MESSAGE
The Topic before us this Hour is: WONDERFUL
Isaiah 9:6 – For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the Government shall be upon His Shoulder and his Name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
When you read Isaiah 9:6, the Scripture tells us that Christ was given to us, a child was born and He was given to us in the world and the Government shall be upon His shoulder.
And the first Name mentioned to us about the Lord Jesus Christ is WONDERFUL.
I am sure you know that there is something that is called the LAW OF FIRST MENTION.
Which means whatever was mentioned or is mentioned first is the most important.
So, therefore Wonderful among the Names of the Lord Jesus Christ is the most important.
So therefore you begin to ask: What is wonderful? – What does it mean?
And I begin to think to myself as I was given this Topic to speak upon it this Hour.
- I want you to know my Brothers and Sisters; Young Adults and the Youth of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) all over the world: Wonderful is both a Happening and a Person.
I. As a “Happening” it manifested as a Miracle, as a Sign and as a Wonder of Transformation that usually/often leave Spectators or Observers lost for words.
II. But Wonderful as a “Person” or as an “Entity” obviously as we can see manifested itself as our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
So, therefore it is important to note that Wonderful can be Personified for you and I.
For example: As it Pertains to me as a Young Adult – Born Again Christian, a child of God in Psalms 40:1-6 (AMP); especially verses 5 and 6 as it pertains to us, it says
- Many, O Lord my God, are the wonderful works which you have done, And your thoughts towards us; There is none to compare with you. If I would declare and speak of your wonders, they would be too many to count.
- Sacrifice and meal offering you do not desire, nor do you delight in them. You have opened the ears and given me capacity to hear (and obey your word); burnt offering and sin offering you do not require.
That is a Young Adult and Youth name David, Personifying Wonderful as it pertains to him.
You can also to the audio here: Wonderful by Pastor Dare Adeboye
And if there is any Young Adult and Youth who ought to know what Wonderful pertains, it is this Young man David.
He was a Product of a “One Night Stand”; found himself in Sambisa Forest (The name of a Large Area Forest Reserve in the Northern Part of Nigeria); Fellowshipping with Boko Haram (Terrorist Group), ISIS (Terrorist Group) and the rest.
But yet in that Jungle; Wonderful was Personified to him.
Can I Pray for every Young Adults and Youth under my voice – Who is a Castaway? Who has been forgotten? Who has been Pushed aside?
If you believe you are the one God is speaking to let your Amen be loud and clear – Amen.
- How can wonderful be Personified to me?
As a Youth Pastor, as a Man of God; it can be Personified using the example of Jesus Christ.
In Act 10:38 (AMP);
- How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with great Power; and He went about doing Good and Healing all who were oppressed by the devil, because God was with Him.
Because He carries the anointing, He went about doing Wonderful Things.
And because we are Representatives of the Lord Most High – Our Lord Jesus Christ; we are also meant to go about in our Ministry doing Wonderful Things.
That is why the Bible tells us in the Book of Romans 15:18 and 19 (AMP).
This is Apostle Paul speaking here – He says:
- For I will not [even] presume to speak of anything except what Christ has done through me [as an instrument in His hands], resulting in the obedience of the Gentiles [to the gospel], by word and deed,
- with the power of signs and wonders, [and all of it] in the power of the Spirit. So [starting] from Jerusalem and as far away as Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel [faithfully preaching the good news] of Christ [where it had not before been preached].
Apostle Paul who was destined for hell, who came into the Salvation of the Lord Most High when he had an encounter with God on the way.
And he became the foremost Youth Pastor, the foremost Young Adult and Youth Pastor, the foremost Young Adult and Youth Apostle of his time – And he went about doing Good.
Can I Pray for every Young Adults, every Youth Pastor, every Youth – Wherever you may be, and every Singles in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG); wherever you may be listening to me, watching this broadcast right now or reading on the Label of DMC: From today henceforth, you shall begin to experience Wonderful Things in your Ministry – Amen.
If you believe you are the one God is speaking to; let God hear your Amen loud and clear – AMEN!
Several years ago, I had the opportunity to go and Minister at a Young Adult and Youth Church in an inner Village in Kaduna State (Nigeria).
