Why Are You Doubting God? When All Hope Is Lost, God Will Prove Himself As God. God Is Never Late


James_1-17: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning

James_1-17: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning

“And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.”

Genesis 17:1

When God made a promise to Abraham, He could have given him a child immediately but he wanted to prove Himself God in the situation. But Abraham not understanding the Almightiness of God went on to produce Ishmael by his own plan. In the next thirteen years, God never spoke to Abraham. God left him alone. How dare you think God’s promise will not come to pass? Why are we taking laws into our hands? Why are you doubting God? Thirteen years later, God came to Abraham and introduced Himself as “El-shadai” meaning He is God that He is. God that does what He wants when he wills. He said to Abraham; walk before me and be perfect. And He waited till Abraham became a hundred years and Sarah was ninety years old.

2-Corinthians_12-9: And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me

2-Corinthians_12-9: And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me

When all hope was lost, God came to prove Himself as God. He visited Sarah as He said and did unto her as He has spoken (Genesis 21:1). This year, God is giving us an assurance that what He has started is guaranteed to be perfected. He will surely perfect everything concerning you. Philippians 1:6 gives the confidence of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect

God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect

No, you will not end in regret. If no one testifies, you will testify. The lines will fall for you in pleasant places. The God we serve is never late. He will do it! You will celebrate. You will dedicate your babies and you will dedicate your houses, cars and companies. Get ready to jubilate. You have been on the floor for too long. God is putting you as the candlestick where you are going to shine because it your time to shine. You are entering the big league. You will be signing in billions, welcome to the Big league. It will happen by God’s supernatural intervention. Your Heavens are open. Walk now into your abundance.

You Will Have Many Reasons To Celebrate This Year And There Is Nothing The Devil Can Do About It


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_113-3: From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD’S name is to be praised

“He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill; That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.”

Psalms 113:7-8 (KJV)

When last did you meditate on this God? Rahab was a professional prostitute known in the city of Jericho but when she had an encounter with God, He blessed her and blessed all her kindred. And God made her a princess out of a prostitute. In the book of Matthew chapter 1, in the genealogy of Jesus Christ, you will see Rahab‘s name. And even Tamar, Bathsheba, Ruth (the Moabitess) in the lineage of Jesus. God delivered them from their idolatry and evil background into the lineage of His dear son. If He can do that, why are you writing yourself off? Colossians 1:13 says “Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: Your reproach ends today.

Galatians_5-22: But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith

Galatians_5-22: But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith

This year will answer to you as if you are the only one permitted to enter the goodness of the year. God will crown the year with His goodness and your path will drop fatness (Psalm 65:11) anything that will not give you joy will pass by you. Only good is permitted to come by you. Our God is good and He does good and you can tell what He has in stock for you because you are His son and His thought towards you are thought of good not of evil to give an expected end. He who spared not His only son but freely gave Him for you, how can He not also freely give you all things? (Romans 8:32).

Psalms_23-5: Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Psalms_23-5: Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

You will have many reasons to celebrate and there is nothing the devil can do about it. He has been trying to rob you of your testimonies but he will not succeed. No weapon that is formed against you shall prosper and every tongue that rises up in judgment against you shall be condemned. This year, your mouth will testify. Only good is your expectation. I will see you at the top.

If God spared not His son Jesus Christ, why will He keep back what He has prepared for you?


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.

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.

“He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?”

Romans 8:32

If God spared not His son, why will he keep back what He has prepared for you? So the question today is “Are you preparing for good or evil? When you prepare for good, you will attract good. Be a good magnet. When you wake up in the morning, confess good and expect good. The bible says in Proverbs 23:18 For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.” Good will knock at your door. Only goodness is permitted to follow you. No witch can hold you down. Before the witch arrives, God would have already completed everything about you. No witch can take God unawares. God always goes ahead of the enemy. Isaiah 45:2 says “I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:” You didn’t start it. God started it and He will not abandon you half way. God knows the enemy will show up but He who has begun a good work in you will complete it.

God does not abandon His project. There is no room for surprise from the pit of hell. He completed you before He started. When you see people stand tall in spiritual things, it is because of what they know. Daniel 11:32 tells us that the people that do know their God shall be strong and do exploit. So stand! Dig into the word of God and know Him, then stand tall in Him.

