- Between now and the 40th Anniversary, my God will decorate everyone that chooses to go all out for Him supernaturally.
- No one here will arrive at this 40th Anniversary without his own Liberation Testimony.
- We are in a very highly prophetic season.
- All that will respond to these prophetic pointers will have great stories to tell and that includes you.
Let’s give Him thanks for hearing us and sending us speed this year both as a Church and as individuals. Give God thanks, in words, don’t mutter words. If you believe He heard you this morning, respond with thanksgiving. Thank Him also for those amazing testimonies!!!
Something very striking happened from those testimonies this morning:
“Within my two weeks of engagement, a multi-national consulting firm called me: at the point where my wife was giving me pocket money, paying house rent for the family and servicing the home with food. I heard somebody’s testimony and I said, ‘I am getting in there, I am plugging into it’ because there are no private testimonies in the Kingdom.” (documented testimony).
Within 2 weeks of my rigorous engagement, not casual, my miracle came with mouth watering packages. Everything turned around within 2 weeks. We serve a God of speed.
That my daughter shared, she waited 3 years, up until 2015, began to pray, “Oh God, open my womb.” Then heard the testimonies of others, she decided to follow their footsteps and began praying Kingdom Advancement prayers (documented testimony). By the time she went for pregnancy test, she was confirmed pregnant, only 2 weeks into that engagement.
-Between now and the 40th Anniversary, my God will decorate everyone that chooses to go all out for Him supernaturally in the name of Jesus because we serve the God of speed.
The testimony of Wigglesworth gave me my place of authority over all devils. I never met him, I read that testimony and understood Ephesians 2:6 and Ephesians 1:20-21; my ‘Far Above’ mentality came alive and today by His grace, I rule over all devils. I am telling you the truth.
-In the name of Jesus, may these testimonies quicken your pure heart, to engage with God, no longer casually. In the name of Jesus.
Those who will do those things, they know on the spot, as the testimony is landing, they know, that is me, that is me God is talking to.
-No one here will arrive at this 40th Anniversary without his own Liberation Testimony, without her own Liberation Testimony, without his own change of story testimony. Let Your Amen indicate speed, let it portray confidence, let it portray confidence in God, in the name of Jesus. So shall it be.
We’ve been talking of the God of speed, now we saw Him in action: 2 weeks. I don’t know why they lined up together, 2 weeks. This one (first documented testimony) 2 weeks, the other one – 2 weeks. It means there is a 2-week package for you.
As many as touched Him were made perfectly whole based on the woman with the issue of blood testimony (Matthew 14:36). They all plugged into it and as many as touched the hem of His garment were made perfectly whole. They didn’t know anything was there but the testimony of that woman showed them, ‘Your Own is There!’
So everyone possessed with devils that touched his garment, the devils left them.
Everyone oppressed with sickness and disease, everyone with terminal disease touched the hem of his garment and they were set free.
Testimonies are pointers to your package. They are pointers to your heritage. Don’t just be entertained by them, be instructed by them!! Don’t just be informed, be instructed. Don’t just be enlightened, be instructed. Church Gist. Don’t reduce yourself to a point where you are just being entertained by it, be instructed by it.
We are in a very highly prophetic season, all that will respond to these prophetic pointers will have great stories to tell and that includes you.
ENGAGING THE GOD OF SPEED THROUGH THE ALTAR OF PRAYERS
Within 2 years, the God of speed took over the whole of Asia through the Ministry of Paul (Acts 19:8-20). The summary is that within 2 years, all that dwelt in Asia heard the Word of the Lord. Great, amazing move of the Spirit.
The good news is we serve the God of speed.
One day, 2 towns turned to the Lord by one miracle as the Holy Ghost heralded the news across the 2 towns. All that dwelt in Saron and Lydda turned to the Lord by the hand of the speed (Acts 9:35). All that dwelt in Lydda and Saron saw this miracle of the impotent man that never walked and turned to the Lord. The God of speed is still at work today in the midst of His people.
He will one more time show us that He is still on the throne because between now and the 40th Anniversary of this Commission that begins on the 2nd of May, we are going to see the kind of multitude flock into this Church in droves and abide here beyond what we have ever seen and it is starting this Sunday.
Innumerable multitude will be flocking here in droves, in response to the prayers of the saints and the light on how to invoke the God of speed. We shall it happen. God who could rake a whole continent within 2 years will rake a city in one day. We will see this God in action.
