OVERCOMING WEARINESS

Weariness is satan’s weapon to frustrate the saints from taking their blessings.

It comes when hope seems gone and waiting seems not necessary any longer.

When weariness is not stemed it extends to frustration which in turn can open the door to all kinds of evil.

If you want to escape weariness, tame your utterances.

To dismantle weariness offer strong thanksgiving and praise to God always. Thanksgiving are hardly worn out, thanksgiving naturally wears out the enemy.

What to Do While You’re Waiting for an Answer to Prayer

by Gloria Copeland

Have you been praying for something? The answer to a particular question? The resolution to a problem? The fulfillment of a deep desire? If so, then you’re waiting for an answer to your prayer. And aren’t you glad that God is in the prayer-answering business? Now that doesn’t mean that you will get every little thing you ask for, exactly when you ask for it. Sometimes you have to be like a farmer planting a crop. You have to sow it, water it and wait for it to grow.

But instead of sowing a physical seed in the ground, you sow a spiritual one. This requires a four-step process:

1. Do Sow Your Seed
   Sow the seed of love, faith, finances…whatever it is that you are believing for. For example, if you are believing for your financial debts to be paid, sow a financial gift to help ease someone else’s financial debt. If you are believing for a family of your own, then sow time into another family by offering to babysit or assist with some need in their home.
2. Do Stay Focused on the Word
   After you’ve sown your seed, it’s time to keep your eyes and heart focused on what God’s Word says about it. Find scriptures relating to your need. This website is filled with articles and scriptures to help you stand for your answered prayer—everything from finances to healing to relationship issues and more.
3. Do Speak the Word
   Water your seed by speaking the Word over it. The Word of God will go to work on your seed and give it the nourishment it needs to grow.
4. Do Continue to Stand Strong
   When doubts come to your mind that say, This isn’t going to happen. I’ll never have my prayers answered,continue to stand. Continue to speak the Word over your seed. The Word of God will do two things during this time: continue to work on your seed and weed out the negative thoughts from your mind.

While you’re waiting for an answer to your prayer, don’t give up. Be diligent to patiently watch, wait, and use the Word as your water and cultivator. Soon, you’ll begin to see some movement. You’ll begin to see growth. And finally, you will receive your harvest—your answered prayer!

Don’t Dig Up Your Seed!

Genesis 8:22 in The Amplified Bible, Classic Edition, says, “While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.”  For the sake of illustration, separate those two words—seedtime and harvest—into three words…seed, time and harvest…because no harvest is immediate. It’s a process that takes time.

It takes your faith in the Word working on that seed, processing it. You put it into the ground and patiently wait. You don’t go dig it up to see if it’s still there. No, faith knows it’s still in the ground, and patience waits for it to come to maturity.

It’s going to take some time, but there’s going to be a harvest to your prayer if you’ll stay with it. In Jesus’ parable in Luke 8:15, He said of the man who sowed into good ground, “on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience” (KJV).

That may help you to be patient.  It may help you realize that it’s just a matter of time before your harvest—your answer to prayer—comes. Your job, at this point, is to plant your seed into good ground, to keep it watered with the Word, to let the Word keep out the doubt, and then to patiently wait until it’s harvest time.

Don’t give up on your prayer! For whatever seed you have planted according to the Word, your harvest is coming!

Your answer to prayer is that the crop (your harvest!) will come exactly when it’s needed. God knows when the right time is…and when you need it, it will be there!

How to Leave a Godly Heritage for Our Children

//Kenneth W. Hagin
I was fortunate to grow up in the home of Kenneth E. Hagin. He was my natural father and a spiritual father to many. Although my dad is now in Heaven, his example of faith still lives with me today. I can recall the victories he obtained through his faith in God. My father's faith endured many tests and trials and got us all through many rough times.
My dad was a fine example of a godly father. Abraham of the Old Testament is another example of a godly father. In Romans 4:16 (NLT ) Abraham is called "the father of all who believe." Throughout history, he has affectionately been called "Father Abraham."
The way Abraham endured to receive the promise of God has helped many believers to stand firm on God's Word as they go through difficult times. Abraham's life is also an example to all of us who are fathers.
He shows us how to leave a godly heritage for our children. The following acrostic of the word "father" reveals some of the many lessons Abraham gave us.

