In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
And well; let somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!
Wave at one (1) or two (2) People and say: Happy Easter; God bless you!
And then you may Please be seated!
Now, we all know that this is Easter Sunday and we should actually be on the field winning Souls. But we will go as soon as we finish.
… So, we will be very brief
We will read: Revelations 1:18 – I am He that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of Hell and of Death.
The Theme for our little talk is: “DESTINED TO WIN”.
How many Winners are here?
Let me hear you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!
Jesus Christ was speaking in Revelations 1:18 and He said: I am He that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of Hell and of Death.
Destined to Win – Two (2) important words here: Destined and Win!
- The word “Destined” is a Verb as you know from the word Destiny.
… Destiny is a Now!
You are not here by accident – Before you are born, God had a Plan for your Life.
In Jeremiah 1: 4:5; God said: Before I formed thee, I knew thee. While you are yet in your mother’s womb, I have already settled what you are going to become!
So, there is something called “Destiny” – You are not just born by accident; God has a Purpose for your Life and it is a very Good Purpose.
In Jeremiah 29:11; He said: I know the thoughts that I think towards you; thoughts of Good, not of Evil that you might have an “Expected End”.
… That “Expected End” is what is called “DESTINY”.
And so, for that Good Purpose of God for your Life; I decree will come to Pass in Jesus Name – Amen!
Destiny is a very Powerful Force – It Preserves the one who is Destined – It will make sure that it doesn’t matter what the enemies may try; the enemies won’t succeed because Destiny will be Pulling you towards a Particular Goal.
Take for Instance:
I. Moses – Moses was destined to deliver the children of Israel out of Egypt.
So when he was born, even though death was waiting for him; he was Preserved.
And Destiny has a way of maneuvering you – Moving you in some cases (Mysterious Ways) towards that Goal.
I mean imagine Moses who was going to deliver Israel out of Egypt ending up being trained by Pharaoh – He ate Pharaoh’s food, slept in Pharaoh’s house, attended the “Best University” known in those days in Egypt.
… In the Land and in the home of the enemy!
II. Or can you consider several other examples you find – For example David, who was destined to be King.
If you read 1 Samuel 16: 1-End – He was anointed to be King and in a “Miraculous Way”. He ended up in the Palace.
Oh, he was there Playing the Harp but he was there learning how to be King.
Destiny will move you like in the case of David – The Lion attacked him, the Lion died; the Bear attacked him, the Bear died.
Why? – You can’t die because there is a Destiny waiting for you.
So, I’m assuring somebody here today or reading now on the Label of DMC: It doesn’t matter what the enemies may try; you will reach your Goal – Amen.
- The Second (2nd) word there is “WIN”.
When we talk about “Win”; we are talking about Competition.
You know, when you are running a race and somebody comes first; so we called him the Winner.
Or you are Boxing and the fellow who succeeded in knocking down the other fellow such that the fellow can’t get up again or you beat him so many times that he couldn’t reply – You call him the Winner!
But “Win” can also come when you fight a battle, when you fight in a war and you are Victorious; then we call you the Winner.
Now, Life is a combination of Competition and Warfare.
You go to the market for instance, you are a Market Woman, you are there competing. You have your wares, several other People are selling the same things and People come to the Market to buy – It is competition between the two (2) of you.
When you leave home and said: God, let me sell today?
Do you know what you are Praying?
Let the other People don’t sell until I have finished my own selling.
… It is a serious kind of Prayer but that is the Prayer we Pray everyday.
You are working in an Office, there is Competition because there will be Promotion and there will be several People who has the same Qualifications and one will be Promoted before the other.
You know at least in those days, when I used to be in the University and we say that the Cut Off Marks for Admission shall we say 250 marks.
You find out that by the time you get to 251, the number of People that you have space for left is 10 and the number of People who have the Cut Off Marks of 250 can be 10,000 and you can only take 10 more.
… Life is a Competition.
But much more than that: Life is a Warfare – Don’t let anybody deceive you.
If you are not fighting any battle at all; it is because you are not anything and you don’t want to become anything. The moment you begin to make Progress, get ready for Warfare.
… But you are going to win!
Some of you don’t realised how much battle you are fighting otherwise when I say that you will win; your Amen suppose to be louder!
If you know how many times that you slept that the enemies does not want you to wake up? – When I say that you will win; you will say: Amen!
The Bible itself says that we are More Than Conqueror.
Do you know the meaning of that?
Many People think: More Than Conqueror means that we are greater than the one who conquers – That is true!
But it also means that I’m going to fight more than one war!
I have said it before that if all that you have is a Second (2nd) Hand Bicycle; two (2) Chairs and one (1) trouser; you don’t need Bodyguards – Nobody is going to steal from you. What are they going to Steal?
But the moment that your car is increasing from one (1) to two (2); visit Ikoyi and you will see the kind of walls round the houses.
… The More you are blessed; the Greater the enemies you will attract!
But in the Name of the One who called me; you will Win – Amen.
The Bible made it clear – Jeremiah 1:19 says: They will fight against you but they won’t overcome.
In Isaiah 54:15; it says: They will gather together against you.
God said it, but He said: Those who gathers against you will fall for your sake – Amen.
