Please accept our thanks in Jesus’ name. Amen!

Almighty God, every one of us here tonight and those who are very far away who can only watch by the internet or by the television, this month, in all our lives, let there be good news. Let it be a month of nothing but good news alone.

Thank You Almighty God, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Amen!

Now, let somebody shout hallelujah.

So, shake hands with about five or six people and say happy New Year brother.

Glory be to God.

And then you may please be seated.

Deuteronomy 7:14.

14 And the Almighty God speaking to someone here tonight and He say “thou shall be blessed above all people; there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle.

15 the Lord will take away form thee all sickness and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee”

Wow! That is good news.

There are some people here tonight, that people have been calling barren, the good news is – it is people who said so, not God.

God says you will not be barren.

And when Jesus says yes, nobody can say no.

So, next time somebody looked at you and say you are barren, tell him you are the one saying so, not God – God says ‘I am not barren‘.

Tell your neighbour, God says, I am not barren.

Physically, I am not barren.

Biologically, I am not barren

Mentally, I am not barren.

Financially, I am not barren

Spiritually, I am not barren.

Who said so?

GOD

And if you believe that it is, let me hear your amen.

Everything about Jesus is good news.

His conception was good news.

When the Angel came to tell His mother that she is going to have a Son in Luke 1:26-33. He told her the Baby you are about to conceive is going to be great – that is good news for someone here already straight away.

The baby you are going to conceive this month shall be the great.

When He was born, and Angels came to announce the birth.

In Luke 2:10-11, the Angel said, we brought you good news, good tidings, of great joy.

His conception – GOOD NEWS.

The announcement of His birth – GOOD NEWS.

When He was going to be introduced to the public, in John 1:29, it was good news.

John said behold the Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world.

GOOD NEWS – The same carrier has come.

When He was going to introduce His ministry to the world, it was GOOD NEWS.

John 2:1-11, He did introduction at a wedding.

And what was it the MC said before that wedding was over?

The MC said, you have kept the best wine until the last.

So, the introduction of the ministry of Jesus Christ says the best is yet to come, which is special good news for me tonight.

Adeboye, your best is yet to come. Chukwuemeka Ogwo! your best is yet to come! Amen!!!!!

Before He went to the Cross, He gave good news to the Disciples.

John 16:33, He said, whatever may be happening, be of good cheer, because I have overcome the world.

In other words, there is good news for someone here tonight, it doesn’t matter what you are going through – All will be well.

On the Cross, He gave good news.

He said, it is finished.

Meaning what?

For somebody here tonight, your days of weeping are over.

On the resurrection morning, it was good news.

Mathew 28:1-6, the Angels said He is alive.

And so, from that moment onward, I can sing:

“I know my redeemer liveth

I know my redeemer liveth

I know my redeemer liveth

He liveth forever more”

(I know)

“I know my redeemer liveth

I know my redeemer liveth

I know my redeemer liveth

He liveth forever more”

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.

I am saying with confidence that for someone here tonight, the good news is your tomorrow will be alright.

Before He ascended to heaven, He gave good news.

Act 1:8, says power is coming – you shall receive power.

Good news for someone here today, your years of weakness are over tonight.

And even after He left, it was good news.

In Act 1:9-11, the Angels said to the Disciples – the said hey, hey, they said don’t worry, you see Him going, He is coming back.

GOOD NEWS to every Christian is that Jesus is coming again.

If you know He is coming again, let me hear you shout hallelujah.

GOOD NEWS for everyone.

But let us begin with those who are trusting God for the fruit of the womb.

Because this is their own special month, the rest of us are just joining in.

1 Samuel 1:9-20 tells us the story of Hannah who had been going to Shiloh for years.

But a particular day, as she was praying, the man of God noticed her, and said to her in verse 17, my little girl, don’t weep anymore because your prayers have been answered.

.

I stand here this evening representing the most High God and I say to all of you who are trusting God for the fruit of the womb, you prayers have been answered.

In Judges 13:1-5,…and then because the Holy Spirit is moving so mightily, I didn’t even have time to comment on the Preacher who preached before me.

That was fantastic, isn’t it?

That shows that God is already on the move even long before I get here.

Glory be to God.

In Judges 13:1-5, an Angel came to a woman who had been barren for a long time, the wife of Manoah, and the Angel said to her, not only are you going to conceive but you son will not be ordinary.

I am decreeing in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, that every child that shall be conceived because of tonight meeting shall be extra-ordinary.

In 1 Samuel 2:20-21, because I can sense in my spirit that when have been saying you will have a son and your son will not be ordinary, your son will be great.

I can sense some people who are saying, Daddy, thank you, but I am not looking for one, I want more than one.

Well! 1 Samuel 2:20-21, the same Eli who said to Hannah that her prayers had been heard, also said to her, you will have more than one.

As a matter of fact she ended with three additional boys and two additional girls.

I don’t know how many you want but as many as you want receive in Jesus’ name.

In 2 King 4:8-17, the Bible tells us about a wealthy woman who had everything except a child.

