SHILOH 2022: BRIGHT CLOUDS ALWAYS PRECEDE A DOWNPOUR.
FIVE PRE-SHILOH ENCOUNTER SERVICES BEGIN NEXT SUNDAY AND IN JESUS NAME ANOTHER MAN WILL NOT TAKE YOUR PORTION
SHILOH IS NOT AN ANNIVERSARY, IT IS NOT A CONVENTION. SHILOH IS A MOUNTAIN OF DIVINE ENCOUNTERS.
THERE IS ALWAYS A SPIRITUAL PREPARATION REQUIRED TO MAXIMIZE ANY DIVINE VISITATION.
NO DIVINE VISITATION WILL DELIVER BEYOND YOUR PREPARATION FOR IT.
WE NEED TO BE COMMITTED TO BRINGING MEMBERS OF OUR FAMILY INTO THE KINGDOM OTHERWISE THE CHALLENGES OF THEIR LIVES WILL CHOKE YOUR PEACE
I DON’T CARE WHAT EDUCATION YOU GIVE YOUR CHILD, IF YOU DON’T CONNECT YOUR CHILD TO JESUS, GOD HAVE MERCY.
CONNECT YOUR SON AND YOUR DAUGHTER TO JESUS, EDUCATION IS NONSENSE WITHOUT SALVATION
NOW PARENTS DON’T WANT TO CALL THEIR CHILD HE OR SHE. “WHEN THEY GROW, LET THEM DECIDE WHAT THEY WANT”. WHAT AN ABERRATION. WHAT A POLLUTION OF CREATION!.
A WOMAN WANTS TO BECOME A MAN, A MAN WANTS TO BECOME A WOMAN, IF MY FATHER MARRIED A MAN I WOULDN’T BE BORN. IF MY MOTHER MARRIED A WOMAN I WOULDN’T BE BORN. SHEER WICKEDNESS!
- Bishop David Oyedepo at Covenant Family Day Service|| Faith Tabernacle, Canaanland || First Sunday Service
Wisdom is a story changer. With the baptism of the Spirit of wisdom this month, everyone’s story is changing. Because He cannot deny Himself, when we discover what to do and we do it, we have committed his integrity to confirm it. Church Gist. Therefore in line with the prophetic word for the month, WISDOM FROM ABOVE ENTHRONES, I see an end to everyone’s form of slavery in the name of Jesus. Your servitude has come to an end. Anyone’s struggling for survival has come to an end.
Today is our Covenant Family Day, the same way David fled to Samuel and trouble could not reach him, from today evil shall not have access to your family anymore. All the children dedicated today, their destiny is preserved supernaturally, not one of them shall be snatched by the wicked. Church Gist. Not one of them will cause their parents any heartache. Any mark of the devil on any one of them by that oil on their forehead, it is wiped off forever and been brought here in the month of wisdom, I decree an excellent spirit over them. A woman came here last week and said I laid hands on her child and from that time he began to become first, first and first in class. Therefore the siege of failure is over in the lives of our children.
He sent a word to Jacob, it catapulted him into a nation. Today by the word of the Lord, everybody’s story is changing dramatically.
Prayers: Lord send my word, I am ready, I am set for my word.
Lord we look up to you, we are seated at your feet, waiting to hear from you, let no one return without an encounter with you. Let each one’s word locate them from above and let each one’s word turn them into a testimony in Jesus’ precious name.
Zechariah 10:1. Bright clouds always precede a downpour. That is what informs our Pre-Shiloh encounter services. There are always bright clouds preceding a downpour. So expect your package of bright clouds in these forthcoming Pre-Shiloh services. There are five of them and they are packaged for each one of them to have a taste of what awaits them. In the name of Jesus, your own portion another man will not take. Somebody said that in seven weeks you are going to encounter your God-ordained spouse and you wondered after waiting for many years. Seven weeks, okay, let me start counting. In seven weeks God showed up. There is no one who will lack their package of Pre Shiloh Encounter Services. So ensure to package yourself properly for it. No divine visitation will deliver beyond individual preparation. Exodus 19:10-11. There is always a spiritual preparation required to maximize any divine visitation. It is not an anniversary, it is not a convention. Shiloh is a mountain of divine encounters. Everyone that desires such encounters must be prepared for it by putting on our garments of salvation and our robes of righteousness. Church Gist. It goes a long way to enhance the outcome for everyone. What a great joy that in the month of November we are looking at the subject of sanctification secures destiny and eternity. There is no other spiritual virtue that provides those two great offers from heaven. 1 Timothy 4:8. Money is not that profitable, strength is not that profitable but godliness is profitable unto all things. Those things are essentials of life, they are provided for but the only one that secures eternity and beatifies destiny is sanctification.
