1. Seek for the next big opportunity that is right before you.
2. Build a daily confession of its present reality in your life mix it with thanksgiving and praise.
3. Go to God for wisdom to teach you how to get it done.
4. Go to work obeying his instructions.
What someone else did by revelation you may attempt the same through "strategy" by copying, but it always will fall flat.
It will lack divine presence. You will find out it is not of him that runneth nor willeth but by God who showeth mercy.
Obedience is better than sacrifice and he will rather have mercy than sacrifice.
It will lack the finger of God that drives things beyond what and where you can reach. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit but that which is born of the flesh is flesh.
They may look alike externally but impact wise they will be miles apart. One is by grace the other through effort.
Pray to find your own path and run the race that is set before you.
@pastorpoju Very true
What never works is to deny yourself and betray your own core values because of the fear of hurting the feelings of another, scared of being abandoned or ostracised and so you sell your soul to belong.
Nobody succeeds without first aligning themselves with their true values. Your soul is not available to be manipulated by those who have no respect for your personal boundaries.
Be kind and hospitable but place a high value on yourself. Your sense of self worth is key. Build a wall around your soul but let it have a gate. A point of decision as to what goes out and what comes in.
Cultivate that walled garden within. Make it productive and beautiful it will attract those who are perfectly aligned with you.
@GbengaWemimo This is the Truth every Believer in Christ needs to know and accept.
A lot of Christians still do not understand God's priority in sending Jesus Christ into the world to save us from our sins.
They think Jesus came so that born-again Christians can become the Spiritual Police of Heaven or the gatekeepers of heaven whose duty is to catch sinners and stop them from accessing heaven and the benefits of Christ due to the things they had done, which the believer believes were wrong.
Even if the person committed murder in this life, does that give any believer the right to insist the person must go to hell and never find redemption for their soul?
Why do we have prison ministries? Why do we get sent to minister to known criminals who had done very grievous things and had accumulated wealth and attained positions of strength and power in society with the message of salvation, even though we know they had done despicable things?
Jonah was meditating on the word of God all by himself when the voice of God came to him and sent him to Nineveh to preach the repentance of sin.
Nineveh was the capital of Assyria, the seat of the government of pagans who had troubled many nations and kingdoms, including Israel, for several generations.
Many of us may take a look at the story told by the Prophet Isaiah (Isaiah 36 and 37) and the book of Kings (2 Kings 18 and 19).
Sennacherib, the King of Assyria, whose palace was in Nineveh, came to Israel to boast and make demands that do not denigrate the people of God, but also troubled the king and citizens of Israel to the core.
In human understanding and reasoning, God should not extend a hand of fellowship, forgiveness, repentance, and love to such people.
The right thing in human reasoning is to punish such a nation and destroy it totally, according to the word of God, which states that the wicked shall be cut off from the earth because God loves righteousness.
Jonah couldn't believe that God would rather call Nineveh to repentance rather than destroy the nation. He decided by himself not to deliver the message; he felt God was being unfair!
The prodigal son's older brother also felt this way. He was the faithful son who never strayed, who had lived a holy and consecrated life since he was born.
He never gave his father a minute of trouble, and he had always been obedient
His brother, however, had always been wild and heady. A willful young man who consistently defied their father and troubled his soul. A cancer that ought to be cut off completely!
This brother collected his birthright while their father was still alive!
Who does that?
Who dares tell the living to share his properties as if he were dead?
His father indulged him, and he left home.
Naturally, his father should consider him dead. Delete his memory. Wear sack clothes and mourn over him. Disown him and forget about him.
That young man crossed THE LINE OF NO RETURN.
He left home without looking back.
As far as the brother was concerned, his brother was dead.
The father, however, kept vigil over the soul of his son daily
What he collected was not the issue
She got pregnant was never the issue
He committed fraud was not the issue
The issue was not in the action of the person; the issue is in the heart of the father towards the person.
The same reason God sent his only begotten son to die for the sins of the whole world, despite the fact that he had never tasted sin, and he was not born of the seed of sin
That same reason is why the born-again Christian is an ambassador of restoration, reconciliation, and love, and not an ambassador of sin or a gatekeeper of heaven who determines who can enter and who cannot enter.
