WHAT WE FIND IN THE WORD TODAY IS WHAT AWAITS US TOMORROW

WHEN I SAID-I CAN NEVER BE POOR! I SAW WEALTH IN GOD’S WORD.

IT DELIVERS IN PHASES BUT THE ASSURANCE IS HEAVY THAT IT IS SETTLED

I RETURNED FROM A TRIP AND MY WIFE SAID SHE HAD A MISCARRIAGE AND I SAID, “IT CANNOT HAPPEN. CAN I HAVE MY FOOD PLEASE?” IT ENDED THERE. IT WAS A WALKOVER.

YOUR FRUITFULNESS IS SETTLED BY THE WORD OF GOD.

THE WORD IS OUR STAFF OF OFFICE FOR DOMINION.

LET US COME TO TERMS WITH THE FACT THAT WE ARE IN A BATTLE AND THE BATTLE IS LARGELY AGAINST THE POWER OF DARKNESS AND IT TAKES LIGHT TO COMMAND BREAKTHROUGH IN THAT BATTLE.

THE ANSWER TO EVERY SITUATION OF LIFE IS IN THE WORD.

• Bishop David Oyedepo at Covenant Day of Fruitfulness || Faith Tabernacle, Canaanland || First Sunday Service.

Psalm 128:3
God never lies, He says what He means and means what He says. So fruitfulness settled. Many know what they want but they don’t know where it can be found. For every restless area of our life “Come and learn of me, you shall find rest for thy soul”. Not come and cry to me, come and learn of me and you will find rest. Learn until you find what to do, and then your result is guaranteed. Church Gist. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6) not for lack of prayer, not for lack of fasting. Many people have gone into captivity not because there is a demonic stronghold in their villages but because they have no knowledge. The answer to every situation of life is in the word. When you have found it, there shall be a reward and the expectation shall not be cut short.

When we come to Church, we are out on a mission of finding how to live a fruitful life. Not just fruitfulness of the body but a fruitful life. A life that is constantly flourishing, what does it take. There is no prophetic word that can put in your hand if you have not found what the word says to do.

• Today shall mark the end of dry seasons in everyone’s life.
• No more dry seasons in your health, No more dry seasons in your family harmony. No more dry seasons in your career.
• The end has come to every form of body barrenness.
• Everyone is returning with his or her own miracle. It shall bring you to your state of rest.

Father we are here today, Jesus we are here to receive at your feet Reveal yourself to every one of us and let no one return disappointed.

UNVEILING OUR BREAKTHROUGH HERITAGE IN THE WORD.

Isaiah 60:1-3. It is a picture of breakthroughs. Psalm 119:130. It is by the light of the word that we command supernatural breakthroughs in the journey of life. Light from the word. You have heard me say many times that I am surprised at where we are, thank God for the grace that brought us here. When you have found it, then there shall be proof. Proverbs 24:13-14. It is what we find that awaits us tomorrow. Church Gist. It is not that we don’t know what will happen tomorrow. What we find today is what awaits us tomorrow. You find it today, it is awaiting you tomorrow. Jeremiah 15:16. I found, I did eat and it stirs joy. Hebrews 12:2.

Breakthrough connotes that there are barriers to your going forward and there is a breaking through those barriers to get where you are going. We discover from the scriptures that we are in a battle against the powers of darkness. Ephesians 6:12. It is by light we triumph sweatlessly over darkness. It is not by sweat, it is not by struggle. When there is a power cut light goes off and darkness comes in. Church Gist. The power of darkness is in the absence of light. Wherever light dwells, darkness can never coexist. The advantage the enemy takes over us is the absence of light. The absence of adequate light. If you leave a torch light without charging it, after some time it can’t see anything again. It’s not just about light, adequate and bright light.

Luke 10:42. The word is our staff of office for dominion. Inside the word lies the light of life. That shines in darkness and darkness cannot challenge it. Let’s come to terms with the fact that we are in a battle and the battle is largely against the power of darkness and it takes light to command breakthroughs in that battle. In Luke 22:53, that’s the realm in which the devil works. He was out on the most fierce battle, the Bible calls it the hour of darkness. Church Gist. The ultimate of the Devil’s power is in the realm of darkness. When we dwell in the realm of light we will subdue him. You turn the light on in your room in the night, darkness fizzles out of its own accord. Light comes, darkness goes.

