimited possibilities, your enemies will be at peace with you, Hallelujah! In Genesis 26, brethren, it’s not today that japa syndrome started, in Genesis 26, Isaac realized that things are not moving but they said to him in certain countries it is happening; he said I want to japa and God said no, stay here, it is here that I will bless you, and that’s a message for somebody; before you make that move, hear what God is saying, don’t japa anyhow, hear what God is saying.
So Isaac stayed in obedience to the word of God and then the Philistines frustrated him in many ways, but every time they tried to stop him he grew better, he became stronger, he became mightier. So one day they all had a family meeting and said let us borrow ourselves sense, this guy that we are trying to stop is unstoppable, let us go and beg him and make friends with him.
His enemies came together, Genesis 26: 26-28, and said please, we were being childish before, now we’ve come to our senses, don’t be annoyed, he accepted them and they became friends. Every enemy of your life that speaks against you behind you and when they see you they say good things, they are enemies; every enemy of your life that is digging the pit for you, as you begin to operate under the realm of unlimited possibilities, they will come to make peace with you in the mighty name of Jesus.
We can take one more; you will become an ambassador for Christ. When you operate under this realm, you will become Christ’s ambassador. A very good example of that is Apostle Paul; the Bible tells us that Paul went through a lot of things; shipwreck, he was imprisoned, they beat him, caned him, they abused him, they tore his clothes, they took him to everywhere but guess what, if you look through the whole of the Bible, save Jesus Christ, the one who stood out like a picture of an ambassador for Christ was Paul, because he operated under that realm of unlimited possibilities.
From today, wherever you go, people will see Christ in you; signs and wonders will introduce you; the words you speak shall become laws in the mighty name of Jesus. You will carry the body of Christ. 2nd Corinthians 5: 26, and now we are ambassadors for Christ, and that’s who you are from today in the mighty name of Jesus.
But these are very good things but we have roles to play; to get these things to happen, there are things that we also must do; one of the things we need to do, you must have faith in God. Mark 9: 23, all these things are mind-blowing, you remember that man by the pool of Bethesda, he didn’t have faith; remember Sarah, when they told her that she would give birth, she said at this age, 90? She didn’t believe it; you must have faith to be able to contain what God is about to do.
Mark 9: 23, Jesus said unto him, if thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. All things are possible once you believe God that God can do it.
Number two, you must surrender your life to Jesus Christ. So if you have not at any time surrendered your life to Him, or if you did and you walked back, it’s a good opportunity to go back to Him because the God of unlimited possibilities will give things first to His children, will give His children preferential treatment over any other person, Hallelujah!
So when it is time, when we make the altar call, please run forward; and then still on that, Romans 10: 9& 10 say, if thou will confess with your mouth that the Lord Jesus and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, then thou shall be saved. That’s all you need to do, confession with your mouth, Hallelujah!
Apart from this impossibility that will be broken today that we talked about, there’s also a very more important reason why you must surrender your life to Jesus Christ; last week was Easter Sunday, we all celebrated the resurrection of Jesus Christ, but there is a message in that resurrection and the message is that Jesus Christ showed us that we’ll live, we’ll die, and we’ll be raised, that’s the message, and for those who will still be alive when He comes back, they may not die but they will rise up with Him, but that’s going to be that, but if you are not in a position to be raised when He comes back, it should be unfortunate.
So I want to invite as many people here this morning, you have never accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, or you did at a time but with circumstances of life you’ve gone back, you want to come to Him this morning, start with Him anew, salvation is available for you this morning, give your life to Jesus Christ, accept Him, surrender to Him as your Lord and Savior, and then you will enter into the realm of unlimited possibilities, He’ll put an end to failure, put an end to stagnation.
If you are here this morning, just wave your hands because we want to pray quickly. You are here this morning, you want to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, please just come. Come and join them because Jesus Christ is coming back as the Bible tells us and He’s coming back for a church without blemish or wrinkle, if there’s sin in your life, you know there is a tarnish in your life, please come and accept Him as Lord and Savior. if you
You are here, you are in between making up your mind, just come forward and the Lord Almighty will accept you in the mighty name of Jesus. While waiting for them to come, please let us rise, so we can take our prayers; brethren let us give thanks to God, our God of our limited possibilities, the One who can make different options available, more than a thousand options for every situation; let us thank Him, brethren, let us thank God; let’s thank God; let’s bless His Holy name; let us give Him thanks for salvation; let us give Him thanks; let us bless His Holy name. Father we thank You; Father we thank You; God of unlimited possibilities we thank You; we give You all the glory; we give You all honor and adoration in the mighty name of Jesus. Thank You blessed Redeemer, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed. In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.
We heard the song by the choir, it says ‘all things are possible’, and indeed all things are possible because it’s supported by the scripture, Luke 1: 37, so if there is any impossibility in your life right now, you have aspirations, things you want to do but there are barriers, the reasons why they are not happening; God is saying all things are possible, come to God.
So we are going to pray and say Father, in the mighty name of Jesus, please put an end to every impossibility in my life; every barrier, every barrier in my life, every limitation, every restriction over my life, Father please put an end; for with You nothing shall be impossible, please put an end oh Lord, put an end O Lord, to every barrier in my life in the mighty name of Jesus. Thank you heavenly Father, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.
We see that everybody in life at a point in time comes to a critical point where you take certain decisions, and decision you take determines if you’ll go up or go down or remain there. We saw it, the widow of Zarephath had a decision to make, last meal, maybe if she ate that meal she would still have two days to live, if she doesn’t eat she’ll die today; but she decided to give it to Jesus, she took the right decision and the story we all know.
We are going to cry to the Lord Almighty; Father, please help me to make the right decisions at all times, in my life, in the name of Jesus. Help me to make that right decision in the mighty name of Jesus. Help me O Lord to make the right decision always; everything that I need to do, Father Lord help me to make the right decisions in the mighty name of Jesus. Help me oh Lord to make that right decision in the name of Jesus. Thank You Father, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.
And finally, for every situation we look at it, we are blinded because we are humans and see only one possibility, but God has many options and He can use any of them, but what happens to us is that most times we are fixated on what we see and we continue to stay there at that roadblock instead of saying God, what are You saying?
Let us cry to the Lord Almighty and say Father, in the mighty name of Jesus, please give me the grace to always look unto You every time I get to a roadblock, every time I get to a crossroad, to look unto You for options; show me the plans that You have for my life. Father please give me the grace oh Lord to always depend on You; to always look up to You every time I get to a point where I can go no further; in every situation that I find myself, help me to always look up to You; help me O Lord in the name of Jesus. Thank You Father, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed. Amen. Praise the Lord!
Dream is one of the ways through which God communicates with us. However, it is important to note that Satan also manipulate dreams and can also afflict through it.

Matthew 28:19-20 19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Mark 5:19 19 Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.
Introduction.
Talking about Jesus is a command by the master Himself. This is called witnessing. Anyone who has experienced Jesus is compiled to tell the world about the Saviour of mankind. The grace we need to talk about Jesus, may we receive it in Jesus Name. Amen!
What Can We Talk Or Tell About Jesus.
1. We Can Tell Of His Power To Save.
Matthew 1:21 21And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.
Matthew 9:1-6
Jesus stepped into a boat, crossed over and came to his own town.
2 Some men brought to him a paralyzed man, lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the man, “Take heart, son; your sins are forgiven.”
3At this, some of the teachers of the law said to themselves, “This fellow is blaspheming!”
4Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said, “Why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts? 5 Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? 6But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the paralyzed man, “Get up, take your mat and go home.”
2. We Can Tell Of His Power To Heal.
Isaiah 53:5
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
1 Peter 2:24
Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
3. We Can Tell Of His Power To Deliver.
Mark 5:1-13
And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.
2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,
3Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:
4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.
5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.
6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,
7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
8For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.
9And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.
10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
11 Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.
12 And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.
13And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.
4. We Can Tell Of His Power To Transform Lives.
Acts 9:1-20
And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,
2And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.
3And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:
4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
5And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
6And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.
7 And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.
8 And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.
9And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink.
10 And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.
11And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth,
12 And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hand on him, that he might receive his sight.
13Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem:
14And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name.
15But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:
16For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name’s sake.
17 And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
18And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.
19 And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.
20And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.
Conclusion.
Every genuine Christian will surely have something to tell about Jesus in his or her life. What can you say about Jesus?
Thank You Jesus.

