"Despite your opposition, you must refuse to give up on your dream or aspiration. For that nonsense to stop in your life, it takes effort, hard work, determination and your tenacity. Yet if that miracle must be performed, it starts with the Word of God. You must be instructed in what the Word can do before there would be a demonstration of power! The Psalmist says: ‘He sent his Word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.’

“Again, be quick to reconcile with people. You don’t know who God will use to take away that nonsense from you. Many people are carrying messes because there’s nobody to help or carry them up! They keep malice with others when there is no reason to. Yet that nonsense will continue if there are people you cannot pray for.

“ Never forget: There is always something left for you to begin with!  Moses said: ‘For forty years, I was messed up; I was a stranger in a strange land, afflicted, a shepherd, not a prince: my life used to make sense, but not anymore! God said to him: ‘What do you have in your hand?’ There’s no battle, trial or challenge, no matter how rough or tough, you go through that would leave you empty. So if you feel drained, defrauded and disadvantaged because of the battle you went through, never forget there’s always something vital left for you to start with! Don’t compare yourself with anybody. With that positive mind-set, whatever is left in your hand is enough to drive that nonsense from your life!

“ Last but not least: when the cart shakes, don’t hold it!  Uzzah in 2 Samuel 6 took hold of the ark of God to balance it when the cart shook, and he was killed for his error by God. Each time you help God, ‘Ishmael’ will be the product: when you get an answer, it will be counterfeit.”

 The words we just read above are excerpts from Bishop Chris Kwakpovwe’s preaching as he ministered through Live Streaming via www.odmlive.tk to Zambian Mountain on 26/9/15.  Commending the determination, the passion, zeal and focus of the Zambian committee that organized the programme, he said he would be sharing his message from his book, “This Nonsense Must Stop.”  With clarity and simplicity, the publisher of Our Daily Manna launched into a thunderous, powerful, barrier-breaking message, driving home the importance of God’s special plan for the Zambian Mountain. He explained to the crowd of over 5,000 people that though he could not in person be there in Lusaka for reason beyond his control, his heart remained with them. Praying fervently with the prophetic  “2 (two) padlocks” the enthusiasm of the crowd was infectious, loud and clear. For over four hours, Bishop Chris tirelessly led the people through many intensive and forceful prayer-points, as he prophesied and gave words of knowledge: “I see someone with partial paralysis that is receiving her healing now: that which you could not do before, start doing it now! I see a woman’s fibroid turning to fine boy right now! I rebuke that disease: that affliction cannot stand! ...Whatever is not making sense in your marital story, today it shall make sense!  Any man or woman carrying chain on their hand so that their labour cannot produce results , from today, I command that chain to be destroyed. Any feet that I anoint today, as the oil comes upon you, you shall begin to overtake! With this overtaking anointing, what takes others one year to achieve, from this day, it shall take you one week...Your pain shall turn to gain!”

Watching him preach and minister with unflagging energy and uncommon passion, an observer could be forgiven for wondering what was responsible for the euphoric reception that usually attended Bishop Chris’ ministry internationally, from Lusaka to London to Lagos or Dallas. Indeed if the story of Manna Prayer Mountain World-wide is told today, what objectively could be said to be responsible for the massive and steady growth of the ministry? Is it the unquenchable zeal and enthusiasm with which the volunteer workers bring to their duty posts? Could it be traced to the uncommon devotion and sacrifice of the music/choir department that can be discerned through the careful selection of the rousing songs and hymns used on worship days?  Can credit be given to how the Assistant General Overseer, Dr. (Mrs) Ejiro Kwakpovwe used the profound combination of her intellectual capacity, compassion and practical wisdom to encourage and motivate the women leadership – by hosting regular conferences and seminars – to  achieve their potentials?  Perhaps, one can look into the area of how the widows are not neglected in the ministry as the Benevolent department takes time out periodically to give financial gifts and other material items to ameliorate their physical needs.  Is it the miracles of healing, financial breakthroughs or marital connections that occur regularly? You can even ask further: are there any secrets at all?

Still, what can never be disputed is that with his precise, eagle-eyed attention for details, working under Bishop Chris Kwakpovwe’s leadership, it is hard for anyone to celebrate a shoddy, mediocre output. Charging those who work closely with him to develop what he calls “ extra-mile thinking” if they must be result-oriented and productive, he says without hesitation: “Result is my breakfast, lunch and dinner! Give me results, and I’d go the extra-mile for you.”  It’s no surprise therefore that from pastors to deacons and to other workers, everyone is searching for ways to implement ideas that would engineer growth and expand the work of the ministry. An example which has gained ground and garnered support is the vision of “One Nigeria, One ODM” that takes place 1^st October every year where youths and others go on rally/road walk through the city of Lagos to give out copies of ODM free to every soul they encounter on that day.

One hard-nosed observer, upon further interrogation, noted with a finality that is almost unquestionable: “ Look, if you pay attention long enough, the growth secrets of Manna Prayer Mountain can be found in the hot-buttons message that Bishop Chris preaches with unrelenting drive. His tenacity, addiction to hard work, his attention to details, are all reflected in his ministry’s growth.”