• May the word reserved for today, enter into each one’s heart and become the light of life there that darkness cannot withstand.

When light comes in, the word talks about the speed of light. It runs swiftly, it delivers swiftly. Light comes with speed. Jesus spoke a word to the centurion and his servant was made whole, at the self-same hour. As the word went forth, it got on the speed of light and got that chap healed back at home. Mathew 8:8-10, 13. Speed of light. When I found Matthew 6:33, I saw my destiny in it. I didn’t need anyone to explain it to me. I saw my future in it. I entered into it with utmost delight and without any ill-feeling. When the light of the word breaks forth, divine speed attends to it. I have never lacked what to eat or drink since September 12th 1976, I was 22 years old. Speed. I saw myself in wealth – on March 22nd 1982, I screamed “I can never be poor”. I am talking about how to know when light comes. Most times we mistake illumination for information. They are not the same. I wasn’t a pastor of a Church when I saw it. So I was not looking for people to give me an offering. I became an offering myself. Proverbs 24:24. There shall be proofs when you find it so work till you find it. It comes with speed, Yes! It delivers in phases but the assurance is heavy that it is settled. Proverbs 24:10. You don’t prepare for exams in the exam hall, how well prepared you are is what determines what the exam looks like. Church Gist. For many it is a walkover, they are over-prepared for it. I remember when I went for my driving test in those days, not like now when they just give license. There is this thing where they arrange drums and you drive through it. We were on the road going and the VIO said why are you driving with one hand? I said I am not carrying it. I am not carrying the car. It is a walkover when you have mastered something. When you are prepared in the word for your adventure on earth, it becomes a walkover.

I returned from a trip and my wife said she had a miscarriage and I said, it cannot happen. Can I have my food, please? It ended there. There was no “Okay, what did you feel that time” walkover!. My prayer is that God will turn your adventure in life into a walkover by sitting at the feet of Jesus and learning what will make work in whatever area of your life is not working.

Jesus, why is this church not growing? Three days of prayer, fasting and searching not eating eba here and rice there. On the third day, he stood me up from the prayer and he gave me four vital instructions that are growing our churches worldwide today, March 24th 1984. We don’t ask sincere questions. When we ask we are not ready for the answers. That man asked what he must do to make heaven. Jesus said one thing thou lackest, sell everything. Church Gist. Keep your eternal life, I don’t want. I won’t sell anything. These questions are not sincere. Not that you are going to surprise God, God knows what you are going to say before you left home. He knows your thoughts afar off. Last Sunday of June next year, He knows. He has checked His computer. Ask sincere questions, He always has an answer. May today mark the end of dry seasons in anyone’s life.

The scriptures say the word is the sword of the spirit. It means it is the sword of light and when light strikes, darkness parks out. Jesus threw the sword of light again the devil on the mountain of temptation. Ephesians 6:17. You engage the sword of light against the powers of darkness. John 1:1-5. Church Gist. When you say it is written, you are engaging the sword of light against the forces that be in the realm of darkness. When your faith in the word comes alive and you engage it is written against the opposition standing on your path, they clear the way. Ephesians 6:16.

• Today marks the end of all harassment of the devil against your fruitful destiny in Christ.

This implies that God’s word is the solution bank no matter the situation of life. The answer is in this book, no matter the question or the challenge. To assess our heritage in the word, we must connect with the ministry of teaching priests. There are those sent by God as beacons of light to enlighten us in the things pertaining to God. For a long season, Israel was without the true God, without a teaching priest and law. 2 Chronicles 15:4-6. You get into trouble when there are no teaching priests. You don’t know the right way to go, you do whatever seems good to you. There was no teaching priest, no laws, no true God. People went their way anyhow and they got into trouble. God has ordained teaching priests for the enlightenment of His people. Ephesians 4:11-12. They are ordained to bring us to the realm in which they operate if we are interested. I got hooked on by divine connection to Kenneth Hagin’s ministry, a major teaching priest and he brought me to his realm. Church Gist. There are sons and daughters in the ministry and outside this ministry who are operating in the realm of this short man by connecting with the things I teach. Hagin is gone to heaven and he is still teaching me. Teaching priests. Jeremiah 3:15. There are things you will never understand on your own. You can sit down with it for 20 years and it won’t open. Why do you go to school? To be taught what you can’t find on your own. You are online but they show you which books to read. Don’t read it, you will fail flat. You will fail so much that they will advertise it in the newspaper – The greatest failure in the history of this organization.

