OUR MESSAGE FOR TODAY'S SUNDAY WORSHIP IS THE FULLNESS OF JOY IN GODS PRESENCE:

OUR MESSAGE FOR TODAY'S SUNDAY WORSHIP IS: SUBJECT: THE FULLNESS OF JOY IN GODS PRESENCE TOPIC: THE KINGDOM WISDOM FOR FULLNESS OF JOY DATE: SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 28, 2014 READING SCRIPTURES: MATTHEW 25:1- 46 (NIV) THE FULLNESS OF JOY IN GODS PRESENCE: 1. This message today will revive, transform, heal, and bless you with the fullness of joy in Gods presence, only if you will put in practice what you will receive today. The three parables here are words of wisdom for us all from the Lord. We are all familiar with the parables of the wise and foolish virgins, but something distinguished the wise ones: they carried extra oil, they watched and slept not, they walked in the wisdom of God. That which distinguished them you need for the fullness of joy in Gods presence. See verses 1-12 2. I want to counsel those of you that will be hearing this message today or receiving it from our Social media networks, to please keep watch for you know not the day or hour that the Lord will visit you for your joy to be full and his presence to go with you where ever you go for the fulfilment of your purpose on earth. Take the parables of the bags of gold that was given to three servants by their master who entrusted his wealth on them, to test their abilities to manage greater responsibilities so that they can be blessed and inherit the fullness of Joy in God that comes with his presence. Two out of the three excelled and were blessed but one hid his on the ground as many folks do today wishing others that love them evil because of ignorant and foolishness. I challenge you today to do whatever you are asked do in life well to please God and Man for your reward is from your father in heaven and humanity on earth. See verses 13-23 3. Please take note of the following words that hinders fullness of Joy of Gods presence with his children and do everything to avoid them to be accomplished in life. The case study here is the one that was given one bag of gold. He said to his master: He said his master is a hard man, harvesting where he did not sow, for that reason fear came upon him not to loose the bag of gold in business and he buried it on the ground. For those of you who walk in fear and not in faith, be careful because fear is torment, hinders, delays, steals your joy, make you look stupid, fail in life, and worthless. Walk in faith and be bold. See verses 24-30. 4. I will appreciate it if you will differentiate between a Sheep and a Goat, the wisdom to understand the difference between the two will help you in life to inherit the fullness of Joy in Gods presence.When the son of Man Jesus will come again, he will separate the two, and the sheep will be on his right hand and the goats will be on his left, those that are on the right will reign with Jesus in his fathers kingdom and those on the left will be doomed in the lake of fire with Satan. So where would you like to be, the clock is tickling, you still have the time to take a wise decision now for your joy to be full till eternity. See verses 31-40 5. What does it take to be on the right hand of Jesus for your joy to be full in Gods presence? You are blessed and have an inheritance in the Kingdom of God because: you saw somebody naked and clothed him, saw somebody thirsty and gave him something to drink, saw somebody helpless and helped him, saw somebody sick and treated him, saw a stranger and invited him into your home, saw those in prison and visited them to encourage them to be strong in the Lord, because not all in prison are guilty even the guilty needs word of repentance to change. When you do this, your joy will be full. .See verses 41 - 43 6. The act of greed, selfishness, evil minded, unrepentant, pride, and ignorance has sent so many people to hell where people weep and gnash their teeth. They said to Jesus when did we see you thirsty, hungry, as a stranger and did not give you something to drink, eat or invite you in? He said to them whatever you did not do for one of the least of these; you did not do for me. I want you to know that the place of the wicked is eternal punishment and the place of the righteous is eternal life, where their Joy will be full in the presence of God. See verses 12-15 7. My prayer for you today is to receive the Anointing power to walk in the fullness of Joy in Gods presence and live a righteous life, to see your fellow human as yourself in Jesus name Amen. Read below: Matthew 25:1-46 New International Version (NIV) The Parable of the Ten Virgins 25 “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4 The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep. 6 “At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’ 7 “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’ 9 “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’ 10 “But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut. 11 “Later the others also came. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they said, ‘open the door for us!’ 12 “But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I don’t know you.’ 13 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour. The Parable of the Bags of Gold 14 “Again, it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his wealth to them. 15 To one he gave five bags of gold, to another two bags, and to another one bag,[a] each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey. 16 The man who had received five bags of gold went at once and put his money to work and gained five bags more. 17 So also, the one with two bags of gold gained two more. 18 But the man who had received one bag went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money. 19 “After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. 20 The man who had received five bags of gold brought the other five. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with five bags of gold. See, I have gained five more.’ 21 “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’ 22 “The man with two bags of gold also came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with two bags of gold; see, I have gained two more.’ 23 “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’ 24 “Then the man who had received one bag of gold came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25 So I was afraid and went out and hid your gold in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.’ 26 “His master replied, ‘You wicked, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed? 27 Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest. 28 “‘So take the bag of gold from him and give it to the one who has ten bags. 29 For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. 30 And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’ The Sheep and the Goats 31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. 34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ 37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’ 40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ 41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’ 44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’ 45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’ 46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.” Watch out for our SEPTEMBER 2014 daily words of Exhortations on EMPOWERMENT FOR CELEBRATIONS OF THE MYSTERIES OF GOD IN OUR LIVES" TOMORROW SEPTEMBER 29, 2014.
