THE GOOD GIFT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

 

 

[Living Bread Nugget 0617]

 

 

LUKE 11: 11-13 [KJV]

 11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?

 12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?

 13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

 

A child looking forward to a great meal will expect bread, fish and egg and not stone, serpent and scorpion. Bread, fish, and egg are life sustaining. Stone serpent and egg will harm a child. A father who gives a stone or a scorpion to a child to eat should expect to be in jail for a long time. In another scene, fathers give good gifts to their children out of love. When the child receives a gift he or she ask for, that child’s face is lighted with joy. In the above story, Jesus said earthly fathers expectedly make good choices in giving the right food to their children.  

Translating the story to the spiritual, God is a heavenly Father. The best gift by our heavenly Father after salvation (similar to after a child is born in the above passage) is the gift of the Holy Spirit. God knows you need it for survival in the world because the other alternative out there is are evil spirits from the devil does not want a Christian to survive in the faith. If you want to survive in the faith you definitely need the Holy Spirit. Ask God to fill you with the Holy Spirit today.

 

Prayer Point

 

1.               Oh Lord thank you for giving me the gift of salvation. Thank you for the gift of the Holy Spirit.

 

2.               Oh Lord, give me more power of your Holy Spirit. Satisfy me with the invigorating power of the Holy Spirit and make me whole; body, soul and spirit in the Name of Jesus.

Upward looking

Author: Esther Agbi

 

Bible Nugget 0606 [Colossians 3:2, KJV]

 

If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

 

2. Set your affections on things above, not on things on the earth.

 

God wants us to be focused on things above. The question now arises. What are those things above? This same passage tells us Christ is above, making intersession for you and me. We also know that God is above. He is sitting on his throne and the earth is his foot stool. The angelic host and the 24 elders are worshiping the most high day in day out.

Some of the definitions of the word “set” are to adjust, lay or stand in a certain position, make or become permanent.

 

As we begin to worship God right here on earth, we are positioning our selves for eternity, which will become permanent in due time. The love of God wells up in us and we continue to increase in our heavenly treasures. No little wonder the scripture says where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Let us as Christians risen with him continue to love what God loves and despise what He hates. The Holy Spirit will help us to adjust our lives to please Him as our aspirations, hope and our mental disposition is upward looking.

 

In the same manner, when Jesus ascended into heaven, the disciples set their gaze towards heaven until the angels of God came to them and said, this same Jesus shall return in the same manner as you see him go.

 

I pray that the lord will not only allow us to be looking upward physically, but spiritually

also, until his coming in Jesus name. Amen.

 

Prayer Points 0606

  1. Lord, any cataract preventing me, from seeing you clearly, blot out from my way by your power.
  2. Father, make my affections to be in line with yours, in Jesus name. Amen

THIS MOUNTAIN MUST MOVE

 

Bible Nugget 0603 [Zechariah 4:6-9]

 

 6Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.

 7Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.

 8Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

 9The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you.

 

This message has been brewing in my heart for 3 days. I pray the spirit of God enable me deliver it as it was ministered to me in Jesus Name.

 

Listen to this. Imagine for a moment what the world was before the re-creation of the earth in Gen 1:2-3. Utter darkness. Pitch darkness. Chaos. Rumbling of the seas. In the midst of all these, the bible says, the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God by a blast of command with a great commanding tone said. “Let there be light and there was Light”. God’s spirit reshaped the chaotic earth that was without form and void.  Gen 1:1-3

1In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

 2And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

 3And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

 

Is there something out of order in your life?  It will be recreated after the order of Gen 1: 2-3 in the mighty Name of Jesus. Not by physical power but by the power of the Holy Spirit. That same power that raise Jesus from the dead. That must have been a great power. The same forces that kept the earth in chaos in Gen 1 v 2, kept Jesus in the grave for 3 days and that same Holy Ghost broke through the gates of hell and released Jesus from the grave. Therefore when he said before his death I am the resurrection and the life, he meant every word of it. He demonstrated it at the grave of Lazarus. With that same commanding tone that God used to recreate the world, Jesus used to raise Lazarus because the powers of darkness held him bound and wanted to cut short his days. Jesus shouted

“Lazarus, come forth”.  John 11:43

 

43And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

 

Is there any mountain that is reluctant to move in your situation? They must move at the name of Jesus. In the army it is said obey the last command. The devil’s kingdom is a hierarchy with the devil on top of his legions of demons, principalities and powers. The devil’s powers are inferior because the last command is Jesus. When Jesus gives orders all forces of darkness must obey.

 

The hand of God empowered Zerubbabel. God gave him grace, more grace and more grace until he accomplished the task he was appointed to do. Are there things you started and the enemy says you cannot complete them, tell them to move because the power of God will move them if they refuse to move. Mountain no matter how high or large in size must move. Are you facing issues relating to your health, or the enemy wants to inflict you with symptoms of sickness? Tell it that it has no power over you. Are you faced with family crises? Tell the devil; to remove his hand from your situation. Is your business failing or are you in any financial difficulty? Tell the enemy he is too small to put you in debt. Have you started a project and you are facing challenges finishing it? Tell the enemy “I will finish this project”. Are you looking for to God for wisdom in your academic pursuit? Ask God to baptize you with his fountain of wisdom. Any breakthrough you are looking for can be yours today. Tell the mountain to go in Jesus Name.

 

In closing, there is a song with the following words. Sing it with your own lyrics

 

Satan who told you to come into my Heart [substitute heart for house, or business or family, etc]

I tell you pack your load and go

I command pack your load and go

In Jesus Name.

 

The Name of Jesus is the last command. Use the Name of Jesus and the Spirit of God will move those mountains and challenges facing you today.