Jonah the Prodigal Son's older brother's reactions were valid, but they were unacceptable to God and the father!
God compelled Jonah to go to Nineveh despite his misgivings and obvious disobedience. Jonah was forced to preach repentance and the nation of Nineveh repented even though he didn't want them to.
Jonah got so angry after that, he asked God to kill him. (Jonah 4:2-3)
He prayed to the Lord, “Isn’t this what I said, Lord, when I was still at home? That is what I tried to forestall by fleeing to Tarshish. I knew that you are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abounding in love, a God who relents from sending calamity. 3 Now, Lord, take away my life, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
The Father said to his son "“But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ So they began to celebrate.
“Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. ‘Your brother has come,’ he replied, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’
“The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these years I’ve been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!’
31 “‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. 32 But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found
Many Christians today act like Jonah and the brother of the Prodigal Son.
A father determines the fate of his child.
A son has no say in the destiny of his brother.
Jacob tried to determine the destiny of Esau, and he failed woefully.
Consecration, Holiness, Right living, and other valid Christian doctrines are taught and preached for personal development in one's walk with God.
They are not weapons or stones that we throw at other people like Pharisees condemning the woman caught in Adultery.
In the woman's case, Jesus demonstrated that the heart of God was not to condemn but to redeem.
God is love!
PS: I know many Christians don't understand this yet. I do not condemn them for not doing so. It took me years to come to the infallible understanding of the love of God and why those of us who are truly like him would never stop others from enjoying the fellowship of believers or prevent them from experiencing the joy in the fellowship of the Spirit.

WHAT EXACTLY IS SIN IN THE NEW TESTAMENT?
QUESTION – Sir, can you please explain what sin is according to the New Testament? I heard you say he that walks in love cannot sin at the same time, and then you said a brother cannot steal from someone to repay another because of love. [Yeah] Pastor what about the sin the Bible calls ‘sinning against his body’ (1 Corinthians 6:18). Please, throw more light on what sin is in the New Testament. Thank you, sir.
ANSWER: Alright. Well, you’ve actually got two questions there. So, I will just run through them. 1 Corinthians Chapter 6, from verse 15: “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 a harlot? God forbid.”
Did you hear that? Then, it says, [verse 16-20]:“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. Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body, but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. 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. [1 Corinthians 6:15-20]”
He says here, if you join yourself with a harlot, it means that you have joined yourself with several others, because a harlot is one who sells her body to others, and so, it says, joining yourself to a harlot makes you one with others. So, your body becomes part of whatever that harlot has contracted. So, he says, you sin against your body by doing this. So, that’s the explanation for sin against…he didn’t say sin against his body like the body [the Church], he says sin against your physical body –you, your body.
The parameters for judging sin are two things – two key things in the Bible. The first one is love, the second one is faith. Now, in Romans Chapter 13, reading to you from verse 8: “Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.” Did you hear that? “He that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.”
Then it goes on to say this,“For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandments, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. [Romans 13:8-10]” That’s what the Bible says. So, anything that is outside love is sin. So, love is the fulfilling of the law. So, by walking in love, you walk in God.
Secondly, if you would go to Romans Chapter 14, verse number 23; let me read to you from verse 22, so you’ll get the right context: “Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth, not himself in that thing which he alloweth. [Romans 14:22]”
Are you hearing that? So, in the New Testament, it says, it’s not whether “What is this? Or what is that? How do I define this, or how do I define that?” He says it’s got to do with something here that he gives us. I’ll read it again but you’ll have to read the whole chapter for yourself to get the whole picture. He says “Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God” – let it be between you and God – “Happy is he that condemneth, not himself in that thing which he alloweth.[Verse 23] And he that doubteth is damned if he eats, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.”
He’s telling you that in faith towards God and in faith towards the Word of God, whatever you do, with which you do not condemn yourself, like in this case where he was giving [for example] eating food offered to idols.
He says, if you condemn yourself for it, then you have sinned.
