Again, for seeing another brand-new month, give God thanks who has kept you and I all through the past 2 months of this year. Celebrate and magnify Him, there is no one like Jesus, give Him glory. For we only kept by the power of God, not by ourselves. We can’t keep ourselves. Give Him thanks and praise. Glory to the Lamb of God, thank You Jesus.
…Open up this great month for me by Your Word today. Thank You Father and blessed be Your name, in Jesus precious name.
Will you help me thank Him for those awesome testimonies of people’s engagement and partnership with Christ in this season!
These are all 2020/2021 testimonies, so they are not 20 years ago: God is in the midst of His people. Give God thanks!
Blood Cancer flushed out (documented testimony): Awesome God. She came to Church only December last year!
“I must build a House of God first before my house” and then something turned (documented testimony): Heavens came down!
Give Him thanks for those testimonies, we serve a Covenant Keeping God. Give Him glory and give Him thanks. In Jesus precious name we have given thanks.
Again, life is an Adventure in Opportunities: the things we hear, they are knocks on the doors of our hearts if we are interested in the same. God hasn’t changed. There are no private testimonies in the Kingdom, what He does for one is available for others if they are interested and will care to take the same steps.
God First will always put you first. Otherwise who are you for one Chairman to contact you from Dubai and treat you like a king (documented testimony). Then came down with all kinds of blessings. Awesome God, no one like Him.
- Many, many strange risings will take place here this year.
- It has started, it shall keep increasing and YOU WILL BE ON THAT LIST!
- YOU WILL BE ON THE LIST OF EMERGING GIANTS!
- THE KINGS OF THE EARTH WILL START LOOKING FOR YOU!
- YOU WILL BE HONOURED FROM QUARTERS YOU LEAST EXPECTED AS YOU ENGAGE WITH THE COVENANT KEEPING GOD IN THIS GREAT SEASON OF DIVINE OPPORTUNITIES.
- YOU WILL NOT MISS IT, IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST.
The question, “Who is a servant of God?” may be on the heart of people but from scriptures, we understand that anyone serving the interest of another is the servant of the one he serves. Serving God and the interest of His Kingdom is what makes one a servant of God.
It is not a title, “I AM A SERVANT OF GOD!”
What makes you a servant is to serve and serving the interest of your master, in this case your Father in Heaven and His business on earth as Jesus said, “I must be about my Father’s business”; it is what makes you and I a servant of God in deed.
Serving God is neither a calling nor a gift, it is simply a choice (Joshua 24:15).
If they obey and serve Him, if they CHOOSE to serve Him, they shall spend their days in prosperity and their years in pleasures (Job 36:11).
Serving God entitles a believer to rewards that has no comparison on the earth, the kind we just heard.
“I have never fasted 21 days in my life but I did. In spite of the blood cancer plague, I began to pray Kingdom Advancement prayers fervently” (documented testimony). And God said, “No, I need such fellows to remain here, so cancer OUT!” And flushed it out like a dream of the night.
No comparison on the earth.
“Thou shall serve and your God shall bless; He will take sickness away from the midst of you…” (Exodus 23:25).
This is why it makes sense, a lot of Bible sense, to be steadfast, always abounding in the works of the Lord for as much as you know that your labour in the Lord is not in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58).
SERVING GOD IS EVERY BELIEVER’S COVENANT RESPONSIBILITY.
Job 36:11
You don’t have to be an Apostle to serve God. Just be committed to the interest of His Kingdom and you are His servant. Abraham was a most blessed businessman, but God called him, ‘My servant’.
Whosoever you yield yourself to obey, the servants ye are to whom you obey (Romans 6:16).
Abraham, a die-hard beaten man. Whatever God said was final, everything cancelled, all appointments suspended: Just say it God, I am set.
Get thee out of thy country: He departed.
Circumcise all male born in your household: He began with himself as soon as God let off.
“Take your only son, Isaac, whom thou lovest, offer him for a burnt offering on a mountain that I will show you”: he rose up early in the morning, he went (Genesis 22:2-3).
That’s what made him (Abraham) a servant (Psalm 105:42).
You are not wasting your time serving the Lord, it is a covenant platform among others, for your health and longevity (Exodus 23:25-26).
Every child of God that is committed to reconciling the world back to God is defined as an ambassador for Christ (2 Corinthians 5: 17-20). Every new creature that engages with Him ministry of reconciliation, in reaching out to the lost and bringing them back to God is called an ambassador for Christ.
