TOWARDS 2023 CHURCH GROWTH PROPHETIC AGENDA:
IN 2022, WE SAW GOD INVADE 83 ADDITIONAL NATIONS TO THE 63 NATIONS WE HAD BEFORE.
WE STARTED OUR FOREIGN MISSION ENDEAVOURS IN 1995. FROM 1995 TO 2021, HE GAVE US 63 NATIONS . IN 2022 ALONE HE GAVE US 83 NATIONS.
BY THE SIGNAL OF THE HOLY GHOST, WE SHALL BE EXPERIENCING A NEW WAVE OF EXPLOSIVE CHURCH GROWTH IN 2023 AND I HEARD HIM SAY TO ME THIS TIME IT SHALL BE FAR MORE THAN DOUBLE
WE ARE RUNNING WITH AN END-TIME PROPHETIC AGENDA WHICH IS ALL ABOUT INFLUX INTO THE KINGDOM. THIS CHURCH SHALL HIT SEVERAL SURPRISES THIS YEAR.
THE GREATEST HEADACHE OF THE DEVIL IS THE GROWTH AND EXPANSION OF THE CHURCH
YOU HEARD THE GOOD REPORTS, THOUSANDS OF CHURCHES BEING BUILT, THE ARK PROJECT GOING ON WITHOUT SWEAT.
THAT IS ENOUGH OF A PICTURE TO LET YOU KNOW THAT GOD WILL DO WHAT HE WANTS TO DO NO MATTER THE PREVAILING CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE EARTH
– Bishop David Oyedepo at 2023 Crossover Night and Feet Washing Service || Faith Tabernacle, Canaanland, Ota || Third Word Session
Hallelujah. Surely there is an end and your expectation shall not be cut off. Everyone that cares to plug into God’s prophetic agenda for this year, you will never be disappointed. Church Gist. All that choose to align with the demands of the year will end up with laughter.
TOWARDS 2023 CHURCH GROWTH PROPHETIC AGENDA.
Isaiah 42:9.
If the former has come to pass, then expect the new thing He is saying to come to pass. Isaiah 43:17.
Towards 2023 explosive prophetic church growth agenda, God is set to do a new thing. By the grace of God, we have every proof that the God of Wonder Double is still very much in our midst. You will recall how God said to me, “I, the God of Wonder Double is visiting you and I will remain in your midst as long as you want me”. We have every proof that the God of Wonder Double is still very much in our midst. We saw church growth life! in 2015. We saw new churches planted in 2019 in spite of Coro. Before then, we were about 5000 churches but that year, He added to us five thousand plus. It is not projection, it is not prediction, it is a prophetic agenda. In 2020, with our eyes open we saw that He planted double the number of Churches that were on ground – 10,400 churches. So Wonder Double made manifest in our local churches, Wonder Double made manifest in our network churches two years running without perspiration and struggle. Church Gist. When you believe God’s prophetic word, you have committed His integrity to perform it. In 2021, He doubled the number of home cells in many of our churches around the world, in one year. So all we had since we began home cell ministry was overturned in one year. Some States have two hundred per cent. In 2022, with our eyes open we saw God invade 83 new nations. Additional nations to the number we had before. That is from 63 nations to 146 nations. Note that we started our foreign mission endeavours in 1995. So from 1995 to 2021, He gave us 63. 2022 alone He gave us 83. What evidence do we need that the Wonder Double God is still very much in our midst?
In the same vein and by the signal of the Holy Ghost, we shall be experiencing a new wave of explosive church growth in 2023 and I heard Him say to me this time it shall be far more than double. Don’t ask me how shall these things be, we have seen enough of that not to bug our heads. God’s plans are according to His capacity, not ours. They are according to His wisdom, not ours. They are according to His resources, not our resources. Mark 9:23. If you ask me “how did you get into those 83 countries?” I don’t know, ask Him. How did you get to see 10,400 churches planted in a year within Nigeria and 1435 in 35 other nations of the world in one year? Ask Him. Ecclesiastes 11:5. Never ask God how shall this be. Believe what He says, He steps in to show the way to seeing It happen. Church Gist. Remember we serve a God of all possibilities and there is nothing too hard for Him. Jeremiah 32:27. All we need is to believe the prophetic word and prove that we do by our actions. Luke 1:45. James 2:18. Nothing defines our faith like our corresponding actions. When we believe the prophetic word, we have committed God to stretch forth His hand to perform it. Ours is to believe, God’s own part is to perform. Stand strong in faith with your corresponding actions and watch God perform what He says. 1 Kings 8:15. Isaiah 53:1. We shall see the hand of God in a very great way this year. For God is able to multiply His people a thousand times much more than we are. He is an unlimited God, He has His own way of getting things done. Deuteronomy 1:11. We are running with an end-time prophetic agenda which is all about influx into the kingdom. This Church shall hit several surprises this year.
