WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF IN YOUR SPIRITUAL FAMILY, YOU FLOW IN SPIRITUAL ACCOUNTABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY
– Dr. Pastor Paul Enenche on “KNOW YOUR SPIRITUAL FAMILY” || June 2023 Impartation Service || Glory Dome, Abuja
I welcome everyone here to this service in the precious name of Jesus Christ. First of all, we thank our Father in Heaven for being a very wonderful Father to us. There’s no Father like God. Church Gist. All the fathers in the house, you’re highly appreciated and all the mothers that made it possible for them to be fathers, you’re also highly appreciated because nobody can be a father by himself. It takes a mother. Church Gist. Nobody should even be concerned that maybe you have a physical father that does not care for you or you don’t have a physical father at all, your Heavenly Father covers and I congratulate you in the name of Jesus.
This message was scheduled before I ever knew that today was fathers’ day and it is titled, “KNOW YOUR SPIRITUAL FAMILY”. Church Gist. We started by the Knowledge of God, knowing God, then knowing ourselves, Wednesday was a blast, know your work and this day is know your spiritual family. When I say spiritual family, I’m talking about your company and your covering. Church Gist. Our objective is to understand our spiritual family, that is, our company and our spiritual covering, spiritual father and so forth. Acts 4:23.
By way of introduction, it’s important to note that:
1. God is a God of order and procedure. Genesis 1:1.
2. God established the natural family at creation. Genesis 1:27. Like you all know, the natural is always the shadow of the spiritual.
3. God establishes His people in Spiritual locations, companies and families. 2 Samuel 7:10. Acts 4:23. Psalm 68:6. He puts His people in families so that nobody is solitary spiritually. Jeremiah 3:15-16. Church Gist. “I will give to you Pastors” and what is that Pastot about? Galatians 4:19. Paul is calling the Galatian Church, his children, he’s a spiritual father, a cover to the Galatian Church.
What is the conclusion at this point? That there are spiritual families that offer us spiritual company and spiritual covering. Church Gist. God establishes spiritual families that offer us spiritual company, that is the Church and the brethren and spiritual covering, that is, the Pastor or your spiritual father. For the avoidance of doubt, a commission such as this is one spiritual company. There may be different branches here and there but it’s one spiritual company with one spiritual covering. Church Gist. That is to be made very clear without any trace of ambiguity.
The question is, how do you identify your spiritual family? That is your spiritual company and covering. How do you identify? This is very important.
1. Your spiritual family, that is your company or your cover is as revealed to you by God. That is, you don’t choose your place of worship and you don’t choose your Pastor, God gives them to you. It’s as revealed you by God. Jeremiah 3:15. Church Gist. God has ways in which He shows you who your Pastor is and as we continue to talk, you may understand some of the ways.
2. Your spiritual family is identified by that place that resonates with your passion and spiritual aspirations. That is your kind of spirituality. Psalm 42:7. Church Gist. It is that location where the deep is calling to your deep. There’s something inside you that is in agreement. Am I communicating at all? Your spiritual family is identified by that place that resonates with your passion and spiritual aspirations. Church Gist. I’m going to use the place and the person, that is the location or the Spiritual father of Pastor, interchangeably.
3. Your spiritual family is identified by that place or person with whom you feel a deep sense of spiritual connectivity. Church Gist. It feels like an umbilical connection, the way it is for mother and baby. In that place, you feel a deep sense of spiritual connectivity. With that person who is meant to be your Pastor, spiritual father or whoever, there’s that deep sense of spiritual connectivity. For example, you see Joshua and Moses in Exodus 33:11, Moses was on top of the mountain but Joshua was so connected to Moses that he could not even depart from the foot of the mountain. Church Gist. There was that deep connection. Also, the example of Elijah and Elisha. 1 Kings 19:19-20. Listen, somebody met somebody once and there was such a connectivity that he abandoned everything that he had been doing with his life and followed the stranger that he just met. That is a magnetic connectivity. He abandoned everything and follow this man for life until something dropped. Church Gist. It is that place or that person with whom you feel the deep sense of spiritual connectivity. It didn’t matter what others feel or don’t feel. I’m sure there may be others around Elisha when this happened but it didn’t matter. Church Gist. The sons of the Prophets were all around but it didn’t matter. This man just ran because of that connection.