 

 

Prayer Points 0603

  1. Every mountain of impossibility, I command you to move. Move and be dumped into the sea in Jesus Name.
  2. Every power and forces holding my blessings, I command you to release them. Fade away in the mighty Name of Jesus.
  3.  I loose myself from every grave clothes after the order of Lazarus in Jesus name. I receive  release from every bondage of death and hell in the mighty name of Jesus. Sickness, disease, infirmity and every form of physical or spiritual malady bow in the mighty name of Jesus.
  4. Every thing I lay my hand upon is blessed, because the power of God will enable it. Every thing I set my heart to do that will please God, I accomplish in the mighty name of Jesus.

God’s “Heartometer” in Man

Excerpts from a sermon on GENTLENESS

DATE: 31st May 2009

Church: Champions Pariah, Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Edmonton, AB Canada 

Minister: Joseph Agbi

 

Bible Nugget 0601 [Ezekiel 11:19]

 

19And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:

 

 

The world has become so scientific that a lot of things are measured by instruments. For example, in a good auto diagnostic centre they you could be told how much life is left of your car engine. By using instruments you can tell whether the engine is brand new or it is so bad that it is at the verge of “knocking” or completing breaking down. Similarly, meteorologist measures atmospheric pressure by a barometer, a doctor measures blood pressure with a sphygmomanometer [simply called blood pressure monitor].  These are all in the physical world we live in.

           

In the spiritual, the gauge for measuring how much divine life is inside a man is the heart. God measures how good the heart he put in man is by the level of good things that heart generates. God’s measures “good” and “evil” by a standard heart, or new heart he put in man [the perfect heart or what in a term the Holy Spirit ministered to me called the “heartometer”].  If it generates good things such as the fruit of the spirit, love, joy, peace gentleness being some of them, that heart is performing well. Jesus speaking to the Pharisees said in Matt 12:34b-35

 

For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

35A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.     

 

Everybody has the capacity to receive a new heart from God. A perfect heart like the one in Adam and Eve before the fall in the garden of Eden. Every good gift and perfect gift comes from God and the heart is one great gift because the spirit of God makes a clean heart his dwelling place.

 

Ezekiel 36:26-27

26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27 I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.

 

When you become born again, you receive this regenerated heart created for righteousness as said in the book of Ezekiel

 

2 Corinthians 5:17

17Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

 

Even after making a decision to follow Christ, you need to continue to make that heart to produce good and not evil. To do this you need to walk in the spirit [or following the leading of  the Holy Spirit]. In fact, the Holy Spirit is there to help you succeed and live a victorious Christian life. The malfunctioning heartometer begins to function and receive signals from the Holy Spirit. You begin to want to please God by making good choices and not bad choices. When we walk in the spirit, we will not walk in the flesh. You life begin to produce the fruit as you become more mature and become more sensitive to the prompting of the Holy Spirit. You begin to bear the fruit of the spirit. It begins to ripen. People begin to see you and see Christ.  All these because your heartometer is producing good and not evil.

 

Prayer Points 0601

 

Pray the following prayers meaningfully and with all seriousness.

  1. Oh Lord, lead me in your path of righteousness. Let my heart be a place where you Holy Spirit loves to reside. Fellowship with me in your spirit and power in Jesus name.
  2. Lord Jesus, Let your overpowering light overpower me just as it did the apostle Paul on the way to Damascus and he never remained the same again in Jesus Name.
  3. Holy Spirit, make my heart to churn out tons of good things. Evil will not dwell in my heart and I will not compromise with evil things or evil men in the name of Jesus.
  4. Oh Lord, let the blessedness of the man who walks in the counsel of the godly be mine today in Jesus Name.

Bible & Prayer Nuggets 0505

The winning Team (I)

 

Bible Nugget 0505 [1 Corinthians 15:58]

 

1 Corinthians 15: 58

“Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.”

 

Team sport is very interesting. A team sport requires every member of the team to contribute their quota for the team to perform. If any member is not giving his best on the field, the team’s performance goes down and the team may even lose the match. Sometimes, the team members may be excellent players, but the coach is very lousy. That team is likely to lose as many matches in a row as there are team members because the coach will give conflicting instructions to the team members before the big games. However, a very good coach will see and exploit the talent of each member of the team for successes. He changes one tactic (by tapping on the talent of a team member) and puts the opponent team in disarray. That one tactical change may make all the difference. This is common in soccer where the goal margin at the end of a game is 1-0. The match could have been so close that if you stopped watching as a neutral spectator at the 89th minute and left the stadium or went to bed thinking the match was over you would wish you saw the deciding goal live.

 

The coach of a Christian is Christ. He is not just any type of coach. He is a perfect coach. He coaches you to success and victory only. No losing game when Christ is your coach. He knows the tactics of the opposing team – the enemy (that is, the devil and his works). He has a clear plan against the other opponent coach, Satan.  John 10:10 reads:

 

10The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

 

Because Jesus is the best of coaches, victory is guaranteed.  However, you and I have a part to play our parts to continue as winners to the end. The scripture says …. be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work [1 Corinthians 15:58]. The problem is not with the coach because Coach Jesus is perfect. The problem is with you and me. How much effort (or labour as v 58 says) do you put into the kingdom to see the kingdom of God grow. Be a tireless worker for the kingdom.

 

Daniel 12:3

3And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

 

Proverbs 11:30

30The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.

 

Be a soul winner. Be wise.

 

Prayer Points 0505

  1. I receive the spirit of an over comer in the mighty name of Jesus Name.
  2. I am a victor. I refuse to be vanquished. I enforce my victory in Christ over all the works of the enemy in Jesus Name.
  3. Oh Lord, grant me your divine wisdom. Help me to be a soul winner. Grant me the grace to work tireless in your vineyard in Jesus Name.
