CONVERT YOUR ANGER INTO VICTORIOUS POWER BY THE HOLY SPIRIT

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi
       John 11:38-39 NKJV” Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it. Jesus said, "Take away the stone."
       The Greek word that is translated "groaning" is the word 
‘Embrimaomai’  which means - to snort with anger;sigh with chagrin; to have indignation on or to blame .It also means to straightly charge or murmur against. These adverbs expressed Jesus’ state of mind as he confronted the powers that held Lazarus bound in the grave and that's the same way he feels about your situation . Faith working by love for God is all that is needed for miracles to take place. Attributing a misfortune to God;s punishment closes the door on faith for the miraculous. It is a demonstration of doubt .Our unbelief gives Satan the advantage over us and this was why Jesus groaned    
      The bible also speaks of groaning in the Holy Ghost which also means to groan while praying inaudibly by the Holy Spirit. There are moments when you could be overwhelmed by crisis or had an inexplicable spiritual encounter like the case of a complicated dream or series of catastrophic events and just could not find the right words to pray:this is described in Rom 8:26-27” And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don't know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words”.
   Under such circumstances praying in the Holy Ghost is an added advantage for the born again Christian. The Holy Ghost translates the anger you have about the situation in to an ecstatic outburst of faith- filled inaudible prayer ; it has the capacity to raise the dead like in the case of Lazarus. If you noticed Jesus’ prayer at the graveside: John 11:41-42 NKJV "Father, I thank You that You have heard Me” no record was made about His prayer for Lazarus, He started with thanksgiving haven groaned in the spirit. Death had no option but to let Lazarus free. Those who groan often in the Spirit don’t need to pray lengthy prayers for the miraculous to take place.
      Whenever we groan in the spirit, our faith is charged up like you would charge a battery and when fully charged, miracles are inevitable. While groaning, our spirit is on full alert to receive valuable  information for breakthrough while the Holy Ghost dismantles the forces of darkness on our behalf.This is one of the benefits of being baptized in the Holy Ghost(Acts.1:8,Acts2:4,Luke11:13)
        Though the act of groaning has being abused by some religious folks through audible irritating noise during prayer meetings contrary to what the bible teaches , we shouldn’t allow the activities of a misguided few deprive us of this life -changing experience in the Holy Ghost. It is your secret weapon to unprecedented increase and influence as the scriptures says in Jude 1:20 AMP “But you, beloved, build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy faith [make progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], praying in the Holy Spirit;” We should asked to be filled with the Holy Spirit and power to declare God's righteous counsel (Acts 1:8, Luke 11:13, Acts 2:4).  As you receive Jesus Christ as lord and saviour and read this now, receive power to overcome  stubborn oppositions in Jesus name.

BREAK EVIL FAMILY PATTERNS

Image
 By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi  Titus 1:12 -14 "One of themselves,   even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians   are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.  This  witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply,  that they may be sound in the faith;  Not giving  heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of  men, that turn from the truth."       The church in Crete was in disarray and the apostle assigned Titus to go and put things in order . On investigation it was discovered the church suffered from a vicious cycle of evil family  patterns. They were not enjoying the fruits of the salvation experience . An example of evil family patterns is that of King David who defiled Uriah's wife ,murdered him and his son Absalom murdered his brother Amnon (2Sam13) dethroned him and defiled his concubines openly (2Samuel16). His son Amnon defiled his sister Tamar (2Sam.13) and so on yet David was the anointed of the Lord.     Many christians suffer evil family patterns ( repeated d

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi " Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters. Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God." Hebrews 3:12 NLTBible  ' Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”John 20:27 NLTBible     Faith is the guarantee of the manifestation an unseen reality . It is the reason behind the hope we have in God and the fulfilment of his promises. It is the substance ( title deed) of things hoped for ,the evidence of things not seen (Hebrew 11:1) .The Bible warns against not having faith in God. Lack of faith is equal to calling God a liar and untrustworthy. This type of reasoning turns us into enemy's of God.    The gospel is so much under attack by the activities of faithless religionists . They plan to replace the holy scripture with humanistic dogma. The danger in this is the relative approach t

COMMON CAUSES OF DISUNITY.

Image
 By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi "Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following."Acts 20:30 NLT   "An angry person starts fights; a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin." Proverbs 29:22 NLTBible        Disunity is defined as : disagreement and conflict within a group. It is the greatest hindrance to the promotion of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Disunity creates an avenue for Satan to promote sin.       The causes of disunity are not farfetched ,they include : Unhealthy Crave for power or self- promotion. Whenever there is an unhealthy pursuit of influence in a family or group it results in resistance. Self-promotion gives birth to unfair practices and injustices. In Numbers 12: 1-15  Moses' sister Miriam and Aaron rebelled against him desiring to rule by force and in Numbers 16 :1-35 Korah led an insurrection against Moses desiring to be part of leadership. In both cases ,God was not pleased with the rebels
