YOUNG PEOPLE SETTLE DOWN FOR GOD’S LEADING SO YOU DON’T LIVE A FRUSTRATED LIFE
YOUNG PEOPLE: LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP. DON’T SELL YOUR BIRTHRIGHT FOR A MORSEL OF MEAT.
ASK GOD WHAT IS HIS PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE AND SETTLE THERE.
MANY KINGS ARE SLAVES ALL AROUND THE WORLD FOR MISSING GOD’S LEADING.
A young man came to me, I mean one of my very close fellows. He said he was going to help the senior sister who just had a baby. That is normal, that is correct. I said how are you going? Because he didn’t have a car. He said I am driving. I said No! He was a good driver no doubt. He was going like someone who wasn’t going to listen to me. He didn’t have a car, so I said whose car are you using? He told me. I said call him for me, that car must not move an inch. He said but I have given him my words, I said are your words immutable? Sir! The young man died under two and a half hours. If I knew he would die, I would tie him down by chain.
The man was carless for eight years. He was trekking. Caution! Some fellows have lost their place in destiny because this place is far but that is where your blessing is. Stay where is near and miss your blessings. “Come over to this place, have no church in town”, we came. By his commandment see the blessing everywhere all around the world. You better settle down for His leading so you don’t live a frustrated life.
Don’t get out of this country until I tell you to. Yes sir. It is now five years. Do you have any regrets? Never! I have never had such a wonderful time like this in my life. I have never moved to Ghana or Benin Republic just behind my house. I could drive to Benin Republic. It is two and a half hours from my house. Awesome God.! Have we seen the impact in our life as a ministry as we saw in the last five years? That is when we saw 5,000 churches, 10000 churches planted in a year.
That is when we are building the highest number of sanctuaries at a time. I will never ask Him whether it is time or not. If He says don’t get out of this country forever. Thank you, Jesus. I have more than enough to do, where am I going to go? You better learn to embrace the agony of obedience so you won’t miss your enthronement. Jesus went through the agony of obedience to wear the eternal crown of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Young people, a strong word for you: look before you leap. Don’t sell your birthright for a morsel of meat, for hamburger. Look before you leap. Don’t jump from the frying pan to the fire. I have had all the opportunities in my life to live outside this country. Sensitive to what God is saying.
I learnt very early at 23, that my future is in His plan not in my plan. His plan brought us here. Now if you mention Ota and you mention my name I will tell you it is not possible. Ota for what. You better watch it, many kings are now slaves all around the world for missing their place. Proverbs 27:8. Ask God what is your plan for me? Settle in and watch God work wonders in your life.
