FULLNESS OF HARVEST IN THE DEEP

Happy new year.

Today we shall be together to learn once again from the our Lord Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit through his words. I was about looking for topic to discuss here. But my attention was drawn to the scripture our brother posted earlier as our guard on this platform for the year. There are few things the Lord want us to know about what our focus this year should be on this platform and even in our day to day experience.

 Beginning of new year always mark moment of reflection, planning, setting goals and every form of positive wishful thinking. Everyone always dream and envisioned prosperous year ahead. But over the years experience shows that only few make productive result from all the desires in their heart. In fact many of those January 1 dreams fade away before January 31. But here tonight, we shall examine important secret of living a life of fullness. A life of abundant harvest.

Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.  And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.  And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.  And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.  When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord. Luke 5:4-8 KJV

 This was a popular scripture. The story of Jesus in the boat of Peter. Brethren, Every man with resolution for success without having Jesus Christ in his boat may likely be in for fruitless labour. Some people might have set goals to earn more professional certification and higher degree this year just to have a better harvest. But without Jesus as your sailor. You may end this year frustrated again. No matter what our resolution for this year. There is one important resolution that must be daily made by everyone who long to enjoy fullness of harvest.

 And he said unto him, If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence. Exo 33:15 KJV

Like Moses, this must be our first priority. Daily abiding presence of God. So for those of us here on this platform who are not carrier of God's presence. Our first resolution for successful year must be to invite Jesus Christ into our lives. He has all power to put an end to unproductive labour. Hear me sir/ma. Now am talking to those of us whose boat Jesus Christ already residence. One important event that must happen before blessings manifest in the life of a believe is that you must be loaded first with the words of God. Many of us are expecting to be counting financial blessing in millions, material breakthrough etc almost immediately we release ourselves to Jesus Christ as vessels.

 Sir/Ma look up to Luke 5:4 again. The bible was specific that Jesus Christ  will begin manifestation in the life of any man by teaching THE WORD first. He won't just start talking/teaching but he will finish every ministry of words impartation before ministering Fullness.

When He had finished speaking, He said to Simon [Peter], “Put out into the deep water and lower your nets for a catch [of fish].” Luke 5:4 AMP

For many of us, Jesus Christ has not even started talking to us. We don't even recognize His voice. Yet we are daily longing for miracles. Every man that will launch into the deep of blessings must be that believer who not only gave his life to Christ. But that believer who daily like Mary seat at the foots of Jesus Christ to hear Him. That believer who waited until he is soaked with the words of God. Who had patiently wait until the time for divine instruction is come.

Sir/Ma Simon Peter and his team already had a sleepless night in search of success at the suppose right time. Professional fishing is done at night for great harvest. Daytime is usually less productive or total waste of time. In fact waiting for the teaching of Jesus Christ is likely the least fascinating thing they will like to do. After a whole night of failure.Someone would have expect Jesus Christ to just satisfied their desires immediately he stepped in. But THE WORD is more important.

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 KJV.

No man can retain blessing that is not birthed by the word of God. Fullness that is not a product of divine instruction after hearing the word will end in emptiness. Sir/Ma maybe you think now is suppose to be your season of great harvest. I tell you if Jesus Christ has not finished teaching you. You're not ripe for exploits. No matter how much strength you put into toiling day and night. If you don't find time for the word you will end up a poor man.

 Ignore the Word and suffer; honor God’s commands and grow rich. Proverbs 13:13 MSG

 Do you know the interesting part about talking and hearing sir/ma. If someone need to talk for 3hrs, the hearer also need 3hrs to be focus and attentive to get all the message. Any shift of attention will force the speaker to hold, thus increase the timing if all the speech must be said. Same in our hearing the teaching of Jesus Christ. Our focal scripture Luke 5:4 said He must finish speaking. Our failure to maintain focus and give full attention to His word will in turn extend our timing for divine instruction to launch into the deep of fullness of harvest.

No wonder there are a lot of toiling in the place of prayer, even in the right location(church) but no harvests. From the prayer points raised by many believers you can easily know that they are just toiling. No word of God in them. To welcome Jesus Christ into your life is the 1st step Sir/Ma. To allow Him teach you through the word of life until you're full is the 2nd step Sir/Ma.