4. Your spiritual family is identified by that place that feels like home to you. You’re at home when you’re there and it feels like something is missing when you’re not there. Church Gist. How is it like home? It is the place you go to report the devil when you’re challenged. Acts 4:23.
5. Your spiritual family is identified by that place where you hear and experience God easily. While the message is going on, you’re hearing something. Isaiah 30:20-21. Church Gist. While your teacher is teaching, you’re hearing the voice of God inside your teacher’s voice. Isaiah 30:21. Your spiritual family is your Bethel, the place of encounters, the place of open Heavens and the place to hear God.
6. Your spiritual family, your spiritual covering especially is identified by the person whose voice or picture God uses to speak to you. God speaks to you using his voice or face where necessary. Church Gist. The last point is the issue where you come to Church and Preaching is going on and you’re receiving the Word of God and hearing God through that voice but this point is different. In this case, you’re in your house or your closet, doing something else and God is using the voice of your Pastor or your covering to speak to you and give you direction. 1 Samuel 3:3-10. Samuel was hearing the voice of God in the voice of Eli. His Priest was Eli, God was speaking to Samuel but it was Eli’s voice he was trying until Eli had to tell him, “no. I perceive it’s God talking to you”. We have had several experiences. A Pastor was going to preach somewhere in Kaduna and all of a sudden, he said he saw me appear to him and I said to him physically, “don’t go and preach in that place, it’s not a good place to go”. Church Gist. Before he could say, “Praise the Lord”, the vision was cut off. Another one said he went to preach somewhere in the south-south part of the country and he was hearing my voice instructing him and he was saying what I was saying. He was hearing it and saying it with accuracy and precision. Church Gist. That one was very frightening. There are countless number of people here and all over the world who are saying that they were going through hell or something and about to die or something and they saw the mantle of the commission step in and say, “return back, it’s not time to die” and so on. God uses the voice or the face of your spiritual covering to speak to you.
7. Your spiritual family is identified by the place or person who stirs your fire, passion and potentials. Brings out the best and causes something inside you to kick. Like Elizabeth said in Luke 1:44. Church Gist. John the Baptist in the womb of Elizabeth was kicking, hearing the sound of the mother of his Lord. When you sit under the ministry of your Pastor, teacher, tutor or whoever, there’s something in you that is triggered. There’s a fire that is activated.
8. Your spiritual company is identified by the place or person whose voice triggers your joy. Luke 1:44.
– somebody say Amen.
– I speak to someone here today, every trace of depression in your life is arrested!
9. Your spiritual family or company is identified by that person or place that communicates in the language you understand. I’m not talking of natural language now. When they speak and teach, you understand. Church Gist. What is spoken is clear to you, what is taught is clear to you. Psalm 114:1. The language of your Father is not strange to you, the communication of your family is not strange to you. You’re not among people whose languages are strange and communication is strange. Church Gist. Have you ever stepped somewhere before where they are talking and people seem to be understanding and hearing what they are saying but it is passing across your head. Some kind of light or insight that you don’t understand. Church Gist. It’s not that it may be wrong, it’s maybe that that is not your language. Am I communicating? Don’t try to force yourself to understand strange language. Don’t try to force yourself to understand strange doctrine. Church Gist. Don’t try to force yourself to understand what is strange to your spirit. Don’t try, don’t struggle.
