"These words I speak to you are not incidental additions to your life, homeowner improvements to your standard of living. They are foundational words, words to build a life on. If you work these words into your life, you are like a smart carpenter who built his house on solid rock. Rain poured down, the river flooded, a tornado hit—but nothing moved that house. It was fixed to the rock."

FOUNDATIONS.PART 1.

Now sit down,open your Bible as we start a series of message I title foundations. 

Text : 1 Corinthians 3:11.KJV

For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 

Foundations determine how you end in life.They determine the course of your life and your experience in life.Your home is a foundation.Your origin is a foundation,90% of troubles in life are traced to origin;the bloodline you came from.When I see the wickedness of many,I feel sorry for their offsprings.It is better never to have been born than to be born into certain homes. Unfortunately, the standard of GOD never change:if you sow it,your offsprings will reap it.A spiritual law.This is why you must endeavor to establish a good foundation for you and your offsprings.Mind what you say and do,for the sake of your offsprings.People call education,home training,etc,good foundations;true.But the best foundation anyone can have in life is the foundation of Salvation in JESUS CHRIST.This foundation serves the following purposes.

1. It delivers you from eternal damnation in hell.Read St. John 3:36.KJV. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

2. It delivers sonship to you.It makes you a child of GOD.Read St. John 1:12.KJV.But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 

3. It brings the presence of the HOLY SPIRIT into you.Read 1 Corinthians 6:15-17.KJV

Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. This takes place when you confess JESUS as LORD and invite HIM into your life. 

4.  You come under the instant covering of the blood of JESUS,offering you divine protection from many evil and wickedness.Read.Ephesians 2:13.KJV. But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

5.  You now stand the chance to escape from your diverse evil foundations if you follow through on your Salvation through JESUS CHRIST.As we continue this series each Sunday,we shall explore other steps you need to take.We shall look at about 8 or more foundations you must have in life for you to survive the wickedness in this world.Don't miss any Sunday. 

SUMMARY

We have touched on the first foundation,the bedrock of everything else.If you don't have that,you have nothing.How do you get this foundation in place ? 

Romans 10:9-11.KJV

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 

Go on your knees now,ask the blood of JESUS to cleanse you from your sins,confess JESUS as LORD and accept HIM as your LORD and Saviour. 

Congratulations if you just did that.Tell me about it.Go to my contact page and let me know.Do that now ! 

NEW CONVERTS ASSIGNMENT

As a new convert to CHRIST,I want you to take your time to study the entire Romans chapter 5 this week,as you study,turn all those scriptures to personal prayers;personalising them.As a new believer in CHRIST,you must begin to feed on GOD'S word so you can grow.Do that.More assignments coming. 

FOUNDATIONS.PART 2.

Previously, we discussed the first foundation you must have in life,outside which you have nothing.Some of the reasons were outlined.Let us proceed. The second foundation you must have is a very good relationship with GOD.Yes, you must know GOD on a person to person basis.You ask,is that possible, yes.That is one of the reasons for our redemption through the blood of JESUS. Redemption is a sort of buying you back from the bondage of darkness,sin and hell.The price paid was the blood of JESUS.It proceeds beyond that.You see,in the old testament,not everybody had direct access to GOD,you all go through the priests and prophets. Redemption through the blood of JESUS CHRIST changed all that.For those not conversant with the old testament,let me summarise.They had a tabernacle,a replica of heaven.In the innermost part was the holy of holies,where the seat of GOD,called the mercy seat was placed.A sort of GOD'S presence.Many things must be received there:blood,sacrifices, offerings,bread and wine,etc,else,GOD'S mercy will not come on the people (when sacrifice goes up,GOD'S Mercy comes down). Only the chief priest had access to that place.All others wait outside. 

Hebrews 9:1,3-7.Living Bible Version.

[1](1-2) Now in that first agreement between God and his people there were rules for worship and there was a sacred tent down here on earth. Inside this place of worship there were two rooms. The first one contained the golden candlestick and a table with special loaves of holy bread upon it; this part was called the Holy Place. 

[3]Then there was a curtain, and behind the curtain was a room called the Holy of Holies. 

[4]In that room there were a golden incense-altar and the golden chest, called the ark of the covenant, completely covered on all sides with pure gold. Inside the ark were the tablets of stone with the Ten Commandments written on them, and a golden jar with some manna in it, and Aaron’s wooden cane that budded. 

[5]Above the golden chest were statues of angels called the cherubim—the guardians of God’s glory—with their wings stretched out over the ark’s golden cover, called the mercy seat. But enough of such details.

[6]Well, when all was ready, the priests went in and out of the first room whenever they wanted to, doing their work. 

[7]But only the high priest went into the inner room, and then only once a year, all alone, and always with blood that he sprinkled on the mercy seat as an offering to God to cover his own mistakes and sins and the mistakes and sins of all the people. 

To keep the people away,a veil was placed in between the inner room (the holy of holies) and the rest of the tabernacle.Meaning : NO DIRECT ACCESS TO GOD. The sacrifice of JESUS removed that veil.When you confess JESUS as LORD,you have direct access to GOD anywhere you are in the world,not in any temple or shrine,but in your heart. 

St. Matthew 27:50-51.KJV

Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; 

Hebrews 4:16.KJV

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. 

Therefore,according to John 1:12-13, when you confess JESUS as LORD (get born-again),your status change to become a child of GOD and you are expected to relate with GOD as such.See what JESUS said to us after HE finished the work and resurrected. 

St. John 20:17.KJV

Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. 

You get the shift.GOD is now your father and your GOD.This is why born-again persons are called Sons and daughters of GOD,not in the natural sense,but by spiritual adoption and oneness with CHRIST.These are the things you must do as a child of GOD.

• You must fellowship with HIM daily. Speak with HIM as you will speak with HIM as a father.Discuss all issues with HIM and always ask for HIS direction.As you do this,you will be surprised that HE will begin to speak to you in your spirit and also in visions and dreams.In fact,the more you spend time with HIM,the better for you.I was doing personal all night and all day prayers right from my high school days in the 80s.GOD is not just a giver of gifts and miracles, but a father who wants relationship with HIS children.If you don't see GOD as a father and treat HIM as such,you might not stay faithful to HIM through thick and thin.

• Love GOD above all others.Let this show in your day to day decisions and deeds. 

1 John 4:19.KJV

We love him, because he first loved us. 

What does this mean ? 

St. John 14:15.KJV

If ye love me, keep my commandments. 

Let's break it down. 

2 John 1:6. AMP 

[6]And what this love consists in is this: that we live and walk in accordance with and guided by His commandments (His orders, ordinances, precepts, teaching). This is the commandment, as you have heard from the beginning, that you continue to walk in love [guided by it and following it]. 

This demands you obey HIM always and depart from everything GOD does not like: sin,bad company,wayward life,etc. Take that step immediately after the benediction. 

We shall continue this part 2. 

PRAY THESE PRAYERS

Thank GOD for the message.Ask GOD to strengthen your foundation with true love for HIM. Ask HIM to give you grace to stay long in HIS presence.Pray that GOD will remove all things not pleasing to HIM from your life.Ask GOD to meet you on a one to one basis.Commit the rest of your week into GOD'S hands.Pray for me to. 

ASSIGNMENT FOR THIS WEEK. 

Proceed to Romans chapter 6.Study the chapter and personalise it in prayers. 

FOUNDATIONS, PART 2. CONTINUED.

We stopped at the scriptures below. 

2 John 1:6. AMP 

[6]And what this love consists in is this: that we live and walk in accordance with and guided by His commandments (His orders, ordinances, precepts, teaching). This is the commandment, as you have heard from the beginning, that you continue to walk in love [guided by it and following it]. 

