EUROPE ARISE 2019 CONFERENCE WITH PASTOR E.A ADEBOYE At JAARBEURS-UTRECT, NETHERLANDS

DAY 1 – TOPIC: ARISE (FOR A PURPOSE)

DATE: 17TH APRIL, 2019

TEXT: ISAIAH 60:1-3

SONG:

Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy,

Holy is the Lord;

Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy,

Holy is the Lord.

OPENING PRAYER:

King of kings and Lord of lords; the Almighty God we worship You, we give You all Glory and Honour for what You are doing in Europe today. We thank You because You are doing something in the Spiritual that will soon manifest in the Physical. Please accept our worship in Jesus’ Name.

Thank You for Your children who are graduating. We commit them into Your hands. Father, we pray that they will not leave here with ordinary Certificate. They will leave with Your Anointing; they will leave with Your Presence; they will leave with Your Backing. That You will use them Mightily for Your Glory.

And we pray Lord God Almighty once again for those people You have Ordained; we pray Lord God Almighty that the Anointing that has come upon them today will never run dry. And that they too will serve You like never before.

And everyone here (or reading) Lord God Almighty, I pray that because of the Unction of the Anointing, every yokes in their lives will be destroyed. Thank You in advanced for what You will do this week in Europe;

In Jesus Mighty Name we have prayed – Amen!

Let somebody shout hallelujah – Hallelujah.

Shake hand with one (1) or two (2) people, say Good evening, God bless you.

And then let’s give a round of applause to God for the Choir (they sang very well); Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!

I want to congratulate all those who Graduated today; you don’t know how BLESSED you are. You are very, very BLESSED! In my own case, when God grabbed me: I had no time to go to Bible College. In my time, there was no School of Disciples. School of Disciples started in 1985, after I had become General Overseer. So you are blessed! You have got a Special Extra Blessing from God.

As for those who have been Ordained today, congratulations! When I was ordained in 1975; I was so jealous of the Oil that for three (3) days I didn’t take my bath.

Don’t follow my examples!

As at that time, I didn’t know that there is no soap that can wash away the Anointing. So take your bath, don’t say because … (laughter).

… Glory be to God! God will be with you, and He will use you for His Glory – Amen!

I want to thank ALL my Brothers and Sisters from other Ministries who are cooperating with us for this Special Program – the Lord will prosper your Ministries, and His Anointing upon you will increase Mightily. And together by the Special Grace of God, Europe shall be saved by our hands – Amen!

… Now let’s go ahead and give the Lord a big round of applause.

The AGO has already done a great job; he has preached half of my sermon – which is very good. So that the remaining half will be brief and you will be able to go home soon.

BIBLE TEXT: ISAIAH 60:1-3;

1. Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the Glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. 

2. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and His Glory shall be seen upon thee. 

3. And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.

… If that is for you, say Amen – AMEN!

Everything God does is for a Purpose.

God never does anything without a purpose.

NEVER! He never allows a Convention to take place without a PURPOSE.

Revelation 4:11 makes it clear: He made ALL things for His pleasure.

The Bible said He even made the wicked for the day of evil.

The Bible tells us that He raised up Pharaoh so that when He drown him, the world will know that there is a King of kings.

… Everything He does is for a PURPOSE!

So your being Ordained today, and your Graduating today is for a PURPOSE!

We are saved by Grace – for a Purpose.

Ephesians 2:8-10 says: We are saved by Grace, not by works so that nobody can boast. But then He tells us immediately, after that; that we might do GOOD WORKS, that He had foreordained us to do.

He saved us by Grace, so that we can do Good Works.

… There is a Purpose for your salvation:

1. We are HEALED for a Purpose.

What is that PURPOSE?

To become a TESTIMONY.

Mark 1:40-45; He healed a leper and told the leper: Tell no one!

The leper laughed: How can I keep quiet? I was considered incurable, I wasn’t even sure You will be willing to make me clean (even though I know You have the ability). And then You went ahead, You made me clean. You even broke protocol by touching me. And now You want me to keep quiet? He said: I will tell the world!

… We are HEALED to be a TESTIMONY!

2. We are DELIVERED to WITNESS.

In Mark 5:2-20 the Bible tells us of a mad man in Gadara, who was so mad that he himself has written himself off. He was living in the graveyard. And then he came across the Lord Jesus Christ, and He set him free. (We would probably be hearing more about that one, if God wished).

And after Jesus set him free; he came to Him and said: I will go with You now wherever you go.

Jesus said: NO! I have a PURPOSE for setting you free. Go back and tell your people, tell them what God has done for you.

… We are DELIVERED to be a WITNESS!

3. We are BLESSED to be a BLESSING.

Genesis 12:1-3; the Bible made it clear that when God was speaking to Abraham, He said: I will bless you, I will make you Great, I will make your name great, and shall be a blessing.

Oh! I will bless those who bless you; I will curse those who curse you, and through your seed shall all the Nations of the world be blessed.

… We are BLESSED to be a BLESSING!

4. We are PROSPERED to LEND.

Deuteronomy 28:11-12; it says the Lord is going to bless you: Will bless your store, will bless your basket, and you shall lend to Nations.

So if you Prosper, it is for the Purpose of lending to Nations.

Just like the AGO said, when God prospered Europe: it started lending to Nations. And as long as they were doing that, as long as they were sending Missionaries, they kept on prospering; prospering materially, prospering physically, prospering spiritually.

But then a time came when they stopped lending to Nations: Missionaries stopped coming, and when the Purpose is no longer been fulfilled: the Prosperity started collapsing.

So if you have been saved and you are not doing the Good Works that He expects you to do; you shouldn’t be surprised if you backslide.

