YOUR ROD OF DESTINY

And the Lord said unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he said, A rod.  And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from before it. {Exodus 4:2}

The richest gold field in the world used to belong to a family;

the father died and handed over the gold field to the son.

The son did not know that that farmland, under it was practically gold. So the son began to farm on this land but he notice that the crops were not

germinating well. He then sold the land for 60,000 dollars.  It took the new owner only 1 week to discover that the land had gold inside of it, yet the person who inherited it did not know; what a pity.

It is a tragedy when you have a valuable thing and you do not know.

When the purpose is not known, then abuse is inevitable

God ask mosses a question; what is in your hands?

Moses never realize the spiritual value of the shepherd rod that  he always carry about. It was until God asked hime that question that he realized that it was not an ordinary rod; It was not just a shepherd stick, it was not just a piece of stick.

ü That rod was not just a mere rod but was an instrument of power

ü  That rod is an instrument of uncommon breakthrough

ü  That Rod was going to be the instrument that will write the name of Moses boldly on the history of life.

ü  That Rod was going to be an instrument that will re-write his family history

But! Unfortunately, Moses never knew.

There are many people today; You! yes, you;

ü You were ordained to be a multimillionaire.

ü You are supposed to rewrite your family history

ü You are supposed to move mountains for Jesus

ü You are supposed be in a position where enemy cannot touch you

There is something in your hands; maybe you might not know it.

Moses  never knew; He would just fling the rod around; he never knew it was his rod of relevance.

I pray:

May You Never lose the Rod of your Relevance

Illustration Story

This story is just for illustration example. One day, one boy called Mike Tyson met a man called Costantino "Cus" D'Amato; who opened the potentials inside of him.

If Mike Tyson had not met this man, he would have though his hands are just for eating food and writing. There is no way he would have known that those hands would have not only feed but also announce his name. He would have rotted in the prison; because he was actually discovered in the prison.

I pray for you, as you enter into the new year:

Ø     May you not stay in the prison that will kill your destiny in the name of Jesus

Ø     May the lord silence your Silencers in the name of Jesus

What are the Silencers?

As the generator and car has something called the silencer; which silence the machine from been heard; you also have some spiritual powers called the “Silencers”

This powers are the ones that:

o  Silences glory

o  Silences destiny

o  Silences businesses

I pray for you:

May your destiny helpers manifest at the right time in the name of Jesus

We heard of the testimony the last time, where a woman was kidnapped. Some couple saw the woman beside the road and the husband was going to drive off, but the wife of the man was her destiny; she manifested at the right time. She also saw that that woman was rescued, even when the husband was not in support; he was scared that should in case the woman died, they would have been implicated. Thank God the woman was rescued.

Your Helpers shall manifest at the right time and help you; no matter the circumstances, in the name of Jesus.

You have heard of the boy they called Pele;

if Pele had not discovered his legs, might have died without been known.

He would have thought the legs was just to carry him around.

There is something in your hand;

It may be:

ü An idea

ü A Skill

ü A Talent

ü Your Good Memory

ü Planning

ü A particular certificate

Your Rod of destiny can be anything.

If you do not discover this rod and encounter the God that will energize your Rod;

If You don’t get to the level where God ask you that question: What is in your hands?

David did not use a sword to kill Goliath; he used what he had; he used what he knew how to use: the sling and stone.

Such had not happened before; no one has ever defeated a giant with a sling and stone. David was a pacesetter.

I pray for you:

May your Rod manifest I your hands in the name of Jesus

May your Rod announce you for celebration in the name of Jesus

Prayer Points

   1.   Where is my Rod! Manifest by fire in the name of Jesus.

   2.   My Stolen Rod! Manifest by fire in the name of Jesus.

Prayer To Confront the New Year

We need to pray and confront the year with prayers.

There year is a mysterious one and we have to deal with it as so.

In those days, the apostles were confronted with some threatening power; that is the reason they said; O, Lord, behold their threatening . . . {Acts 4:29}

There are threaten powers that confronts us on a daily basis

Sickness, Peace of the mind, our success

The son of man was made manifest to destroy the works of darkness

   1.   Wicked Powers threaten my joy; die in the name of Jesus.

   2.   Negative travelers! pursuing the journey of my life, die in the name of Jesus.

We speak against every stranger in your body; He said in his word; strangers shall be afraid and run out of their closed places {Psalm 18:45}

Every negative material in your body; that witchcraft arrow come out in the name of Jesus.

