FRIDAY, 6TH SEPTEMBER, 2013 QUENCH THE FIRE 1

QUENCHING THE FIRE!

MEMORIZE: And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. (James 3:6)

READ: James 3:1-6

Many people had lived on the planet and had gone to the great  beyond. Still, life continues. The status or position people find themselves is as a result of a very little object called TONGUE. However, this object is capable of lifting up and pulling down, building a virtue and destroying a virtue. TONGUE is the most powerful and delicate part of the body. Without TONGUE there will be no word and James 3:2 says if we offend not in word, we are perfect.

HOW DOES TONGUE WORK?

TONGUE is never independent. It is being ruled by the mind/heart. The work of the TONGUE has already been furnished in the mind/heart, then it will be sent to the TONGUE for implementation. BE CAUTIOUS OF WHAT GOES INTO YOUR MIND/HEART.

Romans 8:14 says those that are led by the spirit of God are sons of God.

If you are conversant and sensitive to the voice of the Holy Spirit, you would have heard Him warning you against or telling you about what the TONGUE is about to carry out.
Many people remain in poverty because of what the TONGUE had once implemented. Some, on the other hand have become very great via the implementation of the work of TONGUE.

HOW DO YOU QUENCH THE FIRE?

Joshua 1:8 tells us  to study the word of God everyday.
Galatians 5:16 says: This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. You need to always walk in the spirit of God. You need to cultivate in you the fruits of the Holy Spirit as listed in Galatians 5:22-23.
Proverbs 4:23 says: Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

PRAYER: Father (Jesus Christ), Please help me to Please you at all times;
Father, please bridle and guide my tongue with all diligence

SECURE YOUR SALVATION

Memory Verse: Holding forth the word of life;
that I may rejoice in the day of
Christ, that I have not run in
vain, neither laboured in vain.
Philippians 2:16

Read: Philippians 2:12-16

If you are born-again, go further
to receive the baptism of the
Holy Spirit and thereafter, walk
in the Spirit. Do everything
possible to retain the presence of
the Holy Spirit in your life.
Several years ago, I used to
preach to my mother to give her
life to Jesus, but she would tell
me she was among the early
Christians in her village and that
she had been a Christian before
she was married to my father.
Yet, I would ask her: “Are you
really born-again?” When she
could no longer stand the
pressure, she asked me what I
wanted her to do, so I led her to
Christ. After this, I was worried
about the genuineness of her
salvation, so I told God that I
needed to see the evidence of
her conversion especially
because she was advanced in
age; I wanted God to baptise her
with the Holy Spirit before she
dies, so that I can be certain she
is born-again.
During a visit one afternoon,
while praying for God's help so
that she would be baptised with
the Holy Spirit that same day, I
fell asleep. Two of my daughters
visited and met me sleeping, so
they went to ask mama whether
she had been baptised with the
Holy Spirit. They took some time
with her and mama received the
baptism of the Holy Spirit. It was
the noise that woke me. Have
you received the baptism of the
Holy Spirit? If you have, are
members of your nuclear and
extended families saved? If they
are, praise God, but don't stop at
that; help them to receive the
Holy Spirit. Luke 24:49 says,
“And, behold, I send the
promise of my Father upon
you: but tarry ye in the city of
Jerusalem, until ye be endued
with power from on high. ”
The presence of the Holy Spirit
will be a witness of conversion
to Christ as well as make them
witnesses of the power of the
Gospel according to Romans 8:9
and Acts 1:8 . Do not take for
granted that you are saved or
that your loved ones have given
his or her life to Christ, take
further steps to secure that
salvation by having more of the
Spirit of Jesus Christ.

ACTION POINT: If you have not experienced the
baptism of the Holy Ghost, pray
that the Lord will baptise you
with His fire. You can also see
your pastor to pray with you.

DIVINE WARNING TO EVERYONE INCLUDING ME

Behold, I and the children whom the Lord hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the Lord of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion. (Isaiah 8:18)

You claim the above scripture each time you remember it but you never work toward its manifestation.

You say "my children are from the Lord" yet you have been allowing your children to sing 'worldly songs'. Even you as a father or mother, you sing and encourage 'worldly song'. DON'T DECEIVE YOURSELF, sir/ma.

Train up your child in the way he/she should go so that when he/she grows old he/she will not depart from it. (Proverb 22:6)

TRAINING does not only include telling the children the DOs & Don'ts but include daily prayer over the children. Besides, you as a parent, are you not doing what you ask your children not to do?

EMPHASIS - SONGS

We must not let the songs we sing or encourage take us to HELL.

"I don't sing to the songs but I dance to the beat", this is also a way of encouraging worldly songs.

A chorister who has units, tens or hundreds of worldly songs on his/her phone, laptop, etc is encouraging worldly songs.

HOW DO WE KNOW WORLDLY SONGS?

You may want to ask, that how do we recognize worldly songs?
Any song that doesn't glorify God is worldly.

Any 'so called' gospel songs whose video shots don't glorify the image of GOD is worldly, let us BEWARE


This message is geared by the Spirit of the living God.

PRAYER:
Father, everything that will hinder me from entering Heaven, separate me from them all

PREPARE THE FUTURE!!!

PLEASE STUDY THIS PRAYER VERY CAREFULLY!

"You will never regret the day you were born in Jesus name"

How painful, unfortunate, terrible, agonizing, excruciating, torturous, galled, poignant it will be seeing other Christians( "Christ-Like") in that beautiful city called HEAVENS and we are left out.
It is of no doubt that if anyone eventually see himself in that painful, terrible, agonizing, excruciating, torturous, galled and poignant place, the person will say, "had I known, I would not have come to this world". This is the moment some will look back and utter such statement. It is most expedient of us all to work out our salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12) and make sure we study and meditate on God's word so as to show ourselves approved by God (2 Timothy 2:15).