There has never been any man who walked on the face of this earth like Jesus Christ. He is God who became man. John 1:1-14.
There Is No Name Like Jesus.
Philippians 2:9-11
“9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father..”
All Begins And Ends With Jesus.
Colossians 1:17 17And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
What Jesus Did For Us.

Jesus Saves By His Blood.
1 John 1:7 “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”
Jesus Heals By His Stripes.
1 Peter 2:24 “Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree,that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.” Exodus 15:26 “And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.”
Jesus Delivers By Being The Truth.
John 8:32 “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 14:6“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 10:10 “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.”
Jesus Supplies Through His Riches.
Philippians 4:19 “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
Jesus Protects Through His Superior Fighting Ability.
Philippians 2:9-11
“9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Psalm 24:7-10
“7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. 8Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. 9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
10 Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory.”
WHAT JESUS EXPECTS FROM US.
He expects certain things from us in return. He expects us to have faith in Him, submit to Him, Obey Him, win souls and follow them up until they become established and to watch and pray. 1. Prayer can determine who is chosen and who is not for a particular position. Although merit and hard work are vital criteria for being chosen to occupy a vacancy at the top, however, prayer can produce mercy, which can reorganise the situation in one’s favour-
Zechariah 1:17“The angel also told me to proclaim: “The Lord Almighty says that his cities will be prosperous again and that he will once again help Jerusalem and claim the city as his own.”
Matthew 20:16 “ So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.” 2. Not only will prayer determine who is chosen, it also determines what we inherit or possess.How a need is met can be determined by the type of prayer that is made- Psalm 47:4“He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved” Prayer is heaven’s currency for purchasing your blessings. The blessing you take from heaven’s store house will depend on how much you paid in prayer.
Conclusion.
Pray until your joy is full (John 16:24)
Thank You Jesus!

I’ve Found A Friend In Jesus
He’s Everything To Me.
He’s The Fairest Of Ten Thousand To My Soul;
The Lily Of The Valley, In Him Alone I See

Though All The World Forsake Me,
And Satan Tempt Me Sore, Through Jesus I Shall Safely
Reach The Goal, (Hallelujah!)

Revelation_21-4: And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away
Text
1 Corinthians 15:54-57
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Introduction
Death is the opposite of life, the departure of life. It is the separation of the body, soul and spirit. The body is destroyed and the spirit goes back to God.
What Are The Causes Of Death?
Disobedience to God
James 1:15
Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
Sin
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Dishonesty
Ezekiel 22:13
Behold, therefore I have smitten mine hand at thy dishonest gain which thou hast made, and at thy blood which hath been in the midst of thee.
Pride
Proverbs 16:18
Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
Ambition for power
Act 8:19
Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.
Who Can Conquer Death?
Jesus Christ
1 Corinthians 15:15
Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.
Those Who surrender their lives unto Jesus Christ
John 10:10
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
How Do We Conquer Death?
By rapture
1 Corinthian 15:55
O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory?
By living the life of holiness
1 Peter 1:15-16
15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
Conclusion
Jesus Christ died that you and I mighty live.
Philippians_3-10: All I want is to know Christ and to experience the power of his resurrection, to share in his sufferings and become like him in his death
Thank You Jesus!

“She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”
Matthew 1:21
Matthew_1-21: And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins
It’s hard to imagine what it was like for Jesus to live under the shadow of the cross every day of His life. Even as a lad in Joseph’s carpenter shop, nailing those nails into a piece of lumber, He must’ve thought about the day when those soldiers would drive the nails in His hands and in His feet.
One of my favourite pictures of Jesus portrays Christ as a toddler. It’s the end of the day. He’s playing next to His father, Joseph, in his carpentry shop and the sun is setting. And as Jesus is kneeling down handling some metal spikes, the shadow of a cross is formed on the ground over His shoulder.
Jesus lived every day of His life in anticipation of that moment when He would give His life on the cross for our sins. So it was no surprise when He, at about 33 years of age, was arrested, beaten, and sentenced to die for the sins of the world.
And even harder than that is to imagine that when He died, He made a way for you to have a relationship with God. So thank Jesus today for what He did for you and, if you haven’t already, accept the gift of salvation He’s given you through His death and resurrection.
Jesus Lived Every Day In Light Of What He Would Do For You On The Cross. So Thank Him And Trust That He’s Saved You From Death!
1-Peter_2-24: Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed

Hebrews_12-2: Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God
Jesus, My Eyes Are Unto Thee
For Thou Art All I Long To See,
Since Thou Hast Suffered On The Tree,
That I Might Live.
Jesus, My Heart Is Fixed On
Thee,
Waiting For All Thou Hast For Me,
Seeking A Closer Walk With
Thee,
Thy Paths To See.
Jesus, My Soul Still Pants For Thee,
For Thou Art All In All To Me,
And When Thy Blessed Face I
See,
At Rest I’ll Be.
Jesus, For Thy Great Love I Yearn,
Even For Those God’s Ways Who Spurn,
That Through Thy Love From Death They’ll Turn,
To Thee And Live.
Oh, That My Steps May Quickened Be,
To Follow him Who Still Loves Me,
And Bids Me Through Eternity,
With Him To Dwell,
Jesus, of Him Shall Be My
Song,
Who Loved Me Patiently And Long,
My Life, My All, Henceforth Belong,
To Him Alone.
Amen!

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, God Cares

It Is The Way The Master Went,
Should Not The Servant Tread It
Still?
Go. Labour On; ‘Tis Not For Nought,

Wide.

Ephesians_5-25: Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it
The Church Is One Foundation
Is Jesus Christ Her Lord:
She Is His New Creation
By Water And The Word;
From Heaven He Came And
Sought Her
To He His Holy Bride;
With His Own Blood He Bought
Her,
And For Her Life He Died.
Elect From Every Nation,
Yet One Over All The Earth,
Her Charter Of Salvation
One Lord, One Faith, One Birth,
One Holy Name She Blesses
Partakes One Holy Food,
And To One Hope She Presses,
With Every Grace Endued.
Though With A Scornful Wonder
Men See Her Sore Oppressed,
By Schisms Rent Asunder,
By Heresies Distressed,
Yet Saints Their Watch Are
Keeping,
Their Cry Goes Up, “How Long?”
And Soon The Night Of Weeping
Shall Be The Morn Of Song.
‘Mid Toil And Tribulation,
And Tumult Of Her War,
She Wait The Consummation
Of Peace For Evermore.
Till With The Vision Glorious
Her Longing Eyes Are Blest,
And The Great Church Victorious
Shall Be The Church At Rest.
Yet She On Earth Hath Union
With God The Three In One
And Mystic Sweet Communion
With Those Whose Rest Is Won,
O Happy Ones And Holy!
Lord. Give Us Us Grace That We
Like Them, The Meek And Lowly
On High May Dwell Will Thee
Amen!