Whatever your situation, understand that you are not alone and you cannot be abandoned. God is by you, with you and for you. God began it; it was not your idea. If He began it, He will finish it. So go to bed and trust God who began this work to perfect it because He is God and God alone. Don’t bother about the witches, you are in Christ. Before they can get to you, they have to go through God and Christ. Fear not, because you are in Christ. If you don’t stand your ground, they will make a mess of your faith.

So much occultism is parading our nation today, so believers must stand their ground for God and He will show you up as His child. Child of God, your tomorrow is bright and your destiny is colourful. Enjoy the goodness of the day. I bless you today.

Walk in the Light ~ CHRISTian poetry by deborah ann ~ Photo Doorpost Verses

Jesus is my closet Friend,
He goes with me everywhere
with Him there is always
a peaceful atmosphere.

We never fight or argue,
we agree on everything
with Him always at my side
the road is easy traveling.

Some days it gets bumpy,
others, it’s calm and smooth
but, no matter what greets us
Jesus is always there to soothe.

When the sun is shinning,
I know it’s a perfect day . . .
to take a long walk with Him
so together we can pray.

When the skies are stormy,
when darkness is all I see
I believe and I trust Him
to protect and shelter me.

Jesus is my best Friend,
He goes every where I go . . .
when ever we are together
there’s a peaceful, loving glow!

Is It As To The Lord? Sermon And Prayer Point By Pastor E A Adeboye


Pastor E A Adeboye. Open Heavens. RCCG

Pastor E A Adeboye. Open Heavens. RCCG

Memorise:

Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;

Ephesians 6:6

Read: Ephesians 6:5-8

5  Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;

6  Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;

7  With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men:

8  Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.

Message

The story was told of a preacher who went to church one Sunday morning, fully prepared to deliver his sermon, only to find out that the bad weather had prevented members from coming to church except one little boy. This preacher, as the story goes, preached as if the whole auditorium was full of members. After the sermon, the preacher made an altar call and the boy gave his life to Christ that glorious Sunday morning. It was one morning, one preacher, one-member congregation and one convert. That little boy became a world-renowned evangelist.

Today’s Bible reading encourages us to render our service, either in church or outside of church, as to the Lord, not with eyeservice or as men-pleasers. Unfortunately, there are men-pleasers today in Church, who would rather offend God instead of offending the feelings of people, even when this is unscriptural. Such an attitude affects our service to God negatively. It taints our holy service to God. Paul in Romans 12:1 says thus about Christian service:

 “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.”

The work ethics in our church organisations should require little or no supervision. This is one of the first things we were taught when we applied as volunteer workers in church. There is danger in working with eyeservice, because when the one you intend to impress is not around, you will do something else.

Some civil servants short-change themselves when they think that government work is not to be done wholeheartedly as if one’s life depends on it. If you work in any organisation, particularly a government establishment, and you think you can loaf around and still get paid at the end of the month without repercussion, you must have been deceived. The law of natural justice and equity establishes the fact that if your work is worth 50,000 of your country’s currency but you receive 1,000,000, by the time you have spent the last unit of the money, you will realise that the value of what the 1,000,000 obtained is not more than what is obtainable with 50,000.

Prayer Point:

Father, deliver me from eyeservice, and please help me to serve You acceptably from now onwards in Jesus’ Name.

It Is Not Over Yet. Sermon And Prayer Point By Pastor E A Adeboye


Philippians_3-14: I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Philippians_3-14: I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Memorise:

Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.

Philippians 3:12

Read: Philippians 3:10-14

10  That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

11  If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.

12  Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.

13  Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

14  I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Message

The Christian journey is more often than not a long distance race. This is particularly true because of the long life that our Heavenly Father has promised us (Psalm 91:16). We therefore need a lot of patience to run the race. Apostle Paul in today’s Bible reading gives insight on the nature of the race we are engaged in. It is a non-stop marathon. Once you start, you cannot go on sabbatical leave. Because you are already grafted into Jesus Christ once you start the race, you must ensure that you don’t pull yourself away from Him who first ran this race and finished well (Hebrew 12:2).  How do we sustain the tempo and determination to finish well? Paul answers this question in Philippians 3:13-14:

“Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”