When the man of God said to her that she will have a son within a year, she didn’t believe.

But in spite of the fact that she didn’t believe, she still had a son

And I am saying to someone here tonight, who is thinking I have been coming for a while, I was here last year, nothing has happened yet.

I have even come to Shiloh hours nothing has happened yet.

In the Name that is above every other name, in spite of your doubt, this month God will answer you.

Why?

Genesis 18:9-14 in the case of Sarah.

When God told her she will have a son, she laughed.

Because she thought it was too late.

There may be one or two people here tonight saying, why they didn’t have a service like this twenty years ago, thirty years ago, when I still have hope.

Why is it that they are now having the service when I am already too old to have a child?

Well, God has heard you, He will make you laugh.

Because He said to Sarah, you are laughing?

He said go ahead laugh.

You will soon discover that with God nothing shall be impossible.

In the Name that is above every other name, your own will not be too difficult for God.

You all know this testimony.

You know the fellow concern.

But there are some of you far away, maybe in Australia, Guinea and so on listening to me, you probably have not heard the testimony, so I share it for you own sake.

There was a sister and there is a sister, she still very much alive, who was barren for so long because of demonic intervention.

And one day the relatives of the husband called him and said stop bordering yourself, your wife can never have a child, because we have taking away the womb.

Well, she came to one Holy Ghost service like this and the word came that ‘there is someone here they told you, you can never have a child, but God asked me to tell you, you have a set of twins’.

And she grabs it.

That month she conceived.

She went to the hospital for test, I think she went for test after about three month because she didn’t believe at the beginning, the Doctor said I don’t know how it can happen but you are pregnant, and I can see a child in your belly.

And the girl said to the Doctor, no no no, you must have got it wrong – not one, two.

The Doctor well said don’t let us argue, I don’t even know how you got one anyway.

You said two; she said two is what my God said.

Okay! Okay!

Two month or so later, she went for another check and the Doctor said ha! I don’t understand this but there are two in there now.

And when she delivered, it was a set of twins – two bouncing girls.

Both of them are alive and well today.

There is someone here today, it doesn’t matter how impossible it may sound, by August next year, you will bring forward your twins.

Now, so, that has settled the case of those trusting God for the fruit of the womb: they have already got their own good news.

But there is good news for the sick.

And what is the good news to the sick?

It shall be well you.

Well, only those who are sick can say amen to that.

Those of you who are not sick, in the mighty name of Jesus you will not be sick.

In Mark 5:25-34, the Bible tells us the story of a woman with the issue of blood, who had been sick for several years, and had been transferred from one Doctor to another for years and instead of getting better she got worse.

But then she came in contact with Jesus.

And like I said Jesus brings good news.

I have told you before; Jesus Christ is the Doctor who never refers a case.

The day she came in contact with Jesus Christ she got her healing.

I am believing God for someone here today even though the Doctor have told you that your options are almost nil now, I have good news for you, the greatest option is Jesus Christ and you shall be well.

In Matthew 8:1-3, the Bible tells us about a leper who came to Jesus, I know you can make me clean, I know you have the power, what I am not sure is whether you will be willing.

What was it he had, it was good news.

Jesus Christ said, you are not I am willing but let me tell categorically I am will.

So, if there is anybody here tonight who is considered incurable, in the Name that is above every other name, you shall be cured tonight.

In John 5:2- 9, …

Ha thank You Father! The Lord says the woman concern would understand, He ask me to tell you that the flow will not be reversed again.

He says you will understand. I am sure you do

John 5:2- 9

The Lord says there is someone here tonight, He says there is a lot of crisis going on in your head, He asks me to tell you I will resolve all of them.

John 5:2-9 tells us the story of a man who had been sick for thirty-eight years.

And tried and tried to be the first person to get into the pool of Bethesda when the Angel comes to stare the pool.

He tried for thirty-eight years, failed for thirty-eight years, came in contact with the One who is good news, and he had good news.

Because while he was still trying to tell Jesus the story of his problem, of his sickness, Jesus ignored the story and just gave him the solution and said be well, get out of this place.

I am shifting your level out of the level of the sick, of the failure, I am shifting your level to higher level.

That is for somebody here right now.

You are moving to a higher level tonight in Jesus name.

It was 1981, one of my daughters came to me and said please daddy I don’t know what to do.

I am a Medical Doctor, my mum is old and she has very bad eye.

And a Doctor said what they can do to cause her to see just for a few more years is to perform an operation on the eye.

But they say because of her age, they operation itself has only fifty fifty percent chance of success.

And now they want me to sign before they can conduct the operation.

What do I do?

If I don’t sign Mama is going to be totally blind in a matter of weeks.

If I sign she may be blind in a matter of hours because the operation does not guaranteed success.

What do I do?

I said is Mama nearby?

She said oh yes, she lives in Yaba.

I said let us go.

In those days we are fewer and I still have plenty of time.

So I followed her home.

We prayed for Mama.

Mama lived for more than thirty years after that with bright cleared eyes.