Teaching priests are assets. I hooked on to the ministry of Kenneth Copeland and he brought me to the realm in which he was operating. A great man of God, a great asset to the Body of Christ in command of financial fortune. No sweat, no strain all these years. There was a young priest they call Uzziah and he began to reign at 16, and he was operating in the revelation of Zechariah in understanding the visions of God. 2 Chronicles 26:5. Church Gist. There are folks in this Church who have never read one single thing being taught here. I read everything Hagin wrote except he is writing from heaven and I am not aware of it. Since 1976. When you get prepared for life, it becomes a walkover. I read 8 books on marriage before getting married. So don’t blame God for giving me a triumph, joyful, sweatless, harmonious family life. I took time to find out.

In case you don’t know the story of Covenant University, I studied selected nine world-class universities to find out how universities can run through centuries without losing colour. I did three-quarters of the induction lectures. The people I am teaching don’t do it so let me tell them how this thing will run. Myles Munroe, my blessed friend who has gone to heaven, only two of us did it. No professor was hired from America, Europe or Nigeria. You are not in my eyes, I know what I saw. You are not prepared for anything, it won’t work. Church Gist. All these going about and saying I know someday it will work, it won’t work. You can’t become an engineer someday, you have to go through the process. You find some books on my bookshelf today, #1:80k for the full book. Life is a school, you are not prepared for it, and you don’t make anything out of it.

• My prayer is that from now, you will value every platform of enlightenment in your life.

Today is our covenant day of fruitfulness. Please note that every challenge in a believer’s life is a trial of faith. Passing the faith test is the only way out. 1 Peter 1:6-7. Trials are writing a faith test to overcome the obstacles on the path of your life. Job 23:10. Job’s faith was intact in the midst of his ordeals. Did he come forth or not? Job 42:10-16.

• Every one of us on the line for miracle children today, you are passing the faith test.

No medical verdict under heaven can makes God’s covenant of no effect. Let your faith come alive. Children are not biological products, you better grab it. That’s how you are pregnant and you won’t know until the day you are going to deliver. “My waist is paining me”. Ah! Let’s check. Oh, you are about to deliver. Humorous God. Biology is below God, medicine is under God. He is the grand maker, He is the baby maker. Jeremiah 1:5. He is the former, it is not sperm, it is not ovary, it is not egg, it is not fallopian tube. Galatians 1:5. We are fearfully and wonderfully made not biologically made. There was no single ovary or egg in Sarah. The factory had closed down. Abraham had no sperm, the fountain has dried. Yet Isaac was born, a wonder to the world. To validate that, God directly formed Jesus. Church Gist. A virgin gave birth to a son. Malachi 3:6. Anyone who cares to believe that God is the maker of children, God is the former of babies, your own is delivered. This building had no budget yet didn’t suffer borrowing. God is up to anything He says. I will dedicate this thing, September 18th 1999 whether you are happy or not, He did it with no pain, no stress. He is up to anything He says. Deuteronomy 7:14. Galatians 3:29. No seed of Abraham is permitted to be barren.

• Everyone under the sound of my voice that is called barren, today God has turned your story around.

Deuteronomy 28:18. Jesus came to rescue us from the curse of the law being made a curse for us. So there was a curse that makes the body unfruitful but Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law. Every curse of man is inferior to the curse of God. If the curse of God is averted, how can the curse of man survive?

• Whatever generational curse that might be resisting your fruitfulness is broken today.
  Everyone here is permitted to be fruitful in their bodies.
• Therefore in nine months, we shall have the heaviest children dedicated in this place and your own is there.

