GO FOR KNOWLEDGE

(PART 2)

ISAIAH 33:6

You can copy a man but you won't have the confidence of that man. Allow God build confidence in you. 


An authentic ministry has foundation upon which every result you see is built. 


Many people desire the results, but very few desire the foundation.  


They copy the result but because they have no foundation, one fierce storm and they are thrown off balance and they topple over. 


Allow God give you a deep foundation, don't be in a hurry to get results. 


Anytime you catch yourself running after things you have just misplaced your priorities. 


Things are suppose to run after you not the other way round, Isaiah 60:4-7.


Results are not to be sought or pursued, they are what follows us as we follow God faithfully, John 15:4-8. And these signs SHALL FOLLOW THEM that believe, Mark 16:17.


Stop praying for signs and wonders and miracles to happen in your life and ministry, instead go for knowledge. 


As you go for knowledge and you structure your life after the things you are learning, the things you are looking for will begin to follow you. 


Results follow obedience, glory follows pattern. Longevity follows foundation. Pleasing God follows a lifestyle of faith.


Many times when we ask God for results, these are the things that He shows us. 


Once the foundation, pattern, life of faith, life of obedience and life of followership are present, the results we seek follows. 


John 12:26 says if any man serve me, let Him follow me and where I am there shall also my servant be. If any man serve me, him will my father honour.


Sink your root very deep in knowledge. The Lord told me, I am not concerned about giving you results, I am concerned about giving you a very robust and deep foundation in Me. 


He said, What I am paying attention to now is your root, the foundation of knowledge, ALLOW ME. 2Kings 19:30, Isaiah 33:6, Hosea 4:6


If God is the one that builds you, it is impossible for results not to follow you. 


But if you are the one that builds your life by yourself and according to your pattern, you will run after results. 


Only one thing is needed, see to it that you build it according to the pattern shown you and the glory cannot but rest on it. 


Your concern should be building according to pattern, i.e obedience, followership and faithfulness not having results.


Results follow these things.


When the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt, He led them from place to place in the wilderness before He finally led them into the promised land. 


Not necessarily because they are a rebellious people but because they needed to be transformed.


So, that you are not yet seeing some level of results in your life and ministry or business does not mean you are not doing well, God is working on you to transform you into that new wine skin that can contain the new wine.  


New wine is poured into new wine skin not old wine skin, Mark 2:22. 


It is also important to note that for every level of result you desire, there is a requisite new wine skin that is needed to contain the new wine at that level. So the work of God upon our lives is continuous.


You must love the Word, it is the rod for signs and wonders, Isaiah 11:1&2.  You must love the Word more than signs and wonders to have signs and wonders follow you. 


Never find yourself loving signs and wonders more than My Word.


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!

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