Let me focus on the walking in love aspect. This love has two dimensions, love for GOD and love for those we see around us. A true child of GOD is different in his or her way of life. You must be different. You now have a new nature in CHRIST and your talk,walk and living must be a life of love. This is why true born-again persons give, are kind, we are not selfish, we are not vulgar in words (we don't use the "f" and other sexual immoral terms), we forgive, we are warm and nice to people, we share freely, we don't walk in envy, we make peace wherever we are, we don't fornicate, we don’t go after other people's spouse and properties, we don't take alcohol, we don’t steal, we don't backstab, we don’t use cunning craftiness, we don't use charms or evil powers, we don't do any of the bad things we see around. Why ? We are new creatures in CHRIST JESUS. Stop here and shout this scriptures below seven times, 

"I am a new creature in CHRIST JESUS, old things have passed away and all things have become new."

Personalised from 2 Cor 5:17.KJV. 

Hallelujah ! Never forget you are a new person in CHRIST and must live differently. You need to read this. 

2 Peter 1:5-11.MSG [Message Bible]

So don't lose a minute in building on what you've been given, complementing your basic faith with good character, spiritual understanding, alert discipline, passionate patience, reverent wonder, warm friendliness, and generous love, each dimension fitting into and developing the others. With these qualities active and growing in your lives, no grass will grow under your feet, no day will pass without its reward as you mature in your experience of our Master Jesus. Without these qualities you can't see what's right before you, oblivious that your old sinful life has been wiped off the books. So, friends, confirm God's invitation to you, his choice of you. Don't put it off; do it now. Do this, and you'll have your life on a firm footing, the streets paved and the way wide open into the eternal kingdom of our Master and Savior, Jesus Christ. 

That is the beauty of the Christ-like life (Christianity, going to Church does not make you a Christian but confessing JESUS as LORD and living like HIM). The nature of CHRIST in you will help you produce all those fruits, with your willing cooperation of course; these are important for you to eventually get to heaven. They are also important fruits if you are to survive in spiritual warfare. They must not be taken for granted. This is why we pause here and go into real prayers. Stand up now and fervently pray the following prayer points as if your whole life depend on it. Pray each point thoroughly. 

1. LORD, according as it is written in 

St. Matthew 15:13. KJV

But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up. 

Divine surgery, uproot in me, every bad hereditary trait, character, programming, mindset, evil and wicked template, way of life, actions, instinct, dormant or active traits, genes and everything not consistent with the new life and nature I have received in CHRIST JESUS. I, willingly from my heart, reject them all in JESUS NAME. 

2. This is my nature as a new creature in CHRIST JESUS, as it is written in 

Ephesians 4:24. KJV

And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. 

Therefore, I have the nature of righteousness and true holiness. I reject all root of selfishness, greed, wickedness, beastiality, weakness for sex, money and showy or flashy things. Everything not consistent with righteousness and true holiness must never manifest in me again. I, with my mouth, reject them all. Divine fire, purge me of them all. I call forth the full manifestation of righteousness and true holiness in me and to run my life for the rest of my days on earth in JESUS NAME. 

3. Now, hold your head with your two hands and declare 

1 Corinthians 2:16. KJV

For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. 

I manifest the mindset of CHRIST. I confess that my mind is fully open to the new ways and life of CHRIST. My head, my cerebral cortex, everything in my central nervous system and reasoning and acting centre; comply in JESUS NAME. 

4. HOLY SPIRIT and hosts of heaven, you have my full permission to begin to work on me to turn me to exactly what GOD wants me to be in reasoning and in all areas of my life. 

5. As it is written in 

1 Corinthians 6:19-20. KJV

What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. 

Therefore, nothing, apart from the HOLY SPIRIT, have the right to live and remain in and on me. Therefore, all evil presence, living and non living, everything, not of GOD, in and on my body, perish by fire in JESUS NAME. Every programming apart from the leading of the HOLY SPIRIT, running my life, be consumed by fire in JESUS NAME. As from henceforth, my body will only glorify GOD. 

6. Ask GOD to open your eyes to any sacrifice you need to make for HIM and give you the grace to obey. 

Having prayed all those prayers, proceed to the next session.

ASSIGNMENT

Proceed to Romans chapter 8 this week. 

FOUNDATIONS. PART 3.

Take your time to explore this website for other good stuffs. In this message, we shall be touching on two subjects. 

A. Waiting upon the LORD. 

Isaiah 40:31. Living Bible Version

[31]But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint. 

This talks about your personal fellowship with GOD. In the Church, we often use the term "wait on the LORD", we got it from the Bible. It describes the experience of constant and daily fellowship with GOD, with or without fasting. "Waiting on the LORD" in scriptural context, is not only when you are separating yourself to GOD in fasting and prayers, every true child of GOD must have a regular daily personal devotion of studying the Bible, praises and prayers and discussing with GOD. That is "Waiting on the LORD". It is best done in the mornings before you leave the house. This way, you can cancel all the evil plans wicked ones have made against you in the night. It is a big risk to step out of your house each day without prayers. This error have killed many. Some had bad dreams and took it for granted. They stepped out without praying and what they saw befell them. Don't wait for bad dreams before you pray every morning, you might not see everything. Dream or not, always fellowship with GOD each morning before you leave your house. A scriptures I advice you to use regularly in prayers is this. 

Proverbs 3:5-6. KJV.

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 

Quote that to GOD regularly and always ask HIM  to direct your path in all issues. These evil spirits are everywhere, they know how to set traps. Just hearing your discussion with people (they might be passing by) and they go use it to set traps or quarrels for you . For new believers in CHRIST, you must own your own Bible and study it yourself. Too many deception in this world. This is why, as a new convert to CHRIST, you must perform the study and prayer assignment for this week. Details below. 

Furthermore, also wait on GOD before you sleep. Evil forces also plan evil during the day. Many who roam our streets are going nowhere; just out to see who to kill and destroy. They keep firing arrows even while on motion or busy working. They eavesdrop on conversations to destroy. Don't talk anyhow and mind who you confide in. Above all, waiting on GOD is for your own good, it strengthens you spiritually. It is power. Your daily tonic for durability. Someone said, "but I don't know where to read in the Bible ? ", start with the Bible assignments I give here and also go through all the scriptures I share in the messages. As you grow, the HOLY SPIRT will begin to give you scriptures to study. 

B. KILL SELFISHNESS IN YOU. 

Philippians 2:3-5. Living Bible Version

[3]Don’t be selfish; don’t live to make a good impression on others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourself. 

[4]Don’t just think about your own affairs, but be interested in others, too, and in what they are doing.

[5]Your attitude should be the kind that was shown us by Jesus Christ, 

We prayed against this and there are very good reasons why you must not be selfish. 

1. A selfish person cannot keep good friends for long, once they discover his or her selfishness, they will move away. Selfishness kills good relationships and marriages. 

2. A selfish person will never prosper. You must be a generous person to activate divine mercy for prosperity. 

Proverbs 11:25. GNT

Be generous, and you will be prosperous. Help others, and you will be helped. 

Until you get rid of your selfish nature, true prosperity will elude you. Hard work does not always translate to prosperity, it is all by GOD'S mercy. 

3. A selfish person cannot send sacrifices up to GOD that will lift inherited curses from their lives and activate intervention for them. The sacrifices you send up to GOD in terms of tithes, offerings, sacrificial giving, services unto GOD, sweat and tears for GOD, etc, are the raw materials Angels work with to rearrange your life for good. 

Hebrews 13:16. AMP

Do not forget or neglect to do kindness and good, to be generous and distribute and contribute to the needy [of the church as embodiment and proof of fellowship], for such sacrifices are pleasing to God. 

Being kind, good, generous, distributing, contributing, etc, are called sacrifices unto GOD. It is for your own good. They deliver you from many seen and unseen afflictions, death and diverse destruction. If you lack these, you are finished. Doing these things are for your own good. Check out selfish people and see how they end. Just the right gift to the right place can activate divine mercy that can save you from untimely death and even terrible diseases. Scroll up for The Second Sacrifice video.