So stay true and connect yourself, get any of those materials and study and know that you are only exposing yourself to danger when the fear of God no longer rules your life. No one shall be a victim in the name of Jesus.
UNVEILING THE REALITY OF WISDOM FROM ABOVE. We are concluding our series. It is not a make-believe stuff, it has its awesome manifestations. It enthroned Joseph from slavery to imprisonment, imprisonment to the palace. It is a story changer. That is how real divine wisdom can be. It enthroned Daniel a captive in his land of captivity. The King bowed down and worshipped Daniel. Church Gist. He was preferred above presidents because the spirit of God dwells in him. Daniel 6:3. Concerning Jesus, our Master and Saviour. Matthew 13:54. So we are talking about the wisdom that commands mighty works. Its expressions are not hidden. It is real, it is touchable. Today as the word is going on, you shall be endued afresh with the Spirit of wisdom.
We have tried to define divine wisdom severally in the course of these teachings so we will look at two of them this morning.
What is divine wisdom?
- Divine wisdom is a product of issue-focused meditation.
Proverbs 18:1. Issue-focused meditation. Through meditation, we encounter divine wisdom that engenders solutions to issues of concern. Quality meditation engenders open manifestations. 1 Timothy 4:15. The prodigal son sat up and came to himself. Luke 15:17-18. He came down to the realm of meditation and walked his way back to dignity. As powerful as sin poses to be, we can reason our way out of it. Isaiah 1:18. Meditation. Isaiah 1:19. Meditation engenders supernatural solutions to issues that appear so impossible. Church Gist. Issue-focused meditation as we found in the life of Solomon. Proverbs 6:6-11, 24:30-34. Just drawing lessons through focused meditation. Go and learn from the ants. Jesus said go and learn from the fig tree, you can tell the season we are in by watching the fig tree. 1 Corinthians 11:14. Focusing on the way nature operates you tap into the wisdom that engenders a solution to remove those mountains by the roots.
- Divine wisdom is inspired insights both from our study of the word and direct inspiration of the Holy Spirit on issues of interest to us.
2 Timothy 2:15. From the word we draw wisdom that shows us the right way to go, the right steps to take and the right turns to make so we can be free from an adventure in frustration. Church Gist. This is simple to understand because God’s word is a product of inspiration so it takes inspiration to access it. 2 Timothy 3:16. If the word is a product of inspiration, it will take inspiration to access the wisdom therein. Psalm 42:7. Only inspiration can tap into inspiration.
What is inspiration? It is the Holy Ghost quickening our spiritual understanding of scriptures as we reason with God on specific issues of interest to us. Isaiah 11:3. It is a spiritual quickening of our spiritual understanding of scriptures as we reason with God about specific issues of interest to us. Why is this sickness coming and going? Where am I mixing it? What am I to do? As you engage with materials on healing all at your disposal, light strikes and freedom is restored. Luke 24:45. It is not all that we hear and read that we understand. We heard of a people called “ever learning but never coming to the knowledge of the truth”. They have been studying but they can’t put their finger on what is being said. That is what inspiration does, it empowers us to draw insights from scriptures that provide practical solutions to issues of interest in our lives. Luke 11:49. The Bible is declared as the wisdom of God. This is the wisdom of God in print, it came down to us through inspiration and because deep calleth unto deep, it will also require inspiration for us to access the hidden treasures therein. 1 Corinthians 2:7-10. Church Gist. You can’t carry that wisdom from above and not manifest His glory so every issue of shame and reproach must come to an end in the life of everyone. No one shall bear an identity of shame and reproach anymore in this family. So it takes inspiration to draw from it and its end product is glory. Proverbs 3:35. By the impartation of this wisdom today, shame and reproach come to an end in everyone’s life. Inspiration is essentially the outcome of reasoning with God towards finding solutions to specific issues of concern. The word reasoning implies logical, analytical reasoning or thinking. Why is this thing not working? The Holy Ghost steps in and begins to bring solutions to make things work. It is defined as rational and analytical thinking through the word.