F stands for faith. Abraham was a man of faith.

When God told Abraham in Genesis 12 to leave his country and go to a land that God would show him, Abraham obeyed the Word of the Lord, even though he did not know where he was going.
Every time a father obeys God, he leaves an example for his children to follow. I watched my dad obediently follow the call of God on his life. As a result, I learned how to use my faith to follow God's plan for my life.

A stands for available. Abraham was available to his family.

According to Genesis 21:8 (TLB), after Isaac was weaned, ". . . Abraham gave a party to celebrate the happy occasion."
One of the most important things a father can do for his children is to spend time with them. I understand that a father has a responsibility as head of the household to provide for his family. But spending quality time with our children will mean more to them than any amount of money.

T stands for tested. Abraham taught his son how to pass the tests of life.

Genesis 22 records how God tested Abraham's faith and obedience by requiring him to sacrifice his son Isaac. Abraham used his faith in God to get through this test. And children need to see from our example that obeying God is the most important thing they can do in life.

H stands for help. Abraham helped his son find a godly wife (Gen. 24).

As fathers, we must teach our children how to make wise decisions. To do this, we cannot make every decision for our children, but we must train them in such a way that they will learn how to make right choices on their own. If they learn how to make good decisions when they are young, then they will continue making right decisions when they are older.

E stands for encouragement. Abraham encouraged his son to believe God.

When Abraham and Isaac were climbing Mount Moriah to offer a sacrifice to God, Isaac asked his father, ". . . but where is the lamb for the sacrifice?" (Gen. 22:7 TLB). Isaac had his doubts, but Abraham quickly encouraged his son to believe God by replying, "God will see to it, my son" (v.8 TLB).
Abraham and Isaac worked together to offer a sacrifice to God. Isaac carried the wood and Abraham carried the knife and fire. Unfortunately, we fathers often tell our children what to do, but we don't do it with them. If we tell our children to go to church and serve God, then we ought to go to church and serve God with them.

R stands for responsibility. Abraham was responsible to take care of his family.

Abraham raised his children in the reverence of God. Fathers, you have the responsibility to lead your family in the things of God. Your children need to see you praying and reading your Bible.
General Douglas MacArthur felt this same way. He once said, "By profession I am a soldier and take pride in that fact. But I am prouder—infinitely prouder—to be a father. . . . It is my hope that my son . . . will remember me not from the battlefield but in the home repeating with him our simple daily prayer." ¹
Fathers, it is our responsibility to show our children how to be responsible with their money, work, and fellow man. But above all, we need to teach them how to be responsible and true to our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.