4. Selfishness will block you in life and close doors against you. 

5. Selfishness will make you unfaithful. Some of you don't know you are selfish. Here are some signs to show you are selfish 

SIGNS OF SELFISHNESS 

1. People's needs will not touch your feelings. You will not feel the desire to meet anybody's needs. The natural thing is for you to feel so disturbed by People's lack that you give naturally. A person is hungry and you say "no big deal". 

2. Anything that comes into your hands is only for you, sharing does not occur to you.

3. You never pay tithes or think of offerings to GOD. 

4. You only give when you are sure you will get more in return, anything short of that and you don't give.

5. Your major interest in relationship with people is only for what you can get, not what you can give. Once they don't have, you are gone.

6. You feel hurt or disturbed whenever you hear or see giving. You see it as exploitation and hate it.

7. People give you and you never give back in return.

8. You will do anything to get what rightfully belong to others.

9. You never give people their just share of the help rendered to you. They helped you win a contract and you keep most of the reward to yourself. You win 10million dollars, you give 10dollars.

10. You use and dump people. You will be nice to them to get what they have, once you are done, you turn against them.

11. You don't care how many you hurt just to have your way. It is nothing to you.

12. You avoid those in need who may need your help. 

These examples will suffice. These attitude can be hereditary or cultivated. You must fight it in prayers for your own good. Refer to last Sunday's prayer points to escape this destruction in your blood. You must also do this. Go to

https://t.me/apostleokeglorypage  and copy all the pages, if still available. Ensure you study them all for your own good. 

PRAYERS

Pray thus : A. Every root of selfishness in me, be uprooted in JESUS NAME. B. Cover the rest of your week in fire, commit all your ways into GOD'S hands, ask GOD to help you keep your daily devotion. C. Pray fervently, 

"LORD, gather the people in different parts of the world into World Prayer and Power Centers, where we can always come together to seek your face and receive from you, establish it by your mercy in JESUS NAME". 

ASSIGNMENT

Study the entire 1 Corinthians chapter 2 this week. Hold your Bible and personalise the portions that can be personalised in prayers unto GOD. Example : "Now i have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that i might know the things that are freely given to me of God". 

Personalised from 1 Corinthians 2:12. KJV 

FOUNDATIONS. PART 4. 

THE POWER OF YOUR WILL.

In this series, we have learnt many things thus far; all are equally important. The cement to help activate all we have learnt is your Will. You must be willing to do them. This is where many fail. Many have heard and read many life saving truths that did not deliver them, though delivered others, simply because their Wills did not align with the things they learnt. THEY NEVER PRACTICED THEM. 

THE POWER OF THE WORD YOU HEAR IS ALSO ACTIVATED WHEN YOU DO THEM. 

Beloved, I have seen many that started in the race of our faith in JESUS crash along the way, though they all heard the same messages that kept others safe, simply because they ignored many things. One thing that has helped me this far in life is that I don't joke with any truth of GOD'S Word I hear that is for my good. Any good prayer point in line with scriptures, I pray it, no matter who raised it. Any instruction from GOD to give and I give. Any good material with good content, I read and obey all instructions given. One thing I have noticed in many who crashed is that they ignored divine instructions that could have saved them. How can you read something in the Bible and not practice it. How can GOD speak to you and you disobey. You are committing spiritual suicide. I have forwarded messages that could have saved many from crashing, as led by the HOLY SPIRIT, to them, they read them or ignored them and still proceeded into destruction. At times I marvel. Don't you know that GOD led you to this site for your own good, obey all instructions for your own good. As an high school student in the 80s, I took parts of my used school notebooks and removed the unused portions, I sewed them together with needle and thread to form a jotter. This was how I produced many jotters where I recorded the things I read in the Bible. I had many of them. Anything I read that I must obey, I write down and do it. I took nothing for granted. Any bad thing I see GOD does not like, I go into prayers to purge them from my life. The interesting part is that neither my parents nor siblings knew what I was doing. Some of you young ones are still waiting for mummy to tell you to fast and pray, I pity you. Even mummy need your prayers too. No matter what is wrong with you, if you can sit down with GOD in prayers and address it, you will be free if you do what HE says. 

One major foundation you must have if you will survive this world and end well is to ensure your Will does not fight against GOD'S Will. You must have that rock solid both in your conscious and subconscious as a life and faith foundation; without that, your destruction is only a matter of time. You don't say "NO" to GOD and last. 

Psalms 119:1. Message Bible.

You're blessed when you stay on course, walking steadily on the road revealed by God. You're blessed when you follow his directions, doing your best to find him. That's right—you don't go off on your own; you walk straight along the road he set. You, God, prescribed the right way to live;

now you expect us to live it. Oh, that my steps might be steady, keeping to the course you set; Then I'd never have any regrets in comparing my life with your counsel. I thank you for speaking straight from your heart;

I learn the pattern of your righteous ways. I'm going to do what you tell me to do; don't ever walk off and leave me. 

The above is the key, one of the things evil forces that want to destroy you hate most; obedience to GOD and walking in HIS ways. I have discovered that the problem of many is bringing their Will to align with GOD'S Will. They heard it but just can't go along with it. This is how many are destroyed. Let me show you some benefits of aligning your Will with GOD. 

• Your Will is a spiritual law that heaven respects. GOD does not force anyone, HE shows you the way and allows you make your choice. Those forces who make people violate their Will through various strategies: programming, putting evil spirits in them to run them, cloning them, charms and spells, etc, come under heavy judgements of GOD. 

• If you do not willingly cooperate with GOD, heaven cannot help you.

• All the instructions GOD gives are meant for your good, though you might not understand, you must be willing to do them or else they can't work for you. 

• The law of the Will have the power to overrule many destructions from your life. Let me explain. 

There are many things at work in you and against you that are not your doing, this is why, no matter how deeply evil your foundation is, GOD will always extend HIS Mercy to you and give you the chance to escape. This is a reason you are reading this and also me asking for your financial support and prayers; divine mercy is giving you the chance to escape many destruction. You inherited many bad character and curses. You were born, probably, into a wicked family. All are born into a wicked world. All these you have no control over. The winning card is this; 

If you decide you want to be good and be free from all these things in you and around you, you willingly accept whatever demand GOD place on you and are willing to follow and obey GOD to the letter; trust me, the whole of heaven will be moved to set you free even from what you have no control over, and in a matter of time (might take a while), your life and story will change. 

Let Satan and his hosts prove any legal ground against you, once your Will decides to reject all that is not good, they will be overruled and heaven will move to set you free. Heaven's help is only available to those who are willing. Beloved, as I round up today's message, let me make it clear that unless heaven help you, there are many things you will never be free from. Why ? You have no control over them. Your determination is powerless against them. Only GOD can remove that which is in your blood. This is why you must stand up now and pray the following prayers as if you will never pray again, your whole life and eternity depends on it. 

PRAYERS 

FIRST PART.

Open your Bible declare this scriptures 7 times and mean it. 

Psalms 40:8. KJV

I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart. 