10. Your spiritual company or family is identified by that place or person whose spirit people can discern around you. Like Elijah and Elisha. 2 Kings 2:15. Church Gist. It is like you carry a measure of their spiritual DNA. Even atimes, you’re not even aware yet. There are people that have been directed to me, they say, when they move, talk and walk, somebody would tell them, “do you know Pastor Paul Enenche?” He will say, “no. I don’t know him yet”. They will say, “Okay. You better go and know him because there’s something about you that is like something he carries”. There are people who have connected their spiritual family because a certain residual spiritual DNA is detected. There’s something that makes it clear that this is where you belong. There are people forcing themselves to be in the wrong places. Church Gist. I was talking with a young man many years ago and I thought I was sitting in front of Daddy GO. Everything including voice. Of course, he was drunk in that unction, almost from childhood. It immersed him. If you’re an eagle, don’t struggle to be fathered by a vulture. I’m sorry for using that extreme example. Okay, let me use a better one. If you’re a tiger, don’t struggle for the leadership of a lion, let a major tiger lead you. Church Gist. May you not let any devil waste your life. Find your place on time so you can make sense on time.
– look at your neighbour, say, “find your place on time so your life can make sense on time”.
– I prophesy to somebody here today, if your life is not making sense yet and this is your place, I declare that agenda is arrested!
One Pastor told me some years ago, he said he came across our church in area one then, a newly roofed powerful building. He said he told somebody, “is this the Winners’ church?” They said no. Church Gist. He said, “does this person here have anything to do with Bishop David Oyedepo?” They said, “why?” He said, “because I just sense something here that looks like what I feel around him”. The spiritual climate, you carry it when you’re under the cover.
Now, let me say five important things that you must note about spiritual family and I am taking this directly from the physical family setting.
1. You don’t disown or disconnect from your family because of parental correction or misunderstanding of you. Church Gist. That your father corrected you or did not understand you does not make you disown your family.
2. You don’t disown your family because of a misunderstanding or conflict with your sibling. That is, you and your brother or sister, you have a problem with each other and then you disown your family, it doesn’t happen except if there’s something happening to the head. Church Gist. Nobody left his father’s house because his brother looked for his trouble. Nobody abandons Church because one of the members of the Church, “let me just leave their Church for them”. Which is their Church? My own mentality is, between you and me, you’re the one to leave for me, I can’t leave for you. Church Gist. Since you didn’t bring me here, you can’t drive me from here.
3. You don’t disown your family because of delay in expectations or other challenges of life.
4. You don’t disown your family because another family appears fanciful or attractive. Have you done that before? Church Gist. Where somebody says, “my father’s house is too poor” and then goes to another family and says, “can you just adopt me?” Even though I have seen a lot of application for physical adoption. No. That is signature for frustration. Listen to this, the Bible said, “God is the one who sets the solitary in families” Psalm 68:6. Jeremiah 3:15. God said, “I will give you Pastors”. Church Gist. You don’t give yourself, you don’t use even physical attributes to determine who is your Pastor or where your Church is. It is very deeply spiritual. You don’t even use tribal, state or language affiliations or any form of affiliation, it’s deeply spiritual.
I met someone sometime back, a member of this Church, very gifted and talented young lady and then just roamed away from the Church. Church Gist. Maybe there was an attractiveness or fancifulness somewhere and then just went there and remained there for almost 15 or more years. Few days ago, I felt to call the person, “how are you doing?” “Oh. Is it daddy? I want to come and see you” and then came looking like a shadow. Church Gist. This is a person by gifting should be nationally or globally known by now. Even while in that place, I had reached out to her and her siblings about 4 years ago to pray for them. That is, “come, let me pray for you, I think you’re stranded”. That prayer of 4 years ago produced husband but still went back. Now, listen to this; after I prayed, she said, “since January, God asked me to start paying tithe back to this Church here and I said no, I want to come back home”. Home. I was so touched. Church Gist. There are people who suffer their lives, 10-15 years looking for what is not missing. These things are spiritual matters. You don’t play with your spiritual destiny. No matter how fanciful a car is, if the driver is not driving where you’re going, you’re wasting your life. You say, “I just entered a Lexus”. “Where is this Lexus going?” You’ll say, “it’s driving to Port-Harcourt” “But where are you going?” “I want to go to Lagos but I’m just enjoying inside the car” that is driving you to a wrong destination.
