Message: FOUNDATIONAL KEYS TO DIVERSE SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS
Bible Texts: Joel 2:28, Psalms 11:3
Ministering: Pastor Dr. Raf Otono
Date: 1st January 2023
Happy new year! Welcome to 2023 – it is our year of DIVERSE SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS! – The manifestations we will be seeing as a church this year is LIMITLESS! God has given us an open check but the foundation we lay will determine the height we get to this year!
Listen: from where we read it said – if the foundation be destroyed what can the righteous do? IT IS A SOUND & DELICATE QUESTION!
That means no matter your righteousness, if it is built on a faulty foundation – you will frustrate the grace of God at work! So, God is saying CLEAN SLATE! GO BACK TO YOUR DRAWING BOARD & REBUILD!
Sir, the depth and solidity of a foundation determines the height of a building!
If the foundation is wrong, no matter what you build on it cannot stand the test of TIME and trust me life is full of test. As a matter of fact, for you to move from one level to another you must be tested!
Yes, it is our year of diverse manifestations! But listen – Nothing beautiful appears on its own, investment is required for it to become a reality!
Last night we had a wonderful time in God’s presence with solid word, communion, the washing of our feet and our heads was anointed with holy oil but guess what? That wasn’t the building, that was the certificate of approval for the building to commence! Thank God for the washing of our feet, thank God for the communion and anointing but it is TIME TO RISE UP AND BEGIN TO BUILD ON THAT CERTIFICATION! – Prov 24:3-5 NKJV – (also see AMP)
You will agree with me that the true beauty of a house is not seen in the approval to build, it is seen after the work has been done.
I DECREE IN THE NAME OF JESUS THAT AT THE END OF THIS YEAR BY REASON OF YOUR DEDICATION TO BUILD AND GOD’S HELP, THE WORLD WILL BEHOLD & SEE THE BEAUTY OF YOUR LIFE IN THE NAME OF JESUS!
THERE ARE FOUR FOUNDATIONAL KEYS TO DIVERSE SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS I’D LIKE TO SHOW YOU FROM WHERE WE JUST READ
Prov 24:3 – Through skillful and Godly wisdom a house (life, home, family) is built
Your life is like a house, this year build it on solid foundational truths so that you can manifest!
- GODLY WISDOM KEY– Prov 24:3 AMP
For you to build a solid life, this year 2023 – you need Godly wisdom, not the wisdom of the world or else it will crash. DO NOT BE WISE IN YOUR OWN EYES – ask God for wisdom – James 1:5 AMP
Wisdom speaks of your foundation in building your life – that’s David said to Solomon in Prov 4:7 – Wisdom is the PRINCIPAL THING, therefore get wisdom! In other words, WISDOM IS YOUR FOUNDATION – GO FOT IT FIRST! –
Listen: Godly wisdom is foolishness to this world, until you are ready to do the things the world call foolish, your life cannot be full of God’s glory! – 1 Cor 1:27 NLT
Worldly wisdom begets worldly results but Godly wisdom begets Godly results
- STRUCTURAL KEY – Prov 24:3
You will agree with me that even if the foundation of a house is great and there are structural errors, it might collapse! So apart from have a solid foundation you must have a GREAT STRUCTURAL PLAN for your life this year. (Our House Experience)
Don’t just live life anyhow this year have a STRUCTURAL PLAN!
LISTEN: A life without structure will soon rupture. Structures are the Godly pillars that hold your life.
There are structures that God has put in place for us to manifest on earth
- The Structure of fellowship – Heb 10:25, Prov 11:14 AMP (Church Attendance)
- The Structure of Service – Matt 20:28, 23:11-12
- The Structure of Giving – Gen 8:22, Luke 6:38 (Tithes, offering, seeds)
- ROOFING KEY – Prov 24:3
No great house is built without being roofed or covered otherwise it is exposed to all manner of dangerous situations. TELL YOUR NEIGHBOUR COVER YOURSELF WELL THIS YEAR!
This key speaks of spiritual coverage, God has given us a word for the year 2023 as it concerns this house, for it to be most effective you must stay serious connected and covered at the grace at work here. Jumping from one place to another exposes you, hence you are not covered. THE ROOF COVER ONLY COVERS THOSE THAT STAY COMMITTED AND CONNECTED TO THE HOUSE.
IF YOU MUST EXPERIENCE DIVERCE SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS THIS YEAR YOU MUST BE WELL COVERED BY THE GRACE AT WORK HERE!
- KNOWLEDGE & FURNISHING KEY – Prov 24:4
You will all agree with me that the finishing and furnishing of a house is the most expensive part of the building. It is costly to furnish a house tastefully.
Thank God for the foundation level, for the structural level and the roofing level but no beautiful house ends there! The worse that a man can do is to build a beautiful house and furnish it with outdated furniture.
HOW DO YOU FURNISH YOUR LIFE IN 2023?
- The knowledge of God’s God – Ps 119:130, Hosea 4:6
Sir what you don’t know is bigger than you! This year furnish yourself with the knowledge of God’s word. KNOW GOD FOR YOURSELF!
- Prayer & Fasting – Luke 18:1, Matt 17:21
This year is the year to watch and pray! If we must see DIVERSE SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS, we must understand that we must be intimate with the spirit of God and for that to happen, we must furnish our lives with the knowledge of His word and be in prayers and fasting always! RISE ON YOUR FEET!
GOD BLESS YOU! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
PRAYER WITH 7 POINTS AND PRAYER AGAINST DEATH!
Isaiah 28:18
Father in the name of Jesus, arise and break the covenant of death in Jesus name!
We arrest the spirt of the dog at work in Jesus name!
Your Light Must Shine!
