YOU MAY HAVE TO REMIND GOD OF HIS PROMISES NOT YOUR WORKS – GOD IS NOT UNRIGHTEOUS TO FORGET
IF YOU ARE A REAPER AND AN AVOWED INGATHERER, YOU HAVE COMMITTED GOD TO YOUR WAGES
SERVING GOD AND THE INTEREST OF HIS KINGDOM LAUNCHES MEN INTO FORTUNE
THE MONTH OF JUNE IS DECLARED YOUR MONTH OF AWESOME SURPRISES IN THE NAME OF JESUS!
WE ARE IN THE LAST DAYS WHERE THE WORLD WILL BE LEARNING FROM THE CHURCH THE WAY TO GET THINGS DONE DESPITE THEIR TECHNOLOGY
YOU AND REDEEMED AS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD SHOWING THE WORLD WHERE TO GO
MAY THIS MONTH MARK A NEW DAWN IN OUR WALK WITH GOD!
GRAMMAR DOES NOT MAKE A SERVANT BUT PROMPT AND WILLFUL OBEDIENCE TO GOD.
THERE ARE THINGS YOU WON’T NEED TO PRAY FOR WHEN YOU LIVE IN OBEDIENCE.
- Bishop David Oyedepo at Covenant Day of Trumpet Service || Youth Chapel || 1st June, 2024.
I heard a word from the Lord this morning: you may have to remind him of his promises, you don’t have to remind him of your works. The same way you don’t remind your employer, “please don’t forget to pay me this month,” you don’t have to remind God of your works. Hebrews 6:10. Church Gist. We may have to put him in remembrance of his Word – Isaiah 43:26, you don’t have to remind him of your works. He is not unrighteous to forget. Concerning Abraham he said, “he remembered his promise to Abraham his servant.” Psalm 105:42. Not that he was reminded, he remembered. Abraham was far gone but he remembered and he brought them out of Egypt for he remembered.
That my daughter said, God surprised me even when I did not expect – he remembered. He remembers our works, we don’t have to remind him. John 4:36. So if you’re a reaper and you’re an ingatherer, he remembers to pay you your wages. He remembers to pay you rewards to make you rejoice. Church Gist. James 5:4. That’s God saying to people, “don’t keep back the hire of those who labour on your field. Ah! If the cry comes to my ear, I will deal with you.” So God who said that does not hold back our reward when our labour is acceptable to him, when it’s not just being involved but generating results.
Please note: you don’t have to remind God of your works, he remembers by himself. We don’t have to remind God of our works, he remembers by himself. God is committed to rewarding reapers and not just participants. John 4:36. If you’re a reaper and an avowed ingatherer, you have committed God to your wages – you don’t have to remind him. Church Gist. Keep your side of the covenant, his part is ever sure. That my daughter heard this Word from Zechariah 7:13 – You will hear me first, align with my commandment first and you have committed my integrity to perform my Word. If nothing about me moves you nothing about you moves me. He’s not a father Christmas God.
- May we be awake in the month of June to taking our covenant responsibility in our walk with this covenant keeping God. You won’t have to remind him.
Keep your part of the deal, you have already committed him. Hear what he said, “Have you considered my servant Job?” Job 1:8. He brags about his servants not preachers, not leaders – servants. By operating on that platform, it launched him (Job) into fortune – Job 29:6. So serving God launches men into realms of fortunes. Job 1:1-3, 8-9, Job 29:4-17. Church Gist. Serving God and the interest of his kingdom launches men into fortune. We are in our year of fortune. There is a fortune package reserved for every winner this year. God doesn’t play with words, he doesn’t speak idle words. People are already swimming into it, people are diving into it, please, it’s your turn!
Sir, people serving God are not permitted to be plagued by misfortune. Commit! Like many other people in this Church, I have never had a need that needed human being to supply it. Church Gist. So I have not been to anyone’s home to ask for any form of help or make a call to anyone on the phone. Serving God productively launches people into realms of fortune. Don’t play with those words. Serving God with results launches men into realms of fortune.
There was a time we were having some wonderful package of salaries, 300 naira in a month, yet we didn’t lack. “Thou shall serve and He shall bless.” Church Gist. When God bless your five loaves and two fishes, you’ll be eating forever. You’ll be eating forever when He blesses your five loaves and two fishes, you’ll be eating forever. “Thou shall serve, I shall bless” Exodus 23:25-26. Church Gist. You’ll see amazing testimonies of miracle fruitfulness here, miracle babies here, liftings here, longevity testimonies here.
