For it is a Sunday with a difference. There is authority in this Sunday; it is a Sunday that is also in the spirit and a day of much manna. It is the day of the Lord and of the bringing forth of my bread and manna so that you will have to partake of that which I will dispense unto you that you also may come into our authority and wellness. There is a wellness that must come; that you must experience, that is what we bring to you today. It’s not an ordinary Sunday because the sun is shining its light upon you that you also may bear our name in this season. We have brought bread for you to eat and be fulfilled to be strengthen to walk in the journey ahead of you. Stop trusting in your strength, hold unto my strength instead.
You, see that you get to the end of your strength. You can trust me to help you because I have come to help you in these days. I have determined to show myself in and to you as strength; take me as strength for indeed I am strength. Partake of me, fellowship with me and have strength. Come and partake of me and go with strength. You don’t have to be weary for I am strength and yes, I have brought you strength for I have chosen to bring you into the space where you do not fail, where your youth is renewed; into the womb of the morning. I have chosen to bring you there to sit with me. For in this day I will take up a laughter over the nations of the earth and Nigeria for they that have embraced my wisdom. You will hear a laughter, it will ring loud in the north, south, west and east of Nigeria. It is a laughter against them that have not delighted in my strength. You can partake of they that laugh in my strength. I have come to you early, because shortly after now, I will laugh for my intention will be accomplished against my enemy and they that hate me. But you will be strong, for I have brought life, grace and understanding. I am that I am, I am is the learning, strength, victory. Receive I am and you will be victorious and not fail in the days ahead of you. If you will partake of the strength which I am bringing to the body, you will be strong. In the days ahead of you many will faint because they have not partaken of I am. I am is the victory and meaning. The remaining of what the enemy is doing is to bring forth I am. I am in the confusion and darkness, look well for I am there. Partake of I am, of the bread and wine and your face will glow by the oil. I Am has come to strengthen the Church. I Am has come, yea today I Am has come to body of Christ in Nigeria and as many that lean on my mercy and faithfulness will scale through. That I am has come. Listen and you will understand; wait and it will be clear. The vision will become clearer. I have chosen to illuminate heart and bring strength. Draw strength for I am, I am has come.
Luke 24:30-31
And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.
And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.
The emphasis of the New Testament is opening of eyes. The essence of the bread is to open our eyes. God doesn’t rush to bring his things, but he prepares us gradually until his things flow to us. You cannot know until you follow; knowing is by followership. Stop moving about but rest in the one who is the ‘I Am’.
Acts 15:13
And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me:
Prophecy is preaching and declaration of God’s intent. We all prophesy but in various degrees. God brings prophecy to encourage and guide us in the line of his thought. God says and does so many things to say and do just one thing. God does so not because he is bereft of ideas, but because he is working from the answer. He works it step by step. You cannot know Christ if they do not work it out. God knows his works from the beginning but we don’t know it and in an attempt to show us his works, he begins to work it out.
Abraham knew God as the Lord God Almighty. The belief he exited in God, granted him the platform of righteousness of Christ. Moses knew Him as Jehovah. God worked out various things until he came to a point where he showed us his son whom he appointed heirs of all things. Hebrews 2. God is set to build the tabernacle of David, which is not a physical one. What God is doing is not about men but about Him, which involves the whole world and not only the gentile or Jews. 1 Corinthians 10:32. The Church is where the natural identities of Jews and Gentiles dissolve and they take on the identity of Christ.
In a bid for men to understand this, God took on so many shapes. From the foundation of the world, the slain lamb was the answer. Jesus’ eventual death was showing what had been done in time past. Prophetic people are those living within the boundary of God’s eternal plans and purpose and are following as it is being revealed. Christ is a river that flowed through Genesis to Revelation. The river parted in four ways in Genesis but became one by the time it got to Revelation. He flowed through various heads and people in various cities until it became one river again in Revelation. Psalms 46:4.
Prophetic people understand divine counsel that has been predetermined. When God is doing a new thing is not really new but that which he had intended to do before the world began. They are people who after his mind and counsel and are following his intentions. God is always moving, whatever you have now is not all of Him. He is always coming to move men further; to advance them from the answer. God is never confused, man is. Acts 15:18; Daniel 9:32. Whosoever was not in the midst of the 70 weeks was out of God’s plan. Daniel 12. That many run to and fro and increase in knowledge, does not change the course of God that was written in the book. God is interested in what is in the book.
It was not men that killed Jesus but God; he did so as part of the intention and determinate counsel, which was written in the book. Focus on the purpose of the death of Jesus. Acts 2:22-23, 4:28. Everything that happened in the life of Jesus was part of the plan. Ephesians 2:10: Good works is not anything we know in the natural.