Pray the following. 1. I (add your name) hereby renounce all inherited bad character, programmings, templates, mindset, nature, trait, reasoning, way of life, curses and evil upbringing, they are not my Will. I willingly invite JESUS to uproot them all from me and turn me to exactly what HE wants. This is my Will in JESUS NAME. 2. I willingly reject all other plans and purposes contrary to the life and destiny GOD has given me, I embrace only that which is of GOD, that is my Will. Therefore, everything else contrary to the Will of GOD in my life, die in JESUS NAME. 3. I hereby reject all evil and wicked associations and relationships meant to destroy me, they are not my Will. My Will are the associations and relationships JESUS wants for me. 4. My Will is to go to heaven and not hell, LORD, make it so in JESUS NAME. 5. My Will is for JESUS to order my steps the way HE wants and not evil forces, LORD, make it so. 6. My Will is to obey all divine instructions from GOD, LORD, give me the grace. 7. My Will is to be generous and loving, not selfish or wicked. JESUS, make it so. 8. My Will is to be on fire for GOD all the days of my life; HOLY GHOST FIRE engulf me. 9. My Will is to joyfully and gladly make sacrifices for GOD and not run from sacrifices unto GOD; JESUS help me. 

SECOND PART.

This second part is prayers for me and all those whose money and things made these possible. You see, when we sacrifice our time, money, sweat, etc, to minister to you to bless and deliver you, when you appreciate us and speak good things in prayers for us; they are blessings with legal foundation, those prayers will stand. Therefore, declare like this, 

"As Apostle Oke and others that funded this work have used what they have to minister to me, I hereby declare the following blessings on them in JESUS NAME..."  

Now go ahead and proclaim all the blessings you wish on me and all those who helped to make this work possible. 

ASSIGNMENT

Proceed to Romans chapter 12 for this week. 

FOUNDATIONS. PART 5

THE TEST OF YOUR WILL.

Keep the record of these messages and refer to them constantly. They are life saving. A major reason many actually get born-again but their faith don't last is because they missed necessary foundation. Getting born-again is just birth, growth must follow. The first step is a good foundation. If you follow these teachings (also good for those who got saved long ago) and obey, your faith stands a good chance of surviving the tests and trials of this life. Never forget these, many you live and move with, many you see around, want you in hell so bad that they will offer you anything to get your soul. Your journey to heaven will be constantly challenged. They are in Church too to capture true believers and true ministers of the Gospel. Your solid  foundation in CHRIST will help you escape them. Of course, they are also monitoring what we do here. They hate the messages here, especially The Power of Your Will of last Sunday. They have a card they usually play against those who stand for GOD; they set tests for them to prove to GOD that they don’t love GOD. That Will will be tested. Once you fail that test, they use it to prove cases against you before heaven. This they can use to rob you of many blessings or even heaven itself. 

Have you been experiencing some strange temptations and persecutions of recent ? They are behind it all. Their tests. Ensure you pass those tests no matter the cost. They have tried me too on many occasions, just as they have done for many other true servants of GOD. Satan go as far as telling GOD you don't love HIM and proceed to prove it. They bring money, sex, pressure, divers temptations just to prove their point to GOD and crash your faith. Don't fall for it. If you have made mistakes already, go on your face and repent before GOD, get your fire back. GOD will receive you. 

Psalms 105:19. KJV

Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him. 

That is a reference to Joseph. The love Joseph professed for GOD was tested by evil forces that engineered everything he went through. He stayed faithful to GOD throughout. His master handed his entire business over to him, yet he never stole a dime. No fraud, no lie, no cutting corners but steadfast and true. His "yes" was a "yes" and his "no" was a "no", as it should be for every true child of GOD. 

St. Matthew 5:16. KJV

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. 

St. Matthew 5:37. KJV

But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil. 

Joseph, rather than to sin against GOD through sexual immorality (would have destroyed him anyway), went to jail in faithfulness to GOD. We know the rest of the story, GOD blessed him beyond imagination. 

• Best to lose that relationship than to sin against GOD.

• Best to lose that job than to sin against GOD.

• Best to be disowned than to sin against GOD.

• Best to run than to fall.

• Best to be contented and manage the little you have than to sin against GOD. 

Let's spell out what it means to follow CHRIST. 

Mark 8:34. AMP

And Jesus called [to Him] the throng with His disciples and said to them, If anyone intends to come after Me, let him deny himself [forget, ignore, disown, and lose sight of himself and his own interests] and take up his cross, and [joining Me as a disciple and siding with My party] follow with Me [continually, cleaving steadfastly to Me]. 

GOD must be first, all others come after. You must be willing to deny yourself for the sake of GOD and the Gospel. Today, we all refer to Daniel, Abraham, etc, as great examples of faith. They passed the tests. One example. 

Daniel 1:8. KJV

But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. 

Do you know what kind of food and wine they consume in the king's Palace ? The best of the best. The problem is that some were dedicated to idols, while others were part of things GOD forbade HIS people in the old testament not to eat, if they touch or eat them, they will be defiled before GOD. Things sacrificed to GOD too were the exclusive privilege of the GOD chosen Priest's use and enjoyment, those not in the Priesthood have no right to it. Same rule still applies in the new testament. They belong to GOD for the service of GOD'S House and the use of GOD'S chosen ministers, to violate this is to trespass. 

Leviticus 7:21. KJV

Moreover the soul that shall touch any unclean thing, as the uncleanness of man, or any unclean beast, or any abominable unclean thing, and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which pertain unto the LORD, even that soul shall be cut off from his people. 

In spite of the fact that Daniel was a captive of war and had no rights in the land, he still refused to disobey GOD. Take note, he and his colleagues were privileged for special treatment. They were not treated as slaves, but chosen and elevated to wine and dine with the king. They were placed in a different and high class. Some people today will lose their head at that and forget GOD. How many of you have thrown your obedience to GOD away because of one rich man, woman or one favour from the high places. Learn from Daniel. Read his story, GOD blessed him beyond imagination. He passed all the tests Satan set for him. 

Luke 6:22-23. AMP

[22]Blessed (happy–with life-joy and satisfaction in God's favor and salvation, apart from your outward condition–and to be envied) are you when people despise (hate) you, and when they exclude and excommunicate you [as disreputable] and revile and denounce you and defame and cast out and spurn your name as evil (wicked) on account of the Son of Man.

[23]Rejoice and be glad at such a time and exult and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is rich and great and strong and intense and abundant in heaven; for even so their forefathers treated the prophets. 

There are things you must endure as part of your faith in CHRIST, let this sink deep into your consciousness. If you can't bear the above for CHRIST, your faith won't last, why ? You are in the midst of many who hate your faith in CHRIST. Mind you, there is great reward at the end. 

The evidence of your love for GOD is in your obedience to HIM through thick and thin. Satan will test it. 

I have endured hatred for CHRIST. I have been called names, lied against, insulted, ridiculed, rejected, deprived of things, etc, all because of my faith in CHRIST. I have suffered gang ups, charms, evil ammunition and even physical attacks deployed against me;  spiritual attacks both day and night, hunger, loss of friendship, loss of courtship (still single till now), etc, all because of my faith in CHRIST. Some people have refused to help or respond to me simply because of my faith in CHRIST, even fellow believers ran from me. Good things meant for me were sabotaged, few born-again sisters GOD spoke to rejected me because of what I suffered for CHRIST and many more...yet I am still standing for JESUS. Go and do likewise. Be a real child of GOD, pass the tests. 

Those on the way to heaven will meet real war on the way, if they catch you, they will return you to the path of hell you already escaped. Their original intention. Forget the glitter, Stand ! 

Proceed to John chapter 14 this week. 

PRAYERS

1. Repent of all areas where you have compromised your faith or disobeyed GOD. Ask GOD to forgive you. Go and make amend if need be. 

2. Ask HIM for grace to obey all GOD'S instructions and remain faithful till the end.

3. Tell GOD to uproot from your life everything that will not help you to stay faithful to HIM. 

4. Open your Bible to Psalms 9:15-16 and quote it. Decree that all moves of anyone against your faith and stand for CHRIST should instantly backfire against them in JESUS NAME. 

5. Hand your week over to GOD and ask HIM to direct your path. Command to die, every evil waiting for you throughout this week.

PART 6.

HOLINESS.

