MOW:TS – We are Commanded to Bless! (Bro Ben Bassey)
Theme: We are commanded to bless!
Memory Verse: Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it. ( Numbers 23:20)
Beloved,
Let’s give the highest glory to God for ushering us into the month of double grace plus. I have it strong in my spirit, that before the end of this month, God is going to be glorified mightily, in our lives in Jesus precious name. Amen. The bible tells us that JESUS is a name above every other name, hence, when that name is mentioned appropriately, every knee, power, force, authority etc, whether in heaven, on earth, underneath the end, must bow to the glory of his holy name (Phil 2: 9-10).
The commandment we receive as true born again children of God is to bless and curse not. This is what our memory verse is saying. Brother Paul captured this clearly in his letter to the Romans: Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not (Romans 12:14). We can not be children of God, yet we are thinking evil, speaking evil, wishing others bad etc. Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaketh (Matt 12:34). This is where spiritual understanding is important. We are to bless and curse not!
Every true born again Christian has new name: son of God (John 1:12); word of God (Rev 2:17) etc. However, this glorious name is hidden from many, until they are willing to search the scriptures and discover them. The book of Proverbs says: It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter (Prov 25:2). God sowed Jesus, as a seed so that He will have many sons in the image and likeness of Jesus. The plan of God is for us to live like Jesus here on earth. Again, brother Paul revealed this to us vividly: For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God (Romans 8:19).
My brothers, sisters, uncles etc, we all have a NEW NAME in Christ Jesus. That new name is called: word of God. Please, be in love with the word of God. Jesus himself is the Word of God (John 1:1; Rev 19:13). Please, note that the ‘w’ in the word is capitalised when refering to Jesus, just as Jesus is the Son of God while every true believer is a son of God. The Word says: He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it (Rev 2:17). Let praise the name of the LORD for our new name! Your new name is the word of God! The son of God!
One thing that has caused me much distress is the lack of unity and oneness within the church( the body of Christ). This ought not be so. Why is the body of Christ being divided?. A very key feature of the early church was the oneness and unity amongst believers. The Word says: And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common (Acts 4:32). It is oneness and unity that generate power. Remember the building of the tower of babel by man (Gen 11:1-4). Perhaps, this is why we do not have many signs and wonders in the churches today. This is about to change. Thank God for the FIRE currently spreading across his church.
Ignorance has kept many away from enjoying their birth right. Sincerely spend quality time daily to meditate on the word of God, and you will begin to see the difference in your life. Be totally obedient to the word of God. Live your new name! Do not limit God through your thoughts.
Your new name is the word of God: I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High (Psalm 82:6).
Welcome to the month of November. Have a Spirit-filled month, and a great week ahead.
,To have increasing spiritual knowledge, requires total fear of God, and spiritual training in the word of God: Train yourself to be godly(1Tim 4:7-8 NIV).
PRAYER: There is someone reading this message , may you receive the grace to have the revelational knowledge of your new name, and to live your new name for others to see, in Jesus mighty name. Amen!
In the Ministry Of the Word (MOW)-Acts 6:4, we primarily encourage and empower believers to be rich in the words of God: let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom(Col 3:16). The entrance of the WORD is the true source of LIGHT in a dark world(Ps 119:130). We also encourage believers to speak to one another ”in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs”(Eph 5:19). We encourage everyone to seek first the kingdom of God & his righteousness(Matt 6:33). ”Righteousness exalts”(Prov 14:34). We emphasize that pure Christianity is about True Spirituality in Christ Jesus. We emphasize that the POWER in the blood of Jesus has set us FREE from bondage, and that where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (2Cor 3:17). Jesus is the Truth,(John 14:6). The words of God are spirit & are Life(John 6:63). We allow the Scriptures to answer all questions. We create the awareness that Jesus has made all true believers kings and priests unto God and his Father(Rev 1:6). In addition, as a spiritual body, we also empower unbelievers, using the principles of our Lord Jesus Christ with the understanding that when they witness the power of the living God, they will exalt his holy name (Psalm 46:10). One major objective of MOW is to increasingly improve everyone’s spiritual understanding! Spiritual ignorance is a major cause of human destruction(Hosea 4:6). Indeed, many children of God have ”gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge” (Isa 5:13). Please note that the MOW is an initiative and the spiritual arm of Abasi Health Foundation (AHF). AHF is a registered NGO in Nigeria , with the primary objective of empowering all groups of people to optimize their health. It is aimed at encouraging everyone to have increasing awareness of three broad levels of health: Physical, Mental and Spiritual. May God give you the grace of increasing understanding in Jesus Name. Amen. Websites: http//www.ministryoftheword.org; http//www.abasihealthfoundation.org
