Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.”
1 Tim 6:12
Have you ever met someone you knew to be of great ability to turn out into a failure? I have met many of them, and it’s heart-breaking, and I alwalys try to inspire many of those I meet. Sometimes, you just wonder ,” What happened with this guy?” In my little research, I noticed some of those folks joined themselves to bad companies, and that completely changed their lives. Some folks met with difficulties and could not fight their way out. Both cases of failure, however, are satanic, and this is why God has sent me to preach the gospel and give man a victorious life through Christ Jesus. After we had fought a good fight in school ministering the gospel to thousands, my friend said to me something I will never forget ,” Sir, we are now entering the world , we need to be strengthened”.
The first thing I noticed was the difference in how people responded to inspiration. Students would come to our meetings easily in hundreds, but outside there, it was different. The elderly ones seemed to be too hurt to even pay attention to anyone offering divine solutions. It was one day that I went preaching that a man told me that he had killed many people, he stayed alone in a very big beautiful house but didn’t enjoy life, he contemplated suicide. This was a new experience to me, I know of some good footballer who is now a drug addict, a once smart mind who is now into prostitution. I say this to you, ” Whatever challenge that may have crushed your potential or turned you into something you are not, I want you to know that there is power in God to put you over. You can stand tall again, you can be celebrated again, you can become a star again. Don’t ignore the call to be helped since you may have failed by yourself to get yourself standing on the way of success through the word we can get you cleaned up. Jesus said in John 15:3 ” Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.” Through the word and the spirit, you will re-discover yourself and the LORD says in Joel 2:25 ” And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm…” That means your end will be greater than your beginning. God does not invite you to be helped of you, God is the one who wants to lift you from the mud, you don’t have to have an offering before he can lift you, you don’t have to be perfect for him to care about you, all you have to do is to make up your mind against failure.
In 2024, we will help many pick up their abilities, which may have gone down the drain. Some will go back to school, some will re-open their businesses, some will start training for world championship games, but none of us shall accept defeat and by the power of the spirit we will all triumph in our areas of interest. Challenges will come, and we will chew them, we will push down walls of limitation, and they will come down in the name of Jesus. By year end of 2024 we will see that God has put into our hands that which we dreamt of. Like those who came to David in distress and debt, many will be raised to be mighty men and women, and they will become giants in the land. Hallelujah
