Welcome to August the Month of Total Recovery

1 Samuel 30:18,2 Kings 6::5-7

Recovery implies that you lost something and then got it back.
In 2 Kings 6:5-7, the bible tells us that one of the sons of the
prophet was cutting down the trees by river Jordan and the axe
head fell into the river, but through the intervention of God he
got the axe head back. This is an example of recovery.
You will recover everything you have lost in Jesus name.

In 2 Kings 5:14, the bible says that after Naaman dipped into
river Jordan the seventh time, his skin was returned to him like
the skin of a newborn child. In other words, there was no sign
left on his body to suggest that he was ever a leper. I am
prophesying that by the time God finishes with you, nobody will
know that you ever went through a season of loss.

John 10:10 says that the thief does not come except to steal, and
to kill, and to destroy. I pray that you will recover all that the
devil has stolen from you, physically or spiritually, in Jesus

name.

For you to have total recovery, you must be a man or a woman
of praise, prayer and faith.

I pray that you will recover all that you have lost to the enemy in
Jesus mighty name.

Our Month of THE LIGHT 

John 1:6-9, John 8:12 

In John 8:12, Jesus says that He is the light of the world. In other words,  there is no other light. Jesus is the only light that can dispel darkness in  your life. 

The Bible says, in Genesis 1:1-5, that in the beginning, the earth was  without form, it was void, and darkness covered the face of the deep. This  means that darkness is associated with two principal things: confusion  and emptiness. Confusion means disorder. For example, when you trace  the root of a disorderly marriage, you will find a force of darkness in  operation. Emptiness is the opposite of fullness. For example, when you  trace the root cause of a womb that is empty instead of producing  children, you will find a force of darkness in operation. Are you in  darkness about yourself, your marriage, your finances, your future, your  children or your health? Are you confused and having the feelings of  emptiness, come to Jesus Christ, the light of the world. Follow Him and  He will give you the light of life.  

The Bible also uses darkness metaphorically to symbolize distress,  mourning, perplexity, ignorance and death (Isaiah 9:1-2, Job 5:14) and  moral depravity (John 3:19, Romans 13:12-13, Ephesians 5:11). We daily  hear news of terrorism, war, oppression, sexual abuse, greed. There is  also an abundance of pornography and filthy language. These are the  realities of darkness in our world today.  

Many people walk in darkness, “…in the futility of their minds, darkened  in their understanding, alienated from the life of God, ignorant because  of the blindness of their heart and working all uncleanness with  greediness…” – Ephesians 4:17-29. 

My prayer for you is that the light of Jesus Christ will shine into  everything that resembles darkness in your life and that, according to  Matthew 5:14, you will become a light to others who walk in darkness as  you reflect the light of Jesus Christ in your own life.  

Happy new month. Shalom.

Our Month of THE PRESENCE OF GOD 

Isaiah 43:2; Exodus 33:13-15; Matthew 28:20

God has given you and I the opportunity to walk and dwell in His presence but it is unbelievable that some Christians never exercise this wondrous privilege. Each day, believers still say no to God’s offer of fellowship, choosing instead to spend time filling their minds with garbage on television, with gossip or with mindless recreation. Yet, many believers still search high and low for answers to their problems, never thinking to seek them at the feet of God. They have consulted pastors, counsellors, psychologists, psychiatrists, gurus and self-help books. They have been to seminars, workshops and retreats but all this time, the answers have been waiting for them – in the presence of God. 

God’s Word offers us some practical keys to abiding in His presence. The Bible gives us an understanding of how to enter into God’s presence and remain there. It is only when you learn to do this, that you will find the answers and solutions you are looking for. You will then begin to enjoy the benefits of God’s presence. 

Gloria Copeland made a statement that resonates with me: “To not live daily in God’s presence is not only sinful but stupid.” There is so much to be gained from living and walking in God’s presence, and there is so much we miss when we neglect it. It’s so simple, yet so many believers miss this powerful truth. 

We live in a benefit-oriented society where everyone wants to know, what’s in it for them. There are benefits that come from living and abiding in the presence of God. In the course of the sermons this month, we will see some of these benefits. 

