THE TRANSITION


Who is journeying with you as you go through life? It matters a lot who hold your hand as you walk the roads of life. 


If it is the Holy Spirit, then you have nothing to fear no matter how horrible a past or present you may have. 


All this while you have been using your past and present to judge what your future will look like. 


God sent me to tell you that your future doesn't look like your past or your today at all. 


There is no sorrow in your future, mourning is not there, pain is not there, lack or poverty is not there, sickness is not there. All those are in your past, they are things you are leaving behind in your today. 


All those questions you are asking will be sorted out and settled in your today, they will not go with you into your future. 


All those things you have sleepless nights about are not there. You will get to your future only to find out that it was a share waste of time worrying and being anxious over those things in the first place. 


As you are journeying in your today all those things you see that make you afraid you are leaving them behind in your. Your today is your transition period. 


A man that is travelling is not afraid when he enters into a thick forest and a sparse grass land of nothingness. You know why? They are things he is leaving behind to get to his destination. 


EGYPT IN YOUR PAST, WILDERNESS IN YOUR TODAY AND THE PROMISED LAND IN YOUR FUTURE. 


You now see why you need not be afraid of the wilderness of today, they are things you are leaving behind. You are transiting because you are on a journey. 


Just picture yourself travelling somewhere. You are not afraid if the road leads you to  a thick forest or a vast desert land because you know you will soon leave them behind to get to your destination. More so because you know who is travelling with you, THE HOLY SPIRIT. 


Start calling your today what it is, no matter how good or bad it is, MY TRANSITION PERIOD. 


Those that are living for the future has a posture they assume, a mindset they carry, an attitude they maintain and a culture they imbibe that is different from that of people living for today or living their past in their today. 


God told Hezekiah what he feared would not happen, the King of Assyria would not come into Judah, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shields, nor cast a bank against it. By the way he came, by the same way shall he return and shall not come into this city, says the Lord, Isaiah 37:34-35. 


God is saying the same thing to you again this morning, all those things that make you afraid will not happen, it will not enter into the city God has prepared for you (your future)




All those things will not feature there, it will not even be spoken of there. No jackal will there to make you afraid, no owl will be there to sing a dirge for you. No vulture will be there to eat your flesh or pluck your eyes out. 


No dragon or lion or ravenous beast is there. All those things that make people afraid are not there. Only an highway is there and it is the high way of holiness and the unclean shall  not pass over it, Isaiah 35:8&9.  


Your future is so sure and so secured in Christ. By being secured I do not just mean that it will happen; it will also be tight proof against those things that make you afraid. Nothing will crop up from your past to threaten it or pull it down. 


This shall be your testimony: Because the former troubles are forgotten and because they are hid from eyes.


For behold I create new heavens and a new earth and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. 


But be ye glad and rejoice forever in that which I create for behold I create Jerusalem a rejoicing and her people a joy. 


And I will rejoice in Jerusalem and joy in my people and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her nor the voice of crying, Isaiah 65:16b-19.


Your heart shall meditate on the past terror. Where is the scribe? Where is the receiver? Where is he that counted the towers? 


You shall not see a fierce people, a people of deeper speech that you cannot perceive, of a stammering tongue that you cannot understand, Isaiah 33:18-19.


SALVATION PRAYER

Anything short of you being born again and living a life of holiness and purity hurt Jesus so much. But you can make things right here and now by saying this simple prayer and mean it genuinely from your heart:


Lord Jesus I come to you today. I acknowledge that I am a sinner and I cannot help myself. I repent of all my sins and I forsake them. Jesus, I invite you into my life, be my Lord, be my Saviour. 


Wash me by your precious blood, forgive my sins and write my name in the book of life. From this day, I promise to follow you all the rest of my life. Help me Lord, in Jesus name, Amen. Congratulations you are now born again!


PEACE

LETTER TO SINGLE SISTERS   Genesis 3:16 The misuse of authority by men came as a result of the curse, Genesis 3:16. For this not to happen, a man has to come out from under the curse and be subject to the lordship of Jesus not to come under the effect of that curse.  When it is a curse, without help, that is where a natural man will tend towards, towards the curse that allows women to be abused by authority. The curse says, "The desire of the woman shall be for her husband and he shall rule over her", Genesis 3:16.  When Apostle Paul was talking to couples in Ephesians 5:22-33, he was talking to those that have been redeemed from the curse of the law and have come under the lordship of Jesus Christ, Galatians 3:13  Not just those that have been redeemed from the curse alone but has also come under the lordship of Christ.  Only men who has come under the lordship of Jesus Christ can have a marriage void of the effect of the curse.  No man that is not submitted to the lordship

FASTING DYNAMICS  Hosea 4:6 To know how to fast in an acceptable manner, you must understand what fasting is and what it is not.  Simply put, fasting is abstinence from anything that gives your body or flesh pleasure for the purpose of your spirit rising to commune with God freely without any interference from your flesh Fasting is denying your n flesh of certain pleasure it loves to have  for the aim of bringing it to a place where it is subject to your spirit.  That is for the purpose of your spirit rising above your flesh to the place where it can relate with God with little or no interference from your flesh. Fasting is not only restricted to food or water, abstaining from sex is a kind of fast that also has spiritual value.  Another kind of fast that also has spiritual value is abstaining from either food or water or both for a period of time.      My people  are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because thou has rejected  knowledge I have also rejected you, Hosea 4:6.  When you wa

SPIRITUALLY AMBITIOUS OR A GOD SEEKER? PSALM 24:6 Just as one can be ambitious physically, one can also be ambitious spiritually too.  Sometime ago, I listened to a preacher and he mentioned the number of hours he spent praying and I was challenged.  Right in that meeting I made up my mind to jack up my prayer life and I set it as a goal. Immediately after I left the place I began to work at my new goal and was I able to meet up my new goal? Yes I did and I was excited and very happy.  It continued like that for some time, I was hitting the mark that I set for myself at all cost and along the line I was so consumed with meeting that mark that I didn't  notice that it was creeping into the time I spent to sit in the presence of the Holy Spirit just to hear Him speak to me.  He stopped being the Lord of that prayer time. If He wanted me to worship, I would stifle the worship because I wanted to meet that prayer target.  When His voice is coming during that prayer time and I was suppo