I have good news for somebody here tonight, no matter how difficult your situation may be, no matter how critical, no matter how impossible it may be for Doctors, in the Name that is above every other name, be heal right now.

Let us talk a bit about good news for the poor.

When you read 1 Kings 17:8-16

Thank You Father.

I can see that Daddy is concentrating on those trusting God for the fruit of the womb.

Because He says there is a man here tonight, He said my word that energized the seed of Abraham will energize your seed tonight.

In 1 Kings 17:8-16; if we are talking about somebody who is poor, we have a classical examples here.

This is a widow who has only one meal left.

Now that is now just poor, that is destitute.

She had a single divine encounter, and what was it that she had?

She had good news that says to her – your poverty ends today.

In 2 King 4:1-7, there was the case of another destitute.

She was so poor that the Creditors want to sell her sons.

She also had a single divine encounter, and she got good news.

The good news is: in less than 24 hours your debts are over, and number two, she will never borrow again.

I told a story last week in Dubai because by this time last week in Dubai we were having Holy Ghost service.

And suddenly God told me… yea if you want to clap you can go ahead and clap.

God is doing marvelous things in that part of the world.

You won’t even believe me if I tell you the story – what God is doing there, it is unbelievable.

Anyway, as I was preaching, the Lord asks me to tell the people a story.

Well, I am telling you the story now not that He asked me to tell you but I will tell you.

You never can tell what He did in Dubai, He can do it here.

I told them the story which many of the elders here would remember.

When we are at our very first auditorium by the express way.

I was preaching when God spoke to me that there is someone here who is going to have three financial breakthroughs.

God said, the first breakthrough belong to God completely.

He said the second one is to be shared between God and the Fellow – fifty: fifty.

And then God said the third financial breakthrough will wipe her debt.

I just announced it, as I had it.

Not long after that a widow came and says ha glory be to God daddy, I have already got the first financial breakthrough.

And I am talking of 1980, some thirty years ago when Naira was still Naira.

And she came with an amount of money that was over a hundred thousand naira – a lot of money then.

I said, I am sorry ma I can’t take this money from you.

She said why?

I said I know you, you are heavily in debt: you owe in Nigeria, your husband owed in Nigeria, he owed in Britain, and you have seventeen children living with you.

I said in any case how do I know that you are the one God is talking about – Please keep this one.

Use this one to take care of some of your problems.

She looked at me and said daddy, I thought you love me!

I said yes ma I do.

Ha ha, you want of defer me from the remaining two!

I said no, so, she said please, and she gave me the first one.

I collected the money – I am confessing to you, I didn’t touch it at all, I just kept it somewhere.

May God forgive my little faith.

Not long after that she came back; I have got the second one.

Ha! Well! Maybe this is the woman, maybe not, even though the Bible says the Just shall live by faith.

Occasionally the General Overseer needs prayers.

(Laughing)

And when the third one was going to come, it came in a manner nobody can believe.

She got a letter from London; the bank in London wrote that they made a mistake that the husband is not owing them, that they are the one owing the husband.

Because the Almighty God just went and there and rearrange the register, whatever they called it over there, and in just one sweep, all of the widow debt was gone.

Now when I told the story in Dubai last week, God asked me to back it up with a prophecy.

I am glad He has given me the permission to back it up with a prophecy for you here too.

He says the story of one of you will be exactly like that.

Thank You Daddy.

The Lord asks me to tell someone here tonight, He said you will understand, He said two will start the race in your womb and two will finish the race.

I think I will say amen to this one before I tell you.

This one has to be me.

Because God says there is someone here tonight, He said before this time next year there will be a great gathering of joy in your house; and He adds, He said even your enemies will be compel to attend.

Let us go quickly then to those who might be in bondage.

The good news is you shall be free.

Why?

Because Jesus is good news.

John 8:32 says you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.

John 8:36, it says whosoever the Son shall set free shall be free indeed.

The question is when am I going to be free?

Well! Luke 13:11-13, (thank you very much), Luke 13:11-13 tells us about a woman who had been bound by Satan for Eighteen years.

The day she met Jesus Christ and Jesus said to her, woman, thou art loosed – she was loosed immediately.

In that wondrous name of Jesus, the one who saved my soul, the One who called me, the One who sent me, I say to all who are in bondage be free right now.

Oh thank You Father! The Lord says there is someone here tonight, He asked me to tell you, and He said I will restore harmony back into your home and business.

And then what about the Hopeless

What about those that considered their case hopeless.

Well! There is good news.

Ecclesiastes 9:4, says that, as long as you are still breathing, there is hope.

It said a living dog is better than a dead lion.

You are still breathing.

I want you to breathe up and down as if you can do it.

Do it just for the funny if it – breath in and breath out.

If you have been able to do that one, let me here you shout hallelujah.

As long as you are still breathing, there is hope for you.

Let me round up because God want us to spend quality time in prayer tonight, because He’s going to answer our prayers.

What Is The Good News For Christians As A Whole?

