His Presence,Knowing,Glory,Power

You know today the Church is full of motivational speakers who will tell you that "When the Praises go up,His blessings come down" yes that is true but when we praise God ,He has more in stock for us than just the "Blessings",in fact His blessings are the least things we can ever get,isn't it better to recognize that  "When the Praises go up,His Presence comes down"  isn't  "His Presence,Knowing,Glory,Power e.t.c" greater than His blessings,in fact in them we can find God's blessings and even more.
God seeks for Christians who will Praise and Worship Him not solely because they want His blessings but "He Himself".More than we ever want God wants to reveal Himself to us personally just that we have streamlined and limited our worship to an ATM Machine which we use to collect from God...

GOD'S PRESENCE IS A KNOWING WHICH COMES THROUGH FAITH AND NOT A FEELING!

John17:2-3
"As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give  eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. And this is life eternal,  that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom  thou hast sent."
GOD WANTS TO GIVE US MORE AND ALL OF HIMSELF.

GOOD NEWS!!!

Many a times the devil tries to destabilize us and makes us feel as if we are at the end of the rope,he fills our hearts with fearful thoughts of disasters and dangers,he makes us think our diseases and infirmities are unto death and makes tears run down our eyes due to the pressures of life,he whispers to our ears "you can never rise again" when we fall and makes life look life a home of unending defeats,all these and many more he is doing and is willing to do that the word of God in John10:10a ("The thief cometh not, but  for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy") may be fulfilled,all these are indeed bad news,but not to worry because there is a way of escape,knowing that for every bad news there is an opposite which is a "GOOD NEWS".

Therefore; the Good news is that there is no need to panic or continue in the abyss of oppression because God has made a way out of your predicaments in that same book chapter and verse of John10:10b "I am  come that they might have life, and that  they might have it more abundantly."
And John14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."

That way out you have been looking for is "JESUS"
Jesus is the way out of the devils oppression, Consider Him today and be free from the operations of the devil.

NOW YOUR DESTINY IS YOUR HANDS; "I call Heaven and Earth to witness against you today: I place before you Life and Death, Blessing and Curse. Choose life so that you and your children will live. And love God, your God, listening obediently to him, firmly embracing him. Oh yes, he is life itself, a long life settled on the soil that God, your God, promised to give your ancestors, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob." (Deuteronomy 30:19-20).

JESUS PAID IT ALL

Jesus is talking to you "come out from amongst them,and be ye separate" Come out from amongst those sinful deeds of yours that have held you bound.Yes gold and silver you do not have to bail out yourself from this torment of the devil,but today i announce to you that there is a way out and no need to worry,because Jesus saw your wretchedness and helplessness and paid it all for you on the cross.All you need to do to be free from those habits,be setting sins that have refused to leave you and makes you shed tears after engaging in it, is just to accept the provision that Jesus made for you on the cross.Behold there is a balm in gilead and it is for the healing of the nations,a flowing river at the feet of His great throne for all who thirst to drink from,Food for the spirit in every of His spoken,written and revealed word all just for you. Are you tired of those habits,sinful deeds,or are you thirsty or hungry? Not to worry Jesus paid it all on the cross of calvary all for you,what you just need to do is to accept Him a your Lord and Savior,confess it and live it by living your life based on His word. ‪#‎JESUS‬ INDEED PAID IT ALL FOR YOU.

THEME : IT PAYS TO LIVE HOLY II

Memorise:
For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of
fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst
of her.
Zechariah 2:5

Read: Job 1:8-10
1:8 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou
considered my servant Job, that there is none like
him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man,
one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?
1:9 Then Satan answered the LORD, and said,
Doth Job fear God for nought?
1:10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and
about his house, and about all that he hath on
every side? thou hast blessed the work of his
hands, and his substance is increased in the land.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR : ACTS 27-28 and SONG OF
SOLOMON 8:8-14

Message
Everybody in this world wants to be secure.
Witchcraft is prospering because people feel
insecure and they are looking for security from
any available source. The unfortunate thing is
that, looking for security from the forces of
darkness is looking for security from the very
person who wants to destroy you. Those who are
living a holy life have the protection of the Lord
Almighty. This is because God has built a hedge
around them. In Job 1:9-10, the Bible tells us that
God had put a hedge around Job and his
household. God put a hedge around Job because
he served Him. Job got into the predicament that
befell him because God wanted to prove a point
to Satan. Around every holy child of God, there is
an unseen wall. Satan cannot pass through this
wall because it is made of fire. The Bible in
Zechariah 2:5 says,
“For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of
fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst
of her.”
Satan knows that he is going to end up in the
Lake of fire. He is therefore not very anxious to
taste this fire yet, so when he sees anybody who
is surrounded by this fire, he keeps his distance.
God has made so many promises to those that
are holy. Psalm 91 contains classical examples of
these promises. You cannot abide in the secret
place of the Most High without being holy.
Without being holy, God’s promises cannot be
yours. The fire of the Almighty God is so hot that
when it surrounds you, the fire of this world will
make way for you to pass. We have a good
example in Daniel 3:24-28, where Shadrach,
Meshach and Abednego were put in the fiery
furnace. Their experience confirms what the
scripture says concerning the holy in Isaiah 43:2:
“When thou passest through the waters, I will be
with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not
overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire,
thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame
kindle upon thee.”
There is however one thing that can remove the
security covering from you. This is sin. Whenever
you sin, you create a barrier between you and
God. It is therefore dangerous to sin, not even for
once because you may not be able to recover
from the devastating effect of the ensuing satanic
attack in the course of your backsliding. I pray
that your fire will not go out in Jesus’ Name.