THE ARGUMENT BASED ON EZEKIEL 18

THE ARGUMENT BASED ON EZEKIEL 18

We will first begin from the Old Testament. Let us consider Ezekiel 18:24 and 26, which say, "But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die...When a righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die." These two verses can be considered as the main verses in the Old Testament concerning this matter. No other verses in the Old Testament are as important as these. These are the most common and most frequently quoted verses. Hence, we have to devote some thoughtful consideration to these two verses.
Ezekiel 18 never speaks of salvation. It does not say anything about Jesus dying for man, nor does it say anything about believing in the Lord to receive life. It does not say how one takes care of the problem of sin. It does not mention anything about the gospel or about Christ. If one tries by force to apply this passage to the gospel, he is confusing the issue. Ezekiel 18 speaks of God’s government. What precedes this passage are things related to God’s government. One must remember that things in God’s government are totally different from things in salvation. God’s government refers to how God works, manages, and arranges things according to His plan and will. If a man does not understand the difference between God’s salvation and His government, and if he mixes the two together, he is mixing up God’s law court with God’s family, the father with the judge. He is confusing the word spoken by the father to the servants with the word spoken to the sons. He is confusing the attitude a man has toward his employees with the attitude he has toward his wife and children. Government is government. Government is not the same as salvation. The difference between government and salvation is as great as the distance between the north pole and the south pole.
Ezekiel 18 does not show us salvation. Its subject is how the Israelites can live on the earth. It does not speak of eternal life. It speaks of the problem with the body. It does not deal with the question of perdition for the soul. Rather, it shows us that if a man does not keep the commandment of God, he will die early physically. It is a question of physical existence rather than spiritual salvation. No one can ever say that a son’s teeth should be set on edge just because his father has eaten sour grapes. If someone sitting next to you eats sour grapes, you might feel like you can taste that same sourness in your own mouth. But if a father rebels against God’s Word and sins, it has nothing to do with the son. If the father has to die, the son cannot be a substitute for him. If a man sins, he himself should be cut off from God’s promised land. This passage is absolutely on the death of the physical body. This is what the end of verse 2 tells us. Then, after these words, from verse 3, chapter eighteen repeats that those who sin shall die. This is not spiritual death. Rather, it is what Adam experienced, the death of the body. If a man sins, his days on earth shall be shortened by God. From verse 3, this chapter repeatedly tells us who can live on earth through the blessing of Jehovah. This is the context of the words preceding verse 24. If a righteous man who was righteous has now turned evil, he will die. All his former righteousnesses shall not be remembered. This has absolutely nothing to do with salvation. It is a matter of God’s government. It tells us why God would not let a man live on the earth. It explains why many people die early. It is a word concerning the judgment of sin for the Jews. It has nothing to do with us.
(Gospel of God, The (2 volume set), Chapter 17, by Watchman Nee)

Enoch Adejare Adeboye

The life of Enoch Adejare Adeboye is a fulfillment of the scriptures in Zechariah 4: 10 which declare, “despise not the days of small beginnings”. Born in 1942 into a humble family in the village of Ifewara, Osun State located in the South-western part of Nigeria Enoch Adeboye often humorously states that his family was so poor that even the poor people called them poor. As a matter of fact, he unashamedly tells his congregation that he never owned shoes until he was eighteen years of age. What he possessed though were physical intangibles such as focus, consistency, diligence, ambition, a brilliant mind and a determination to succeed in life. In 1956 Enoch Adeboye was admitted into Ilesha Grammar School, Ilesha, Osun State, Western Nigeria and as a youth he discovered a passion for books, and an aptitude for science and in particular the field of Mathematics. This led to an academic journey in the field of Mathematics against incredible odds including but not limited to finances, the Nigerian Civil War and academic politics. By the time he was done, Enoch Adeboye had obtained not only a Bachelors (BSc.) degree in Mathematics from the University of Nigeria, Nnsukka, Nigeria in 1967, but also a Masters (MSc.) Degree in Hydrodynamics and a Doctorate Degree (PhD) in Applied Mathematics, both from the University of Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria in 1969 and 1975 respectively. One of the motivations for these academic achievements was Enoch Adeboye’s passionate desire to become the youngest Vice Chancellor (University President) of any one of the frontline Universities in Nigeria. It did seem that his academic ambition would be realized as his academic career flourished. However, this was not to be as a greater career awaited him in the service of the Lord. In 1967 Enoch Adeboye got married to his beloved wife Foluke Adenike Adeboye (nee Adeyokunnu).

Tenets of Faith

We Believe in...

1. THE SCRPITURES
The Bible is the inspired word of God, The product of holy men of old who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. The New Covenant, as recorded in the New Testament, we accept that our infallible guide in matters pertaining to conduct doctrine. (2 Tim 3:16; 1 Thess 2:13; 2 Pt 1:21).
2. THE GODHEAD
Our God is one but manifested in three persons – the Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit, being co-equal. (Phil 2:6) God the Father is greater than all; the sender of the word (Logos) and the begetter. (John 14:28; John 1:14)
The Son is the Word flesh covered, the One Begotten  and has existed with the Father from the beginning. (John 1:14; John 1:18; John 1:1)
The Holy Spirit proceeds forth from both the Father and the Son and is eternal. (John 15:26).
3. MAN, HIS FALL & REDEMPTION
Man is a created being made in the likness and image of God, but through Adam’s transgression and fall, sin came into the world” …. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory….” “ As it is written , There is none righteous, no not one.” Jesus Christ the son of God, was manifest to undo the work of the devil and gave life and shed Hid blood to redeem and restore man back to God. (Rom 5:12; Rom 3:23; Rom 3:10; 1 John 3:8).
Salvation is the gift of God to man, spate from the works and the law, and is made operative by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, producing works acceptable to God. (Eph 2:8).
 
