BELIEF IN HIS WORD

On Sunday March 22, 2015 the church service at The SCOAN created another great platform for the congregation to witness the outpouring of God’s power and glory. From the choral ministration of the Emmanuel Singers to the highly edifying message of the man of God, one thing was certain – the presence of God at The SCOAN cannot be over-emphasised! Testimony upon testimony, glory upon glory and favour inimitable, the people of God in the congregation, with their countenances animated by smiles from the depth of their hearts, gave glory, honour and adoration unto the KING OF KINGS in Whose hands lie the meaning of their lives.
Indeed, the Word of God is the foundation of our lives as Christians and remains the standard upon which our daily lives are built. Speaking on the BELIEF IN HIS WORD, Prophet T.B. Joshua engaged the congregation on salient factors that enhance our relationship with God. He defined the indispensability of God’s Word in the life of a true Christian and how the Faith Bracelet helps to connect the heart to God: “Many of us don’t know the importance of this Faith Bracelet. The Faith Bracelet will actually help you to reset your belief on the outside because on the outside, there are distractions. Even while you are sitting down, there are a lot of distractions. This will take the theme of the message – BELIEF IN HIS WORD. That is, believe in God’s Word”.
Discouraging the attitude of some Christians who allow their circumstances to determine what they believe, the man of God urged the congregation to realise the need to place God’s Word above every other consideration: “Many Christians today – their situation at hand determines what they believe. Paul preached the Word of faith in that book of Romans to the people in Rome. The Word of faith he preached is in two places – he told them that this Word is in two places: in their hearts to believe; in their mouths to confess”.

More so, the man of God explained the relationship between the Word of God and our faith without which it will be impossible to please God. In other words, it is only by professing our faith through the Word of God that we can unleash the power and presence of God in our lives: “Faith comes through the Word of Christ – in our hearts to obey, in our mouths to talk.  You can confess anything but what you believe is what you practice. It is what you believe that translates in the life you live. What I believe is what is translating in my life. You can’t just tell someone, ‘I am a Christian’ – you can say you are a Christian and not such in heart. What you believe in your heart influences your conduct and character”.
Concluding, the man of God urged the congregation to always engage their hearts in meditating on the Word of God as that would guarantee them constant connection with His will: “Even when you are making up, engage your heart. Are you in the restroom? Engage your heart. At the same time, you are reading but can be meditating on something different. For so long, your spirit man has been dormant. Something else has been using your spirit man. You are doing something else and your spirit man is engaged in something else. Engage your spirit-man… I have told you how to engage your heart – not thinking about your situation, condition. Think more – meaning meditation”.
