Seed Time and Harvest Time Will Never Cease ~ Dr. Wilfred Lai

Dr. Wilfred Lai ~ Senior pastor, Jesus Celebration Center

What a mighty God we serve! He watches our going out and our coming in. It is wonderful to be back home and to see all of you. Jesus is Lord! It doesn't matter what you are going through or what you are feeling. Jesus is Lord over the tall, over the short, over the devil and the demons and over those who love Him and those who mock Him. Those who mock Him are just doing so ignorantly because one day they will bow before Him. Jesus is not one of the lords, He is the Lord and all the great bow before Him.

Genesis 8:20-22
There are certain things that will never cease as long as the earth remains. Whatever a man sows, He will reap. Man is responsible for the seed and God is responsible for the harvest. I want to show you something that will change your life.The Holy Ghost will always prompt you and when you don't listen, you delay your life. The year 2016 is our year of health and prosperity. How will you get it? Serve the Lord your God (Exodus 23:25). The enemy will always want to delay the people of God by making them ordinary. Let me tell you, God saved you to be different and you are not supposed to be like everybody else. The Holy Ghost is like a wind, He will prompt you to move in the direction of your blessing. You are not called to struggle but to be blessed and when you are blessed you become a blessing. God brought you here to be covered by the six anointings that I carry and one of them is to have money. If you don't want to be blessed you are in the wrong church.

When the waters resided and Noah came out of the Ark, God did not tell him to built an altar and offer sacrifice but Noah knew life has begun and when life begins, you turn to the giver of life. God doesn't ask you to give what you don't have, God gives seed to the sower. The moment you become a sower, God will give you seed. Let me explain seed; its the beginning of life. Everything that is alive begins with seed. Every time you become a sower, your life of prosperity begins. I know seed is a word that the church has begun fearing because the devil has started using it. The most important seed is not material, it's the word. Jesus said (John 6:63) that His word is Spirit and life. I am what I am today by the grace of God because of the revelation that I have about seed. Everything that I have is a result of seed. I am a very hard working person but I don't work to succeed, I work hard because God command us to do so. Laziness is sin, when you idle around, you are a sinning believer! That's why 2 Thessalonians 3:10 says he who does not work should not eat. What happens when you don't eat? You die. You should never die premature so wake up and work!  God will bless the work of your hands so that you can have seed, if you don't put your hands into something, God has nothing to bless. Noah labored for 100 years to get the people of his time to turn to God and he build a very big Ark, can I call it church? Just like today, we labor to preach the word but some laugh and push it away. If you read the scripture carefully, you will notice Noah was told to take 2 pairs of the unclean animals in the Ark but 7 pairs of the clean animals. Why? God was preparing seed for Himself ahead of time. In Genesis 9:1, God blessed him and told him to be fruitful- God was not only talking about having children because if you get 20 of them, what will you feed them on, how will they go to school? - That is the original blessing. It is the same one that was given to Adam in the garden of Eden.What is it that prompted God to give Noah that blessing? It is in Genesis 8:21.

Do you remember when God cursed the ground after Adam sinned? When the ground is not producing and the rain does not come at the right time, its a sign of a curse. Dry places are habitations of demons. In places where they practice witchcraft, it doesn't rain and when it rains it's disastrous. It was never in the plan of God for man to live in poverty. Poverty is a curse. When you have enough, you are still poor. You are rich if you have more than enough. The curse of poverty does not start with lack of money but lack of communion with God. If you are feeding your children on tithe, you are just killing them. If you are not giving tithe from your business, you are just killing it.

May you begin to obey everything that is written in this word because it is for your good. When the Holy Spirit prompts you, move! Don't give an excuse. That way, you will be fruitful and fill the earth.

A New heart to Posses your Possessions ~ Rev. Justus Kimeu

Rev. Justus Kimeu ~ Jesus Celebration Centre

The life that God has called us to live as believers is a contested life. The devil is envious and threatened by what God wants you to become.
Ezekiel 11:13-25, Matthew 9:17

Ezekiel is lifted in a vision and showed the entire house of Israel under oppression and their land given out. I want to say today in the name of Jesus, you are going to posses your possessions. What God has given us as an inheritance, we will not allow the enemy to steal it away. The children of Israel were in captivity and that is why their land was taken. So many of us are in captivity today and that is why we have not possessed our possessions. God said He will give the Israelite's their land. The first agenda to get back to God is repentance. When you take away what is not acceptable, you are ready to receive what is acceptable. In verse 19, God says He will give them one heart and give them a new Spirit.

