Your Expectation is Your Destination

Your Expectation is Your Destination

Your Expectation is Your Destination

Trust me, I will not leave you stranded, I really don't want you left behind, you must be carried along, and you must operate inside and not be dropped at the gate, even when the gate is called beautiful, nothing outside can worth what is inside, no matter how beautiful the outside may look, and gate is always outside. You must be wondering where I got all these from; clearly from the teaching of the great man of God who taught us mightily yesterday; Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor. Let's go straight to the first scripture he read to us and I will limit us there, you are free to go and check out the full version on our YouTube channel.


Act 3: 1-3, 8 "Now Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour (three o’clock in the afternoon)[When] a certain man crippled from his birth was being carried along, who was laid each day at that gate of the temple [which is] called Beautiful, so that he might beg for charitable gifts from those who entered the temple. So when he saw Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked them to give him a gift. 8 And leaping forth he stood and [b]began to walk, and he went into the temple with them, walking and leaping and praising God"


The man of God defined dream as a picture painted in your subconscious mind, that will happen, although it has not happened. He said your dream is your expectation, and your expectation is your dream. The inside of the gate called beautiful was the desired destination of the man born cripple, but the helpers; like many of yours could only help him as far as the gate, it is better for them to leave him at the gate even when his dream was to limp, and jump and praise God inside the temple. Like you want to enter into your dream land, and thinking it is men that will take you in, he said no man can help you if God will not help you, listen, he said God can compel man to help you but man cannot compel God to help you. 


He said God will not allow you to have a dream if He does not want to bring it to past, and if your dream is not bigger than you, then it is not from God. So never see your dream as too big to scare you, if nothing scares God, nothing should scare a Dreamer like you. So what are your dreams and expectations this season? No matter how big it is, you will not be left at the gate of that dream, you will enter into your expectation, limping, jumping and praising God for the reality of it.


I will leave you to start praising God ahead of the manifestation and birthing of your dream in this month and season of birthing and manifestation.


Prayer: Father, take me into the manifestation of my dreams, compel my helpers to help me, that I may praise you all my days, Amen!

Righteous yet Idolatry

Righteous yet Idolatry

Righteous yet Idolatry

I discover that growth should be continuous, and the older we grow in maturity, the more we know what appears right before could now be wrong. A child will play with the sand and rob hands on his body to keep the hands clean leaving the clothe dirty at age 2 or 3, at 4 or 5 the same child may not clean hands with his clothe but show the hands to the mother or any elder around, the same child will wash his hands with water at age 6 or 7. If a 7 years old child cleans his hands robbing it on his clothes, the parents or trainers will spank his palms in correction even when he cry of the pain because much is expected of him beyond what he has done. This is the reason we keep teaching even the adults in the elementary at times but with different language than we will teach the unknowledgeable children because you ought to have grown, hence this teaching is not for babies today.


Dan.5:23 ‘And you have lifted yourself up against the Lord of heaven. They have brought the vessels of His house before you, and you and your lords, your wives and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. And you have praised the gods of silver and gold, bronze and iron, wood and stone, which do not see or hear or know; and the God who holds your breath in His hand and owns all your ways you have not glorified.’


Now, if we agree that there is nothing we have that has not been given to us by God including our lives, then it means the original owner of all is God and such things as given to us should never be used outside the honour of God and against God, when we allow the wrong use of such and against God, we are in idolatry. Idolatry therefore has gone beyond the setting up of stones or anything and bowing to it like we will define it to children; are you idolatry? Your answer will be a quick and emphatic NO, but don’t be in a rush to answer, use the scripture above. Your house is that of God, your resources given to you by God belongs to Him, your time is His, He can decide it is over and you will have no say. Answer the questions I want to ask and then answer if you are idolatry.


Who ranks first in the use of your time? If God has need of your house at a certain time and you have a club meeting fixed for your house the same hour, which one will go for the other? Between you and God, who is first in the spending of your money and when does complain come most; in spending for yourself or spending for God? Who will you rather honour and celebrate more between God and your loved ones, even with your time, space and resources? How often do you complaint of long hours spent in church once or twice a week compared to hours spent at work, club and with friends daily?


When you allow whatever God gives you to determine your relationship and conduct with Him, you are Idolatry, even in your high level of righteousness, answer the questions. Good bye.


A word is enough for the wise; if it belongs to God; let Him have it still.


Prayer: Father, open my eyes to every act of idolatry in my life and grant me the humility to accept and repent of it all, Amen!