September 2015 RCCG Special Holy Ghost Service. Theme: Good News

September 2015 RCCG Special Holy Ghost Service. Theme: Good News

NUMBER ONE. According to John 14:1-3, there is a mansion waiting for you in heaven.

Jesus said, in my Father’s house there are many mansions.

He says if it were not so, I would have not told you.

He said I am going to prepare a place for you, and when I finish preparing a place, I will come back for you.

Let me assure you brethren, the houses in heaven are mighty.

You ask me how do I you know? It is because I have seen my own.

And that is what I have always told my children – glory be to God.

And I will see you in heaven in Jesus’ name.

I have always told my children, if I die don’t let anybody told you that a witch killed him.

Which witch?

Where is he coming from? In the face of the power that is in the blood of Jesus! In the face of the power that is in the name of Jesus!

I saw my house, and I am telling you, if you see your house in heaven it takes the special grace of God to remain here.

Every house over there is made with gold – the mold there is gold, and we are talking the purest good. Gold so pure you can see through it like glass.

I saw my house in heaven for the first time in 1975, and at that time they were still building it.

I stood at one end looking at somebody who is at the other end, is movement that showed me that somebody is moving – that is how big it is.

What I saw in 1975 is far far bigger than this auditorium, and they were still building it. Only God knows how big it must be now.

When I woke up from that dream, I ask the Almighty God: what am I going to do with this kind of house?

Because rooms upon rooms upon rooms, haa! He said every fellow you bring to Jesus we have a room in your house.

Now, that tells you that those of you who are my children you already have at least a room.

He said because your children will be coming to great you in heaven – come for fellowship.

You know that there is no night there, nobody hurrying, is one continuous day.

That is while I am going to see you in heaven.

But you will have your own mansion too.

I have my own, you have your own – how are we going to get enough space for such houses?

I wish I have the opportunity, may be one of this days, I will show you a film that shows the universe – That shows how big the universe is.

Then you will know that there is tremendous space. Everything God does, He does it big.

There is mansion waiting for you in heaventhat is good news.

But then the question is, will I make it?

Well! Good news.

Hebrews 7:25 says Jesus Christ is a able to save to the uttermost. Do you know the meaning of uttermost? That’s to the very very end.

In other words, by the very special grace God you will make it.

I say you will make it.

You are not going to fall by the way side.

It doesn’t matter how hard the Devil may try, you will not fall by the way side.

Now, what about the Sinner? Any Good News For Sinners?

Oh yes!

Mathew 11:28-30. Jesus gave an invitation more than two thousand years ago, and the invitation is still valid today.

He said ‘come to me o ye that labour and heavy laden and I will give you rest‘.

Anyone may come. It doesn’t matter how rotten you have been.

If you come to Him, the good news is that the blood of Jesus cleanse from all sins: any sinner no matter how rotten.

You come to Jesus Christ; there is enough power in His blood to wash clean.

And I tell you one more story and then it will be time to pray.

Again, some of the Elder ones here they know the testimony.

Is one Alhaji that we met in Ilorin, he had the gospel, gave his live to Jesus, and went home rejoicing – now you have surrendered your live to Jesus, all your sins are gone.

He went home rejoicing.

Second day he came back, he said I can’t believe what you told me, he said you don’t know how bad I have been.

God can’t forgive all I have done.

Haa ! I said the blood of Jesus cleanse from all sins once you give your life to Jesus Christ – you are a new creature old things are gone, all things have become new.

He said you are sure? We said yes.

He went home dancing.

About two days later he came back, he said you don’t know all I have done and then he told us some of the things he had done, and then some of them are very very bad.

Well, we said, the word of God says, the blood of Jesus cleanse from all sins.

Okay! He went again, after some times he came back, he said I am not sure.

He said alright, I will tell you one thing, if I tell you this one and you believe that Jesus can still forgive that, I won’t doubt anymore.

Okay what is it?

He said he wanted to make a charm, and to make that charm, he needed a heart of a boy (a heart of a man), so he waited till one of his cousin died – he’s a boy, and they buried the boy.

At night, he went, dug out the boy, and cut the place; the body opened, took the heart and used it for the charm.

And that charm brought him a lot of money.

And he said you think God can forgive that?

Fortunately he can read.

So, I open the Bible to 1 John 1:7. I said read it for yourself.

The blood of Jesus Christ His son cleanses from all sin.

I said what is the meaning of “all“?

Ha! He said all means all.

That is what I am saying.

The blood of Jesus Christ cleanses from all sins – good news to every Sinner

It doesn’t matter what you have been.

You could have been a murderer, you could have been an armed robber, you could have committed adultery, you could have committed whatever any kind of evil.

You could have committed abortion twelve times or more, if you come to Jesus Christ, He will forgive you, He will give you brand new beginning.

One day when you stand here to give your testimony, you will tell us that you started as harlot, you have committed abortion so many times-you have lost count, and then you still show us one boy on the right, one boy on the left, because the blood of Jesus cleanse from all sin.

So, the only fellow who can go without good news tonight is the fellow who refuses to surrender to Jesus.