They brought a woman caught in adultery to Jesus. Moses said we should stone such a person to death, what do you say? They were looking for an occasion against Him. He began writing on the floor. John 8:3-11. Church Gist. He walked out of their trap. By the wisdom of God, you are walking out of every trap set by the devil for you. Then they came to ask Him if they should pay tribute to Caesar or not. Mark 12:14-17. They hissed and walked away. They were thinking he would say something else. They were busy looking for him. Every devil looking for you, you walk out of their traps with divine wisdom.
We look at two ways of accessing divine wisdom here:
- Commitment to continuous feeding and acting on the word.
You can’t run dry of the wisdom of this word as you keep feeding on the Word and putting to work your findings. The world will keep on being amazed at you. This is God’s wisdom bank. We draw from it by revelation and faith. He tells you what to do and you believe in it, you step out to do it and he begins to manifest himself in your life. While others are struggling in the air to fly, you are just simply soaring. Psalm 19:7-10. That is what this book offers. Commitment to the dictates of scriptures creates a gorgeous future, an enviable future, an out-of-this-world order of future and that is what you are walking into. 2 Timothy 3:15. It makes wise, the content of this book makes wise. Following the dictates of this book makes wise. The wiser a man is, the higher his throne on the earth because “by me kings reign and princes decree justice” – Proverbs 8:15. Church Gist. So the wiser a believer the higher his throne on the earth. Proverbs 9:9. There is no finish line in the school of wisdom. Romans 11:33. The wiser we are, the more pleasant life becomes. The more refreshing life becomes because all the paths of wisdom are ways of pleasantness and her paths are peace. So I see every form of tension disappear from your life, your family, and your business in the name of Jesus.
Matthew 7:24-25. So it is not just hearing it, not just understanding it but going ahead to do it. It makes you an all-weather winner. All-weather, come rain, come shine, come anything, all weather. You can see that in your church, an all-weather breakthrough church. Whether Coro 19 or Coro 21 it doesn’t matter. All weather. That is how your life will be from now. Church Gist. No earthly circumstance will be enough reason for a setback in your life anymore. Following this is what makes it work. 2 Timothy 3:16. If you buy into those corrections, buy into those instructions, buy into those rebukes, it gets you thoroughly decorated, prepared unto every good work.
- Through the ministry of the Holy Ghost that gives us access to the deep things of God which makes us high flyers in the race of life.
All the men that had access to the deep things of God emerged as stars in scriptures. So when we engage the ministry of the Holy Ghost, He grants us access to the deep things of God. That means the secrets of God which makes stars on the earth. That is why I know an army of giants will emerge in this place. The kind the world has never known before. Church Gist. As you engage the ministry of the Holy Ghost to reveal the deep things of God, it makes all the difference. John 16:12-14. Deuteronomy 28:1. He will set you above all the nations of the earth, where you live notwithstanding. That is what God is about to do in all of our lives.
God said plant me 5000 churches in a year and He did. Deep things. You can’t hear it, you won’t see it. Okay, we are not doing anything this year, we are going to be working at establishing these churches. No! I am planting 10,000 churches this year and He did. The voice of the spirit. Please check through the teachings at the just concluded Ministers Summit. I spoke extensively on how to hear the voice of God. It is the right of every child of God, your child doesn’t go to church to know how to speak your language. He comes down with it. It is time we stop guesswork in our journey.
Lift your right hand and bless the name of the Lord.