One of the things God helped me early was to locate my cover early. He didn’t allow us to waste time at all. Church Gist. The one that is to assist fulfill destiny, everything was just done so early because we don’t have too much to fulfill destiny. We don’t have eternity.
– you will not miss it.
5. You don’t function as a mobile member of different families. Psalm 92:10. Yes, you can have instructors, you can listen to tapes and read books, it’s allowed. 1 Corinthians 4:15. Church Gist. Instructors are plenty, fathers are few. With an instructor, you have instruction, with father, you have inheritance. Nobody ever goes to an instructor to look for inheritance. That your teacher is sharing his property. You can get the instruction of an instructor but you cannot get the genetics of an instructor. Church Gist. If it is genetics, you get it from a father. With an instructor, you get instruction, with a father, you get impartation. Instruction tells you what to do, impartation gives you the power to do it. Instruction may tell you what to do but impartation empowers you to do what needs to be done. Church Gist. That’s why so many people are missing their destinies here and there. Up and down, they are here today, there tomorrow, everywhere.
– it will never be your portion!
Very quickly, what are the benefits of a spiritual family?
1. Spiritual nurturing and feeding with knowledge and wisdom unto multiplication. Jeremiah 3:15-16. Church Gist. Your spiritual company is the place where you’re spiritually fed and nurtured with knowledge and wisdom, the outcome of it is multiplication.
2. Succor, strength and support in times of challenges and need. Church Gist. When your faith is challenged, when your ground is shaking, when things are happening around you, that is the place you run to and get succor, strength and support. Acts 4:23.
3. Continuous impartation of needed gifts and graces for destiny fulfillment. Ezekiel 2:2. When you sit under the ministry of your father, your Pastor, your mentor, in the company you belong to, continuously, things drop on you. Romans 1:11.
– somebody is receiving an impartation here right now!
4. The reproduction of grace, results and impact after the order of your spiritual family. Isaiah 8:18. What is available in the Father is available in the son. 2 Kings 2:15. Church Gist. There’s the duplication of spiritual DNA. How is that? You’re not a Pastor but you’re a businessman, a politician or whatever you are. You know what is going to happen? Anywhere you are is crowded. Things are working with effortless ease. You may not lay hands for the blinds eyes to be opened but closed businesses are opening because you carry the same mantle of your father. Church Gist. I can ask you a question now and I’m sure you would answer me. The business or the technical work that you’re doing now, just imagine that the anointing that went to Kano last week and to Gwagwalada this week, the same anointing is used to confront your business, is it possible for it to fail? I don’t know how many messages I have preached in the last one week and none of it is a repetition. Church Gist. Carry that same mantle into the academic world.
– somebody is reproducing grace here! If you’re that one, say a louder Amen.
5. Spiritual covering against adversity and captivity. When you identify with your spiritual family, you receive spiritual covering. Church Gist. The devil can’t waste you, you can’t die like chicken, you’re not a wastable material. Hosea 12:13. It is the mantle of the people that tackles the battle of the people. Church Gist. If it is not the mantle over your life, it may not be able to address the battle of your life, irrespective of how powerful it is.
6. Spiritual accountability and responsibility. When you find yourself in your spiritual family, you flow in spiritual accountability and responsibility. Church Gist. You know this is where you belong and you function accordingly. Luke 10:17.
7. Spiritual guidance and role modeling. In your company, watching your God-ordained spiritual father or mentor, guidance and role modeling is easy. Judges 7:17. Acts 4:13. You know what to do because you see what they do.
