RUNNING WITH THE PRIZE IN VIEW
Every believer has a God given capacity to be bear fruits. “I am the vine, ye are the branches”. “You have not chosen me, I have chosen you that you should go and bring forth fruits, that your fruits should abide”. Every branch is ordained a fruit bearing branch.
John 15:1, John 15:16
We saw in the Parable of the Talents in
Matthew 25:15
He gave to everyone according to their several ability. Everyone has God’s inbuilt capacity to bear fruits.
Why some will take that responsibility, others will despise it. Each one makes his choice. But everyone has the God given capacity to bear fruits.
We also saw that every believer is ordained an ambassador for Christ by reconciling the lost back to God.
2nd Corinthians 5:17
We have an assignment of reconciliation, He has given us the Word of reconciliation. Now we are ambassadors for Christ.
We have the ministry of reconciling the world back to God. We have the tool in our hands. Everybody, as soon as you are saved you have the ministry of reconciliation on your life. The Samaritan woman at the well heard Jesus, went to town “See a man who told me all things that ever I did, it’s not this the Christ?
We all have received the ministry of reconciliation at new birth. Come and see. You don’t need experience for that. You don’t need maturity for that. Come and see.
We heard the testimony of a woman here that went about sharing fliers, she does not speak one word of English, went about in her environment, 50 years old who has never had a child. She was mocked, assaulted, confronted by very bitter women. “You barren woman, if you had a child will you be sharing fliers about? The same year she heard that, that same year she became pregnant and gave birth to a bouncing baby boy. First time.
Everybody has capacity to bring people to Christ. We have it at various levels but there is no one that does not have. She never preached a Word. She just was putting in the sickle and God said yes, you’re fulfilling your ministry of reconciliation, I am committed.
Somebody took a tract in Lekki and squeezed it and threw it away, somebody else picked it, straightened it and read it, “I have to be there” and he came in here and Jesus turned his life around like a dream of the night. Somebody squeezed it, another one picked it and God spoke to that man through the content of this tract.
Every believer has a ministry and it’s called the ministry of reconciliation.
Someone here got a tract and the testimony there was just speaking to his situation so he came on Saturday to wait. He doesn’t want to miss the service on Sunday and he didn’t know the place so instead of going about looking for the place, “Let me come, locate the place on Saturday and sleep here”. He came and met Jesus.
Every believer, no excuse. Every believer has a clear cut ministry of reconciliation with a Word of reconciliation. The Word is printed here incase you can’t speak to anybody. You are a sower.
Someone here contemplated suicide and had put the drug he will drug himself with in his back pocket but somebody had handed him a tract, Jesus delivered from indebtedness. So while he wanted to pull out the drug, the flier came out with it. He was going to die from indebtedness but he saw there is a way out. He came out with death on his face, Jesus rescued him like the thief on the right hand side.
At the point of death he was rescued.
Everybody has a ministry of reconciliation and you have that open ended opportunity in this Church to make it happen.
We have the testimony of someone who took a thousand fliers every week and trekking around and Jesus turned his story. His business failed in Benin, he packed to Lagos to be with his mother, what a failure was that. But Jesus turned his life around like a dream of the night. He began to pay tithes in six digits per week.
Somebody’s story is turning. He said “Put ye in the sickle because the harvest is ripe”. Somebody else took 1200 tracts, trekking being insulted, Jesus just took him up and lifted his, changed his story forever.
- Many peoples story will be changed this season.
- Operation who is on the Lord’s side will decorate your destiny.
- Will recover every dying destiny in the name of Jesus Christ.
There was this armed robber that came one Sunday morning sweating. What was it? They went for an operation, all his colleagues were killed so at the end of it he looked at his back pocket and saw a tract, he said “This is what exempted me”. Ran down here with his charms, “I want to surrender to Jesus”. God saved him and he is somewhere in Church today. Praise God.
The head of their gang, the most charmed person was killed. Everybody went but only him escaped and God must have told him “See what is in your pocket, that is what protected you. Run now for your life”. Everybody has an open ended platform to get on the go for Jesus. Praise God.
One Wednesday we saw a Muslim man here in this Church. He said that thing was just telling him “That paper you collected go and check it and go there now”. So he arrived here on Wednesday, there was service going on, he gave his life to Christ and got into the faith. The fire of God in the flier, the prayer prayed on it, brought conviction and brought him to the Lord. So don’t joke with this, don’t play with it.
