BIBLE TEXT: JOHN 21: 12-19
- Jesus saith unto them, Come and Dine. And none of the Disciples durst ask Him, Who art thou? Knowing that it was the Lord.
- Jesus then cometh and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.
- This is now the third time that Jesus shewed Himself to His Disciples, after that He was risen from the dead.
- So, when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon son of Jonas, lovest thou Me more than these? He saith unto Him, Yea Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs
- He saith to him again the second time, Simon son of Jonas, lovest thou Me? He saith unto Him, Yea Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him, Feed my sheep.
- He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas thou love Me? Peter was grieved because He said unto him the third time, Lovest thou Me? And he said unto Him, Lord thou knowest all things, thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
- Verily, verily I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkeat whither thou wouldeat:: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not
- This spake He, signifying by what death he should Glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He saith unto him: Follow Me.
Tonight, I want to talk to you briefly about: THE MEAL THAT SEALS THE TURNAROUND – The Meal that puts a Seal on your Turnaround.
Last Year December, God gave you a Mighty Turnaround.
This Evening; God wants to put a Seal on that Turnaround.
We all know the Story of Peter. Before Jesus Christ went to the Cross, He Prophesied; He said: Simon, Simon; thou son of Jonas Satan wants to have you (To shift you) but I have Prayed for you.
… So, when you go through it all (that is Peter); strengthened your Brethren.
Peter said: Lord, I don’t know what kind of Parable is that. That if it means going with You to death; if any of these will run away from You – I will not run away from You.
The Lord said: Peter, before the cock crows twice, you will deny me three (3) times.
Ha, Peter said – IMPOSSIBLE! – Ok we will see.
The time came, the Test came and Peter failed three (3) times.
The Bible said that when Peter denied Jesus Christ the third (3rd) time and then the cock crows the second (2nd) time; Jesus Christ turned around, looked at Peter – their eyes met.
Peter remembered what the Lord has said. The Bible said that he went out and wept bitterly.
But then the Lord was crucified, the Lord was buried, the Lord rose from the dead and on the Resurrection Morning when the ladies brought the Good News that the Lord was risen; two (2) People ran to the Grave to find out – Peter and John.
John got there before Peter because he was younger, faster.
When he got to the Tomb, he stopped. When Peter came, he didn’t hesitate – He dashed into the Tomb.
… There was this Love in him that was irresistible.
God looked down from Heaven and saw someone who was “Truly Repentant”; someone who was ashamed of the mistake he made; someone who is still determined to follow God all the Way – He saw someone who was truly, truly Turnaround.
So, He arranged a “Divine Visitation”
You are here tonight , you think you are here for an Ordinary Holy Communion Service? – Oh, you are here for ” Divine Visitation” – Amen.
During that “Divine Visitation”; the Almighty God saw to it that for the rest of the Life of Peter; he never weeps again.
The Lord saw to it during that “Divine Visitation” that Peter will never backslide again – Amen.
Because when you look at Luke 5: 1-7; the Lord has already told Peter: No More Fishing for Fish. You will now be: Fishing For Men.
But at the beginning of John 21: 1-3; the same Peter said: I go back to Fishing.
But after that “Divine Encounter”; Peter never went back to Fishing.
You are about to take a Meal that I believed that in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ will make sure that you will never backslide again – Amen.
During the “Divine Encounter” arranged Specially for Peter (And for You and I); God saw to it that Peter will never make a Fruitless Efforts again.
Because when the Lord met him in Luke Chapter 5; he fished all night and caught nothing.
On this night too of John 21; he fished all night and caught nothing.
But after the Encounter with Jesus Christ; this time around, Fruitless Efforts ended in the Life of Peter.
Because the next time we saw him Preaching; he Preached a single sermon and won three thousand (3,000) Souls – That is Fruitfulness.
Then because Peter denied Jesus Christ three (3) times and had the memory that won’t forget; the Almighty God gave him an opportunity three (3) times – Peter you denied me three (3) times, let me ask you three (3) times: DO YOU LOVE ME!
He gave him an opportunity to say Yes Lord, You know all things – You know that I love You
The third (3rd) time, he said that I understand what You are saying – I know that I failed three (3) times. But You know all things – You know that I Love You!
From that Day onwards; Peter has no more Memories of his failure because the Almighty God has given him an opportunity to recommit himself. To say once again: Lord, I Love You.
Yes, I failed three (3) times; by Your Grace I won’t ever fail again.
It wasn’t long before that time that they brought Peter before the People that killed Jesus Christ. And they told him: Stop Preaching in the Name of Jesus Christ. But he said: Too late – You want to kill me this new time, kill me.
I know Him: There is no Salvation in any other name than the Name of Jesus Christ.
Tonight, in the Name that is above every other names; because of this “Divine Arrangement” arranged for you; every Memories of failures will fade away – Amen.
And then three (3) times; God gave him an opportunity for his Destiny to be Restored: Peter I told you that you will be Finishing for Men – That is your Destiny, that is why you are born, that is why I choose your boat and that is why we had that “Divine Encounter” that we had.
Now Peter, I want to assured you that: Heaven has not changed its mind – You are still “Fishing for Men” and feeding them. You will be taking care,of New Converts but you will be doing more.
Not just stop at nurturing them till they mature, you will move them to the Level of becoming Disciples.
Feed my Lamb, feed the young ones (New,Converts); feed the sheep (Those that are Disciples Materials).
I’m Praying for someone here today: Whatever is the Original Destiny of God for your Life will be Fully restored tonight – Amen.
