DON’T DELAY JUST ACT ON HIS WORD ; Joshua Oduyoye .

DON’T DELAY JUST ACT ON HIS WORD

“Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. Joshua 1:9”

There are people in this world who just have the habit of delaying or showing a lackadaisical attitude in everything. It should never be your attitude or said of you as a child of God. The Almighty GOD had to stress this on more than one occasion to encourage Joshua to lead the Israelites into the promised land.

As a child of God, be sensitive to the voice of God. Jesus Christ said my sheep hear my voice and they follow me, John 10:27-28.

Open your spirit up through constant study of God’s Word, prayer in the Holy Ghost, prayer in your understanding, and exercising the Holy Scriptures; when you are doing these things on a regular basis, God will definitely start speaking to your spirit. When God speaks, He buttresses it with the Holy Scriptures as confirmation of His voice.

Go ahead and act promptly, without delay, because you will be the utmost beneficiary of His good work. Praise the Lord. Dearly beloved, do you know the voice of God?

THE SECRET PLACE OF THE LORD IS PERSONAL ; JOSHUA ODUYOYE

THE SECRET PLACE OF THE LORD IS PERSONAL

“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. Psalms 91:1”

The secret place of GOD is very personal to the child of God.

It is a place of rest where there is no struggle in life; therefore, if the born again Christian has reached a place in his/her life where he/she does not struggle to get things from God or to get things accomplished, then he/she has arrived at the secret place of the MOST HIGH. When you arrive there, you will definitely have a personal testimony.

To the Psalmist in our opening Scripture, his personal testimony was, “I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.” I will also say, “THE LORD IS GOOD AND HIS MERCIES ENDURES FOREVER.”

Dearly beloved, have you arrived at the secret place of GOD?

SPIRIT WORD_1 – ODUYOYE JOSHUA

We cannot preach with Holy Spirit power unless we preach the Word. He is committed to the Word. He is not just a sweet influence or the gentle ambiance of a church building, but He is the living link between God and the Word. That is His eternal association.

When we preach the Word, the Spirit is in it, in the Gospel. By that Gospel we say “Let there be light, and there is light breaking like dawn on people hearing us. The Spirit acts when the Word is spoken. Holy Ghost preaching is not just passionate, but creative, The Spirit was the operator when God spoke at the beginning, and His work on earth when the Word is spoken has always been creative.

Men come alive through the Spirit-Word, they are born again by His creative work. No preaching of our own, however brilliant, brings miracles, but the Spirit belongs the Word and the Word belongs the Spirit, charged with all the energies seen from the day of Creation. The Divine purpose in Holy Ghost preaching is nothing less than the miraculous. God bless you.

A PEEP INTO THE SUPERNATURAL LIFE- JOSHUA ODUYOYE

I’m convinced that the more we yield to the Spirit of God and are taken over by Him, the more results we would see.

Demons take people over against their will and manifest themselves through them, but the Spirit of God will not do that against your will.

Why can’t we be more yielded to the Spirit of God? I know one reason for me is that I get over into that realm sometimes and get afraid. It’s not like a fear of snakes or cyclones; it’s a holy fear, a holy awe. I get over into that realm and get afraid I can’t get back.

I think that’s what happened to Enoch: He got over there so far he just went on over, body and all!
I don’t know about your experience, but moving in the realm of the supernatural—stepping out of the natural—is not the easiest thing to do. However, if we’ll learn to yield to the anointing and not be afraid, mighty things will happen.

SAVIOUR TODAY ,JUDGE TOMORROW.

A young lady committed a crime and she was sent to court. The punishment for the crime was life imprisonment. She shed tears for help but to no one available for help. When the case was called in court she started weeping.

Her family and friends who accompanied her started weeping but there was no hope. But something happened. Before the young lady could stand in the witness box a man stood up and the court room was silent. Everyone looked at Him. He was noble and gentle. He stood in the witness box and interceded on behalf of the woman.

