SERVING GOD AND THE INTEREST OF HIS KINGDOM PAYS THE UNMATCHABLE (Pt. 2A) || Bishop David Oyedepo

Serving God is a big-time business.

There is no match for the blessings of service anywhere under the sun.

Exodus 23:26 – “There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil.”

Serving God is Kingdom business with undeniable returns.

This is not serving your church or your pastor but serving God as a business.

You can’t get rewarded when you are out of service!

The end-time Church is ordained as the Church of giants; believers who will stay on course till God’s purposes for their lives come into manifestation.

There are no great people in the kingdom; it is the backing of the great God that makes ordinary people great in the Kingdom.

Every aspect of Kingdom advancement endeavours is highly profitable.

When you pray Kingdom advancement prayers secretly, God’s sworn verdict is to reward you openly.

When you commit to God, He keeps changing your story financially and when what moves God moves you, He keeps moving you forward.

Platforms for Kingdom Advancement Endeavours

  1. Targeting specific souls and families to bring to Christ.

John 1:40-46  40 One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.

41 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.

42 And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.

43 The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me.

44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.

-We can target families on prayers.

-Your testimony is your strongest message.

John 4:29 – “Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?”

– Engage the love sickle to rescue souls, not as a religious practice.

Daniel 12:3 – “And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.”

  • Start somewhere.
  • Passionately inviting your contacts to come to church.

1 Samuel 2:20 – “And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, The LORD give thee seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to the LORD. And they went unto their own home.”

Revelation 22:17-18 – 17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:

– Bringing souls to Church attracts God’s honour to your life.

For your Stewardship to Qualify for Rewards:

  1. You must serve God cheerfully.

Deuteronomy 28:48 – “Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.”

– Serving God with joy is the most suitable approach to stewardship.

– Where your joy stops is where your reward stops.

– Don’t see serving God as a burden; see it as a privilege.

  • Serve God willingly.

1 Corinthians 9:17- “For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.”

2 Corinthians 8:12 – “For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.”

– Murmuring while serving does not bring rewards.

– Let your service to God come from the heart, not as a show-off to people.

Returns in Serving God

1. Health and Vitality.

-Seed bearing helps God to keep us fit

2corinthians 5:14 – 20 – 14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:

15 And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.

16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.

17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.

-No matter the heat on this earth you’d be exempted.

-Reconciling people back to God makes you an ambassador.

-A faithful ambassador is entitled to healthy living.

Proverb13:17 – “A wicked messenger falleth into mischief: but a faithful ambassador is health.”

-Engaging in kingdom advancement endeavour makes you an ambassador.

-From this stirring of water sickness and diseases will leave you alone.

-Health is the most valuable asset to man.

2. It secures supernatural breakthroughs.

Proverbs 23:23 – “Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.”

Luke 5:5 – “And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.”

(Luke 5:8)

-Serving God in truth and in deed procures supernatural breakthrough

-Serving God always changes people story

Mark4:26 – “And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;

When your cloud is full your rain will fall

Ecclesiastics 11:3 – “If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth: and if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be.”

Covenant Day of Fruitfulness Ministration

– All provisions of redemption are delivered on the platform of the covenant, and accessible through genuine repentance.

Philippines 4:19 – “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”

– Healing, deliverance, breakthrough and fruitfulness of our body, are all deliverable through covenant engagement.

Exodus 23:26 – “There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil.”

– God gives you fruitfulness as an inheritance and as a reward.

Its encounter with light that result to breakthrough

Deuteronomy 7:14 – “Thou shalt be blessed above all people: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle.”

You are entitled to fruitfulness on two platforms:

  1. When you become a child of God, fruitfulness becomes your inheritance.

 Psalms 127:3 – “Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.”  

  • when you serve God, fruitfulness becomes part of your reward.

Deuteronomy 28:4-8 – 4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.

5 Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.

6 Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out.

7 The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.

8 The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

Communion Ministration

– Anything you do with understanding gives way to outstanding results. -Do not partake of the communion as a snack, but with understanding.

-As you partake of the communion today, expect the passion-order of Christ to be transmitted to you.

-I declare the table set before as the flesh and blood of Jesus Christ.

-Let it deliver your desires!

-Whatever is unlike Jesus in your life clears way today!

-We’re empowered to live like Christ via the communion table

Note:

New birth is the start point for a life of fulfilment
