DAY 2: RCCG 2021 SPECIAL HOLY GHOST SERVICE (PSF HOUR)

THEME: GOD BLESS YOU – PART 3 (I WILL LIFT UP MY EYES).

MINISTERING: PASTOR EZEKIEL A. ODEYEMI (CONTINENTAL OVERSEER, WEST AND CENTRAL AFRICA, AGO EDUCATION AND TRAINING AND PIC RCCG REGION 10, ABUJA)

TOPIC: TIME MANAGEMENT – PART 2.

DATE: 5TH MARCH, 2021

Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!

We are continuing in our Series on “Time Management.”

DMC NOTES: We can access the Part 1 of this Series as Preached and Produced by DMC during the PSF Hour of the RCCG January 2021 HGS only on the Platform of DMC via this Link:

And it is important in this Series that you bear in Mind the following things about Time.

It is important you know how to measure how effective you are in Managing Time.

There are two (2) Quotes that I will like to start with: One by Charles Richards and the other by Henry David Thoreau.

According to Charles Richards, he said:

Don’t be fooled by the Calendar. There are only as many days in the Year as you make use of. One man gets only a week’s Value out of a Year while another man gets a full Year’s Value out of a week.

… Isn’t that interesting?

In other words, it is Possible that throughout the whole Year; the amount of Time you have actually used Productively is not more than one (1) week. Out of the fifty two (52) weeks of the Year; you have only been Productive for one (1) week.

Whereas another Person within one (1) week; he has actually accomplished what could not be achieved in one (1) Year.

… So, it all depends on how each Person utilises Time. It depends on your Mastering of Time!

That is what determines how effective you are in the Game of Life.

I want you to know that God has given Time to everyone in the same Quantity and that is why this Second (2nd) Quote is also very important and I quote:

It is not enough to be busy; so are the ants. The question is: What are we busy about?

Henry David Thoreau, an American Philosopher and Writer said: It is not enough to be busy; so are the ants. But the question is: What are we busy about?

Many People are busy doing nothing – That is why I will need to ask you some very important questions that can measure your effectiveness!

And I want you to take note of these questions:

1. Are the task you work on during the day; are they ones with the Highest Priority?

You may answer that question with:

I. “Not at All”

II. “Rarely”

III. “Sometimes”

IV. “Often”

V. “Very Often”

2. Do you find yourself completing Tasks at the Last Minute or asking for Extensions?

Do that happen to you all the time? Does it happen at all?

3. Do you Set aside Time for Planning and Scheduling.
4. Do you know how much Time you are spending on the various Jobs that you do?
5. How often do you find yourself dealing with Interruptions?
6. Do you see Goal Setting as a way to decide what Task and Activities you should work on?

You know we spoke on Goal Setting the other time – Part 1 during the PSF Hour of January 2021 HGS.

7. Do you leave Contingency Time in Schedule to deal with the Unexpected?

In other words, do you Plan your Time in such a way that you are still Flexible around some issues?

8. Do you know whether the Task you are working on are High, Medium or of Low Value?
9. When you are given a New Assignment, do you analyse it for Importance and Prioritise it accordingly?
10. Are you Stressed about Deadlines and Commitments?

Does that happens to you rarely or Often or “Very Often”.

11. Does distractions often keep you away from working on Critical Task?
12. Do you have to take work home in order to get it done?

For some People; their house is an Extension of their office. Often, they have to carry files upon files home so that there is no even time for them to relax at home because they have not Planned Relaxation Time into their Time Management.

13. Do you Prioritise your To-Do List or Action Program?
14. Do you regularly confirm your Priorities with your Boss?

What actually is a Priority to your Boss is that what is a Priority to you?

… That’s important!

15. Before you take on a Task; do you check if the results will be worth the time you put in?

All these are questions that you must be able to answer and you must be able to allot time for them!

And allotting time for them will show us whether you are actually managing your Time well; whether you are effective in Time Management.

And I want you to listen to these questions over and over again so that you will be able to respond to them appropriately!

DMC NOTES: You may avail yourself the opportunity to download the Audio of this Message from the DMC YouTube using this Link:

https://discoverymediacrew.com/Audio-Time-Management-Pastor-E-A-Odeyemi-PSF-Hour

And may I say: Be Truthful to yourself when you are answering these questions because in our “Next Episode; we will be looking at how these questions will help you to know how to manage Time and to better deal with the issue of Time.

DMC NOTES: Kindly keep following us @ DMC as we will God’s willing keep on turning in the Subsequent Series of this Time Management Series.

In the meantime, don’t forget the Prayers that we started with the other time when we were looking at this Time Management.