The case was difficult, yet He used all His strength, energy and resources to fight on behalf of the woman. After a long legal battle between the man and the accusers, the lady was set free. The lady fell before the man and asked *’WHO ARE YOU’* The next day the lady deliberately committed another crime and was sent to the same court.

As soon as she entered the courtroom, she saw the man who interceded for her the previous day on the judgement seat. He was no longer a lawyer, but a judge. With smiles on her face the lady said *’I have come again’*

The man lifted his head and said ‘yesterday I was a lawyer, so I fought for you, even when you were guilty. But today I am a judge and my judgement must be fair.’ With tears in the ladies eyes she asked for the second time ’WHO ARE YOU’ and the man replied

*”YESTERDAY I WAS YOUR SAVIOUR. BUT NOW I AM YOUR JUDGE”*

Today Christ Jesus is our lawyer and redeemer, but a day is coming when He will give a fair judgement to everyone.
*JESUS IS COMING SOON, SO PREPARE TO MEET HIM*.

RELATIONSHIP SECTION BY ODUYOYE JOSHUA .(Relationship & Health IGO)

RELATIONSHIP SECTION
BY BROTHER ODUYOYE JOSHUA .

First I want to appreciate every member of the Immaculate global outreach platform , the admins for their great works ,and most especially you following tonight…. Thanks for having me to speak in the relationship and health weekend,
Accolades to the last night teacher , he really did some good touch on having a good health in a very much different perspective , thanks so much to Bro Paul … God bless you real good

Tonight , I’ll be speaking to us , on the relationship aspect of our life based on the team of this month RELATIONSHIP AND HEALTH WEEKEND .

So having the theme ;

LOVE VS LUST; SET THE BOUNDRY

First I had like to say that if the purpose of a thing is not know , abuse is inevitable, and where there is no law , there is no sin …

Considering this two concept,(LOVE /LUST ) you would agree with me that both of this concept can be forced to have the same meaning by action if there is no one to point to the differences in the product .
You know I like story … smiles..
I’ll give this short story ,I bet you , you would like it …. But in the process , don’t be distracted , get the point from it …. Are you ready for this ?

OK the story is about you …ooohhhh

So… you see a lady (or guy … if you’re a lady ) walking across the love garden of your institute , at school. They glance over your direction, only to see you staring right at them with a stunned look on your face! You quickly pretend that you are looking at something else! You start to sweat a little… you try to play it cool, but on the inside your guts do a triple somersault, with a half twist and a few pirouette’s for good measure.
Then as she wanders into the distance giggling with her friends, you’re left sitting there like an idiot, with a billion thoughts and feelings pulsing through you, most of which are confusing, and you have no idea what to do with… you know you like her… but is it more than that? Do I love her? Or is it just that you think she’s hot? How do you tell the difference between Love and Lust? The truth is that Joshua has being in this shoes and knows what it feels like to feel real uncomfortably stupid ….lol, the truth is that a lot of person are fighting this same storyline day in day out . LUST /LOVE …..

Although we can often get the two confused, the Bible is very clear about the difference between love & lust. As Christians, we need to make sure that we work hard at understanding the difference, because the outcome of loving someone is vastly different from the outcome of lusting after them! So TONIGHT I will be shearing here how we can identify love , lust, and work out the difference between them.
Let me run an overview by definition and see how this helps first as we move on ..

From the dictionary ; LUST IS TO HAVE A STRONG sexual DESIRE .and its synonyms with : sexual desire, sexual appetite, sexual longing, sexual passion, lustfulness, ardour, desire, passion, libido, sex drive, sexuality, biological urge, lechery, lecherousness, lasciviousness, lewdness, carnality, licentiousness, salaciousness, prurience, horniness, raunchiness, the hots, randiness, salacity, concupiscence, nympholepsy
Verb; have strong sexual desire for someone.

