IF ALL YOU DO IS TO COME TO CHURCH AND WRITE NOTES BUT YOU WON’T TAKE NOTE OF THE THINGS YOU’RE REQUIRED TO DO, YOU’RE ONLY INCREASING YOUR VOCABULARY

The proof of love is obedience and we also have the spirit of love that engraces us to flow in delightsome obedience. John 14:21. 2 Timothy 1:7. So, there’s the spirit of love that collaborates with the spirit of obedience to make us delightsomely obedient. Church Gist. Abraham was a friend of God – love and obedience was natural with him because when you’re in love, obedience becomes a natural sequence. Therefore, receive this morning a fresh release of the spirit of love. With those two forces at work, obedience becomes a delight. Church Gist. You don’t feel sorry for yourself, you just keep rolling on like rollercoaster. What an awesome God we serve. You’re going places.
Sir, without obedience, your journey is far. Philippians 2:5-9. Receive the same order of obedience without reservation like Jesus. If all you do is read without applying yourself to your findings, you’re just having fun. Church Gist. If all you do is to come to Church and write notes but you won’t take note of the things you’re required to do, you’re only increasing your vocabulary – it adds nothing, it is self deception. So, there must be a takeaway from every service. “What is God saying to me now?” This my obedience is corrosive. “Lord, I need the spirit of obedience. Church Gist. I want a fresh release of the Spirit of love that will make obedience flow naturally”.
Sir, there’s no place that delightsome obedience cannot take you. Where no skill or connection can reach, take it, delightsome obedience will get you there. Deuteronomy 28:1. Church Gist. How many men of skill are above all nations of the earth? Where are they? Some are over their street, they think they’re in the world. (Obedience) is the master key to a world of supernatural breakthroughs of things that eyes have not seen or ears heard. I’m not aware that there’s any missionaries congress in Nigeria that gathers people from 78 nations across 5 major continents – by an act of obedience. Church Gist. Please package yourself, that Book called the Bible has all it takes in the Word to be set on top of your world if you know how to trade the secrecy. And they’re open secrets oh, it’s not cultist. “We don’t know what they’re doing, I’m telling you what we’re doing”. It’s an open secret, we shout it at the house top but if you won’t do it, it won’t work. If God promises you bumper harvest, it means, “go and clear the field”. Plough the field, harrow the field and put ridges and then sow, otherwise, that promise will never see the light of day. “I promise you bumper harvest in your farming business” “Amen”, then you go and sleep. Church Gist. Bumper famine, bumper hunger, bumper begging. We serve a covenant keeping God and the Scriptures cannot be broken.
Obedience may be costly but the end result is priceless, you’ve heard that too many times. 2 Corinthians 8:1-5. What happened to Abraham in carrying Isaac away early in the morning for a slaughter, it’s beyond his power, there’s no natural man that will do that. Church Gist. Power beyond his power was at work and he calls it, ‘faith’ and faith works by love and faith without obedience is fake. Show me your faith without obedience and I’ll show you my faith by my obedience. Church Gist. Power beyond your power and my power to obey is what the spirit of obedience offers. Ezekiel 36:27.
-Lift up your right hand, ‘Lord, endue me afresh with the spirit of obedience’.
Why do we need that spirit? There’s also a spirit walking around the world called the spirit of disobedience. It takes the spirit of obedience to counter and subdue it. Ephesians 2:2. Church Gist. It’s in the air, “no, you have your life to live. Don’t mind what they’re talking about”, then you start sweating. It’s looking for how to trap you and torment you. It won’t succeed. So, it’s not natural. Ephesians 2:2. There’s a force that works disobedience in God’s people. “I don’t care, no no”. Husbands, love your life, “no, no, this one, I can’t live”. Wife submit yourselves to your husband, “no, no, not this kind. No, I know my status”. Go and marry your status. Church Gist. You know, people just cause themselves heartache without knowing where their trouble is coming from. Husband and wife live together, you say, “no, no, that’s old testament”, then you have several assistant wives and your wife has assistant husbands. Family in disarray. Church Gist. Simple things. 1 Samuel 15:22. “I thank God my family is in Brazil”, una well-done. And where are you? “I’m in Togo”. You’re very close. If you want to hear what you like, don’t come here oh, don’t come here Sir, go somewhere else. When the teacher says you’re wrong, you’re wrong. All these, “God has not told me”, it’s not God who will tell you you’re wrong.