The plan of God for all of us seated here is that we have one heart and God will put a new Spirit in the one heart and remove the heart of stone. A stony heart is one that is used to doing things in a certain way and does not change, even when it rains, it remains the same. A stony heart leads to stiff neck and that is why the glory of God not stay with the Israelite's because they were a stiff necked people. God wants to give you a heart of flesh that can be teachable and accommodates God.
There are two types of people; those who walk in their own way and those who walk after God. The difference is spiritualism and carnality. You can be anointed in two ways; by God to walk in the Spirit or by the devil to walk in the flesh and be carnally minded. The devil may not take you to captivity but he puts a yoke in your life. It controls you freedom and makes you do the things that you don't want; you want to pray but you cant. When the devil bewitches you(Gal 3:1), you dont obey the truth, you begin to obey yourself and when you continue like that, your heart becomes a stone but I want you to know that it is possible to break the yoke (Isaiah 10:27). When God anoints you with power, it fattens you and on that same day, whatever the devil had organized to destroy you is destroyed. I want you to desire today that a new heart and a new Spirit will come over you. That thing that you desire, that thing that you used to have, you can't get it until you get a new heart and a new Spirit because a crafty heart of flattery will not get there. Have a sincere and steadfast heart before God. I pray that God will rise and fight whatever has been standing against you and put it in perpetual shame! I pray that there will be a new standard of obedience, faithfulness and love so that the glory of God will come over us. I pray that you will follow God fully and that the spirit of the enemy will not take you out of your possesion

Petitioning Your Case Part 3 ~ Rev. Justus Kimeu

Rev. Justus Kimeu ~ Jesus Celebration Centre, Mombasa, Kenya

Many times when we set ourselves to pray, prayers return to us unanswered. That happened to David in Psalm 35:13. When that happens, you need to know one secret; the power of mercy. When God deals with you according to His mercy, pure grace will come to you. 

Matthew 15:21-28 
The Canaanite woman came to Jesus asking for mercy because she knew where there is mercy there is no law. She called Jesus Son of David (people who called Jesus in that name had a revelation) but He kept quite.

When that happens to you, never forget this; He is still there. The disciples came to Jesus and told Him to send her away because she was now crying after them. This woman was a persistent woman, in verse 24 Jesus tells her He was only sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. I want you to know that those who have a revelation knows that He came for all! Refuse to be refused! The woman, even after such an answer knelt before Him, called Him Lord, worshiped and asked for mercy. When you are not able to hear God, worship Him because He can never ignore worship. Speak in tongues and you will be amazed at how He will come through for you.

You can never petition a case if you are just a weakling. If you are easily discouraged, you can’t fight spiritual battles! Even when people despise you, still worship God because you never came for them, When the woman silenced the disciples, they never spoke again. The best way to fight your enemies is to go to a higher level. The problem with you is that you go back to your enemies to answer them. 

So many people appear before God like victims looking for sympathy but nothing should be an excuse for you to appear before God weak. How long will you look for sympathy while God is looking for your faith? When the Shunammite woman lost her child, she didn’t look for sympathy (2 Kings 4), she knew she could petition! Some of you quit just before your miracle, you need to know God is there and is a rewarder of those who seek Him diligently. You have the right to petition and He has the power to decide otherwise! You need to know who your God is, you need to be persuaded of His and power and that is why the woman in Luke 18:1-8 could not be stopped! You can never petition if you don’t have faith but if you have faith, you have the answer. When you have faith, you have authority over God and that is why King Hezekiah (2 Kings 20) changed what God had said. 

The daughters of Zelophehad petitioned against the law and Moses had to go before God to ask for direction concerning them. God gave their petition and their case became a precedent for the rest (Numbers 27). It doesn’t matter what they have written or said about you, let your case be the precedent of how others should be handled! How long will you stay with your case? Whatever you have given up on and you have even started saying, ‘sio mapenzi ya Mungu’ (it’s not God’s will) arise and bring it to God because there is no situation that can challenge Him!

Word Explosion Camp Meeting 2016 Invite ~ Bishop Wilfred and Mrs. Rita Lai

God spoke to me and said, prepare my people because I am bringing the Church into 7 years of harvest. They are going to be the greatest years that you have ever lived and those things that you have longed to see will be fulfilled in this season. 2 years of the harvest have already elapsed. There are still 5 more years to go. 

Five is the number of Grace; it speaks of what you will receive without your effort or being smarter than those around you. In this season, God is bringing you to a place where you will ride on another man's favor. 

Welcome to the 24th Word Explosion Camp Meeting. We challenge all Pastors and Church Leaders to come and be partakers of this great move of God.

God bless you as you plan to attend. May the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be your portion in this great season of Revival. We love you and we are praying for you. Shalom!

Petitioning Your Case ~ Rev. Justus Kimeu

Rev. Justus Kimeu ~ Jesus Celebration Centre, Mombasa

Enemies have no reason to attack empty people.