Synonyms: desire, be consumed with desire for, find sexually attractive, find sexy, crave, covet, want, wish for, long for, yearn for, hunger for, thirst for, ache for, burn for, pant for, have the hots for, lech after/over, fancy, have a thing about/for, drool over, have the horn for…(dictionary )

From the above dictionary analysis, we can point out so clearly that Lust is out rightly out of Gods big plan for every believer in Christ Jesus.

Having said that, can we see on the other hand what love is …

Love by definition

Love is An intense feeling of affection and care towards another person, or a deep liking for something, it’s also a profound and caring attraction towards someone.

Let me run an expanded review on this definition…..

If you Love somebody it must be beyond feelings and affection you must be set to accommodate such a person regardless of whatsoever goes wrong and beyond that, you are always set to care for such a one …

Do you know that if you love someone, you will truly not like to hurt them, either socially , sexually, or other way round … you will always care for them … for some their definition and manna of expressing love is actually to have sexual pleasure..this is demonic and should be fought against with all wisdom.

Let’s put this together now

For me Love is a deep desire, affection or feeling that you have for another person .. its lasting attraction that goes beyond the surface and turning into emotional attachment ,in this note you could feel the pain of another , you could feel their joy, you become so linked up that you are inseparable in thought and concept , you easily flow with each other this is what true Love Looks like .. so from the level of friendship( either male of female ) to the level of being into courtship OF CAUSE SETTING THE BOUNDARIES GENERALLY AND ALSO WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE FACT THAT , NO MATTER HOW A SAME SEX CAN LOVE THEMSELVES, BIBLICALLY THEY CANNOT GET MARRIED TO EACH OTHER BUT CAN YET BE AS CLOSE AS CHRIST IS CLOSE TO HIS CHURCH .

…. Lust on the other hand is basically a physical attraction that leads to an overwhelming feeling of sexual desire …..Lust is symbolic when you are totally focused on a person’s looks and body . You are interested in having sex, but not in having conversation. And this is the present problems of many who have falling in to the sneer of having to rape another, or talk another into an ungodly life style

Let get a little bit more deeper has we see scriptures

WHAT EXACTLY Is LOVE?

I know , for sure you will be quick to say God is love ,so that will further mean that everything about him is what point us to love …… but wait a minute , if God is , how do we make the person of God affect us? how do we all his attribute affect us
There is quite a lot in the Bible about love. As a matter of fact — according to Matthew 22:34-40, every command that is written in the Bible stems from love! Either loving God, or loving your neighbor (that is, anyone and everyone that you come into contact with). It even tells us about the ultimate example of love in Jesus Christ taking the punishment we deserve by laying down his life for us so we can be forgiven for our sin.

But perhaps the most well known passage about love is 1 Corinthians 13 where we get a list of all the things that define what love IS and what it IS NOT. Love IS NOT envious, boastful, proud (self glorifying), rude, self seeking or easily angered, and it does not hold stuff against one another! Rather, love IS patient, kind, truthful, protecting, and hopeful, it never fails, but always perseveres with the other person, even when it is hard and you don’t really feel like doing it! In other words, love is other-person-centered. It is all about putting the person who you love first, even before yourself… and sometimes at your own expense!

SO WHAT EXACTLY IS LUST?

The Bible also says a lot about lust! And the book of Proverbs is full of helpful hints & tips and is a must read for every young and growing Christian! Other passages to read are Matthew 5:27-30, Romans 1:18-32 & 2 Samuel 11, where King David lusts after an attractive young girl & ends up breaking most of the 10 commandments in one day! When you read these passages you’ll see that lust NEVER ends well, and that’s because it stems from a sinful heart.
At the core of lust is selfishness, disrespect and a lack of self control, none of which are valuable characteristics in God’s eyes. Lust is self-centered. It is all about putting your desires first, without giving a thought to the person that you are lusting after. This generally plays out differently for guys and girls. Usually guys lust after the physical i.e. what they can see or touch, whereas for girls it’s usually more emotionally based i.e. what makes them feel good or special. But of course, everyone is different and this is not always the case for everyone.
Now the challenge is for you to be totally different, and unique, setting the boundaries by grace and the influence of the holy spirit . ill shear with you 15 powerful ways to fight against lust and set the boundaries right

15 WAY TO FIGHT AND WIN THE POWER OF LUST

1.Stop tempting yourself.;

Porn and other tempting images are not good for your eye gate

2.Learn respect for yourself and others;

If you allow lust to be the driver in your daily relations with others, then you’re not connecting fully with yourself.

