Point Of Contact I
2 Kings 13: 18 “…Strike the ground”; so he struck three times, and stopped. 19 And the man of God was angry with him, and said, “You should have struck five or six times; then you would have struck Syria till you had destroyed it…” [NKJV]
Please read Ex.14:15-22. This is the example of Moses parting the red sea. Ex .14:21 “Then Moses raised his hand over the sea, and the Lord opened up a path through the water with a strong east wind…”. Moses lifted up his hand and God parted the sea. If Moses had not lifted up his rod, would the sea have parted? If God had not sent the east wind, would the sea have parted? Read the rest of this entry
The Anointing
1 Jn 2:20 “But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things… 27 …the anointing …abides in you, …the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him” [NKJV]
I pray that as you trust God for a miracle and come into His Presence with your point of contact item, God’s wonders will burst forth in your life, in Jesus Name. When we look at the supernatural and at the miracles of God, we cannot but talk about the power of God – the anointing of the Holy Spirit. The nature of the anointing is that it is difficult to separate the anointing of God from God. The anointing of God and God are almost inseparable. Read the rest of this entry
Lifestyle Adjustment
Jn.12:24 “I tell you the truth, unless a kernel (seed) of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce many new kernels–a plentiful harvest of new lives” [with emphasis].
The formula for abundant harvest is this – the Right Seed + the Right Soil + the Right Conditions = Abundant Harvest. With me and I am sure with all of us, God always ensues that we are not just preaching the Word but that we are doers also. So opportunities will come for you to do the Word, I pray you will always take them head on, making God proud.
Fight Back
Heb.4:2 “Those people in the wilderness heard God’s good news, just as we have heard it, but the message they heard didn’t do them any good since it wasn’t combined with faith. [Voice]
The farmer’s work does not stop when he plants, in actual sense that is just the beginning. The second thing the farmer needs to do to provide the right condition for the seed, is to protect it against pests, animals, and infections. Pay close attention because this is really important. You need to guard your seed! The reality is that when the farmer plants, he actually enters a phase of warfare because from planting to harvesting is battle.
Perspective
Gen.26:1 “And there was a famine in the land… 12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him” [KJV]
Eccl.11:1 “Don’t be afraid to release your bread upon the waters, for in due time you will find it…4 Those who watch and wait for favorable winds never plant, and those who watch and fret over every cloud never harvest” [Voice]. Do not wait until the conditions are perfect; that is what God says in His Word. Start from where you are. When there is famine, the rational thing to do is to hoard resources, ration things and set up structural adjustment programs. But the Bible says in that same year Isaac sowed, I mean that is huge! If Isaac observed the wind and watched every cloud, he would not have sown. Read the rest of this entry
The Workings I
Eccl.11:1 “Don’t be afraid to release your bread upon the waters, for in due time you will find it…4 Those who watch and wait for favorable winds never plant, and those who watch and fret over every cloud never harvest” [Voice].
Years ago I was on a project for a year and a half and I was tired of the project. I wanted to go back to Lagos. So I got the permission to go back. Then I realized that while I was working on the project, I had a free house, car with a driver attached but back home, I did not have a car. So I had a pressing need. I needed a miracle. I had put money aside to buy a big screen television because I like media. Read the rest of this entry
Rs + Rs + Rc = AH!
1 Cor.3:6 “I planted the seed in your hearts, and Apollos watered it, but it was God who made it grow” [with emphasis].
Yesterday we highlighted the three glaring components of an abundant harvest from 1 Corinthians 3:6. The first is the seed [I planted]; there can be no harvest without a seed. The second is the soil [in your hearts]; the seed must have good soil. And number three is the right condition [Apollos watered]. So the formula for abundant harvest is this – the Right Seed + the Right Soil + the Right Conditions = Abundant Harvest. So in whatever area you want an abundant harvest [spiritual growth, finances, marital harmony, career, or souls], it is the same formula.
The Formula
1 Cor.3:7 “It’s not important who does the planting, or who does the watering. What’s important is that God makes the seed grow.”
You and I must make it our priority to connect to the heart of our Father and not just focus on getting results alone. The truth is that the formula will deliver results and that is unquestionable. But the question is, is that proceeding from the heart of the Father? So if you are just about the formula, you will get results. But it is for this same reason a lot of “tongue-talking” people are going to hell. People are actually using their spiritual armory to perform witchcraft and it has nothing to do with God. Some Christians are praying for other Christians to fall down and die. Do you think their Father, our Father will be happy? Is that proceeding from His heart? Let pleasing the heart of the Father be your goal at all times.
Tactical Maneuver
John 8:6 “This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.” [KJV]
I have taken steps that if God did not come through, I would have died. But God came through. You cannot buy the Holy Ghost with money. Simon the sorcerer saw what was happening and he offered to give Stephen and Peter money in exchange for the power to work miracles. Their response to him is as true today as it was in his day; you cannot buy the Holy Ghost with money. I had to sit down under Pastor Sam and learn what he was doing. I had to learn that the Holy Spirit is the source of miracles and that when it comes to faith, having a plan B negates your faith. What do you need to know and who do you need to learn from?
Be Aware I
Ps.104:3 “You lay out the rafters of your home in the rain clouds. You make the clouds your chariot; you ride upon the wings of the wind. 4 The winds are your messengers; flames of fire are your servants”
2 Kings 6:15 “When the servant of the man of God got up early the next morning and went outside, there were troops, horses, and chariots everywhere. “Oh, sir, what will we do now?” the young man cried to Elisha. Elisha said something very significant. 2 Kings 6:16 “Don’t be afraid!” Elisha told him. “For there are more on our side than on theirs!” [with emphasis]. If I were that man I would have said, “Sir, it is just you and me standing here and the armies outside are in their hundreds. How can you say there are more on our side?”