We are coming with millions of tracts to give everybody an opportunity to express which side he is. *Hello Jesus loves you” and we have it in currency size. Come to Winners for your marital breakthrough, come to Winners for your desired financial breakthrough, come to Winners for restoration of peace to your home, come to Winners for your your desired miracle jobs, come to Winners for your rescue from indebtedness, come to Winners for your long awaited breakthrough, come to Winners for your desired change of story, come to Winners for your miracle babies, come to Winners for your healing, come to Winners for an end to your secret tears, come to Winners for your deliverance from addictions and then come to Winners for settlement. Praise God
That is fulfilling your ministry of reconciliation. There are people moving around in your areas. Just meet them “Jesus loves you”, unshamed, delightedly. You find God just recording. Those who shared 1000 fliers God has their names. You will be surprised how many names are attached to your name when you get to Heaven for obeying God and proving that you are on His side.
To let you know how God backs up what you’re doing, there is this young man who despised this Church according to his testimony, hated this Church with passion. They gave him a tract, he tore it and for two weeks he could not sleep, no help no medication for him. Then he suddenly remembered, I tore a tract. He came down here he said “see every place I’ve gone to, I couldn’t find help, then I remember I tore the tract of this Church and from that time I was plagued, please even if I would die let my soul be saved”. Amen.
Confession of divine judgement for tearing Winners tract read by Pastor Beecroft “I developed hatred, wickedness towards this Church right from the time I came from Port Harcourt to Lagos. Something happened two Sundays ago, a group of people were sharing testimony tracts and gave one to me. Why I hated this Church is because all the tracts I do receive is only testimonies. They don’t actually point to salvation to my own wicked understanding, so being so grieved I tore the tract that last Sunday, since that day my life has been in a great mess. On Monday I fell sick with fever, cold typhoid, they even said I had herpetitis. I went to the hospital, since that day till today I have not slept. I couldn’t get myself up till this time. Look at me, the only thing remaining for me is death. I can’t sleep because I went contrary to what Jesus said. He said “I will build my Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it”. I have sought solution to all possible places yet no solution until at last I remember I tore a tract belonging to Winners Chapel so I said let me come even if God will not save my life, let my soul be saved. If God will deliver me I will never stand against any Church in my life”. by Daniel Ifaenyi Okorie.
He will never tear any tract belonging to any Church again. Isn’t that deliverance? Well he was helped. Jesus had mercy on him. Now that was a believer, not an unbeliever. It’s a hard thing for you to kick against the priest. There shall be mighty deliverances among us on this operation who is on the Lord’s side.
Someone was captured by ritual killers and had this flier on his back pocket, the flier flew from his back pocket to the front of the shrine, the shrine shook. They drove all of them. They were rescued by the power of God on the tract. So it’s a rescue agent. It’s a sickle of harvest.
Somebody’s story is changing.
You remember that my daughter’s testimony from Port Harcourt, in the midst of ritual killers, threw her bag when they carried her little child from her, the flier came out from the bag and I began to speak in tongues. That’s why they call Papa a juju man. It is the Holy Ghost juju. You can’t beat it anyday.
- Now listen to me, anyone you give this tract to whether they respond or not no one will escape.
- They will fall for Christ.
- They will testify that they did in the name of Jesus Christ.
Thank You Jesus. Glory to God. Lift your two hands to Heaven and ask God to empower and engrace you to fulfill your ministry of reconciliation in grand styles in this operation who is on the Lord’s side. In Jesus precious name we have prayed.
Stretch forth your hands and let release this tracts. It’s now in the main center, we need to go round everywhere today. We have it already here in Canaanland so all of us who are here you want to be a part of who is on the Lord’s side army. Praise God.
So carry, go to the market and give them, go to the streets and give them, go to the buses and give them. Let everybody have it. They may not be going through that thing, somebody might be challenged with his job, with child bearing. You are just out as a sower scattering the seed. Jesus is Lord.
Now pray Holy Ghost breathe upon these tracts, breathe upon these fliers. Let Your fire be burning upon each copy of this fliers in the name of Jesus Christ. It’s done.
- The breath of the Holy Ghost breathe upon these publications.
- It will lead to convictions, massive conversions and massive ingathering of souls into the Kingdom.
- They shall all abide in the faith and abide in this Church for life in the name of Jesus Christ.
So shall it be - Now I pray that everyone engaging in this operation be openly rewarded.
- I pray that everyone engaging be speedily rewarded.
- I pray that no one serving shall be in vain in the name of Jesus.
- The day is declared open as your day.
- Your day of breaking forth.
- Your day of acceptable stewardship in Jesus name.
Lift up those two hands and give God thanks.
Lift your hands, lift your voice and give glory unto God. Appreciate Him from the depth of your heart, give Him thanks, give Him praise, celebrate Him, glorify Him, honour Him, He is worthy of all the praise, He is worthy of all the glory, He is worthy of all the honour and the adoration. Blessed be the name of the Most High God. Father we have come to say Thank You, we have come to glorify and honour You, we have come to give You praise. Blessed be Your holy name in Jesus precious name we have given thanks.