3. Avoid drugs and alcohol.;

Drugs and alcohol remove your inhibitions, making it harder for you to fight lustful feelings. If you partake in these, stop.

4. Acknowledge your needs; .

Most holy books acknowledge that sexual desire is normal, so don’t feel bad about having sexual needs. Acknowledge them, because not doing so can create a very unhealthy mentality and make those feelings even stronger! Let yourself feel sexual feelings but do not act on them.
Brothers listen closely , that you are having erections(which is normal –thou not in all cases ) does not mean that you should follow the direction of your erections

5. Be prepared. ;

If you go in unprepared, then of course you’re going to have problems. Acknowledge that you have issues with lust and then prepare yourself when you know you will be going anywhere with temptations. Preparing yourself mentally and having a game plan is half the battle..Joseph knew how to do this .. don’t sit down there and be tonguing …carry your legs and run …

6; Bounce your eyes. ;

When you go somewhere where temptation is strong, follow the practice of bouncing your eyes. This means that if you see something that can cause lust, immediately find something else to look at. This is a very handy practice and can help a lot.

7 Pray or recite a memorized verse.;

Another way to distract yourself would be to recite, either aloud or in your own head, any verse you know. This can remind you of God’s love and help you keep his laws.
8. Avoid the causes of your temptation.

9. Hang out in groups. ;

If you cannot avoid the person who causes you to lust, you’ll need to find a healthier way to interact with them. One option would be to only spend time together when you are with other people. This will help keep you from saying or doing things you shouldn’t.

10.Walk in the Spirit. And Renew your mind ;

The next step is to submit your life to the Holy Spirit. “If you are guided by the Spirit, you won’t obey your selfish desires” (Gal. 5:16). Remember, you can’t fight lust on your own, so ask the Holy Spirit to help you. Focus on God’s Word and allow Him to remove your lustful thoughts and actions (Rom. 12:2). put away everything that appeals to the flesh and focus on God (Eph. 4:17-24; 2 Cor. 10:5).

11.Resist and flee.

Perhaps the best advice all is simply this: Run! Don’t allow lust to linger in your mind. Get far away from situations and influences that threaten to trap you (Prov. 5:8; James 4:7-8).

12. Partake in friendly activities.

This is a general way of distracting yourself , remember the idle mind is the devils workshop, you can help yourself to avoid staying alone and thinking evil … by engaging friends to discuss different issues of life …..

13. Do not touch them.(opposite sex )

Touching them, even if you just touch them in reasonable places like the hand or arm, can sometimes make lustful thoughts worse. Try not to touch them at all, if you’re really having trouble. This can help a lot.

14.Spend time together in safe places.

If even spending time only in groups isn’t helping, another option is to spend time with them only in places like a church, temple, or other holy meeting place. God will protect you and help you focus only on Him and not on your lustful thoughts.

15. Pray for God’s help.

God will help protect you from these unwanted feelings but you must work with him. He will send you help but you have to keep your eyes open and look for the solution that he has sent. This can be hard sometimes, but with the help of your friends, family, and spiritual advisers, you will get the help you need.
Paul the apostle made clear in his letter to the Corinthian church “No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.” – 1 Corinthians 10:13.

What is the difference?

The difference between love and lust is the attitude of your heart. If you’re in love, the attitude of your heart is one of selflessness, with the other person as your focus, whereas if you are in lust the attitude of your heart will be one of selfishness, with yourself as the focus.