My prayer is that we will all dwell in His Presence and enjoy the benefits that come with it.

Our Month of LOVE 

Mark 12:28-31; 1 Corinthians 13:1-10 

What is love? Love is doing what is best for another no matter what  it costs you. This statement can be broken into three distinct parts; 

First, ‘love is doing’. It is an action. In Mark 12:29-31, we are  commanded to love God and to love our neighbour as ourselves; and  in Matthew 5:43-48, we are commanded to love even our enemies.  This is not about a feeling, because you cannot command feelings.  Love is in doing. 

Second, ‘what is best for another’. Love is to want and to do the  very best for another person; a commitment to their wellbeing. It is  about saying “yes” if their request is for their good and saying “no”  if their request is not for their good. This is why parents discipline  their children out of love, rather than grant requests that enable  harmful behaviour.  

The third part of the statement about love is ‘no matter what it costs  you’. This tells us that love can be costly. It involves sacrifice and  service and it is often painful. God demonstrated this in John 3:16 – For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that  whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. This  is how we know what love is and how God showed His love among  us – 1 John 3:16, 1 John 4:9-10.  

God is love and He loves you more than you can imagine. He is  absolutely committed to doing what is best for you. It is your duty to  love Him in return, no matter what it costs you.  

I pray that God will give you the grace to love as He expects you to  love, in Jesus Christ’s mighty name.  

Happy new month. Shalom.

Welcome to March the month of Abundant life

Who doesn’t yearn to live a satisfied life infused with contentment and joy? The problem is that many times life has a way of tripping us up and knocking us down. We know that Jesus promises in John 10:10, that we can have life and have it in abundance, but how can we capture this abundant life Jesus promised and experience life at its best? God’s Word provides the answer. 

John 3:15 tells us that whoever believes in Him will have eternal life. The only way to have eternal life is through faith in Christ as personal Saviour. There is no other way, or name, neither is there any other religion whereby anyone can be saved. 

But we should not stop here, to have eternal life is great but there is more. Christ came so that we might have life abundantly. All believers have eternal life, but not all believers have abundant life. You are living beneath your privileges if you are a believer and not enjoying the abundant life. 

When the Bible tells us that we are to live our lives abundantly it is not about having a really good paying job, a home, a vacation home, or whatever else some people may say represents abundant life. All these may be good to have but in themselves, they do not impart the abundant life Jesus is talking about. After all, there are Christians who have none of these things, yet they are living the abundant life. For life to be abundant, it must have abundant resources; and the only source of unlimited resources for an abundant life is in the person Jesus Christ the Son of God. 

In order to possess this abundant life, the believer must abide in Christ Jesus – John 15: 1,4,5. My prayer is that you will have and live Jesus Christ’s type of abundant life in Jesus Christ’s mighty name.

Our Month of Jubilation 

Dearly beloved, you are welcome to the first month of the year 2025, our month of Jubilation. 

Jubilation is a feeling of great and extreme happiness, joy and triumph because of something good that happened to you. Jubilation is a shout of praise and a celebration of victory. 

Jubilation precedes celebration. The atmosphere inside of you births your environment on the outside. If you want to celebrate on the outside, you must learn to be jubilant on the inside. In other words, a heart of jubilation releases celebration into your reality. 

Jubilation and celebration are part of the nature of God. When you come into His presence, you must come with jubilation. You do not come sad or mourning because in the presence of God, there is fullness of Joy – Psalm 16:11. When you come into His presence with celebration and jubilation, you are building Him a tabernacle because the Bible says He inhabits our praise – Psalm 22:3. This means that the presence of God is with you every time and everywhere you go if you maintain a life full of praise for God. 

In the kingdom of God, believing is seeing and not the other way round. Your jubilation over something that has not happened shows that you have the assurance that it will happen. Abraham received the promise from God through unwavering faith. “He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God” – Romans 4: 20. 

My prayer for you is that throughout this year 2025, the presence of God will continually be with you as you put conscious effort into Jubilation. 

Happy New Year.