So if you are here and you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus and you want to do so, I am going to count from one to fifteen, because I can see that the crowd is very very far off.

I will count from one to fifteen; before I say fifteen, please come and stand before me here, let me pray for your salvation.

And then when you join us in the prayer that we are going to pray, the Almighty God will answer you by fire.

So if you want to give your life to Jesus, begin to come now as I begin to count.

One, two, now if you are far away you better begin to come because you have quite a distance to walk, three, clap for them they are coming, four, five, six, seven, eight, those hands that you are clapping will never withered, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen,

Now, those of you who are already in front and those of you on the way cry to Jesus now, ask Him to be merciful unto you, ask Him to save your soul, ask Him to wash you clean with His powerful blood. Promise him that from now on you will serve Him.

And the rest of us please let us stretch our hand towards this people and begin to intercede for them. Let us pray that the One who saved our souls will save their own souls also, that God will give them genuine salvation. Please intercede for them.

Pray that God will give them a brand new beginning. Pray for them brethren. Intercede for them. And let the Counselors move near, there were quite a crowd here, so Counselors will need to come close to them.

Those of you who are still on the way hurry up, because I am about to pray now. Make sure you get here before I finished praying for salvation. Talk to God, ask Him to be merciful unto you, ask Him to please forgive all your sins, ask Him to please wash you clean with His powerful blood.

Thank You Jesus.

Hurry up hurry up those of you still on the way Hurry up, I am about to pray now. And pray as you come; ask Jesus to pleas save your soul today, ask Him to please forgive all your sins, ask Him to please wash you clean with His powerful blood. Promise Him that you will serve Him for the rest of your that you will followed Him, and you will do His will form now on. Thank You Father, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Savior we want to thank You, thank You for Your word that has gone forth tonight, thank You for all these soul that have decided to surrender to You, please remember Your promise that whosoever will come unto You,

You will know wise cast out, they have come to You now Father, please receive them in Jesus’ name, forgive them in Jesus’ name, let Your blood wash away their sins in Jesus’ name.

As You are saving their souls tonight please write their names in the Book of Life.

From now on any time they call on You, please answer them by fire, and please Lord don’t let them go back to the world, let them serve You till the end. And I pray in Your kingdom they will not be missing, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

He will move you to a higher level. Before the end of this month you will be dancing for joy. He will answer all your prayers by fire. He shall be well with you and you will serve God with gladness. So shall it be; in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Amen.

If you receive that, let me hear you shout hallelujah.

Read: Proverbs 22:1-5
1 A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.
2 The rich and poor meet together: the LORD is the maker of them all.
3 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.
4 By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour, and life.
5 Thorns and snares are in the way of the froward: he that doth keep his soul shall be far from them.

Proverbs_11-30: The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise

Proverbs_11-30: The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise

When you are popular and celebrated on account of your position or service in the kingdom of God, beware and avoid every temptation to use what you have received against the will of God. If you are not careful, you may fall into a trap and become another example, like the 250 princes who were destroyed in Numbers 16. That shall not be your portion in Jesus’ Name! However, you need to know that if you are in a position of power or you are very famous and highly respected by people, you will be a target of manipulators.
If you are not extremely careful, you will fall into traps you never thought could ensnare you. After Korah, Dathan and Abiram orchestrated an evil plan and they wanted the children of Israel to buy into it, who did they contact? They deliberately chose the most popular 250 princes in the assembly of God’s people and carefully sold the idea to them (Numbers 16:2). Once that was done, convincing the people under these princes was a walk in the park.

Believe it or not, just as these princes were tempted, you too will be tempted. People who have goods and services for sale will come to you because they want to reach your members or those under your sphere of influence. Some of these may be beneficial to your people and some may not. Some people may even ask you to come and support a cause that is contrary to scriptures. Be very careful! Be watchful and prayerful. When they come to make such proposals, place them side-by-side with the word. Any proposition that violates the word of God must be rejected without fear or favour. Those borderline issues which are not out-rightly wrong or sinful should be presented to God, asking for His direction.
Never allow yourself to be used by manipulators! If you lead the people under you astray, not only will their blood be upon your head, you may lose your integrity, position, power and honour. Also, carefully watch out for sycophants who will sing your praise so high that you will not know when they begin to lead you astray. Sycophants are “loyal” to you for very wrong reasons – reasons they may never tell you. They will always want you to see what they do, because they do their service to impress the leader and not God. Ask God to weed off from you anyone who appears close to you but wants to mislead you.

 

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

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

Action Point

Pray that God will weed off sycophants and those with a wrong motive hanging around leaders in the Body of Christ, your family, place of work and the government.

If you experience a loss at any point in life, know that it’s a time to stay calm and not a time to lose heart. If you can wait to receive specific instructions from the Lord, it will expedite the recovery of your loss. The reason why many losses of God’s children have not been recovered is because they have not found time to seek the face of God on the matter. As you seek God’s face concerning those good things you have lost, the Lord will give you a word that will lead to their recovery.