This message is too important to be short. Go through all. There is an introductory video to this message. Watch it above or click holiness to access, download, watch and keep before proceeding. Stop here and do that before proceeding. Having done that, let's read our text scriptures. This applies only to those who have been raised to life with CHRIST, the born-again ones. I have deliberately used a very simple version so that it can be very clear in meaning. 

Colossians 3:1-17. GNT

You have been raised to life with Christ, so set your hearts on the things that are in heaven, where Christ sits on his throne at the right side of God. Keep your minds fixed on things there, not on things here on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. Your real life is Christ and when he appears, then you too will appear with him and share his glory! The Old Life and the New. You must put to death, then, the earthly desires at work in you, such as sexual immorality, indecency, lust, evil passions, and greed (for greed is a form of idolatry). Because of such things God's anger will come upon those who do not obey him. At one time you yourselves used to live according to such desires, when your life was dominated by them. But now you must get rid of all these things: anger, passion, and hateful feelings. No insults or obscene talk must ever come from your lips. Do not lie to one another, for you have put off the old self with its habits and have put on the new self. This is the new being which God, its Creator, is constantly renewing in his own image, in order to bring you to a full knowledge of himself. As a result, there is no longer any distinction between Gentiles and Jews, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarians, savages, slaves, and free, but Christ is all, Christ is in all. You are the people of God; he loved you and chose you for his own. So then, you must clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Be tolerant with one another and forgive one another whenever any of you has a complaint against someone else. You must forgive one another just as the Lord has forgiven you. And to all these qualities add love, which binds all things together in perfect unity. The peace that Christ gives is to guide you in the decisions you make; for it is to this peace that God has called you together in the one body. And be thankful. Christ's message in all its richness must live in your hearts. Teach and instruct one another with all wisdom. Sing psalms, hymns, and sacred songs; sing to God with thanksgiving in your hearts. Everything you do or say, then, should be done in the name of the Lord Jesus, as you give thanks through him to God the Father. 

KEY POINTS FROM THE SCRIPTURES.

1. A spiritual transformation took place when you confessed JESUS as your LORD and Saviour. LORD means HE has the final say over all issues concerning your life. As JESUS died and rose again, by accepting that sacrifice, the same takes place in you; a new you is born. You are born-again, or reborn if you please. 

2. You must now become heaven minded because you are now a citizen of heaven. Everything on earth takes second place to that : money, marriage, friends, associates, family, etc, must not take that place in your life. Whatsoever you do must align with your heaven consciousness or you let it go. This mindset will help you make wise decisions and not easily blackside over mundane things. You must make up your mind not to miss heaven because of anyone or anything; a decision I took early in life that has made me stay the course in spite of all. You see, I have thus far been deprived of many things in life, yet I am not moved as long as my heaven is assured. I have rejected and denied myself of many things for the sake of my heaven. Why ? They were meant to lead me to hell. Don't allow any man, woman, trouble, tests and trials, wealth, opportunities, etc, take heaven from you. Always use the compliablity to heaven as a scale to measure the weight of any decision. If it will deprive you of heaven or lead you to hell, let it go, you don't need it. I trust GOD for wealth too and pray against the ones that will lead me to hell. Go and do likewise. Many don't think this way, anything or anyone that comes is accepted. They don't judge and reject whatever will not enhance their going to heaven, they accept all. That way of living will eventually rob them of heaven, even if they are anointed servants of GOD. Look at that man or woman's body and ask yourself, "is it worth missing heaven and going to hell for ? " Don't lose heaven in the course of pursuing the good things of life. Others might despise you (I experienced same too), it doesn't matter, keep smiling and keep going to heaven, even if it requires you live a simple life; so be it. 

3. From our previous foundation messages, you now understand you are now a new person in CHRIST and sin has no right over your life. Live in that consciousness. This must show in the way you talk, relate, act and do things. Stop here and go back to the scriptures above and pray like this. 

"By virtue of my new life in JESUS, I hereby declare far removed from me in my way of living all these things...." 

Now proceed to mention one by one all the sinful life and bad character listed in all the verses. Examples : sexual immorality, indecency, lust, lies, anger, passion, hateful feelings, obscene talk, etc. Having done that, pray again like this. 

"By virtue of my new life in JESUS, I hereby declare manifesting in me the following...." 

Now, also proceed to mention all the good things listed in the verses. Examples : compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, tolerance, etc. 

DO NOT PROCEED UNTIL YOU HAVE DONE THAT. 

WHY YOU MUST LIVE HOLY

1. Titus 2:11. MSG

God's readiness to give and forgive is now public. Salvation's available for everyone! We're being shown how to turn our backs on a godless, indulgent life, and how to take on a God-filled, God-honoring life. This new life is starting right now, and is whetting our appetites for the glorious day when our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, appears. He offered himself as a sacrifice to free us from a dark, rebellious life into this good, pure life, making us a people he can be proud of, energetic in goodness. 

That is a major reason for the whole plan of Salvation. To destroy Sin and the power of sin in your life, so you can live a good and pure life. The evidence you are truly born-again. CHRIST in you makes it your nature, you live it naturally. Those outside CHRIST can't do such, because the sinful nature is still at work in them. Once you receive JESUS as your LORD and Saviour, the law of the Spirit of life in CHRIST JESUS goes to work in you and frees you from the law of sin and death at work in all without CHRIST ; one reason many will hate you and your holiness and seek to destroy your purity. All of us should now proceed to make the following declaration 3 times. Do not proceed until you do this. Declare thus. 

Romans 8:2. KJV

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 

Let that be your daily and constant confession. It is power over sin. 

2. Without holiness, you cannot enter heaven after death. No holiness, no heaven for you. Reject all other teachings contrary to that in your own eternal interest. The scriptures below was written to believers in CHRIST, born-again persons. 

Ephesians 5:1-6. KJV

Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. 

From the scriptures above, all teachings contrary to that is deception. 

3. If you live in sin, even telling lies, evil forces will easily possess your body or destroy you. Holiness is a must for effective spiritual warfare. You don't live in sin and bind Satan, he will destroy you. Made mistakes, repent now and GOD will receive you. 

YOUR DRESSING.

Purity must show, even in your appearance and also for other good reasons. The purpose of clothes is to cover nakedness, evil forces specifically perverted that for seduction and destruction, thus a lot of tight fitting and nakedness revealing dresses you see around; never join that. Your appearance must never promote nudity or seduction. Immoral dresses is from the marine kingdom, don't copy it. When trousers for women came years back, it looked harmless, I really didn't see any big deal with it and I still don't. Judging from the way it is sewn and worn these days, I will strongly advise our sisters to return to your decent and body covering skirts, blouses and other woman's dignity protecting clothes. Read this ten times. You read news and hear too many incidents of rape, sexual assaults even unto death, even boys and minors are not spared and you still don't understand that this world has changed. You see people displaying genitals in broad daylight. The way some look at you, even when you are well covered, their eyes are literally tearing your clothes off. The slightest display of flesh and you attract loads of lust. That is the reality of this present world. Those things you consider harmless years back ; you wearing skimpy dresses in your compound and neighbourhood, shorts worn to relax, boys going about with bare chest, hanging inner wears in public, etc, are no more harmless. Such things can stir up serious attacks of lust against you. Never think everybody is like you. Such things don't move us, but for some, they will hold all night meetings against you, deploy all manner of attacks, curses, spirits of lust, etc, at you just to see the rest of your nakedness and ravish your body. Even your being covered up they hate, now you are showing flesh, you will find yourself in big trouble. Never ignore ministers of the Gospel who tell you to cover up, they know what they are saying. Go to your wardrobe now, burn those clothes (don't give them out) that are too tight or too revealing and get better ones. If only your family live in the compound, fine, but in a compound filled with others not family, cover up; they are not your family. Also keep all your phones, TV, electronic gadgets out of your bedroom, technology has advanced, they can become someone's eyes to see. Stop undressing or dress up before others, you don't know who is who anymore. Eyes can become spiritual cameras. GOD save us all. 

