GOD’S INSTRUCTIONS MIGHT SEEM BRUTAL BUT THEY ARE THE BEST FOR YOUR LIFE
I HAVE TRIED TO MOVE AHEAD OF GOD MANY TIMES AND IT HAS ALWAYS ENDED IN DISASTER.
GOD’S CORRECTIONS CAN BE BRUTAL BUT IF YOU WANT THE BEST OUT OF YOUR LIFE IN THE KINGDOM, YOU MUST SUBSCRIBE TO IT.
More often than none, God’s instructions can appear very harsh. His corrections can be the most taunting. His rebukes can be brutal but if you want the best out of your life in the kingdom just subscribe. Some thought I was confused, I think they had a right to think that. I saw the emptiness in me and I knew I had to sit under the feet of this anointed fellow and train for ministry. I thought I was right. I saw Paul was in Arabia for three years and he came back exploding in revelations. Everything was in place, we were jubilating about the miracles that seemed to tar the path. The Lord said to me, that the things you look for do not come from abroad but from above. You are not going anywhere.
I came back and told them that God told me I am not going anywhere. What happened? We were going to Jos by our own conviction to start the ministry. After we had done the commissioning service, all the prayers were done.
The address was on the back of it and I went to thank Him about everything. He said it was not me you heard about going to Jos. You heard yourself.
In 1974 when you were playing table tennis around Jenta Area of Jos, you desired in your heart that if there is a place to live in future, Jos will be that place.
That was what you heard, not me. I came back to them and told them that we are not going to Jos again. You must be confused. No! You are not confused, you are being corrected. Those who will not be corrected will not be directed.
We had our satellite churches in Kaduna and some unsavoury things were happening that we were not used to. A child of a Pastor was coming back from Church and a vehicle hit him, Jesus what is happening here? He said did I send you? So I sent for them to go and remove all the pulpits.
You don’t see the pulpit, you should know Church has been cancelled. When the time came for it. Boom! Eruption.
Several mega-churches in Kaduna to the glory of God. You better get ready for the agony of disobedience. Get ready for the insults and assaults or you give up on the line. We must be careful.
Why is nothing happening in Kumasi after six years? I am not there. Without Him, we can do nothing. What should we do? Shut it down. When the time came we invaded Ghana and all the devils couldn’t stop it. We have close to 200 vibrant Churches in Ghana today. I hated this location, it didn’t look sound to me, and it didn’t look right. It didn’t make sense But God said this is the place. So I trashed all my thinking because they are inferior to His thoughts, His ways are higher than our ways. See what God has done today.
All that saw me when I was fuming and saying this can’t be the place will think that I am confused. No! I heard a sharp correction from heaven. Here we are today. Please be open to His correction. Most of the time they are in the open.
