I HAVE NEVER HAD A RETHINK DOING WHAT I AM DOING
WHEN YOU INSULT ME, I GET ENERGIZED. IT’S A CATALYST, THAT WHAT I AM DOING IS HITTING THE devil. SO I JUST KEEP DOING IT.
PLEASE, GET ON THE GO FOR JESUS. THE BENEFITS ARE OUT OF THIS WORLD, INESTIMABLE.
-Bishop David Oyedepo at Covenant Hour of Prayer|| 20th October, 2022.
Hallelujah. Please lift up your two hands this morning and let’s give God thanks one more time for answered prayers. Let’s give Him thanks for the grace granted to us to be in His presence this morning. Let’s magnify Him. There’s no one like our God, He reigns forever and ever. Give Him praise.
And all the people came early in the morning for to hear Him. Now ask Him, Speak to me Jesus this morning. I’ve come also to hear from You. Speak to me again this morning, I’ve come also to hear from You. Speak to me again this morning I’ve come also to hear from You. Thank You Heavenly Father. In Jesus precious name we have prayed.
Every word from the Lord is a treasure, comparable to a costly pearl. It carries heavy value. It can somersault anyone like that young man into a place far beyond our dreams. He sent a word to Jacob and turned him into a nation. One word. When the word of Joseph came, he was everything turned. Everything turned. Everything turned. We pick that word and we engage with it, we call it wisdom and when wisdom comes to play, glory is what results.
In the precious name of Jesus, no one’s life will suffer any form of shame anymore!
Thank You Heavenly Father.
And now as we have prayed, speak to us this morning and let Your name be glorified, in Jesus precious name.
Please get seated, give the Lord a big hand of praise.
ENGAGING BIBLICAL MENTALITY IN STEWARDSHIP.
Thinking in line with Scriptures regarding stewardship. Lining up with Biblical virtues that accompany stewardship. Like we know God is not looking for who to use, He’s looking for who to bless. He’s not looking for who to humiliate, He’s looking for who to honor. He’s not looking for who to let down, He’s looking for who to lift. As a man thinks in his heart, so is he. Our thoughts are behind our take in life. When you think in line with Scriptures, it will eventually create a future. Among the vital mentalities required for us to line up with in stewardship, is a PARTNERSHIP MENTALITY.
Everyone on the go for Christ, is in partnership with Him. In delivering the Great Commission, Jesus said, Go to all the world and preach the Gospel, whosoever believes and is baptized shall be saved and Go teach them all things whatsoever you have heard of Me. Lo, I am with you always.
Engaging with the Great Commission secures for us divine partnership. It’s the greatest of all the blessings that there is in the Great Commission. Getting on the go for Christ to reach out to the lost in every form and in any form – Biblical form – secures for us divine presence that will make all the difference under all circumstances.
Mark 16:15, 20 The Lord working with them, conforming the words with signs following. Partnership. God’s presence equals signs and wonders. The unusual begin to happen when we secure His presence. Zephaniah 3:17. His presence equals a display of His might and strength. The Lord was their sanctuary, disease saw them and fled. God’s presence equals miracles, signs and wonders. Church Gist. His presence emates miracles, signs and wonders. So when we are on the go for Him we secure His presence which equals a supernatural lifestyle. All those testimonies are manifestation of His presence. They didn’t have itu til they began to get in the go for Him. And when they got on the go, He showed up. He always shows up. Church Gist. You know, that’s the testimony they shared here, “And God showed up…” Because He was there!
He will show up to many more this time as we begin to engage with this mentality!. Serving God entitles me to His presence.
Partnership with Christ makes a believer more than a conqueror. He appointed 70 others also and they went forth and came back saying, “Even devils were subject to us in Your name.” Luke 10:1.
When He sends, He goes with you. When He goes with you, devils bow at your instance. My presence gave to you power to tread over serpents and scorpions and over all power of the enemy. Nothing shall by any means hurt you. It makes us more than conquerors! Church Gist. Partnership with Christ makes a believer more than a conqueror. This is not theoretical, this is real. This is real.
You can’t be defeated in battle until you miss His presence. His presence guarantees continuous triumph. Psalms 24:7.
Every barrier lifts up thier heads for Him. I mean, they can’t stand. So it’s not just about bread and butter. Church Gist. It’s about triumphant living. His presence guarantees triumphant living.
The last defeat anyone of us has suffered is the last we will handle!
Romans 8:31. If God be for us, goodness and mercy becomes the order of the day in our lives. For in His presence is fullness of joy, at His right hand, pleasures forever more. Fullness of joy!