It was a Ministration for three (3) days and I went there, asking God to use me for His Glory.
When I got there, the Pastor said, Oh, we did not believe you were going to come – We have invited many other Big Men of God, but they didn’t come.
I said well the first difference is: I’m not a Big Man of God. I’m a small boy of God.
Number two (2) is that Young Adults and Youth, that is my Passion.
… That is why God has asked me to come.
After we finished Ministering for three (3) days we left.
The following week the Pastor called us and said: Sir, you will not believe what happened to us.
I said what happened?
He said after you left; a family came carrying their dying and sick mother. She was dying of HIV.
The doctors had given up on her and they said take her home, let her go and die in her own bed – So, that you can have a few more hours with her before she Passes away.
They said then we rushed her to the Church.
When they rushed her to the Church; the Pastor said: Well, there was a Young Man that came to Minister not too long ago. Go and lay your mother on that Altar and just Praise God, don’t ask for anything – Just Praise God and then take your mother home.
They did so for one (1) Hour. They took the mother home.
And by Sunday morning things had changed.
When they came back they went to the Pastor to come and share their Testimony that our mother who should have died over the weekend is still alive.
The Pastor said: Take her to the Hospital.
On Monday morning, they took her to the Hospital the doctors ran all the tests on her – And there was no more trace of HIV virus.
They ran the test again there was no more trace of HIV virus.
They ran back to the Church to share their Testimony and everybody who heard the Testimony began to open their mouth in Wonder.
Did it have to do with me? – No!
It has to do with the God who has Called and Sent me!
Can i Pray once again for every Young Adults and Youth Pastor in the Ministry all over the world in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) – From this day henceforth; you will begin to experience Wonderful Things in your Ministry in the Mighty Name of Jesus – Amen.
If you believe so: Let God hear your Amen loud and clear – AMEN.
What does Wonderful mean to be – As a son, as a brother or a husband and as a father?
Well, the Bible tells us in the Book of 1 John 5:4 (AMP) that: For everyone born of God is Victorious and Overcomes the world; and this is the Victory that has conquered and overcome the world — our [continuing, persistent] Faith [in Jesus the Son of God].
So, therefore If Jesus who is Wonderful is Victorious:
I. It means as a son, i ought to be a Victorious and a Wonderful son.
II. It means as a husband, I am a Wonderful husband.
III. It means of a father, I am a Wonderful father.
IV. It means as a sibling, I am a Wonderful sibling.
Why? – Because I am Joint Heirs with Christ.
I don’t know who God is speaking to – Any Young Adult and Youth that have been labeled a “Black Sheep” in their family. I have come backed by the Grace and Anointed of God from Heaven to decree and declare over you – From this day henceforth, you will no longer be the “Black Sheep” – Amen. You will no longer be the Failure – Amen. You will no longer be the Victim but you shall become a source of Wonder in your family, in the Mighty Name of Jesus – Jesus.
What does Wonderful Pertain to me?
As a Personify – Well it Pertains to mean just as simply as a Human Being who appreciates the work of God all around me.
That is why Job 37:1-16 (AMP) and we will focus on verses 14 to 16.
- “Listen to this, Job; Stand still and consider the wonders of God.
- “Do you know how God establishes and commands them, And makes the lightning of His [storm] cloud shine?
- “Do you know about the layers of thick clouds [and how they are balanced and poised in the heavens]. The wonderful works of Him who is perfect in knowledge
Do you know Job was going through a tough time?
He was experiencing Pandemic, just like we are right now.
But in the midst of that Pandemic; God spoke to him and said look around you – You can see Wonders all around you. You can see Wonderful Things that I have created all around you.
If I can do that, then I can take care of your situation.
*I don’t know who God is speaking to at this moment – Wherever you may be located, whatever situation you find yourself at the moment. I hereby decree the God who admits the Wonderful Things around you; He will make your life Wonderful – Amen. He will make your Destiny Wonderful – Amen. He will make your Story Wonderful – Amen.
If you believe so, let God hear your Amen loud and clear – AMEN.
Please take note, my dear Brothers and Sisters, that the word Wonderful is a “Tri-Syllabic Word”.