And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
Hear The Footsteps Of Jesus
He Is Now Passing By,
Bearing Balm For The Wounded,
Healing All Who Apply;
As He Spake To The Suffrer
Who Lay At The Pool,
He Is Saying This Moment
“Wilt Thou Be Made Whole ?“
Wilt Thou Be Made Whole? Wilt Thou Be Made Whole? Oh. Come Weary Sufferer, Oh, Come. Sin Sick Soul: See The Life-Stream Is Flowing See The Cleansing Waves Roll: Step Into The Current And Thou Shalt Be Whole.
“Tis The Voice Of That Saviour
Whose Merciful Call,
Freely Offers Salvation To One
And To All:
He Is Now Beckning To Him,
Each Sin Tainted Soul,
And Lovingly Asking
Wilt Thou Be Made Whole?
Are You Halting And Struggling,
Over Powred By Your Sin,
While The Waters Are Troubled,
Can You Not Enter In?
Lo. The Saviour Stands
Waiting To Strengthen Your Soul,
He Is Earnestly Pleading,
‘Wilt Thou Be Made Whole?”
Blessed Saviour, Assist Us,
To Rest On Thy Word,
Let The Soul Healing Power.
On Us Now Be Out-Poured:
Wash Away Every Sin Spot,
Take Perfect Control
Say To Each Trusting Spirit,
“Wilt Thou Be Made Whole?”
Amen!

My Jesus Loves To Heal, Deliver, Prosper And Save People
John_9-25: He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
John 14:7
“If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”
Someone once told me that just because you ask God for something, it does not mean that He will give it to you. Quoting 1 John 5:14–15, he said that we first have to ask according to His will before He hears and gives us what we ask of Him.
Of course, we do not ask for things that are against God’s will or Word. But what is normally implied in the earlier statement is that we don’t always know what God’s will for us is—“what will be, will be”. But didn’t Jesus say, “He who has seen Me has seen the Father”? (John 14:9) This means that if you want to know what the Father’s will, mind, heart or attitude toward you and your family is, just look at Jesus in the Gospel stories.
So if your child is sick, is it God’s will to heal him? Well, look at Jesus and see how He ministered to children who were sick—the Syro-Phoenician’s daughter who was demon-possessed (Mark 7:24–30), Jairus’ daughter who was dead (Mark 5:22–24, 35–43), and the widow of Nain’s only son who had died and was about to be buried. (Luke 7:12–15) Jesus cast out the demon. He raised the dead. He healed them all!
Beloved, don’t say, “We can never know God’s will. Sometimes He heals, sometimes He doesn’t. He may bless us, but He may also take away our blessings.” The Jesus of the Bible never made anyone sick. He never made anyone poor. He made the little become much with 12 baskets full of leftovers. (Matthew 14:20) He gave a net-breaking, boat-sinking load of fish to fishermen. (Luke 5:6–7)
My friend, the Jesus of the Bible loves to heal, deliver, prosper and save people. This Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever. (Hebrews 13:8) And He says to you today, “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.” So you can know God’s will for you. You can see what He will do for you when you know the Jesus of the Bible and what He did.
Jeremiah_33-3: Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not

Deuteronomy_6-5: And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
“If ye love me, keep my commandments.”
John 14:15 (KJV)
I have discovered that everyone wants to love God. At least, everyone wants to show God that they love him. Oftentimes, people have asked me, how do I know if I love God? The answer is simple.
In 1 John 14:15, the Bible says, “If you love me, keep my commandments”. That is very direct and simple enough to understand. If you say you love God, just do what He says. In verse 21 of the same chapter, the same condition is repeated. The proof of your love for God is in your willingness to obey His voice. Do not just read the Bible for religious exercise; keep His words. And you say, it is not easy to keep God’s commandments. Yes I agree, but at least, you must be seen to be making efforts.
You see, righteousness is a practice. There is the righteousness that God gives to us which we receive when we get born again. He makes us righteous. Now, after you are born again, you start to practice righteousness; just like a baby is taught how to sit down. You know when a baby is newly born, say a few days old, you cannot force the baby to sit down. But after some weeks, the mother begins to teach the baby to sit down, from there the baby is taught how to crawl, how to stand; one step at a time. When all these things are happening, the baby will be falling and rising. Now, will you say because the baby is falling and rising, he should not practice anymore? Of course not.
Some of us believers do not practice righteousness. Many times, we forget how we used to practice sin… Some of us became chain smokers because we practiced smoking. The first day I tried to smoke, I was choked but that did not deter me. I kept on practicing until I perfected the act. The same way you practice righteousness. You must purpose in your heart that when you see something in the scriptures, you want to act on it. That’s how maturity comes.
The Bible says in 1 John 5:3 that “For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments and His commandments are grievous”. They are not as hard as you assume. Mind you the commandments are not given to please God but for your own good.
Decide today to love God, not in words, but in deeds. Then watch Him embarrass you with His blessings.
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
1 John 5:1-5
Micah 6-7
Revelation 13
Luke_11-28: But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

Salvation Prayers
If you don’t Know Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour and would like to accept him into your life as your personal Lord and Saviour, Please say this prayer:
Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from You. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward You. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that Your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send Your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your Will for the rest of my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.

O Lord Give Me The Boldness To Always Step Out In Faith, To Demonstrate Your Awesome Power To The World
“And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.”
Mark 16:20 (KJV)
After the Lord had spoken and given instructions to his disciples, He was received up into heaven. Immediately, they went forth and began to preach everywhere. And as they stepped out in faith in obedience to God’s word, God’s power was demonstrated mightily.
Do you know what the church has done? We decorate our stained windows. We have a good choir and smiling ushers and greeters. We preach good sermons. And we are now sitting down in church waiting for sinners to come to us. We make the church beautiful and use all kinds of media promotion. But that is not God’s strategy. God’s strategy is that power is released in obedience. Power is not released when we act contrary to divine instructions.
In Deuteronomy 28:1-2, the word of God declares: “and it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God to observe and to do all his commandments,…………all these blessings shall come on thee and overtake thee”(KJV). Notice that God began to work with the disciples when they chose to function in obedience. “The Lord working with them”God is saying in essence; the new strategy is that I am not going to do it alone. “We will work together”. The disciples went everywhere. They did not sit down in church. We have not seen signs because we are sitting down.
According to Ephesians 5:30: “we are members of His body, of his flesh and of his bones”(KJV). That means that the anointing can only flow today through us. We are the body, He is the Head. The head can’t get things done without the body. Jesus cannot heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out devils or do good to any person if you don’t do it. No one can experience Jesus if you don’t step out in faith to demonstrate His power. May the Lord give you boldness. Amen!
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
20And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen. Mark 16:15-20
Mark_16-15: And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature
1-Corinthians_1-18: For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God
18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Matthew 28:18-20
Nehemiah_8-10: Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength
Matthew_10-16: Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
It Is Awesome For God To Send His Son Jesus Christ To Die In My Place
12Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
Philippians 2:12-13
Salvation is a wonderful gift of God to mankind, it is awesome for God to send His son to die in our place and thereby redeem us from sin and satan and reconcile us to Himself. It is a free gift from God and once we confess our sins, ask for forgiveness and confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, we are saved, it’s straightforward.
Nevertheless, many Christians struggle in their walk with God, as they feel once they get saved things just begin to work out, they feel they ought to become holy and immune to temptation automatically. Our text today makes it clear that, there is work to be done on our own part, it is like the case of a student who wants a university degree and has been given a free entry and scholarship into the university, the student still has to study, he can’t just assume he will graduate automatically without any effort on his own part, he has to attend lectures, study hard, write exams and pass.
So our walk with God requires ‘work’, we have to cultivate, carry out the goal, and fully complete our salvation; we need to work it for it to work for us. We need to know that it is a walk of Faith, (2 Corinthians 5:7), and not of fear that comes from sight walking, when we pray, we should believe that God will answer and ‘act’ accordingly.
We also ought to walk with self-distrust, with serious caution, tenderness of conscience, watchfulness against temptation, timidly shrinking from whatever might offend God and discredit the name of Christ.
Most important of all , we must know that we cannot do it by our power, and that it is God Who is all the while effectually at work in us [energizing and creating in us the power and desire], both to will and to work for His good pleasure and satisfaction and delight.
It becomes easier when we have more of God in our lives and less of ‘us’ in us.
Confession
I will not be lazy with regards of my salvation, I have the grace and strength to continuously work it out. Hallelujah!
Romans_1-16: For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek
Romans_10-10: For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation

Attracting Greater Love Of God. Sermon And Prayer Points By Pastor E A Adeboye
Memorise:
For It Became Him, For Whom Are All Things, And By Whom Are All Things, In Bringing Many Sons Unto Glory, To Make The Captain Of Their Salvation Perfect Through Sufferings. Hebrews 2:10
Read: Genesis 22:15-18 15 And The Angel Of The Lord Called Unto Abraham Out Of Heaven The Second Time, 16 And Said, By Myself Have I Sworn, Saith The Lord, For Because Thou Hast Done This Thing, And Hast Not Withheld Thy Son, Thine Only Son: 17That In Blessing I Will Bless Thee, And In Multiplying I Will Multiply Thy Seed As The Stars Of The Heaven, And As The Sand Which Is Upon The Sea Shore; And Thy Seed Shall Possess The Gate Of His Enemies; 18And In Thy Seed Shall All The Nations Of The Earth Be Blessed; Because Thou Hast Obeyed My Voice.
Message
Your Love For God Is Something You Must Prove To Be Genuine. God Is Not Satisfied With Verbal Affirmations Only. He Is Not Satisfied With Promises To Love Surrounded By Procrastination. He Wants To See Your Love For Real; Hence, 1 John 3:18 Says: “My Little Children, Let Us Not Love In Word, Neither In Tongue; But In Deed And In Truth.”
Have You Been Able To Prove Your Love For God Beyond Words? One Beautiful Truth Here Is That Whenever You Demonstrate Your Love For God, It Will Attract Greater Love From Him. This Principle Can Also Be Seen In The Natural World.
If I Smile At You, Unless You Are Angry With Me, You Will Return The Smile. Every Time You Prove To God That You Love Him, He Will Reciprocate By Showing You Greater Love. In Acts 20:35, Apostle Paul Echoed The Words Of Our Lord Jesus Christ That It Is Better To Give Than To Receive. Many People Find It Hard To Understand This. Simply Put, It Is Better To Give Because When You Give, You Automatically Open The Door To Receive More Than What You Gave.
The Act Of Giving Is Subject To The Law Of Harvest; Therefore, Everyone Who Gives Receives Something Much More Than What Was Given, Because The Harvest Is Usually Greater Than The Seed Sown. Hebrews 2:9-10Tells Us That When God Gave His Only Begotten Son, He Brought Many More Sons Into Glory. God Gave One Son And Now Has Millions Of Sons And Daughters From Different Parts Of The World. There Are Some Desires That You May Not Receive Until You Give. There Are Certain Great Requests That May Appear Illusive Until You Give Your Best Seed. For You To Be Able To Receive All Your Requests, You Must First Be Prepared To Pay Any Price By Giving Anything God Wants You To.
What You Are Prepared To Give Determines The Extent To Which God Is Compelled To Give To You In Return. Are You Ready To Pay The Ultimate Sacrifice? Sacrificial Giving Never Goes Unrewarded. After Jesus Laid Down His Life For The Sins Of The World, He Was Rewarded With The Name Above Every Other Name (Philippians 2:8-11). Similarly, After Abraham Demonstrated His Love For God, The Lord Swore To Bless Abraham And His Children Beyond Measure, Promising To Multiply His Generations Like The Sand On The Seashore. What Are You Doing To Prove Your Love For God Today?
Key Point:
Every Act Of Love Towards God Is A Seed Sown On The Best Soil, Which Will Definitely Generate A Great Harvest Of Love.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends

Psalms_19-14: Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer
Job_19-25: For I know that my Redeemer lives
Thank You Jesus
Ruth 4:15
And may he be to you a restorer of life and a nourisher of your old age…
Famine impoverished the life of Naomi, an Israelite. But it was the deaths of her husband and two sons that left her completely destitute. (Ruth 1:1–5)Or so she thought, until Boaz, who was a wealthy and close relative, entered her life.
As her kinsman-redeemer, Boaz married Ruth, Naomi’s widowed daughter-in-law. And through that union, Naomi had a grandson. The birth of her grandson gave her a new lease of life, causing the womenfolk in her village to declare that the restorer of life and the nourisher of her old age had come into her life. (Ruth 4:14–16)
Boaz is a picture of Jesus, our Kinsman-Redeemer. Jesus became our kinsman when He was born into this world as one like us. And He became our Redeemer when He paid with His life and blood at the cross to redeem us.
Jesus gave Himself to us as our restorer of life and nourisher of our old age. When the restorer of life is in our lives, what we have lost can be restored. (Joel 2:25−26) And with the nourisher of our old age in us, our bodies can be gloriously renewed even though we advance in our years.
That is why when Moses died at the age of 120, his eyes were not dim and his natural vigor was not diminished. (Deuteronomy 34:7) Caleb, at 85 years old, could still drive out the giants from the land. God had literally nourished his body and made it strong for war. (Joshua 14:11) Sarah was certainly rejuvenated in her old age by God for she was still desirable to a king at the age of 90. (Genesis 20:1–2) God even renewed her womb. She received strength to conceive seed (Hebrews 11:11), giving birth to Isaac in her old age.
Beloved, God is outside of time and your faith in Him brings you into this timeless zone. There, what the years have stolen will be restored. And even as your years increase, you will not grow weak and weary because the restorer of life and nourisher of your old age is in you!
Job_19-25: For I know that my Redeemer lives
Psalms_19-14: Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer

Psalms_107-1: O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever
Psalms_100-4: Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
I Am So Quick To Come To God In Times Of Need
Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men! –(Psalm 107:21)
How like us to forget to give thanks. We are so quick to come to God in times of need. We pray, “Lord, get me out of this” or “Lord intervene” or “Lord, provide for me.”We call on the Lord and then when He answers, we don’t offer up a word of thanks.
Worse yet is when we chalk it up to dumb luck. It reminds me of the guy who was on the roof of a three-story house, nailing down a loose shingle. Suddenly he lost his footing and began to slide. Knowing he was about to fall to his death, he cried out to God, praying, “Help me! Save me! God, don’t let me die! God, do something! Save me!”
Then, as he was nearing the edge of the roof, his belt loop suddenly caught on a nail, which stopped him. This allowed him to grab hold and then climb back up again. Reaching safety, he called out, “It’s okay, God! I got caught on a nail!”
That is how we are sometimes. We say, “Oh, Lord, provide for me. I have this financial need. Lord, You’ve got to come through for me.”
Then the next day, a rebate check for the exact amount arrives in the mail. “It’s okay, Lord,”we say. “The rebate check showed up.”
Do we ever stop and think, however, that God has provided that for us?
Are you giving God the glory for what He has done? We are so quick to ask for His help. But let’s remember to give Him the praise when He comes through. We should be as definite in returning thanks as we are in requesting help. Far too often we call on God in times of crisis, but we don’t follow through with our thanks.
Psalms_113-3: From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD’S name is to be praised
Psalms_139-14: I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