In Psalms 90:12 – That very important Prayer; tells us exactly about Time because the issue of Time has always been a “Main Discuss” from Generation to Generation.

So, in that Passage; the Bible says: So teach us to number our days that we may apply our hearts unto Wisdom.

Only the Wise will give Priority to how they manage Time.

… And I want you to be one of such!

Let us Pray together!

CLOSING PRAYER

Blessed Father, we appreciate You and we honour Your Majesty.

We give You Glory and Appreciation and Honour and Glory for all you have done.

Daddy, we Pray for everyone who has listened to this Particular Message or reading now on the Label of DMC; that you will help us to truthfully answer these questions and that these questions will help us to be Truthful with ourselves and to teach us how to be effective in our Time Management.

Thank You Heavenly Father; Blessed be Your Name because we know that our lives will Change for the better in this very Year of Restoration and Recovery – We shall recover all our “Lost Glories” even as we even learn to Manage Time much better.

Thank You Daddy.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Thank you so much for staying all through to read.

DAY 1: RCCG 2021 SPECIAL HOLY GHOST SERVICE (PSF HOUR)

THEME: GOD BLESS YOU – PART 3 (I WILL LIFT UP MY EYES).

MINISTERING: PASTOR BELEMINA OBUNGE (INTERCONTINENTAL YOUTH PASTOR, RCCG AND COORDINATOR RIVER’S FAMILY )

TOPIC: HIGHER GROUND.

DATE: 4TH MARCH, 2021

BIBLE TEXT: JOB 22: 28-30

Wao, today we are talking about: HIGHER GROUND!

And I do realised that each and everyone listening to me or reading now on the Label of DMC, desires to go Higher in Life.

It is my Prayer that as we briefly go into God’s Words; for each and everyone of us without exceptions, we shall not stay down in Life – Amen; we shall go Higher in the Name of Jesus Christ – Amen.

OPENING PRAYER

In the Name of Jesus Christ, we just thank you for times like this when we can determine and resolve to go Higher in Life.

I asked that every Mentallity Pulling one down in Life be uprooted in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

By the Power of Your Words; each and everyone of us that hears my voice or read now on the Label of DMC shall begin to move from one level to another, shall move from Glory to Glory, from Victory to Victory.

They shall go Higher in the Name of Jesus Christ.

Thank You Father for it is sealed and settled.

In Jesus Glorious Name we Pray – Amen!

… And I want you to shout Higher Ground – HIGHER GROUND!

You see the Word of God tells us in Job 22: 28-30 – The Bible says:

28. Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.
29. When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble Person.
30. He shall deliver the Island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the Pureness of thine hands.

You see, when we talk about Higher Grounds:

1. In the first (1st) instance we are talking about an “Improved Situation”.

When you declared that your situation must improve and when your situation improves.

I’m declaring unto someone listening to me or reading now on the Label of DMC; your situation will improve in the Name of Jesus – Amen; because you are going to Higher Ground – Amen.

2. When we are talking about Higher Ground, you are not just talking about “Improved Situation”; we are talking about an “Increased Status”.

When you determine that enough is enough; my Status must increased. I’m tired of this Level, I am going Higher.

I am declaring to someone listening to me or reading now on the Label of DMC; the Level you are now is the lowest you shall ever be in Life – Amen.

Before this time next week; you will have a Testimony that you are going Higher, Increased Status, Higher Grounds – Receive it in the Name of Jesus Christ (Amen).

3. When we talk of Higher Ground; we are not just talking of “Improved Situation”; we are not just talking of “Increased Status”; we are also talking of “Inclined Up”.

… I Lift Up my eyes unto the Hills, from whence cometh my Help? – That is looking unto Higher Ground.

I declare Beloved Brethren that you shall no longer look down – Amen.

Those that look down are Pull done!

You shall not look down, you shall not be Pull down in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

You shall not look around – You know, when People look around, they get distracted.

But look at David in Psalms 121 – I will Lift Up my eyes unto the Hills, from whence cometh my Help?

So, I urge you to: Look Up for your Season to be Lifted Up has come in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

You see – Proverbs 24:16 says: A Just Man may fall seven times; but he is not staying down

Why? – Because he has resolved that he must be Lifted Up.

You can also listen to the audio here: Higher Ground – Pastor Belemina

And I declared unto someone that hears my voice or reading now on the Label of DMC; no matter how many times you may have gone down; because this is your Season to be Lifted Up, to move on to Higher Ground; you are going Higher in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

When we talk of Higher Ground; what does that mean?

1. In the first instance, it means that there is a Lifting.

David has some challenges in Life – He has times of depression and in one of those times of depressions in Psalms 40: 1-3; David said: I waited Patiently unto the Lord and He inclined unto me, He heard my cry and He brought me out of the horrible pit.