4. ETERNAL LIFE THE NEW BIRTH
Man’s first step forward salvation is godly sorrow that worketh repentance. The New birth is necessary to all men, and when experienced produces eternal life (2 Cor 7:10; John 3:3-5; 1 John 5:12).
 
5. WATER BAPTISM
Baptism in water, by Immersion, is a direct commandment of our Lord, and is for believes only. The Ordinance is a symbol of the Christian’s identification with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection. (Matt 28:19; Rom 6:4; Col 2:21; Acts 8:36-39).
  The Following recommendation regarding the water baptismal formula is adopted; to wit: “On the confession of your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God and by the authority I baptize you in the name of the Father, and the son and the Holy Ghost Amen.”
6. BAPTISM OF THE HOLY GHOST
The baptism of the Holy Ghost and fire is gift from God as promised by the Lord Jesus Christ to all believers in this dispensation and is received subsequent to the New Birth. This experience is accompanied by the initial evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Holy Spirit Himself gives utterance. (Matt 3:11; John 14:16,17; Acts 1:8; Acts 2:38,39; Acts 19:1-7; Acts 2:4).
7. SANCIFICATION
The Bible teaches that without holiness no man can see the Lord. We believe in the Doctrine of Sanctification as a definite yet progressive work of grace, commencing at the time of regeneration and continuing until the consummation of salvation at Christ’s return. (Heb 12:14; 1 Thess 5:23; 2 Pt 3:18; 2 Cor 3:18; Phil 3:12-14; 1 Cor 1:30).
8. SIGNS AND WONDERS
Through application of the New Testament Mysteries such as: The Laying on of hands to impart gifts (2 Tim 1:6; Deut 34:9); Holy communion a celebration of Jesus’ victory over the devil (1 Cor 11:23-26); Anointing with oil for healings and supernatural interventions (Mk 6:13; Exo 30:25-31, James 5:14); Feet washing to confirm dominion and covenant heritage of the saints (John 13:3-10); Anointed Clothing Materials for special miracles (Acts 19:11-12); The Blood Covenant for the release of the captives (1 Cor 5:7); Exo 12:1-25); a prophetic Utterances for Supernatural encounters (Isa 44:26; Mk 11:23).
  
9. DIVINE HEALING
Healing is for the physical ills of the human body and is wrought by the power of God through the prayer  of faith, and by the laying on of hands. It is provided for in the atonement of Christ, and is the privileged of every member of the church today. (James 5:14,15; Mk 16:18; Isa 53:4,5; Matt 8:17; 1 Pt 2:24).
 
10.  RESURRECTION OF THE JUST & THE RETURN OF THE LORD
The angels said to Jesus’ disciples, “…this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.” His coming is immenet. When He comes, “…the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain  shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air…” (Acts 1:11; 1 Thess 4:16,17)Â
Following the tribulation, He shall return to earth as King of Kings, and Lord of lords, and together with His saints, who shall be kings and priests. He shall reign a Thousand years. (Rev 20:6).
 
11.  HELL & ETERNAL RETRIBUTION
The one who physically dies in his sins without accepting Christ is hopelessly and eternally lost in the Lake of Fire and therefore has no further opportunity of hearing the Gospel or repenting. The Lake of Fire is Literal. The terms “eternal” and “everlasting” used in describing the  duration of the punishment of the damned in the Lake of Fire, carry the same thought and meaning of endless existence as used in denoting the duration of joy and ecstacy of saints in the Presence of God. (Heb 9:27; Rev 19:20).