He says, “happy is he that condemns not himself in that thing which he allows” – which he ‘does’. The one who doubts is damned; he’s condemned if he goes ahead because he is not doing it out of faith, because “whatsoever is not of faith is sin”. So, you want to understand sin in the New Testament? That’s exactly it.
Something, whatever is outside love or whatever is outside faith or whatever is outside both of them, because the Bible does say “Faith works by love. [Galatians 5:6]”
Then, two things are given to us as the causes of sin: the first one is selfishness and the second one is fear. Really, when you study the Bible, you’ll discover that selfishness is really the opposite of love and fear is the opposite of faith. See, why do people tell lies? Because they are afraid.
They’re afraid of what might happen if they told the truth. That’s why. Why do people steal? Because they’re selfish and they have no faith in God being able to provide for them; they’re afraid that they may never have and they’re selfish.
So, selfishness and fear are the causes of sin, and the parameters for judging sin are love and faith.
The PARAMETERS for JUDGING SIN ARE LOVE AND FAITH
Listening is a skill. It's hearing people at a depth where you understand the heart, the context and the logic of the person. Anything said can easily be misconstrued to serve an intended purpose or pre-conceived idea or bias.
Good listeners grow in leaps.

Thought of sharing this good news with my siblings.
So early last year one Grandma joined our church and she asked the ministers to come and blessed her new house her daughter bought for her
Two male pastors and l went after the church service, on getting there we sang and we started praying and I saw the woman sharing tears I was surprised cos I felt she was supposed to be happy.
So after the prayer I went to her and she told me that her daughter was trusting God for children for about 7yrs, we encouraged her and we left.
About a week or two weeks later I was praying @ home and suddenly I saw this vision of her daughter who came to visit her with her children I made the declaration and I called her and told her what God showed me and to have faith in God.
Before now she has done about two IVFs and all failed in UK where she resides.
Two months after she conceived,the mama went to join them in UK and she called for prayers once in a while.
Seven month she had serious contractions and there was panic everywhere and there was no bed available to admit her and then she called me and I told her to take her back home that that seed was of the Lord and it can't be aborted.
On getting home the contractions stopped and she later gave birth to 2 boys (Daniel and David)
They flew into Naija and came to my church for Thanksgiving on Sunday and they presented the children to me that the word of God in our mouth is Spirit and life. So amazing what God can do through us ,my heart was filled with joy
Even though its just the first day, I can say this is probably the most significant Pastors and Ministers Conference we've ever held.
The reason being that it is prophetically accurate. That which is presently in the heart of the Father for his church.
We have to return back to certain things.
Can we make this trend today?
JESUS is my NUMBER ONE...

PSALM 91 PERSONAL VERSION
VICTORIA ORENZE dwells in the secret place of the Most High
SHE abide under the shadow of THE ALMIGHTY. SHE says of THE LORD, HE is HER refuge and HER fortress: HER GOD; in HIM SHE trust. Surely HE shall deliver HER from the snare of the fowler, And from the noisome pestilence. HE shall cover HER with HIS feathers, and under HIS wings shall SHE trust: HIS truth shall be HER shield and buckler. SHE shall not be afraid for the terror by night; Nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; Nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at HER side, and ten thousand at HER right hand; But it shall not come nigh HER. Only with HER eyes shall SHE behold And see the reward of the wicked. Because SHE has made the LORD, which is HER refuge, Even the most High, HER habitation; There shall no evil befall HER Neither shall any plague come nigh HER dwelling. For HE shall give HIS angels charge over HER To keep HER in all HER ways. They shall bear HER up in their hands, Lest SHE dash HER foot against a stone. SHE shalt tread upon the lion and adder: The young lion and the dragon shall SHE trample under feet. Because SHE has set HER love upon GOD, therefore will I GOD deliver HER: I will set HER on high, because SHE knows HIS name.SHE shall call upon I GOD and I will answer HER : I will be with HER in trouble; I will deliver HER , and honour HER. With long life will I satisfy HER , And shew HER my salvation.”
AMEN HALLELUJAH!!!!!!!
