There is a church beside my house, it's a small church of not more than 20 people. At least from their voices I could assume this number.

Since I moved into this estate I have enjoyed every of their services. Their pastor is so vast and very deep in the word. I have made it a
point of call to attend their Sunday school from my house and I have never missed transferring my offering before leaving for my church. Infact I have switched to permanent second service just to enjoy the Sunday school of this other church with whom I share fence. I can't
recognise any of their faces except for their pastor's, thanks to the banner in front of the church.

Yesterday midnight, I was awake tidying up a client's job when I heard the pastor praying. He lives in the same premises with his church. This minute he is praying loudly, the
next minute he is quiet.

In his groaning, I heard him say "God, you promised to make this ministry big, you told me it's you that sent me. It's been years and I'm tired......He sobed"

Gosh, my heart nearly jumped out of me. I felt his pain. He must have thought about how the
ministry isn't attracting the right people, how his vastness and teaching prowess isn't bringing the expected result. He was tired!

I muttered few words of prayers and I was led to drop an unusual offering.

So, I picked my phone and sent him a certain offering that I have never
done before. The narration was "From a hidden disciple thankyou" .

This morning, I decided to attend his service throughout, still from my house. During Sunday school, he kept saying he's got a huge testimony to share during main service. I could sense so much excitement in his
voice.

During the main service, he said "I don't know how God did it but he has done.it. We now have enough money to commence the radio program that we've always wanted to do. I didn't know some pepple are being blessed by the word of God from my mouth. I didn't
know I have hidden disciples. I got a miraculous offering of #xyz this midnight from a hidden disciple and we shall spend everything on our radio outreach"

The whole church screamed and I could hear them rolling on the floor. I was both laughing and crying at the same time.
I felt so happy to have met a major need and rekindled hope in him.

It was time to pray for the donor and I felt an unusual presence of God in my room. These humans prayed from their hearts and I wept like a baby while on my kneels.

Dear leader, coach, pastor, teacher, though
its looking like your impact is not felt, your audience size is small or your input doesn't equate your result. Kindly hang on, your breakthrough is here. Someone somewhere is watching and just one day will be your day!

This experience also taught me not to be weary in my
assignment and to never underestimate the power of prayers.

Your big break is close! Hang on!

KEEPING GODLY ASSOCIATION

Man is a product of influence and thus it suffices that a man will reflect the kind of relationships he keeps. You don’t underestimate the power of relationships.
Hence, Solomon taught in the book of Proverbs
Proverbs 13:20 He that walketh with
wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.
The word “companion”, implies an association, or to associate with (as a friend), to keep company with, to make friendship with.
Thus, it is important to pay attention to what the Scriptures teach about
friendships and relationships, and heed to all the warnings and instructions concerning the kind of company we keep. Whatever you see, listen to and hear so often is what becomes part of you. So, we must be cautious as touching who we allow access into our lives. The scriptures

EXPLAINING THE BOOK OF DEUTERONOMY.

In continuing the studies of the books of the scriptures, precisely the Old Testament books, Pastor advanced from a previous study on the book of Numbers to Deuteronomy.

· What’s the New Testament approach to this book?
· Is it a study for the believer today?

In answering these and other questions, Pastor gives a detailed study into how the Old Testament writings were referred to in the Four Gospels and the Epistles.

As earlier studies have done, this will also enable many study the
Old Testament books with more precision and accuracy.

HOW NATHANIEL BASSEY TURNED DOWN MY OFFER
*I was tempting him to study him*
- APOSTLE JOHNSON SULEMAN

One time, I met a popular gospel artist - Nathaniel Bassey on the plane. We got talking and he said he'd love to come to our church to minister. I told him about our program,
Holy Ghost Convention, in June. He said no, that his father in the Lord, Pst. E.A. Adeboye will be having a program and that he'll be following him for one month. I asked him if he was a guest artiste at the program, he said no, that he's just following him, in case he wants
him to sing. I asked him, 'Do you know what I'll give you?' I was tempting him to study him. He told me, 'Sir, it's not important. My covering is more than envelop.'

Why will one song not penetrate nations? Because it has the endorsement,

Can we just Read ?

One major fault line of preys of false teaching and teachers is either the laxity or outright indolence in reading scriptures and scriptural materials .

There is a pervading lack of reading culture in many churches.
Have you tried looking up whilst preaching
and reading a scripture to see the number of parishioners looking at you or staring into space rather than reading the text to see if it's true !

The folks in berea had far better attitudes Acts 17:11 KJV
[11] These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they
received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

Have you tried posting a well written article on Facebook ,line upon line and some misguided-error missile pounces on a line in the entire article and starts

Jesus' ministry comprised of teenagers majorly and the eldest was peter whom is believed to have been In his early 20s
No dance shows
No concerts to catch fun
Singles seminar
Beach parties
He placed them over much older men and women and committed Gods eternal plan to them
They faced the government of their day and religious bodies fearlessly

He had trained them well

Many unmarried ,yet didn’t do career seminars for them etc

He never had a special “teenage church “

Both young and old sat and listened to the same sermons !

The ONLY ministry
bequeathed by Jesus is not a special teenage or youth ministry
It’s an APOSTOLIC one
Yes ,Times seem to Change but not his word and mandate
If you claim to have a youth ministry,never forget that’s ALL Jesus had in the four gospels and

WALKING IN FORGIVENESS

Ephesians 4:32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
Paul taught and instructed us (believers) to follow God’s example, and forgive one another.
It is pertinent to
understand that forgiveness is a foundation and strength of every relationship. Two people who know how to forgive will keep their relationship for long. We would build very strong relationships if we learn to forgive one another. Relationships are built on the abilities of the
parties to forgive.
Evidently, the reason why our salvation is eternal is because, God forgives forever.
Hebrews 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
Hebrews 10:17 And their sins and iniquities will I