Many years ago, while we were building the first big auditorium at the Redemption Camp, we needed a lot of wood. We paid the government board in charge of sawmills in Edo state, Nigeria, to have this wood supplied to us. A few weeks to our convention, this government board decided to shut down all sawmills in the state. While pacing up and down asking God what to do, the Lord asked me what I knew about the Kingdom of God. To me, this question was irrelevant and I wanted to say so, but I cautioned myself and began to say what I knew about the Kingdom of God. I said “You must be born again to enter into the Kingdom of God”. He concurred. Then I said “The Kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost”. He agreed. This continued until I exhausted all I could remember on the subject matter. Eventually, I said “Since the days of John the Baptist, the Kingdom of God suffereth violence, and the violent taketh it by force.” Then He replied, “That is where we are going.
Do you want your wood? Give me a violent offering.” That was on a Saturday; on Sunday, I shared this with my children and we gave a violent offering. On Monday, the governor of Edo state dissolved this government Board and reconstituted another one, which immediately reopened all sawmills. On Tuesday, someone who had no money to give brought his trailer for us to use as long as we wanted. On Wednesday, someone came to give us bags of nails. Several other people also brought materials for the building. Within two weeks, the auditorium was ready; all because I received an instruction from the Lord. The instruction that will lead to a full recovery of your losses shall be given to you this season. When you seek God’s face and He tells you what to do, don’t argue with Him; go ahead and obey the Lord and you will recover your losses. It is your recovery period this season!

 

Psalms_51-12: Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

Our Lord Jesus Christ has many names and titles. The purpose of these names is to enlighten the eyes of our understanding to the reality of His person. One of such names is The Way. In John 14:6, the Lord Jesus revealed this truth about Himself to us:
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
What does the Lord mean when He says He is the Way? If you need to get to a location and you are at a loss on how to get there, the wise thing to do is to ask people at your current location the way out of where you are in order to get to where you wish to go. The Lord Jesus Christ is the Way out of the unpleasant situation you are in presently.
He is also the Way into the new location of your choice. The Bible reveals Jesus as the Way out of sickness (1 Peter 2:24). In Acts 9:32-35, Peter visited some believers living in Lydda and met Aeneas who had been bedridden for eight years. He simply introduced him to Jesus Christ, and Aeneas followed the Name of Jesus out of sickness into divine healing and health.

The Name of Jesus is also the Way out of death (Acts 9:40-41). Our Bible reading shows that the sick, the lepers and the dead can follow the pathway of Jesus out of their circumstances. Anyone who has an appointment with death can be delivered by following the Name of Jesus, because Jesus is the way out of any situation having to do with death. Some 276 sailors, soldiers and prisoners were lost at sea for fourteen days and faced sure death in the hands of a violent hurricane called Euroclydon (Act 27:12-44).
For fourteen days, their souls were overwhelmed with the fear of death and they could not eat anything. They all would have died but for the presence of Paul who bore the Name of Jesus amongst them. The Lord sent His angel to Paul to show them the way of escape from the clutches of death. The Lord showed them that their salvation depended on them remaining in their sinking ship which was at the mercy of the winds (Acts 27:31)! The pathway that goes through Jesus led them through the valley of the shadow of death, and not one soul among them was lost (Acts 27:44). Do you have an early appointment with death that agents of darkness have fixed for you? In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, that appointed with death is cancelled! Has sickness drawn you so close to death? In the Name of Jesus, you shall not die but live! You shall recover in Jesus’ Name.

 

Psalms_51-12: Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

Psalms_51-12: Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

Prayer Point

Father, quieten every storm that wants to deliver death to my life, family, business or ministry now, in Jesus’ Name.

 

Romans_8-38: For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

1 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,
3 Who 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.
8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.
9 And 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.
13 And 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.

It is great to experience deliverance from demons, but it is better to never be repossessed by them after being delivered. A better option than these is not to have being possessed by demons at all. If you have never been possessed by demons all your life, you do not know what God has done for you. These two things are common to all those who have been possessed before: they suffered great losses and went through hell. Take for instance the Gadarene demoniac in our Bible reading: what he would never do to himself in his right senses, he did while demons were inside him. He cut his body with sharp stones, bled and felt the pain, and yet he compulsively repeated this often. In other words, the demons in him told him to hurt his own body as if it was the body of an enemy, and he obeyed even though he felt the pain. The demons tried to use him to destroy himself. Do you know that even today, demonic spirits still compel their victims to destroy themselves? We should not be surprised of this, as Jesus in John 10:10a already revealed their mission to us:
“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy:”

All over the world today, demons of addiction gradually lure people into taking degenerative substances such as cocaine, heroin, Indian hemp, cigarettes, tobacco powder (snuff), etc. After a while, such people discover that they are unable to break away from these substances. The aim of these demonic spirits of addiction is to destroy their bodies. In the same manner, these spirits get people into drinking alcohol, and before long, they become alcoholics. The operations of the demons of lust follow the same pattern. They get their victims into immorality, sodomy, lesbianism, and other sexual sins, so as to make them destroy themselves. 1 Corinthians 6:19 says:
“What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?”
The objective of these demons is to make their victims destroy their bodies to the extent that the Holy Spirit will not come near it, not to talk of entering in. Unfortunately, do you know that some people are happy to harbour demons because of certain benefits they derive from them; for example, practitioners of witchcraft? The pigs that were at the receiving end of the demons cast out of the Gadarene demoniac were more sensible than such people. They preferred to drown rather than to allow demons inhabit them. Are you as wise as these pigs? If you have any spirit other than the Holy Spirit inside you, you need help through deliverance.

