If You are Willing and Obedient -Bishop Sunny Faith Ugbah

1. God does not force any man. He simply says if you are willing and obedient… Because you are willing and obedient, you will eat the fruits of 2021.

2. Everything God is gives to His people is on a ticket of faith (Hebrews 11;6)

To diligently seek Him is not an easy task. Faith is diligence. If you are not diligent, you cannot work the work of Faith without diligence.

In religion there is no power, but an act! The heart is not involved. Religion is man doing something for his own Benefits, while spiritually is asking God: what will you have me do. This year something good will burst out of your life. .

Spirituality is hardwork.and heart work
Jeremiah 30:21 KJV: And their nobles shall be of themselves, and their …
For who is this that engageth his heart to draw near unto me? saith Jehovah
Not many are committed to birthing a revival. It has to do with sacrifice and a heart connected to God.

As we seek Him we will find him in the Name of Jesus Christ.

Jeremiah 29:13
13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart
This year our

Zechariah 10;1
10 Ask ye of the Lord rain in the time of the latter rain; so the Lord shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field.

Our responsibility is to ask and God’s job is to give. If you ask he will give, Ifbyiu don’t ask, you cannot receive )Mathew7:7-9)

Ezekiel 36:36-38 KJV Then the heathen that are left round about you shall know that I the Lord build the ruined places, and plant that that was desolate: I the Lord have spoken it, and I will do it.

37 Thus saith the Lord God; I will yet for this be enquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock.

38 As the holy flock, as the flock of Jerusalem in her solemn feasts; so shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of men: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

When people come to Jesus, sometimes He withdraws. Like the case of the woman whom Jesus said the children’s food cannot be given to dogs.

Faith is the hand that receives. If faith can be activated
You must get to the point when you are emptied of every doubt.

Billy Graham withdrew and settled many things with God. Thereafter his ministry spiralled round the world.

You should not be moving from.olace to place, embracing every wind of doctrine. A Double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

Everything about God is by faith, not sight. You must believe the word of God by faith as well as our healing.

Faith is not tangible. Let faith be activated that God hears and answers prayers.

Don’t approach God with a crowd or church mentality. He wants to hear you personally.

He says come boldly and obtain mercy in the time of need. (Hebrews 4:16).

3. The place of the Holy Spirit
A great event does not equal great impact.

Luke 5:17 KJV And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them.

This is the cutting edge! It is only the power of the spirit of God that can break the power of darkness.

Darkness represents everything that could go wrong.

In all our services, there will be tangible evidence of God’s manifold presence.

Yikes will be destroyed and burdens will be destroyed in the Name of Jesus!

John 7:37-39 KJV In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.

38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)

There is a spirit within and the spirit upon

The spirit within is received at new birth but the spirit upon is one that is to be filled from time
to time

Acts 2:1-4

And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

Acts 4:29+31 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
30 By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.
31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.

The sport upon is for service. It is the anointing.

Isaiah 32:9-15 KJV Rise up, ye women that are at ease; hear my voice, ye careless daughters; give ear unto my speech.
10 Many days and years shall ye be troubled, ye careless women: for the vintage shall fail, the gathering shall not come.
11 Tremble, ye women that are at ease; be troubled, ye careless ones: strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins.
12 They shall lament for the teats, for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.
13 Upon the land of my people shall come up thorns and briers; yea, upon all the houses of joy in the joyous city:
14 Because the palaces shall be forsaken; the multitude of the city shall be left; the forts and towers shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks;
15 Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness be a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.

When God’s people begin to take initiative there must be a change

Darkness rules when it is unchallenged

Zechariah 4:6-9 KJV Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.

7 Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.
8 Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you.

I speak grace upon every aspect of our work and career in the Name of Jesus.

In Genesis 1:3, darkness ruled until God took over and call forth light! 

The highest form of prayer is when you engage the holy spirit in the lives of others and the Church.

We are here to handover the church to the owner. Only God can anoint His works.

Isaiah 44:3-4 KJV For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring:

4 And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses.

We must be thirsty for him tonight. Let us engage the holy spirit through prayers (Acts 13-16).   As we pray tonight the Lord will give us encounters.

i.)  Lord give us the souls of men in this city (Acts 18:10) The holy spirit will give us visibility in this land in the Name of Jesus! There is a difference between performance and perception. May God change every negative persecution against us. God will give us goodwill in the Name of Jesus Christ.

ii) God will rebuild the terbernacle of David

iii) The Holy Spirit will convict people to be saved. John 16:8

iv.) We engage the ministry of the holy spirit in soul winning

V). God establish your people
vi. Lord give us unique signs and wonders . Acts 5:13-17

Vii. The word of God will hit its target in the lives of his people. May the heart of people be opened to receive the word of GOD
