SPEAK YOUR WAY OUT OF LACK AND INTO ABUNDANCE

By Rev Michael  Benson Ajayi
       Gen 22:8,13 KJV " And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.... And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son."
        Abraham demonstrated the most audacious act of faith by attempting to slay his son in obedience to God's voice and when asked by his son Isaac about the sacrificial ram his answer was profound "God will provide himself ". This statement was an indication that he understood , that God didn't  just want to provide things for us rather He wants to give himself to us. Once you have Him , you have everything. This is what Jesus meant when He said "seek ye first the kingdom"(Matt6:33)
        Seeking the kingdom requires aligning yourself with God and that gives you access to the creative power in the spoken word (John1:3, Heb.1:3).By exercising this power a ram was provided which Abraham sacrificed in lieu of his son Isaac. Abraham was sure that God wasn't going to allow him kill his son.
       A lot of people have suffered painful losses in the name of sacrificial giving to God because they failed to understand the principle of confession borne out of conviction accompanying one's giving. The scriptures says in Hebrews 10.23 "Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) "The word 'profession ' is the Greek word "homologeo" meaning to acknowledge  ownership by confession and giving of thanks . This is why daily meditation of scriptures is important. This is what is meant by 'sowing bountifully' in 2Cor.9:6 ,The word bountifully is a Greek compound word 'epi eulogia' meaning 'superimposition by fine speaking'. Our conditions become favourable like Prophet Abraham's through our confessions of faith.
      Confess  "I shall flourish like the palm tree"(Ps 92:12-14) I am waxing stronger and producing fruit , i will thrive in famine,i am succeeding and prospering, i am not moved by circumstance , i am a world changer, i am blessed and not cursed.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....

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 wa...

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

Image
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...