Prayers: Jesus endue me afresh with the Spirit of wisdom.
The Lord said to me “I won’t let you go like others have gone” when I was getting set for full-time ministry. He said I would have you laid hands upon and you shall be filled with the Spirit of wisdom. He saw me craving it and He came down to show me what will make it work. Church Gist. Before the Most High God, 41 years have come and gone, zero tension. There is no idle statement in this book, every statement of scripture is equally inspired. Therefore from today, by the operation of this virtue in your life, every tension is over. Every deadly pressure is over in your life. It shall be the dawning of a new day for you.
Now, today is our Covenant Family Day. We serve a family-loving God. The first family He created, He released blessings on them. He delights in releasing blessings on families and when God blesses who can curse? Every ravaging curse on any family, by the blessings of today, are all averted. Church Gist. Every curse of hereditary disease along the lineage of any family is declared over today. Numbers 23:20. The blessings being proclaimed on your family today shall remain irreversible.
Interestingly, God wants us saved and our entire household as we saw in the case of Cornelius and the Jailer. Cornelius gathered together all members of his family and his new kinsmen, his relations and Peter came in by the Spirit of the Lord and as he ministered, they all turned their lives to Christ and were filled by the Holy Ghost at the same time. Church Gist. He takes delight in seeing members of our family saved. Acts 10:24,44, Acts 16:30-31. God takes delight in our household. So every unsaved soul in anyone’s family, I decree this day as their day of salvation.
We live in a wild world, Hebrews 2:3. How shall we escape from the horrors of this natural life that is over-suffocated with evil if we neglect so great a salvation? So it is not just an escape to heaven, it is an escape from the horrors of life. We need to be committed to bringing members of our family into the kingdom otherwise the challenges of their lives will choke your peace. You can’t be truly saved and not desire their salvation. One hospital bill of a relation can wipe out all of your savings. Church Gist. One rich man in the midst of six poor people, then you have seven poor people, they will eat him up. Desire the salvation of your family members. God is a family-loving God. None of your children will go wayward. One challenged son can make a frustrated father. None of your children will be trapped by drugs. No one here will have a son or a daughter in prison forever. If anyone has been caught, I decree God’s mercy to prevail.
Upcoming parents, young people who just got married, take early responsibility, train up a child not give a child money. Proverbs 22:6. Train up, don’t assume. Anyone being caused any form of heartache by any of their children, today is declared your day of deliverance. One of the graduates of Covenant University was with me. We had Eagles Summit some time back and then this Ministers Summit so he came. The year he was to step into the university, the father died and so the mother said “now there is no father, the only one I know that can help this child find his bearing in life is the Bishop, so you go to Covenant”. Where will you get the money? She said I will look for it. Very fine young man today, breaking forth in all areas. I don’t care what education you give your child, if you don’t connect your child to Jesus, God have mercy. Church Gist. Connect your son and your daughter to Jesus, education is nonsense without salvation. Why put your child in a primary school outside the country? Will the teachers give the child the training, the parents are supposed to give? I vowed never to let any of our children go to a school that is not Holy Ghost-driven, not just church. You were in the University of Tennessee, I said do they speak in tongues there? No! You move out. If you don’t take it seriously you lose out. I got saved at 15, it is speaking right now. There is no amendment there, I have people around me who are paying heavy costs for not taking responsibility. Even while they are in secondary school, you can’t correct them you now say they should go somewhere. What a life. You say come do this thing and they say “I am thinking about it”. You are thinking about it and you will eat in this house? Genesis 18:19. I know Abraham that he will command all his children, he won’t pet them. I decree every family here blessed with irreversible blessings.
There were two families traced in one broadcast I watched recently, Jonathan Edwards and one other atheist. For 100-200 years they traced the lineage of Jonathan Edwards a man that feared God, judges, presidents of universities, deans of colleges, top public administrators. They traced the other atheist – prostitutes, drug addicts, robbers. All kinds of evils just trailed that lineage for 200 years. Psalm 112:1. Church Gist. That is your generation. They won’t pursue anybody in your lineage to be saved. Your walk with God will impact their lives. Numbers 23:8. Any curse on anyone’s family returns back to sender. Every marital spell on any lineage returns back to sender. Business failure, career failure, every kind of failure returns back to sender.