ENEMIES OF HOLINESS

• Inherited animal nature and instincts. Many who gave birth to you are not humans. Their nature passed into you at birth, this is not Adamic nature, but animal nature. This will give you animal weakness and instincts. As you grow older, it gets stronger. Animal sexual urge, territorial nature, wildness, desiring to view and easily affected by nudity, weakness for money, etc, will destroy you. Access previous parts in this foundation class page to escape this. You must ask GOD for surgery to free you from such.

• Evil gifts. This is one area most believers and men of GOD have been most careless. Gifts specially designed from the spirit realm to destroy. It gives evil spirits right of entry into you. You will become possessed without realising it. Those spirits will run you to hell. It can be anything small or big, not only money. You can't reject all gifts since you might not know which one is good or bad, therefore, the best thing is to pray that such will never reach you. Stop and pray thus. 

1. "In the name of JESUS, I willingly reject all gifts that will demonise or destroy me, JESUS, let them never reach me. All attempts to destroy me with such, backfire and continue to backfire in JESUS NAME." Quote Proverbs 26:27. 

2. "All such gifts that has ever been given to me without my suspecting, be revealed to me in JESUS NAME." Quote Luke 12:2. 

Also ensure you take time to diligently pray the following prayers.

1. All conspiracies of darkness against my holy living, die in JESUS NAME.

2. All weapons fashioned against my holy living, go back and destroy the enemy. 

3. I place a spiritual embargo between me and whoever or whatever will destroy my holiness.

4. Every evil root in me, that will ensure I eventually return to sin, divine mercy uproot them from my life. 

5. HOLY GHOST fire, purge my present and future of all circumstance that will destroy my holiness. 

6. I decree and declare as my confession, I will live holy all the days of my life. 

7. Declare Galatians 5: 22-23 as your way of life. 

8. Present all your other needs before GOD. 

BEYOND HOLINESS

In part 6, we focused on holiness as one major foundation we must have and maintain for a good relationship with GOD and survive in our Christian race. Don't joke with that message. We must move beyond that. Holiness, prayers, knowledge, faith, positive confession, worship, etc, are indispensable for a successful Christian walk, but if you stop there, the enemy may still destroy you. The professionalism that joins all together and makes them impregnable is sacrifice. All we have been discussing have their own works in your life, each cannot perform the function  of another. Example : in construction you need many materials: cement, water, iron, sand, gravel, wood, nails, etc. All are indispensable to the foundation and raising of the building or bridge. But no matter how much of such materials you possess in abundance, no matter how much money is available, if those materials are not combined by professionals and properly placed by qualified technicians to get the needed synergy that will form a well laid structure, all the materials and money spent will be wasted. Those technicians and professionals in the spiritual sense is what I call sacrifices unto GOD. Look around you and see many who live holy (not even a lie), prayerful people, regular Church goers, etc, yet they live poverty stricken lives and many still end up being captured. The mistake they make is that they have the raw materials to be great and last, but they failed in making sacrifices unto GOD. Many virgin sisters and chaste brothers were married by agents, even in the Church, even though they were prayerful and holy brethren. I know many true men of GOD faithful to their callings and living holy, yet were married by marine agents and their ministries greatly hindered in spite of their holiness. A major error of the Church is not to apply the right spiritual laws to the right situation. You must have the anointing, you must live holy, you must be prayerful, have faith, make positive confessions, etc, 

BUT IF YOU CANNOT MAKE SACRIFICES UNTO GOD, SATAN WILL STILL DESTROY YOU. 

These are the reasons. When it comes to certain attacks of the enemy or certain situations, sacrifices unto GOD might be required for you to escape. This is not in all situations, but in specific instances that has to do with generational curses or negative heredity in your blood. In many situations, your faith, prayers and holy living is sufficient to ward off the enemy's attacks, but when generational curses are after you, sacrifices unto GOD must come to play if you are to escape. When you repented, your own sins and consequences were gone. Your parents and ancestors did not repent thus their sins and consequences remain. The spiritual law is that the consequences, that we call generational curses, will still come after you since you are their blood. This is why it is called generational curses or inherited curses; this is what most believers in CHRIST don't have any idea how to handle, some don't even believe in it, though it is destroying them. These curses manifest in many ways :  marital disasters, poverty, failure, breakdowns at the edge of breakthroughs, moral failures, being constantly defrauded, being destroyed with evil gifts, being betrayed, bad character you cannot overcome, enmity, sickness and diseases, hardships, wrong decisions, being spiritually cloned, etc. You will all agree with me that many born-again persons, even genuine ministers of the Gospel, still battle with these things, though they live holy and are anointed. The reason is this; just as it took the sacrifice of JESUS for you to receive Salvation (not good works), it will take more than your holiness, prayers, faith, anointing, etc, for you to also escape those things, if they are consequences of the evil deeds of your ancestors. It will require you make sacrifices unto GOD to escape. 

IF YOU LIVE HOLY, ARE PRAYERFUL, HAVE FAITH, PREACH WELL, ETC, YET FAIL IN SACRIFICES UNTO GOD, GENERATIONAL CURSES WILL STILL DESTROY YOU. 

You can be holy and still live in poverty if you don't give sacrificially unto GOD. That is a spiritual law. Liberality, not only holiness, is the key to prosperity. 

Proverbs 11:24-25. KJV

There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself. 

This is why many holy people still languish in poverty, they don't make the needed sacrifices unto GOD to make them escape. There are holy people who are very selfish, yet blame GOD for their woes. Beloved, many family foundations are very bad. Many of you are from deadly and fetish backgrounds. Many of you are born by witches. Those who gave birth to you have destroyed lives in unimaginable ways, to escape those consequences, you must be ready to activate divine mercy by making sacrifices unto GOD. If you fail in this area, those curses will destroy you. Your parents used evil powers to marry people, they used marriage to destroy lives, if you don't deal with these in prayers and sacrifices unto GOD, the same thing will befall you in spite of your holiness. They afflicted many with poverty, it will take your sacrifices unto GOD for you to escape the curse of poverty on your family as a result of their evil deeds. 

The anointing does not destroy generational curses, sacrifices unto GOD does. 

Psalms 4:5. Living Bible Version.

[5]Put your trust in the Lord, and offer him pleasing sacrifices. 

Hebrews 13:16. KJV

But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. 

SACRIFICES UNTO GOD MUST BE PART OF YOUR LIFE IF YOU WILL LIVE A SUCCESSFUL CHRISTIAN LIFE. 

That is where many fail in spite of their faith and holiness. You now get my point. So many crushed and wrecked holy believers, simply because they disobey the law of sacrifices unto GOD. 

WHAT ARE SACRIFICES UNTO GOD.

Sacrifices unto GOD are any demands of GOD that will make you deny yourself to please him. If you cannot do that, you might not last as a believer, certain miracles might also not come your way. Barrenness is quite often a curse that demands sacrifices unto GOD to escape. This is why many believers still experience barrenness even though they lived holy before and after they married. Some sicknesses and diseases are generational curses, pray all you can, until the law of sacrifices unto GOD is applied, the healing might not come. Years back, a temptation was coming my way, I prayed, yet it lingered. GOD simply instructed me to give an amount of money I wanted to use for something important to a specific work of GOD. Immediately I obeyed, all the temptations simply disappeared. A couple having delay in conception did the same thing and brought the money to me, nine months after they started having kids. A woman gave her last in A.A.Allen (if I remember correctly)  crusade and her crippled child was healed, though both her and the child had been in the same crusade for days without healing. People also gave her back in mulitiple fold before she left. This is not only in sacrificial giving. GOD can ask you to go and serve HIM in a hard place in sweat and tears as sacrifices unto HIM. You might need to suffer for CHRIST for a while. A hard beginning in ministry while staying faithful to GOD is also another form of sacrifices unto GOD, don't run from it. Working in GOD'S house sacrificially another form of sacrifice. You might be asked to risk your life for GOD'S people as sacrifice unto GOD. Rendering services freely unto a true servant of GOD another form of sacrifice. A woman was sick and brought to the Pastor for prayers. As the Pastor prayed, GOD told him to simply tell the sick woman to pick a broom and start sweeping the Church (a curse was responsible for the sickness, sacrifice was required for her healing), in her weak state, she began to sweep, within a few minutes, she was instantly healed without any special prayers. What some miracles require is sacrifice unto GOD, not prayers. 