What must we do to see this more than double church growth dimension in 2023?
1 Corinthians 14:8. Ambiguities don’t fly with God, only specifics do. If it will be more than double what are we being required to do? Revelation 22:1-2. According to that prophetic scripture, every tree of life. We are called trees of righteousness at redemption. Isaiah 61:3, 5:1-4. We are God’s choicest vine. Planted on a most fruitful hill, required to bring forth good fruits. So we represent that tree of life. Every child of God is a choice vine. John 15:1-3. So we are branches of the vine. Church Gist. We are choice vines in the house of God and we are required by that prophetic signal to bring forth twelve manners of fruits, every year. Therefore beginning from 2023 there is nothing stopping this Church from experiencing galloping growth. Jeremiah 30:19-22. In the growth of the Church lies the glory of the saints. When we take part in God’s Church Growth agenda, God takes care of all that pertains to us. We are stepping into the realm of supernatural church growth this year.
If you truly want the restoration of your dignity, whatever He tells you to do, do it. If you want your wine of celebration restored, whatever He tells you to do, do it. Therefore based on this inspired revelation, every Winner shall be required to deliver twelve established souls in 2023, all over the world.
Interestingly, God never forces His plan on anyone. Revelation 3:20. I stand at the door and knock, you open I come in. You shut the door, I pass to another person. God never forces His will on anyone. Church Gist. He never forces blessings on anyone. Anyone that cares to make a project shall see the glory of God. Proverbs 3:35. This year must mark the end of every form of shame and reproach in our lives.
The Bible says when your cloud is full, so it doesn’t have to be one per month. When your cloud is full, your rain will begin to fall. Church Gist. So strengthen the hands that hang down and step in with every force of faith inside you to deliver and you shall see it.
There is no prophetic word that will come to pass in our midst without us first believing God for it. Believe God for it and see how God will send His help to make it happen. As we all know, the greatest headache of the devil is the growth and expansion of the Church. Matthew 16:18. So it is a battle, Church growth is warfare. That is why every praying church is a growing church and every growing church must remain a praying church to keep growing. Luke 11:21-22. So we are out in the enemy’s camp to liberate his captives. We get that done on the altar of prayer. Isaiah 66:8. So wake up, let’s rekindle our prayer altar to shatter the gates of hell and release those captives into the kingdom. Church Gist. God who sees your engagement in secret has vowed to reward you opening. So everybody has that platform. Praying kingdom advancement prayers is every believer’s responsibility. Matthew 6:10. 2 Peter 3:9. God who sees your engagement and my engagement in secret has vowed to reward us openly. Watch out for things that are far from your imagination now will begin to drop on your laps.
This prophetic agenda will launch every Winner to the covenant highways of life where we shall keep making waves in all areas of life. The enemy shall not have his way in the name of Jesus Christ. Whatever cannot stop the Church from praying, cannot stop the Church from growing. Church Gist. My prayer is that we shall wake up and take responsibility and we shall see God in action. In the name of Jesus Christ.
What must I do to deliver my portion of this prophetic agenda?
1. Everyone must be awake to renew their kingdom advancement prayer altar. Church Gist. We are overly concerned about ourselves but when we seek first His kingdom all these things shall be added unto us. Ephesians 5:13.
2. Renew your passion for the salvation of souls. John 21:15-17. It is God’s capital proof of our love. Church Gist. Our love for souls is a clear definition of our love for God. I, therefore, pray that everyone will come awake to this open-ended platform for every believer.
3. You may not be equipped to preach but everyone has the capacity to invite people to come to Christ.
Will you come with me next Sunday? something is breaking forth in our Church and that drunkard decides to follow you, it is registered against your name. Luke 14:23. Church Gist. Renew your unashamed outlook in inviting people to come to church. Jesus said to me, when I came to this world someone has to tell someone “come and see”, he said go to town and tell them to come and see what Jesus is doing in this church. Hebrews 13:13. If you are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you too. Let’s go outside the gate bearing His reproach, then He will wipe out all of our reproach.
4. Renew your commitment to seek the establishment of new converts. Helping out as you are able at your level. Helping them to get to church and watching their welfare in all other areas as you are able. Church Gist. As much as you have the opportunity do good to all men especially those of the household of faith.
