NEVER CONCLUDE ON YOURSELF BECAUSE GOD HAS NOT CONCLUDED ON YOU
IT IS NOT OVER UNTIL GOD SAYS IT IS OVER AND GOD WILL NOT SAY IT IS OVER UNTIL YOU WIN.
THE END OF THE DAY MAY NOT BE THE END OF THE GAME, YOU MAY LOSE A BATTLE AND STILL WIN THE WAR.
THE DEVIL FIGHTS WHAT HE FEARS. IF YOUR DESTINY IS CONSEQUENTIAL, IT WILL BE CONFRONTED.
LET GOD BE YOUR SOURCE AND MAN CAN BE YOUR CHANNEL, GOD CAN PASS THROUGH MAN TO DO ANYTHING FOR YOU, BUT DON’T LET THE MAN BE THE ONE YOU’RE LOOKING UP TO.
EVEN IF IT MEANS STARTING AFRESH, REFUSE TO GIVE UP, WHATEVER IT IS, REFUSE TO GIVE UP AND IF YOU REFUSE TO GIVE UP YOU WILL JUST GO UP.
NOTHING IS AGAINST YOU IF YOU’RE NOT AGAINST YOURSELF.
- Dr Pastor Paul Enenche on “EMOTIONAL DISEASES” || Dunamis International Gospel Centre|| 1st service.
II. Failure to succeed or prevail after repeated attempts, efforts or trials.
This means that; I have applied for a job in this country since I graduated 12 years ago and I have not gotten a job, so forget about it. There is nothing that can come out of it. I have attempted relationships ten times, there are no good men, or there are no good women, failure to succeed or prevail in particular ventures, after repeated attempts, efforts or trials, many people become hopeless. They say we should tithe I tithed; I didn’t see any result. ChurchGist. They say we should go on evangelism I did; I didn’t see any result, they say we should do this, I did it but I did not see any result, that’s the lie of the devil. Micah 7:8. Don’t conclude on me because God has not concluded on me. Never conclude on yourself because God has not concluded on you, someone once said; it is not over until God is over. And I added and say it is not over until God says it is over and God will not say it is over until you win.
In the game of life, God is the referee, he will not blow the whistle for the game to end until you have won. The end of the day may not be the end of the game, you may lose a battle and still win the war. Battles are the fight inside the overall war, the battle of this and the battle of that, you may lose a particular battle and win the overall war. ChurchGist. We are called to fight but destined to win, the fight is not news. What is crucial is that the win is compulsory. We are wired to win.
I’m speaking to somebody here; I don’t care how many times you attempted and failed. ChurchGist. Thomas Edison attempted a thousand times or ten thousand times to manufacture the light bulb, what we are enjoying right now and someone told him you’ve failed ten thousand times, he said no I’ve not failed ten thousand times, I’ve only discovered ten thousand ways in which it does not work and after that he prevailed.
Albert Einstein’s mother one day called her son and she said; son, your classroom teacher said that you’re such a very intelligent child, that it is not good to mix you with the other children in the class, that you need expert coaching, so that you can be outstanding above your contemporaries. So, from this day onward you won’t be going to school, I will teach you myself. So, that it can come to pass. ChurchGist. She taught that young man and he became the number one scientist in the world of his day.
When this boy grew and became this scientist that is when he realized what the teacher really wrote. The mother read the opposite of what the teacher wrote. The teacher said; your son is so bad that we can’t keep him in school. We are unable to handle him, please you may have to teach him yourself and he was sent away from school. If the mother gave up on the child like the teacher gave up, then that destiny would have been lost. ChurchGist. I read a Book titled “ACRES OF DIAMONDS”, Russell Conwell, the founder of Temple University, a Christian man. In the days of the gold rush, people were selling their lands and properties to go and buy gold. People were digging the ground to get gold. A man tried to dig his property but he could not find gold and he left and he sold the property and went to look for other properties to buy to look for gold. The next buyer who bought his land only hit his land one more time and he found gold, he just hit it from where the man stopped and there was gold.
The man sold the land and gave up one more step to meet up gold. I’m speaking to you about what I know. I’m announcing to somebody here today, it is too early to give up, it is too early to give up and to say I have tried, I have done this and I have done that. ChurchGist. One of the men that came to give his testimony. What was he exporting to the UK? Pepper. The first pepper he exported, he washed it with soap and it was corrupted, they rejected it in the UK after exportation, he exported the second time it didn’t work, he tried it up to twelve times, it was the thirteenth one that worked. He sold everything to do the first export at that time and then it worked. Since that time till today, he has flown over nine aircrafts, that is like the way you change cars.
Lift your right hand and say in the name of Jesus, I will not give up, I cannot give up, I shall not give up, I refuse to give up.
III. Repeated disappointment or failure from people, especially where faith and confidence is not placed wholly in God.
People may atimes become hopeless, when they place their confidence in man and the man fails. I’m sure you know that another name for man is change, especially man that does not know God. Jeremiah 17:5-7. ChurchGist. Many are hopeless today because they say I have a brother who is a senator, I have a brother in America, I have this and that, but nothing worked and they became hopeless, the only person they relied on is man, you will be permanently hopeless.
But they looked up to him, they were enlightened and they were not put to shame. Psalm 34:5. When I was going to get married, my wife was the Doctor of the First Lady of a State, she was the medical doctor. ChurchGist. They even flew to Germany when the woman was sick on the presidential jet, a young girl in the presidential jet then and our wedding was coming near. And the people dedicated interest that they would be coming and all of that, all manner of imagination was in your mind, like how they would arrive, what is the potential and input to the wedding, I think it was two weeks before the wedding before the government changed, they were out of power. Hello! So, they were facing more important matters than the wedding. You know in those days when government changes (it was the military government regime) that was disappointment number one. Somebody who was doing a government contract at that time, he promised that he would do something major for the wedding when they pay him money, the payment came a long time after the wedding had passed. That was disappointment number two.