One of our members, a business man, told me, he said, “I watch how you conduct your life. I want to run what I run the way you do what you do. The seriousness with which you do it”. Church Gist. Another one told me, “I model every aspect of my life according to what I see you today” and he’s in effortless millions. I have been following God’s servant, Papa David Oyedepo, it should be 30 years by next year. I’m not sure if I have asked him up to 7 questions within these years. I sit and what I hear, I sit and what I watch. Church Gist. When I think of the steps he takes and the things he does, it answers any question I want to ask. That is what money can’t buy. Church Gist. You see the steps, you see the words positioned in front of you, whatever be your career. There are messages that I may be preparing and I may go through 200 scriptures to prepare a 30 minutes sermon and all the Scriptures would not come out here. You take that kind of intensity into anything you do with your life. We were in workers’ meeting here yesterday, download. Am I communicating at all? Church Gist. There’s no laziness in this house. There’s no weakness in this family, there’s no failure here and there’s nothing small hete.
– I announce to you today, there shall be nothing small in your life! There shall be no trace of laziness in your life!
8. The guarantee of destiny fulfillment. Journey to destiny. All the Israelites needed to do was to follow Moses’ direction and Promised Land is guaranteed. Hosea 12:13. Church Gist. Many years ago, I made up my mind, I said everything God wants me to be, I must be and I don’t care who God wants to use to lead me there. I swallow every pride. Church Gist. I don’t want at the end of my life to realize that there are things I would have done that I didn’t do because I entered the wrong vehicle or followed the wrong leadership.
– you will end well!
Let me give you a conclusion. What are the responsibilities of the spiritual family member? You’re in a spiritual family, what responsibilities do you accept in order to benefit maximally from spiritual covering? Church Gist. That’s what I want to address. “Do I just sit down like that and everything they are saying is my benefit would just happen, just like that?” No. What responsibilities do I accept in order to benefit maximally from my membership of the spiritual family?
1. Place very high value on your spiritual family and covering. Profit is a product of value, benefit is a product of a value. What you don’t value would never profit you. What you don’t value holds you no benefit. Church Gist. In Mark 5:25-29, we saw the woman with the issue of blood, everybody was thronging Jesus, everybody considered Him normal parley but this woman said, “if I touch the helm of His garment is enough”. When Jesus said, “somebody touched me”. They said, “ah. What are you talking about? This is not correct na, everybody here is touching you”. He said, “that is not the kind of touch that I’m talking about. Somebody placed a demand on what I carry by contact”. Church Gist. It is possible to touch and not catch it. Many people are too familiar to be imparted, they are too casual. What some people come all the way from America to collect, there are those who are on ground, it doesn’t make any sense to them.
One day, I gave somebody a shoe as mantle, the person sold the shoe. I could not believe. I wish you gave me back the shoe, I would give you the money. Church Gist. “Wear this shoe, let it change your life”, he sold it. You can’t believe who he sold it to. You come to Church with a sense of value. You open your ears when the message is going on with value, you receive prophetic declarations with value. If any mantle will profit you, you must value it. Avoid every trace of over familiarity. Church Gist. My mother place very high value on what I carry. The mother that gave birth to me. She said, “once I come back home, he will lay hands on my leg, it will be healed”. Once I do that, she would start telling people, “you see? Didn’t I tell you? The pain has gone. I told you if he lays hand on it, it will go”. My father, very heavy value. I reached home and he gathered people, he said, “everybody come, he’s here, let him pray for you”, as I’m laying hands on people, he would be shouting, “fire!”. Church Gist. If the people who saw your babyhood and when you couldn’t take care of yourself, they saw your mess and everything, if they can value the person, what is your relationship that is preventing your value?
– I see something happening for somebody here!
You know that the sons of the Prophet had little value for Elijah, only one person for what Elijah carried and who was that? Elisha. He was the one who carried it.
