A story was told of a professor who was a theologian. He took his student for an excursion to places that would intense their beliefs and theological experiences.
He then took the students to the house of a renown revivalist named JOHN WESLEY. And they arrived his inner cohorts where they found two patches on the ground and it is said that those two patches was the place John Wesley always kneel to pray.
He had prayed so much on that spot that the patches on the ground were evidences of his prayers.
The professor then walked the students out and while they entered their bus, he decided to count them. Then, he found out that one of them was missing.
He had to go back inside to search. He finally found that one in the room of JOHN WESLEY.
The young student knelt on those two patches and he prayed this prayer… Lord, WON’T YOU DO IT AGAIN WITH ME.
LORD, WON’T YOU WROUGHT REVIVAL AGAIN WITH ME
And guess who this young student was… It was BILLY GRAHAM. And indeed, God did great things with Him.
Are you one reading this right now desiring a dimension in God… Praying endlessly day and night for God to touch your generation through you.
Listen, God can do it again through you.
But the question is… Are you willing to pay the price of staying?
Are you willing to let your flesh be slain on the Lord’s abbatoir?
Are you willing to drop that negative motive of which you seek God?
Are you ready to let the world see God through you and not just you?
As I type, I’m praying for you and myself also. May God find us useable as a vessels into honor.
You are online daily begging those abraod to invite you to come and preach to 10 people in their churches…
But in Nigeria, you refuse to preach when they invite you to preach to 50 people..
You are ready to pay for your flight ticket; your accomodation fee and even visa fee …
So that you will add it to the profile you use to intimidate your mates in Ministry…
But when a small church invites you to a program in your country, if they don’t have money for 5star hotel reservation you will not go…
And every year, you carry both money, goat and cow to sow to papa Uma Ukpai so that you will manifest what he is manifesting…
It’s really well, friends …
Papa Uma will eat your cow and goat ..
But yet, in the school of kingdom value, God will declare you a truant …
Papa Uma did not make Himself…
Many years ago, his burden for the lost, wherever they were seperated him among his equals…
Whoever taught my Generation that you must recover the money you spent in organizing programs is the person that did this to us…
That is why we think that we must gain in everything we are doing for God…
I am not interested in any OIL that can be bought with fat envelope…
If it is just by few naira or dollars that you will access ancient oil, go ahead…
What some of us were shown in the beginning of this walk with God can only be paid for by pain…
Following your mates who are looking for comfort in the beginning of their walk with God is a sign that you are under attack…
The man you want to be like spent the first 20 years of his life preaching without honouraium and hotel reservations…
And you think that after eating your goat and cow that you will manifest what he is manifesting…
Wake up, sir!…
What you are looking for is not cheap…
The cost of the oil you want to manifest is not in Uyo…
The road to America and London is not through the embassy…
The easiest way to go abroad is from that village where God planted you…
In the fullness of time, the visas others are looking for will be looking for you…
Ministry is not a survival scheme, where people run into to use their profile to rob shoulders..
Ministry is a place where men come in to lose all for Jesus…
And if by chance, it pleases God to reward us with material things, then, so be it…
But if not, visas or no visas, as long as your ministry is blessing lives wherever you are…
In the eyes of eternity, you are a superstar…
Beware!…
That old woman that comes to your church everyday to be blessed is increasing your profile before God…
Those young boys and girls God is using your teachings to give direction in life in that village are reporting you before angels…
From the vista of spirits, you are worth more than your mates who are flying all over the place, preaching to crowd just to beef up their godless profiles…
Many years ago, God told me to give Him my first 15years in ministry and that He will give me the ears and the tears of my Generation…
By His grace and to His glory alone, in the midst of pains, weaknesses, shame, hunger, homelessness and starvation, we have been on that course…
And we are trusting that in the fullness of time, He will fulfil His own part of the bargain…
But even if in His wisdoms, He chooses not to, it will not change anything…
We don come be say we don come…
Man of God, it doesn’t matter the popularity of the man that is endorsing that ministry that has not cost you anything…
In the days of reckoning, it will be obvious that you failed yourself…
I am talking to only those who have no one anywhere they are competing with…
Those who doesn’t want to use ‘success’ in ministry to show there mates that they are doing better…
There is a path you will take for Jesus, and it will become impossible for God not to put a seal of distinction on you…
The more you are running around great men, the more you are announcing that your life is empty of kingdom sacrifices…
It was on the place of pain and kingdom foolishness that Abraham stood that made him tell that king:…
“i will not take these things from you, so that you will not say that you made Abraham rich…”
It is only a man that knows the value of his sacrifice in God that can say such a thing…
I wish kingdom value comes by association…
I wish it comes by laying of hands and sowing of financial seeds…
Many who are richer in cattles would have been manifesting some expensive dimensions in our days…
But alas!
God is not a respecter of persons…
It is only those that sows in tears that have appointment to reap in JOY…
And before our eyes, they shall be called the JOY of many Generations…
Haleluya!
Don’t go back to the man that promises you that kingdom greatness comes through packaging envelope for great men …
He is either lying to you or he too is ignorant of the ways of the Cross…
I didn’t say that you should not sow to great men…
But after sowing, please, go back to that village and start praying with those Pawpaw and Orange trees in the compound …
Go back to that small church and start preaching to those empty seats…
Someday, they will become able witnesses before God that you have paid your dues…
Maybe, you don’t know that those lizzards that comes to see you alone in that church goes back to report to God…
May another bird not fly to that small church and go back to report to God that you have abandoned your few members in search of visa to America to go and preach to Oyibo…
Your call is not local…
You already have an international commodity…
But to process it, you must subscribe to self abandonment and embrace the emblem of suffering and shame …
Let them mock you… Let them say that you have lost it…
A time is coming when those that came to Zion with plan B will get tired and start begging you to show them your God…
Let us pray!
DON’T LET SHARING THIS BE A BURDEN TO YOU,YOU NEVER CAN TELL WHO YOU ARE BLESSING AND SAVING BY SHARING