Isaiah 54:17 said: Weapons will be formed; it is only that the weapons formed against you shall not Prosper – Amen.
… That is what the Bible says – It didn’t say that they won’t form weapons. They will be formed but He said: Against you my Child; He said whatever they formed shall not Prosper.
He says in Isaiah 41:10-13; it says: Listen, I’m going to Help you. He says all those who are incensed against you will be ashamed and confounded. You will seek for them and you won’t find them – Amen.
… You are destined to Win!
What are you Destined to Win and what has this got to do with Easter Sunday?
It is because you are destined to win only because Jesus Christ was destined to win.
He said in Matthew 20: 18-19 – He says they are going to kill me but I will rise on the third (3rd) Day.
… And on the third (3rd) Day, He rose!
He said in the Bible Text that I read to you – He said: Listen, I am the One who was dead, now I am alive and I am alive forever.
How does that affect your Destiny?
Ephesians 1:4 says: Before the Foundation of the Earth; you have been chosen in Him.
You are chosen in the One who reigns forever; you are chosen in the One who said I am More Than Conqueror; you are chosen in the One who said at My Name, all knees must bow.
Before the Foundation of the Earth, I have said it again and again; it doesn’t matter how hard we try, not everybody will become a Christian – You can Preach, Fire can be coming out of your mouth; People will hear you and still say that it is a Good Sermon but I Preferred to remain the way I am.
Why? – They were not chosen from the Foundation.
Whether you believed it or not; the Bible says clearly: God has created the wicked for destruction – Some People are made to fail.
But I believed that the one listening to me this morning or reading now on the Label of DMC; is Destined for Heaven – Amen!
If you are one of them shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!
I will remind you of a Story and we will close because there is a Choice for you in the whole Show.
You have to choose whether you want to belong to the Winners or you want to belong to the Losers.
… God will give you an opportunity to decide.
I told you a Story before of someone who came to me and say: Sir, I have heard that you are a Prophet.
I say that I am not a Prophet but a Pastor.
He says that but we heard that whatever you say come to Pass.
… I said: God has been Faithful!
He said: Can you tell me about my future?
I said that is easy – You just answer a question and I will tell you your future.
He said what is the question?
I said: Are you Born Again? Are you a Child of God?
He said No and I said that your future will be terrible.
He said: How do you know? You have not asked for my name; you have not even Prayed!
I said there is no Need – It is written, Isaiah 3:11 says: Say ye to the wicked, it shall be ill with him.
… You are not a Child of God, your future will be terrible.
He says: Suppose I said I’m a Child of God, I am Born Again?
I can tell you that your future will be Glorious.
He said: How do you know?
It is written in Isaiah 3:10 – Say ye to the Righteous, it shall be well with him.
… The Choice is yours!
Christ in you, the Hope of Glory!
You surrender your Life to Jesus Christ; He comes to dwell in you and there is only thing you can expect – Glory!
That is why I always say with all confidence that: My future will be alright. What about yours?
ALTAR CALL
If you are not Born Again and you want your future to be alright; you want to be destined to win; you better come and surrender your Life to Jesus Christ now.
It is not a question of just saying it; it is a question of your deciding.
If you surrender your Life to Jesus Christ; He will save your Soul; He will include you among those who are destined to win.
So, I’m going to count from one (1) to seven (7) – If you want to give your Life to Jesus Christ, you better come now because the Choice is yours.
… I’m counting now…
You need not wait for anybody – It is a Personal Choice. It has nothing to do with my friends, my relatives. If you want to surrender your Life, come now!
You better decide today because tomorrow might be too late and there might be no other opportunity for you to decide.
Thank You Father – Keep coming.
Now, those of you who are already Infront, cry to the Almighty God: Ask Him to have Mercy on you, ask Him to save your Soul, Promise Him that from now on, you will serve Him and do His Will.
The rest of us; Please let us stretch our hands towards those who are Infront – Let us intercede for them that the One who save our Souls will save their own Souls also. Pray that God will give them Genuine Salvation today so that they too will be serving God for the rest of their lives.
Let’s Pray for them Brethrens for just two (2) minutes.
Thank You Father.
In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
PRAYER FOR SALVATION
Saviour, we want to bless Your Holy Name, we want to Thank You for Your Words, we want to Thank You for these People who has come forward to surrender their lives to You.
Father, Please receive them in Jesus Name, save their Souls Lord, let Your Blood wash away their sins, write their names in the Book of Life.
And from now on Father, whenever they cry to You, let it be well with them – When they cry, answer them by Fire.
And I Pray Lord God Almighty that their own future will be okay too.
In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!
Now, I want to rejoice with those of you who has come forward.
In a moment, the Counsellors will attend to you – They will collect your names, addresses and Prayer Request so that I can continue to Pray for you.
Now, I want you to stay where you are for a moment because I want you to be Part of the Prayers we are about to Pray now.
The rest of us; are you sure God will answer you today? – YES!
Then, let me hear you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!
Raise your voice to the Almighty God loud and clear and say: Father, my future is in your Hands; let it be alright!
Open your mouth and cry to the Almighty God.
… Even everyday of my Life is in your Hands; let it be alright!
Thank you so much for staying all through to read.
