From The Pastor’s desk 

Beloved,

I bring you greetings of The Realms of God’s Favour, in the Name of Jesus Christ.
I trust God that your faith is alive and growing now. The importance of faith cannot be overemphasized. You can only please God by faith, and FAITH IS THE CURRENCY WITH WHICH YOU TAKE DELIVERY OF YOUR VICTORY. Therefore, faith must be kept alive in your life at all times. Please take note; the building and development of your faith is your personal responsibility. The Bible is the factory where faith is developed. Your faith will conquer every battle before you, in the Name of Jesus.

What is the Holy Spirit saying to us in this month of May?
May is such a beautiful month. The flowers are out and in bloom. Heaven is always like that.
The greatest asset of the believer is the Presence of God. Whenever you secure His Presence, your victory over the challenge or whatever you are faced with is a concluded matter. Moses defeated Pharaoh and delivered the Israelites because God was with him. Exodus 3:11-12. Jesus also had a huge success on the same account. Acts 10:38 NKJV How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.
Problems, obstacles and challenges crumble at the Presence of God. When Israel went out of Egypt, no doubt the Presence of God was amongst them as documented by the Psalmist;
Psalm 114:3-7 NKJV
[3] The sea saw it and fled; Jordan turned back.
[4] The mountains skipped like rams, The little hills like lambs.[5] What ails you, O sea, that you fled? O Jordan, that you turned back?
[6] O mountains, that you skipped like rams? O little hills, like lambs?
[7] Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, At the presence of the God of Jacob.

Every hindrance gave way to the Children of Israel. Nothing could stop them as long as they had the Presence of the most high God.
One of the major accesses to His Presence is PRAISE. Praising God is a weapon of victory for the believer. Once in the Presence of God, things that are dead come alive. Therefore, securing the Presence of the Lord is of utmost importance to you and me. And from scriptures a Praise lifestyle will always grant you access to the Presence of the Almighty God. We see Paul the Apostle kept in prison unjustly and instead of complaining he decided to access God’s Presence.

Acts 16:25-26 NKJV
[25] But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.
[26] Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone’s chains were loosed.

The earth quakes because of the Presence of the Lord. Every bondage is destroyed by the Presence of the Lord of the whole earth. Now look at a mystery. Numbers 17:8 KJV And it came to pass, that on the morrow Moses went into the tabernacle of witness; and, behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi was budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds.
The Rod that God had chosen bloomed and blossomed in the Presence of God. A dead rod came alive, bloomed, brought forth fruits, and ripened over night. God is bringing speed your way this month as you access His Presence. The good news is you have been chosen by God to come into His Presence. 1 Peter 2:9 NKJV But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;
You have been called to sing praises to God as a lifestyle and with understanding!

Psalm 47:6-7 NKJV
[6] Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises!
[7] For God is the King of all the earth; Sing praises with understanding.

So, praising God with understanding is the key for getting into His Presence and once you are there every opposition must turn back.
Indeed, praise awaits God in Zion. Therefore, this month is declared as YOUR TIME TO BLOOM AND BLOSSOM and the anchor scripture is Numbers 17:8 and Psalm 47:7.
This month never like before in your entire life, as you dwell in His Presence, you will bloom and blossom, in the Name of Jesus.

Until Next Time, Remember, God Is On Your Side!

Yours in Christ,

Benson Oritsejolomisan