Power Of Praise
Psalms_9-1: I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.
Text: Act 16:25-26
25 And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them. 26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.
Psalms_98-4: Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise .Thank You Jesus
Introduction:
In Psalm 24:1the Bible tells us that, “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.”
He owns everything and He doesn’t need anything from men except thanksgiving and praise. Praise means uplifting the name of God and giving Him all the glory.
Psalms_63-3: Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
Why do we need to praise the Lord?
1. Praise brings down the glory of God Psalm 89:1
“I will sing of the mercies of the Lord for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.”
2. It is God’s command.
3. God inhabits the praise of His people. 1 Samuel 2:2
“There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.”
4. Praise provokes direct blessings from God. (Psalm 50:23)
“He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors Me; And to him who orders his way aright I shall show the salvation of God.”
Psalms_113-3: From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD’S name is to be praised
Psalm 103:1-22
Praise the Lord, my soul!
All my being, praise his holy name!
2 Praise the Lord, my soul,
and do not forget how kind he is.
3He forgives all my sins
and heals all my diseases.
4 He keeps me from the grave
and blesses me with love and mercy.
5He fills my life[b] with good things,
so that I stay young and strong like an eagle.
6The Lord judges in favor of the oppressed
and gives them their rights.
7He revealed his plans to Moses
and let the people of Israel see his mighty deeds.
8The Lord is merciful and loving,
slow to become angry and full of constant love.
9He does not keep on rebuking;
he is not angry forever.
10He does not punish us as we deserve
or repay us according to our sins and wrongs.
11As high as the sky is above the earth,
so great is his love for those who honor him.
12As far as the east is from the west,
so far does he remove our sins from us.
13 As a father is kind to his children,
so the Lord is kind to those who honor him.
14He knows what we are made of;
he remembers that we are dust.
15As for us, our life is like grass.
We grow and flourish like a wild flower;
16 then the wind blows on it, and it is gone—
no one sees it again.
17 But for those who honor the Lord, his love lasts forever,
and his goodness endures for all generations
18of those who are true to his covenant
and who faithfully obey his commands.
19 The Lord placed his throne in heaven;
he is king over all.
20 Praise the Lord, you strong and mighty angels,
who obey his commands,
who listen to what he says.
21 Praise the Lord, all you heavenly powers,
you servants of his, who do his will!
22 Praise the Lord, all his creatures
in all the places he rules.
Praise the Lord, my soul!
Psalms_139-14: I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
5. Praise moves God to action Psalm 107:15-16
“Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder.”
6. Praise brings down God’s awesome presence Revelation 4:11
“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.”
7. Praise makes you get the best from God. Psalm 48:14
“For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death”

Pastor D K Olukoya, Mountain Of Fire And Miracle Ministries, Power Must Change Hands Prayer Programme
Victory Over Inherited Patterns And Collective Captivity (2) Confession –Psalm 91 1. Every decision, vow or promise made by my forefathers, contrary to my divine destiny, loose your hold by fire, in the name of Jesus. 1B.Every legal ground that ancestral or guardian spirits have in my life, be destroyed by the blood of Jesus. 2.Every generational curse of God, resulting from the sin of idolatry on my forefathers, loose your hold, in the name of Jesus. 3.Every ancestral evil altar prospering against me, be dashed against the Rock of Ages, in the name of Jesus. 4.Every ancestral placental manipulation of my life, be reversed, in the name of Jesus. 5.Every evil ancestral life pattern, designed for me through vows, promises and covenants, be reversed, in the name of Jesus. 6.Every hold of any sacrifice ever offered in my family or on my behalf, I break your power in my life, in the name of Jesus. 7.Any ancestral blood shed of animals, or human beings affecting me, loose your hold by the blood of Jesus. 8. Any curse placed on my ancestral line by anybody cheated, maltreated or at the point of death, break now, in the name of Jesus. 9.Every garment of ancestral infirmity, disease, sickness, untimely death, poverty, disfavor, dishonor, shame and failure at the edge of miracles, passed down to my generation, be roasted by fire, in the name of Jesus. 10.Every evil ancestral river flowing down to my generation, I cut you off, in the name of Jesus. 11.Every evil ancestral habit and weakness of moral failures manifesting in my life, loose your grip and release me now, in the name of Jesus. 12.Any power from my family background, seeking to make a shipwreck of my life, be destroyed by the fire of God, in the name of Jesus. 13. Every rage and rampage of ancestral and family spirits, resulting from my being born again, be quenched by the liquid fire of God, in Jesus’ name. 14. Any ancestral power frustrating any area of my life in order to discourage me from following Christ, receive multiple destruction, in the name of Jesus. 15. Every ancestral chain of slavery binding my people from prospering in life, you are broken in my life by the hammer of God, in the name of Jesus. 16. The height nobody has attained in my generation, I will reach, in the name of Jesus. 17. I recover every good thing stolen by ancestral evil spirits from my forefathers, my immediate family and myself, in the name of Jesus. 18. Every ancestral embargo, be lifted; and let good things begin to break forth in my life and in my family, in the name of Jesus. 19.I release myself from any inherited bondage, in the name of Jesus. 20. Blood of Jesus, flush out from my system, every inherited satanic deposit, in the name of Jesus. 21. I release myself from the grip of any problem transferred into my life from the womb, in the name of Jesus. 22. O God arise, and uproot anything You did not plant, inside the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries. 23.O God, let the fire of revival, fall upon the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, in the name of Jesus. 24. O God, let the power of peace and progress, overshadow this nation, in the name of Jesus. 25. O God, arise and give us God-fearing leaders, in the name of Jesus.

Romans_11-33: h, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways!
Choose Wisely, Move Quickly, And You Can Enjoy The Best That God Has
John 15:11-12, “These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.”(KJV)
The story that is commonly referred to as the “Prodigal Son,” is a prefect example of why delayed decisions create great stress and potential destruction.
When this young man decided to leave his father, taking his inheritance with him, he had no idea what his future would hold. He found out quickly…good times do not last forever. After running out of money, no friends in sight, and delaying his decision to return home, he suffered unnecessarily.
The father had been waiting on him from the moment he departed. He had been waiting for his return but the young man continued to delay, feeling unworthy and unaccepted. Once he came to the end of himself and rose from his desperate condition, he went to the father and the father was running to meet him.
Restoration manifested and the boy’s life was intact and he had a future. Do not delay righteous decisions. Choose wisely, move quickly, and you can enjoy the best that God has.
2-Chronicles_7-14: If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land

Isaiah_55-8: For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD
God Loves Me, And He Is Always Looking Out For My Eternal Benefit
For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! –(2 Corinthians 4:17)
To give thanks, we must realize as Christians that God is in control of all circumstances that surround our lives, both good and bad.
In 2 Corinthians 4:17–18 we are told, “For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.”
The apostle Paul also wrote, “And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love”(Romans 8:38). God loves you, and He is always looking out for your eternal benefit. God is wiser than we are. And if He tells us to not do something, He does so for good reason.
Now, the Devil doesn’t want you to believe that. He would whisper in your ear, “God hates you. God wants to ruin your life. All those rules in the Bible are just there to make life miserable. You Christians serve an oppressive God who doesn’t want you to have any fun.”
What a bunch of nonsense. I’ve lived apart from Christ. I’ve had the so-called fun this world has to offer, and it wasn’t fun at all. I’ve also found that a life with Christ is a life of fulfillment and purpose.
We must realize that God loves us and is always looking out for our eternal benefit, even if what we are presently going through is difficult.
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

Only Let Us Follow
Whither Ho Doth Lead,

For The Sheep He Bled;
Every Lamb Is Sprinkled
With The Blood He Shed:
Then On Each He Setteth
His Own Secret Sign:
‘They That Have My Spirit,
‘These,” Saith He, ‘Are Mine.”
Jesus Is Our Shepherd;
Guarded By His Arm,
Though The Wolves May Raven,
None Can Do Us Harm:
When We Tread Death’s Valley,
Dark With Fearful Gloom,
We Will Fear No Evil,Victors Over The Tomb. Amen!