Tri-Syllabic word means it contains three (3) Syllables.
I. “WON” is the first (1st) Syllable.
II. “WONDER” is the second (2nd) Syllable.
III. “WONDERFUL” is the third (3rd) Syllable.
Just like Trinity, which means this name, Wonderful has to do with the Trinity in Heaven.
How do I notice?
I. Well, the first (1st) Syllable “WON” is the Past Tense of Win.
Which means that Victory has already taken Place. Not that you have to fight for it, somebody already fought for it.
Somebody already Assured the Victory; Somebody already Guaranteed the Victory.
That is why when Jesus Christ spoke on the Cross, when He was about to give up the Ghost – And He said: It is Finished.
What He was simply saying is that: The Victory has been Won.
When the devil and demons heard Jesus Christ speak, they miss heard – They thought Jesus Christ was saying: “I am Finished”, but they were mistaken.
When they heard those words in Hell, they began to rejoice.
They were throwing a Party and they were dancing “Shoki” and all manners of dances.
But when Jesus entered hell, shock cut them – Their “Shoki” turn to “Shock”.
Can I Pray for somebody under the sound of my voice or reading on the Label of DMC – Every battles of life raging against you; whatever it may be; wherever it may be coming from either in your father’s house or in your mother’s house. Wherever it may be coming from; i want you to know that Victory is Guaranteed – Amen.
Why? – Because 1 Corinthians 15:57 (AMP) tells us: But thanks be to God, who gives us the Victory [as conquerors] through our Lord Jesus Christ.
… Victory is Assured!
Wherever you are if you believe Victory is yours declare it – Victory is Mine!
II. The Second (2nd) Syllable of the word wonderful is “WONDER”.
And I want you to know that everything about God is Wonder – Everything.
That is why the Scripture tells us in Psalms 72:18 (AMP) it says and I read: Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel, who alone does wonderful things.
So, when you are thinking of the word “Wonder”; it is all about God.
And because you and I are children of the Most High God and because this is a Ministry, whose surname is God – The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).
It thereby means that only things that should be happening in this Mission are Wonderful things – Amen.
So, if you believe wherever you are listening to this broadcast or you are reading this on the Label of DMC and you are a Member of this family – the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), I have come with Good News for you and Bad News for all your enemies. In the Name of the Lord of Host, all throughout your life you shall experience Wonder – Amen.
If you believe that you are the one God is speaking to, let him hear your Amen loud and clear – AMEN.
III. The third (3rd) Syllable in the word ‘WONDERFUL’ is Full.
Full simply means it is full to Overflowing – It is not Empty; it is not Half Empty.
That is why when you read the Book of Psalms 23:1-6 (AMP) – You see David, a Young Adult and Youth begin to talk about God.
And it says when you get to verse five (5), it says: …You have anointed and refreshed my head with oil; my cup overflows.
He is talking about “Full to Overflowing” because he knows as a Young Adult and Youth, who does not have Experience, who does not have a lots of money – God can still make everything Wonderful to Overflowing.
I hereby Pray for every Young Adult and Youth wherever you are located or reading this now on the Label of DMC – Who is seeking the face of God for one Breakthrough or the other. By the time you leave this Convention, in the Name of the Lord of Host, that buckets that you came here empty with; that bucket that you came here half full; in the Name of the Lord of Host;it shall begin to flow to Overflowing – Amen.
If you believe you are the one God is speaking to let your Amen overshadow that of your Neighbour – Amen.
- Now, Wonders can be Performed around you and you can be a Spectator.
That is why in John 5:1-7; there was a man who was a Spectator for thirty eight (38) Years – Wonders were taking Place around him every Year, every Season, every Month, every Week.
Miracles were happening, Wonderful Things were happening to other People but he was just a Spectator until a day like today, when God decided to change his story.
You may have come here all these years for seventy (70) years, eighty (80) years, ninety (90) years, and you have not experienced Wonder quite yet; I have come with Good News for you – Today, your Season of being a Spectator has come to an end – Amen.
If you believe you are the one God is speaking to let your God hear your Amen loud and clear – Amen.
