THE UNSTOPPABLE CHURCH
We are currently on the threshold of the biggest revival in the history of mankind.
The world however requires fire to jolt it out of complacency in order to appreciate God’s move and intentions to the world.
Without Signs and Wonders however, many people will not believe.
The Church is built on the Faith in Jesus Christ which is backed up with Power.
Without this Power, Christianity will not be different from the other religions.
When God started His dealings with the Israelites, Fire played a keyed role. Over times however; this Fire ingredients was dropped, Power eluded them and their relationship with God became a mere religion containing only traditions, rules and laws.
The coming of Jesus Christ however restored the Fire back into the Church.
Shortly before His ascension to Heaven, Jesus Christ promised His disciples the Baptism of the Fire which took place on the day of Pentecost.
At the Upper Room, literal Fire descended on the heads of one hundred and twenty (120) believers.
This waxed hotter as the Church grew with progressive revival. They care less about human approval and applause.
Within a short space of time after the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Gospel about Him had spread out to Rome, Alexandria, Antioch and all the great cities of Europe, Africa and Asia.
The Gospel had made great in-roads into the aristocracy and among the intellectuals – changing the lifestyle of countless number of ordinary men and women. This was achieved through Evangelism among the Disciples and Apostles.
Many years later however, the Fire continued to diminishes.
By how much you may want to ask as we approach the last days?
Therefore there is need for the outpouring of God’s spirit on His Church to sustain the Fire before it goes into extinction.
God has an expectation for His Church. It is His desire that the Church be identified by her Fire-Powers. He wants His Church to be filled with “Divine Fire” so that satanic agents will not be able to operate within and around the Assembly of the “Called-Out”.
There must be Fire on the “Prayer Altar” at all times.
A “Perfect Christian” is a Christian that is without blemish – a Christ-Like individual indeed!
Today however, what you will observe with utter dismay is how people counterfeited True Worship of God in the name of religion. People now worship in the flesh and not spirit.
The problem with many so-called 21st century Christian worshippers is that they no longer admit sin as sin. They trivialise sin and regarded it as “unavoidable mistakes” – so they never confess same or strive to overcome it.
This therefore explains the carnal worship and rascality in the name of Pentecostalism as we observe in most of our Churches today.
What we have now is a situation whereby witches and wizards now sit comfortably in our Churches because of Lukewarmness of the Believers and lack of fire in the midst of the Congregation.
To sustain your Christian life therefore and be part of “The Unstoppable Church”; you must watch over overcoming sin and the wind of false doctrines across the face of the world in these End-Time.
A lot of doctrines contrary to the Doctrine of Christ are polluting the minds of members of the Church which ought to be flushed out.
Many so called Christians nowadays are not well grounded in the Word of God. If you have a half-baked knowledge of God’s Word, you are giving room for the enemy to fill you up with false doctrines.
The bible says you should avoid peddlers of false doctrines – you should not greet them, receive them to your house and infact take to your heels when you noticed any of them around you (Romans 16:17; 2Thessalonians 3:6 & 14).
Any attempt to restore such fellow, you need to be put on your Spiritual Guards and be extra careful not to be swept off your feet by his/her false doctrines.
Another area to avoid is “Imperfect Service to God”. Many people work not caring if their work is acceptable to God or not.
You may be shocked on Judgement Day that God will deny knowing many supposedly workers of God.
Of all the vessels in God’s House, “Golden Vessels” stands out.
Paul was such a vessel and therefore God performed special miracles through him (Acts 19: 11-12).
You may start out as vessel unto honour but sadly end up as vessel of dishonour. Gehazi is an example of this – he started well as a servant of Elisha and threw away the golden chance of being the greatest Prophet of his time by not ending well to receive the double portion of the Annointing in the life of Elisha.
God is interested in the Growth of His Church.
Growth comes to those who are filled with the love of God.
The Church is a living organism and not a place, building or organisation and God has a special plan for her Growth.
God is not interested in you fishing without a catch (Luke 5: 4-11); having a lost sheep that is not restored (Mathew 18: 11-14); a lost coin not sought for (Luke 15: 8-10) and a ripe harvest that are not reaped (Mathew 9: 36-38).
What truly mattered to God is a sweet Fellowship with Him.
He can do everything with Nothing – He can put His Word in your mouth (Exodus 4: 10-12); commissioned even inexperienced men (Jeremiah 1: 4-10) and overlook lack of equipment and resources as reasons why some Churches are not Growing.
“The Unstoppable Church” therefore should resemble the “New Testament Church”.
- They should be one whose membership and work are opened “ONLY” to those who are saved.
- They should be the Church that continues daily steadfastly in Fellowship with one another both within the Church building and outside the Church – breaking of bread together in their various houses like the Early Church; giving themselves wholeheartedly to the earnest Study of the Word of God and Fervent Prayers.
- Each of the Believers among them should Grow and become Strong in the Lord.
- Such a Church must be a Studying, Sharing and Praying Church with the manifestations of Signs and Wonders being a common-place among them like the Early Church (Acts 2: 42-47).
- Holiness is a Great virtue that must be evident in a Church that is Unstoppable. You must first and foremost be Holy Spirit filled – this is indispensable in the life of any Christian.
… Without the Holy Spirit, you cannot have any meaningful dimensions of fruits of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5: 22-23) that will make you a “Perfect Christian” in the world today.
- We need to be clear about our Identity – though we are in the world but we are not of the world.
Therefore, we ought not to be bugged down by the affairs of this world but that of heaven. Our affections ought to be on the things above (John 15: 19; Colossians 3: 1-2).
Thank You