The devil knows the glorious tomorrow that awaits every believer in Christ when they cross the finish line of the Christian race. This is why he fights tooth and nail to derail us from reaching our goal. He was a part of the heavenly bliss that will be our reward, but he lost his place due to evil thoughts (Isaiah 14:12-15). He does not want us to taste what he lost; hence he works through wiles to bring us down (Ephesians 6:11). One of the wiles that Satan uses in making believers in Christ abandon the Christian race is hardship. Some people have pulled out of heaven’s marathon before getting to the finish line, due to their inability to endure hardship. Our Lord Jesus Christ describes such people in Mark 4:17:
“And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended.”

The expectations you had when you entered the Christian faith matter a lot. The Christian faith is not a bed of roses. The way of the cross that leads to Heaven is not a path laden with gold and easy to take. If anyone tells you that once you believe in Jesus, all your problems will disappear and everything will always go well, you are being deceived. The day you signed up as a believer in Christ, the die was cast and the battle line was drawn between you and the kingdom of darkness. From that day, you became a sworn enemy of the forces of darkness. They will surely attack you and try to make you feel miserable.

You are expected to endure hardness as a good soldier of Christ (2 Timothy 2:3). The inability to endure difficult and trying times makes one a bad soldier of the cross. Even when God blesses you, He still leaves room for you to be persecuted, tried and ridiculed. Your faith in Christ may be tested through lack, hunger, unanswered prayers, false accusations, ill health, and so on. Jesus in our Bible reading taught that if you can take persecution, being reviled by men and false accusation in good faith, you are blessed and on the path to Heaven. On the other hand, if you easily get offended by these, if nothing is done to correct your attitude, you may become derailed from the faith. Are you offended in Christ? Towards the end of his stay on earth, John the Baptist began to doubt if the same Person he had declared to be the Son of God was the true Messiah (Matthew 11:2-6). In His reply to John’s questions, the Lord told him not to be offended in Him. It is a good thing to suffer persecution for your faith in Christ. Never get to the point of being offended in Him.

2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

John_10-11: I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

John_10-11: I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

The Almighty God is so great, mighty, powerful, glorious and all-knowing that He is unlimited, unlike mortal men. He has access to the past, present and future of every event. Jesus in Revelation 1:8 declared:
“I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.”
The word “Alpha” in this declaration refers to the beginning of beginnings. When everything began, it was in His presence. John 1:2 says the Word was in the beginning with God. He was there when everything was formed, and as a result, He can trace the historical links of everything to where it all started. He is still in control of the past, so He can interfere with it in order to give you a better tomorrow.
He knows exactly how things will turn out; hence it is best to always stick with His decisions. Before He gives counsel on any matter, He looks at the situation from the angles of the past, present and future, within the context of His purpose for your life. This is why those who factor His decisions into their lives are wise (Proverbs 3:5-7). Even if something goes wrong with such a decision down the line, because He is involved, and all the power and resources available in the universe belong to Him, He will tinker with things and get them to work in your favour (Romans 8:28). How often do you let Him into your decisions?

In the sphere of human existence, today is a product of yesterday. If you are a professional today, it is because you spent time being trained in school yesterday. If you have graduated from the university with a first-class honours degree, it is because you invested quality time into studying. If you are doing menial jobs as a cleaner or messenger, it is most likely because of your lack of access to an education or because you did not invest enough time in schooling. If you are suffering today, it is most likely as a result of what you did or did not do in the past. This is why you should be very careful with what you do today. Also, have tomorrow in view before taking that decision today. Thirdly, get connected with the only One who can go into your past to help your present. Do you know the Alpha and Omega? Are you connected with the Beginning of beginnings?

Read: Hebrews 3:15-19
15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
16 For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?
18 And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

One of the privileges that being in Christ grants to you is that your present situation and your past life cannot hinder your God-given destiny. God has decided your destination even before you were born. Because you are a child of destiny, you will get to your destination in Jesus’ Name. Nevertheless, you need to know that your destiny can be changed by God or by your attitude. God had to change His plan for eternal priestly succession, which He had earlier promised Eli and his household. Ponder on what God said to Eli in 1 Samuel 2:30:
“Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.”
May God never change His plan for your life, family and ministry in Jesus’ Name! AMEN!

Just as God can change His mind concerning a promise He made to an individual or family, He can also change His mind concerning a promise He made to a nation. In Numbers 14:26-32, God changed His mind concerning a generation of the children of Israel. God had brought them to the borders of the Promised Land, in readiness to completely fulfil the promise He had made to their fathers over 400 years before they were born. But amazingly, they refused to enter in. They did not believe that God could complete the process He had started.

