The Short Message that the Lord gave to me for this Ordination/Graduation Ceremony is Titled – “THE EXPLOITS OF HOLINESS”.

And turn with me to the Book of Hebrews 12:14 – As we read it together.

Hebrews 12:14 – Follow Peace with all men, and Holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord.

… Without which, no Deacon or Deaconess or Assistant Pastor or Pastor or Continental Overseer or Regional Pastor; shall see the Lord.

May the Lord bless the reading of the Words in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

There are many Prefix that are used for the Name of the Lord – Like “God is Love”; “God is Kind”; “God is Glorious”; “God is Majestic”; “God is Awesome”; “God is Wonderful” etc.

But there is a Prefix that God loves the most – And that is: “Holy, Holy, Holy”.

There are two men in the Scriptures by the Special of God that are Permitted to see into the Throne Room of Heaven. And God inspired them to write.

Both of them reported hearing continuous refrains – Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord.

Isaiah 6:3 says: And one cried unto another and said; Holy, Holy, Holy, is the Lord of Hosts: the whole Earth is full of His Glory.

Another Person that wrote Revelation – Our Beloveth John in Revelation 4:8 says: And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.

This is the only thing about God that is Pronounced in this Version!

No other Attributes:

  • Not: Loving, Loving, Loving.
  • Not: Awesome, Awesome, Awesome.

Do you know the situation in the first Song in the Scriptures that appears in Exodus Chapter 15 and the Last Song in Revelation Chapter 15; were both focused on the Holiness of the Almighty God.

In Exodus 15:11 – After this Holy God had helped the Israelites to overcome their Enemies; after they defeated the Egyptians and they crossed over the Red Sea. The Song they sang can be found in Exodus 15:11.

Let Us sing it together:

Who is like unto thee, O LORD,
Among the gods?
Who is like thee,
Glorious in Holiness,
Fearful in Praises.
Doing Wonders Hallelujah

Under a very clear Revelation; John the Beloved revert back to the Song of Moses in Revelation 15: 3-4:

  1. And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the Song of the Lamb, saying, Great and Marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of Saints.
  2. Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and Glorify thy Name? for thou only art Holy: for all Nations shall come and Worship before thee; for thy Judgments are made manifest.

Again and again, in the Scriptures; we see how vital Holiness is and indeed the Exploits of Holiness is Unquantifiable in the Scriptures.

Apostle Paul in 1 Peter 1: 15-16 says:

  1. But as He which hath called you is Holy, so be ye Holy in all manner of conversation;
  2. Because it is written, Be ye Holy; for I am Holy

You remembered in Hebrews 12:14; the Bible says: Follow Peace with all Men.

Now I 1 Peter 1: 15-16; it says that because He who has Called you is Holy, you must be Holy in all your conversation because it is written: Be ye Holy as I am Holy.

Look at your Neighbour or as you read now on the Label of DMC and say: The Message for you for this hour as you are Ordained Deacon, Deaconess, Assistant Pastor, Pastor or Graduating from Bible College or School of Disciples (SOD) in The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) is “Be Holy”.

When Hannah received her Miracle, when God answered her Prayers and God gave her a son; she sang that famous Song in 1 Samuel 2:2.

Can we sing it together:

There is None Holy as the Lord:
For there is None beside thee:
Neither is there any Rovk like our God.
There is None Holy as the Lord.

May that be your Song today as you receive your Miracles in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

May that be your Song as you continue in your Journey in this Path to Heaven in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

Quickly because of our time, let us explore the seven (7) Exploits of Holiness that makes it such a Great Demand in our Christian Journey!

  1. Holiness makes the Christian Pure and Clean; Inside and Outside.

Holiness is being Set Apart. It means for anything to be completely given over to God.

To be Holy is to be “Absolutely Pure”.

Habakkuk 1:13 – In NIV Bible Version says: Your eyes are too Pure to look on evil; you cannot tolerate wrongdoing. Why then do you tolerate the Treacherous? Why are you silent while the Wicked swallow up those more Righteous than themselves?

The eyes of the Lord is Pure – God cannot tolerate wrong doings.

So for you to have Exploits, you must be Pure Inside and Outside.

Who will go unto the Hill of the Lord? Who will go to the Mountain of the Lord? He that has Clean Hands and a Pure Heart (DMC NOTES: Psalms 24: 3-4).

  1. Holiness drives Darkness away from your Life as a Child of God.

Holiness makes a Christian to be Pure as Light!

