OCTOBER 2022 PRESERVATION AND POWER COMMUNION SERVICE – WEDNESDAY, 5TH OCTOBER 2022
ANCHOR SCRIPTURE(S): JOHN 10:10
MESSAGE TOPIC: THE LIFE OF GOD
By: Dr Paul Enenche
SERVICE OBJECTIVES:
1. Understanding the importance of the life of God
2. Understanding our access to the life of God
It is important to note that the major goal of Christianity is the infusion of the lives of men with the life of God
Jesus Christ, the Son of God became the Son of man so that the children of men can become the children of God (Ps. 82:6; Ex. 7:1)
The arrival of sin in the Garden of Eden was arrival of death, disaster and disease (Gen. 2:17; Rom. 5:12; 6:16, 23; 1 Cor. 15:56)
Christianity seeks to take man out of that death into life (John 10:10; 1 John 4:4, 5:4)
WHAT IS THE CONTENT/VALUE OF THE LIFE OF GOD?
1. Spiritual Life (John 4:24)
You may be living in the natural but there is a spiritual dimension to your natural life; spiritual life makes spirituality possible
Spiritual life gives you access to spiritual capabilities – to hear in the spirit, understand in the spirit, discern in the spirit…
2. Quality Life (John 10:10; 1 Pet. 2:9)
Quality life is a meaningful, valuable life; a life of dignity
All the saints of old, lived lives that were enviable and admirable
3. Royal Life (1 John 5:4; Eccl. 10:5-7; Ps. 82:5-7; Hos. 4:6)
Royal life refers to a life in dominion and authority; a life in charge
God is calling you to an authoritative and dominating life
4. Purposeful Life (1 John 3:8; Jer. 1:5, 29:11)
Purposeful life is direction filled life
For every child of God, life has a purpose.
‘I am an arrow fired by Divinity passing through time to return back to eternity. By the grace of God, I shall not miss target!’
5. Prosperous Life (Rev. 5:12; Ps. 1:1-3; 35:26-27; 37:25-26; Deut. 15:6; 28:12)
The man planted in God is planted in the midst of abundance
You are not permitted to be a beggar/struggler when you have the Life of God
You are meant to be giving and lending where necessary not begging and borrowing
6. Healthy, Strong Life (1 Pet. 2:24; Matt. 8:16-17)
7. Durable Life (John 10:10; Isa. 54:17)
No witch, wizard or ritualist is licensed to use your body for sacrifice
WHAT ARE THE ROOTS OF OUR DIVINE LIFE?
1. Through Creation (Gen. 1:26, 28)
If it was God who created you, there is something about God inside you, even if you are not saved
2. Through Salvation (John 3:16; 1 John 5:4; Rom. 6:23)
3. Through the Holy Spirit (John 3:6,8; Rom. 8:11; John 7:37-39)
If it was God who created you, there is something about God inside you, even if you are not saved
When you pray in tongues, you are not just praying in tongues you are praying in strength, life and fire!
The Holy Spirit is a River that flows with life; River Benue flows with water, but the River of the Holy Ghost flows with Life (John 7:37-39)
The Holy Spirit is a River of revival and irrigation
Where the river of the Holy Spirit flows, nothing is permitted to be dying, stinking or stagnant.
4. Through the Word (John 6:63; Phil. 2:16; 1 John 1:1)
Every contact with the Word is contact with the Life of God
Whenever you are running out of breath, plunge into the Word.
5. Through the Blood of the Communion (John 6:54-57)
Don’t take the communion as a ceremony but as a life giving infusion
Take the communion daily with revelation and serve it to your family; it is what we do with revelation that has benefits
6. Through fellowship and communion with the Father (Ps. 17:15; 16:8-11)
Spend time with God to such a point that when you step out people feel God
7. Through Faith in God (Hab. 2:4)
Faith is a combination of revelation and conviction
The easiest way to know that your faith is alive is when your fear is dead; faith is motion despite fear; fear is not permitted to paralyze you!