Proverbs_3-6: In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths
There Is A Path That Leads To God.
All Others Go Astray;
Narrow But Pleasant Is The Road
And Christians Love The Way.
It Leads Straight Through This World Of Sin,
And Dangers Must Be Passed
But Those Who Boldly Walk Therein
Will Get To Heaven At Last.
How Shall An Infant Pilgrim
Dare
This Dangerous Path To Tread?
For On The Way’s Many Asnare
For Youthful Travellers Spread
While The Broad Road, Where Thousand Go,
Lies Near And Opens Fair;
And Many Turn Aside, I Know.
To Walk With Sinners There.
But Lest My Feeble Steps Should Slide.
Or Wander From Thy Way,
Lord, Condescend To Be My Guide,
And I Shall Never Stray.
Then I May Go Without Alarm
And Trust His Word OF Old
“The Lambs, He’ll Gather With His Arm,
And Lead Them To The Fold,”
Thus I May Safely Venture Through
Beneath My Shepherd’s Care;
And Keep The Gate Of Heaven In View,
Till I Shall Enter There.
Amen!

What Is Life? In Simplistic Terms, We Can Define Life As The Opposite Of Death. When You Travel To A Far Country, Say For A Period Of Three Months, You Will Experience A Temporary Separation Between You And The People, Things And Locations You Are Familiar With. But When Death Occurs, It Permanently Separates You From The Things You Love, From Your Loved Ones And From The Places You Are Familiar With. God Gave Jesus To Us To Give Us Life, And To Destroy The One Who Had The Power Of Death – The Devil (Hebrews 2:14). For This Reason, Wherever The Process Of Death Has Been Activated, Jesus Can Terminate It And Restore Life Fully. In John 11:25, He Declared Himself To Be The Resurrection And The Life. God’s Gift To Us In The Person Of Jesus Shows How Much God Loves Us – To The Point Of Giving Us The Gift Of Life (John 3:16). With Jesus, Death Cannot Permanently Take Hold Of You (1 Corinthians 15:54).
Also, Jesus Came So That We Would Not Die Financially. To Be Financially Dead Is To Be Financially Bankrupt. Have You Experienced This In Your Business? The Lord Will Bring Your Finances Back To Life. Jesus Became Poor So That You Can Be Financially Free (2 Corinthians 8:9). Because Of The Price Jesus Has Paid, Financial Freedom Is Yours From Today! Jesus Is Our Shepherd So That We Would Not Lack Anything Good (Psalm 23:1). In Addition, Jesus Was Given So That We Might Not Die Mentally. A Mentally Dead Fellow Is One Who Has Lost Control Of His Or Her Mind. 2 Timothy 1:7 Says: “For God Has Not Given Us The Spirit Of Fear; But Of Power, And Of Love, And Of A Sound Mind.”
Even For The Mentally Sick, Jesus Can Restore The Intellect. You Can Regain Your Mental Wholeness. Whatever Is Wrong With You Mentally, The Lord Will Put Right Today In Jesus’ Name.
Moreover, Jesus Was Given To Us So That We Can Have A Permanent Relationship With The Almighty God For The Rest Of Our Lives. Through Jesus, You Have Access To Your Heavenly Mansion After Your Sojourn On Earth. This Is One Reason Why You Must Not Break The Relationship Between The Lord And Yourself. Nothing On Earth Is Worth Separating You From Christ. Never Allow Anything, No Matter How Alluring, To Break You Off From The Love Of Christ. He Was Given Generally For Everyone But Specifically For You. Ensure You Respond Positively To God’s Love So That You Can Maximally Enjoy The Benefits Of Knowing Him. It Is Well With You.

Jesus, we look to Thee.
Thy promised presence claim;
Thou in the midst of us shalt be, Assembled in Thy name.
Thy name salvation is,
Which here we come to pride; Thy name is life, and health, and peace,
And everlasting love.
Not in the name of pride,
Or selfishness we meet;
From nature’s paths we turn aside,
And worldly thoughts forget.
We meet, the grace to take
Which Thou hast freely given;
We meet on earth for Thy dear sake, That we may meet in heaven.
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ

Ephesians_1-3. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
Hear the footsteps of Jesus.
He is now passing by,
Bearing balm for the wounded, Healing all who apply;
As He spake to the sufferer
Who lay at the pool,
He is saying this moment,
“Wilt thou be made whole?”
Psalms_98-4: Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise .Thank You Jesus
Wilt thou be made whole? Wilt thou be made whole? Oh come, weary sufferer, Oh come, sin-sick soul; See the life-stream is flowing, See the cleansing waves roll, Step into the current and thou shalt be whole.
Colossians_2-6: As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him
’Tis the voice of that Savior,
Whose merciful call
Freely offers salvation
To one and to all;
He is now beckoning to Him
Each sin tainted soul,
And lovingly asking,
“Wilt thou be made whole?”
Are you halting and struggling, Overpowered by your sin,
While the waters are troubled
Can you not enter in?
Lo, the Savior stands waiting To strengthen your soul;
He is earnestly pleading,
“Wilt thou be made whole?”
Blessed Savior, assist us
To rest on Thy Word;
Let the soul healing power
On us now be out-poured; Wash away every sin spot,
Take perfect control,
Say to each trusting spirit,
“Thy faith makes thee whole.”
Romans_8-1:There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit

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
Message
John_14-6: Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me
The desire and plan of God is for all His children to be deliverance ministers (Mark 16:17). He wants us to exercise His dominion on earth, so that if demons are obstructing the lives, destinies and progress of anybody, when they meet anyone of us, they would be freed. However, only very few believers are actively doing this. Any believer who wants to walk in the reality of the plan of God concerning casting out demons must have the knowledge of some basic truths. First and foremost, they must have an intimate knowledge of the Great Deliverer – the Lord Jesus Christ. The closer you move to Jesus and know Him, the more grace you will derive from Him to cast out devils, heal the sick, raise the dead, and more. (Daniel 11:32).
What are the things you need to know about Jesus? You need to know the power in His Name. Our Bible reading teaches that Jesus Christ has a Name to which everything and everyone must bow. Some ministers have fallen into error because they have gained so much popularity and have tasted the anointing of the Holy Ghost. Because they have been used of God several times to perform miracles, they are now close to casting out devils in their own names! We are told to command demons to go in the Name of Jesus and not by any other name. If you ever use your name, you will get into trouble with God and with demons. If you are now using your name to cast out demons, you are becoming another Jesus and preaching another gospel. Know that this act carries a curse (Galatians 1:9). Even Paul, with all his anointing and experiences of the supernatural, continued to cast out demons in the Name of Jesus Christ (Acts 16:16-18). A man attended a program one day and instead of being delivered, his problem was compounded.
He was loaded with demons, so much so that he could not stand, sit or walk: he just lay down. When he was brought to us, I commanded him to kneel for prayers, but he said he could not. I commanded him again, and he asked me, “In whose name?” I said “In the Name of Jesus.” He answered, “Oh, that one is different”, and he complied. After prayers, I said to him “Stand up and go home.” But he replied that he could not stand. So I commanded him again to obey. He then asked “In whose name?”I replied “In the Name of Jesus.”He said again, “That one is different”, and he stood up. Then I commanded him to go home, take his bath and be normal again. Once again he asked “In whose name?” I said “In the Name of Jesus.” He answered once more “That one is different”, and he obeyed. Praise God for the power in the Name of Jesus!
Hebrews_12-2: Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God
Key Point
Some ministers are gradually moving the shine away from Jesus to themselves, thereby treading on very dangerous grounds. Be warned!
Acts_16-31: And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house

So when he attacks you by saying, “Look at that small sum in your bank account! How are you going to pay the bills?” stand your ground. Declare, “I am not trying to be rich. I am already blessed in Christ!” It doesn’t matter how much you have in the bank. You are richly supplied because you are in Christ. And as the need arises, the supply will be there if you believe it.
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
It is the same with healing. The devil will try to attack you with symptoms in your body. He will try to put pain in your body, and make you feel weak here and there, so that you think that you are still sick. He is trying to make you believe that you don’t have your healing. That is the time to be conscious of Jesus’ finished work and declare, “I am not trying to get healed, I am healed! I am standing on the victory ground which Jesus has given me!”

