MONEYRIA IS WORSE THAN MALARIA
I WAS TAUGHT PROSPERITY BY BISHOP OYEDEPO IN BIBLE SCHOOL AND CONFESSED I CAN’T BE POOR BUT I WAS STILL POOR
I WAS LAYING HANDS ON THE SICK AND THEY WERE HEALED BUT I WAS STILL BEGGING WITH STYLE
THE WORST FORM OF DECEPTION IS SELF DECEPTION
REDEMPTION THROUGH THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS IS THE SPONSOR OF ABUNDANCE.
– Pastor David Ibiyeomie on ‘COVENANT SECURITY IN HARD TIMES’ at Second Word Session SHILOH 2023 – Day 2 Hour of Visitation REDEEMED TO FLOURISH IN HARD TIMES Faith Tabernacle, Canaanland, Ota Part A
‘Redeemed To Flourish In Hard Times’ is the theme and my sub topic is ‘COVENANT SECURITY IN HARD TIMES‘ Now, hear this, before I go on to say anything. We were taught prosperity by our father himself in Bible School. He started the prosperity teaching.
So, if the Headquarters of Prosperity should teach you, you believe that you will succeed and I heard him say, he put his hands (In his pocket) and said ‘I can never be poor’ and when he said it with authority, I said ‘How can a man speak like this?’ because where I was coming from, they never preached that way.
He said ‘I can never be poor. Have I ever asked any of you for a dime?’ I said ‘How can somebody talk like this?’ So, I too said ‘I can’t be poor’ but poverty did not leave. My confessing it did not change my situation. I said I can’t be poor, but deep down in me I knew that I was still soliciting, begging with style.
The worst form of deception is self deception. If you don’t know it, you don’t know it and what you don’t know, don’t pretend to know.
So, I discovered that I don’t really know this thing yet. I was already seeing miracles. As a brother, I have prayed for somebody to drop crutches, but when it comes to money, I didn’t get it because moneria is worse than malaria.
So, I told myself, ‘Discover the secrets of this Man’ I picked his book, ‘Breaking financial hardship’, locked myself for 7 days and I said, ‘God, show me the secret of Kingdom wealth that you showed to my father’ and when I encountered light, this time it was not a statement of just talking. I now knew the secret. So, out of the things I have learned from him, I am going to share with you.
Now hear this and hear me well. Hardship is a scriptural agenda that can not be averted globally but can be avoided personally through covenant practice. Based on what Bishop Abioye read in Isaiah 60:2, we all know that hardship can not be scripturally averted globally. It’s a global problem. But personally, you can avoid it if you practice what the Bible says. Those who dismiss God’s financial method will suffer man’s financial crises.
– I pray that before this Shiloh 2023 will be over, you will have a new story to tell.
‘I don’t have’ is the mentality of a man who doesn’t want to come out of hardship. Hear me people of God. I will be sharing with us factors that determine your covenant security in hard times. Some of them because it can’t take all.
What are the factors?
1: Be conscious of your exemption status in Christ. 2 Corinthians 8:9. Redemption has moved you and I from the realm of scarcity to the realm of plenty. Through the sacrifice of Jesus, every child of God is entitled to supernatural exemption from all negative occurrences of life. The covenant of God puts us in that place where our case is positively different. In the time of famine, the Bible says Isaac experienced supernatural exemption as he became exceptionally prosperous. He had possessions in recession. Genesis 26:12-14. Galatians 4:28. It means that whatever Isaac saw, you and I can also see it.
– So, no matter what is happening in the World, your own case will be different in the name of Jesus.
There was scarcity in Egypt. In the same Egypt in Goshen, where the people of God were, there was plenty. So, redemption is the sponsor of abundance. During Covid, based on the teachings I’ve heard from our father, during Covid, during the lockdown, people were complaining.
Our Church had the highest income during Covid and we were not doing physical Church. Your mentality defines your dignity. So, you must see it, think it and believe exemption to enjoy exemption. ‘ As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he’ You are not born again to suffer what the World is suffering.
– You must see it that your own case is different from others and it shall be so to someone who believes it.
The 12 spies, when Moses sent them. The whole 12 acknowledged there were giants. Remember, the whole 12 acknowledged it. 10 had faith in the giants, 2 had faith in God. 2 only believed that God can make it. 10 believed their case was hopeless. Nobody is saying there is no hardship, that will be self deception but in the midst of hardship, what are you seeing? Everybody goes to the same market, but those who know the truth don’t suffer what others suffer.
– You will not be a victim of suffering.
2: Embrace the love factor. I use Mark 12 because Matthew 22:37 did not put (the word) ‘strength’ So, I will use Mark 12:30,31. It puts (the word) ‘Strength’ because whatever makes you who you are, use it to love God. Your strength can be your position, your strength can be your political power. It says until you use that place that makes you who you are to love God, you are not a lover. Love is the foundation for all covenant practices. Anything done without love will never produce. Matthew 6:33. So, those who see God don’t sink in life.
– You will never sink.