After Boasting of God; Relent Not

After Boasting of God; Relent Not

After Boasting of God; Relent Not

Have you noticed that this year is far spent? You started the year by boasting of God’s ability to help you and take you to the next level, I joined you in the prayer and I prayed for myself also. The enemies were watching to see how it will happen, they are beginning to laugh and you are about considering something shameful, please don’t yet, take a look at what I have been sent to tell you today.


You are about to accept to go and beg from the person you had boasted to earlier, he/she offered to help you with whatever you want but you told him/her God is able to meet all your needs because you knew that help will not come from him without you paying for it in a hard way. Now you are about to go back, will you go and tell Him your God have failed? No! It will not happen, God will save your face from shame, you will not have to go back and beg; something must happen.


We boast of God most times and think the devil will fold his arms and see our boast come to past with ease, he won’t, he will fight it and that is what you are experiencing right now. After boasting, you don’t relent but you go into prayers, if prayer alone will not work then you fast and seek God’s face, tell Him you have boasted of what He can do and then He will answer.


Ezra 8:21-23 ‘ Then I proclaimed a fast there at the river of Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek from Him the right way for us and our little ones and all our possessions. For I was ashamed to request of the king an escort of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy on the road, because we had spoken to the king, saying, “The hand of our God is upon all those for good who seek Him, but His power and His wrath are against all those who forsake Him.”  So we fasted and entreated our God for this, and He answered our prayer.’


Your boast of God will not fall back on you; so pray!


𝑷𝒓𝒂𝒚𝒆𝒓: 𝑭𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓, 𝑰 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒃𝒐𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒘𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒅𝒐, 𝒗𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒕 𝒎𝒆 𝑳𝒐𝒓𝒅 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒅𝒐𝒏'𝒕 𝒍𝒆𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒅𝒆𝒗𝒊𝒍 𝒍𝒂𝒖𝒈𝒉 𝒂𝒕 𝒎𝒆, 𝑨𝒎𝒆𝒏!


FAITH CHRONICLES: HOW OUR FATHERS NAVIGATED CONFUSION

FAITH CHRONICLES: HOW OUR FATHERS NAVIGATED CONFUSION
FAITH CHRONICLES: HOW OUR FATHERS NAVIGATED CONFUSION

In the early 90's, a young pastor was transferred to a local assembly in Ondo state, under few months that he got to that town, the Lord favoured him and the ministry that have not been growing began to increase in numbers. He was so hardworking that neighbouring churches began to envy him.

The eleders in the church began to see him as a threat. How come, every other persons failed here but this man have rebuilt the church physically just as God was doing it spiritually.

So they gang up against him.

They went to Akure and reported him to Baba Obadare, they labelled him with all kind of names. 
Baba told them to return to Ondo that he would come around and settle the matter.

Under one month about six group have gone to Akure to report the pastor.
Weeks later, the elders colluded with some characters in the community to get rid of the pastor. So the whole matter was taking to Baba Obadare, as they were accusing the pastor, Baba kept quiet not saying a thing.

The odd was against the young pastor so much that he flared up, shouting haba, what did I do to deserve all of these. To the surprise of the pastor, Baba shouted on him to keep quiet to the amusement of his accusers.

When the whole noise died down, Baba faced the direction where the Pastor was seated on floor fuming with anger, he said while they were accusing you, I was listening to the holy spirit to know the truth. You know I don't have physical eyes, I can only depend on my spiritual sight.

As they were talking, the holy spirit showed me the house of Elder lagbaja and Tamedu( mentioning the names) where the matter was hatched. You should have been patience abit for me instead of confronting them.

They don't know God but you know Him yet you are behaving like them. The elders were surprised how the whole matter was reveal to Baba Obadare and they began to beg the Pastor to forgive them.

Baba told the Pastor that he had just one month to the season of his reward but he had scuttled the progress by grieving the holy spirit because he tried to fight for himself.

He told the pastor to embark on a 21day white fasting and prayers asking for mercy, patience and restoration.A matter that was hatched for over six months were revealed to His servant under an hour.

We have abandoned the ancient path, we have chosen intellectualism over the holy spirit that's the reason for the pandemonium in and around our worship centre today. All of the elders were asked to step down with immediate effect.

There was a time in this nation when the Holy Spirit rules in our worship centre.We ask oh Lord, have mercy on us and restore us.

Raw faith is the missing link, you can not add anything to God  no matter how intelligent you think you are.