NEVER RUN FROM ANY OPPORTUNITY TO SACRIFICIALLY SERVE AND GIVE TO GOD, IT IS FOR YOUR OWN GOOD. 

I have seen lives turn around for good just by people ministering to me out of their needs. I have seen giving unto GOD through me kill barrenness. I have seen this law send death away. 

SISTERS IN CHRIST 

Sisters in CHRIST, GOD can ask you to go marry a true servant of GOD still struggling and support him, obey fast, you never can tell what destruction GOD is trying to remove from your life. Beloved, many you see going about quietly among us, appearing harmless and friendly, some also pretending to be good Church people, are the real brains behind many destruction you see in the lives of people. Sisters; fast, pray, give sacrificially, obey GOD and escape. Those who marry agents of darkness, initially enjoy pleasure and money, but, trust me, they will eventually destroy you and send you to hell. Marrying one genuinely born-again person (not easy to find in this present world), though not rich, is far better than marrying extremely wealthy people who will eventually send you to hell. Sister, one, two or more good sacrificial seed that reaches GOD, can save you from the destruction of bad marriage. Do it ! 

ANOTHER FORM OF SACRIFICE.

Placing food and wine before GOD is a well established form of sacrifice right from the old testament. 

Joel 2:13-14. AMP. 

[13]Rend your hearts and not your garments and return to the Lord, your God, for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in loving-kindness; and He revokes His sentence of evil [when His conditions are met].

[14]Who knows but what He will turn, revoke your sentence [of evil], and leave a blessing behind Him [giving you the means with which to serve Him], even a cereal or meal offering and a drink offering for the Lord, your God? 

Learn to feed the poor, genuinely needy, true believers in CHRIST and true servants of GOD. It is sacrifice that can deliver you from many known and unknown destruction. 

Proverbs 22:9. KJV

He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor.

All these are spiritual laws of sacrifices unto GOD you must obey if you will prosper in life and be free of many seen and unseen destruction. Holiness alone is not enough. 

CAUTION

Before you jump out foolishly, ask GOD to lead you to the right place and person where to place your sacrifice and serve GOD. Your sacrifice must reach GOD in the right way for it to speak for you. If GOD did not establish the ministry or evil forces are running it, you are wasting your time there. If your tithes and offerings are going to the wrong places, they are not reaching GOD, they cannot work for you. Stop wasting your time, seeds and efforts; pray to GOD to lead you. 

ASSIGNMENT

Ensure you go through all previous Bible reading assignments. If you have covered all, proceed on a chapter by chapter study of the book of Proverbs for the next few weeks. 

DIVINE DIRECTION. 

Proverbs 3:5. MSG

Trust God from the bottom of your heart;don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he's the one who will keep you on track. Don't assume that you know it all. Run to God! Run from evil! Your body will glow with health, your very bones will vibrate with life! Honor God with everything you own;give him the first and the best.Your barns will burst, your wine vats will brim over. But don't, dear friend, resent God's discipline; don't sulk under his loving correction. It's the child he loves that God corrects; a father's delight is behind all this. 

I advise you write or print the scriptures above, paste it on the wall where you can see it always, they will save your life. We have touched on several foundations you must have if you will survive this world and end with GOD in heaven and not end in hell. The first was Salvation in JESUS. You must be born-again, outside that, everything else is a waste of time. Once you have Salvation in place, put the other foundations in place too and all will be well. This part 8 is a most life saving foundation you must also have in place if you will not eventually be destroyed. 

YOU MUST LET GOD DIRECT YOU IN ALL YOU DO IF THE ENEMY WILL NOT CAPTURE YOU AND IF YOU WANT TO END WELL. 

1. Trust GOD. You can never be as wise as GOD and you can never know everything. There are many things you can never see, no matter the level of your education, exposure, knowledge or anointing. This world is a spiritual jungle, far too mysterious for you to use your head as compass. As long as you can hear GOD and let HIM lead you in all you do, you will be safe. 

2. Yes, think, but always pray this prayer constantly. Pray it now. 

"LORD, lead and direct me, never allow me miss my way" 

That prayer can save you from a thousand destructions. HE speaks in various ways. HE speaks through the Bible as HE is doing now and through personal revelations in your Spirit. To learn to hear the voice of the HOLY SPIRIT in your spirit might not be easy for a beginner, but with time you will improve in sensitivity to the HOLY SPIRIT.  If you are genuinely born-again, the HOLY SPIRIT will start speaking to you. This often comes not as a loud voice you hear, but as gentle nudging in your Spirit you did not originate. Once you become sensitive to this, following will be easy. Mind you, your flesh, feelings, emotions and evil spirits can also counterfeit this. This is where you must be careful. Not all thoughts that comes to your mind is from the HOLY SPIRIT, evil forces can also speak to your mind. The acid test is this prayer you should pray if confused. 

LORD, if this idea is not from you, let fire destroy it, i reject it in JESUS NAME. If it is from you, let it stand, I accept it in JESUS NAME. 

Always pray that way and then wait for a while. False ones will die, GOD'S own will stay; then proceed to immediately obey. GOD also speaks through dreams and revelations, though fake dreams and revelations from evil forces also abound. Always pray the prayer above to be sure and ensure all bad things you see in dreams you immediately cancel in prayers lest they befall you. Never take bad dreams for granted. 

3. Never be led by instincts. This is opposed to reason. Instincts run animals, that is why simple traps catch them. Many of you have inherited animal instincts, a little external stimuli: money, beauty or handsomeness, slight provocation, sweet words, etc, and you fall. Go on your knees now and pray 

LORD, take out of me all instincts that will destroy me. 

Don't take that point for granted. I have seen that crash many believers and even true ministers of the Gospel who did not fight it. If instincts run you, it will run you against all reasoning into death and destruction. They will set traps for you like animals and you will fall like animals. 

4. Always ask for GOD'S leading before taking any decision in life : in choice of career, in day to day decisions, in marriage, in giving, in the choice of Church you attend; in all issues, big or small, even before embarking on a journey. Ensure you obey HIM, even if you do not understand why HE is telling you to do certain things. HE knows and sees what you can never see. Trust HIM and obey HIM always. One act of disobedience can do untold damage to your life. 

All true fire believers in CHRIST and true ministers of the Gospel who were captured and destroyed disobeyed GOD in one way or another, never disobey GOD. 

5. Note that some instructions HE will give you might not be easy, always obey, it is always in your best interest. This is where many fail and are destroyed. Let me summarise with a personal testimony. Years back, a sister from a different fellowship group from mine was getting close to me and I too was getting fond of her, we liked each other and all was well between us. Everything looked right. She was a believer and a disciplined one too. We began to move towards a real relationship. Nothing wrong with that. All looked well. She was actually sincere and meant no harm. One day while praying, the HOLY SPIRIT said "take that money you are keeping for a need and give it to that person......". No reason was given. I promptly obeyed. Not long after, the sister in question woke up one morning and cut me off abruptly. All relationship ended and she never came back to look for me. I was confused and did not understand, but I moved on. Today, I thank GOD I obeyed HIM. She was one of the countless born-again programmes (not real born-again) sent to Churches as male and female to capture true believers and marry them. They dress, talk and do things almost exactly the way true born-again persons do; almost impossible to spot the difference. She, just like many of them, did not know she was not human. The sacrifice GOD asked me to make delivered me from the disaster waiting to happen. If I had disobeyed GOD, as many did and still do, she would not have left, our relationship would have blossomed, and I would have married an agent who did not even know she was one. On many occasions, GOD will not explain why HE leads you to do or not do certain things, just obey HIM. Let seeking GOD'S direction over all issues before acting be established as a law in your life. Obey HIM no matter the cost or those you will offend. 