That means that he was Lifted out of the Horrible Pit; out of the Miry Clay and set my feet upon a Rock and establish my Going.

I am declaring to someone who has been in the Pit – You have been finding yourself sinking. By the Power of God’s Words, as you inclined to the Lord, you set your eyes unto Him; by His Hands, the Lord shall Lift you in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

I Stand by the Power of God’s Words because the Word tells us in Psalms 47:6 – The Lord Lifts Up the Meek and cast the Wicked down.

I declare and decree: Your Season to be Lifted Up has come in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

And where are you Lifted Up to?

You are Lifted Up to Higher Grounds.

And you see, one thing is clear – In Psalms 113: 7-8; the Bible says: He raiseth the Poor out of the dust, He lifted the Needy out of the dunghill that He may set him up with Princess; even the Princes of his People.

I speak for the kind of lifting that you have never expected, that will bring you unto Higher Grounds; the time has come for you to experience that Lifting in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

2. In the Second instance; Higher Grounds talks about a Leverage.

You see; a Leverage means that are taking advantage of an opportunity!

You see, when you are born into a Royal Family, when you are born into Royalty; you have an advantage of being a King and you are not struggling for it.

By the reason of being born into Royalty; you have a Leverage of being Lifted Up to Higher Status.

And the Word of God tells us that you are a Chosen Generation, a Royal Priesthood, a Holy Nation, a Peculiar People.

By the reason of the Royal Network; I speak into someone here listening or those reading now on the Label of DMC: YOU ARE LIFTED – Amen; Receive a Lifting in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

You see, Isaac received a Lifting.

Why? – Because he has a Leverage. He is the son of Abraham.

And the Lord has already Promised Abraham in Genesis 22: 16-18; He said: Look Abraham; in Blessings I will bless you. He said: Look, I will not just bless you, I will Multiply your Seeds.

… Check that out: The Seeds of Abraham has an opportunity!

Leverage! – By reason of being connected to Abraham, He said I will bless your Seeds, I will Multiply your Seeds.

And so Isaac because he has the opportunity of being connected to Abraham in Genesis 26; the Lord told him that by the reason of the Covenant that I have made with Abraham, the Lord said to Isaac that I will make your Seeds to Multiply.

He said: I am going to bless you because you are connected to Abraham!

Beloved Brethren, let us understand who you are, understand your Identity.

The Word of God tells me that because you are Part of Abraham’s Seed in Genesis 3: 13-14; the Bible says that the Blessings of Abraham shall come upon you.

I declare and decree: As many as are connected by the Power of God’s Word through Jesus Christ that you might receive the Promise of the Spirit – Receive a Lifting in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

By the Power of Leverage, receive a Lifting in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

3. In the Third (3rd) instance, moving on to Higher Ground doesn’t just come through a Lifting, it doesn’t just come through a Leverage but do you realised that moving on to Higher Ground can come through a Linking?

Because you are connected with the Right Person; you can be Lifted.

Look at Joseph incidence – Joseph was out there sweating in Prison but because he was connected to the Buckler of the King; at the Point in time God allowed a Problem to exist and the Buckler that has forgotten Joseph; by the reason of the Problem, he remembered Joseph.

And the Word of God tells us in Genesis 41: 9-14 – At the Point in time, the Buckler remembered Joseph.

And he said: Look, there is somebody in Prison that I have been linked to in times Past; He is able to be a Solution to these Problem.

I am speaking to someone: Those that has forgotten you for Good, shall remember you for Good in the Name of Jesus Christ – Amen.

Because you have been connected with them; there shall be a Lifting; they shall connect you to the Places that mattered in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

Do you realised that was what happened to David when Saul has a Problem.

It was a Servant that said in 1 Samuel 16: 18-19; he said that there is one boy in the wilderness, he is cunny in Playing; that boy is unique in the way he does his thing, the Lord is with him because David was connected, he was link to that Servant.

He was called for and that is how David got to the King’s Palace.

I am declaring to someone listening to my voice or reading now on the Label of DMC; in a way you have never imagined; by the reason of a connection; you are moving to an “Increased Level” in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

Within the next three (3) Months; by the reason of the connection, you shall have a Testimony – Amen; in areas you don’t expect, your names shall be mentioned and you shall move to an “Increased Status” – Amen.

Naaman was a Soldier but he had a Problem.

The Bible said that Naaman was the Captain of the Host; had a Problem and because he was connected to one girl called the Maid. Her name was not even mentioned in 2 Kings Chapter 5.

He was connected to that Maid and that Maid became a Blessing to his Life – She connected him to Elisha.