And then Jesus Christ went further to say one more thing: Peter you will not only feed my sheep, feed my lamp, feed my sheep; I want you to know that you will now have a Closer Walk with Me.
… He said: Follow Me!
In one single Night, in one single Encounter; so many things happened in the Life of one man.
Oh, there are others there but Jesus Christ spoke to one man – He focused on one man.
A man who had wept in Repentance to say no more weeping. A man who backslides to say no more backsliding. To a man with a very bad Memories, to a man having Memories to say let us forget the Past. To a man who sees his Destiny is already truncated saying let us start afresh, let us restore you to your Destiny, let us move higher still.
Not just winning souls now but nurturing them, maturing them.
And He said finally to a man who follows from afar off, you can follow Me closely now.
All these happened after Jesus Christ said: Come and Dine!
Tonight, He is saying to someone in particular (There might be two (2) or three (3) of us) because I know He is speaking to me as much as He is speaking to you.
I know that He is saying to me: Come and Dine!
Of all the Holy Communion Services that you have ever attended; mark this one in your diary. We are not just taking the first (1st) Holy Communion in a New Year; we are taking the first Holy Communion in a New Decade.
Whatever happens this Year is going to affect what will happen in the next ten (10) Years.
And who knows, the Lord may return before the ten (10) Years are over. Who knows which Holy Communion will be the last!
But at least we have one assurance – At least those of us who are here tonight as you come to dine; our Destinies has been restored.
So, even if He comes before the end of this Year – Glory be to God; we will go with Him without any bad memories; we will go with Him without wasting another Fruitless Year; we will go with Him with an Assurance of a Closer Walk with Him.
But before He can say: Come and Dine; the first Invitation He ever gave is: Come unto Me all ye that labour and are heavily ladened and I will give you rest.
ALTAR CALL
So, if you are here and you have never responded to that Invitation – That Invitation must come before “Come and Dine”.
If you have never really surrendered your Life to Jesus Christ; you have been Playing Church up till this moment; maybe you just make up your mind tonight and come and surrender your Life to Jesus Christ.
Let Him save your Souls, let Him forgive your sins, let Him give you a brand New Beginning.
So, am going to count from one (1) to seven (7).
If you want to give your Life to Him – Come, He will save your Souls, He will forgive your sins, He will give you a brand New Beginning.
After then He can then say: Come and Dine!
If you want to give your life to Him, come now and don’t wait for any other Person.
This is your Day and I’m counting now …
You don’t come to Him unless you mean Business. Come only if you are really, really serious about surrendering one hundred percent (100%) to Him.
His Blood cleanses from all sins. There are Power Mighty in that Blood that can wash away your sins, wash away the Memories of the bad things you have ever done, put an end too your Fruitless Efforts and give you a brand New Beginning.
Thank You – Those of you who are still on the way, keep coming.
And those of you already infront now; talk to the Almighty God: Tell Him Lord please save my Souls. I want You to know that I Love You and I want to be Yours forever. Have Mercy on me, forgive my sins, receive me into the Family of God and I will serve You for the rest of my Life – Talk to Him!
And the rest of us, can we stretch our hands to these People and intercede for them that the One who saved our Souls will save their own Souls also.
Pray that the Almighty God will give them Genuine Salvation and they will never backslide.
That the Almighty God will keep them till the very end – Please Pray for them.
Thank You Father. And if anyone is still coming; I’m about to Pray now – Just keep coming and make sure that you get here before I finished Praying. And the Almighty God will save your Souls also.
Thank You Lord. In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
PRAYER OF SALVATION
Father, I just want to say Thank You for Your Words and Thank You for Your children that has come forward now to surrender their lives to You.
Please Father, remember Your Promise that whosoever will come unto You; You will no wise cast away.
They have come now Father; please receive them, forgive them, save their Souls, let Your Blood wash away their sins, write their names in the Book of Life.
Please receive them into the Family of God and from now on, anytime they call on You answer them by Fire.
In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
Now, those of you infront I rejoice with you because from now on by the Grace of God I will be Praying for you.
So, I’m going to need your names, your address and your Prayer Request.

Before the end of this Month; I want Testimonies that the People I touched got their Healings.
The Lord Jesus Christ, the very Night of which He was betrayed took the Bread and when He has given Thanks; He broke it and said: Take, Eat – This is My Body broken for you do this in remembrance of Me. In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit – Amen.
When you drink the wine tonight; you ask the Almighty God to put a SEAL on your Turnaround and to restore you to your Destiny fully.
Pray the Prayer with all your heart because this is a defining moments in your History.
After the same manner also He took the cup. When He has sup saying this cup is a New Testament in my Blood please do ye as oft as you drink it in remembrance of Me. In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit – Amen.
Thank You Father. Lord have Mercy.

Thank You Almighty God. In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
Let somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!
Please be seated. Pass your cups to the aisles.
DADDY GO CHARGE TO WORKERS.
Hope somebody will tell these workers that if you do the right thing at the wrong time; then that thing is not right – It is wrong.
When I said all hands should be joined and I saw some workers doing other things.
There is a time for everything.
The Bible says that you have to Love your as yourself.
That means that you are to love yourself first before you love your neighbour.
Anything that you are doing that is going to bring you into a “Lost”; you must be doing the wrong thing at that particular time.
… Please, let us take note of that!
THANKSGIVING
This is our first (1st) Holy Communion Service in the New Year.
