From The Pastor’s desk
Beloved,
I bring you greetings of the Realms of God’s Favour, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
I believe that as a result of last month’s series of teaching on preparation, the stage is set for new things to begin springing up in your life. Just like Jotham became mighty because he prepared himself before His God, you are about to step into the God-ordained greatness for your life and destiny.
Now what is the Holy Spirit saying to us this month of November 2023? We live in a world that is bent towards evil continually. According to the Scriptures, things will keep getting worse by the day as we approach the return of Jesus Christ. But the good news is those who belong to Christ will have a different experience by the glory of God.
Malachi 4:1-2 NKJV
[1] For behold, the day is coming, Burning like an oven, And all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble. And the day which is coming shall burn them up,” Says the LORD of hosts, “That will leave them neither root nor branch. [2] But to you who fear My name The Sun of Righteousness shall arise With healing in His wings, And you shall go out And grow fat like stall-fed calves.
God has a pathway for the believer to walk in, this pathway will exempt him or her from the evil of this present world. Remember He created us in His image(Genesis 1:26). He created us to be like Him. To be like the Sample Son. As the Sample Son, Jesus demonstrated the glory of God and was sent as the seed of Abraham to redeem us and show us the way to radiate the Father’s glory.
What does the Father’s image look like?
Exodus 15:11 NKJV
Who is like You, O LORD, among the gods? Who is like You, glorious in holiness, Fearful in praises, doing wonders?
The word glory or glorious means amongst other things:
- Brightness or splendour.
- Great power and strength.
- Majesty and honour.
These three components are considered part of the meaning of the word glory. Take a look at the following scripture:
Exodus 19:4-6 NKJV
[4] You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself [5] Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine. [6] And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.
God has not changed. His preference is still holiness. We live in a time when sin is being redefined. Please be informed two cannot walk together except they agree. Amos 3:3. You cannot accommodate or tolerate sin and walk in glory. To ignore God’s directives on this issue is to sign up for a life of destruction, for sin is a destroyer.
To be a SPECIAL TREASURE to GOD above all people requires that you and I walk the way of HOLINESS. This is the pathway that exempts us from the woes that are currently facing the earth. Choosing the fear of the LORD as your lifestyle makes God your I AM in every situation of life.
It is obvious from scripture that the pathway to a glorious life is holiness.
Therefore, this November is declared our Month of His Glory and the anchor scriptures are Exodus 15:11 and 1 Peter 1:16.
As you deliberately choose the fear of the Lord(TO RESPECT AND HONOUR THE LORD), I decree in the Name of Jesus, whose I am and whom I serve, beginning from this day: God’s glory shall tabernacle over your life, family, and vocation, expect the next 365 days to be your best year yet, in the Name of Jesus Christ.
Expect Supernatural Intervention.
Until Next Time, Remember, God Is On Your Side!
Yours in Christ,
Benson Oritsejolomisan
