-Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo at Morning Glow, KICC on ‘TAKING AUTHORITY OVER AFFLICTION OF NO HELPERS AND AFFLICTION AGAINST YOUR BUSINESS’
Praise the Lord!
This is the day the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Welcome to Morning Glow!
Welcome to a time in the Presence of the Lord. A time of prophetic prayer and it is my sincere believe that something will happen in your life this season and God will minister to you specially.
Heavenly Father we give glory, praise and adoration to your name. Thank you for the privilege of being in your presence. Minister to us this morning, bless you people, touch lives, save lives, give victory, Lord give victory. Let your people walk out of situations with testimony to the glory of your name in Jesus name.
Amen!
Wherever you are joining us, I welcome you in the name of the Lord Jesus.
I pray for you that the Word of the Lord will minister to you and God will really breakthrough for you in different aspects of life. No weapon formed against you will prosper and every mouth that rises against you in judgement shall be condemned.
We have been praying against affliction and I believe that affliction must not rise again the second time. God is going to give you victory, that is what He promised and He will keep His Word. Someone is going to overcome affliction.
When affliction comes, sometimes it is from quarters we don’t expect and it comes with such ferocity but God guarantees and promises to give you victory.
This morning we are going to be praying against affliction in your business or the work of your hand and affliction of ‘no helper’ and we’re going to believe God that somebody will receive a breakthrough this morning and will receive a turnaround to matters in their lives in the name of Jesus but you need to know that affliction has no respect for anyone. It can come against anybody according to your level and stay in your life and when it comes, it comes with power.
Affliction only bows to the name of Jesus. The Bible tells in Philippians 2:9-11 that God has highly exalted Him and given Him a name above every name including the name affliction; that at the name of Jesus, every knee should bow of things in heaven, things on earth and things under the earth and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of the Father, so affliction must bow in the name of the Lord.
God sometimes allows us to go through some affliction because the best is coming out of you (Isaiah 48:10). God allows some things not because He is a wicked God but He knows you will mature, you will be stronger, you will be better, infact if you don’t go through affliction you might not even know people around you, you might not know where they stand or who they are. Until you go through something you never know who is standing with you.
When we disobey the Word of God and refuse to adhere to His principles, afflictions also come (Psalm 119: 67) so you got to understand that affliction is a battle, a challenge. Affliction can rise a second time if we allow it but God said that if we trust Him, it will not rise. So, God can terminate any for form of affliction. Also, affliction can rise the second time but God will disallow it by His mighty power.
Know very well that affliction that rises again is on a killing mission. Many times, when affliction comes, it is with the intent to destroy. The thief comes not but to kill and to steal and to destroy. Jesus said I am come that they might have life and that they might have it abundantly. So, affliction can come because it really wants to destroy you but you have come to this platform this morning and God will give you victory.
The affliction that is up against your business, we are coming to deal with it this morning and the affliction that is against you, you not finding help, we are coming against it this morning. Tomorrow make sure you invite your friends, we are going to come against the affliction of sickness and disease. We are going to believe God for healings and miracles.
Righteous people too are afflicted. Psalm 34:19, so it is possible that a righteous person can be afflicted not because they’ve done anything but because the enemy comes against them, because of attacks of hell, because of mistreatment from others (Genesis 32:11). It can come because you forgot God, it can come because of hypocrisy, it can come because of rebellion and also because of wrong relationships.
God delivered Jehoshaphat when three kings came against him and Judah, God gave him absolute total victory but the same Jehoshaphat went and aligned with an ungodly king to start a business and the business was completely ruined. That was an affliction but that was a choice he made.
In this season of affliction before we have a turnaround, our attitude must be to magnify God not to thank God for problems but in the midst of it.
James 5:14
So, when you are afflicted pray, when you are in merriment sing Psalms, in other words don’t let the devil see that you are being affected by the affliction. Keep your eyes on God and keep your eyes on the Lord. Glory to God!
The Bible says if any among you afflicted, let him pray. That is what we want to do today. He didn’t say let him worry. Many people will go all over the place worried, announcing their challenge to everyone who has an ear to listen to them.
Is any afflicted? Let him pray, he didn’t say let him cry, some will cry until the cows come. Is any afflicted, let him pray and not be sad, not commit suicide. When a person commits suicide, they will have to face the Maker who gave the lives they took. If any is afflicted, let him pray.
If any is afflicted let him seek the Lord. Sometimes the people from whom you may want to seek help may end up complicating things for you. Paul said I am convinced that this momentary affliction cannot be compared to the glory that shall be revealed. So, in whatever state you are, whatever person that you are, the affliction that came against you, victory is assured this morning, testimony is assured this morning, glory is assured from this morning.
You must know that God thinks about you and wants to turn things around. From this morning, affliction must bow to Jesus, affliction must bow and must not rise a second time. God is about to work mightily in your life and you are going to find a helper. You will find a helper!
Luke 10:30- from this passage we see that some people become so self-important they do not rise to help you and help might come from the people you are avoiding. The journey of the man who was attacked by thieves, Bible scholars believed that he followed the route that was tougher, higher, difficult because He was trying to avoid the Samaritans. His prejudice made him to want to avoid the Samaritans so he took a longer route and that was where the thieves attacked him. The very man he was trying to avoid was the one who now helped him, ministered to him, and brought him hope and healing. He disinfected him, anointed him with oil, carried him, stopped his own journey, paid for him in the place where he took him too and said if the money he left is not enough, it will cost more, they should put it on his bill.
The man was avoiding this Samaritan and it was a Samaritan that gave him life. Somebody has been ordained to help you, to bless you, to lift you up, so the affliction of ‘no helper’ shall end this morning. In the name that is above all names the affliction of ‘no helper’ shall end this morning!
2 Corinthians 1:24
Psalm 71:12
When God sends helpers to you, they take up your matter, they run with it. Somebody on this platform this morning, for your life, for your business, for your future, for the destiny of your children, the mentor, the helper that will open doors for you, God will send them to you in Jesus name.
- Some of you have experienced helpers cutting off from you suddenly and you are wondering what did I do wrong? Today I pray for you, if the time of the helper is up, the Lord will send you another one. If the time is not up, God will connect you back again in Jesus name.
- There are some people they are not visible to their helpers, those who wants to help them are looking for them but something is shielding them off (Isaiah 25:7). There is a covering on their face that is not making their helpers to see them but this morning in the name of Jesus, we tear it off.
Every trampoline, every demonic veil, ever satanic covering, every covering intended to hide your glory, to hide your presence, we remove from today in the name of Jesus. - There are some people also, helpers disconnect from them so frequent. They can’t just keep help. People will come and help them and before you know, they’ve broken away from them again. For some reason, something about them repels help. This morning, help is rising for you in a mighty way, in a major way in the name of Jesus.
- There are some people the reason they’ve not been able to keep helpers is that some helpers come and they want to abuse you. Anyone who wants to take advantage of you, financially, emotionally, mentally, God will set them aside and send you a genuine helper in Jesus name.
- There are some people when you rise to help them, negative things begin to happen to you. You are having bad dreams, you are having attacks. Anyone on this altar who does not understand that the wrong kind of spirit is following them, repelling helpers, calling problems for helpers, we deliver you this morning by the Power of Christ. We lose you from every demonic entity that want to malign your name, malign your life, malign your future, we set you free totally in the name of Jesus. Help is rising from this morning!
- There are some people who experience helpers who promise and forget. The helpers who will rise and make your dream happen, God will send them to you.