UNLOCK FOUR MIND-BLOWING WAYS TO CHEAT & CONQUER DEATH. By FELIX N.JARIKRE

A

re we, as human beings, really powerless and helpless before the grim reaper called premature death?  Can death be checkmated, frustrated and defeated? Can humanity ever develop the capacity to welcome death as a friend, or repel it as an unwanted enemy? The searing, lacerating and despairing pain that comes with the death of a loved one, can it ever be mitigated? Is there a balm, drug or medicine to kill the dreadful pain?

Is death as capricious, wanton and callous as it is painted to be, not minding the grief and pain it inflicts on its victims? Is death a tool for good or evil, a transition or a hopeless dead-end?  If scientists could reverse the aging process in man, would death be kept at bay?  Can death happen to anybody by accident, unprepared?  These are questions, of course, for which I don’t think one blog post can presume to answer.

Death is akin to a state of paralysis, lack of motion or progress, when a thing is comatose, inert, demobilized and de-motivated, lifeless, irrelevant, out of contention; neither a spectator nor participant; the anti-hero without accolade or applause; N.F.A. ( No Future Ambition) ;  a silent mockery of all that is beautiful and glorious. Death. Is. Ugly. Treacherous. Unwanted.

Since the element of death was introduced in the Garden of Eden as an Early Warning System to keep the man on track, its implication stalks his mind, even if he pretends otherwise.

John Donne  (1572-1631) defiantly wrote:

Death, be not proud, though some have called thee

Almighty and dreadful, for thou are not so;

For those whom thou think’st thou dost overthrow

Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me.

In the Bible, Abraham was told by God that he would be ‘buried in a good old age’ showing that how or when he would die was not a frivolity that the Almighty could not be bothered with. Isaac and Jacob gave up the ghost when they were very old, adequately prepared against the time of their demise. Death certainly did not pounce on them by stealth or surprise! Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died without any weakness or affliction associated with old age; he was also warned and prepared ahead of time against his eventual passing.

When God warned King Hezekiah through Prophet Isaiah to put his house in order because the time of his departure was at hand, Hezekiah certainly did not accept this news with equanimity. His unequivocal rejection of the premature death parcelled with his name-tag was evidenced by his incisive, robust prayer to God asking for an extension of time concerning his further stay on earth. In his prayer, Hezekiah had famously proclaimed  before God: For the grave cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee, they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth. (see book of Isaiah chapter 38) He was not only heard, fifteen more years were added to his days!

Even Jesus Christ, who died at the age of 33 years, said he ‘ willingly laid down his life.’ His death did not come by accident, but it was purposeful and deliberate. Even though Paul was imprisoned, his death when it came was pre-meditated rather than by accident. Paul gave permission to his death! Writing to Timothy, he said: For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. Having kept the faith, and finished his course, Paul said he was now ready to die!

Here are four ways to cheat, restrain and conquer premature death!

(1)     Secure Identity as a Vessel of Mercy: Don’t be ignorant or equivocal about your identity as a vessel of mercy. There are many people today on earth known as vessels of wrath because they reject the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Floating on error, and powerless to do anything about it, it is fine for them to surrender and adjust to the ‘inevitable capriciousness’ of death. You go to the same schools, eat in the same restaurants, drive similar cars or live in similar houses, but DESTINIES ARE NOT THE SAME! While there are many schools of thoughts or philosophies, in various guises, that want you to adjust mentally to the capriciousness of death, stealthy and treacherous, beyond your power to control or restrain, let it be settled in your mind, as a vessel of mercy, that death has no power over you. Like John Donne, you can also say: Death, be not proud, for you cannot kill me! A vessel of mercy has no fellowship with premature death! You certainly can control and restrain death. Yes, you can defang death, and uproot its stealth!

(2)    Block Fear of Death: The Bible tells us that by destroying Satan, who had the power of death, Jesus Christ delivered once for all the vessels of mercy who were subject all their lifetime to bondage through fear of death. You must not hesitate to block fear of death from your mind. Resist every threat of death howling in your ears! Because Jesus tasted death for every man, you are released to experience abundance of health and wealth! Be resolute about the fulfilment of your destiny!  Your destiny has escaped paralysis and retrogression! Your productivity shall remain relevant, having escaped decay and shame! By the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things, you have been mobilized with the ‘treasures of darkness and secret riches of hidden places’ to upgrade your business in every way. Never allow yourself to tolerate the thought that someone somewhere can stop your progress! Make plan, make progress! Unleash your power to make things happen without apology or equivocation. Truly, your destiny has been rescued from the claws of death! Whatever disease or affliction you suffer from now shall not terminate in death, but healing!

(3)    Don’t Advertise Your Pain: The challenges you are going through right now are meant to bring you to that place where you can trust God without shame, instead of feeling frustrated and helpless. To feel frustrated and helpless when you are challenged by anything or situation is the kiss of death. As they journeyed through the wilderness, the children of Israel were discouraged because of the way which appeared to be harsh, tough and difficult. As they began to complain and murmur with a familiar refrain: ‘Are there no graveyards in Egypt that we should be brought to this place to die where there is no water to drink or fish to eat?’ God sent serpents to bite them, and many died. To advertise your pain by complaining when you face a monumental challenge or difficulty is to invite the sting of premature death against your life! The emotional make-up of vessels of mercy is the anti-thesis of sorrow and grief. That’s why you must rehearse your praise by singing a new song or forcing yourself to laugh when you come against a tough situation instead of advertising your pain!