When you are saved, you become a blessed of the Lord. Acts 3:26. When you turn to Jesus, you become a blessed one. Numbers 23:8. Anyone that raised a curse against you, your children, your career, your health, the curses return back to them today. Therefore I decree the release of every besieged family. Your children shall no longer record failures in school. They shall not be trapped by drugs, the world is so polluted. Now parents don’t want to call a child he or she. “When they grow, let them decide what they want”. What an aberration. What a pollution of creation. None of our children here will be trapped by it. A day will not come when your son will bring another man and say it is his wife. It is an insult on creation. I saw a man that was regretting that madness. He said they could change the hormones in your body, but they can’t change your nature. A woman wants to become a man, a man wants to become a man, if my father married a man I wouldn’t be born. If my mother married a woman I wouldn’t be born. Sheer wickedness! It is all around the world today, they are propagating. Then you have an unstable son and you say he should go far away from you. The natural thing is that when parents speak to their children they hear. That’s our culture. No one will do the job of a parent for him. The teacher will teach, you understand it, if you fail, they send you out. In the name of Jesus, no one shall be misguided in the journey of life. All your children will give you rest. No one here will nurse an adult child. Therefore the blessings of Abraham are released on every family down here. Only giants will rise in your lineage not through games and gimmicks but in righteousness and verity. Your sons and daughters shall be colourfully married, they shall raise good children. They shall not be misguided by the ongoings in the world.
You have been redeemed from the curses so they have no more hold on your life. I release you as the Joseph in your family, I release you as an agent of rescue to your family in the name of Jesus. Serving God procures a blessing. Exodus 23:25. When God blesses, no man can curse. The grace to be steadfast in your stewardship in the house of God and between you and God, receive it now in the name of Jesus. I decree today that every misfortune hovering over any family be converted to favour. Job 36:11. As you commit to serving God in fulfilling the interests of His kingdom, I decree that lack and want will no longer be your identity. Everyone whose heart is open to receive this blessing today, you will testify. The concerns in your family and extended family are declared finally over. Working and working without being able to point to what you are working for is over today. There are families that are just filled with mediocres, nothing is outstanding about anyone. Your Father is the Most High God. Jesus is the son of the highest so why must I end up a mediocre? Every siege that won’t let the head of people rise in your lineage, that siege is broken today. Church Gist. Every curse behind marital delays, marital settlement is declared over today. The curse of ups and downs, success today and then failure tomorrow, failure and then another success, the curse of ups and downs in your life and in that of members of your family are declared over today. Everyone called barren, whatever the sources may have been, that issue is turned to fruitfulness. By the next Covenant Family Day, you are either here with your children depending on when we have it or you are heavily pregnant. Every siege of marital delay is over. Between now and the end of Shiloh, your spouse has appeared. Every plague of joblessness, there are those looking for gainful employment, there are those consultants, nobody is consulting anything with them and contractors that are not contracting anything, suppliers without anywhere to supply anything to. Whatever sparks doing nothing when you have something to do, that siege is over today.
The Lord said to me “behold I have touched your tongue with the coal of fire, and from henceforth as you say it, you see it”. Between now and Shiloh everyone called unemployed is gainfully employed. Church Gist. Everyone that appears a burden to his relations, to his friends is converted to a blessing today. So shall it be. Thank you Lord and blessed be your name. I, therefore, decree you and your family blessed. You and your children, blessed, you and the work of your hands blessed.
The good news is, your story has changed. The story of your family has changed. The story of your children has changed. The story of your business and career has changed. Church Gist. The curse of failure that has plagued your family is finally averted. So shall it be. Therefore from henceforth, you never suffer any torment of the wicked again.
Final Blessings
- Be blessed, remain blessed, stay blessed.
- Everyone has a testimony this week. Testimonies of dramatic change of stories.
- From all your relations only good news from now. From your children and grandchildren, only good news from now.