When you are faithfully engaging, you are entitled to health and longevity (Proverbs 13:17).
-In the name of the Lord Jesus, every serving, genuinely serving member of this Church is ordained to enjoy a good old age in strength and vitality.
-In the name of Jesus, that is You.
-Your own family shall be known as a family of longevity.
-No one among us will die young.
That siege is over. In anyone’s family, that siege is over in the name of Jesus.
We had a very humbling testimony yesterday from our Yoruba Church. A 54-year old woman had her first child. She was all about sharing fliers in her neighbourhood, “come to Church on Sunday”, a woman came on her, “You barren woman, be sharing Bishop’s papers all around. If you have a child, will you be sharing fliers around?”
The nurse aid behind her, went to her going about, “you have problem.” She continued, suddenly she became pregnant. This is 2020’s testimony oooh and now with a child. She kept going.
Here is this mystery: her stomach wasn’t coming out, the child will be as if it is lost whenever she gets home but in Church the child will be kicking. She delivered and invited the woman to come for the naming.
I asked whether she came, they said, “she didn’t come.”
-Your enemies will cover their face with shame, this year.
So she continued, “this is the God that gave me my child. Come and share fliers. You too, come and share fliers.”
I’m not sure she was preaching anything, she was just sharing fliers. She went outside the gate bearing His reproach and God wiped off all her reproach.
-It’s our season of diverse opportunities for those who can see it.
“I stand at the door and knock. If you open up, I will take you up. If you open up, I will wipe away your shame. If you open up, I will change your story” (Revelation 3:20). It is all left to you.
We are in the month of March, this is the 3rd month of the year. Your own supernatural package is waiting.
-May no one lose his own package to carelessness.
It’s waiting!!!
I didn’t become a servant of God when He called me. I’ve been serving long time. You can ask Him.
You are running crusade, who are you then? For what were you doing that?
You are in partnership with Jesus, you got involved in Church planting at the age of 19, for what? And you are not the Pastor of that Church and you have no title, you are serving His interest.
There is no input today that will not speak tomorrow. You are not wasting your time serving the Lord, you are simply investing into your destiny.
-No one here will be disappointed.
Say with me, “I am not wasting time serving the Lord, I am engaging the Covenant platform for my change of story. My change of story is settled this year. I make my choice to go outside bearing His reproach, so He can take away every form of shame and reproach from my life.”
Celebrate this opportunity that God has granted you and me! Celebrate this opportunity that God has granted you as a person. Don’t watch others go forth, you go forth.
God does not bless groups, He blesses individuals.
God does not honour groups, He honours individuals.
God does not promote groups, He promotes individuals.
-You are the next in line for His promotion!
-You are the next in line for His honour!
-You are the next in line for His blessings!
With or without you and with or without me, God’s agenda cannot fail.
Yesterday again, we laid the foundation for 170 New Churches. You can’t believe it, we are only chasing after certificates of the land. You will hear the news again this week of what God is set to do; everybody is refreshed and relaxed, no tension.
God is up to anything He wants to do.
Please wake up and know that it is for your benefit. There is nothing you do or you don’t do that impacts on God.
The good news that will humble the proud and we don’t want one single proud person here, because he won’t see grace and he will start wondering if it is working: It is working.
God does not need you for anything.
“How can you say that?” God said so, “If I were hungry, would I have asked” (Psalm 50:12)
But you need Him, I need Him for everything. My obedience is to meet my needs, not God’s needs. God is a needs free God; the earth is the Lord’s (Psalm 24:1)
That my son who built that Church, I don’t know him (documented testimony). I am hearing for the first time this morning but God knows him and changed his story dramatically.
There is no, “you want to build a Church, come and build one”: No!
He said he heard that thing, told his wife, his wife said, “great idea, let’s go for it.” But God marked him down. It has to be in your heart first before it can reach your hand. So the money we put up for one business, he said no, let’s do His business first. Church Gist. Then God just catapulted him. Haba. 2020 to 2021 February, catapulted him.
-You will see wonders this year.
Engage with your time on the prayer altar.
Don’t drag your feet when you are sharing the gospel with anybody. Go forth with smiles. You are opening up a new chapter to your destiny.
SPEAK TO THE MONTH

The month is declared a blessed month.
A month of testimonies indeed.
A month of going forward in all areas.