Many Christians live in the glory of their past achievements, and this has resulted in their undoing. The various indictments Jesus levelled against the seven Churches in Asia in Revelation 2-3, should be food for thought for all end-time Christians. In the past, when a Christian mistakenly said something that was not untrue but also not 100% true, he quickly corrected himself with an apology. For example, in the days when my father-in-the-Lord was still alive, I remember travelling to Ilesa, a city in south-west Nigeria, and forgetting to buy some oranges along the way as I used to. I remembered after I got to Lagos and quickly bought some in Lagos. I gave them to my father-in-the-Lord and he asked if I bought the oranges on my way. I said “Yes sir”. Immediately, the Holy Spirit rebuked me that I was not telling the whole truth.

I bought them on the way, yes, but not on the way from Ilesa as the old man meant to ask. I quickly corrected myself and he exclaimed “Holy Spirit!” in adoration of the Holy Spirit’s rebuke of love. Today, many children of God tell lies with impunity and they do not feel the pain of lying, even against the Holy Spirit. Their first love is all gone. Be warned that the race is not over yet. Ezekiel 18:24 says:

 “But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.” 

Prayer Request:

Father, please uphold me to the very end of my Christian race.

Death Is Not The End. Sermon And Prayer Point By Pastor E A Adeboye


John_5-24: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life

John_5-24: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life

Memorise:

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

1 Thessalonians 4:14

Read: 1 Corinthians 15:12-19

12  Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?

13  But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:

14  And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

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.

16  For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

17  And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.

18  Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.

19  If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

Message

Everything in this life will come to an end one day. However, the life of a man does not end in death, it continues in eternity, either with God in Heaven or with the devil in the place of torment. Those who believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ and live by the expectation of experiencing the same someday, have the hope of eternal life. The Bible in 1 John 3:2-3 says:

 “Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.”

Jesus Christ promised that He will come back to take us home after preparing a place for us. Here are His words in John 14:2-3:

“In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.”

Those who have this hope in them will conduct themselves in a way that is expected of saints.

 “LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.”

Psalm 15:1-2

This scripture reveals the condition to be met by those who will triumph over death, while Revelation 21:1-7 gives a brief description of the eternal life of bliss awaiting those who give their life to Jesus Christ. But for those who remain resistant to the invitation of Jesus, what awaits them is the second death. This is described in Revelation 21:8:

“But the fearful, the unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”

I pray that an eternity in the Lake of fire will not be your portion in Jesus’ Name.

Prayer Point:

Father, let me find eternal rest in Your kingdom in Jesus’ Name.

Haunted By Your Past? Sermon By Pastor E A Adeboye


1-John_1-9: If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness

1-John_1-9: If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness

Memorise:

And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

1 Corinthians 6:11

Read: Romans 8:1-3

1  There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

2  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

3  For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:

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_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

Message

Some Christians allow their past to haunt them so badly that they have no confidence in their heritage as children of God. Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, is an example of someone who did not allow his past to haunt him or prevent him from fulfilling his destiny. He gave the following testimony about himself in Galatians 1:15-17:

“But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace, To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood. Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.”

One noticeable reason why the past haunts some children of God is their lack of knowledge and understanding of the word of God. It is necessary for every child of God to possess very sound knowledge of who they are in Christ through God’s word. As revealed in our Bible reading, any individual who is born-again is free from every form of condemnation of past sins. The past should therefore not torment you if the reality of this scripture has been received in your spirit. Let us look at this passage very closely and learn one or two truths about our new life in Christ.

Before you can escape the evils of your past life, the first thing you should ascertain is whether or not you are indeed in Christ, because some people are in Church but not in Christ. The evidence of a life in Christ is outlined in 2 Corinthians 5:17:

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”

This new life is not by our power but by the power in the Blood and Spirit of Jesus Christ. The Bible says the Spirit bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God (Romans 8:16).

Part of the cardinal truths distinguishing the Christian faith from all other faiths is the grace which brings salvation to us without imputing our past sins, and the power given to us to live above those past sins. Beloved, if you are still struggling with your past life of sin, you need to check your background. Are you genuinely born-again? If yes, are you still living your past life? If not, your past will not haunt you again. Demolish the bridge that links you with the past and be free.

Action Point:

Cut away from activities, friends and habits of the past, so that you can be free indeed.

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!
