Great Turn Around

Image
*Philippians 3:1-10; 2 Corinthians 4:16* As we delve into the scriptures, we find a remarkable example of a great turnaround experience in the life of Apostle Paul. His transformation from a zealous persecutor of Christians to a passionate follower of Jesus Christ is a testament to the power of faith. In Philippians 3:9, Apostle Paul emphasizes the key factor in experiencing a great turnaround: Faith. It is not merely knowing the doctrine about God but having an experiential knowledge of Him. To effect a great turnaround, we must: 1. Know the Lord experimentally (Philippians 3:9) 2. Experience the power of resurrection (Romans 4:25, 1 Corinthians 15:17) 3. Participate in the fellowship of His suffering (Colossians 1:24, 2 Timothy 2:11) 4. Be conformed to His death (Romans 8:29, Galatians 2:20) 5. Attain to His resurrection (Philippians 3:20-21) Paul's journey serves as a case study for us. As we go through these stages, we too can experience a great turnaround in our lives. *Prayer...

CONNECTING TO THE LIFTER OF HEADS

Image
In Psalm 3:1-3 and 1 Samuel 2:7, we're reminded that God is the lifter of heads. He has a history of elevating individuals from humble beginnings to positions of power and influence. Let's look at a few examples: - Joseph became the prime minister - Abraham became the father of nations - Aaron became a priest - Esther became a queen - David, a shepherd boy, became a king - Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego became relevant Only God can lift someone from the dungeon to a place of prominence. Divine lifting means receiving favor from both God and men (Proverbs 3:4). It's about moving from debt to prosperity (2 Samuel) and from the tail to the head (Deuteronomy 28:14). When we seek the kingdom of God, we're automatically connected to the lifter of heads, and He will lift us up (1 Samuel 2:7). So, what do we receive when we connect to the lifter of heads? - Turnaround for favor - Fantastic elevation - Victory, even when undeserved - Mockers changed to promoters - Surprising bl...

HOLY COMMUNION

Image
The holy communion is a very powerful meal… In fact, as we prepare for tonight service, the Lord said to me that tonight's communion service is an inauguration into the Supernatural life… This is great in implications; if you read Exodus 12, you'll see how the communion/Passover put a demarcation on the Israelites in Egypt, draws God to revenge on the enemies of Israel by killing all firstborn, deliverance, Angelic intervention and healing of all sickness and diseases (internal and external healing) etc. - mass exodus! So I have no doubt whether or not you'll be delivered and unquestionably free tonight, but my fear is for what was supposed to be for your freedom not ending up in putting you in bondage hence, this warning! It is holy communion not dirty communion i.e. hallowed meal… - You'll remember in the days of Moses, anyone who's not a native of Israel was not allowed to partake in it… Exodus 12:43-45, Numbers 9:14 (NIV) - Judas Iscariot partook of it with the ...
