NOBODY CAN ASK ME TO JOIN A CULT. I BELONG TO A SUPERIOR CULT!
YOU ARE TOO MUCH TO BE AN ORDINARY CITIZEN OF THE EARTH. IT IS A WASTE OF RESOURCES
PEOPLE PRINT OUR BOOKS IN DIFFERENT LANGUAGES ALL OVER THE WORLD AT NO COST FROM US YET THEY PAY US ROYALTIES
OUR BOOKS SELL IN MULTI MILLIONS EVERY YEAR YET I HAVE NEVER EARNED A DIME FROM IT
THEY SAY I AM THE RICHEST PASTOR AND THEY ARE NOT LYING
WE DON’T MAKE ANNOUNCEMENT TO GIVE AND MAKE PEOPLE JITTERY
LABOUR TO LOVE GOD. RICHES WILL FOLLOW YOU
BEHIND THE WORKINGS IN THIS MINISTRY AND IN MY LITTLE LIFE IS THE SPIRIT OF LOVE EFFECTUALLY AT WORK
LISTEN, YOUR LOVE FOR THINGS HAS ROBBED YOU OF TOO MANY THINGS. FOR ALL THINGS WILL KEEP ANSWERING TO YOU WHEN YOUR LOVE FOR GOD IS GENUINE
GOD LOVES EVERYBODY BUT HE LIKES SOME PEOPLE. AND WHEN GOD LIKES YOU, HE JUST DECORATES YOU AND THE ENEMY CAN’T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT
- Bishop David Oyedepo at International Youth Alive Convention 2022 tagged “Destined for Dominion”|| Day 4 Evening Session || Faith Tabernacle Canaanland.
Behind the workings in this ministry and in my little life is the spirit of love effectually at work. No guess work. Church Gist. Nothing on this Earth holds any more value to me than Him. He has not had to endure any competition with Him in my heart since 1976, since I was 22.
1 Corinthians 2:9. Every true lover ends up a path finder, a pacesetter and a trail blazer. Listen, your love for things has robbed you of too many things. For all things will keep answering to you when your love for God is genuine. Romans 8:28. Church Gist. You better open up. What’s your ambition? None. Yet, everything is working. What do you want to be? Nothing. I just want to please Him. What do you want to have? Nothing. Where will I take it to? It’s to Him. You better review your stand.
Without a heart for God, you can’t make a mark. You can survive but making a mark, impacting on lives, commanding dominion? You will be limited; utterly limited.
Now, hear what He said in Romans 13:8,10. Deuteronomy 28:1. Love is God’s hidden secret for fulfilling the law. And when the law is fulfilled, you are on your way to the topmost top in life. I will set you on high above all nations of the Earth having fulfilled the law. Church Gist. And the law is fulfilled by love. The stronger your love for God, the higher heights you scale. Love is the fulfilling of the law that empowers men to be set on high above all nations of the Earth.
I said to them sometime in Church many times, you may read all the book I have written there, about a 100 of them, but never claim to have discovered my secret until you discover my heart beat for God. That’s where my secret secret lies. Church Gist. I so love God that God so likes me. David so loved God that God came on and liked him. You know, He loves everybody but He likes some people. 1 Chronicles 28:4. And when God likes you, He just decorates you and the enemy can’t do anything about it.
Wake up and stop chasing after the shadows! As this word is going forth, the spirit of love is being imparted on people whose hearts are open.
Now, hear this dominion secret of love: he that dwells in love, dwells in God and God in Him. 1 John 4:16. He is wrapped up, enveloped, cocooned with God. Church Gist. He becomes a divine personality on the Earth. He becomes an immoveable mountain; a terror to the devil.
When I was 50 I counted how many times death has attempted my life. It was 25. I stopped counting because there’s no point counting as defeated foe. Just get wrapped up with God. That is what defines our dominion. Not godliness now, God-likeness. Church Gist. You know something, issues will come up but will just come down to natural because you missed the time. Ecclesiastes 12:1. Give God His place now. I have never received an award or an accolade that I knew about. They always tell me; there’s no time to know it.
One of my sons came home one time from foreign field and he said, “hey Sir, this is a dream come true.” He was talking about our house in Gawani Estate. I said I didn’t dream; I never dreamt of a house in my life. Church Gist. That I slept and I am dreaming of a house; for what? He said, your blood pressure is high; I said, not me. I went and slept and I was dreaming about the next crusade. That’s the dream I dream: next crusade. That’s where my heart is.
Before you join a cult let Christ have His hold on your life. Give Him His place. Can anybody now ask me to join a cult? Even when I was growing up they can’t do it. A cult? Which cult? We belong to a superior cult; far above all principalities and powers. Church Gist. If you are not in love, dominion will be theoretical. It is your love for God that is a seal of your dominion on the Earth. You are not in love, you are not a candidate; forget it.
My wife came under some attack of death, and I was in 27 nations the same year – blasting the head of the devil as I went. Nobody had any opportunity to come and say, sorry to me. All these things you are carrying about is not life. Church Gist. You are too much to be an ordinary citizen of the Earth; it is a waste of resources for you to say, what to eat, what to drink, my life is over. Which over?
We have our books now being published by different languages around the world at no charge to us and yet they send us royalties. Have I ever taken a dime from books in my life? Never! To be blessed is the purpose. Church Gist. And yet it sells in millions and multimillions every year. All these corner corner life is not the way to live. And yet they say the richest pastor in the world is this short man and they are not lying because somebody never borrowed, never begged, and never lacked. Then what does it mean to be rich? Never one day announcement that gets people jittery? And always giving and giving? Then who is a wealthy man? You better wake up!
I know here today by this impartation it is already ongoing. Open your heart don’t just hear the story. “Lord, endue me with the same spirit of love that is at work in my father.” Impartation is for the thirsty. You are not thirsty, you are not qualified. Isaiah 55:1. You just sit down and say, “I wish he knows what I am going through.” Church Gist. What are you going through? You are going through ignorance. Somebody asked me, “do you ever have problems?” I said may be it came, I didn’t know. Over riding love! Songs of Solomon 8:6-7. That’s the love we are talking about. The love that is not subjective to circumstances. Songs of Solomon 8:6-7. Unreserved, unfeigned, unpretentious, that nothing seems to affect it. It is out in season and out of season; doesn’t budge.
Why won’t I see those circumstances? Because of His love burning hot in my heart. Stop labouring to be rich; labour to love God. Riches will follow you. Romans 8:28; Proverbs 23:4-5. It’s foolhardy to keep chasing something flying while you are running on foot; no! But show me your love by seeking first the interest of my kingdom and watch as I add to you all these things that others are dying to get. Church Gist. Make it your priority; and the time to do it is now. Before the evil days come, challenges come too, you say, ‘I have no more interest; I wish I knew this earlier.’
I had a romance with God one day on the field, 1987, and He said, my son I am pleased with you. Oh my God! Pleased with me? I developed goose pimples all over my body. But what have you brought for me? What a sound of love from the Father! “Hey, my God, what do I have? Oh my salary. Jesus I give it to you.” ’87 December I earned my last pay in this ministry. Nobody heard it from my mouth until ’96 in a minister’s conference. Church Gist. Add for the Church for the first time in 2007. I wasn’t an object of pity; I already had my own financial system running without taking a penny from your Church money. My God, this love is not theoretical. I am still on the field: Jesus loves you. In the market place, Jesus loves you. Motor garage, Jesus loves you. Under the bridge, Jesus loves you, He sent me to you my friend. You better wake up!
