Let the Spirit of Lord comes down amen! Let the Spirit of the Lord comes down in Jesus Name, let the Spirit of the Lord from heavens comes down let the Spirit of the Lord comes down in Jesus Name. Let the anointing of the Lord comes down in Jesus Name, let the anointing of the Lord comes down in Jesus Name, let the anointing of the Lord from heaven come down let the anointing come down. Let the power of the Lord comes down in Jesus Name, let the power of the Lord comes down Amen, let the power of the Lord from heaven comes down let the power of the Lord comes down.

Yes Lord let your Spirit, anointing and your power come down in our mist this now that Your Name alone be glorify in our midst in the Name of Jesus. Thank You for being God indeed unto us, blessed Redeemer, who is like unto Thee? Great is Thy faithfulness O Lord, morning by morning new mercies I see, thank You for the privilege of being in the land of living to all You have created us to be. Father may Your Name alone be glorify forever and ever in Jesus amen!

Thank You for the gift of a new week and a blessed day, glory be to Your Name on high. How great are You Lord! Father, You are greatly to be Praise, receive all glory, all honour, all adoration in Jesus Name.

Beloved, how was your weekend? Hope you are doing great?  Good news! We are in the last lap of this month, how time fly, wow! How are you faring in our commission for the month. Remember this is our month of great exploits, how far is it with you in that area! Are at work or you are still on the drawing table? We are at the finally lap, hope that you will make a move before the month is over? May the Lord help you to be impactful to the hurting soul, the lost among you in Jesus Name.

The Lord is good all the time. Yes! He is good all the time. King Solomon in his book of Ecclesiastes advice us to sow all the time, whether in the morning, noon or evening, for you don’t know which will sprout up (Eccl 11:6).  And our topic text is also to be diligent in our walk with God not walking as fools but as wise redeeming the time.

Yes! we walk morning , noon, or evening as we don’t know which the Lord will grant grace upon first as the our time is in God’s hand, we don’t who He is standing our way that needs to be rescue speedily else time will be cut off and it will be late and had I know will come into it.

Beloveth, do you know also that we as Christian is also called to be diligent in the works of our hand, we must allow laziness to get hold of us else we will be a disgrace to the kingdom of God. My prayer has always been “God bless your children and make them willingly to be part of missions; taking gospel where is needed, helping those who the devil had laid snares on their path to hinder them from making heaven.

You may not know but daily the devil laid stumbling blocks on the path of the righteous to cause them to fall. We must therefore be diligent and ask God’s blessings in what we do so that we will help and encourage the wounded soldiers in the battle field to get back on their feet and keep going else they die or go back to the world.

Yes! are you surprise, here listen once save is not forever save, that is while every Christian must make him or herself a conduit of blessing else the same help you refuse to render will be given willingly by the other part and the victim though he or she knows that it is snare will walk into it because those you are positioned to be of help are rather selfish with their gifts, always remember, God love a cheerful giver, alleluia.

We are mandated to “redeem the time” and also commissioned to “go”. You don’t look far to see the perishing. They are all around us, in the neighborhoods, in the buses, as walk on the street, in the market places now even in the church of God, the devil has emboldened his agents to enter and mingle with the sheep. Our helpless leaders, who neither had discerning Spirit not vision cannot fish them out and a lot of mess going on in the church of God. May God build His church Amen!

Beloved as we round up this month in short while my plea with you is to be diligent in your walk with God, ask the Holy Spirit to help you and make you fit for His work. Let God bless the work of your hand so that you will impact the work of the kingdom.

Make a wise investment with your time, like Apostle Paul said though all things are lawful to me but not all things are expedient ;(1 Cor 6:12). Beloved as it please God to redeem you likewise make it a duty to work with the Holy Spirit to redeem others from going to hell. Alleluia Amen!

Let us discover more below:

See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Ephesians 5:15–16

These days we are bombarded with opportunities that entice us to invest our time and energy. Each day the voices of urgency cry out for every available moment. So many causes promise that time spent on them will reap great rewards; how can we recognize God’s voice among so many competing voices?

A fool makes unwise choices with his time. With every new opportunity that comes along, the fool chases off in a different direction, not questioning whether that is the best choice. The loudest voice gains his attention. At some point the fool discovers to his dismay that he has squandered the investment of his time.

The days in which you live are evil. Marriages are under tremendous pressure; families are disintegrating. Multitudes are dying each year without hearing the gospel of Jesus Christ. Investing your life wisely is critical to you and to those around you. Foolishly spending your time in sinful or wasteful pursuits can cost you and others dearly.

Often, it is not evil pursuits that rob your time. Rather, the temptation is to sacrifice what is best for what is good. The enemy knows that blatantly tempting you with evil will be obvious, so he will lure you with distractions, leaving you no time to carry out God’s will. He will tempt you to so fill your schedule with good things that you have no time for God’s best.

You may inadvertently substitute religious activity for God’s will, pursuing your own goals for God’s kingdom instead of waiting for His assignment. Time is a precious commodity. Be sure to invest it wisely.

Yes! time is a precious commodity, let invest it well, go when we are urge to “go” either in prayer or physical or through telephone, redeem the time  as the Spirit leads you, Praise the Lord! more on responding to Jesus commandment to “Go”

 

 “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” Matthew 28:19

 

Our Master commands us to “go.” We need permission to stay! The gospel is the account of Jesus’ leaving His Father’s right hand to go to Calvary. Jesus instructed those who wanted to be His disciples to leave their homes and their comforts and follow Him. Some insisted that they could not go yet because they still had to care for elderly parents (Luke 9:59–60). Others wanted to make sure everything was in order first (Luke 9:61– 62).

Still others expressed willingness to follow but wanted to know the details of what they would be doing (Luke 9:57–58). Jesus never excused those who struggled to follow Him. He made it clear that to follow Him meant He set the direction and they were to follow.

We can convince ourselves that Jesus does not really want us to adjust our lives, pointing to the success we are enjoying right where we are. Yet Jesus often told His disciples to go elsewhere in spite of the success they were experiencing. Peter had just pulled in the greatest catch of fish of his entire career when Jesus invited him to leave everything (Luke 5:1–11).

Philip was enjoying astounding success as an evangelist when the Holy Spirit instructed him to go to the desert (Acts 8:25–40). Success where we are can be our greatest hindrance to going where Jesus wants us to be.

If you become too comfortable where you are, you may resist Christ’s invitation to go elsewhere. He may lead you across the street to share the gospel with your neighbor or to the other side of the world. Wherever He leads, be prepared to go.

Philip obedience to the leading of the Holy Spirit led to the timely conversion of the Ethiopian eunuch and his subsequent baptism and this brought the gospel to African.  Beloved, do not neglect the urging of the Holy Spirit in soul winning, also making yourself useful to the Kingdom of God. Praise the Lord.

On this note dearly beloved, we declare the week open and we believe by the special grace of God we will have testimonies at the end in Jesus Name.

Remain blessed in Lord.