Prayer Point:
Father, whatever will take away your banner of
protection over my life, withhold me from such
from now on.

STUBBORN BULLS AND GOATS...

By Pastor Great Emmanuel Donatus.

STUBBORN BULLS AND GOATS Just recently,I finished killing three (3)
very big,strong and stubborn
Chickens,all in 10 to 15 minutes (Dont
ask me what for..lol). I was all sweaty
and a bit tired afterwards coz those
guys have really grown and strong,they had muscles!..lol And mehn!, it
quickly brought to mind
the Levitical priesthood of Israel. And I
was like, 'Boy,is this how the Priests
killed numerous bulls and goats for the
many sins of Israel everyday?!' I could
imagine! Israel, a stubborn people, around 1.3 million people, so
rebellious. And then, for every of their
sin, there was always a goat to
slaughter, and a bull to kill! Think of it! A GOAT, A BULL! Nobody
likes to be compared to a goat! You
know those animals are naturally
stubborn, very strongwilled and
strongheaded! I tried to travel back in
time to view what it looked like. I killed 3 strong Chickens in a short
space of
time, and I was all sweaty. Imagine
killing bulls and goats every blessed
day for about 40 years! Even if not for
40years,close to it! Not for one, not for
two, not for three persons! They must have killed at least a thousand
everyday since there were about 1.3
million people travelling to Canaan at
that time. 1000 might even be an
understatement! Maybe I want to be
merciful on them. Those Priests must have built so much
muscles doing that everyday!..lol. No
matter how enjoyable the job wij look
at first, after sometime, it will surely
bore them! They might be planning to
take a rest after killing say 200 at a time, and as they are about to sit,
another set of maybe liars, thieves and
adulterers will just throng to the
entrance again. And work begins. Maybe they even made a roster for the
'Killing Time of Bulls and Goats'..Maybe
they say, 'For thieves,come from the
6th to the 9th hour of the day. For
adulterers, so you wont feel too
ashamed, come in the 3rd watch of the night'..lol. Many permutations!
And I just kept
thinking and broadening my
imaginations to see various
possibilities. But bottomline, IT MUST
HAVE BEEN STRESSFUL! That made me cherish the Sacrifice of
my Jesus much more! It was a Once-
And-For-All payment for my Sins. "And every priest stands ministering
daily and offering repeatedly the same
sacrifices, which can never take away
sins. But this Man, after He had offered one
sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at
the right hand of God, from that time
waiting till His enemies are made His
footstool. For by one offering He has perfected
forever those who are being
sanctified." (Hebrews 10:11-14). No need to come back in the afternoon
or evening coz it's not yet Killing Time. No stress of resharpening the
axe,
knife, cutlass of whatever was used to
kill the bulls and goats every time. No need of cleaning the instruments
of
killing everytime after use! No need of looking for where to get
more bulls and goats since the ones in
my flock have been exhaused due to
my many sins! No need for worry about scarcity or
fee-hike of bulls and goats.

ALL GONE! ALL GONE!! ALL GONE!!! BECAUSE
OF THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS! It was STRESSFUL yet it was NEEDFUL
It was PAINFUL yet it is GAINFUL
I was UNFAITHFUL but He is FAITHFUL
My bucket was SIN-FULL yet He is
MERCY-FULL
Because He is GRACEFUL, I will forever be GRATEFUL! WHAT AN
EXCHANGE!

Excellent Chucka

He was very intelligent in the class, he
has won many awards, gifts and also a
scholarship.
He answers any question in the class.
The school cannot exist one day
without mentioning the name of chuka.
His own intelligence is versatile.
He is good in all the subject, if chuka
mistakenly graduates from secondary
school and university also, every
company will like to have him as a
staff, his brain was like that of a
computer.
But something happened, one day
chuka wanted to jump over a fence,
when he finally Jumped the fence, he
landed on a dangerous ground, and he
died instantly.
What a sad story to everyone that
chuka has died. He died with all his
intelligence, smartness, and all his
knowledge.
This is what I called unfulfilled
destiny.
A destiny that has been discovered but
the enemy succeeded and made it
unfulfilled.
Some of you reading this has a great
destiny in life but the enemy has been
standing against it.
Don't think that the present level you
are now in this life, is the level where
you suppose to be.
Child of God, I pray for you and i today that
We must fulfill our destiny, we will
never die without fulfilling our destiny
in jesus name!

Jesus is the only one who can secure your
destiny for you,
Accept Him today.