- Wonders can be Performed in you or to you and Others around you are now the Spectators.
How do we know these?
In Mark 10:46-52 – There was a Young Man, a Young Adult and Youth named Bartimaeus – That the whole world have labelled “Blind the Bathemus”.
That was not the name the father gave him; that was not the name the mother calls him – It is the world that labelled him “Blind the Bartimaeus”.
Even till today, many people still refer to him as “Blind by Bartimaeus”.
But for many years, he was not even a Spectator because he had no eyes to see.
But on a day like today; his story changed and he became the source of Wonder, and all around him became Spectators.
I hereby decree by the Anointing of God that is upon this Commission – In the Name of the Lord of Host, Wonders will begin to take Place in your life, in your home, in your family, in your finances, in your business, in your career, in your academics, and all around you will observe the Wonder of God over your life – Amen.
If you believe you are the one God is speaking to let him hear your Amen loud and clear – Amen!
- And then finally, do you know that Wonders can be Performed through you?
Not that it happened to somebody else and you were a Spectator; not that it happened to you and Others were Spectators because that just simply means that you are Blessed.
But Wonders can be Performed through you and the whole earth, even Hell and Heaven will acknowledge the Glory of God all over you.
It is Possible my Brothers and Sisters – That God can use you as a “Channel of Blessings” in your Generation – Amen.
That is why God has brought you here to this Convention or made you to be reading now on the Label of DMC!
And that was a case of Esther.
Esther was a house girl in a Strange land but somehow through the Wonders of God, she became a Queen.
And the Bible says God put her there for such a time as this!
Do you know that it is in the “Darkest Hour” that Light shines the brightest?
The whole world is going through a Pandemic right now but it is Possible that God can use you to be a Vessel, to be a Shining Light, to be an Agent of Change in your Generation – Amen.
I don’t know who God is speaking to, but I believe it is one Young Adult, in addition to myself, listening to me right now or reading now on the Label of DMC – In the Name of the Lord of Host, all the days of your life from now on, the Wonders of God will be Performed through you – Amen.
If you believe so let your Amen be loud and clear – Amen.
In conclusion, 2 Corinthians 7:1 (AMP) says: Therefore, since we have these [great and wonderful] Promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, completing holiness [living a consecrated life—a life set apart for God’s Purpose] in the fear of God.
ALTAR CALL
My Brothers and Sisters, we have all these Wonderful Promises – Wonderful Promises of Victory; Wonderful Promises of being Agents and Vessels of Wonders.
But all of these things can only happens:
I. If we are no longer living a life of sin.
II. If we are no longer entangled with the unrighteousness of this world.
III. If we are no longer blemished by all the atrocities that is taking Place in our Generation.
So therefore, wherever you are – I want you to bow your heads and talk to God.
You know, even if your Pastor does not know, even if your Neighbour does not know; you know that God knows the kind of life you have been living.
Yes, you want a Wonderful Life, but it cannot happened for you if you are living in sin.
So, the first (1st) Thing you should do is to ask God for forgiveness of sins – Ask Him to cleanse you, ask Him to make you Pure as white as snow, ask Him to give you a Brand New Beginning. That Old Things will Pass away and all Things will become New.
Ask him to give you a Good Name, a Wonderful Name like Wonderful.
And then commit your entire Destiny into His Hands, that He will bless you and make you Wonderful in your Generation and beyond.
Thank you Father. Blessed be Your Holy Name.
In Jesus Mighty Name we have Pray – Amen.
CLOSING PRAYER
For every request you have put before God this Hour, I stand here as a Mouthpiece of the Most High God and I decree and declare over you that it shall be done.
Your Salvation shall be secured – Your sins shall be washed away, you shall receive a Brand New Beginning (A New Beginning of Wonderful).
You will not only see Wonderful Things Happening, you will experience Wonderful Things.
You will not only experience Wonderful Things, through you, Others will experience Wonderful Things.
So shall it be – In the Name of God the Father, in the Name of God the Son, in the Name of God the Holy Spirit.
Thank you Lord, for in Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen
God bless you – Do have a Wonderful Evening.
Thank you so much for staying all through to read.