Just Stop Everything and Take a Love Time-Out with CHRIST JESUS
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends
John 15:13
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
“As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.
John 15:9
“As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love.
In your workplace, you probably take coffee breaks, lunch breaks, tea breaks and definitely toilet breaks. Why not do the same in your spiritual life—take time out for breaks, especially Time-Out with CHRIST JESUS?
What is Time-Out CHRIST JESUS? It is the time you take to enjoy and feed on the love of Jesus for you. At any time during the day, wherever you are, find a quiet spot and feed on the love of Jesus. Just sit down and talk to Him. Say to Him, “Thank You, Jesus, for loving me. Nothing is going to happen to me that You don’t already know about. Jesus, when I could not save myself, You died for me. You gave up Your life for me. What else will You not do for me!”
Such love breaks are typified in the Old Testament by Aaron the high priest and his sons eating the breast of the animal sacrificed. (Leviticus 7:31) The breast of the animal speaks of the love of Jesus. Today, you are a priest to God. (Revelation 1:6) So spend time feeding on the love of Jesus for you, and see yourself nourished, strengthened and sustained by His love.
Jesus is our High Priest today
This means that His food is in loving us. He enjoys loving us and is also “nourished” by His love for us.
John_15-12: My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you
But do not forget that the breast was roasted by fire (Leviticus 7:35), which speaks of God’s judgment on Jesus as He hung on the cross because He was carrying our sins. So as you feed on Jesus’ love for you, see Him loving you at the cross. When things around you are not going well, do not allow the devil to say to you, “If God loves you, how come these things are happening to you?” My friend, interpret God’s love for you based on the cross, not on your present circumstances.
John_15-16: Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you
During the day, when you are hard at work, when busyness sets in, when problems pile up or when discouragement comes, just stop everything and take a love time-out with Christ Jesus! Let Jesus love you. Let yourself enjoy being loved by Him. Lean on His bosom, abide in His love and be nourished by His love for you!

1-John_3-16-2: Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
As a New York skyscraper went up, hundreds paused daily to glance up at it. One day they watched a ponderous metal beam go up to take its place in the steel skeleton. As the girder came near, a workman leaned out from the sixteenth floor to seize it. The spectators gasped as he lost his balance and fell. Desperately, he clutched the girder’s end with arms and legs.
The ground crew stopped the hoisting engine, but the man’s weight at one end began to tilt the beam to a vertical position, which would eventually cause him to lose his grip and fall to his death.
With swift decision, another worker on the same floor, seeing his friend’s predicament, leaped through space and landed on the other end, where his weight leveled the beam. Amid the applause of the crowd, both men were safely lowered to the street.
Every day people around us lose their balance on moral and spiritual questions – they consider having an affair with a co-worker, taking company funds, lying to close a deal, toying with drugs and alcohol.
Wrong decisions will hurt them and their families for years and could cost them their souls in Eternity. They need friends who are interested in helping them keep their balance, by leading exemplary lives, by sacrificial living, by speaking a word for Christ. Here on this earth, no one will applaud, but it will be worth it all when we receive the approval of the Master. (1 Corinthians 4:5)
Today! Someone needs you to be the hands and feet of Jesus!

2-Corinthians_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
Life is filled with mysteries. Life will not give to you what you expect. Life will only give to you what you demand. By the reason of the fall, there is an adversary at work all over the nations of the world. People will contend for the things that belong to you. You will see people fight to take away from you what is rightfully yours. Knowing this you have got to make up your mind, guard your loins and ensure that you don’t sit by and expect that things would fall on you like a bag of cherry.
We live in a world that is filled with injustice and all kinds of mischief. Oftentimes, things are not as straight as they appear. You must understand these facts. However the mysteries of life can be unravelled when we apply kingdom principles. The kingdom of God overrules all other kingdoms. All other kingdoms are subject to the kingdom of God.
1-John_4-4: Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
As a child of God, you don’t need to be afraid. By the reason of your connection to God you are already a victorious person. 1 John 4:4 tells us “Ye are of God, little Children and have overcome them, because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world”. You are a world overcomer. You are a world system overcomer and this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith. We always win; it does not matter what the enemy does.
We are already declared the winner because Jesus died for us. He descended to hell; He rose triumphant over death, hell and grave. He is sitting at the right hand of the Father Almighty. He spoilt principalities and powers and made a show of them openly. So we are already winners. But we have got to step out in faith and act like the winner that we are. God wants us to always put on a far-above – mentality. Far-above is where Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father. Jesus is the head of the church. As He is in heaven, so are we here on earth. There is no material for failure in you. You can always win in the challenges of life.

Luke_19-10: For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
Gang violence is increasing in the United States as activity spreads from inner cities to rural communities. While that may sound alarming, some in Washington state see it as an opportunity.
“I love going to the jail. Like that’s where I really feel God’s pleasure,” Hoke explained.
“They were on to what Jesus was doing very quickly. And I just liked them; they were just like my best theological conversation partners,” he continued. “They’d never provide churchy, dumb answers, and their language is full of profanity, but very honest.”
Hoke has served as a jail chaplain for 10 years. He found an authenticity in the jails that eluded him in church.
“I was soaked in biblical language growing up,” Hoke confessed. “I was a worship leader, but I wanted to find Jesus and touch Jesus, not just sing songs about it.”
Matthew_9-37: Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few
Looking at the beautiful Skagit Valley with its rolling hills and miles of farmland, it’s hard to imagine gang activity plagues the community.
“Gangs can happen in any community, anywhere,” Lt. Chris Cammock, with the Mount Vernon Police Department, told CBN News.
“In the early 90s, we saw our types of crimes changing. We saw them straying away from, say, property crimes to more violent crimes, like assaults, drive-by shootings, and things like that,” he said.
Cammock points out that Skagit County is on the I-5 corridor, running from Mexico to Canada.
“Some individuals are trying to leave the gang lifestyle, so they come here; some are branching out to do their criminal activities in areas that they’re not known for,” he explained.
Migrant workers who come here for seasonal work often stay. Their children can have a hard time fitting in.
“There was a lot of racism going on,” Jose Garcia, known as “Neaners,” recalled. “Like, kids used to make fun of me.”
“And so I think that’s kind of pushed me to, like, ‘Yo, I don’t want to mess with these guys; these are not the people that I want to be around,’ and I started hanging around with other crowds,” he said.
Neaners, a charming man in his early 30s, has gang tattoos covering his face and neck. He says he was just 8 years old when he started hanging out with members of one of the most violent gangs on the West Coast.
They gave him the name “Neaners,” a slang word for “baby.” Neaners was swept up by the gang lifestyle. He committed dozens of crimes, spending 20 of the next 25 years behind bars.
“I didn’t have no feeling; I just didn’t care; I’d get back out and be right back to doing the same thing,” Neaners recalled. “And everyone would be just like, ‘Man, that boy’s heartless.'”
Hard Love To Hardcore Bangers
Mark_8-36: For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
Introducing gang members to Jesus might seem like a daunting task. But these lost sheep are uniquely equipped to hear the voice of their shepherd.
“They understand Jesus’ mode of operation, that Jesus had kind of like this grassroots posse, on the margins of Galilee, and He called people to follow Him,” Hoke explained.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
“Gangs excel at gathering the marginalized, and the lonely,” he continued. “They knew how to find the lonely and the broken lives, men and women in this valley. And so they brought me to them.”
Hoke said he was never intimidated by the gang members.
“I just loved these guys; it just felt like a love adventure,” he explained. “We’d pray, and these guys would pour out their hearts, and this is the kind of friendship I’d always been looking for.”
Hoke and Neaners grew close, exchanging hundreds of letters when Neaners was incarcerated. Neaners wrote of reaching out to the Lord from the depths of solitary confinement.
“I used to always yell at God, and stuff, just be like, ‘Yo, this is messed up; why You do this to me?'” he recalled. “Like all these things, and I didn’t know as I was doing that I was building a friendship with Him.”
“You know, He was actually seeing the real me, my inner heart, instead of this tough, macho guy that everybody else sees as, ‘Oh, this guy’s the gang leader, this guy’s this — ‘No, He seen something deeper. He seen the kid that was just yearning for His love, you know?” he said.
Hoke recalled, “When his heart started to change, and the relationship started going deeper, and he started having more hope, he said, ‘I want to meet my little girl. Can you help her come visit me?'”
A Second Chance
After months of red tape, Hoke drove 5-year-old Adelita four hours to meet her father. That kindness and self-sacrifice proved to be a breakthrough for Neaners.
He said he cried for the first time in 15 years.
As Hoke writes in his book, Wanted: A Spiritual Pursuit Through Jail, Among Outlaws, and Across Borders, “It was not misery that made (Neaners) crack and tear, but mercy. It is God’s kindness, Saint Paul wrote in a prison letter, that leads you to repentance.”
Three years later, Neaners walked out of prison for what he hopes will be the last time. He’s engaged to be married and helping to raise two daughters. CBN News visited the couple in his modest home, looking out over the valley.
“I’ve never been there for these girls who really need me, and I never had a father, so I’m going to be something that I’ve always wanted,” Neaners marvelled. “I always thought I’d be a gangster my whole life, you know? Active, out there gang banging or locked up. I never thought it’d be this good.”
Gang activity in the Skagit Valley has decreased in recent years, well below the national average. Police attribute the drop to collaboration with the community.
They are especially encouraged when someone like Neaners turns his life around.
“I think when you have somebody that is at a more, a leadership or seen in the hierarchy of a gang as being towards the top, making a choice to leave, I think that sends a very big message within the gang subculture,” Lt. Cammock explained.
“To have someone try to believe in God is kind of hard,” Neaners admitted. “But to believe in someone like, ‘Yo, this dude’s doing it.’ And, you know, ‘Hey, we want what he’s got.’ And so I’m just trying to give a little hope with my life.”