PRAYERS

1. Open your Bible to, 

Psalms 37:23. KJV

The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. 

Psalms 91:11-12. KJV 

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. 

declare them over all areas of your life and issues affecting you. Say loudly 

"LORD, I give you full jurisdiction over all areas of my life. I am fully yielded to your leading and direction for my life. HOLY SPIRIT, take full control of me in JESUS NAME". 

2. Let fire continously destroy all leading contrary to the leading of the HOLY SPIRIT in all areas of my life. I continously silence by fire all voices contrary to the voice of GOD in my life. I subject my feelings, emotions and desires to the leading of the HOLY SPIRIT. 

3. Quote, 

Romans 8:14. KJV

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. 

and declare 7 times: 

" I belong to GOD, therefore, I am led by the Spirit of GOD". 

4. In all the ways I have missed GOD'S direction, I retrace my steps in JESUS NAME. All things hindering me from hearing and obeying GOD, be destroyed in JESUS NAME. 

YOU, THE CHURCH AND THE WORLD.

This marks the conclusion of our foundation series. For previous parts, scroll up. As a believer in CHRIST and for your faith to last, it is very important you have a clear understanding of who you are, what the Church is and your place in this world.

1. Becoming born-again is to declare for the ways of JESUS contrary to the ways of the world. You can no longer do what they do, no matter the cost, as long as it violates the Spirit and letters of the new testament. 

Romans 12:2. NRSV

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God—what is good and acceptable and perfect. 

John 15:18-19. MSG

"If you find the godless world is hating you, remember it got its start hating me. If you lived on the world's terms, the world would love you as one of its own. But since I picked you to live on God's terms and no longer on the world's terms, the world is going to hate you. 

JESUS told us that our way of life must be different, also they will hate us for it. Therefore, do not be surprised if they speak evil of you because of your faith and holy living. We don't apologise for our faith or go about explaining why we are living holy to any devil (only devils or those possessed hate holiness). We as believers are meant to live on GOD'S terms. Living on GOD'S terms means we don't marry the way they marry : many boyfriends and girlfriends here and there, 'testing' and 'tasting' here and there, picking each other on the streets and night clubs, cohabiting without marriage, idolatry practices as marriage rites, etc. Godliness run our homes. We don't talk or dress the way they dress, we don't live in sin or practice anything ungodly. Concerning money; we don't see money the way they see it. We spend money too, but not to commit crime or violate GOD'S word because of money. We don't participate in fraud. We pray and flee accursed things : blood money, proceed of crime, etc. Unfortunately, believers often backslide and violate GOD'S word, this energises evil forces to come after the rest of us. Why ? Their mindset is that if one can do it, others will do it too and they proceed accordingly. What they see in others, they use to judge the rest of us. This is why they often take us for granted, including me. They made several terrible and insulting assumptions in my case. I still wonder how they conceived those bogus and sacrilegious ideas, probably because of what many did. As you journey in your Christian faith, others may backslide, even those older in the faith; don't join them, instead pray for them, if they persist, let them go, you continue in your walk with GOD. Your personal relationship and fellowship with GOD is the most important. Talk to GOD first before talking to others about any issue, even before consulting Pastors. Learn to hear GOD personally, this will save you from many errors. The part 8 of this message explains how to hear GOD, go and read it.

2. We are not selfish people, but generous people. True born-again persons are known for their generosity. The world may be selfish, you must be generous. We are different. The covenant of darkness is that in their kingdom, you don't help others who don't belong, ironically they can take from those others, even take from the Church they hate. We are different. We love all, we help all. The Church has even helped and shown love to many marine agents, yet they must destroy us anywhere they see us. We have no such covenant in the Church, we help all. We are good. I have used my various platforms online to promote many works of people I don’t know, and they made money, without me ever directly asking them for a penny thus far.That is my new life in CHRIST nature. The world only do good if it will yield more returns for them. We do good as our nature and way of life, returns or not. This is why you, as a true believer in CHRIST, must pray every greed and selfishness out of your life. If you don't, they will eventually destroy you. Years back, when people have problems, are rejected, lonely and abandoned, etc, they run to Church. The Church sacrificed a lot to rescue many from various troubles. Most Gospel materials were not sold (I benefited from that too), nobody charged money for Christian conferences and seminars, etc. True believers sacrificed to do all these. Many of the schools and hospitals you visit today were established by the Church. Missionaries risked their lives to reach out to many dark places and communities. The world is filled with hate, true believers must be filled with love. Those doing all they can to kill love in this world are simply self-destructing. It will come back to them. They forget the spiritual law; whatever you sow, you reap. Born-again people are people of love, radiant and sweet. We don't wait to be asked before we give. 80% of people I give to never asked me, some never knew me. The Church started orphanages and philanthropic groups. The Church started ministry to the destitute and prison. The Church always take care of the old. When the old and aged are abandoned, they ran to the Church. Many widows were cared for till death by the Church. When hungry, you look for the nearest born-again persons, knowing your food is assured. Healing ministry came through the Church. Many terminal cases were healed through the Church, whole hospitals emptied. When crime rise, the true Church will gather, fast, pray and robbers will flee such neighbourhood. Years back, you don't kidnap a Church member or their children; the whole Church will declare fasting and prayers against you and GOD will intervene. I have heard of such cases where Angels were sent to rescue such kidnapped victims when the Church prayed. Compassion move us. We have the Spirit of CHRIST. Those who don't have will see us as strange. True child of GOD, if you notice any character different from good ones in your life, run to GOD in prayers, be a true born-again person. It used to be a general knowledge many years ago; if you need help, run to a born-again person. If you are hungry, you look for the nearest born-again person. Is it still the same today ? Not our fault though, most people you see going about as born-again persons are simply agents. This is where the problem is coming from. Attempting to do away with the true Church or replace us with non human creatures as believers is tantamount to a world declaring a self genocide (already ongoing). Crime and death will surge so bad that even the most spiritually powerful will be consumed. Mind you, as you show love, be cautious because of enemies posing as friends and agents sent to deceive and defraud you. Also pray against evil gifts and strange help reaching you, agents in Church or outside Church can also pass such to you as false 'help' to destroy you. 

3. Another source of problem is we forgetting what the Church is. Let me summarise what the true Church is. The true Church is a gathering of people who are genuinely born-again. One of our functions is to reach out to as many as we can and bring them to CHRIST. We are under JESUS and run according to GOD'S word. We are meant to be apart from the way and practices of the world and sin for us to be effective. No occultism, no blood money, no fetish practice, no politicking in Church affairs, no favoritism of rich over poor, no sexual immorality, etc. We stand by one another and help one another. We pray for peace and live for peace. JESUS CHRIST our head. All these we must never forget. 

As you continue in your Christian race, let all these foundational truth and the points above be part of your life. You did not come to JESUS because of money. You came to CHRIST to serve HIM. Prosperity one of HIS blessings, not the reason for getting saved. Money or not, your faith in GOD must stand. You must also be ready to make sacrifices for GOD as a true child of GOD. I want you to end the Christian race well. I want us to meet in heaven. Wish you will reach me so I can know you. Let us pray.
