BIBLE TEXT: JOHN 4:23-24

(repeated)

OPENING PRAYER:

Almighty God, the God of all flesh. The One with whom nothing is impossible. Jehovah El-Shaddai, we bless Your Holy Name. Please, accept our Thanks in Jesus’ Name.

Today, in a very, very Special manner; draw close to Your children. Please Lord, grant their request today. Give everyone of us here today (or reading now) a very Pleasant surprise.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!

BIBLE TEXT: JOHN 4:23-24

  1. But the hour cometh, and is, when the True Worshippers shall worship the Father in Spirit and in Truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship Him.
  2. God is a Spirit: and they that Worship Him must Worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.

There is a link between PRAISE and FRUITFULNESS.

WHY? – Because, when you Praise God, like we learnt last Friday Night – God draws near.

It says God is a Spirit; they that Worship Him must Worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.

It says the Father seeketh such to Worship Him.

All we know, God hears Prayers. We know He answers Prayers.

But we also know that there is a condition to answered Prayers. Because the Book of Isaiah tells us that:

“We are to seek the Lord while He may be found. We are to call on Him while He is near.”

And the problem with answered Prayers had always been: “How do I know when God is near?” (because He is a Spirit). I can’t see Him so how do I know when He is near?’ How do I know when He is far away?

But the Bible says: If you Worship Him, you don’t have to look for Him – He will look for You.

In other words, those who know how to Praise God have discovered the SECRET of drawing God near.

That when the Father – GOD THE FATHER draws near you, He REVERSES the irreversible.

Because in Genesis 18:1-14, when He paid Abraham and Sarah a visit, He REVERSED the irreversible!

The one who had not menstruated for more than forty (40) years suddenly began to menstruate again and within nine (9) Months, a baby came.

If you can Praise God so that God the Father draws near you, even what the doctor said cannot be done, God will do it.

Now when “GOD THE SON” draws near you, then according to Philippians 4:19; all Needs become met because He said my God shall supply ALL your NEEDS according to His Riches in Glory by Christ Jesus.

So if Christ Jesus draws near you, all Needs will be met – ALL NEEDS includes the fruit of the womb.

When “God the Son” draws near; failure is replaced with Success. Because Philippians 4:13 says: “I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me.”

So, when God the Father draws near, He Reverses the irreversible. When God the Son draws near, ALL needs are met and failure is replaced with Success.

Which means that as we Praise Him today, as the Father draws near us; as the Son draws near us; what we have been trying all these years and we have been meeting with failures: before the end of this Month, there will be shout of Joy – Amen!

And what happens when “GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT” draws near?

If we Praise God (as to get the Holy Spirit to draw near us); then according to Ezekiel 37:1-10; suddenly, DRY BONES begin to LIVE again!

Because, when God took His servant to the Valley of dry bones, and He asked His servant to Prophesy, and he Prophesied – bones came to bones. He Prophesied and flesh covered them.

The Bible said, there was still no LIFE in them; until the wind blew and that Wind is the HOLY SPIRIT.

So, when you Praise God and the Holy Spirit draws near. Suddenly, even dry bones will begin to live again – Amen.

Like I have always said to my children: when Prayer seems to fail, try PRAISE – Praise will never fail.

As you see in Matthew 15:21-28, the Bible tells us, a woman came to Jesus Christ crying with a loud voice: “Have Mercy on me, I need Help”‘.

The Bible says Jesus Christ couldn’t even answer her a word. She kept on crying, praying loud and clear.

The disciples said: ‘Lord, let us send this woman away, she is too noisy.

Jesus Christ said: Am not sent but unto the Lordship of the house of Israel.

Finally, Jesus said: “I can’t give the bread of children to dogs”.

But the Bible said The woman came and WORSHIPPED Him – She has been Praying but she changed her tactics to WORSHIP Him, instead of Praying.

… And that very day, the dog became a son. The woman got what she wanted!

My Brethren, today we want to change tactics; we have Prayed, we haven’t seen answers yet. We have cried, we have fasted, we have done everything but today, we are going to PRAISE GOD for a change!

And as we Praise Him, I know He will draw near us. And when He draws near us then, the irreversible will be REVERSED!

All Needs will be met; Failure will be changed to Success; and even dry bones will live again.

So, we are going to spend sometime PRAISING GOD.

After I have Prayed for you, then, please spend time Praising God.

Many a times when I say ok, I have Prayed for you, now spend time with your God; I find out that within five (5) minutes, some people are already leaving.

I thought you came for something Special. Supposed I have not even finished Preaching, will you hurry away?

Spend time with God: He is the One you have come to meet. Spend time with Him.

