Walking by Faith part 1

Dr. Wilfred Lai~ Senior pastor Jesus Celebration Center , Mombasa, Kenya

You need faith to get to where you are going.

God called Abraham to bless him and He has called you to bless you. You are not called to struggle, you are called to be fruitful and to be blessed. You are called to live a life beyond your means. 

God called Abraham and told him, "I am God Almighty, walk before me and be blameless." As long as a child of God is living a life that is pleasing to God, then he/she becomes a candidate of God's blessing upon their lives and every word that God has spoken concerning them will come to pass.

The foundation for God to fulfil every promise that He has given to us is that we must live and walk before Him blameless. In Genesis 17:1-2, we see the call of Abraham;

"When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless. 2 And I will make My covenant between Me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.”

We read that Abraham was 99 years old, so he was already past the age of receiving what God had promised him. Hear me, you will not receive what God has promised you because you qualify physically; you will receive because you qualify spiritually.

Physically, Abraham had no ability to father a child but spiritually he was set to be a father according to the promise of God, because the promise of God can never fail.

The Third Level

When you live in the place of comfort, the devil becomes the MC (Master of Ceremony) in your life. When you want to pray, he does not set an alarm clock for you, he gives you a blanket to cover yourself. Those are the schemes of the enemy and you must confront him and get to your place of glory.

Rev. Justus Kimeu

Psalm 8:1 says that our God is excellent in all the earth. Man is created in the image and the likeness of God and has been given dominion but the failure to apply knowledge makes him fail. Many people are simply hearers. 
Mark 4:28 talks about three levels of growth, Matthew 13:8 talks about the three dimensions (30, 60, 100 fold). That is how man operates;if you engage yourself fully to the point of your soul, you get to the 100 mark. The order of God is three (Father, Son, Holy Spirit).

The Holy Spirit is the power and when you operate in all the three, you get to the 100 mark. In matters of the will of God, there are three levels; the good, the acceptable, the perfect. You have to pay a price to operate in that third level of the perfect will of God which is the 100 mark. Faith is also in three levels; justification, sanctification and glorification. Many people operate in the 1st two levels yet the third level is the 100 mark. Good, better, best are also three dimensions of performance. Best shows excellence and it is the 100 mark level. Unfortunately, most people operate on the level of average.

In the Old Testament, the Temple was built using three metals; bronze, silver and gold. It had three sections; the outer court (a common area for everybody), inner court and the Holy of holies. The third section is the place of glory and only the priest could enter once an year. Where are you operating from? Our invitation is not just the outer court, it is not even the inner court; our invitation is to the Holy of holies. Don't disregard yourself, don't accept to take what is not yours. 
We need to benchmark ourselves by the glory of God which is only found in the third level.

You and Your Pastor

Topic: You and Your Pastor

Speaker: Apostle Michael Wambua

Scriptures: Jeremiah 3:15, Isaiah 5:13, Amos 3:7, Hosea 4:6, 2 Samuel 23:15-16, 1 Samuel 14:7

You are supposed to understand that your Pastor/Man of God is a gift from God. When you come to the house of God, you are supposed to be ready to receive knowledge and understanding. When you have a God given Pastor, there is no way you can be taken to captivity. When you are in church, don't just count yourself as a member; you are a partner.
God will never do anything in your life before passing through the heart of your Pastor. Whatever is supposed to happen in your life is not in the heart of God but in the heart of your Pastor and it is your sensitivity to what is in him that will connect you.
If you want to access the Grace and the Anointing in the man of God in this ministry, you should be close enough to access the desire of his heart. From today, never wait for somebody to do what you are supposed to do. Don't say that the deacons will do it, don't say that another person will do it. You are alone; you and your man of God.
We see from the scriptures that only three mighty men of David understood what was in his heart. in any church today, only 10% understand what is the heart of their Pastor and those are the ones who access the anointing.
Men of God carry great desires in their hearts which are given by God. When you are following a man of God, it can be dangerous but the anointing in his life will protect you.
