PLACE OF SUCCESS.

Nigeria is a Bless country highly endowed with numerous resources that are yet untapped, including human resources. Christianity has actually come to stay and we have great men and women of God who are really burning for Christ and who through the word of God have made many to be converted to the services of God and has made great exploit for God all over the world. These men/women are very influential and rich in Christendom.

Bishop David Oyedepo is one of such men of God who commands respect and has waged so much influence when it has to do with the things of the Lord. He is intellectually rich for the word of God. When I read his preaching on \”Unveiling the prophetic place of success\”. I was impacted and Blessed, I decided to share it in my platform.

Unveiling the Prophetic Place of Success! By David Oyedepo

Welcome to September! I believe we must have been baptised into higher realms of faith all through the month of August, 2018. May we live under the intoxicating effect of faith all the days of our lives! This week, we shall examine the topic: Unveiling the Prophetic Place of Success!

From scriptures, we understand that, prophetically, the end-time Church is ordained a reigning Church. For it is written: The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies. Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth (Psalm 110:1-3). We also discover from scriptures that the enthronement of the saints in success will be a weapon in the hand of God in reaping the end-time harvest. It is written: Thus saith the Lord of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities: And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the Lord, and to seek the Lord of hosts: I will go also. Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord. Thus saith the Lord of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you (Zechariah 8:20-23). That means God is going to herald the coming of His Son Jesus by distinguishing the Church. People will come running speedily to God, because of the waves of supernatural distinctions in the body of Christ. God is going to make His people a showpiece on the earth by making them resounding successes in all spheres of life; such as industry, education, Commerce, manufacturing e.t.c. Remember, success speaks louder than words. It commands greater attention than the greatest oration any man can make. It is self inviting and attractive. Success has a compelling force around it, drawing everyone to itself, whether consciously or unconsciously. For instance, we saw how the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon and she came to see his riches and test the depth of his wisdom. Subsequently, she was very impressed with Solomon’s wisdom and prosperity that she praised God for such wisdom (1 Kings 4:32). However, when Jesus came to the earth, He said of Himself, ‘Behold a greater than Solomon is here,’ (1 Kings 10:14-23; 2 Chronicles 9:12-24; Matthew 12:42; Colossians 1:27). That means, every redeemed child of God, in this end-time, has a greater than Solomon potential and as such we can access a greater dimension of all round success. That is why God has programmed to reap the end-time harvest through the outstanding and resounding success of His people. This underscores the fact that God is a Master strategist! In warfare, strategy, not strength or resources, is the greatest asset. So, God’s end-time plan for the Church is to use the sickle of the success (of the saints) to bring home the harvest of dying souls. He will use the supernatural lifting of His people as a force of attraction for pulling the dying world to Himself. There shall be such liftings in the body of Christ, the kind that the world has never known before; and by such liftings, multitudes will be brought into the Kingdom of God without us going to them to say ‘Accept Jesus.’ This is God’s agenda for the end-time Church! May you be blessed as you read🙏