When you look at us you would think we have not seen anything and everything is just smooth and normal. Disappointment number three, there was fuel scarcity. I was expecting a big man of God from the North East, another one from the South West, another one from the South South. All of them apologized on the phone, they said I’m so sorry. I saw one of them ten years after the wedding. In Nigeria they will say “wahala dey”. ChurchGist. The reception venue we were to use did not work; it was as if all things were working together for bad. It was after we got married and I saw what God is doing and I knew what the devil was afraid of. The devil fights what he fears. If your destiny is consequential, it will be confronted.
I prophesy to somebody here, everybody and every fight confronting your destiny, it is over. There are other things I cannot tell you now. They are so personal, I can’t tell you know, at the right time if it is possible, I can tell you.
Lift up your right hand and say I’m looking up to God, I refuse to look up to man. My future is with God, it is not in the hand of a man. I will look up to God and I will be lightened and my face will never be ashamed, I will fulfil my destiny, I will fulfil the purpose of God for my life.
What is the treatment of this hopeless situation?
A. Keep hope alive by continuously charging up with the Word.
Hope is kept alive by a continuous charging up with the Word. Psalm 119:49,81,114-116.
Beloved, charge yourself up with a message such as this and other faith building and impacting messages. You’ll charge yourself with the Word.
B. Refuse to place your confidence in man. Confidence must be placed only in God alone.
Jeremiah 17:5-7. Confidence must be placed in God. Psalm 118:8-9. The problem is not that man is totally bad, the thing is that man is subject to change. A man can say I will do this for you but the circumstances around his life may change, like the other one I shared with you. Man can fail but the worst of it is, which we don’t like is that man can die. Therefore, hope must be placed in God because God cannot fail. ChurchGist. He cannot change and of course he cannot die. He’s tireless and weariless. Let God be your source and man can be your channel, God can pass through man to do anything for you, but don’t let the man be the one you’re looking up to. When you make a channel to become a source, when the channel is attacked, your resources are attacked.
A family was in a bad situation. They lost the head of the house to terrorism and somebody took responsibility to assist them in many ways, when I got to hear, I wanted to assist them and the person did not want any other person to assist them except himself. ChurchGist. So, I backed off, in the process of time he became increasingly unable to do what he was doing. He wasn’t a bad person but his resources got attacked and he couldn’t continue. So, we had to step in.
When you make a channel to become a source, when the channel is attacked, your resources are attacked.
C. You must refuse the plague of weariness.
You must refuse to be the victim of weariness. I’m tired, I can’t continue. Galatians 6:9. Job 14:14. I’m not giving up, I’m not giving in, I’m not giving out and I won’t give way, I’m here. Like they say in Nigeria “I DEY”. Somebody say with me; I refuse to give up, I refuse to give in, I refuse to give out, I refuse to give way until I go up. Whenever you give up, you’ve agreed to go down. Say with me; I refuse to give up because I cannot go down. ChurchGist. Even if it means starting afresh, refuse to give up, whatever it is, refuse to give up and if you refuse to give up you will just go up.
The man whose father refused to send him to school and he had no opportunity to go to school until he was age 30 and he decided that he must go to school. So, at age 30 he was in primary one, everybody was mocking him. What kind of big man (not a big boy) in primary one. He finished primary school at the age of 36 and entered secondary school and he finished at the age of 42 and he entered first degree and he finished his first degree at the age of 46. He went for his masters and he finished at the age of 48. He went straight for his PhD and he finished at the age of 51. The main question is how many people who went to school on time have a PhD at the age of 51.
So, nothing is against you if you’re not against yourself. The only agreement that you need on earth is the agreement with God. God is the one whose single vote is enough for you to win an election. The vote of one, if God has voted for you, it doesn’t matter who has voted against you, you’ve already won. If God be for us, who can be against us? ChurchGist. If you agree or not the preaching has been done. We are going to celebrate, I’ll like you to celebrate like somebody who has hope, somebody whose story has already changed. When man rules, God overrules.
There are threat, terroristic attack in the air which has dissipated, which will never see the light of the day. In the middle of threat, we were in the headquarters of terrorism, Maiduguri, dealing with demons of terrorism and dealing with the forces. ChurchGist. While we were there someone said; are we doing to show this live? Let us show it later after we have left, so that they are not aware that we are there now. Because they all watch television too and social media, it was aired on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and Television, Dunamis Tv and Dove Tv. He said, let us finish the Job and go first. In some people’s heart, if you put a cocoyam, it will cook.
With all our exploit is Maiduguri and they say we cannot function in Abuja, the devil that says Church will not hold in this City and in this Nation, that devil has not been born yet. Any spirit of cowardice that keeps you at home, the devil can determine when to go to Church. For the earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof, their altars of bloodshed, we set them on fire. The devil said Nigeria will scatter in 2015 yet we are here. ChurchGist. They said Coro will finish millions on the street, we are still here. Joel 2:21. Ezekiel 20:38. It is victory time, what God is set to do in our Nation in this season, one billion devil, one billion sponsors of terror, one billion terrorist and their blood sucking demon can’t nullify it. We’re here for the long hall. There is a prophecy on Nigeria for the end time evangelization of the earth and no devil can stop it. Let us celebrate now.
The best way to handle the devil is that anything he wants you to do, just do the opposite. My Baby was telling me yesterday, she said, “daddy you get heart o”. She said “abeg take it easy small”. She said; your love for God is very strong.
Let’s go ahead and give God the praise. Father, we give you the praise and the adoration.