So anybody actively engaging with Christ and the interest of His kingdom, never runs out of joy. And by experiencing that joy, he gains access to unlimited revelations. Because you draw water out of the wells of salvation through joy.
With joy you enjoy divine health. That’s why I said a faithful ambassador is entitled to healthy living. Because there’s joy all the time. There’s joy in heaven over one soul that repents and so whatever a man sows that shall he reap. You sow joy to heaven, you reap heavenly joy on the earth.
No one here shall be a victim of depression anymore! Let me hear your loudest Amen!
The 70 returned with joy! That’s the order. Getting on the go for Jesus exempts you from the depressing forces hovering the entire earth. You can’t feel it!
A new day for us! It’s a new day for us!
Now partnership with Christ, empoweres believers with boldness and confidence in stewardship. I’m not serving the church, I’m not serving the pastor, I’m in partnership with Jesus.
That my daughter said, Jesus you’re the one they’re talking to. If God is so good, why has He not given you children? God, you’re the one they’re talking to. They don’t know we came here together. She went again the following Sunday and God showed up. Yes, I went with you, they didn’t know. She became pregnant.
Whatever they mock you about, will be one thing they will envy you about! Why? Because you are conscious of your partnership with Jesus.
Can I testify before the church this morning? I’ve not sat down by myself one day, and said oh God what is this ‘wahala’? What is all this for God’s sake? Help me out. I’ve never had a rethink doing what I’m doing. When you insult me, I get energized. It’s a catalyst that what I’m doing is hitting the devil, so I just keep doing it. Church Gist. Please, get on the go for Jesus. The benefits are not of this world, inestimable. His presence is the greatest asset of every believer. His presence is our greatest asset in the journey of life. Amen.
Psalms 23:4. It eliminates fear. Praise God. Awesome God. So you can imagine a fear-free life, a joyful life! And the consciousness of His presence that makes you more than a conqueror. You just keep doing it.
Next Sunday is our Financial Fortune banquet. And this church has a global identity of prosperity. Whatever person remains in the valley of lack and want will come out instantly. You don’t have 10 children and wish that one success and the other fail. 3 John 1:2. Deuteronomy 15 :6.
And this coming Sunday, the pathway to it that we call wisdom, He will show it to us. Isaiah 55:8. And everyone will make that right choice to walk in it. It’s real! It’s touchable! It’s ‘handle-able’! And it’s never late for anyone to come on board.
You are coming out of that thing forever! And it will impact on your generations after you! In the precious name of Jesus Christ! So shall it be!
Boldness is one of the virtues engaged in commanding signs and wonders. Acts 14:3. Not in theirselves, or in their capacity or ability. In the Lord! God sent me and I know! So, be free in the name of Jesus!
You go and pray for those people you are reaching to with confidence in God. Church Gist. Not confidence in self. You keep making your boast in the Lord: He’s with me right here! And when I pray, He hears. 1 John 5:14.
My prayer is that no one will loose the mentality of His partnership with Christ in stewardship! Stay on!
His presence in the midst of the church is behind all the happenings. Not any body’s skill or expertise or strength. When His presence dominates your life too, things will be happening of thier own accord.
New day for you! New hour for you! We have been celebrating God at Covenant University since Monday, and it’s so clear. Come and see the works of God. That’s the theme. It’s not our works, Come and see the works of God. And it’s awesome. And stress free. Pressure free. We God is not on break or vacation. He’s no respecter of persons, if you carry His presence, you’ll be seeing the same thing.
Stand to your feet. Serving His interest is being in partnership with Him. Lord help me to maintain this mentality in my stewardship and help me to stay, standing stronger by the day in serving the interest of your kingdom which is salvation of souls.
John 3:16
My serving same interest secures for me His presence and that would make all the difference at all times. Help me Jesus! To be steadfast, always abounding in the works of the Lord. So I can enjoy your presence all the days of my life. Church Gist. You can’t tell when this word will come to you again. It has come today. As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.
I’m not serving God for things, I’m just serving God to enjoy the fulness of His presence which will make a difference in all areas of my life. And empower me for dominion over all circumstances of life. Church Gist. So help me Jesus. Help me Jesus. Help me Jesus. Help me Jesus. And help me Jesus.
In Jesus precious name.
For everyone on the go for Christ in the altar of prayer, and in every way we are serving God, may you continue to enjoy His presence. And His presence always makes a difference in every one’s life. So shall it be! You’ll never know sorrow again! The joy that accompanies stewardship will become your portion for life! You’ll never suffer depression anymore! It shall be joy unspeakable, full of glory all the days of your life! No more emotional breakdown! No more physical breakdown! No spiritual breakdown! You’ll be on the eagle’s wings! All the days of your life!