ALTAR CALL:

So, before I Pray for you, if there is anyone who hasn’t given his or her life to Jesus Christ (because even the Praise of a sinner is an abomination to God).

If you have not given your life to Jesus Christ and you want to give your life to Him so that your PRAISE will be acceptable to Him, please come forward very, very quickly – we don’t have time to waste.

You might be the only one. I will count from one (1) to four (4). If you want to give your life to Jesus Christ. If you haven’t done so, before I count four (4) come and and stand before me here, let me Pray for your Salvation.

If anybody wants to give his or her life to Jesus Christ, come very quickly now as I begin to count from one (1) to four (4)…

Once He saves your soul, it is going to be MARVELOUS. As you begin to Praise Him, He will draw near to you.

… And the counsellors, if they are around, will come forward because I want you to attend to the people right here.

Very good! Those of you who have come forward, cry unto the Lord now: Ask Him to save your soul. Ask Him to forgive your sins. Ask Him to receive you into the Family of God.

And the rest of us, let us stretch our hands towards these people and intercede for them. And Pray that the One Who saved our own souls will save their own souls also. Let us pray for them. Let us intercede for them for a minute or two.

… Counsellors, please come and join them here because you will be attending to them in this place.

Those of you who have come forward, talk to the Lord: Have Mercy on me. Save my soul. Become my Lord; become my Saviour. Just have Mercy on me. Almighty God, just have Mercy on me.

And the rest of us, let us Pray for them for just one (1) more minute, asking that God will please, look down with Mercy on these people and save their souls and forgive all their sins. And write their names in the “Book of Life”.

Thank You my Father. In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!

PRAYER FOR SALVATION:

My Lord and my Saviour, I just want to say THANK YOU! Thank You for Your Words; Thank You for these people who have decided that they want to surrender their lives to You.

Please, remember Your Promise that whosoever will come unto You, You will in no wise cast out. They have come to You now Father, please, receive them in Jesus’ Name.

Let Your Blood wash away their sins. Save their souls and write their names in the “Book of Life” in Jesus’ Name.

Please, receive them into the Family of God. Let them remain Yours forever. And from now on, anytime they call on You, please, answer them by fire.

Thank You my Father and my God. In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!

Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!

Now, I want to rejoice with those of you who are in front. From now (on by the Grace of God) I will be Praying for you. So some counsellors are near you now:

They are going to give you some pieces of paper that I want you to fill very quickly. And you return to them: You give your names, your address and your Prayer requests and I Promise you, I will be Praying for you.

… You may need to move a little forward while you are doing that.

The rest of us, I want you to draw close to the Altar, so that I can Pray with you first and then, you can spend quality time PRAISING GOD!

Quality time Praising God today until He would draw near you; until you will feel the Presence of God the Father and the Presence of God the Son and the Presence of God the Holy Spirit.

Remember – when God the Father draws near you, He REVERSES the irreversible;

  • When God the Son draws near, He meets all NEEDS and Changes failure to SUCCESS;
  • When God the Holy Spirit draws near, even Dry Bones will LIVE AGAIN.

So, let us draw close to Him as I pray for you now.

Lift your hands to the Almighty God and receive the Blessing of the Lord now.

CLOSING PRAYER:

My Father and my God, I want to THANK YOU!

I want to Thank You because I know with You, all things are Possible.

I want to Thank You because I know You can even bring water out of the rock how much more bringing children out of wombs.

I want to thank You because You have done the unbelievable before. You have reversed the irreversible before. You have made the impossible, Possible before. You have caused dry bones to live again.

So, Father, on behalf of all Your children, accept our thanks in Jesus’ Name.

In a moment, Your children will begin to PRAISE YOU – As they begin to Praise, God the Father, draw near them.

When You drew near Sarah, within nine (9) Months, she was carrying a baby. Draw near Your children today.

God the Son, please draw near Your children: let all their Needs be met. This Month, let there be no failure.

Holy Spirit, draw near Your children. Cause dry bones to Live again.

Father, when Your children begin to Testify with their twins and triplets, let them say: “When we PRAISE God, God draws near us”.

Thank You my Father. Glory be to Your Holy Name. In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed.

  • Amen!

Now, you are going to Praise Him. Just do it your own way – Sing to Him, Dance, Rejoice.

When you feel satisfied, then you drop your Offerings and go.

In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ, this Month you shall SING – Amen!

So, let us just go ahead; let us begin to PRAISE GOD: Praise Him in your own way. Do it your own way. Praise Him till He draws near to you. Begin to Glorify His Holy Name.

… JUST PRAISE HIM!

Thank you so much for staying all through to read.