- You won’t miss your portion.
So, serving God fruitfully, which results from serving God faithfully. Only the faithful can be fruitful. The faithful shall be fruitful in the land. Church Gist. If you’re not faithfully committed to an assignment, you can’t be fruitful in the pursuit of it.
- It’s your turn!
Now, let’s look at it. What makes a servant? In Biblical terms, it’s obedience. Whosoever you submit yourself to, you’re his servant. Romans 6:16. So, the hallmark of servanthood is obedience and so, He called Abraham His servant because he was Abraham the Obedient. Church Gist. “Get thee out of thy country and so Abraham departed. Now, look to the North, the South, the East and the West, all the land you see I’ll give you. You’ll walk through the length of it and the breadth of it and I’ll give them to you and Abraham removed his tent” (Genesis) Chapter 12, he departed. Chapter 13, He asked him to depart again. He walked through that whole length, he didn’t drive, he didn’t ride a horse. He walked through. Obedience. Genesis 17:10,23. As soon as God finished speaking, Abraham began. Church Gist. Genesis 22:2. Abraham took Isaac early in the morning, he was on his way. It’s not all this grammar that makes a servant. Raw, prompt, timely, willful obedience, delightsome obedience.
“Okay, pray for souls to be saved” No way. “Reach out to souls” No way. “This is the flier”. “Yeah, I don’t need it” and then you say “God, remember” Remember what? To remember your disobedience? No, no! There are many things you’ll never need to pray for in your life that you’ll just obey God into. Church Gist. Your obedience will launch you into them. “If you will diligently hearken unto my voice and observe to do all that I command you, you won’t need to pray on it. I will set you on high above all nations of the Earth” Deuteronomy 28:1.
- It’s your turn.
- May this month mark a new dawn in our walk with God.
- May it mark a new dawn in your own walk with God.
We serve a covenant keeping God, not a Father Christmas God. He is the King of kings not King of babies. Malachi 3:17,18. God is going to begin to make a difference between those who are serving Him and those who are having fun. Church Gist. We have 4 weeks to go for each one to demonstrate where his heart is. 4 weeks to go for each of us in the Winners Family to demonstrate where our heart is. 4 weeks to go to pray down souls into the Kingdom, to pray down souls into the Church for establishment. 4 weeks to go to sow seeds that must generate into harvest. 4 weeks to go to work the work that God will remember by Himself, 4 weeks to go. Church Gist. For God to operate on you and restore your health, 4 weeks to go. For your fortune package to answer from Heaven, 4 weeks to go. God does not remember your notes, He remembers your works which you have shown towards His name in that you served His interest and still serving, that’s the meaning.
-May each one succeed in delivering what God will remember to reward.
It’s our time of opportunity, we can’t afford to trash it.
-In the precious name of Jesus, no one’s labour here shall be fruitless and no fruitful labour here will lack open rewards.
-In the name of Jesus, no one’s labour in our spiritual family, the Winners Family Worldwide will be fruitless and no fruitful labour will lack open rewards. Church Gist. Your fruitful labour will not lack open rewards in the name of Jesus.
According to Scriptures, turning many to righteous makes stars, not connection. Turning many to righteousness makes stars in the Kingdom. You don’t have to be white or black. Church Gist. Turning many to righteousness. You don’t have to live in a first class world or last class world. Turning many to righteousness in any part of this world makes stars of believers. Daniel 12:3.
- no one among us will finish his race as a mediocre.
You’re redeemed as a city set on a hill that cannot be hid. You’re redeemed and I am redeemed as the light of the world showing the world where to go. Church Gist. We are in the last days where the world will be learning from the Church the way to get things done. God is out to humble the pride of the world by making them run out of solution across the nations. You’ll find people doing some funny things that don’t count and don’t make meaning because they are running out of solution. Micah 4:1-2. Church Gist. It’s not a political statement, it’s a divine verdict, it’s a divine agenda. Sir, no matter what the world does, no matter their technology, they will return back to Church, “please, show us the way to do it”. Machine can’t think for you, there’s no wise machine. It’s man’s wisdom translated into technology that they call machine. Praise God! Something is coming down from Heaven and one of the ways to come is by we walking with Jesus. Church Gist. He that walks with the wise shall be wise, so walking in the wisdom of the power of God makes you super wise. The kind of wisdom you operate in cannot be found in the land of the living. That’s where the Lord is leading to Church to, so get committed to serving God.