2. Represent your family correctly, accurately and well. Don’t misrepresent God, don’t misrepresent the Church. Represent your family, that’s your responsibility. “Oh, he’s from Dunamis? He’s a child of God. He’s born again?” You represent your family correctly, accurately and well. Do not misrepresent God and the Church. Acts 4:13. Acts 11:26. Church Gist. I can tell you that good representation opens doors. 2 Kings 4:8-10. There was a young man doing business, need 100 million to do something and he had a talk with somebody who was a big billionaire and this man said, once he talked with him and knew where he was coming from, he knew he was connected here, he said, “I would give you 100 million”. “What about agreement?” He said, “no need”. “What do we sign?” “Forget about it. I trust you and you have told me your role in Church and who your Pastor is”. Church Gist. 100 million without agreement in this country. I called the man and said, “I heard what my young man told me that you did for him. I want to appreciate you for that trust, he won’t betray it”. He did the business and returned back the money intact. Church Gist. Good representation. Once the door is going to open because you represent well, don’t misbehave or mess up. Don’t misrepresent God, don’t misrepresent the Church.
Somebody got money, I don’t know how much, over a hundred thousand dollars or something and the person who was giving him the money, I said to him, “have you people agreed?” He said, “No, no. I don’t want any much accountability from him, he came from you. I knew him from you”. Church Gist. And everything was handled neatly and tidily. Good representation opens doors.
Now, let me correct something, just because I said he didn’t sign agreement does not mean you shouldn’t sign agreement oh. Church Gist. Our people say, “if you say one, say the other one”. Let me say the other one, sign agreement, sign it very well.
3. Be committed to service in the house. Don’t just sit idle. Don’t just sit and watch. Listen to this, the unction you serve is the unction you can inherit. Elisha poured water on the hands of Elijah. 2 Kings 3:11. Church Gist. He served Elijah, no wonder he could make demands on the anointing of Elijah. Also, the unction you serve is the unction that would service you. Be involved, do something. Let something work in the house because you’re there. Church Gist. Don’t be among those who are just seated here complaining about everything, be involved in the working of things.
4. Release your goodwill and prayer into your spiritual family and covering. Ephesians 6:18-19. 2 Thessalonians 3:1-2. Listen to this, if Job’s captivity can be turned because he prayed for his friends, Job 42:10, what would happen to you when you pray for the family? Church Gist. You connect with the grace. You may not be able to go for the crusades but you can pray, pray for us. Release your goodwill. There are those who are just so angry, “oh, the man is so blessed, why?” That is a curse. You don’t envy your father.
5. Be involved in building up the family. Be involved in the increase of the House. Ephesians 4:16. Luke 14:23. Be involved in compelling the world, the lost world to come into the house. Church Gist. Be involved in soul winning. And What does that do for you? John 15:16. It expedites answers to your prayers. There are people who have been coming to Church but they have never invited one person to Church. Something is wrong. They have not won one soul. Something is wrong.
6. Be committed to giving to the cause of the house. Psalm 102:13. Philipians 4:15-19. Listen, when you minister by giving in the house, in your family, what that does is that it qualifies you for the supply of all your needs. It also connects you to grace. 2 Corinthians 9:6-8. Church Gist. You connect grace by giving, effortlessly. The grace in the house and on the mantle, effortlessly. Something flows from here to the ministry above us monthly for donkey years. Something flows from myself in the direction of my spiritual father monthly for two decades and a half and above. Church Gist. No advice, no pressure, no preaching, no cajoling or coercing. Nothing. You just connect things effortlessly.
7. Be committed to love and unity in the house. Don’t be an agent of discord and division. Psalm 133:1-3. Romans 16:17. Don’t tear down what God is building, otherwise God will tear you. Church Gist. Don’t be agent of conflict and division and crisis. You spoke here, you spoke there, you jam two people’s heads. You lied against the person and so on and forth and person had to leave Church. God would hold you responsible for any soul you send away from Church. He would hold you responsible for anyone you send to hell, you will follow them there. Church Gist. Don’t let the devil use you to scatter when God is gathering. We are labouring together with God, spending time, energy, resources, everything for God to build. Don’t let the devil use you to scatter. Some of you may need to ask God to suture your lips because of loquaciousness, excessive talk, talkativeness, hear here, hear there, high frequency talk, faster than parrots. Just calm your life down so you don’t ruin your destiny. Church Gist. Just do the things that foster building in the house. Be a peace maker, not a crisis bringer.