Every Organ that is not working well in your body, receive life by the power in the blood of Jesus.

I Decree; The enemy that pursued you from January till December and refuse to repent, I command them to die in the name of Jesus

IF THE ENEMY HAS STOLEN FROM YOU; RECOVERY IS BY FORCE; STOP THEM BEFORE THEY STOP YOU. GOD BLESS YOU.

Word: The Smart Players

The smart Players

Many people want to serve God on their own terms.

Many are operating on selective obedience.

Many people are sitting on the fence where they can fall into any team.

Many don’t want to be ascribed has been too serious for the kingdom.

The Truth is:

·      There is no middle line in the game of life.

·      You are either completely with God or with Satan

·      If you have not been called a fanatic for God, then you have not started.

·      You cannot play games with the devil and win because he is far more intelligent than you (thousands of years older than you are)

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold all things are become new. {2 Cor 5:17}

When you become a child of God, then it is Compulsorythat everything about you change.

Characteristics of a Child of God:

Ø The person changes in Lifestyle

Ø The person changes in Character

Ø The person changes in Dressing

Ø The person changes in speech

Ø The person changes in actions

Ø Some of your friends will even change

If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. {John 15:19}

There are a lot of people today that claim they worship and serve God.

These  people may be fervent and very active in churches and other place of worship.

This same people:

Operate selective obedience to God

Unbiblical Dressing

Can you show me in the bible where children of God were displaying their cleavages.

They now put pendant in the middle of their breast (cleavages)

You have a lot of ladies now show off their laps because they need to show the tattoo on their laps.

Now they put tattoo on their breast.

You still claim you are a child of God.

We do not deny these facts;

ü The fact that God loves you.

ü He cherish you.

ü God honors the day you came to him on the altar.

ü God honors the tears of Repentance.

But Do you think God is happy about these facts?

You have not distinguished yourself from the world: There is almost no difference between a Christian and an unbeliever in dressing. Meanwhile a believer should be different in Character, Appearance

Please, I plead with you, if you are not experiencing these changes in your life;

ü regardless of what some churches preach,

ü regardless of what you think,

ü regardless of the encouragement you get from people,

ü regardless of what you conviction is, then;

You Need to do a Re-Check on your Faith.

Why Should You Re-Check Your Life?

v God is not the author of Confusion:

God will not institute salvation and also counter it by supporting the kind of lifestyle that will bring confusion to other people.

When some people enter the church, you sense distractions everywhere; that is not the plan of God.

Some sisters’ blame guys for not minding their business; you won’t really blame some poor men they are not spiritually matured.

It is not everybody that comes to church that have grown spiritually; they have come into the church to seek the spiritual growth which they require but unfortunately their growth is truncated by some fashion-freak sisters.

These men might even have their wives beside them inside church; they would have been so confused that they begin to use their eyes to undress the not-too-covered sisters!

What is the original cause? Answer for yourself!

v God is not a destroyer of souls

As many souls are perishing, backsliding and falling as a result of this kind of dressing. This is ultimately leading them to the path of destruction.

v The name of God is been tarnished

This kind of dressing does not glorify God; you will see unbelievers saying; “and she calls herself a Christian”, “And she is coming from Church”

v We are setting a bad foundation for the generation to come

In this fast era of dressing evolution, everyone wants to dress like the

whites; Many consciously or unconsciously, whether they agree or not, wants to be like Riha.. Beyonc.. and so on. You might not agree to this or do this intentionally but your dressing is almost like theirs.

Almost means; It is not the same yet, but can be improved on to be same and even better than that.

Every new generation is most likely to improve and beat the old generation in every ramification including fashion.

What will be the fate of our little baby girl,

the small girl you are now been exposing to this kind of dressing.

The young girl you have been training with body revealing clothes.

The young girl you are building up to a dress freak like you.

It is certain that God is not Happy

Bible says; Flee from every appearances of evil.

This is a foundation of evil which we must crush before it becomes evil and ultimately turns to a monster.

v God does not Change

The Men of those days were able to work with God through consecration of themselves.

God is not after fashion but after the soul of men and He has not change and will never change. I pray you do not change from God’s standard till He comes.

Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.{Philippians 2:12}

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. {Galatians 6:7}

You cannot be at the table of God and also be dinning with the Devil.

We will continue this message some other time.

This is a sharp warning that came through the holy spirit.

God is really not happy with the representation of his children in this world.

It’s in your hands.

Make your creator and the creator of the universe happy.

God bless you as you heed to this warning.
