OUR MESSAGE FOR TODAY’S SUNDAY SERVICE ON 10/05/2014 IS: THE PRESENCE OF GOD THAT ANSWERS ALL THINGS:

OUR MESSAGE FOR TODAY’S SUNDAY SERVICE ON 10/05/2014 IS: SUBJECT: THE MANIFOLD PRESENCE OF GOD WITH US TOPIC: THE PRESENCE OF GOD THAT ANSWERS ALL THINGS DATE: SUNDAY OCTOBER 5, 2014 READING SCRIPTURES: PSALM 73:1-28 (NIV) THE MANIFOLD PRESENCE OF GOD ANSWERS ALL THINGS: 1. One of the pre-requisite to walk in the presence of God is to have a clean and pure heart. God cannot dwell in a heart that is dirty, polluted and full of garbage’s, a pure heart welcomes and receives the presence of God. With a pure heart you will live a victorious life and access the blessings of the heavenly places. When you are pure in heart, God and humans will be good to you and celebrate you at all times. See verses 1-2. 2. In our present day generation, the false prosperity of the unbelievers get the so called elect of God carried away because of the alignment of the sufferings of Jesus which we must all partake in as we walk in his presence, we must not be carried away because of the temporary sufferings, because we have the permanent freedom and liberty awaiting us both on earth and in heaven, do not envy the unrighteous and lined up with them and lost Gods presence and enjoy temporary freedom on earth and permanent sufferings till eternity. See verses 3-9 3. Listen I want you to know that there is nothing hidden under the sun that God will not know, He knows those who love him and do his will, and those who love him with lips service and do secret things believing that nobody is there and that God will not see them eating and drinking the accursed things with the unrighteous. I tell you that such persons cannot inherit the Kingdom of God or partake in the blessings of the manifold presence of God. See verses 10-16 4. It is very important to separate the real things from the chaff, and it is also important to differentiate between those walking in the presence of God, promoting Gods kingdom and those walking in the world and celebrating the kingdom of darkness. Be informed that there are two kingdoms; the kingdom of light with God and that of darkness with Satan, it is your choice to decide the one you will belong to either the kingdom of darkness and end up in the hell fire or the kingdom of God and walk in his presence with all the benefits attached including divine health, longevity and prosperity because you are a child of destiny. See verses 17-20. 5. There are factors and behaviours that distinguish those who walk in the presence of God and hereby are some of them: they go through what others go through but they do not allow it to weigh them down. They walk in the fruits of the Holy Spirit like patient, kind, longsuffering, be at peace with all men, self-control, gentle, humble, trustworthy, love unconditionally, faithful at all times etc. See verses 21-28 6. Finally please hear the words of the psalmist King David in his presence with God: When my heart was grieve and my spirit embittered, I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before you. Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. Who have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Those who are far from you will perish; you destroy all who are unfaithful to you. But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Sovereign LORD my refuge; I will tell of all your deeds. 7. My prayer for you today is to receive the Anointing power to remain in the manifold presence of God all the days of your life and till eternity in Jesus name Amen. Psalm 73:1-28New International Version (NIV) 1 Surely God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart. 2 But as for me, my feet had almost slipped; I had nearly lost my foothold 3 For I envied the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. 4 They have no struggles; their bodies are healthy and strong. 5 They are free from common human burdens; they are not plagued by human ills. 6 Therefore pride is their necklace; they clothe themselves with violence. 7 From their callous hearts comes iniquity[b]; their evil imaginations have no limits. 8 They scoff, and speak with malice; with arrogance they threaten oppression. 9 Their mouths lay claim to heaven, and their tongues take possession of the earth. 10 Therefore their people turn to them and drink up waters in abundance.[c] 11 They say, “How would God know? Does the Most High know anything?” 12 This is what the wicked are like— always free of care, they go on amassing wealth. 13 Surely in vain I have kept my heart pure and have washed my hands in innocence. 14 All day long I have been afflicted, and every morning brings new punishments. 15 If I had spoken out like that, I would have betrayed your children. 16 When I tried to understand all this it troubled me deeply 17 till I entered the sanctuary of God; then I understood their final destiny. 18 Surely you place them on slippery ground; you cast them down to ruin. 19 How suddenly are they destroyed, completely swept away by terrors! 20 They are like a dream when one awakes; when you arise, Lord, you will despise them as fantasies. 21 When my heart was grieve and my spirit embittered, 22 I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before you. 23 Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. 24 You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. 25 Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. 26 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. 27 Those who are far from you will perish; you destroy all who are unfaithful to you. 28 But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Sovereign LORD my refuge; I will tell of all your deeds.
