Sunday Service ; 11th Nov - Stop of Stagnation

John 1- 9

What is Bathesda.

Bathseda is a pool with 5 porches...
Bathesda stand for Mercy and 5 is number of grace..

This is the church.. A place of mercy and grace.

There in Bathesda, you have the impotent in all manners of things... The blind and the disillusioned.

Bathseda does not reject anyone.. Now will you get mercy and grace though it has been made abundantly available.


We that already have mercy and grace should show this to those that are yet to see when they come to the house of God.

Who are we to condemn others when we are yet to look like HIM...

Your process of looking like HIM is being like him that gives mercy and favour to all that come to him in faith.

The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me. (John 5:7)

This man was striving for opportunity in a place of limited opportunity. Note there are only 5 porches and 1 main pool. The pool can only take 6 at a time.
Note this person has no support system.. He said he had nobody.

Stagnation thrives when there is no support system. No network.
Network is not just about business network, even in your prayer life.

Note iron sharpeneth iron.

This man was waiting for 38year.. And claimed he had no man. He abandoned his future into the hand of a man or a woman who did and may never come.

The world will not give onto you what you wish for but what you demand..

If not for Christ, this man would have died for ever waiting. Jesus broke the yoke in his life...

Note Jesus, did not lay his hand on him or prayed for or with him...

He simply said to him ... RISE...

Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. (John 5:8)

And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath. (John 5:9)

But this man has been complaining he has never been able to rise..

Jesus simply spoke to the potential in this man. Jesus knew this man can rise on his own and spoke to that that is in him...

Jesus is our energiser... You need to rise..

Do not tie your miracle to that of others and expecting them to lift you to your position. You will have to stand up.

God created us to work in networks, but not to depend on anyone..

The man's mindset has held him down for 38 years..

Jesus made him to realize he does not need to get into the pool, he just needed to RISE, RISE, RISE and make your desire a reality. He needed to stir up the pool in his belly not wait for anyone.

The potential of Christ is already in you, he has been speaking unto you.

Do not wait for any angel to stir a pool, stir the pool within you..

Stir a pool inside you... Out of you comes streams of living water..

You will give streamingly to others not just for yourself.

Look up not to man..

I will look up onto heaven... Where cometh my help, my help cometh from the Lord... Who is where?... Inside of me. Stir up your pool...

Note... When you stir up your pool, there are fights to be fought, but He has already conquered on your behalf.

Have a blessed day...

Message Sunday 21st 2012

Uncommon Blessing - Acting on divine instruction.

Obeying laws gives you the benefit of the law and the contrary to a curse and that is the consequence of violation

Giving is has laws attached to it...

Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. (Luke 6:38)


It is not what you do not have that makes you poor. It what you hold on to that makes you poor.

This does not only apply to physical things but mainly to mind set.

So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink. (1 Kings 17:10). ....... ...

And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days. (1 Kings 17:15)

There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. (Proverbs 11:24)

The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself. (Proverbs 11:25)

Note: the gift of a man makes room for him.

Note the lad that gave five loaves of bread and 2 fishes...

It is important to teach our children to give now.

Every time you identify a need in a ministry is an opportunity to sow and reap.

He created their need so that he can bless a man.

Recall the story of the woman that built a house and took care of Elisha? The woman eventually conceived and brought forth a child.

FW: <<KingdomTalk>> Ten Ways to Get People to Change

-----Original Message-----

Subject: Re: <<KingdomTalk>> Ten Ways to Get People to Change

The subject of change is fast becoming a daily dose of meal from every angle and corner of human endeavor.
Viewing this subject from the perspective of someone desiring it, suffice it to say that we seldom prepare for it despite praying for it. I have noticed that the way God answers our prayer on this change thing is often unprepared for by us. While we expect some easy-peezy letter of promotion, platter of gold type of change, He allows more troubles and persecution to deal with and prune us, making us refined and meet for the Master's use. At such times, we say God has not answered our prayers and get discouraged. He works from the bigger picture perspective while we see it from our narrow view corner.
Thanks for sharing these texts.

Subject: Message 30th Sept 2012 - Renewing you marriage


Ephsian 5:22 -

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; (Ephesians 5:25)

Two words that define love are sacrifice and commitment.

The love explained in Ephisian is Agape love...

Note Agape love is really not Natural...

You have to create it and force feed it..

You have to make it happen..

It is sacrifice and commitment.

Agape Love is unconditional love...

You must work at it..

If you see a green turf... Note that is being watered by someone, it is hard work to keep it green.

Hope

H - Holding
O - On
P - Praying
E - Expectantly

We need grace to have agape love... Unconditional love..


TLLC - The Light and Love Christ

Are you mission. minded...

From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day. (Matthew 16:21)

Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee. (Matthew 16:22)

But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men. (Matthew 16:23)

When you consider your shape it gives you an opportunity to consider God's mission with your life.

Sunday Service 8th July 2012

Why should we confess

1. God's word is a creative power..

Your words have been stout against me, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, What have we spoken so much against thee? (Malachi 3:13)

God will not do what is against your confession and desire???

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus; (Hebrews 3:1)

Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. (Hebrews 4:14)

In Genesis... God's words leads to his making... Gen 1:3.... But compare with Gen 1:31.... Where saying became what God made...


2. Our mouth will bring out the deposit of our heart...

My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. (Psalms 45:1)

A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. (Matthew 12:35)

3. We receive God's word by confessing it...


For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. (Matthew 12:37)

Note... The mouth speak out of the fullness of the heart...

That is why you need to fill your heart with God's word, leading to fullness of which you confess from.

And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. (Matthew 17:20)

You magnify God for your own sake not to make God bigger than what he is... It is not your words that makes God bigger, but you need to remind your self of Gods bigness and that propels you to his presence, that is why we magnify him... It is a remembrance to our own soul of the awesomess of God so that our soul is lifted up in faith based on reminding our self what he is to us and has done to us.

5. God activate angelic activities.

You need to call on your angels .... Using the word of word...

Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word. (Psalms 103:20)

Read the book from Charles Kapp on Angels.

6. Confession releases God's Ability in you.

7. Confession releases the faith in you.

By hearing and rehearsing the word of God so is you faith stirred...

Why should we confess