True love is driven by a godly desire to provide for, nurture and care for the other persons needs, whereas lust is driven by an ungodly desire to provide for, nurture and care for our own sinful passions. When you love someone you choose to stick with that person at the expense of all others, even when it’s hard and you don’t want to! When you lust after someone, you get angry and throw in the towel as soon as you don’t get what you want, or you manipulate them until they do what you want them to do.

So… if you find yourself wondering about whether or not you’re in love, ask yourself “what is my heart attitude towards this person? Is it one of selflessness or selfishness? Am I willing to put the hard yards in, even when I don’t really want to, or will I probably throw in the towel when things get tough? Do I want to invest into this person, or is it just about fulfilling my human desires?” The answer to these questions will be a sure indication of whether you are in love, or lust.

LUST FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF HEALTH By Brother OLOJEDE PAUL( Relationship &Health Weekend IGO)

Tonight II will be teaching on the health aspect of lust

Firstly what do we call LUST is the outward/inward attraction of man to a thing of significance or insignificance.

Lust in so many ways has been an hindrance in the health aspect of many believing and unbelieving youth, adult and children of this generation.

What Lust has caused is something the mouth or eyes can’t explain but I must say people in this category never know or does not know they are in a mess already health wise.

We focus on the outward attraction and forget the inward damage

One particular thing I have noticed is that no matter how good a thing look once you list after it that is once you get addicted to it you damage your health not just physically but spiritually.

Lust is a bad thing in the spiritual and physical world but we don’t know what it truly is consuming in our health.
I have been in this shoe and I must say the damages of then were only revived by His grace
Once you Lust you get addicted to that very thing and it eats you up spiritually, physically and mentally, So far as your health is concerned it rejects every form of addiction

Once addiction sets in it eats you up. Before I give us the types of addiction/lust and address they let me tell us this story.

Few years back while I was still roaming on my way to influence I got attracted to the things that pertained to it. I was so engrossed that I lost count or target of what I was really into leaving myself in the dark.

2. Influence

In this case we all aspire to show the world the stuff we are made of, but wait are you watching it? Addiction comes in so many forms. It comes in your wants.
Don’t get too close to getting influence and forgetting all the aspects of health its dangerous, What will be the use of the influence if all aspect of the your health is down? Think about that.
Influence will just be like a paper to you, why because your addiction for it has affected your health.

3. Fame

I know many of us knows what I am trying to drive at here already
But listen to this
We have so many great men in the society we have so many great preacher of the gospel doing fine and still having a better health despite the fame they have, Yes I know.
But let me tell you this you can never get addicted to Fame and get it, Its not possible
The addiction for fame will kill your vision, this is how worst it is, and once your vision is dead your health follows.
This has been the major goal of so many youths and adults in the society right now, they crave for fame without knowing what stands behind it. All they want is just that fame and on the long run they loose it and fail at health once its lost, one thing is you need go to go Global.
This is the right frame of mind to get fame, don’t get too attached to it, lust not after the things of the world. The scripture also says “Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and all other things will be added unto you” this includes fame.
It doesn’t say you should lust, so never get too attached it gets you down.

4. Recognition

This is one of the major thing that kept me running till date, as long it sounds so is also the numerous problems attached to it, getting attached to it is deadly to your health. Once you get too entangled and addicted to it you forget the health part of life. Recognition makes you get too much responsibility and addiction if you are not on the right path, Once you get too addicted to recognition you feel you have gotten it already whereby you are on the path of lust

5. Drug addiction

This is what we all know, this is the part of life so many youths are getting too addicted to, they get too engrossed and get themselves knocked out. This part we all know very well, their health gets down and they get down spiritually, physically and mentally also.

6. Fleshly Lust;

This is one bad habit most of our young ones attach themselves in, they get down into sin spiritually, the spiritual health disability is the worst, and this fleshly lust is a weapon to it. So there we have it all the 6 lust and addiction.

Conquering you need to stay clear of them and get yourself entangled to the cross, this is the only weapon and road of escape from lust, stay on the right side of God let Him be your canoe out of the ocean of lust.

So here we have it for tonight thank you for staying up this moment.