Doctors speak to you, and you believe them. God speaks to you, you doubt them. You get to a doctor and he said your liver has two more weeks to pack up and immediately your countenance drops. Then he calls you back and says I am sorry, it is not your own. Their words just control you, why won’t you let God’s word control you. The battle is over. Gathering sympathy is no way out, weeping behind closed doors is not the answer. Emotional displays are not the answer. It is a test of faith that you must wake up to pass. Church Gist. All I have done this time is to show you what to hold on to, to take delivery. God said is superior to what any man saw or heard. There is a woman here that testified that she met one of the top gynaecologists and they said this is not a baby, it is fibroid. She said I am carrying a baby and kept on anointing her tummy, the baby was born with a mark of oil on the forehead. Fibroid turned to fine boy. Medical biology will tell you that when you are having your period, you are no longer pregnant. We have many here who were having genuine periods throughout and the baby was still born nine months after. It’s a faith question.

Someone came to our crusade in Bauchi and went back to Jos where they live and told the husband that she was already pregnant. She just heard the word on that crusade ground. Church Gist. “You are now pregnant”. Like a joke, she delivered after nine months. That is the way to getting to where you are going and in the name of Jesus, no devil will have his way in your life. God who made Sarah to laugh will make you laugh.

What entitles me to supernatural fruitfulness?

1. Be born again.
   Children are a heritage from the Lord. You don’t qualify for inheritance in a family you are not part of. Become a member of His family and then you have access to your inheritance of supernatural fruitfulness. So be born again and remain so. Not go here today, go there tomorrow. Today one Mallam, tomorrow one prophet by the beach.

Believe that you have been redeemed from the curse of barrenness. The word says you have been redeemed so believe it and keep serving God to realize it. Exodus 23:25. Prove that belief by doing what He says. Just serve him genuinely, don’t pull shoulders against God. Serve him meaningfully, serve Him delightsomely. You can’t be serving God and not believe that there is anything in it. It won’t happen. Church Gist. Everyone is only a partaker of what you hope for. Some people give tithe and offering to help God, will God ever need your help? Then He is not fit to be your God. The God that needs your help is not qualified to be your God. So don’t ever do anything and feel like you have helped God. It’s a sacrilege.

Serve God as your only source of help. Serve God with all integrity of heart, you are sweeping? Sleep so well. You are ushering? Usher very well. In WSF, prepare and pray, don’t just walk casually there to teach the Bible. Church Gist. I have never come here to preach without notes that have been brooded upon till this morning. Serving with integrity of heart. I didn’t bring anything to Jesus, He made everything out of me. Some strange order of giants will rise in this Church.

• May you never get to the point where you think God is depending on you.

I don’t know how busy you are but I don’t know any of you that is as busy as I am. I have not gone on leave for 41 years. You don’t do yanga for God, if he throws you out, you are out.

• May God never throw anyone out here.

Without humility, you can’t serve God acceptably.

• May your stewardship remain ever acceptable.

Joy is required to secure our harvest from the field. Like Hannah we must keep rejoicing, otherwise, the harvest on the field will perish. 1 Samuel 1:19.

• May your harvest never perish.
  Maintain a heart of joy, celebrate God always as a lifestyle and see God visiting you as a lifestyle. The good news today is God has come to change your story and the world around you will know God has changed your story.

Someone here had three failed IVFs and switched over to Jesus and gave birth to a set of quadruplets. Where science stops is where God starts. Church Gist. The place of science today is to validate in the natural the testimony of God. “We saw this tumour there but we can’t find it there anymore”. “You have no womb but you are now pregnant”.

• You will have your testimony.

I am not entertaining you, I am injecting you with the truth. Someone came to me and said she had a miscarriage, I said how do you know? She said we saw blood. I told her if she cuts her body with a blade what do you see? Blood, is that miscarriage? That was in 1985. So it is not a yesterday revelation. If you have nose bleeding, is that miscarriage? Are you pregnant with blood or a baby? Why are you confusing the two?

• Satan is alive.
  When your faith is alive like Abraham no devil can stop your children from coming. I am glad to announce to you that your children have arrived.

Write the name or names of the children you are set for.

• Every single miracle child coming out of this service shall be a blessing to the world.
• Whatever number of children you desire, are delivered today.
• Whatever sexes of children you desire are delivered today.
• The days of dry season are over in your life.
• Every aspect of your life begins to flourish today.
• You shall keep producing results in due season.
• You are out of the dungeon of barrenness.