Now the 3rd step which is what we all long for is divine instruction to launch into the deep. Sir/Ma, if any man learn from Jesus Christ until the time for divine instruction for fruitfulness. Such life will never see emptiness again. Note sir/ma. Divine instruction for uncommon breakthrough doesn't answers to human acceptable timing. It's beyond human wisdom. When divine instruction comes, success doesn't answer to protocols. When divine instruction come. The location for success is usually allocated by God. When divine instruction come, man will forsake his profession and take up divine assignment for soul winning. I believe this is what our leader is bringing to our focus this year on this platform by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Here on this platform this year, there shall be men who will accept Jesus Christ into their life, listen to His full teaching for their spiritual development and finally receive divine instruction to launch into the deep of fullness of harvest. Such harvest will provoke the grace for souls winning in them. I know I will be one in Jesus might name. Amen

This year we shall launch into deep of financial breakthrough. We shall launch into the deep of Marital breakthrough. We shall launch into the deep of material breakthrough. We shall launch into the deep of career breakthrough. We shall launch into the deep of all round breakthrough. But one thing is certain, everyone who God launch into such deep end up becoming Fisher of men. In other words everything God will bless us with this year will provoke grace for souls winning in our lives. Amen

Congratulations to everyone for this great move of God coming our ways. But please don't forget It can happen only in 3 simple steps. Salvation, Fullness of Jesus Christ teaching and the divine instruction to launch into the deep of fullness of harvest.

What is This? God's Principle of Meeting Christian Needs.

The mindset to develop as true child of God on our needs and daily provision was established in the scripture both old and new testaments. This revelation is important as many today still stay comfortably in Egypt with deception and false hope that they are fairing well on the road to Canaan. Many have enjoyed the grace established by Jesus Christ on the Cross when He said Father forgive them for they knew not what they are doing. But should children of God remained in Ignorance? Will it not lead to destruction and they too will perish with unbelieving world. Let us quickly examine one important principle of God's dealing with man in term of possession. And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.  And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron...

Church and Alcoholism.

Is Strong Wine or Beer acceptable in both old and modern Church? Text: Deuteronomy 14:22-26, 1 Samuel 1:1-19.  This is one of the controversial topic among Christian communities. The new testament Church want to know why the preachers of the Gospel discouraged the people from enjoying what God made provision for in Deuteronomy 14: 26. Let's go through this study together and see to what extent God's permission was given to difference classes of His creation to benefit, enjoyed or damage their life from all He made. It will interest you to know that there was a deliberate planting of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the centre of the first place of worship(Eden) in addition to other blessed trees. Genesis 2:16-17, 3:1-3. Questions of interest. 1. Why did God plant this? Omniscient. 2. Why put restrictions? Simply put; to prove our obedience and affirm our power of choice. 3. Why double standard, Genesis 1:29 granted permission to eat from all fruitful tr...

Eli, Eli, Lama Sabachthani? The cry of Sinful Saints.

Many people are under the yoke of different problems and difficult challenges emanating from finances, health, emotion, social and material needs. Prayers and supplications going up to God everyday in order to receive liberation from these evil works of the Devil. The torment when a man found himself in an unpleasant situations, forsaken, despised and rejected by men. I was deep in thought how difficult such situation may be until the revelation from God about what real suffering means hit me. There is a particular heartbroken, bone draining and devastating situation. If a child of God is found in sin, every other problems should be set aside to address it. Freedom from all other evil lies in victory won when believer ceased to be a Sinful Saint. What does it mean to be a Sinful Saint? That was the question I asked when the thought troubled my spirit until revelation from scripture ignites me with truth and reality about Saints who are living in sin. Many take sin so lightly with t...

Is restoration of the Kingdom to Isreal God's priority?

United State of America before had made several attempts and speeches about restoring Israel. Isreal on the other hand had fought several war from inception but the battle seems unending. They enjoyed support from some countries and rebukes from many. The climax happened recently when President Donald Trump in 2017 formally announced relocation of American embassy to Jerusalem with his declaration of Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel. The ultimate expectation of the declaration was echoed by American Evangelical Christian Movement; as rebuilding of Jerusalem Temple in readiness for the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. Restoration of Isreal Kingdom is that major to God than restoration of the kingdom of God to all nations? This same question was asked by Apostle almost immediately after resurrection of Jesus Christ before His ascension. The answer He gave reflect a better prophecy to any Christian body and the true mind of God for humanity. When men are eager to use authority...

Divine approach to forgiveness of deep hurt before sunset.

Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:  Neither give place to the devil. Ephesians 4:26‭-‬27 KJV There was a discussion in the congregation of saints recently about the possibility of God's demand in the above scripture. The pressing question is how can error, sin or hurts too deep; be forgiven before sunset?  How possible if the event occurred in the evening of the day?  Many more queries and questions some of which the logical answers tend to buttress the impossibility of God's demand. But one thing is certain, the word of the Lord remains the only truth and source of life for a child of God. Attempt to fault or inability to obey any of God's instruction is pure manifestation of the flesh. Thus there is just one simple question children of God should ask; what is the divine approach to forgiveness of deep hurt before sunset. Answer to this question will be based on the premise that we are Christian "Like Father like son" in other...