I am speaking to someone: That someone that you are linked to shall be an Instrument of Deliverance upon your Life – Amen. They shall Lift you, they shall bring forth a Lifting from that Status that has weighed you down in the Name of Jesus – Amen. You are moving on to Higher Grounds – Amen.

4. Higher Ground also come not through just a Lifting, not just through a Linkage but through Labour or Hard Work.

The Word of God makes it clear that Daniel was Preferred above others.

Why? – He had an Excellent Spirit.

Another Version will tell us about Daniel 6:3 – He distinguished himself.

… The way he works, he distinguish himself.

You see there is a Labour that brings Profit – Proverbs 14:23.

I. There is a way that you will work that the hands of the diligent shall be made fat.

II. There is a way that you will work that will lead you to a Greater Status.

Because Daniel distinguished himself; the King said: Wao, who shall I make the President of these three (3)?

Daniel stood out by the reason of his Labour.

Lift Up your hands: And I decree by the Power of God’s Words; as you Labour with those hands, your Labour shall never be in Vain – Amen! You shall distinguish yourself, you shall excel in the works of your hands – Amen.

By the reason of Excellence in your work; you are Lifted Up to Higher Grounds – Amen.

Difference in Status, Increased Status; receive it in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

Oh, don’t forget that the Word of God made it clear in Isaiah 65:23 that: You shall not labour in vain.

I decree: Every Strong Holds of Fruitless Labour be banished from your Life in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

Your Season has come: Higher Ground!

5. Finally my Beloved Brethren; Higher Ground also come not through just a Lifting, not just through a Linkage, not just Labour or Hard Work; a Lifting Up to Higher Ground comes through Loyalty.

When you are Loyal to him whom God has given the Privilege of you working with; you are Positioned for a Lifting to Higher Ground.

Elisha was loyal to Elijah – In 2 Kings 2: 5-10; even though others were laughing at him; Elisha told Elijah – As the Lord liveth, I will not leave you. Wherever you go, I am going with you, wherever you hide, I will hide with you.

… That is Loyalty!

And the Word of God is very clear in Proverbs 28:20 – A Faithful Man will abound with Blessings.

You see: When you are Faithful just as Joshua was to Moses; you have Positioned yourself for the Next Level!

You see when you see a Faithful Man abound with Blessings; the Word of God tells us in Proverbs 10:22 – The Blessings of the Lord maketh Rich and added no sorrow.

I want to encourage you Beloved Brethren: Be Faithful to God’s Words, be Faithful to the Almighty God who has Positioned you wherever you are. Be Faithful in His works, determine more than ever that no matter the challenges that come my way, I am holding fast unto the Lord.

When you are like Daniel that determined not to defy himself inspite of Pressures; you have Positioned yourself for a Lifting Up to Higher Ground.

ALTAR CALL

You may have found yourself compromising out of Pressures; you may have found yourself falling out of situations and circumstances; the time has come for you to resolve that: Lord, I may have missed it in times Past – Like Gehazi, I have given room to Greed in one way or the other; I have betrayed like Judas.

But today, I am connecting with You Lord. I want to put my ways Right with You Lord.

I want you to determine more than ever as from this moment: Lord, I will stay with You, I will stay connected with You, I will stay loyal to You. My Season for a Lifting, to a Higher Ground has come – It is not tomorrow, it is now!

I urge you Beloved Brethren, by the reason of the Words that you have heard today; resolve more than ever: Take advantage of the Leverage of being a Child of God, most especially being a Member of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), take advantage of your linking with the Almighty God.

May you never miss out of your opportunity in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

As you work diligently, as you determine to be Faithful; I decree and I declare by the Power of God’s Words that the Lord shall Lift you – Be lifted from the snare of the Fowler, be lifted from the Noisome Pestilence – Amen.

Your Season for a Lifting Up has come and I want you to declare: I AM LIFTED!

CLOSING PRAYER

Father, I Thank You for Your Words You have sent to Your Sons and Daughters.

I Thank You for their Season, for a Lifting has come.

As many that has been down; I declare that from now on, receive your Lifting in the Name of Jesus.

Thank You Lord because it is settled.

Every Strongholds that has weighed them down, is broken in the Name of Jesus.

The Chains are broken and you are Lifted.

Thank You Father.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

And I’m declaring unto you: By the reason of your Lifting, before the next seven (7) days; you will have “Outstanding Testimonies”; the Favour of God shall envelope you; the Glory of God shall shine upon you; your Life shall be a Life of Testimonies; your Life shall be a Life of “Joy Unspeakable” and when People see you dancing and rejoicing – They will ask: Who did it? And you will answer: Jesus, Oh my God; waooo!!!

God Bless You!

Thank you so much for staying all through to read.