John_11-25: Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live
Many people have made significant impacts on our world. But no one has had a greater effect than Jesus, whose birth, death, and resurrection have been transforming lives for 2,000 years.
John_14-6: Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me
Around the world, Christ’s name marks those who are His followers, going back to the earliest days of the church. “When [Barnabas] had found [Saul], he brought him to Antioch. So it was that for a whole year they assembled with the church and taught a great many people. And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch” (Acts 11:26).
Acts_16-31: And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house
Those who bear Christ’s name identify with Him because we have been changed by His love and grace. We declare to the world that He has made an eternal difference in our lives and we long for that in the hearts of others too.
Father, give me the grace and wisdom to honor You. May my life be so marked by the person of Christ that His great name—and salvation—will be embraced by others as well, Amen!
May God Bless Nigeria, America And Israel And Take Care Of Us; May God Make His Face Shine Upon Us, And Be Gracious To Us; May The Lord Lift Up His Countenance Upon Us, And Give Us Peace, In Jesus Christ Name, We Pray! Amen!
May The Grace The Lord Jesus Christ, And The Love Of God, And The Fellowship Of The Holy Spirit Be With You All. Amen!
We are not of them that look back unto perdition. Paul says we are of them that believe to the saving of the soul. We don’t look back. In Luke 9:62, the scripture says “. . . No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God”.
You are not fit for the kingdom of God if you begin to look back. There are terrors and problems out there but don’t look back. There are challenges out there to overwhelm you but don’t look back. It is time to move forward. Paul says we have not yet attained nor made perfect but this one thing we do, forgetting the things that are behind, we reach forth for the things that are before we press for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:12-14). These are days of Gods power. Don’t go back, move forward.
Jesus, for the joy that was set before him, endured the pains of the cross (Hebrews 12:2). He endured the cross and the opposition of sinners. It was painful but he endured it because of the joy that was set ahead of him. There is joy ahead of every cross road. All you need do is to keep going. The joy shall be made manifest. Weeping may endure for the night but joy cometh in the morning (Psalms 30:5).
We have a cloud of witnesses that are waiting for us at the banisters of heaven. No wonder in his departure commission, He said “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature”(Mark 16:15). Keep on moving forward. Don’t stop! No matter where you are, no matter the challenge facing you, don’t look back. I declare unto you today that you will not be defeated neither will you be overwhelmed. Your dreams and expectations shall materialise. You will realise your goal and arrive at your destiny. You will not go under in Jesus Christ name, Amen!

Ephesians_6-1: Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right
A wise friend once said to me, “If you give your kids only what they deserve, you will rob them of a healthy life. Don’t give them what they deserve; give them what they need. Just like Jesus does for us!”
Deuteronomy_6-7: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
Jesus doesn’t respond to us based on what we deserve to get. He responds based on what we need. He provides for our needs even though we are undeserving. He died for us while we were still in rebellion against him. He allows us to grow. He doesn’t force us to clean up our act before he comes into our lives. He meets our needs and gives us the grace and the space to grow.
When I thought about how difficult it was to see my kids develop some troubling characteristics, even belligerence and rebellion, I suddenly saw the parallel with our Father God and all of his children. Every one of us is rebellious. We pout. We shout “No!” in our spirits. We sneak around doing what we know we ought not to do. And yet He accepts us wherever we are. He refuses to abandon us or give us what we so richly deserve; he pours great rivers of (amazing) grace into our lives. As David marveled,
Thinking about the grace of God will help you become a grace giver to your children. Their imperfections help you to see your own. Accepting them as they are helps you to taste the wonder of how God accepts you as you are.

And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
Jesus my Saviour, on Calvary’s
tree
Paid the great debt, and my soul
He set free,
Oh, it was wonderful – How

Dying, for me, for me!
Dying, for me ! for me!.. (2ce)
Oh, it was wonderful – how
could it be?
Dying, for me!… for me!
Jesus my Saviour, the same as of
old,
While I was wandering afar from the fold,
Gently and long did He plead with my soul,
Calling for me, for me!
Calling for me!. for me !.. (2ce)
Gently and long did He plead with my soul,
Calling for me, for me!
Jesus my Saviour shall come from on high
Sweet is the promise as weary years fly;
Oh, shall see Him descending the shy,
Coming, for me, for me!
Coming for me!.. for me!. (2ce)
Oh, I shall see Him descending the sky,
Coming for me, for me!

God sees reality like no one else sees it. He sees the perfection of His Son’s finished work in your life. By one offering of Himself at the cross, Jesus has perfected you forever! (Hebrews 10:14) You have been made the righteousness of God in Christ. (2 Corinthians 5:21) And you will never find any spot in this righteousness that Jesus died to give you.
So God wants you to see yourself righteous—all fair and spotless in Christ. Every day, be conscious of your righteousness in Christ. Say, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ. There is no spot in me whom He has perfected with His blood.” When you do that, you are honoring Jesus and His finished work.
If you are conscious of your sins, then you are not honoring the work of Christ. You may think that you are being humble or holy by being sin-conscious. But do you know that the Bible calls sin-consciousness an “evil conscience”?
Hebrews 10:21–22 tells us that since we have Jesus as our High Priest, “let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience”. What does the writer of Hebrews mean by “an evil conscience”? If you read the beginning of the same chapter, you will find that he is talking about a “consciousness of sins”. (Hebrews 10:2) Paul calls it a “conscience seared with a hot iron”. (1 Timothy 4:2) The Greek word for “seared” here is kauteriazo, and it means to carry about with you a perpetual consciousness of sin.
So don’t carry with you an evil or seared conscience. Your lifetime of sins has already been punished fully in the body of Jesus at the cross. Be conscious, instead, of your perfection and righteousness in Christ. Because of what Jesus has done for you, you can boldly declare, “I am all fair. There is no spot in me!”
