We thank You for all the people who have been working day and night, working behind the scene to make all this possible and as You have showered Your blessings upon every one, all those who have assisted in any way, I pray that Your mighty miracle, signs and wonders will be in their lives, in their families in Jesus’ name.

No bad news about anyone. Goodnews, glad tidings, joy, miracle upon miracle in Jesus’ name we prayed.
God bless you. You can sit down in the blessing of the Lord.
Tonight, I am talking to you on:
‘MANIFOLD SIGNS AND WONDERS THROUGH FAITHFUL SERVANTS.’
We are looking at 2 Corinthians 12:12. You’ll see that word there, ‘sign’, truly the signs of an apostle. Many people do not understand why we are talking about signs and wonders. On our streets, you will find some places where you need to get somethings like maybe, provision, some pharmaceutical drugs or whatever and there is a signboard that leads you to that place and the signs we are talking about, the signs are like that. The sign is like a signpost, a signboard that points to a place, points to a person and points to a possession.
Understand that when you see the signboard and you see the name of the place you want to go to and you see the arrow that points there, you do not stand by the signboard and then I say unto you, what are you doing here? Church Gist.
Your Response: ‘this is a sign, this is a signboard and I am standing here because I love the sign’.
Me: my son, my daughter, the sign is to lead you to a place, the sign is to lead you to a person, the sign is to lead you to a possession and so you’ll keep on moving and you’ll go in the direction where that sign is pointing to and when you get there, you get something that makes you wonder.
Now, when Moses got to the land of Egypt, he showed signs but he was not standing there by the sign, the sign was to lead them to salvation, redemption and their deliverance. They were in the wilderness and then there was a rock, they wanted water and Moses struck the rock and water came out; they were not standing by that rock saying, we have reached where we are going. That sign was to lead them to a place, the land of promise. So be very careful that you don’t say; we have signs, the sign is to lead you to salvation, the sign is to lead you to redemption, the sign is to lead you to deliverance, the sign is to lead you to the promised land.
Look at Joshua, he was by the Jericho wall and he told those children of Israel, the Lord is going to give you a sign, go around Jericho walls, one day, one time and then on the seventh day, seven times and shout and they shouted and God gave them a sign, the Jericho walls fell down. Church Gist.They were not standing there by the walls that fell because you know, that is just a sign that you are going to possess, the sign is to lead you to your possession.
Here comes Elijah and then he prayed to God in heaven and then fire came down from heaven, that was a great sign, it was a sign to refresh him, that the water and the rain was not going to come, he was not standing there where the fire fell. Church Gist. It is just the signboard and the signpost that leads you to the eventual rain, the deluge that came from Heaven.
Look at Elisha, Elisha got the mantle and then rolled the thing together and he said, where is the Lord God of Elijah and then he smote the River Jordan and Jordan parted in two. He was not staying there and said, look at the sign, I am standing by the signpost, no. That sign was to lead him to the ministry that Elijah had left behind.
Here comes Paul the Apostle and he said, the sign of an apostle were wrought among you, in all patience, he wasn’t standing there, I read it to you yesterday, that impotent man and perceiving that he had faith, he said, rise up on your feet and he rose up on his feet, he was not standing there at that point of the sign, he moved on to show them the way of salvation and the way of the power, the supernatural power of God.
Here comes Peter and he was in Jerusalem and he was going and walking in the street, they brought the sick people and a shadow fell on them and then, they rose up and they were well, it is just a sign. He was not staying there on the street, ‘I will not go home’. It was a sign that now, salvation is available, sanctification is available, the power of the Holy Ghost baptism is available. Church Gist. Look at the sign, the sign is pointing you to the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.
The Lord Jesus Christ Himself, He was approved of God by many signs and wonders among you, which you yourself also know. It is the sign that I am the Saviour and you are not standing just by that place where He made the blind to see. He said, I have shown you the sign, you’ve seen the sign now and He is pointing you to the Saviour.
If you have been here all these days and you have seen blind eyes opened and you have seen the lame rising up and walking and you have seen the demonstration of the power of God and then you are just saying, praise the Lord, I saw him. Praise the Lord, when that deaf and dump was healed, I was there, I saw it and you are just standing there, that sign is to lead you to salvation.
If you are a believer already and you have seen all these signs, it is to lead you from salvation to sanctification. If you are saved and sanctified and you are a leader in the Church and then you are happy, you say ‘praise the Lord, I am a leader in the Church, the Lord is visiting our Church’. The Lord is leading you not to stay by that signboard, He is leading you from that sign to service, that now you’ll say, ‘I am going to take this power of God and I am going to manifest it’ and the Lord will use you as the Lord is using me.
God used Joshua as He used Moses, He will use you. He used Elisha as he used Elijah, He will use you and then He used Peter as He used the Lord Jesus because the Lord Jesus said, ‘he that believeth on me, the works that I do, shall he do also and greater works than than this shall he do because I go into the Father.’
- God will lead you to a place of wonder. He will make you to be a person of wonder in Jesus’name.
Three things we are looking at today:
- Apostolic seal with signs and wonders. The Lord called the Apostles, they responded and the Lord sealed them, appointed them, accepted them and showed them to angels and men, to Heaven and earth that those are my ambassadors, my witnesses, my apostles. It was a seal on them and I pray, before you go tonight, the Lord will put a seal in your life. Church Gist. That seal will show that you belong to the Lord and satan will not tamper with your life.
- Appeasing sacrifice of the Saviour of the world. What makes everything possible? It is the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the world and that appeases God. Because of the sacrifice of Christ, no judgement upon those who believed, no condemnation and I pray; that sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ will be efficacious in your life in Jesus’name.
- Your salvation will be definite. The salvation of all the people in your family will be definite in Jesus’ name.