As soon as Light begins to Shine, you don’t have to Decree, you don’t have to Command, you don’t have to “Speak in Tongues” – Darkness will automatically be driven away.

John 8:12 says: Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the Light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in Darkness, but shall have the Light of Life.

  1. With Holiness, the Christian shall Possess their Possessions.

Obadiaah 1:17 says: But upon Mount Zion shall be Deliverance, and there shall be Holiness; and the house of Jacob shall Possess their Possessions.

  1. Only Holy People can see God.

Hebrews 12:14 says: Follow Peace with all men, and Holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

They may write about you, you may be the Subject of Discussion.

They may write emails, they may have a Webcast to downgrade you, to download you or to say all manners of things against you.

(DMC NOTES: Webcast is a Video Broadcast of an Event that is Transmitted over the Internet)

Sir/Ma; they can do that because they are not heading to Heaven.

But you are not Permitted to hate them but to Love them.

Because the Bible says – Follow Peace with how many Men? – All!

Those that like you, or hate you; write Strickened Images about you – The Bible says: Follow Peace with all Men, without which you will not see the Lord.

Isaiah 59:2 says: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.

May God not hide His Face from you in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

  1. Holiness is the Master Key that opens the Door and access you to Heaven.

Isaiah 60:11 says: Therefore thy Gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring unto thee the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought.

… That is if you are Holy!

  1. Holiness give us access to the Secrets of God and ensures that everything in our hands will Prosper.

Say to your Neighbour or as you read now on the Label of DMC – The work of your hands will Prosper and you will have access to the Secret of God.

2 Chronicles 26:15 says – And he made in Jerusalem engines, invented by cunning men, to be on the towers and upon the bulwarks, to shoot arrows and great stones withal. And his name spread far abroad; for he was marvellously helped, till he was Strong.

This Man called Uzziah, at age sixteen (16); God made him a King.

And Guess what? God helped him to invent engines, to shoot arrows and his name spread abroad, for he was “Marvelously Helped”.

May your Heart not be lifted against God in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

One Characteristic that distinguishes Joseph as read in Psalms 105:21 – It says that: He made him lord of his house and ruler of all his Substance.

As you live Holy, the Almighty God will grant you Favour and He will make you the Lord in your City in the Name of Jesus – Amen! And you shall rule over the Substances of God in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

  1. Holiness help us to operate in the Dimension of Anointing that breaks Yokes.

Can you imagine my father-in-the-Lord coming to the Altar and say: Let Somebody shout Hallelujah.

And Miracles are happening – The Blind are seeing, and the Lame are walking.

What is the Secret? – Holiness.

Micah 3:8 says – But truly I am full of Power by the Spirit of the LORD, and of Judgment, and of Might, to declare unto Jacob his Transgression, and to Israel his sin.

But you know Sir/Ma – When you go to “CBS” and the Doctors Prescribed the Medication for you.

They will say: There is going to be Conditions:

I. That you take the Tablets; one Tablet a Day.

II. That you are going to take the Tablet after you have taken your Breakfast.

What happened when you say that it doesn’t mattered anyway – I am the one sick I know.

What happens if you violate the Doctor’s Instructions?

May God help is in Jesus Name – Amen!

DMC NOTES: Corticobasal Syndrome (CBS) is a condition that causes Changes in Movement Language Skills or both. CBS may start with Movement Problems, such as Stiff Muscles on one side of the body involving the arm, leg, or both. People with CBS may describe having a hard time controlling their arm or leg.

Quickly as we Summarise and end this Sermon:

There are four (4) things that you must do to keep you on the Straight and Narrow Way – And each of these four (4) things start with the Letter “S”:

  1. Silver
  2. Sloth or Indolence or Idleness or Laziness

DMC NOTES: Sloth means reluctance to work or make an effort to work

  1. Self
  2. Sex

These are items that you must be careful of – They are Occupational Hazards!

We all know that a Breakdown of a Personality morally never occur suddenly – It comes about Slowly and Slowly and Slowly almost imperceptible like a slow leak in the tyre.

However because it is hidden, because it is rationalised; we ignore it, we tolerate it and guess what; if you are not careful, it brings us down.

Please Sir/Ma; there are some times as I look back at my Life; there are some Questiins that I ask myself without anybody asking .

Because when you look at God, He says that I have gone to the house of Jesse to find a Man after my own Heart.

He put a Satellite – The Satellite in Heaven was on Jesse’s Houshold; looking among all the sons of Jesse which of them is fit.

God never announces when He is coming!

But do you know that there is a Satellite of Heaven in your Secret, in your Public and in your Private Life – And God is searching!

