“Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law.” Galatians 4:3-4 KJV
We are in times of uncertainty. Evil is increasing and the best security apparatus can no longer guarantee man’s safety. A global health pandemic has left the world confused. Many things are happening and the hearts of many are failing them. But in the midst of these, it is time to stay focused on the fact that you belong to an unshakeable kingdom. We are no longer under bondage. Jesus has paid the supreme price and today we have absolute liberty in Him. However, you can only exercise this freedom and take all that belongs to you if you grow up.

“Now I say, that the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all” (Galatians 4:1 KJV). This scripture means that the blessing- the healing, breakthrough, etc are yours but you can’t touch it. You can’t access it. You are not yet qualified and ready.
Apostle Paul declares in 1 Corinthians 13:11: “When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things” (KJV). Beloved, you cannot access all that God has in store for you if you do not throw away childish things.

Maturity is not a function of age. Maturity is more than that. It is time you make up your mind not to think, ask and behave like a child anymore. Put off your childish ways. Put off the old man and his nature, embrace the new man after Christ and allow the Holy Spirit a free course in your life. It is time for you to assume a new unshakable level of commitment to the course and person of Christ. Take a decision today to arise and be all that the Lord has ordained for you to be.

“For thus saith the Lord of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; and I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the Lord of hosts.” Haggai 2:6-7 (KJV)
Today, it is no longer news that the world is in a cup of trembling. Everywhere you turn, you are confronted with so much hopelessness. The world is truly looking for answers. Science and the technocrats have failed. The health system is overwhelmed. The economic predictions have fallen to the ground and many are in utter confusion seeking for answers. However, this is the opportunity for the believer to shine brighter in a world that is getting darker. This is the finest hour for the church!
The book of Ephesians 3:10 declares: “To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God.” It is God’s intention that in the midst of all the confusion we see around us today, the church would manifest the many-sided wisdom of God and arise in glory.

Beloved, if God is today shaking all that can be shaken around us, what is that saying to you? I believe without any shadow of doubt in my heart that God is positioning you to show others the way. When men are confused and don’t know where to turn to, they have no choice but to turn to the church for answers. That is why believers must be solution providers to our world.

When the world turns to you, they must find answer. You have what it takes. So, take advantage of who you are in Christ Jesus because the world is looking up to you. Darkness as black as night will cover all the nations of the earth, but the glory of the Lord will shine over you. All nations will come to your light. Mighty kings will come to see your radiance.

“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.” Isaiah 60:1 (KJV)
Today, I’ve come to challenge you to wake up and arise from every form of limitation so that you can live your life to the fullest; move out of your comfort zone. Every human being on the face of this earth has a potential. There is a talent that you have. There is something that makes you unique and if that unique quality can be submitted in the hands of God, it will be a tool in God’s hands to impact your world.

My question today is: what has God placed in your life? What talent do you have? This is the time to bless your generation with your gift: “As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. If any man speaks, let him speak as the oracle of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion forever and ever. Amen” (1 Peter 4:10-11 KJV).
Esther followed Modecai’s advice whole-heartedly. And in the end, she attained a glorious position. To maximize your potential and live your life to the fullest, you must be accountable. There must be someone who can speak into your life- a spiritual covering over your life. Modecai instructed Esther and she obeyed. Today, her story is being read all over the world. Who is speaking into your life? You are not ordinary, but you need to be guided. Remember Paul and Timothy in the Bible? Timothy was able to fulfill purpose because there was a Paul to guide him and speak into His life.

Beloved, irrespective of what is happening around you, understand that you are not ordinary. You are called for a purpose and it is my prayer that you will fulfill this purpose and arrive at God’s ordained destiny. The devil will not cut you short.

Pastor Essa Ogorry of Fulfilling Word Foundation Church Dies Exactly One Year After His Wife’s Death.

The man of God went viral recently when he cancelled a wedding in Port-Harcourt, because the groom reportedly arrived late even though some say it was because the pastor had some health issues.

Meanwhile, his wife died on the 16th of February 2020. He died exactly same day a year after his wife’s death.

“And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Matthew 16:18 (KJV)

There is a major spiritual conspiracy to intimidate and box the church into a corner. You cannot dismantle the existing evil around us if your voice is silenced. The plan of the enemy is to have your mouth closed. The sons of the wicked are trying to tell you that it’s no more important to serve God. Child of God, you don’t want to come to a point where you are no longer able to talk. I wonder how you want to survive if you are now ashamed of your God. That’s what they want to do- to intimidate you. They want you to hide in the closet and hinder you. They don’t even want you to talk about this God.

What the Church carries is so important; it’s the only weapon that can destroy systems without carrying guns and the devil does not like it. One of the wrong messages from social media that is eroding the minds of church people is that the church is no longer important. They say you can do church in the house via your devices and pay offering through the media. This is a terrible lie from the pit of hell! The Bible encourages us not to forsake the assembly of ourselves together.

Something was trending in our nation recently: the issue about telling Christians to stop paying their tithes because preachers are taking their money. The fact that there are few charlatans around does not change the Bible. They are trying to silence preachers to the extent that when you are taking offerings, you are apologizing. It is a master strategy from Satan’s pit of hell so that the gospel can be silenced. They tell you not to obey the scriptures. Unfortunately, people who have been in church where the truths are being taught and who have been blessed by the Word of God are those that are trending this mess. Don’t listen to them!