You are coming there; you are very close to that place of our oath which is the end of all strife. We want to end strives, contentions and fights in the place of submission that you may come to the place of oath where turning is possible. You won’t come there until we have wrought this work that we have started already and we won’t stop until we’ve conquered every strife, rebellion and disobedience in you, so that you can stay and hold with us and we can trust you. We want to raise trustees of our life on the earth so that as long as you are in the world you are our light. We will conquer strife and contention that want to hinder you from being truthful even when you want to. We will bring down variation so that we can trust you with our life and that you can be our representation on earth. We will not stop until we have raised many through the word of our oath that we are sending. Keep the word of the oath so that you may come to the place of the oath where you can no longer return.
The words of oath raised the Son which is what they used to seal us. God has predetermined intention and he is working towards it. He will not start what he won’t finish; whatever you see god do are those things he had finished before starting. God will not do anything against his will. It is his will that counsels him. Isaiah 46:10. We need to know and come to the place of the Will so that we will come to the place of Sonship and oath and reign with him.
God’s primary Will is that salvation will come to the earth. The Church is the living entity of Christ upon the earth. Isaiah 46:13, ‘I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.’ Israel in this scripture is not physical but the Church. The Church is the Glory of God on the earth where he has paced his agenda of salvation and raising people up to the stature of Christ, we must be concerned about fulfilling this agenda.
There were prophetic happenings and events in the scripture that are very significant. The journey of the children of Israel from Egypt to the Promised Land is significant. Egypt stands for the world; the wilderness stands for the learning of Faith and Christ; Gilgal stands for when God was moving them to another economy, before they move to the Promised Land. This story is the picture of our journey. The generations that were before that of Jesus were 14 generations in multiple of three. The feast of tabernacle is the perfection of Christ in us. This feast is part of the journey in God that many priests have been raised by. The coming of the Holy Ghost is part of the determinate counsel that he will come on the day of Pentecost which will celebrated with the feast of wine.
Walking in the Spirit is climbing steps up to God and the ladder is Jesus. The temple is Christ; it is Jesus lying down. Ephesians 4:16’ ‘From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love. And as we move from the outer court, we move to the end. Christ is everything that was in the Tabernacle including the ark and its content, the shew bread, and the candlestick. What drives prophecy is the Spirit of Jesus; the only thing we declare is Jesus and the Testimony.
The ark is like our souls; it must be overlaid with gold. If Christ can get to our hearts, everything we do will be right. The two tablets in the ark are no longer stones but hearts. 2 Corinthians 3. God collapsed the Ten Commandments into one ‘Love’; the bedrock of the Law of Moses is love. It is not about loving your neighbor as yourself but as Christ loved you; this is a higher love devoid of self. The manna in the ark means we will be ushered into realms of God that men can never know. As we grow in Christ and receive his materials, we are being granted access in the Spirit until we get to the final point where we can meet face to face with God and dine with him. The rod of Aaron that budded signifies righteousness. These physical things in the temple have spiritual representations.
Acts 3:19-20
Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
The real message is the preaching of Eternal Life. The actual thing in God’s mind when he sent Jesus is that Jesus should show forth the Life that was in God. Jesus did this using miracles and signs so that the ground may be prepared for them to receive the preaching of Christ which is the real intention. We have Eternal Life in a measure; no one knows its content and unfolding except God himself shows it. Eternal life is to know Jesus whom God has sent. John 17:3. When we come to God he doesn’t show us that knowledge until we believe. At the beginning, faith and not knowledge was involved for us to be saved. Romans 10:10. Philippians 3:10 shows that Apostle Paul also did not have knowledge but believed to receive salvation. However, after being saved we need knowledge; because the Faith requires knowledge.
John 20:30-31
And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:
But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.
We will have Life through his name when we believe by knowledge; to know what and who is Christ; Eternal Life. 1 Timothy 2:4. The knowledge of Truth is Eternal Life- the message: 1 John 1:5. For us to have Eternal Life, we must know the Son. This should dominate the discourse in churches. The purpose of the Church is to make Christ known, to teach Him. Ephesians 4:11-13. Apostles are governors of Eternal Life; Prophets guide; Evangelists gather; Pastors groom people for life and Teachers guard the teaching and doctrines of Christ so that they would not be tossed here and there. God is not looking at what we have in the natural but to what end we are making use of it.
Isaiah 2:3
And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
It is the message of Eternal Life that goes forth from Zion. The only way to know the true God is by the teaching of Eternal Life. Israel, which is a representative of the Church, must know Christ. God does not say any other thing, but Christ; this also should be our message, Jesus is the Christ.
May our hearts be helped to understand this message of Eternal Life. Amen!
