MY MOTHER COULD NEITHER READ NOR WRITE, SO SHE KEPT HER BIBLE UNDER HER PILLOW. SO THAT GOD COULD BE READING IT TO HER.
I HEARD THE TOUGHEST INSIGHT ON TITHING FROM MY GRANDMOTHER, BASED ON WHAT SHE HEARD FROM THE PASTOR.
YOU ARE LITERATE, YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE NOT TO READ YOUR BIBLE.
-Bishop David Oyedepo at 1st Service, Faith Tabernacle
First Pre-Shiloh Encounter Service
Without being acquainted with the manual of any engineering product, you can’t maximise its use. We are God’s product and that is His manual. You want to make the most of your life? Get acquainted with the manual, or you will just be looking at it.
I have been looking at the inside of a plane for many years, I can’t operate nothing, because I have no working knowledge of it. So you can hold the Bible and you’ll still be walking in darkness.
My mother could neither read nor write, so she puts the Bible under her pillow. So that God can be reading it to her.
But unto whom much is given, much is required. You are literate, so you can access it. Others hear it and just hold on to it.
I remember my grandmother when I asked her, “what is this money that you carry to Church every Sunday?” and what she heard from the Pastor was the only thing she knew: That is God’s portion that makes the remainder meaningful. It was the toughest insight I heard on tithing growing up. I wasn’t even saved then, but she heard it.
Now you can read, you can write, you can listen. Unto whom much is given, much is required – Luke 12:48
God’s Word is the way to every issue of life. Church Gist. You want a solution, locate His way and then you are there.
Let me tell you what relaxed my life in ministry, “He appointed 70 others also”
So I am not unemployed, I have an appointment letter. It is not visible, but it is real and the labourer who stays on his job is worthy of his pay.
So for 40 years, I never called on anybody: “can I have some cubes of sugar or some tea?”
“You are not sent by the people; you are sent to the people”: that is what He told me.
Light! They look so simple.
“Don’t raise money, raise men”: So I am a poor money raiser. My job is raising people.
Light! It will relax you beyond measure. Church Gist. It makes life easy for you.
“I have a running budget for every of my project on the earth. The silver is mine, the gold is mine, so it is not in anybody’s pocket, so don’t start looking after him. It is My pocket”: you know what that means? Relaxation.
Not: Stand up, give 10,000. You – 20,000; You – 100,000; You that is laughing, 10 Million, stand up.
That is how God’s Word relaxes people in their various areas.