5. Renew your commitment to kingdom advancement investment. It will open you up to a world of financial fortune. Get excited about it. If something needs to be done in your local assembly and you have the capacity to do it, don’t wait for somebody else. Church Gist. Dive into it. Because many financial wonders will rise in our midst this year. Zechariah 1:17. God has it, He is looking for who to entrust with it. A day is here when heaven will visit the earth with jewels of prosperity but only those that can be trusted will partake of it. The good news is that no one will end the year 2023 in regret.
As we round up, take note of the following. Every time a man steps out of service: (1). His name gets off the payroll of that organization. (2). He is no longer eligible for promotion. Can somebody who has retired be promoted? Stay on duty. 1 Thessalonians 5:24. All of us are too young to retire. The prayer ministry is a lifelong ministry, anyone who can eat can pray. The invitation ministry is a lifelong ministry, anyone who can ask anyone to come for my birthday can ask anyone to come to Christ. Giving is a lifelong ministry, there are many people in our church that their lives just get brighter when they retire from natural service. Why? Because of their covenant engagement as a lifestyle. Somebody is here, your latter end will be far better than your beginning. Church Gist. No one will end up as needy. No one will beg to eat at the end of his life. Ecclesiastes 7:8. God has a better end for His people. In the name of Jesus, nobody’s life will suffer retardation. As our days, so shall our strength be. Genesis 24:1. In his old age he was blessed in all things, that shall be your experience.
Engage this year dedicatedly. – John 12:24-26. Serve Him dedicatedly. Psalm 22:30. Everyone serving God as a seed impacts on generations after Him. Choose to serve God as a seed this year and watch how that will impact your generations. There are many people here, your lineage will never forget that you came. They will be praying in the name of the God you served. They will take cover in the covenant which you walked in. Paul the Great said I die daily. 2 Corinthians 11:27. When you live that kind of lifestyle, everything keeps happening in your favour. In the previous name of Jesus, the days of uncertainties are over in your life. May all of us receive the grace to remain active in service till He comes. I say unto you arise and depart for this is not your rest. God is not finished with you yet, this is not your rest. Every seed of Abraham is ordained to impact on their generations. Genesis 12:3. Your name is in there all you need is just go full blast with God and you will secure a sworn blessing. May each one of us this year secure God’s sworn blessing. Genesis 22:16-18. Sworn blessing is the end of all strives, sworn blessing is the end of all struggles. May each one of us this year secure God’s sworn blessing. What provokes that? Our raw unreserved obedience. Raw, full, unreserved obedience. Genesis 22:1-18. May each one of us this year secure God’s sworn blessing. It will be the end of all strives and struggles. This is that year in your life.
– Your struggles are giving way to miracles. All your struggles are giving way to miracles.
– God will make you laugh.
Prayers: Serving God is a choice. Express your choice to God. Let this year be your greatest year of commitment to kingdom advancement endeavours. Church Gist. Plug into the twelve established souls in this church this year. Engrace to deliver my portion of my twelve established souls this year. Grant me speed Jesus.
Nehemiah 4:6. Matthew 22:37. They had a mind to work, their mind is programmed towards it. They planned towards it and they engaged towards it. They are not just religious robots, they were actively engaged in planning and programming how to get my twelve established souls this year. Church Gist. They are not just walking around and getting lost in the crowd. God does not bless the public, He blesses individuals. Stand out this year with a mind to work. You don’t just need to believe it in your heart, you put your mind to work towards it.
God does not bless groups, He blesses individuals. Isaiah 51:2. God does not promote groups, He promotes individuals. May no one among us be left out this year. Church Gist. He does not prosper groups, He prospers individuals. He distinguishes individuals, not groups. Malachi 3:17.
– The year is declared your turning point year, you have been watching others in the past, it is your turn. You have been listening to others testimonies in the past, it is your turn.
– The same way this church is flying on eagle’s wings I decree that this year will place you on the same order of Eagle’s wings in your life. The days of stress and strain are over in your life.
Never mind the happenings around you, you are only in the world, you are not of the world. You heard the good reports, thousands of churches being built, the Ark Project going on without sweat. That is enough of a picture to let you know that God will do what He wants to do no matter the prevailing circumstances of the earth. We are not down because the world is down, we are down because we don’t know how to be up. Let God be your priority for living on their own accord. Church Gist. This year without any human help, God will surprise you. Paul said I know no man after the flesh. Your Church knows no man after the flesh, inside or outside the Church. Inside or outside church, in government or out of government. Let God become your reason for living and every good and perfect thing will start happening on their own accord. That shall be your experiment from henceforth in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