When you’re on His mission, He guarantees you His partnership. “Lo! I’m with you always even till the end of the age”. Church Gist. You’re involved with the Great Commission, you have secured His partnership and walking with Jesus makes us wise as Him.
- you’re in for the best of time!
Certain things will begin to happen in your life and you’ll be wondering from where. In terms of insight and foresight. Church Gist. Seeing afar off by walking with God who knows the end from the beginning. You’re seeing afar off. You hear me say most of the times, “I’m not surprised we are where we are but I’ll be surprised if we’re not there”. You know why? Because I saw afar off that “by doing what I asked you to do, watch, I’m taking you somewhere. You can’t see the end of it but keep following me”.
- may we all receive grace to keep following.
- I pray that this month will be the most consecrated of our lives till date.
- I pray that the kind of steps we will be taking with Jesus from now will be a surprise to ourselves.
- I pray that anyone whose heart is willing to will come under unusual grace that will get you so connected to God in the name of Jesus.
- the month of June is hereby declared your month of New dawn! Your month of new beginning! Your month of experiencing the strange works and the strange hand of God! Your month of being made revealed to your world as a wonder! Your month of awesome surprises in the name of Jesus! May nothing distract your attention from working with Jesus! Church Gist. May you never find yourself in a shrine tomorrow! May you not be pulled after native doctors tomorrow! May your authority not be thrashed by the devil!
Stand to your feet everybody.
- come on, give the Lord a big hand of praise.
🎵When I remember His covenant, I shout Hallelujah🎵
Now, Praise Team, take us in that song and we are going to be dancing before the Lord. Church Gist. His covenant is surer than the day. No circumstance under Heaven can tamper with it. “Until you can stop the day and the night, you can’t stop my covenant from working”. You can’t serve God and not have things to show. You can’t serve God and the world will not see that you’re serving Him. Church Gist. Now, I will like you to sing that song with a renewed vow to stay committed, dedicated and sacrificial in your stewardship. It’s a month of results that will culminate with open rewards.
—Singing—
As you have spoken in my ears, saith the Lord, even so will I do unto you. It’s your month of going higher. Church Gist. Scaling new heights, going above the shadows in the name of Jesus!
Please stretch forth your hands and ask the Holy Ghost to breathe upon our outreach materials, our tracts one more time for the flier for tomorrow’s service, ‘Winning Invisible Battles’. Church Gist. Holy Ghost, breathe upon these materials, let them ring convictions, bring about conversions and massive ingathering of souls into Church tomorrow to meet with you for their desired change of story, for their establishment in the faith in the name of Jesus. Church Gist. Do that right now in Jesus’ precious name we have prayed.
Just before we share the goodness, I’m not doing what I’m doing because I’m a Pastor, I’ve been doing so before I ever had a call to ministry – commitment to promoting the interest of the Kingdom, principally through soulwinning and a crave to see souls established in the faith. Church Gist. I wasn’t doing that because I was a Pastor, I was no Pastor. I just caught the light that “if you seek my Kingdom first, I will surprise you by adding to you all other things that others are dying to get”.
- that misfortune, may your fortune package reserved for the year 2024 find some full blown expression this month as you set your heart to pursue after God in truth and in deed.
You won’t need to tell anybody that your story has changed, the world will see it. Joseph didn’t have to announce that he had a change of story, they just saw him on the screen addressing the nation. Church Gist. Can you imagine? A prisoner, a non indigene by the story-changing God. Expect something striking and outstanding in your life this month. God is a covenant keeping God. He never lies. You have done one, go for the second. You have done two, go for the second, just keep going. God won’t stop doing what He says He will do. As we ministered and do minister, He keeps remembering our labour and what more? It speaks to your generation after you. Church. “A man that fears my name and delights in my commandments, his seeds shall be mighty upon the earth, the generation of the upright shall be blessed”. So, it goes beyond you. Serving God goes to impact your generation after you like we saw in Abraham. Church Gist. Your generation after you will draw from it, will draw from your faithfulness today. - there shall be no vagabond in your lineage!
- There shall be no drug addict in your lineage!
- There shall be no nuisance in your lineage!
- lift up your two hands and give God thanks for giving you a marching order for the month of June.