NO DOUBT, persecution and trials will surface from the people of the world just because we are not of the world.
I wonder why we keep on pursuing the things of the world, laying more priority on the things of this world instead of the things of Heaven!
Our thought is filled up with earthly activities, it ought not to be. Earthly things are like magnet that draws things nearer and nearer.
What occupies our heart the most is capable of dictating our destination. If we don't want to regret the day we came to this world, we need to re-arrange our order of priority in percentage, giving a very high percentage to the things of the kingdom of God.

In addition, I keep on praying and telling people, that I MUST NOT MISS IT IN MARRIAGE, the reason is that marrying a wrong partner can possibly determine how my end will be.

As a youth/single/engaged, this is the best time to sow to your future. Spend time praying now so that you will not spend time praying to God to save your wife/husband when you suppose to be doing other things for God in future.

PRAYER:
Father, please don't let me look back to regret the day I was born in Jesus name. Save my soul. Have mercy on me. As I turn a new leaf, Father help me. Don't let me go back to EGYPT in Jesus name. AMEN

SIGN-IN TO FAITH!

There was a woman who had been looking unto God for the fruit of the WOMB for years.
One day, she came to the understanding of what FAITH can do, probably she heard a preaching in that respect. This woman arose and went to market to purchase new-born babies' wears. This woman, as she acted to what FAITH in JESUS CHRIST can do, neglected every harassment & discouragement from inward and outward and also backing up her FAITH with prayer & fasting. A few months later, she got pregnant and delivered to either a single baby or a twin, I can't say precisely because it happened years ago. The truth/fact is that SHE SIGNED-IN TO FAITH IN CHRIST and she got the result.


Before you start enjoying any the social networks, there is one important thing you must do and that is to SIGN-UP. Before signing up, you must have gathered a few information on that particular social network. Signing up requires some personal/confidential information about yourself. If you don't sign-up, you can't sign-in.

So also FAITH. Before you sign-in to FAITH, you must be able get a detailed information about FAITH (The author of FAITH, How it works, etc) before you sign-up to it.

SIGN-UP!
Before you sign-up to faith, you must understand who you really are and what you want to do with FAITH because, if you sign in without any understanding of your personal self, your FAITH can suddenly turn to FEAR.
To know who you are,

1. you must get absolutely familiar with the word of God
2. you must understand and must have put to practice some of the word of God that speaks about you
3. you must understand your stand in Christ.

All these facts you must know very well before signing-up to FAITH

FAITH is an instrument of turning impossibilities to possibilities.
FAITH is an instrument of saying "SHAME TO DEVIL!!!"
FAITH means BELIEVING & ACCEPTING the UNSEEN.

JOHN 1:12 tells us, that as many as believed HIM, to them HE gives POWER (power of faith, healing, salvation, deliverance, etc) to becomes sons & daughters of God.

HOLINESS is the ultimate entrance to becoming a son and daughter of God, why? This is because HE, Himself is holy. Without complete holiness, you can't see God, meaning that you can enter Heaven (Hebrews 12:14)

SECRET OF ANSWERED PRAYER

READ: Acts 16:22-36

Everybody prays. Either short or long prayer. Either sitting down, standing or while walking. The fact remains that everybody prays. The very key thing to quick answered prayer is understanding the concept of prayer.
As we know, that prayer is a communication between God and man.
It is a blank cheque when God says "Call unto me and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty thing which thou knowest not" (Jeremiah 33vs3).
Every believer counts on this promise without understanding how it works. The one who said when you call on Him, He would answer and show you great and mighty things you don't know also said in Proverb 15:8 that "The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord". Both the wicked and the righteous are God's creatures but their rights before God is absolutely different from each other.

God respects the prayer of His children. If you have some requests unanswered, it might be your name has been cancelled from HIS book, so look at your life and make amends.

QUALITIES OF SONS & DAUGHTERS OF GOD

1. HOLINESS: They live a blameless life. Though they are sinners but quickly repented from their sins. This also entails running away from every lust of the flesh (Galatians 5:17-21) and embracing the fruits of the spirit as we have in Galatians 5:22-23

2. GIVING CHEERFULLY & WHOLEHEARTEDLY: Make sure that when you give, you give willingly and cheerfully. Give to men and women of God. Give to the less privilege. It is not necessary someone asks before you give. Give for your own benefit. Give and not expect anything in return. Give because it is a commandment from God. Give because it is a way to Open Heavens.

3. LOVE: Love your enemies. Show love to everyone around you. LOVE is very deep. Ask Holy Spirit to reveal to you the concept of LOVE.

4. FAITH: But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. (Hebrews 11:6)
No matter how terrible a situation may be, never doubt the potency on God.

Act in FAITH, not in FEAR!
Jesus is the author of FAITH
Satan is the author of FEAR


Another secret of answered prayers is giving true praises and thanksgiving to God. If you praise God, He arises from His throne. True praises move God's throne, so when He arises, every problem is solved, closed doors are opened, barreness turns to fruitfulness, dry lands are filled with waters. Lack turns to abundance, all because HE arises from His throne. When lifts His legs, as we know that the earth is His footstool, all your adversaries are in soup. As you praise God, God will arise for you and you will hold your peace


ACTION POINT:
Always praise God with the understanding of every lyrics and praise Him wholeheartedly
