OUR MESSAGE FOR TODAY’S SUNDAY SERVICE ON 10/26/2014 IS: SUBJECT: DIVINE POWER TO RULE TILL ETERNITY TOPIC: THE SIGNIFICANCE OF JESUS TRANSFIGURATION ON THE MOUNT DATE: SUNDAY OCTOBER 26, 2014 READING SCRIPTURES: MATTHEW 17:1-27 (NKJV) THE SIGNIFICANCE OF JESUS TRANSFIGURATION ON THE MOUNT AND THE AUTHORITY GIVEN TO US TO RULE: 1. The significance of Jesus transfiguration at the Mount, where he went with Peter James and John is evidence that he has the power to rule both on earth and in heaven and can give same to whosoever that calls upon his name. This encounter with heaven teaches us that the power of life and authority is also in his hands. The appearance of Moses and Elijah to him right there with the voice from the sovereign God is another evidence of divine power to rule. See verses 1-4 2. Permit me to ask those of you out there, if you want to rule on earth and also inherit the Kingdom of God? If yes, you need to fulfill the requirements from God the father at the mount of transfiguration, unquote “This is my beloved son in him I am well pleased. Hear him!”. You need to hear from Jesus, do his will, and worship his father in heaven so as to receive the power to rule till eternity. See verses 5-9 3. Some Christians are still waiting for Elijah’s second coming today, because of the way he was taken up to heaven with the Chariots of heaven, without him seeing death neither his body. According to prophecy, the Jews believed that he will come again to complete his works, because he walked in so much power, commanded the supernatural, and ruled on earth to the extent that death could not hold him to captive. When he came the second time to prepare the way for Jesus, the evil world did to him what they wished, but unfortunately for them he has completed his assignments on earth and also ruled to prepare the way for the Messiah to redeem the whole world. Have you completed your assignment on earth? Do you rule as you are here on earth? Think about it today. See verses 10-13 4. Lets talk about some of the signs or prove that one can see as evidence to validate Gods power that you rule while on earth: a) You must walk in faith and command situations of life, b) You must speak the word to anything and it will obey you, c) You will cast out demons of infirmities and diseases and they will live the bodies of who ever they are holding in captivity just like Jesus did to the epileptic son of the man who asked him to heal the son and he was healed. d) You must be in control of all things at all times, e) You must not walk in unbelief, f) You must destroy the spirit of doubts and speak to any kind of mountains of life to move to yonder as Jesus commanded and it will obey you, f) You must apply prayer and fasting to walk in this supernatural power to rule. See verses 14-21. 5. Another very important gift which comes from God that you must have, that will proves that you rule on earth is to be able to predict the future, see things in advance and speak it out before it happens. Jesus proved this beyond every reasonable doubt when he predicted his death and that he will resurrect on the third day, and will ascend into heaven to sit at the right hand of the father. All came to pass because he ruled on earth and commanded you and me to do same. Do you rule in your home, job, business, career, lands? See verses 20-23 6. It was always exciting to be with Jesus while on earth, because each time you spent with him, you have something new to learn, lets talk a little bit about paying of taxes as it should be Biblically. Jesus asked Peter from who do the kings of the earth take customs or taxes, from their sons or from strangers?” Peter said to Him, “From strangers.” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are free. Nevertheless, lest we offend them, go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you have opened its mouth, you will find a piece of money;[h]take that and give it to them for Me and you.” You can see that he ruled over the seas and the fishes in the sea, what stops you from ruling on earth like your father in heaven and his son Jesus. Begin to rule from today. See verses 24-27 7. My prayer for you today is to receive the Anointing power to rule, command the supernatural’s and be in control of all situations before you to excel, and fulfil your purpose in life in Jesus name Amen. Matthew 17:1-27 New King James Version (NKJV) Jesus Transfigured on the Mount 17 Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves; 2 and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light. 3 And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him. 4 Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here; if You wish, let us[a] make here three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” 5 While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!” 6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces and were greatly afraid. 7 But Jesus came and touched them and said, “Arise, and do not be afraid.” 8 When they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only. 9 Now as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “Tell the vision to no one until the Son of Man is risen from the dead.” 10 And His disciples asked Him, saying, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?” 11 Jesus answered and said to them, “Indeed, Elijah is coming first[b] and will restore all things. 12 But I say to you that Elijah has come already, and they did not know him but did to him whatever they wished. Likewise the Son of Man is also about to suffer at their hands.” 13 Then the disciples understood that He spoke to them of John the Baptist. A Boy Is Healed 14 And when they had come to the multitude, a man came to Him, kneeling down to Him and saying, 15 “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is an epileptic[c] and suffers severely; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water. 16 So I brought him to Your disciples, but they could not cure him.”17 Then Jesus answered and said, “O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to Me.” 18 And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him; and the child was cured from that very hour.19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?” 20 So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief;[d] for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you. 21 However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”[e] Jesus Again Predicts His Death and Resurrection 22 Now while they were staying[f] in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men, 23 and they will kill Him, and the third day He will be raised up.” And they were exceedingly sorrowful. Peter and His Master Pay Their Taxes 24 When they had come to Capernaum,[g] those who received the temple tax came to Peter and said, “Does your Teacher not pay the temple tax?”25 He said, “Yes.” And when he had come into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth take customs or taxes, from their sons or from strangers?” 26 Peter said to Him, “From strangers.” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are free. 27 Nevertheless, lest we offend them, go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you have opened its mouth, you will find a piece of money;[h]take that and give it to them for Me and you.” Watch out for our OCTOBER 2014 daily words of Exhortations on EMPOWERMENT TO WALK IN THE MANIFOLD PRESENCE OF GOD" TOMORROW OCTOBER 27, 2014.