(4)    Pray Without Ceasing: When a person has been earmarked or programmed to die, intensive prayer definitely can reverse that evil programme for the person in question to escape. In the Bible, two apostles, zealous for the gospel, came under the wrath of Herod. One, James, was captured and executed. The other, Peter, escaped from prison where he was held. What accounted for the difference? Realizing their complacency over the untimely death of James, the Christians in Jerusalem were jolted to pray without ceasing when news of Peter’s arrest came. As they were praying without relenting, Peter was actually asleep when the angel came to rescue him from prison!  

MESSIANIC ANOINTING,A POVERTY-DESTROYER. By Pastor Timothy Olapade of Manna Prayer Mountain,Lagos,Nigeria.

The messianic anointing is a poverty-destroyer. Your enemies might tolerate you and pray that you learn to adjust to poverty, but God is actually grieved by that poverty you are fooling around with. When you prosper, God is happy! You have been given power to get wealth! That business that you run with struggle, it means you have not unleashed your power. What you need is the grace of God, not your experience with destitution or your multiple certificates! Some people are using their brain too much, using too much calculation! But we must not forget what our Father in the Lord, Bishop Chris Kwakpovwe taught us about the ‘Big Brain Theory’ concerning how we can connect to the transcendent power of God to overcome our challenges or difficulties!

Those who come with a get-rich-quick mentality are usually lazy and easily frustrated. Just be consistent in doing what you love to do, fulfilling what your heart is committed to. How can I do this thing better? To do the same thing all the time, and expect a different result is a prescription for insanity! Pray: O God of suddenly, my business is available, show up for me. Now! Reveal to me the secrets of my prosperity!

WEALTH TRANSFER UNLOCKED BY THE POWER KEY OF AGGRESSIVE REJOICING.By FELIX N.JARIKRE

<a href="http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/14415719/?claim=jsjjvt2x3cz">Follow my blog with Bloglovin</a>

Let’s rehearse again the direct consequence of Adam’s fall in the Garden of Eden: Adam was left with a destitute mentality because he inadvertently rejected the intangible, unlimited wealth and riches that were meant for him when he violated the tree of knowledge. The serpent, prince of darkness, on the other hand, was blind and clueless of the unlimited wealth meant for his rival, Adam, though he controlled the limited wealth and riches of the physical realm. While Adam struggled and slaved with a destitute mentality, the prince of darkness flourished and shone because of the physical wealth that he controlled.

Yet God was determined to rehabilitate Adam, and reverse the ugly trend whereby he was the slave of Mammon, the prince of darkness. It’s in this context that we begin to see two distinct personalities in mutual antagonism emerge on the historical stage: Adam represented by Abraham was the vessel of mercy while the prince of darkness represented by the arrogant, oppressive and coercive Pharaoh was tagged the vessel of wrath.

Knowing that Adam could only be rehabilitated through the principle of wealth transfer, the stage was set whereby the rich treasury of ancient Egypt was plundered, not as an option but by divine ordination, and the economic power-house of the time was reduced to destitution and penury as her wealth was transferred to Israel under the leadership of Moses.

You will notice that as they journeyed to the land of milk and honey where seven ‘greater and mightier’ nations would be driven out and destroyed for Israel’s occupation – whenever they were challenged by adversity of any kind, and they instinctively reacted by complaining or murmuring, they were not only rebuked, but something tragic like premature death by serpent’s bite would take its toll on them. That’s to say that as vessels of mercy, whatever they went through no matter how tough and challenging it was, sorrow and grieving or depression were not designed to be part of their emotional make-up. Isaiah picturing this says: Surely he hath borne our grief and hath carried our sorrows. James says: Count it all joy when fall into diverse temptations. Peter puts it this way: Wherein ye greatly rejoice ,though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: that the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perishes, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.

If your emotional make-up as a vessel of mercy is designed to reject, contradict and supplant sorrow, depression or despair, then it becomes a treasonable offence for you to lament and complain when challenged. To murmur with a fainting heart is to be viewed as a pretender, and not a contender, un-persuaded and ashamed to stand for his/her faith. Your failure to rejoice aggressively in adversity  marks you out as a traitor and not a patriot. When you wail under an adversarial circumstance, you come off either as a spy or someone who suffers from crisis of identity. The penalty of  being viewed as delusional or a spy is akin to being ostracized, treated with scorn instead of pity.

Peter says to rejoice with aggression when you come to a hard place of conflicts in life or work-place is not an option, but a compulsory counter-insurgency with the end-products of praise and honour and glory as the resolution. Why does he say that the trial of your faith is much more precious than perishable gold? The unspoken part of the deal is that without your faith being tried, the PURE GOLD – imperishable, and capable  of satisfying your soul – cannot manifest!  TO BE CONTINUED.
