Divine Visitation

                                                             Divine Visitation

                        Our texts are taken from John 21:1-14, Genesis 45, 1^st Kings 5:1-8

In the gospel reading (John 21:1-14), Jesus reminds us of how much we need HIS direction in our lives; especially in difficult situations. Following HIS resurrection from the dead, the disciples had no one to direct them and decided to go back to their old way of life before they met Christ.  You see brethren that was why they labored day and night and still had nothing to show for it. It was because they had already been elevated from mere fishermen to fishers of men (Mathew 4:19).  We are sometimes like these disciples, going back to the world after we have been saved by Christ, only to discover that we don’t fit in anymore. They were rewarded for their diligence and patience by the LORD with a bountiful catch (153 fishes). When you rely on the LORD’s direction in your life, your testimony becomes extraordinary. It is my prayer that every disappointment and barrenness in your lives will give way for your testimonies. In Jesus Name.

The encounter between the prophet Elisha and the Syrian army in (1^st Kings 5:1-8) is proof that the grace of God is always available to us when it matters most. And in any situation that we may find ourselves, God’s grace is sufficient to sustain and to save us (2^nd Corinthians 12:9). Many are passing through a time of crisis; for some it’s a sort of wilderness experience where everything goes bad before it can get better. Whatever the situation you find yourself, know that it is only temporary and that joy will come in the morning (Psalm 30:5).

It is the will of God to bring us to a place of inner peace, for Jesus is the Prince of peace. So every sickness, barrenness and Afflictions should be placed at the feet of Christ on Calvary’s mountain. For by HIS stripes we are healed (Isaiah 53:5) and by HIS blows we are made whole. The woman with the issue of blood suffered for 12 years until Jesus showed up and changed her situation (Luke 8:43-7). I decree in the life of everyone that reads this: it does not matter how long you have struggled as long as you are willing Jesus is able to resolve all things in your life. Jesus.  Zacchaeus welcomed Christ into his home and he was restoration. Brethren all we have to do is to reach out to the LORD and HE will save you.

The last verse, Genesis Chapter 45 is not just a story about Joseph but it is a lesson on persevering against all odds. It’s all well and good for us to have faith but this passage of scripture makes us realize that Patience is the greatest virtue of all. Even when no one believed in his dream; neither Father nor brothers, Joseph endured slavery and it was only when he entered into Prison did his promotion come. Many of us need go through the wilderness. We sometimes need to patiently wait on the LORD for what HE has promised. Imagine that the lives of millions in Egypt depended on Joseph promotion from Prison to Ruler. If Joseph had given up his dream, then the Egyptians would have died of starvation. He would never have reunited with his family and the Nation of Israel would not exist today. My challenge to every one today is to find your God given destiny and persevere until it comes to pass. If only you will patiently wait on the LORD, believe in your dreams and work to make it a reality, then the world will pause to hear you speak. Joseph was sold into slavery by his brothers; he was falsely imprisoned but his gift became his key to the palace. Do not neglect your God-given talent but rather develop it and be patient. Many believe and wait on the LORD without hard work, such people need understand that hard work is a proof of your faith (James 2:20). Without hard work, your faith is meaningless and without substance.

Finally, divine visitation is only available to those who have an obedient heart, a listening ear and a willing attitude towards God. For us to receive from HIM we must change our attitude towards the things of the LORD. We must put God first in all things, we must also willingly put to death on the cross of Calvary, the nature of sin. For God is holy and demands holiness from those who seek intimacy with HIM. We must be willing to put aside our pride and hold on to the garments of Christ like the woman with the issue of blood.

A Hurricane is Approaching

                               

                          A  HURRICANE IS APPROACHINGFor we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” and again, “The Lord will judge his people.” It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living GOD. (Hebrews 10:30-31).
Brethren, it is with a heavy heart that I bring you this message, it is an urgent call from The LORD to HIS Church to put its house in order. For we are about to enter a period of tribulation and Judgement. By Judgement I mean a season of cleansing. The Church is to undergo a cleansing that is so terrible that there are no words to describe it. People of God, the return of the Master is at hand, and The LORD is seeking a people who will serve in Truth and in Spirit. The following is an account of what The LORD revealed unto me and has commanded that I share it with the Body of Christ. The reader not to ignore the contents of this message and please pass it around. May The LORD bless us as we do HIS WILL? Amen. It is the hour of reconciliation.On the twelfth of September 2015, the Word of the LORD came to me. I saw a great number of the dead littering the land. They were from all the nations of the Earth; from Africa to Europe and even Asia and the Caribbean were represented. The bodies were emanating some sort of weird smell and I noticed that this smell was infecting those living. This plague did not have any cure and the World governments could do nothing. A population of One hundred million was reduced to twenty thousand in the blink of an eye. There is going to be a great storm worse than anything this world has ever seen. People dying from strange ailments, unimaginable epidemic that would leave many homeless. Brethren, this is a call for reconciliation with our GOD; (Colossians 1:22) says “But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in HIS sight, without blemish and free from accusation”. This message is not just to the unbeliever but also to the Saints of GOD; we need to draw near to HIM to ensure that we weather the storm.
“Where are the WATCHMEN? Those who are supposed to be watching over the House of GOD? Why have MY prophets become so untrustworthy? Will I still find Faith when I come?”(Luke 18:8)
Brethren, the time for reconciliation is now, The LORD wants HIS Church to be at alert and to intercede. It is a genuine call to prayer and just like the people of Nineveh in the book of Jonah cry out to GOD and HE will hear us. (Psalm 50:15) says “and call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me.”
Finally, we should not neglect to pray for one another and also for our dear country Nigeria. It was revealed that the crisis rocking the Northern part of the country, would spread to the major cities like Lagos and Port Harcourt, if we do not pray for Nigeria, who will? Beloved of Christ, we are in a season of war: both spiritually and physically. The Word of GOD encourages us to put on our armour (Ephesians 6:13) so that we can stand our ground on the day of evil.

Brethren, will stand your ground and hold the fort on the battle is won? May The LORD enable us by HIS Spirit to stand our ground till the victory is won in JESUS name? Amen.For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” and again, “The Lord will judge his people.” It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living GOD. (Hebrews 10:30-31).
