SERMONS

When the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you do the things you never did before. Consider it a favour when God asks you to do something. It is grace when God choses you among many He could have went to. The only thing that can happen to the will of God is delay, it can never fail. God takes care of His plans and He is focused to see His will come to pass. The church exists to bring people to Christ, if there are no new people coming in, then the church has lost its meaning. When last did you bring the new person in the kingdom of God? Do not lose a meaning to win souls. Wonder why church is not moving, it has lost appetite to move out. The Holy Spirit gives the appetite to win souls. A united front is a blessed front; unity is where the power is. Sometimes we are united without plan. Never underestimate the power of planning. Moving forward with the Holy Spirit!

The two huge mountains in Christianity are the Great commandment and the Great commission. A) Great commandment: Love God with all your mind (intellect), soul (feelings/emotions ) , heart (will) & strength and love your neighbour as yourself. Show love, live in love and demonstrate love. B) Great commission: Don't evangelise but disciple. To evangelise is to proclaim, to disciple is to make into the image and likeness of Christ. The bridge between the two mountains is the Church. Jesus started and the Body will continue with the work.

The church has become sympathetic (passive), but in this season God is raising an empathetic (active) church because it’s time to change things! First way to effect societal reform: Raise disciples. Disciples walk in the principles of God; we are not a group of followers. Acts 1 speaks of Christians because the people who were the reference were doing what Jesus Christ did. The church is not supposed to be a high maintenance centre handing out miracles but a perfecting centre for societal reform.

Jesus didn't only die for you to have salvation and be in the waiting room for heaven. Salvation is the door. Many are in a rush to get to heaven yet our mandate is to rule in every sector of society here on earth. It is not enough for you to have salvation. Its time to penetrate the systems of the world.

Remain in faith even when circumstances come because God is sovereign. He is the God of miracles and He can do the impossible. Jesus is the key to changing the quality of our lives (He is the piece of wood to change the bitterness of the water).