Daniel 6:4-18

There are many reasons and grounds that can bring a charge against you. Most of the battles against your life are as a result of your potential or success. If there is nothing happening against you, you are  not going far. If you see opposition against your children, its because they have a great future. The governors and satraps looked for reasons to accuse Daniel on the basis of his work but they found none because he was faithful and so they decided to accuse him on the basis of his faith. If your enemies are against you, they will put a charge which they think you cannot survive. So the king signed the decree but Daniel went on to pray as was his custom. I have realized one of the dangers of Pentecostal Christians is that when they get blessed, they don't dwell in the house of God anymore.

Philippians 4:6 says we should not be anxious but pray. Those who are able to pray are able to petition in whatever situation. Daniel petitioned for what could not be altered or changed according to the laws of Medes and Persians. They went to the king to accuse Daniel but he had already gone to the heavenly King.You need to know where power is! The king was displeased with himself and in verse 18, he spent the night awake and in fasting. That was a Babylonian king yet so may Christians despise fasting; they are too selfish, self-contained, self-sufficient and proud.

Isaiah 40:23 confirms that our God is able to make the judges of the earth useless. Our God is a mighty God, He is able to make useless judgments and everything else that has been decided against you. Those who conspired against Daniel together with their families were crushed by the lions even before they touched the ground. God will rise on your behalf and crush whatever has been decided against you. In verse 28, Daniel who was supposed to perish prospered! There is power in petitioning! I announce under the anointing that you will not perish but you will prosper!

Opposition And Resistance ~ Bishop Thomas Kakala

Bishop Thomas Kakala ~ JCC Malindi 

Opposition and resistance is our driving force for success.

Acts 4:1-20
If you are going to make an impact anywhere you are, you have to know opposition is your hour for elevation. The eternal purpose of God over your life cannot be stopped by anything whatsoever. I want to tell somebody here that the God we serve is a mighty God and there is no problem He can't handle. The story in the above quoted scriptures tells us Peter, John and James; disciples who were once cowards but after they waited in the upper room, they received power to do great things. Their work caught the eyes of the rulers, elders, scribes, priests and the sadducees until they questioned them which kind of power they were using. May the Lord help you to receive transformation until people are left in wonder! In verse 17-19, when they were told to stop speaking in the name of Jesus, they stayed put. That is called boldness and that is what the church needs now more than ever before! The church must stand tall because we are the light and we are the salt.

Peter, John and James were beaten and put in prison, but it could not hold them. We the church must know the devil is targeting us but we are on the winning side because Jesus won our victory!

To Conquer And Occupy Part 2 ~ Dr. Wilfred Lai

Dr. Wilfred Lai ~ Senior Pastor, Jesus Celebration Centre, Mombasa, Kenya

"For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God, for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is complete," 2 Corinthians 10:4-6.

When revival tarries, a lot of wickedness starts going on and the church cannot even talk about it because it's obedience is not complete. I want to show you seven powerful weapons that pull down strongholds. A stronghold is something that is so strong and its not easily broken. The weapons will also help you cast down arguments and bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. Let me tell you, you cannot be better than the way you think. If you think you are weak, you will become a weakling. You must build your thinking capacity so that you are not thinking sin, defeat and failure. Think about those things that are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, praiseworthy and of good report. 

Ephesians 6:10-18 
You must be strong in the Lord. You must play your part; God will not pray for you, you must pray and be where the word is being preached. You must be strong in prayer, word, fellowship and giving. You must build your capacity. You can't have one meal a week and that is why here we have many services. Put on the whole armor  of God; the way you take care to look good on the outside, take care to look good inside.

1. Breastplate of righteousness 
2. Belt of truth 
3. Feet ready to preach the gospel
4. Shield of faith
5. Sword of the Spirit
6. Helmet of salvation
7. Praying in the Spirit always

 When you dress up like that daily, you can never be defeated. Those weapons will help you stand against what the enemy is scheming against you.

To Conquer And Occupy ~ Dr. Wilfred Lai

Dr. Wilfred Lai ~ Senior Pastor, Jesus Celebration Center, Mombasa

If you don't conquer, you don't occupy.

1 Samuel 17, 1 Timothy 6:12
Let me tell you, the Almighty God does not give you something that is gathering dust for you to go, wipe it and occupy, whatever He gives you is already occupied and you must go and conquer! I said revival comes when God shows up. God does not only show up as a healer, provider and all these other aspects, He also shows up as a fighter. He comes to take away the reproach of His people. When you live in the presence of God, you cannot loose a battle. The Bible tells of how the children of Israel were faced by a battle. Goliath looked at their armies and didn't see anybody who could match him physically. That's how sometimes people who walk with God look like. I came to tell you it doesn't matter how you look like, when God is with you, you can do great things. When David came to that valley, he was not even coming to fight but God was bringing him to fight. When he heard how Goliath defied the army of God, he asked what will be given to the person who will kill him. He was told that the king will enrich that man, give him his daughter in marriage and his family will be exempted from taxes. That is what happens when you conquer. There are some giants that have been setting up to defy you but I came to say when you conquer the Lord will enrich enrich you! When you conquer, you will join the royal family and your family will also experience the blessing!