And that happened by the Word of the Lord (Acts 19:20). The Word was going forth night and day in one school of Tyrannus, so that within 2 years all that dwelt in all of Asia heard the Word of the Lord. Church Gist. The Word is brewing in this place by the hand of God who gave the Word and so we are set for another phase of explosion.
It’s not just prayers that invoke the hand of the God of speed but the prayer of faith. The Prayer of Faith. We saw this illustration in James chapter 5 verse 15. Elijah was a man of like passion, he prayed the prayer of faith (James 5:17). God of speed showed up, the whole of Israel turned away from baal to the living God as fire answered speedily on Mount Carmel.
The fire that turn cites to the Lord is about to fall again and it is falling this time. The fire that turn cities to the Lord and nations to the Lord is falling this time.
The priests of baal came since morning and began calling on their god of slow motion from morning till evening; no answer, no sound, no voice (1 Kings 18:23-24). Elijah stepped out and within moments, the prayer of faith opened the heavens and the fire of the Lord fell. To show it came from the Lord, it swallowed the stone, licked the water, the burnt offering turned to ashes, to show it is not natural fire, it is fire from Heaven. The God of speed showed up within moments and the whole of Israel began to scream, “Ah, the Lord is God” (1 Kings 18:39).
That’s the God of speed for you, He will show up again.
-In our midst, He will show up again.
-In your life, He will show up again.
-There are many people, within 2 weeks He will change your story.
2 weeks of fervent engagement on the prayer altar, 2 weeks of passionate pursuits after souls. Instead of looking for these things for 10 years, engage according to His Word, He will turn your story around. Every reliable, ever sure.
Every testimony you hear before the Lord is exactly as they are written by those who sent them in. It must happen in your own life.
But expectation is what gives value to our intercession. What is Faith in the first instance? Faith is the substance of things expected (Hebrews 11:1). What faith does is to substantiate expectation into manifestation. What faith does is to trigger manifestations based on your expectation. No expectation, no faith. The substance of faith is our expectation (Proverbs 23:18).
It takes expectation for your intercession to be fruitful.
The servant of Abraham prayed for speed and took steps to see his expectation turn to manifestation (Genesis 24:12, 14-15,19-20).
“I will also give your camels also” – they had never met, the prayer was answered with speed but actualized with his expectation.
Set your expectation right, it’s your turn to experience the hand of the God of speed in your life.
Why not? It is important for you to also ask, “Lord send speed on my prayer altar that whatever I ask of you in advancing your Kingdom will be answered with speed.”
“Lord, grant me speed every day in this prophetic season that whosoever I reach out to will be convicted and converted. Whosoever I invite will respond with speed to come into your house.”
You do that from your heart, you engage genuinely, the God of speed will show up in your life.
It’s no big deal for God to double the attendance of this Church between now and the 40th Anniversary. We shall see it again. He has done it before, He will do it again. The God of speed is in our midst, we can’t doubt that, in the lives of individuals, in the life of the Church. The God of speed is right seated in our midst, may His presence make the difference in your own life.
He is the God of speed and He answers our prayers when we seek Him with all our hearts (Jeremiah 29:13).
No casual engagement but hearty engagement, heart rooted engagement, highly expectant engagement.
Prayer: Lord, I want to see You too like others have seen you. I want to see You, the God of speed in my life. Engrace me to engage in advancing your Kingdom with all my heart and with the whole of my desire.
Call for that grace. He is no respecter of persons: what He says to one, He says to all; what He does for one, He will do for another. Our God is no respecter of persons, He is not a robber, He is not a user. He is the Glory and the Lifter up of your head, He is the story changer. He is still changing stories today.
-It is your turn to experience a change of story.
He is still changing stories today. It is your turn to experience a change of story!
-Your story is next on the line. Amen.
-Your story is next on the line for a dramatic change.
Thank You Father, take all the praise in Jesus precious name.
Sunday is our Covenant Day of Business Breakthroughs.
-In the name of Jesus, no more failure in our endeavours.
- No more stagnation in our engagement.
- No one here shall be grounded again.
When you choose to obey Him, you have committed Him to change your story.
-He will change your story, all your mockers will see it and turn to the Lord!!!
SPEAK TO THE DAY
Let every prayer I pray today, for souls to be saved, for souls to be established in the faith, be answered with speed.
Let everyone I reach out to today respond with speed in the name of Jesus.
Speak to the day: It’s your day. It is the day the Lord has made, you shall rejoice and be glad in it.
-No evil report.
-No emergency coming your way.
-It’s a day of testimonies. Celebrate Him.