God therefore changed His mind concerning them because of their unbelief (Hebrews 3:19). God told them that they would not enter into their destiny; rather, they would die in the wilderness. Their children, whom they thought would never enter the Promised Land, were the same ones God now said He would take into the land. May God never change His good plans concerning your nation in Jesus’ Name! Amen! Unbelief is a terrible thing! Every time you fail to believe that God can do what He has promised to do, you tie God’s hands and push Him to dump the promise He made to you. Unbelief is a slap on God’s face. People who are not yet saved are referred to as unbelievers. It is understandable why they cannot believe God in their current state. However, the moment you receive Jesus, you are supposed to become a believer. God is not happy when believers who have experienced His ability over time, demonstrate unbelief in Him. In any way you are in unbelief, repent fast and pull out of it!

Read: Numbers 16:1-3
1 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men:
2 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:
3 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?

Every race has its rules. Crossing the finish line without following the rules will bring you no reward. Service to God in His vineyard also follows this principle. Some leaders who have gone ahead of us in the service of God messed up and ended up where they did not bargain for. This is why to avoid ending up like they did, we must learn from their experience. Korah, Dathan and Abiram were powerful leaders under Pastor Moses in the wilderness, but they erred and met with terrible judgment. That shall not be your portion in Jesus’ Name! From the narrative about them in Numbers 16, we learn that we should focus on the assignment God has given to everyone of us. 1 Corinthians 7:20 makes it clear that everyone should mind their calling:
“Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.”

Adding to what God has given you might actually be a distraction to your original calling. If you want God to increase the scope of your assignment, or if you desire to be promoted in the things of the Kingdom, the right approach is to draw closer to the Holy Spirit, tell Him about your godly desires, satisfy God’s laid down conditions for experiencing an uplift and wait to hear from the Lord. Using the methods of the flesh to gain ascendancy can only uplift the flesh. It takes the Spirit to lift you up in spiritual things. It is important to note that not everyone occupying a top ecclesiastical leadership position got there by the Spirit. Allow God to judge and reward them accordingly, but do not repeat their mistakes.

Moreover, another lesson from the rebellion of Korah, Dathan and Abiram is that using your growing popularity to work against the will of God can totally erode it. The 250 princes involved in this sad story were very popular in the wilderness, having been selected out of the general populace into the position of leadership. They were honoured and famous for as long as they played their roles within the scope of their divine assignment. But the moment they decided to partner with rebellious folks, honour gave way to shame, and their popularity turned to disfavour. Are you a leader in the church or in any enterprise? Praise God! Are you becoming very popular by virtue of your position and the opportunities you have access to as a leader? Praise God! However, be very careful! Never use your popularity against God’s people or God’s Word. If you do, it will surely backfire and you will not be proud of what you will get in return.

Action Point

The essence and power of any influence, resource, ability or endowment you use against God will be eroded, and such acts will backfire on you.

Due to the advent of sin and the activities of our adversary, we are faced with different challenges of life from day to day. The loss of assets and of persons dear to us is one of those challenges which our adversary, the devil, throws at us to destabilise us and ultimately make us lose our faith. But thank God that provision has been made in the package of salvation for the recovery of those things which we may have lost. Do you desire to recover what you have lost? Stop crying about it and encourage yourself in the Lord.
A time of loss is a time to seek the face of God in prayer. After David and his men suffered a major loss, he wept, but he didn’t stop there. He encouraged himself in the Lord and sought God’s face in prayer (1 Samuel 29:3-8). Although God is a very present help in the time of trouble, it is only those who seek Him that will find Him (Proverbs 8:17). Based on his life experiences, the Psalmist confirms this in Psalm 34:10:
“The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.”
Have you lost any good thing? Seek God’s face from today. Separate yourself to spend time with God alone. For the duration of that period, let God be your only focus. Pour out your heart to Him and meditate on His word. Praise and worship Him in spirit and in truth. Be quiet in His presence to hear what He has to say to you. Have you been seeking God’s face after suffering a loss?

It is important to receive instructions from God after suffering a loss. He alone can fully tell how a loss occurred, where what was lost can be found and how best to recover it. Unfortunately, people seldom follow God’s instructions. Many people adhere to traffic rules, especially in developed countries, because they do not want sanctions. Similarly, most people follow the instructions in the user’s manual of their gadgets; but when it comes to God’s instructions, people take what appeals to them and discard the rest.
Beloved, receive all of God’s instructions because they will lead you to the path of success, victory and joy. Instructions from God can come to you through a variety of ways. God can instruct you by directly speaking to you. He can also do so through His servants, especially through the word of knowledge in programmes such as our monthly Holy Ghost Service. God can send you instructions while you fellowship with other brethren in church. It could be during praise and worship, the choir ministration, prayer time or through the sermon. This is why it is important not to neglect fellowshipping with the brethren. How attentive are you to receive instructions from God while in His presence?