David did not look like he could fight Goliath even before the eyes of Saul and his first battle was to fight those who didn't believe in him. For many of you, giants are not the problem but the people around you who don't understand your greatness has nothing with your physique, it has to do with what is in the inside of you because the one who lives in you is greater! You need a weapon to fight the word of men! David testified to Saul and told him that the Lord who delivered him from the bear and the lion will also deliver him from the sword, the spear and the javelin of the giant! David knew his challenge was God's challenge.You must have a testimony to overcome the fear that is created by men or by what you feel or see. Faith will explode when you are challenged and it does not come from the outside but from God because He is in you. Goliath saw David and mocked him. That's a good thing because when your enemies under estimate you, you will shock them! Goliath cursed David by his gods. A curse makes you weak, ordinary poor but David did not fear. Why? Anybody who is not over you cannot curse you and if they curse you, they are jokers! If you have been cursed, then you need a power that is greater than the one who cursed you to reverse the curse and I came in my Apostolic office to reverse every curse upon your life! You need to know you have a name that is greater than the one who cursed you; the name of Jesus!

1 Timothy 6:12 says we fight the good fight. How do you fight? Through the good confession; saying what God says. It is the testimony that you give among many witnesses. We must testify because if you can talk about what God has already done, He will do what He wants to do. The enemy does not have a body, he uses those who have bodies and sends them to you to water down what you are hearing right now! I tell you the truth, those people who come to tell you what you can't do are sent by the devil and they might not even know it, some could be your friends and family members! I want you to know that you will be like David! David could only fight because he was in revival, Saul had already lost it. You are not going to kill the giants or conquer your enemies by physical means, you need to begin seeking God like gold and silver; seek Him early in the morning - don't sleep when you are supposed to pray- get loaded and connect to the power! If you believe what I am teaching this morning, no devil or man will be able to stop you! Your time to conquer and occupy has come.

The Realm Of The Spirit ~ Dr. Wilfred Lai

Dr. Wilfred Lai~ Jesus Celebration Center, Mombasa

I want you to understand the realm of the spirit is real. God declared everything that we see from the realm of the spirit. When you understand this, you will be able to pray effectively and two, you will be more focused because sometimes the things that we see around us distract us from following what God has for us.  

Numbers 22 & 23
Altars are used to bless and also to curse. From the above scriptures, Balak who is the King of Moab calls Balaam who is a prophet of the other world- a diviner- to curse the children of Israel so that he may overcome them. That is the power of the spiritual realm; curses. That is what they use to stagnate the people of God. I want you to understand, everything that is hindered; may be a ministry in you, your business, your family life, is all controlled from the realm of the spirit. The children of darkness understand this more than the children of light because it is not taught a lot. Balak even sent elders to Balaam with a diviner's fee. You need to understand the world of the spirit so that when you pray you release something and that is why you cannot afford to pray with your mouth shut! Life and death is in the power of the tongue, so don't pray those religious prayers of saying you are praying in your heart. 

Balaam was a man who was high in the realm of the spirit, whoever he cursed was cursed and whoever he blessed was blessed. Do you know when you are walking with God and God is on your side your enemies know? God meets Balaam on his way to curse the children of Israel and stops him. When you see God coming to meet with a diviner, he was dangerous! God will meet with those sorcerers before they curse you because He is your defence! Sometimes, we don't understand that the one who is in us is greater than the one who is in the world. However, He cannot operate in us without our knowledge. How does He operate? By you opening your mouth and releasing power in the name of Jesus! In the realm of the spirit demons must know you and angels must know you! That is why you need to stay connected to the altar because when you are playing church, demons see you naked!

God stopped Balaam from going to curse the children of Israel but when he disobeyed, God became angry and sent an angel with a sword against him and until the donkey started talking, Balaam had not seen the angel and when he did, he bowed down. When your enemies bow down, finished! They are under your authority. So when he went to the king of Moab, he could not curse the people of God even when Balak tried to take him on different mountains (altars) of the gods of Moab. 
What is the evidence that God is with you? Blessing! When God is in a ministry, there is a blessing and nothing can stop that. So why does your enemies do better than you? That can only happen if they have someone somewhere cursing you. 

If you don't understand the realm of the spirit, you will ask, " why does pastor tell us to wake up so early while others are sleeping?" You don't know where you are, you are anointed to do something dangerous! The devil has fought your prayer so that you don't stay connected to the power that is in this altar. Where we are going, we cannot afford to play church games!