And Sir/Ma, as God searches; I Pray that God will find you fit in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

So, there are Nine (9) Questiions that you must ask yourself Personally!

Let Us go through them – You are going to ask Yourself:

  1. Have you been with a Person of the Opposite Sex this Week in an Inappropriate Way or Manner?
  2. Have you been Completely above Reproach in all Financial Dealings this Week?
  3. This Question is Specifically for Pastors:

Have you been Playing “Devilish Mathematical Gymnastics” with your Tithes and your Remittances – With the excuse that it is The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG)?

  1. Have you exposed Yourself to any Sexual Explicit Materials this Week?

Play Boy, Play Girl – Pornography!

  1. Have you spent time Daily in Prayer and in the Scriptures this Week and this Day?
  2. Have you fulfilled the Mandate of your Calling this Week?
  3. Have you taken Time off with your Family this Week?

Leave the wife of Jesus Christ alone – The Church of God is the wife of Jesus Christ.

Stop Committing “Spiritual Adultery”.

  1. Have you included this kind of Topics in your Messages?

There is no Message our father-in-the-Lord or our mother-in-the-Lord will Preach that will not include Holiness, Purity or Obedience.

You are Ordained as Deacons or Deaconesses or Assistant Pastors or Full Pastors – And Daddy GO will not go through your Sermon Note Sir/Ma.

But may I ask you Sir/Ma – In your Last Message:

  • Have you included the word “Holiness” in your Message?
  • Does “Purity” come up in your Message?
  • Does the Word “Obedience” come up in your Message?
  • When was the Last Time that you talked about “Heaven” in your Message?
  • When was the Last Time that you talked about “The Love of the Master” in your Message?
  1. Have you just lied to Yourself on those Questions?

Answer to each of these Questions regularly – It will help you to avoid the Pitfalls: Sloth, Self, Sex and Silver!

Find a Person that you can be Accountable to and the Almighty God will help you in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

Hebrews 1:9 says – Thou hast loved Righteousness, and hated Iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the Oil of Gladness above thy Fellows.

I Pray for you that as you live Holy; may you begin to do Exploits for God in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

When you Please the Lord, absolutely Nothing shall be Impossible for you in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

I know that if you are Ordained or a Graduate of Bible College or School of Disciples (SOD); then you must be Born Again.

ALTAR CALL

But just in case that there is anybody here who has not given their lives to the Lord Jesus Christ; Acts 3:26 says: Unto you first God, having raised up His Son Jesus, sent Him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his Iniquities

If there is any Iniquities in your Heart, God cannot bless you.

But if you can repent today and give your Life to the Lord Jesus Christ; the Almighty God sent Jesus Christ to bless you.

Wherever you are, can we all rise in the Name of Jesus!

If you have not given your Life to Jesus Christ, can you put your Right Hand on your Chest and say::

Master Jesus, Holy God, Emmanuel – I am sorry for all my sins.

I am sorry Oh God, forgive me all my sins in the Name of Jesus; Cleanse me, write my name Inn the Book of Life.

You said that if I confess with my mouth and believe in my Heart; God will have Mercy.

And for those of you who has given your Life to the Lord; just say this:

My Father, my Father; help me to know You more, help me to live Holy in the Name of Jesus.

As I live Holy God, I receive Exploits to serve You in the Name of Jesus..

I decree and declare by Your Grace Oh God that I will live Holy in the Name of Jesus.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Let us sing this Song/Hymn – The First and Last Stanza:

When we walk with the Lord
In the Light of His Word,
What a Glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His Good Will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will Trust and Obey.

Refrain:

Trust and Obey,
For there’s no other Way
To be happy in Jesus, But to Trust and Obey.

Then in Fellowship Sweet
We will sit at His Feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the Way;
What He says we will do,
Where He sends we will go;
Never fear, only Trust and Obey.

[Refrain]

CLOSING PRAYER

I Pray for you today in the Name that is above every other names – That as you live Holy; may you begin to do Exploits for the Almighty God in the Name of Jesus.

The Almighty God – The God of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) shall deliver you from Silver, shall deliver you from Laziness, shall deliver you from Idleness, shall deliver you from Yourself, shall deliver you from Sex in the Name of Jesus.

By the Special Grace of God, you will not lie to Yourself in the Name of Jesus.

You will live Holy, you will live Pure and the Lord will use you for His Glory.

In the Name of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

Can Somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

Look at two (2) or three (3) People and say: Live Holy so that you can do Exploits for the Almighty God!

God Bless You!!!