Because when you are saved, you become a branch of Jesus Christ – The Vine.

And He said in John 15:1-5; the branch that is bearing fruits will be a TESTIMONY.

And like I told some of us in the past; the moment God heals you and you testify, if Satan comes to try to steal your healing; all you need to do is say: I have already TESTIFIED.

And the Lord will rise up to make sure that your Healing is permanent.

If you have been set free from forces of darkness and you do not Witness; you run the risk of going back into bondage.

If you are blessed, and you are not a blessing; the blessing can even become a problem.

And many of you will remember in those days, when you had maybe three (3) to four (4) pairs of shoes. Going to Church was easy, because if you wore a black shoe this Sunday, next Sunday you will probably wear brown.

But as the shoes began to multiply, and your house become as a Supermarket; getting ready for Church became difficult.

5. You are CALL to SERVE.

So don’t just bear the title “Minister”. It’s not the Title that will do the Work. You may be an Apostle and not be able to heal ordinary headache. You could be just a Deacon and raise the dead. It’s not the Title, it’s the Anointing.

It’s how you use the Anointing that will determine how the Anointing will grow.

In 1 Kings 1:19-21; when He called Elisha, the Bible says: immediately, Elisha followed Elijah and began to MINISTER unto God.

CALL to SERVE! The word “Minister” is a Latin word, meaning “Servant”.

So we hear that you, as a Minister of the Gospel, you are supposed to be a SERVANT to the people.

It is the world that stole the word MINISTER and turn it to something BIG!

So when we hear that somebody is Minister of State, when he is coming, people begin to tremble.

… You are CALLED to SERVE!

6. And then finally, you are ANOINTED to PREACH; Anointed to heal, Anointed to set captives free, Anointed to transform lives, Anointed to Shine!

Isaiah 61:1-3; The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach, to heal, to set the captives free, to transform lives.

… That is the PURPOSE of the ANOINTING!

I have heard people saying, somebody has special Anointing for frying chicken (That’s for KFC).

You are Anointed to preach, anointed to lay hand on the sick so that they can recover; anointed to tell demons to get out of the way (and he will go).

That’s why you heard in my prayer: What you ask to come will come; what you ask to go will go.

… That’s the PURPOSE of the ANOINTING!

When He says Arise, Shine; your light is come: the Purpose of you getting light is so that you will Shine!

And what is the PURPOSE of your SHINNING?

It is so that kings can come into the brightness of your rising.

The reason God is calling this Convention; the reason God has started it off with Graduation and Ordination: is that you will know, you have an ASSIGNMENT.

And if only you will show your light; it will not be long before Europe shall be saved.

In CONCLUSION: Supposed you are here this evening; you are not here to Graduate, you are not here to be Ordained, you are not already ordained in another Ministry. But you came because you were invited – invited by your friend who is graduating; invited by your friend who is been Ordained.

What is the PURPOSE of an Invitation (because everything has a purpose)?

Oh, in Matthew 11:28-30, Jesus Christ says;  Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

You got the invitation to come tonight so that you can come to Jesus and He can give you rest.

ALTAR CALL:

So if you are here, and  you have not surrendered your life to Jesus Christ; He brought you here for a purpose – so that He can reach out to you and save your soul.

Everything will become new, because He says: Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

So if there is anyone here at all, and you have not surrendered your life to Jesus Christ; am going to give you an opportunity to do so now. I will count from one (1) to four (4), before I say four (4), if you want to surrender your life to Jesus Christ, please come and stand before me.  I will cry to the Almighty God for you. That He will save your soul, forgive your sins and give you a brand new beginning.

So if there is anyone here at all, and you have not yet given your life to Jesus; but you want to do so now, please come as I begin to count. If by the time I say four (4) there is no one here, I will assume we are all saved.

Am counting now …

God bless you, you are welcome. Keep coming, don’t wait for anyone, you might be the only one remaining now. God bless you!

Now those of you who have come forward, please talk to the Almighty: say please just save my soul. I have come to surrender my life to You. And I will serve You from now on – I will do Your will; be my Saviour and my Father.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have prayed – Amen.

PRAYER FOR SALVATION:

My Father and my God, I want to bless your Holy Name. I want to say thank You for Your Words. Thank You for all these your children who have come to surrender their lives to You. Thank You for remembering Your Promises that “whosoever will come unto You, You will in no wise cast out.” They have come to you now Father, please remember them in Jesus’ Name.

Have Mercy on them, let your Blood wash away their sins. Save their Souls today and write their names in the Book of Life. From now on, anytime they cry unto You, please answer them by Fire.

In Jesus Mighty name we have prayed – Amen!

Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.

And now, before you go (you are the First Fruit of this Convention); so I must shake your hands. Congratulations!

And Counsellors, please get their details so that I can continue to pray for them. Please follow that man!

… Let’s give the Lord a very be round of applause.

Now, am going to ask you to pray a very Special Prayer. And the Prayer is that: God will help you FULFILL your PURPOSE in life.

So would you please stand. And if you believe God is going to answer you, would you lift your voice and shout a Big Hallelujah – HALLELUJAH!

I want you to please pray this Prayer with all your heart: it is very, very crucial – what is the PURPOSE why you came into this world. And that you want that PURPOSE to be FULFILLED.

So lift your voices to the Almighty God and say Father; the PURPOSE for which you sent sent me to this world; let that PURPOSE be FULFILLED.

… Go ahead, lift your voices to the Almighty God and PRAY!!!!

Thank you so much for staying all through to read.

It is outrightly wrong and a sin for anyone that wants to swim in God’s Glory to consciously remove the original source of the work that does not emanate for him or her!
